Chapter 237: Great Benefits (10,000 Words Big Chapter Asking for Subscription)

"Is there anything you can do, Draco?"

Zuo Si raised his head and looked at this guy who had been hiding from him since the beginning of school until now.

Because the crushing battle in the Slytherin common room completely left a lot of shadows in Malfoy's heart, so much so that as long as they met on weekdays, they would subconsciously turn around and flee.

He was curious about what this guy had to say when he suddenly mustered up the courage to run in front of him today.

"I want to talk to you, alone." Malfoy glanced at Hermione and said solemnly.

"I'm going outside to get some air."

Without saying a word, the girl took the initiative to stand up and walk out of the carriage, choosing to avoid it.

In her opinion, this should be a conversation between Slytherin House, so she should not be involved in it herself.

When Hermione was completely gone, Malfoy gestured to the two henchmen to stand guard at the door, and he walked in like a little adult, pulling out an envelope from his bosom and placing it on the table.

"What is this?" Zuo Si asked quietly.

"My father, Lucius Malfoy, asked me to pass it on to you. He said you'll understand after you read it. Malfoy replied very stiffly.

It can be seen that this pampered young master doesn't want to get close to the "dangerous person" in front of him, but he doesn't dare to disobey the task assigned by his father, so his mental state is very nervous and afraid.

Now this pretended calm appearance is completely disguised.

Realizing that Draco was just a messenger, Zuo Si immediately turned his attention to the envelope on the table, picked it up and opened it and glanced at it, a playful smile suddenly appeared on his face, and he asked meaningfully, "Do you know the contents of this letter?" ”

"I don't know." Malfoy shook his head slightly.

"I don't know the best. Because the content of this letter will upend your perception of your father. If there's nothing else, you can leave with the two henchmen outside. ”

With that, Zuo Si stuffed the letter back into the envelope and put on a posture of rushing people.

Because Draco is still a child who doesn't understand anything, and all he thinks about is how to get revenge on Harry Potter for making a public scandal.

It will take four or five years for the two to fall in love and kill each other before they truly realize how childish and ridiculous their previous behavior was.

There is no way, who let this be the stage that human beings must go through to grow, and no one can escape.

"What did my father tell you in the letter?" Malfoy asked curiously.

Zuo Si shrugged his shoulders and replied, "It's nothing special, it's just the survival of some pure-blood families that continue to this day." Trust me, it's a little too early for you. You should continue to find Harry Potter to release the twisted and sick love in your heart. Don't worry, I won't discriminate against you. After all, in the UK, this kind of thing has long been a no-brainer. ”

"You...... What nonsense are you talking about! I...... I'm not in the kind of relationship you mean. Malfoy's face flushed in shock and rage.

He couldn't imagine how bad his reputation at school would be if these words got out.

"Okay, okay, what you say is what you say, anyway, you can deceive others and you can't deceive your own heart."

The corners of Zuo Si's mouth turned up slightly, admiring the other party's angry appearance.

"You did it on purpose?!"

Malfoy seemed to realize something, and his face suddenly turned very ugly.

At this moment, for the first time, he regretted his impulsive behavior at the beginning of the school year.

At the same time, I finally understood that this peer who looked about the same age as himself was simply a devil who played with people's hearts.

"Huh, guess what?"

Zuo Si deliberately set his eyes on the door of the carriage.

Malfoy only then realized that Crabbe and Goyle were staring at him in horror, apparently hearing the conversation just now.

"Damn it!"

He couldn't help but curse in a low voice, and he didn't care about arguing with Zuo Si, so he walked out directly and pulled the two followers and disappeared into the carriage at the end of the corridor outside.

If nothing else, there is basically nothing else to do along the way, and I am afraid that time will be wasted explaining my "innocence" with Harry Potter.

A few minutes after the three of them left, Hermione returned the same way she came, and asked with a forced smile, "What did you just say to Malfoy?" He looked as if something wasn't quite right. ”

"Nothing, just a slight mention of his relationship with Harry." Zuo Si teased in a half-joking tone.

"Bad fate?!"

Hermione's eyes lit up slightly when she heard the word, and the fire of gossip burned in her heart.

