Chapter 104: I'm a local tyrant
Originally, Song Zheng was going to remind Gianna about the undead and the plague first, but since Medivan had already gone to Dalaran to warn Antonidas, if nothing else, Gianna would have heard Medivan's warning, and believed the prophet's words, so he didn't need to go to Gianna again, anyway, Gianna was not in any danger in this undead crisis.
After continuing to buy some supplies, Song Zheng left Dalaran as a merchant and began to go to Lordaeron, which was about to fall into the cusp of the storm.
There are many ways to get from Dalaran to Lordaeron, in fact, Dalaran and Lordaeron have always been very closely connected, and even most of the nobles of Lordaeron have real estate in the city of Dalaran, so there are often nobles who come here for vacation, which also leads to the development of transportation from Dalaran to Lordaeron.
Song Zheng is most lacking money at the moment, so he naturally chose the most comfortable one - taking a boat.
Lordaeron's royal capital is on the northern shore of Lake Lordammere, while Dalaran is on the southern shore of the lake, so boats from both places can often be seen passing by on Lake Lordammere.
Song Zheng naturally bought the most expensive and luxurious ticket, and put on a luxurious coat, which is said to have been designed by Lawrence, the most famous mage and costume designer in Dalaran, with the 'Cleaning Technique' magic on the clothes, which can keep it clean forever, and even has an improved version of the 'Illumination Technique', which can emit a dazzling golden light when needed, which is absolutely eye-catching.
Of course, its price is also frighteningly high, and it is known as the exclusive brand of local tyrants.
"This outfit is really worth its price......" When boarding the ship, feeling the eyes of the circle around him, Song Zheng couldn't help but be secretly proud, and at the same time, he stretched out his hands with ten huge gem rings very 'casually', which were not ordinary rings, but magic rings made up by mages, which generally came with simple defensive magic, and some would also come with attack magic such as fireball magic, and its price could only be described as amazing.
He is not afraid of being regarded as a vulgar tyrant, an ordinary person wants to quickly enter the top of society, the easiest way is to throw money, even if he is despised by those nobles as nouveau riche, but after all, he is still among the high-level circles.
Song Zheng hoped to meet Alsace on this trip, after all, that guy was the key person in this disaster, and almost everything about Lordaeron was related to it, since he was going to Lordaeron, it was naturally best to get close to Alsace first.
However, he was certainly not stupid enough to become a soldier like Cheng Yuan, and then waited tirelessly in the barracks for the opportunity to meet Arthas, and the method he chose was to quickly enter the upper echelons of Lordaeron's society.
As long as you can integrate into the high-level circles of Lordaeron, you may be able to meet Arthas at the ball of some aristocratic family.
As soon as he got on the ship, Song Zheng quickly discovered that the ship was very large and luxurious, not even worse than those luxury cruise ships on the earth, and it was obvious that the mages and nobles would definitely not treat themselves badly.
The only difference is that this is a sailboat, but it is said that the sails have magic attached to them, and they can sail fast even when there is no wind.
"Magic is really good, not only convenient, but also fuel-efficient...... Song Zheng somewhat understood why the human civilization in Azeroth had also appeared for thousands of years, but it had not been able to develop mechanized technology like on Earth.
After all, after having almost universal magic, a fool would study a coal-burning steam engine, let alone run to dig for oil.
The power of gold coins is infinite, when Song Zheng, who had the words 'I am a local tyrant' written on his forehead, got on the boat, there were immediately beautiful waiters who came forward to provide services attentively, and at the same time, several noble young women and young ladies were blushing and staring at him from time to time.
Only half an hour later, Song Zheng was already chatting and laughing with a group of nobles.
To his surprise, one of these nobles was a woman from the Fernand family.
"I wonder what relationship Philip, the Knight Captain of South Sea Town, has with you?" Song Zheng asked with some curiosity.
When he was in Southsea Town, the Philip was bent on pursuing Bridget, and even led his knights to follow her to the Alterac Mountains to exercise, but was scared away by the snow monster halfway, and later hid in Tarenmir and did not dare to return to Southsea Town.
"Philip? That's my younger brother, who has been a little unsafe in Nanhai lately, so he's already applied to be transferred to Andohar, where my mother's family is one of the top 10 families. The woman named Martina said with some smugness.
"Andohar ...... Your brother really knows how to choose a place. Song Zheng was a little speechless for a moment, and couldn't help but feel silent in his heart for that Philip, where he hid was not good, and he took the initiative to hide in Andohar.
In the coming crisis of the dead, the most devastated cities in Lordaeron are probably Andorjar and Stratholme!
"Andorhar is the second largest city in Lordaeron, but in terms of economy, it is estimated that it has already surpassed the royal capital to become the first, and the Knights of the Silver Hand are stationed there, absolutely safe." Martina laughed.
"Ahem...... It's safe enough...... Is Miss Martina going to Andohal this time? Song Zheng asked with a smile.
"Although Andohar is good, but it's too far away, I'm too lazy to go, I'm going to the royal capital of Lordaeron this time, isn't there going to be a paladin assessment recently, my mother asked me to see if there are any decent men." Saying this, Martina's face flushed slightly.
"Paladin's assessment?" Song Zheng couldn't help but be happy in his heart, Brigitte Abydis had also said that she would go to participate in the assessment of the paladin, maybe she was also in the royal capital of Lordaeron now, but she didn't have to ask about her whereabouts by herself.
"Yes, most of the people on this ship are going to watch the paladin assessment, this time of year is also the busiest time for Lordaeron, even more prosperous than the New Year's Day, sir, aren't you going to take advantage of the paladin assessment to go to the royal capital to do business?" Martina laughed.
"Haha, it's indeed the best time to do business when it's crowded, but I have so much money that I have nowhere to spend it, so I'm going to spend it this time." Song Zheng laughed and said, at the same time, attracting the attention of more nobles.
But his laughter soon ceased, as another group of people boarded the ship, and the one at the center of the crowd was none other than Edras Blackmore, who had recently gained popularity!
"It won't be so unlucky, I happened to be in the same boat as this guy......" Song Zheng touched his waist with a little weakness, and it was the thick stack of land deeds that were placed there.
