"A mess?"

Zuo Si chuckled and shook his head.

“No, it’s not a mess, it’s a necessary evil.

Only when Fuzzol Chamberlain has completely eliminated all the ruling classes in the North and destroyed those forces that hinder social progress and development can I carry out drastic reforms according to my wishes.

Otherwise, if I were to do these things, it would inevitably cause a lot of unnecessary resistance and resentment, and if not handled properly it might turn into sharp conflicts.

So to some extent, the army of Zhentil Keep is doing the things that are most likely to cause public resentment for me.

What I have to do is to wait until this dissatisfaction has brewed to a certain extent, and then liberate the vast land from Baldur's Gate to the Dragon Coast as a savior, so as to win the right to rule reasonably and legally.

Since the current situation is in my favor, why should I rush to deal with it? "

Khelbourne had obviously anticipated this answer, so he calmly asked, "How long do you plan to wait? A few days, ten days, or one or two months? There must be a deadline, right? Otherwise, if you wait until Fuzzol Chamberlain has established a stable rule there, you will be doing more harm than good.

You should know that the greatest feature of the Church of Bane is that it can quickly establish order in the conquered lands.

What's more, they have begun to seize resources and wealth in the occupied areas and transport them to Zhentil Keep.

If you give Fouzel Chamberlain too much time, he will strip the region of everything of value, leaving you with a poor, devastated land.

I believe this is not the result you want, right? "

It must be said that Khelben, who is from the lawful neutral camp, is indeed a very good persuader and diplomat.

Because he was never as willful and stubborn as Elminster, always insisting on what he thought was right and never knowing what compromise and concession were.

Just the opposite!

Kyle tends to think from the perspective of others, and then use the other party's interests as inducement to achieve his own goals.

This is why many rulers hate Elminster and the Harpers he founded, but are very happy to establish good friendship with Khelben.

As a supporter of law and absolute order, Khelbourne hates nothing more than a city or even a country falling into complete chaos and disorder.

If helping an evil force can restore it to normal, he will gladly accept it even if the new order is slavery.

This philosophy explains why he is able to make deals and reach cooperation in certain areas with Bane voters such as Fuzzol Chamberlain.

Of course, if he had a choice, Khelbourne would still prefer to establish a relatively neutral or benevolent ruling order.

In fact, Waterdeep is a large city-state that is typically neutral but slightly inclined toward good.

In unknown corners and near the entrances to the Underworld, there are always various thieves guilds and criminal organizations active.

But as long as they do not pose a huge threat to the security of the city, the Masked Lords Council of Waterdeep will turn a blind eye and basically will not spend much effort to clear them out.

Because it doesn't make any sense.

Before effective grassroots governance and rule are achieved, even if it is eliminated, it will soon revive again.

A similar situation had already occurred once before, when the Lords' Council ordered the expulsion of the Shadow Thieves Guild.

After all, the power vacuum at the bottom of society objectively exists.

When the government is unable to fill the gap, other forces will naturally come to fill it.

Generally speaking, Waterdeep's specialized guild system fills most of these gaps.

Organized crime and thieves' guilds make up the other small portion.

What's more, the mad wizard Halaster Blackrobed occasionally comes to the surface to secretly manipulate politics, and many forces are under his control.

The Council of Masked Lords dare not offend this person, otherwise the entire Waterdeep City will be blown to the sky.

Looking at Khelbourne's inquiring black pupils, Zuo Si smiled and shrugged his shoulders, "It doesn't matter! The things that Fuzor Chamberlain can transport are at most some gold, silver, jewelry, food, cloth, weapons, armor and luxury goods.

For me, I can get almost as much of these things as I want, without even spending any money.

And when everyone has become poor because of plunder, wouldn't it be possible to win more support and cheers if I give them some relief? Politically speaking, this is not a bad thing, but a good thing.

It is precisely because of the comparison that the civilians from Baldur's Gate to Dragon Coast can feel the changes and benefits I can bring to them.

If Waterdeep wants to ask me to send troops quickly, then please show some sincerity and don't just think about getting something for nothing."

Zuo Si made the point clear without any hesitation.

He knew that the longer the Zhentil Keep army occupied Baldur's Gate, the more disadvantageous it would be for Waterdeep.

