A few hours later, in the hall on the first floor of the towering tower, Zhang Cheng held a grand banquet in the name of moroya haitar.

On the surface, he claimed to celebrate the rescue of the old town from the iron islands fleet and reward the reinforcements from afar, but in fact, he took over the rule from the perishing hatar family reasonably and legally in order to divide up interests.

The people who got the invitation were not only the nobles who took the initiative to take refuge in beehive, led by Lord Warren bisbury, but also the big businessmen in the city.

As for the so-called "seven gods" church originally supported by the haitar family, it was directly hung there. It was neither invited nor clear what happened. It inquired around like a headless fly.

They didn\'t know that they had just walked through hell not long ago.

According to the original plan, Zhang Cheng originally planned to uproot the church forces and completely eliminate all the stubborn forces in Liangshui city and the old town.

However, considering that the belief system of the seven gods does not have any supernatural power, it is difficult to pose a threat to him who controls the powerful magic power.

In addition, the sudden eradication of it will cause unnecessary unrest, so he finally decided to observe it for a period of time. Anyway, there is still a chance to do it in the future.

Just as he sat on the main seat and silently observed everyone\'s reaction, moroya, who was dressed next to him, suddenly came close, pointed to Beth, who was alone hiding in the corner drinking muggy wine, and asked, "who is that woman? Why did she kill me?"

"She?" Zhang Cheng took a sip of sour wine and explained meaningfully "Her name is Beth Tarot. She is the daughter of a free city merchant. According to her words, you publicly executed her father on the charge of smuggling and confiscated all her property. Therefore, in order to revenge, she has been lurking in the black market of the old town and actively engaged in various jobs detrimental to the hatar family."

"Merchant of the free city?" moroya frowned and thought hard. For about a few seconds, she seemed to think of something, and her eyes showed an incredible look. "Vulture Dalia! I didn\'t expect his daughter to be alive!"

"Oh? Do you remember?" Zhang Cheng raised his head in surprise.

Moroya smiled bitterly and sighed: "How can you forget! Vulture is the only one who can provide all kinds of strange commodities for the Hatal family, ranging from dragon eggs and varelian steel swords to corpses and slaves. As long as you can afford the price, he can find a way to get them. But the problem is that he is so greedy that he deliberately switched packages in the last transaction and tried to sell me a fake dragon egg. I was angry I killed him, but I didn\'t find the real dragon egg. "

"Greed is one of the deepest desires hidden in everyone\'s heart, especially businessmen, whose ultimate goal is to pursue more profits. You should be very clear about this. Because angry killing is a foolish act, especially killing someone who has enough value for himself." Zhang Cheng smiled and shrugged his shoulders.

He never taboo killing, but he will never kill because of anger. Most of the time, he only wants to have fun for a while, which often means that he has to pay a high price afterwards.

"You\'re right! I\'m really stupid! What\'s more stupid is that I didn\'t send someone to hunt down Dalia\'s only daughter." moroya touched the bruise on her face and laughed at herself with chagrin.

Although she had been smeared with anti swelling ointment and a large amount of water powder, the "crazy woman" could still see the marks of being beaten on her face, especially the handprints on her neck were clearly visible, and she was almost strangled alive.

"Hehe, we are not gods, but mortals. Since we are mortals, we will inevitably make mistakes, which is nothing. But the problem is that some people will learn from them immediately after they make mistakes, while others will never learn from them. Now tell me, do you belong to the former or the latter?" After that, Zhang Cheng put down his glass and appreciated the woman sitting next to him with great interest.

It has to be said that according to the standards of Westeros, moroya is definitely a real beauty. Although she is 33 years old this year, due to the use of some alchemy drugs, her apparent age is up to 278. In addition, she is mixed with mature intellectual temperament, which gives people a different kind of stimulation.

Moroya was not an idiot. When she saw the change of each other\'s sight, she raised her plump and attractive chest, smiled and asked, "why, are you suddenly interested in me?"

Zhang Cheng shook his head noncommittally: "maybe, maybe not, who knows. My desire for the opposite sex is not as strong as that of most men, but the vassals hope I can prove myself, at least let them confirm that the Lord who is loyal to me likes women."

"What are you waiting for? Let\'s go upstairs to the bedroom! I also want to have an" in-depth "communication with you alone." moroya deliberately stressed the word "in-depth", and her tone was full of provocation.

"Are you sure? You know, I\'m the enemy who killed all my relatives, including your father, and then you\'re willing to have" in-depth "communication with me?" Zhang Cheng said meaningfully.

"Why not? I\'m just a woman and can\'t fight a powerful caster like you. The only thing I can do is to ensure that I survive as much as possible." there was neither sadness nor hatred on moroya\'s face, as if everything she did was taken for granted.

Zhang Cheng has read part of the history of the seven kingdoms and knows that when many noble families are facing the disaster of destruction, the surviving women usually do not choose to fight hard or revenge. Instead, they marry their enemies and give birth to their children. In this way, the blood of the family can be inherited.

Although as an outsider, it was difficult for him to understand such disguised surrender to the enemy, he finally nodded: "well, I\'m beginning to believe in your sincerity. Before going upstairs, please tell me what the powder you just used is? Why do all the armor stained with it rust and the cloth become hard and brittle?"

"Rotten dust, I obtained the formula from an alchemy book and made it after many attempts. Of course, what I made is only the primary version. According to the description in the book, its real power is enough to make a person wither and rot instantly. If you want, I can write down the raw materials and manufacturing process at any time." moroya didn\'t hide anything, The answer was given in a big way.

"Rotten dust? It sounds interesting. I\'ll try it myself later. Oh, I almost forgot. You just mentioned that Beth\'s father switched a dragon egg, that is, there may be a real dragon egg buried somewhere in the old town, right?" Zhang Cheng looked into the corner.

Unaware, Beth still poured one cup after another, completely unaware of the danger.

Moroya raised her mouth and replied with a smile: "that\'s right! I think the vulture probably told her only daughter where to hide before she died. You can start with this and investigate slowly..."