Zuo Si explained with a smile: "That's right. This is a story of love and hate, and at the same time, it is also a story of extreme distortion and pathology in the heart. Guess why Malfoy always likes to get Harry in trouble? ”

"Uh...... Is it because of the conflict at the door on the first night of school? Hermione asked rhetorically in a tone of uncertainty that wasn't quite right.

"Yes and no. I'm sure you're smart, you can tell that Malfoy wanted to be friends with Harry in the first place, right? Zuo Si induced step by step.

Hermione lowered her head and remembered for a moment, then quickly nodded, "Well, yes." But is there any connection between Malfoy's trouble with Harry later? ”

"Of course it is! Have you ever heard of the term love and hate?

In fact, our arrogant young Master Malfoy has always loved Harry deeply in his heart.

It's just that when he was rejected in public for the first time, he felt embarrassed, so he frantically tried to get Harry's attention by looking for trouble.

Malfoy was also jealous of the overly close relationship between Ron and Harry.

So under the influence of all kinds of negative emotions, this kind of love is gradually distorted and finally becomes what we see. ”

Zuo Siwei carefully analyzed it.

Although he knew that he was purely idle and spoofing, the girl's young mind was greatly stimulated, and the child's hole was uncontrollably rapidly enlarged, contracted, and enlarged again to show the master's violent mood swings.

After about two or three minutes, Hermione suddenly came to her senses, covered her mouth and exclaimed, "Oh my God! This...... It's just unbelievable! No wonder I always think Malfoy always looks weird at Harry and Ron. But I've heard that the wizarding world isn't very conservative? How...... How could there be an outlier like Malfoy? ”

"Conservative?" Zuo Si scoffed at this. "Trust me, the wizarding world is far more open to this than you can imagine. Did you know that our Headmaster, Dumbledore, always liked to wear a conspicuous witch hat? Do you know why he is so old and has neither marriage nor children? ”

"Why?!"

Hermione's curiosity was aroused.

"Because Dumbledore's lover is the dark wizard he defeated with his own hands - Gellert Grindelwald. They met and fell in love at a very young age, and even made a blood pact that would never hurt each other. Zuo Si unceremoniously revealed the secret hidden in his heart by his principal.

"Huh?! Is this true? ”

Hermione's eyes widened with an expression of disbelief on her face.

Although she had read a lot of books, none of them would record the inside information that only the person concerned knew.

Zuo Si smiled and nodded: "Of course it's true." Our Headmaster, Dumbledore, known as the greatest wizard of our time, was actually a very pathetic man.

When he was younger, his own sister was accidentally seen by several Muggle children for using magic, and then went crazy and abused, which led to his father's complete outburst of revenge, and he was imprisoned in Azkaban until his death.

Later, after graduating from school, he became acquainted with Gellert Grindelwald.

The two hit it off at first sight, and because they were very similar in both their ideals and desires, they quickly fell in love.

At one point, they even wanted to overturn the law of secrecy and create a world dominated by wizards.

How, doesn't it sound incredible?

The great white wizard was actually a true dark wizard in the beginning.

I can assure you that Voldemort, who can't even be named after Dumbledore, is nothing compared to Dumbledore's prowess in the dark arts.

However, due to a fortuitous incident, Dumbledore and his brother Aberforth got into a quarrel, and Grindelwald later joined in, which eventually led to a scuffle between the three.

I don't know who it was, but suddenly released a terrible spell that accidentally hit my young sister Ariana, killing her on the spot.

From this day on, Dumbledore lost everything, whether it was family or love.

The only surviving biological brother who will never forgive him because of his sister's death.

He himself didn't know if it was because of guilt or something else, and gradually embarked on a path that went against Grindelwald, and thus lost love.

So don't be deceived by the flowery rhetoric and hype of the books.

The real Albus Dumbledore was not great at all from the beginning, but many accidents and mishaps shaped his image in the eyes of people today.

He's just a human being, just like you and me, with his own favorite food and drink, and most importantly, with the same mistakes. ”

There is no doubt that Dumbledore's bumpy life experience was definitely a big shock to Hermione.