In particular, it will greatly weaken its influence and dominance in the Sword Coast.

As the "leader" and "leader of the alliance", if Fuzzol Chamberlain is not driven away as soon as possible, then other towns will see the weakness of Waterdeep and come up with some other ideas and thoughts.

For example, joining a stronger and more powerful force.

What’s even more terrible is that once such thoughts and ideas arise, they will never disappear with the withdrawal of the Zhentil Castle army.

It affects people's hearts and their trust in Waterdeep.

You have to know that Waterdeep is not just a city, but a large number of small towns and villages radiating from it, with a population of up to millions.

Therefore, if it loses these, although Waterdeep will still maintain a considerable degree of prosperity due to its superior geographical location, large number of spellcasters, and one of the very few spaceports in Faerun, its political status and influence will inevitably plummet.

Especially without the cheap food and raw materials such as grain, meat, and wood provided by the villages and towns, it would be impossible to maintain such a large urban population size, and shrinkage and decline would be almost certain.

This is also a problem that the Council of Masked Lords is eager to solve.

They wanted to send troops to prove themselves, but were afraid that losing the battle would lead to more serious consequences, which directly led to severe turmoil in the Sword Bay region.

"What do you want from Waterdeep?"

After a long silence, Khelbourne finally stopped testing and started bargaining.

Although the private relationship and friendship between the two was pretty good, he didn't think Zuo Si would make concessions on such a matter.

As the saying goes, there can't be two tigers in one mountain, unless they are one male and one female.

If Zuo Si's goal was to build a west coast empire spanning the entire north and south, then city-states like Waterdeep, which held regional hegemony, would have to be suppressed until they lost the basis for their independent existence and were eventually incorporated into the empire.

Otherwise, as long as Waterdeep's influence exists, the towns and lords in the North who do not want to be annexed will always have someone to rely on and will never give up resistance and struggle.

"It's simple! I hope Waterdeep will agree to my three conditions.

First, you must immediately and unconditionally join the Trade Alliance and become a member of it; second, the spaceport in Waterdeep must be relocated to Athkatra, and no similar spaceports are allowed to be built from now on;

Third, I needed a seat as a Masked Lord so I could be deeply involved in Waterdeep's internal politics.

If these three conditions are met, I will have the army stationed outside of Athkatra march across the Misty Mountains to Baldur's Gate in the north.

Not only that, I will also gather the armies of Neverwinter, Dragonspear Castle, Luskan, Silvermoon Alliance, and the Nelanther Islands to form a huge coalition force.

Of course, if Waterdeep is interested, they can join in.

But this time, you will no longer be a leader, but a follower."

Zuo Si calmly put forward the conditions.

There is no doubt that he wants to gradually infiltrate Waterdeep from both the economic and political aspects, and ultimately bring it under his control.

Similarly, this is also sending a clear signal to the outside world that Sword Bay and even the entire west coast of Faerun will be incorporated into the territory of a huge empire, and even a powerful force like Waterdeep is no exception.

Having been the Lord of Waterdeep for so many years, Khelben obviously knew very well what it would mean if he agreed to these three conditions.

He did not respond immediately, but cast a spell to pass the content to several other lords.

After receiving a reply about ten or twenty minutes later, the great wizard took a deep breath and said, "We can agree to the first and second points, but not the third.

The Masked Lord System is the foundation for Waterdeep to maintain the stability of its own political power, and interference from external forces must not be allowed.

But we can accept a spectator without voting rights.

Also, when relocating the spaceport, you must ensure that the mages in Waterdeep can also use it, and give them sufficient compensation at one time.

If you agree, we can reach an agreement now.

In addition, Waterdeep is willing to provide 1,500 soldiers, 50 arcane spellcasters, and 30 priests to join the coalition."

Apparently, in the eyes of the Masked Lord of Waterdeep, the spaceport is actually far less important than most people imagine.

After all, a magic ship is not something that ordinary people can afford.

Anyone who can control a magic ship to travel through space or even between planes and crystal walls is at least a great wizard, or a race like the Githyanki that has developed a space civilization.

The characteristic of these guys is that they don't care about the lives of ordinary people at all, and they will not fill their ships with food, cloth, condiments, handicraft raw materials and other necessities of life. They mainly trade in high value-added magical knowledge, items, scrolls, gems, etc.

