Casting spells

"Oh? A fleet? What does she want?" Zhang Cheng pursed his lips, showing a dangerous smile.

"I think...she probably came here for the inheritance." Moroya raised her head, with a cruel smile on her face.

Perhaps in the eyes of many people, the trade prince Trager O'Moron is an opponent that should not be underestimated. His wealth, fleet, mercenaries and slaves are no worse than any great noble in Westeros.

But in Zhang Cheng's eyes, the trade prince Craig O'Moron was just a stronger ant, who could be crushed to death with just a few fingers.

But he didn't understand what gave the other party the courage to set foot in the old town to support his concubine.

Could it be that Tragg O'Meren didn't know that in front of dragons, any fleet or army would be as fragile as a piece of paper?

Or does this guy have some other purpose?

Of course, it doesn't rule out that the other party is really stupid, just like the slave owners in Slaver's Bay, they actually think that they can defeat Daenerys who has three dragons on the frontal battlefield.

If this is the case, Zhang Cheng doesn't mind teaching the other party a good lesson. By the way, he captures Reese and checks whether there is anything he needs in the treasury of Trigg O'Moron.

After thinking about this point, he temporarily put aside his resentment for the dragon eggs not yet hatched, turned around and walked towards the exit, intending to see how beautiful Lyness was that Jorah Mormont could never forget.

Seeing this, Moroya hurriedly followed, she didn't want to stay in the eerie basement for a second.

But less than a minute after the two left, the dragon egg, which had never moved, suddenly made a cracking sound, followed by several cracks on the surface of the shell, and a crumpled, silver-gray baby dragon Drilled out from inside.

What is different from ordinary dragons is that its eyes have no pupils, or even eyeballs. There are only two cold white lights, and what is ejected from the blue sky from its mouth is not sparks, but smoke full of rancid death breath. .

With no heartbeat, no body temperature, and no wisdom, this newborn little guy was completely driven by instinct, and directly rushed to a shriveled corpse, opened his mouth and sucked vigorously.

I saw a silver-white translucent soul, which was sucked out abruptly, and became the food for the young dragon to grow up with a painful face.

followed by the second, third, fourth...

In less than half an hour, it ate up hundreds of dead souls in the basement, and its size quickly expanded from the size of a dinner plate to the size of a truck, lying on the ground and slowly falling into a deep sleep.

You don't need to ask, but it takes a while to digest after a full meal.

Kuro Kerba, who was resting on the top floor of the towering tower, seemed to sense the threat, opened his eyes suddenly, flicked his tail restlessly, and continuously sprayed golden sparks from his nostrils.

But the anxiety came and went quickly.

After it discovered that the threat came from the bottom of the towering tower, it quickly quieted down.

Because it knows that it is where its master conducts magic experiments. Since the master did not notify it to help, it means that the situation is not out of control, so there is no need to worry too much.

In this way, without anyone noticing, it is very likely that it is the first undead creature in the world of A Song of Ice and Fire, born in the lowest layer of the towering tower, and even passed the most dangerous nascent stage.

No one knows what this means, and no one understands how disruptive its birth is and how it will affect the future.

As the instigator, Zhang Cheng had no idea that his dangerous creation had hatched, and was sitting in the living room looking at Linice Hightower who came from afar.

I have to say that although she has serious personality flaws, she is indeed very beautiful, with long golden hair, milky skin as white as snow, and a weak temperament of a little woman, no wonder she can conquer Jorah Mo Ermon and Tragg O'Merlen.

Right now, the woman is wearing a purple silk gown popular in the Free Cities, exposing a large area of ​​seductive skin on her chest and back, showing off her curvy curves to her heart's content.

And her man, the trade prince Craig O'Mollen, didn't seem to mind his woman being admired by other men. He took the lead and bowed with one hand on his chest: "It's an honor to meet you, Earl Mason . to know that even on the other side of the sea we can hear stories and legends about you."

Chapter 224 News from afar

"Oh? My legend?" Zhang Cheng stared into the other's eyes with great interest.

As the saying goes, people must ask for courtesy, and the dignified trade prince lowered his posture as soon as he met. He must not have been full to curry favor with him, and judging from the almost humble attitude of the two, it is also It's not like looking for trouble.

"That's right! Whether it is the story of the tourney that defeated many powerful enemies to become the champion, or the story of destroying Stannis' proud cavalry at the Battle of the Blackwater River, it has been spread throughout the whole world under the praise of poets. Eastern Continent. Many young people regard you as their idol, while girls regard you as their dream lover..." Linis Hightower took the initiative to take the topic in a soft and delicate voice.

Her passionate eyes seem to imply something, giving people infinite reverie.

But it is a pity that this kind of subtle seduction is obviously useless to Zhang Cheng. He didn't even look at Linice, and directly lowered his voice and said to the trade prince: "Trigger O'Mollen, you have 5 minutes to come!" Explain what's going on with the convoy of ships docked in the bay. If you don't give a good reason within five minutes, I'll have the dragons attack as soon as the time is up. Do it now, I'm listening."