The girl even sat in her position and was stunned for a long time, and finally digested this information, raised her head and asked in a shocked tone, "How do you know this?" ”

"Don't forget, I know Nicol Lemay. As an old man in his 600s, he knows a lot of secrets. And I also got a thick book of alchemical notes from him. Zuo Si raised the heavy book in his hand and shook it.

This was a gift from Nicol Lemay before he left Hogwarts, and hoped that he would succeed in crafting the second Philosopher's Stone, rather than having this precious skill completely lost.

"Nicol Lemay's alchemy notes?!"

Hermione stared at the black cover and felt her mouth dry for a while, and was the first to realize its immeasurable value.

"Yes, including the full manufacturing process of the Philosopher's Stone. To be honest, if you don't see it with your own eyes, outsiders will probably never know how something like the Philosopher's Stone is made. ”

After that, Zuo Si casually closed the entire notebook, without meaning to show it to the girl at all.

Because the content of this notebook, there are many parts for making dark magic items, which is not suitable for an eleven or twelve-year-old girl

It turns out that the so-called black magic is actually a little bit of what all wizards do.

The older and longer the shaman, the more in-depth the study in this area.

In Nicol Lemay's notes, it is nothing like cutting off the hand of a hanged man and using it to make the "Glorious Hand".

There were a lot of heavy things in it, not even much worse than Feren's necromantic magic.

Especially when it comes to the exploration of life and death, this alchemist goes deeper and farther than most wizards.

"So...... Are you now a disciple of the greatest alchemist, Nicol Lemay? Hermione's tone revealed intense envy.

Zuo Si smiled and shook his head: "No, my relationship with Nicol Lemay is not what you imagined, but closer to exchanging experiences in alchemy and making magical items. He gave me this notebook, mainly because he didn't want his research to be lost after his death. Well, don't keep staring at this notebook, it's not something you can get your hands on right now. ”

"When is that possible?" Hermione asked impatiently.

"At least grade 3 or above. It depends on how fast you grow. After all, alchemy is dangerous, and it is far more difficult to learn than spells or potions. ”

After a little thought, Zuo Si gave a deadline.

From the third year onwards, there is a clear tendency for Hogwarts textbooks to shift from beginner to advanced.

Some spells and potions, which even adult wizards may not be able to master, are taught at this stage.

Of course, it is not known how many of them can really learn to be repatriated.

Anyway, O.. The results of the LS exam are not deceiving.

In fact, out of a bad taste, Zuo Si even plans to wait a year or two to sell a workbook called "Three Years of OLS and Five Years of S" to the Hogwarts students, so that these young wizards can feel the tragic involution from the Muggle students.

In this way, in a relaxed chat, the Hogwarts Express arrived at its destination before you knew it.

As soon as they stepped out of the platform of the Nine and Three-Quarters platform, the Granger couple hugged their daughter and asked about the difference between the wizarding world and the ordinary world.

When Hermione answered all the questions and turned around to look for Zuo Si again, she found that the other party had already disappeared into the vast sea of people.

"Hermione, what are you looking at?" Mr. Granger asked curiously.

"I'm looking for a classmate to come back with.

His name was South, and like me, he came from a Muggle family.

But in just a few months of exposure to the wizarding world, he has achieved amazing things.

It also pioneered the invention of spell storage technology.

Many of the wizard's newspapers and media even declared that he would be a great wizard who would lead an era in the future.

Did you know? He can even read a book in just a few minutes and memorize the entire book backwards......"

As soon as Zuo Si was mentioned, the girl immediately gushed non-stop, and her two eyes revealed undisguised adoration.

Seeing his daughter's appearance, Mr. and Mrs. Granger immediately exchanged a look, and then burst out laughing.

Hermione looked shocked and asked, "What are you laughing at?" ”

"No, nothing. We just didn't expect that you, who have always been smart, proud, conceited and stubborn, would admire other people. Tell me, is this boy named Soth handsome? Mrs. Granger had a hint of banter in her tone.

She also thought that with her daughter's personality, she might not be able to make friends if she suddenly changed her environment.

But now it seems that it is completely overwhelmed.

"Oops! What are you talking about! We are just classmates and friends, not what you think. As for what he looks like, here's a Daily Prophet newspaper, and you'll know it after you read it. ”

As she spoke, Hermione blushed and quickly took out a copy of her collection of Daily Prophets from the box and handed it to her parents.