It does not play any role in stabilizing the situation in Waterdeep.

At the same time, it may also attract sudden attacks from creatures from other planes.

The inter-dimensional portal that suddenly opened above Waterdeep in DR 1358 and the large number of gargoyles and tengu that appeared with it were the troubles caused by the spaceport.

In addition, the entire spaceport may receive no more than thirty magic ships a year, and the tax revenue it provides is extremely limited, so it is no wonder that it is not taken seriously.

In fact, Waterdeep isn't the only city with a spaceport on Faerun. There's also a bigger one on the elves' Evermeet Isle, which even has a space fleet stationed there all year round.

Of course, the "space fleet" here may be different from what most people on Earth imagine.

There are neither so-called giant ships and cannons, nor various advanced equipment and energy weapons.

Many magical ships look no different than wooden sailing ships sailing on the sea.

It's just that it's endowed with powerful magical power, which allows it to travel freely in space and even between planes, protecting the members inside from the effects of vacuum and other harsh environments.

The real purpose of these magic ships is not to trade, but to defend against the large-scale invasion of the Githyanki and occasionally conduct inter-dimensional exploration.

Its combat capability also depends on the spellcasters and other combatants on board.

"make a deal!"

Zuo Si agreed without even thinking about it.

He never expected to be able to reach into the inner workings of Waterdeep's ruling structure all at once, and he was already quite satisfied to achieve the first two goals.

Especially the spaceport.

Maybe it is not of much use to others, but he can use this thing to connect with other outer planes, which can play a key role in the development of magic civilization.

After all, the ultimate goal of any mature and powerful magical civilization is to enter the vast universe.

In the following time, both parties signed their names on two copies of the agreement.

At this point, Zuo Si finally temporarily took down the last difficult force in the north - Waterdeep City.

Politically, he has basically cleared all obstacles. What remains is to boil the frog in warm water, gradually control the towns through economic means, take back power bit by bit and finally achieve centralization and unification.

This is not an easy thing to do.

Because Elminster and the Harpers will do everything they can to interfere.

They may not be very good at construction, but they are definitely worth two for destruction.

Therefore, the road to unification of the North will definitely not be smooth sailing.

However, Zuo Si is confident that he can continue to play with these guys, and in repeated competitions, completely shatter their inner beliefs, and even cause them to suffer a mental breakdown and turn into a self-destructive madman or a walking corpse who has lost their ideals.

After collecting the signed agreement, Khelbourne immediately asked, "When do you plan to send troops?"

"No later than a week. I need to mobilize airships to transport the armies of other city-states and complete the assembly."

Zuo Si gave a specific deadline very clearly.

In fact, as early as the fall of Baldur's Gate, he had already issued orders to his subordinates and allies to assemble the army.

Among them, the Dark Elves, whose entire army was mobilized to fight in the basement of Dragonspear Castle, had assembled an army of more than a thousand people long ago. They launched several small-scale war exercises targeting the orcs and orc tribes in the High Wasteland, killing the latter miserably.

Ever since they showed up, all the monsters nearby have been avoiding Dragonspear Castle, fearing that they might be caught by these ferocious drow.

"Then it's settled! One week later, we will send troops to the south and the north at the same time."

After saying this, Khelbourne stood up and said goodbye, casting a teleportation spell and disappearing from the spot.

However, he did not return to Waterdeep, but appeared in the palace of the Kingdom of Cormyr not long after.

Seeing her husband suddenly arrive, Leila, who was resting, immediately stood up and asked, "How is it? Did you convince Soth?"

Khelbourne nodded slightly. "Yes. Although it cost a little, Soth finally agreed to lead the army to attack in a week. If nothing unexpected happens, Fuzzol Chamberlain will soon face a great defeat."

"What's the price?" Leila asked in a low voice.

"Waterdeep joins the Trade League, moves its spaceport to Athkatla, and the Masked Lords Council accepts a spectator.

Although Piergalen and several lords strongly opposed it, the vote was finally passed.

After all, although the conditions offered by Soth were harsh, they did not touch the most fundamental interests of Waterdeep City.