Without any cover-up, Zhang Cheng replaced the endless probing of each other with naked threats.

Linnis Hightower obviously didn't expect that there are men in this world who can ignore their own beauty, to be exact, they don't even bother to pay attention to it.

Just after her smile froze on her face, Cui Ge O'Merun gave his concubine a calm look, and explained in a serious tone: "Dear Your Excellency, please don't get me wrong, I am not here to replace you." The Hightower family is fighting for something. On the contrary, I am here to ask for your mercy and protection. Maybe you don’t know it yet, a guy who calls himself the Dragon King has conquered including Slaver’s Bay, most of the Free Trade Cities and more than a dozen A Dothraki tribe, and his army has expanded to nearly 10 people. The most terrifying thing is that he also controls ten living dragons!"

"Ten dragons?!" Zhang Cheng's pupils shrank suddenly.

You must know that not long ago, he only got the news from Daenerys. Eric had just taken several major cities in Slaver's Bay and controlled Rhaego, Viserion and Drogon. Thousands of Unsullied.

But in the blink of an eye, this guy actually expanded rapidly around Slaver's Bay. Not only did the number of troops increase tenfold, but the number of dragons also increased to ten.

Obviously, Eric found a lot of dragon eggs scattered on the East Road through war and plunder, and then successfully hatched seven of them that were not dead yet.

At this speed, it is only a matter of time before the dragons that cover the sky and the sun pass over the old town.

Craig O'Moren undoubtedly sensed the vigilance revealed in Zhang Cheng's eyes, and hurriedly added: "Yes, my lord, there are ten dragons. In fact, three days before I set out to sea, the other party's warship had already left the port for Rhys is going forward, presumably at this moment Rhys has been completely conquered. If there is no accident, the Dragon King will soon lead an unprecedented army to set foot on Westeros, and you are the only one who can defeat him."

"Has the entire eastern part of the Essos continent fallen? It's really ambitious..." Zhang Cheng pursed his lips and sighed with a half-smile.

Although he has long understood that a person with a personality like Eric's will never be content with the status quo once he gains power, but it is still a bit unexpected to use violence to conquer a large area of ​​land beyond his own management ability.

After all, it is one thing to conquer and plunder, and another to maintain a stable rule.

He doesn't think that the extremely backward public transportation system in the world of Ice and Fire, as well as the serious lack of a centralized state system, is capable of maintaining an empire with a large land area.

Generally speaking, the faster a state without effective governance expands, the faster it collapses itself.

However, Eric, who was born as a civilian, obviously didn't understand this truth. He simply believed that the larger the land and army under his control, the stronger his strength, and the better he could complete the tasks assigned by his master.

After realizing what his opponent was thinking, Zhang Chengfei did not show any worry, but instead responded with a relaxed expression: "Well, I admit that the news you brought is somewhat useful, but it is not enough to get my protection based on this alone." Impossible, you have to pay extra."

"Of course! I am willing to dedicate half of my ships, servants, mercenaries and goods to you in exchange for your kindness. In addition, including Linis, all my daughters and concubines, you can bring Whoever goes, it is their honor to serve a hero like you." Cui Ge O'Merun made the condition without thinking.

It has to be said that he did have extraordinary courage, and he chose to give up half of his property without hesitation.

Only in this way can you ensure the safety of your own life and the remaining half of your property.

In any case, a fleeing trade prince is definitely fat in the eyes of many people. Once the first person rushes up to take the first bite, the rest of them will swarm like sharks smelling blood , no matter how many guards are hired, it will not help.

"You are very smart, and I like to deal with smart people. But please remember, don't be too smart, if I find out that you have some tricks in the underground, then..." Zhang Cheng deliberately dragged on for a long time. Yin, with a dangerous gleam in his eyes.

Cui Ge O'Meren immediately nodded vigorously and assured: "I understand! Please rest assured, I never risk my life."

"Very good! Go ahead and give half of your property to Moloya, and then your people can go ashore. As for Linice, you'd better keep it for yourself, I don't like this kind of spendthrift and vain Women are not interested. In my eyes, she is not even as good as a hunting dog, at least the hunting dog will rush to fight desperately when its owner is in danger, but she chooses to betray because her husband can't provide a superior life." Zhang Cheng said blankly. road.

"My lord, you are too harsh. Linis is just a concubine, a plaything used to make yourself happy. Do you care about the betrayal of a plaything? No, absolutely not, so why don't you relax How about going to enjoy it? Two days ago, Linice begged me to help her capture Old Town, guess what my answer was?" Trager O'Mollen asked in a playful tone.

Zhang Cheng glanced at Linice, whose face was getting uglier, and asked with a half-smile, "What is it?"

"Hahahahaha! I answered her with actions! It was a fierce battle! She couldn't even stand up afterwards, how could she remember what she asked for. Look, this is how I deal with women, You can definitely give it a try." Cui Ge O'Merun opened his arms and laughed unscrupulously.