As Muggles in the truest sense of the word, the Granger couple apparently saw the moving photograph for the first time, and immediately let out a wow.

However, in order not to arouse the minds of the others around them, they quickly left the station and slipped into their car, and then began to read the influential newspaper in the wizarding world in the cab.

When he read Rita Skeeter's meat-numbing hype, Mr. Granger was stunned and immediately asked without looking back, "Hermione, can you really read a book in a few minutes and then recite it word by word?" ”

The girl replied without thinking: "Of course! I've tested it myself.

I think that even if Soth doesn't become a wizard, he will at least become a very powerful scientist.

Because I grew up, I had never met anyone as smart as him.

It seems that no matter what kind of knowledge, you can learn it immediately if you read it once.

Half of the spells I have mastered now were taught to me by him.

Oh, by the way, I almost forgot you guys.

When I was in school, I earned a lot of gold galleons by working as an assistant for Zuo Si. ”

As she spoke, Hermione quickly pulled out a homemade leather bag from her suitcase and collapsed onto the saddle.

Moment!

On top of this there is a small mountain of golden light.

"O my God! This...... How much is that? Mrs. Granger exclaimed.

"Maybe four thousand, maybe five thousand, I didn't count specifically. However, it should be enough to pay for the next semester. Hermione gave an approximate number.

Unlike the Wesleyga twin brothers, who joined later, because she has been playing for Zuo Si from the beginning, she naturally got a lot of bonuses.

In particular, customizing "staff rings" with floats and emblems for those ancient families from England, France, and Germany can often earn a profit of three or four thousand, or even five thousand gold galleons.

"What is the main job of an assistant?" Mr. Granger had a puzzled look on his face.

As a dentist, he was originally a high-income group in society, so he had no idea how to make so much money in a short period of time.

Not to mention the fact that they are still students of two magic schools.

According to the exchange rate given by Gringotts, one galleon is equal to five pounds sterling.

Five thousand galleons is equal to about twenty-five thousand pounds.

In 1991, this was definitely a huge amount of money, and even the sum of the income of many middle-class families who did not eat or drink for a year.

Hermione, apparently noticing her father's reaction, explained with a smile, "Soth invented a device that could be attached to a wand and store a spell.

And this device allows wizards to have a certain advantage when dueling and defending against enemy attacks.

Therefore, many rich and powerful ancient European families came to him for customization.

On average, for each production, Soth makes a very good profit.

My job is to help with the materials, shaping the metal into the shape and shape that the client needs through transformation magic.

Professor McGonagall also complimented me, saying that my transfiguration magic was at least the level of a fourth-year student. ”

"My little Hermione was awesome! Mom is so proud of you! Looks like you've really made good friends at school. Mrs. Granger excitedly took her daughter in her arms.

Mr. Granger smiled and nodded in satisfaction, "This boy named Thor is indeed good. Why don't you invite him over for Christmas? ”

"I was invited. But he had a lot to do during the holidays, and he had to buy a lot of things, so he didn't have time for Christmas. Hermione spread her hands helplessly.

"Haha! Don't be discouraged! You can also invite him to come and play at home during the holidays after the semester ends. I also want to see what it is like to be a peer who can convince you. ”

With that, Mr. Granger glanced out of the corner of his eye at the photo of Zuo Si's activities in the Daily Prophet, and then quickly started the car and drove away.

After all, the weather in London in December is wet and cold, and apart from homeless homeless people, not many normal people will want to spend too much time outdoors.

……

At the same time, Zuo Si also used the illusion to return to the house he had purchased in London.

Although the Ministry of Magic monitors all underage wizards, it is easier for him to avoid them than it is to eat or drink.

You can either use prophecy magic to block the tracking, or you can use a second wand of your own making.

Yes!

Not long after the start of school, Zuo Si secretly found a piece of wood at the edge of the Forbidden Forest that could be used to make a wand, and made himself a spare wand in case he needed it.

When he pushed open the door and walked into the living room, the shadow assassin Yelinia who had stayed here immediately appeared, touched his chest with one hand and bowed deeply.