But I'm worried that this is just the beginning, and he will slowly extend his hand into the inner city of Waterdeep."

As he said this, Khelbourne couldn't help but sigh.

Because his position on this matter is somewhat contradictory.

On the one hand, he hoped that Zuo Si could accomplish the feat of unifying the west coast of Faerun and achieve some ultimate order;

On the other hand, he didn't want Waterdeep, which he regarded as his "home", to lose its most important characteristics and eventually become no different from other cities.

However, Leila was obviously not as entangled as her husband, and she smiled and comforted him, "Okay, don't think too much, just let everything go with the flow.

Anyway, no matter what Soth wants to do, it will never be a bad thing for the civilians living in this land.

And I have just convinced Yasan IV that he will launch a surprise attack from behind when necessary, cut off Sanfuzor Chamberlain's retreat, and intercept all the supplies that he wants to transport back to Zhentil Castle.

Oh, by the way, I also met Yalucel, who is known as the Iron Princess.

I have to say, she is much more interesting than I expected.”

"Oh? How is it interesting?"

Khelbourne asked casually with interest.

"Hmm - how should I put it?

Had she been a prince, she would have been the ideal heir to the House of Cormyr and a wise ruler like her father.

But unfortunately, she is neither a prince nor the first in line to the throne.

According to the succession laws of the Kingdom of Cormyr, she had no chance of ever getting her hands on the throne.

Also, I noticed that she seemed to be only interested in men who were stronger than herself.

So this action might be an opportunity.”

Leila's eyes flashed with a strange light, and it was obvious that she had thought of something.

I advise you not to do anything stupid!

Soth's wife can only be a descendant of Shane VII, which is related to the legal ownership of the two countries south of the entire west coast.

Soth would not make a mistake in this matter, and neither would Sean VII.

And it might even anger the Royal Family of Cormyr and make them feel humiliated."

"Haha, dear, you are mistaken, how could I make such a mistake.

I just want to introduce these two young people who have slightly similar personalities to each other.

As for whether there will be any sparks between them, that is none of my business.

After all, the great goddess of love and beauty, Suna, taught us that love is free and should not be subject to any form of constraints.

What's more, even if they can't become husband and wife, they can still be lovers or close friends, right?

Just think about it, once the West Coast Empire established by Soth forms an alliance with the Kingdom of Cormyr, it will almost completely block the westward expansion of Zhentil Keep, the Zhentarim, and the Red Mages of Cyre.

This is an absolutely wonderful thing for all of us.”

Leila winked playfully and whispered her thoughts into her husband's ear.

…

At the same time, Zuo Si, who was far away in the Mage Tower of Askatra, had no idea that someone was trying to bring him together with the Iron Princess Yalusel. He was currently standing in the dragon's nest training the golden dragon girl, Golsaniya.

At the moment, this inexperienced little fellow maintained his dragon form, lying on the open space that originally belonged to the Infernal Red Dragon Wilmes, eating the delicious food carefully prepared by the multifunctional construct chef, while enjoying the massage and scale scrubbing services provided by the goblin werewolf.

Perhaps because she eats well, sleeps well, and exercises less, she no longer looks as slim and thin as before. Instead, she looks slightly fleshy and plump.

估计照这个样子发展下去，用不了几年工夫就变得跟著名肥宅龙——希博恰德相差无几。

当然，最重要的并不是体型上的变化，而是思维方式和理念的变化。

要知道最开始的时候，这位正义感爆棚的金龙小妹妹可是对饲养和奴役地精这种事情充满了强烈的愤慨。

但是看看现在，她居然可以心安理得享受这些地精的服侍，甚至会提一些要求，比如说按摩的时候大力一点。

那左思是如何扭曲歌尔萨尼娅的认知，让她一步一步慢慢向着邪恶的深渊滑落呢？

答案非常简单！ 左思直接告诉金龙小妹妹，所有这些地精都是出于一种伟大高尚的情操，以及牺牲自我为其他人服务的精神。

它们以服务别人为荣、以帮助别人为乐，活着的全部意义就是为了让更多的人远离那些充满危险、肮脏和劳累的工作。

通过无限拔高地精狼人们的道德，从而实现美化饲养和奴役的邪恶本质。

毕竟在那么多代的人工筛选下，现如今所有的地精狼人不管是在思想意识方面还是基因层面，都已经完成了蜕变，根本没有任何反抗的意识。

在他它们的眼中，自己活着的意义就是为了主人服务，死后的尸体乃至灵魂也会成为奉献给主人。

所以在某种程度上，左思并没有撒谎或是欺骗，只是玩了一个偷换概念。

换成那些有经验的圣武士，肯定会分分钟拆穿。

但问题是歌尔萨尼娅并没有什么为人处世的经验，在向地精狼人们询问了一些问题之后，发现情况真的跟左思描述的一模一样，立刻被感动的稀里哗啦。

甚至把租借给安姆政府的奴工都当成了是地精们心甘情愿的高尚奉献。

渐渐的，她开始习惯了地精们提供的各种服务，并且觉得就算治不好无法飞行的“诅咒”在这里待一辈子其实也没什么不好。

起码自己可以过得非常舒服，经常还能听到魔蝠们讲的笑话，看到它们表演的情景喜剧，亦或是与那些来自贫民窟前来学习技能和知识的孩子们聊天解闷。

在歌尔萨尼娅的眼中，乐于助人、跟苦难之神伊尔玛特教会有着深入合作的左思，怎么看都是个守序善良的典范。

而且从来不摆选民和传奇法师的架子，哪怕对待身上衣服打满补丁的穷人小孩也永远挂着淡淡的微笑，甚至还会给他们分发一些看起来就十分昂贵的糖果、饮料和零食。

毫无疑问，金龙少女并不了解邪恶其实也有等级之分。

只有那些最低级、最不入流的邪恶之徒，才会肆无忌惮宣泄暴力、欺压良善。

稍微高级一点的会通过建立秩序和规则来让自己获得合法统治权，再通过法律手段来实现对底层民众的统治、压榨。

再高级一点的还会通过精神层面的奴役控制，让所有人心甘情愿的服从自己，主动为自己献出一切。

而左思的段位显然更高，将邪恶升级到了人性、欲望和哲学的层面，根本不屑于对那些手无寸铁的平民下手。

反而会凭借自己所掌握的知识和技术发展经济，让自己统治下的民众生活的比其他地方更好。

所以这种巨大的欺骗性导致了左思在很多人眼中，应该是守序善良或者守序中立才对，反正肯定不可能是守序邪恶。

你见过哪个守序邪恶的统治者会给吃不起饭的老人、残疾人、儿童免费分发食物？ 又见过哪个守序邪恶的统治者会积极废除奴隶制、推动原本脏乱差的贫民窟改造工程？ 至少在费伦大陆这个阵营和理念冲突十分严重的地方还从未出现过。

左思甚至会为了远在大海另外一边马兹特克大陆惨遭屠戮、抢劫的民众伸张正义！

因此他的行为非常的具有欺骗性，在露出真面目之前几乎能跟大多数人相处甚欢。

“嗝儿！啊！今天的烤全猪真是太美味了！我吃饱了！”

将最后一块切好的猪肉扔进嘴里后，歌尔萨尼娅终于发出了无比满足的呻吟声，伸出舌头舔了舔油腻的嘴唇。

一旁负责服侍的地精们赶忙冲上来，以极快的动作将盘子和吃剩的骨头、垃圾清理干净，然后送上一份酸甜口味的饮料，同时点上一块上等熏香，驱散食物残留的味道。

由于有之前伺候过维尔梅斯的经验，所以这些地精一个个都轻车熟路，哪怕是看着都给人一种赏心悦目的感觉。

左思眼睛里闪过一抹幽光，微微翘起嘴角询问道：“如何，你这些天过得还好吗？抱歉，我最近有点忙，因此没顾得上来探望你。”

“哈哈哈哈！没事啦！难道你注意到我都长胖了吗？”歌尔萨尼娅大笑着拍了拍突起的肚皮自嘲道。

“不，这不叫胖，应该叫丰腴。

相信现在变成类人形态，一定会让很多的青少年为之着迷。

而且你正在长身体的时候，多吃点有助于在成年之后获得更强壮的爪子和翅膀。”