"Master, you're back."

"Nothing happened during my absence, did it?"

Zuo Si asked, waving his wand and casting a cleaning charm to clean the dust off the floor, table, and bed.

"No, everything was very quiet. The world is very safe. Yelinia hurriedly replied in the affirmative.

"In that case, let's go back."

As he spoke, Zuo Si took out a card from his hand that he had made by entering the depths of the Forbidden Forest.

[Land: Legendary Lands - Hogwarts Forbidden Forest]

[LV8 Green Card (Upgradeable)]

[Card Quality: Unique]

[Effect: When this card is active, it can provide 30 universal mana and 40 green mana every day.]

Minions that use all green cards will receive additional bonuses to their basic stats such as Strength, Agility, and Constitution, as well as an additional special ability at random.

This ability is tied to the creature itself and only works within the land's area of influence]

[You don't need to consume mana to use this card]

[If the effect of this card is destroyed or destroyed by other magical forces, it will automatically enter the graveyard and wait for rebirth for 80 days]

There's no doubt that this LV8 land is a typical way to buff green minions.

Since the Forbidden Forest at Hogwarts, like the castle, has some powerful magical powers, it is very easy to attract all kinds of magical animals to gather here.

So far, Zuo Si knows of the Centaur tribe, the werewolf tribe, the unicorn, the eight-eyed spider, the Thestrals, the sniffers, the Hippogriff, the Hippogriff, the Tree Guard, and several snakes with magical powers, as well as a large number of messes that Hagrid has kept inside.

In addition, there are quite a few rare plants that can be used in high-grade potions, with more than a hundred trees that can be used to make broomsticks and wands alone.

According to the original plan, Zuosi was going to make a Hogwarts land.

It's a pity that Dumbledore never gave him such a chance, so he had to make do with the Forbidden Forest first.

Without any hesitation!

Before opening the portal, Zuo Si used the land card directly, and then unleashed the power of the spark to tear the space.

In the blink of an eye, he returned from the Magic Earth to his own mage tower.

Tower Consciousness immediately relayed the news to everyone.

In less than two minutes, Yin Shadora was the first to rush over and hug Zuo Si, greedily sniffing the familiar smell on his body, and at the same time said excitedly: "You're finally back!" ”

"yes, I'm back. Well, have you worked on your psychic abilities and magical abilities during my absence? Zuo Si gently stroked the girl's long hair and asked.

I don't know if it's because the body is beginning to develop, but when the two of them are in close contact, he began to have a little unusual feeling.

"Of course! Vanessa complimented me the other day, saying that I was the smartest apprentice he had ever seen in his life. See, I already have my own spell book. ”

Yin Shadora patted a tome wrapped in black scales that was hanging on her belt.

As an expert in the manufacture of magical items and strange objects, Zuo Si could tell at a glance that this thing was made of black dragon skin, and its value was at least six thousand gold coins, which was definitely not something that ordinary apprentices could afford.

Just as he was about to say something, the other portals placed between the teleportations behind him began to flicker with blinding arcane aura.

After a while, one by one, the lichs of the organization appeared out of thin air.

You don't need to ask, they are here to find out about the knowledge and skills of magic in another world.

After all, Vanessa and Jeffrey had been there once, and had fought against Dumbledore, and were very interested in the skill of casting various spells with just a wand.

"You really don't even give me time to catch your breath." Zuo Si sighed slightly.

"You know, we're all lichs, we're undead, so we never think about gasping." Jeffrey made a humorous joke.

"Alright, alright, then let's have a meeting to discuss the value of magical knowledge and technology in that world, and I also want to know about the current situation of the organization and what is happening along the west coast of the Feron continent."

Seeing that the lichs were staring at him with expectant eyes, Zuo Si had no choice but to take out a large number of notes from his satchel that he had translated into lingua franca on weekdays.

The former took it to the conference room located on the ground floor to prepare for a series of evaluations and tests of this knowledge and technology.

Vanessa stayed behind and began to report to the head of the organization.

In particular, the development of the NΓ€lancer Islands, as well as the infiltration and control of Baldur's Gate.

Since the last time the defeat treaty was signed, the four dukes of Baldur's Gate have completely torn their skins and rallied the various classes in the city to form two major interest groups to confront each other.