左思不动声色的恭维道。

有之前调教维尔梅斯的经验，他基本对于巨龙的习性了如指掌。

不管是善良阵营的金属龙还是邪恶阵营的色彩龙，其骨子里都有着一种傲慢自大的天性，外在体现就是只爱听好话，会自动过滤那些批评和指责。

正如预料中的一样，当听到夸奖自己的身材和魅力时，歌尔萨尼娅眼睛里顿时透露出毫不掩饰的喜悦，立刻施展法术变化成为精灵的样子，故意装出一副矜持的模样低下头边看边问：“真的吗？我怎么一点都没感觉到呢？”

“看看你丰满凸起的上围，还有圆润挺翘的臀部，这可都是女性最具有魅力的地方。相信我，以前那些同伴看到你现在的样子，一定会惊掉下巴的。”

左思饶有兴致打量着金龙少女的人类形态给出评价。

比起之前那种细长、干瘦的骨感美女，他显然更喜欢现在这种稍微丰满一点的。

再次得到肯定的歌尔萨尼娅脸上顿时浮现出一抹红晕，有些不好意思的回应道：“谢谢你的夸奖。不过我现在终究还是一条不能飞的金龙……”

一提起不能飞这件事情，她立刻变得有些沮丧。

“别那么自卑。就算不能飞，你在我眼中依旧是最美丽漂亮的金龙女士。”

说着，左思伸出双手捧起对方的脸颊，注视着那双闪耀着金色光芒的瞳孔。

歌尔萨尼娅显然从未跟异性有过如此亲密的举动，顿时感觉紧张、心跳加速，浑身上下不由自主的开始燥热，呼吸也变得十分急促。

就在她满脑子胡思乱想，疯狂担心如果接吻的话，自己牙缝里的食物残渣是否会导致什么灾难性后果时，左思突然松开了手，用轻柔的动作帮忙捋了捋鬓角垂下来的长发，自顾自的继续说道：“更何况这种诅咒只是暂时的，我会想办法让你重新获得飞行能力。别担心，一切都会好起来的。”

“嗯！”

歌尔萨尼娅赶忙慌乱的点了下头，也不知道自己此刻的心情究竟是松了一口气，还是有些失落。

左思敏锐的捕捉到了这一点，立刻浮现出满意的表情，突然话锋一转：“对了，我过些日子准备发兵北上去驱逐散提尔堡的军队，想要让你帮忙联络一下之前那些善良阵营的金属龙，可以吗？”

“没问题！不过我现在不能飞了，可能速度会慢上许多。”

歌尔萨尼娅连想都没想便答应下来。

她可没有忘记自己身受重伤差点死掉，而且还中了不能飞行的诅咒，统统都是傅佐尔·钱伯瑞干的。

所以任何能够打击这家伙的事情，她都会毫不犹豫的去做。

“没关系，慢慢来。

我光是集结军队就需要花费至少一个星期，所以你只要在一个星期之内尽可能多的邀请同伴加入就好。

给，这是一个传送魔法指环，可以让你每天施展三次传送术，能够弥补不能飞行带来的不便。”

说罢，左思将事先准备好的魔法戒指轻轻放在金龙少女的手心。

毫无疑问，对于刚刚离开父母庇护连一分钱财产都没有的青少年巨龙来说，这绝对是一件价值不菲的魔法物品。

歌尔萨尼娅立刻把戒指套在自己手上，激动的跳起来搂住左思脖子，在后者的脸颊上重重的亲吻了一下。

“谢谢！你可真是个好人！我保证，这次绝对不会让你失望。”

伴随着最后一个字脱口而出，她立刻挥了挥手启动戒指的传送魔法消失在原地。

仅仅一秒钟之后，龙巢后方阴暗的角落里就传来一个熟悉的声音。

"Tsk, tsk, tsk! My dear Soth, you really amaze me. Seducing and playing with an innocent underage golden dragon girl? Your taste is really unique."

Soon, a woman in a fiery red dress slowly walked out of the darkness.

She was none other than the human form of the Red Dragon Queen of Purgatory - Wilmes.

As the newly crowned Dragon King of the southern west coast of Faerun, she has obviously acquired her own powerful aura after not being seen for a while.

Just look at the fearful eyes of the ordinary goblins, werewolves and dire wolves around him to know how much this guy has grown now.