Among them, the interest group led by Duke Yin Ertan, although it has lost the support of most of the citizens and merchant class, still firmly holds the trump card of the Flame Fist mercenary, causing its political enemies to dare not push too much, for fear that this guy will jump over the wall and launch a purge.

And the Duke of Silver Shield, who was responsible for this defeat, did not step down as many expected.

Instead, by ceding part of the port to the red-robed wizards as a concession, he gained support from Serre, as well as a steady supply of food and low-level magic items.

Although its power is far less amazing than that of its heyday, it has also successfully stabilized its position and gained a chance to make a comeback.

In contrast, Duke Bert and Archduchess Lila Jenas won the support of most of the citizens by fanning the popular mood, while the Shelter Merchants League did everything they could to gain market share, hoping to control Baldurgate's economic lifeline.

As for the maritime merchants, they all fell to the NΓ©lancer Islands.

Because only in this way can the safety of their navigation be guaranteed, and they can be treated in the same way as other countries and city-states.

Fortresses and towers have been built on several islands at the mouth of the Okini River, and now they are equipped with a large number of catapults and ballistas, like strong and powerful hands, which are the only exit from Baldur's Gate to the sea.

This also means that Baldur's Gate has completely lost the ability to dominate the sea, and there is no second choice in the future except to honestly become a vassal of the Nlanthor Islands.

It's just that because the maritime merchants abandoned the Duke of Silver Shield, they are now in the middle of the complex political situation, and they have no intention of getting involved in the infighting.

If nothing else, this situation will continue for quite some time.

"Interesting! In other words, Baldur's Gate has now changed from a two-way game to a three-way game. Are we one of them? Zuo Si touched his chin with a playful expression.

"No, we're not one of them, we're closer to refereeing. As long as we are gone, we can help one faction destroy the other at any time. Vanessa corrected meaningfully.

"Then keep it as it is. Don't let the situation worsen, and don't give those dukes a chance to make peace. In addition, taking advantage of the current turbulent situation at Baldur's Gate, we will attract as many craftsmen and technicians as possible to settle in the Nærancer Islands and develop our own base. Zuo Si quickly gave instructions.

"As you wish!" Vanessa agreed without hesitation. "There's one more thing that might be of interest to you."

"Oh? What is it? Zuo Si asked with interest.

"Not long ago, the expedition you and Bernard jointly financed returned safely.

Not only did they discover the continent of Aztec across the sea, but they also opened up a safe new route.

The problem was that some of the sailors who accompanied him came forward to accuse the expedition's captain Cordell and his Golden Mercenary Regiment of killing and plundering the natives after they came ashore under the banner of Amm and Heim, the god of guards.

They even deliberately spread diseases and plagues to natives who had no ability to resist.

In addition, there are also very big differences between the two sides in terms of the distribution of spoils and benefits, and the whole of Ascatra is now in chaos. ”

Vanessa didn't hide anything, and told all the information he had gathered straightforwardly.

Because he knew that Zuo Si himself was one of the top elites in Am, and he was also one of the main sponsors, and he had a personal interest.

"Killing and plundering the indigenous population under the banner of Amm and Heim, the god of the guards? Is this guy called Cordell crazy? Isn't he afraid of being hunted down by the Church of the God of Protection? Zuo Si raised his eyebrows confidently.

The lich immediately shook his head and explained, "Of course Cordell is not afraid. Because he and his Golden Mercenary Regiment were themselves part of a branch of the Heim Church.

And according to his own account, more than half of this money was intended to be donated to the church.

Because of the continuous fermentation of this matter, many people in all neighboring countries and regions, including Am, began to spit on Heim's church, and a large number of believers changed their faith.

It is foreseeable that within a few years, the influence of the god of the guardian will be greatly weakened on the west coast. ”

Boy!

Hearing this exciting news, Zuo Si felt that the god of guards, Haim, must be eager to lower his incarnation and smash this bastard believer who ruined his reputation to death with a hammer.

Can money and material things in the mortal world be compared with faith and influence?

I'm afraid there is some serious problem in this brain!