"Why, are you jealous? Because I have never treated you so gently?" Zuo Si teased in a half-joking tone.

"Humph! I don't envy that stupid little girl who didn't even realize she had fallen into a trap. She is just a plaything, and I am the great Dragon King!"

While saying this, Wilmes quickly transformed into a dragon form and raised his chin proudly.

But the next second, her pride and pride were instantly shattered.

Zuo Si transformed into a two-headed infernal dragon at lightning speed, pinning him to the ground with overwhelming brutality, emitting a suffocating force of destruction, and whispered into his eardrum with his mouth close to his eardrum: "No, dear Wilmes.

In fact, there is no difference between you and Gorsaniya, you are both my playthings.

I can give her as much power as you anytime I want.

Do you think that after defeating Balagos "Flying Flame" you are the real Dragon King?

Don't be naive!

To me now, there is no difference between crushing a dragon king and crushing a bug.

Perhaps only the legendary dragon, Tchazzar, is a bit of a challenge.

So don't be arrogant or complacent.

You have only just begun your quest for power."

"This...is this your current dragon form?"

Wilmes widened his eyes in shock, hardly able to believe what he saw.

Because in her understanding, only those who become the chosen ones of Tiamat, the dragon god, can grow a second or third head and obtain the breath weapons of other types of colorful dragons.

But now, Zuo Si, who clearly does not believe in any gods, has two heads, one red and one blue.

"Yes! It's interesting, isn't it?

The red one can spew out hellfire, while the blue one can spew out deadly lightning.

And I can use my own blood to mass produce offspring.

The Hell Plane has endowed me with immense power and potential that is unimaginable to mortals."

As he spoke, Zuo Si released the claws that were pressing down on the opponent, and quickly transformed back into human form, feeling the amazing power contained in his body.

Wilmes also changed back to human form, his eyes revealed a strong sense of awe, and asked in a low voice: "Then how can I make myself stronger?"

Zuo Si replied nonchalantly: “Excavate the purgatory bloodline in you.

You must know that the mark I left in your soul is more than just a mark.

It can grant you a lot of extra powers, and even transform you into a hybrid of a devil and a dragon.

By the way, what's the matter that brought you back here?"

"Ah! I would have forgotten if you hadn't reminded me. I want the magical object that controlled my brain before!"

Wilmes stated his purpose without hesitation.

"Strange thing?"

Zuo Si was stunned for a moment, but soon realized what the guy in front of him wanted to do. He raised his eyebrows in surprise and asked, "Are you planning to put the magic item into Balagos's brain and completely control him?"

Wilmes nodded immediately: "That's right! Balagos is a powerful ancient red dragon with great recycling value.

It would be a waste to just lock him up and bleed him every day, and it's not a long-term solution either.

Once he recovers from his injuries, this guy will definitely find a way to escape. I must find a way to solve this hidden danger once and for all.

If I use a magical object to completely control him, he can help me deal with enemies that are not convenient for me to deal with personally.

For example, those members of the good camp."

"Hahahaha! You've really become smarter. You can even use this kind of trick."

Zuo Si couldn't help but burst into laughter.

It has to be said that Wilmes's ability to realize the use of "black gloves" to reduce his presence and avoid attracting too much hatred is indeed an incredible growth.

He had no reason to refuse, so he took out the jar containing the strange object and handed it over.

Wilmes quickly took it and held it in his arms. He gently tapped the glass wall and said with a slightly emotional tone: "Long time no see, old friend. Now we are going to continue our cooperation. But this time, it's not me you have to control."

"Don't worry, I will fulfill my responsibilities. But you have to make sure Balagos is completely incapacitated. Otherwise, I will be hit head-on by the flame breath and will die instantly."

The wonder responds via the telepathic link.

Although it has the ability to think independently and make judgments, it has no emotions and is closer to the absolute rationality of the Mind Flayer.

"Got it! I'll take care of everything."

After getting what he wanted, Wilmes immediately stood up and said goodbye.

After witnessing the terrifying oppressive feeling when Zuo Si transformed into a giant dragon, she once again found the motivation to become stronger. She planned to go back and immediately begin to integrate more Purgatory bloodline, using the power of the devil to take her strength to a higher level.