Other churches are desperately trying to use the wealth and resources they have at hand to attract believers and expand their influence in the material world.

But Kodell is good, and he does the opposite.

From this point, it is not difficult to see how much a mentally handicapped believer can deal a blow to the church of a god in the mortal world.

You must know that the inhabitants of Faeron are not the Europeans who generally do not regard the indigenous people as human beings in the Age of Discovery, but have a fairly high moral level.

This kind of rushing into people's homes to burn, kill, and loot should be 100 percent defined as an act of extreme evil.

Especially city-states and nations like Waterdeep, Silvermoon, Neverwinter, and Cormier, which tend to be kind, will be immediately arrested and judged even if you can bring great benefits to the entire country by doing so.

But this is not necessarily the case in areas like Am, Baldur's Gate, and Sambia, which are ruled by merchants and oligarchs.

However, Zuo Si didn't care at all about the plummeting influence of the god of guards, but continued to ask himself: "What about Bernard and his father-in-law?" How did they deal with it? ”

"They were all very clever enough not to let themselves get involved directly, but instead invited the paladins of the Knights of the Burning Heart to arbitrate, and are now fighting a lawsuit against each other. But I think the reason why the six-member council has been slow to take a stand is because it is afraid that dealing with Cordell and his golden mercenary group may dampen the people's enthusiasm for exploration. Of course, it's also possible that I'm waiting for you to make a statement. Vanessa rubbed her chin and guessed.

"Wait for me to make a statement? I see. Then I'll reluctantly stand up and preside over justice. ”

As he said this, Zuo Si's eyes flashed with a chilling light.

"Presiding over justice?" The lich was momentarily stunned.

"That's right, justice."

With a dangerous smile on his face, Zuo Si quickly left the Mage Tower and came to Bernard's family mansion.

As soon as he entered the main hall, he saw the young merchant sitting with his father-in-law, Sir Kelvin, whispering something.

Next to the two sat a man and a woman.

Among them, the male does not need to ask to know, it is the heir of the Nashewa family - Babette.

And the woman is his sister, Yin Disi, who only recently became Bernard's legal wife.

As a guard, the little giant spirit Mika stood at a distance, teasing a cow cat covered in black and white colors.

The moment he saw Zuo Si walking in from outside the door, the young merchant immediately stood up from the sofa and asked in a tone full of surprise, "Your Excellency Soss!" You're back? When? ”

"Just now. I heard that the expedition we funded was in a little trouble, so I rushed over to deal with it. Zuo Si responded with a smile.

"Great! When you come back, I'll have the backbone. Because the benefits of discovering the New World were so great that I couldn't sleep for days and nights. ”

Bernard pointed to his dark circles and began to pour bitter water.

It can be seen that his nerves have been quite tense recently, and the whole person looks excited and anxious.

It can't be helped, who makes the benefits involved too amazing.

Many top families have begun to eye, wanting to grab a piece of fat from it.

"Hello, Excellency the Electorate. It's a pleasure to be your partner. Sir Kelvin politely offered to say hello.

Zuo Si immediately replied, "I'm glad to work with you, Sir." I believe that as long as we work together, we will definitely be able to get the biggest share from this gluttonous feast. ”

"I never doubted that. However, the trouble now is that Cordell seems to have the support of the Church of Heim, the god of guards, behind him, so we don't dare to take it lightly. Sir Kelvin said with some embarrassment.

But Zuo Si smiled disappreciatively: "Don't worry, just leave this matter to me to solve." Not only will I leave Cordell and his golden mercenary group in the name of a thousand years, but I will also turn them all into blasphemers and heinous criminals, and they will be burned alive on the execution ground. ”

"Do you have any good ideas?" Bernard's eyes widened instantly.

"It's actually quite simple! First, cut Cordell's ties with the Church of the God of Guard.

To be honest, something like him would never ??? Contrary to Heim's teachings.

That's why I'm going to launch a divine judgment with both the Council of Six and the Church of the Guardian God.

I believe that Haim must be more than happy to kill this creature who ruined his reputation with his own hands, so as to wash away the sewage that was spilled on him.

As for the second step, it is for the judge to judge the entire members of the Golden Mercenary Group according to their crimes, and sentence them to death one by one.
