Casting spells

More importantly, Zhang Cheng hopes to find out the ways of transmitting and using the world's energy from the dragon.

After all, since he squeezed out a lot of information about the "Children of the Forest" from "Littlefinger" last time, he discovered that these nearly extinct magical races actually used a behavior like a primitive religious ceremony to control the existence in the air. Manipulate the energies, and finally form the spells you need.

In addition, the "children of the forest" seem to have a technology that can store energy in plants, especially plants called weirwoods.

It is through this method that they have passed the "energy exhaustion period" again and again.

Until the ancestors landed on the Westeros continent, they destroyed forests and felled weirwoods in large quantities, causing the children of the forest to lose their foundation for survival. In the end, the number became smaller and smaller, and they were on the verge of extinction.

However, because the information is basically pictographic characters and patterns, it is very difficult to decipher, and coupled with the age and incompleteness, Zhang Cheng was still at a loss for a while.

But with the arrival of the red comet, the mysterious energy in the air became more and more dense. He felt that he could find a simple and convenient method first, so he shifted the main research direction to the dragon.

Dragons are magical creatures after all, as evidenced by the rise and fall of House Targaryen.

During the period of Aegon I the Conqueror, when the mystical energy was at its most active, his mount, Balerion the Black Death, grew to an astonishing size, and could even swallow a bison in one bite.

But when the mysterious energy in the air gradually became thinner, the size of the hatched dragons was not as good as that of the other, and in the end they couldn't even hatch at all.

This also means that although dragons also need to eat, they are essentially magical creatures that rely on mysterious energy to survive.

If he can figure out how the dragon uses the energy in the air, then Zhang Cheng will also find the key to break through the restriction.

Of course, it's not easy, especially since he has to deal with many emergencies, such as...

boom! boom! boom!

"Master Mason, are you in the room?" Elo Tyrell's voice came through the crack of the door.

"Damn it!" Zhang Cheng cursed in a low voice, and quickly pulled up a black cloth to cover all the shady experimental equipment and materials. At the same time, he lightly kicked the young dragon's right foot, signaling him to hide under the bed.

After everything returned to "normal", he took a deep breath, opened the door, pulled the back of the girl's hand and kissed it, and said softly, "Good evening, my beautiful fiancée, is there anything I can do for you? "

"No, it's nothing. I... I'm just a little bored, and I want to talk to someone." Ai Luolianshan blushed slightly, and responded a little embarrassed.

"Oh——Sorry, I was negligent. Why don't I take you for a walk by the beach?" Zhang Cheng quickly pretended to be enlightened and suggested.

In fact, he has long known how cruel it is to let a young and beautiful girl sit in a room all day long, especially when there is no one around this girl who can talk.

But in order to squeeze out more time for research, he deliberately turned a blind eye to it. Today, when the other party came to him, he was naturally not very good at refusing.

This little love game must continue at least until the Tyrell family is completely controlled and Highgarden is controlled.

"I...can I go out?" Ai Luo's eyes widened, her face full of disbelief.

Although King's Landing City has not yet heard the news that Renly and the Tyrell family have joined forces to set off a rebellion, anyone with a little intelligence will understand that it is only a matter of time.

As a member of the Tyrell family, once she is exposed to the public eye, she may be taken as a hostage immediately.

Zhang Cheng smiled and assured: "Don't worry, as long as I'm with you, anyone who wants to harm you needs to ask about this sword."

In order to increase his persuasiveness, he also deliberately pulled out half of the magic sword, the Ecstasy Envoy.

The breath of evil and death made Ai Luo take half a step back in fright, and asked with some uncertainty: "Your sword...?"

"Relax, it's just a slightly sharper weapon. Because I have killed too many enemies, it is inevitable that it will be contaminated with some hostility. Let's go, while the city of King's Landing is still calm, I will take you to the beach for a walk." Relax. It is estimated that when the war comes, the city will immediately turn into purgatory, and it will be very dangerous no matter where you go." After finishing speaking, Zhang Cheng closed the door casually, put his arms around the girl's slender waist, and dragged her out of the house without any explanation.

As a person who pays special attention to privacy and secrecy, he doesn't want anyone to enter his bedroom, not even his closest bed partner, not to mention Eero Tyrell is just a tool to achieve his goal in his eyes. Far from being an intimate companion.

Just like that, a pair of young men and women who seem to be in harmony with each other cross the street and walk towards the sea, completely unaware that there is always a sneaky figure following behind them not far away...

Chapter 125 Change

In the largest brothel on Silk Street, Petyr Baelish hid in his own room as usual, checking the information passed by his subordinates.

Although he didn't train a team of "little birds" composed of underage children like "Octospider" Varys, he was not bad at all.

To be precise, with the years of being a tax collector in Seagull Town and later becoming the Minister of Finance, he successfully used his business skills to attract and gather a large number of businessmen. It can be said that as long as there are businessmen haunting, there is likely to be his eyes and ears.

Unlike many people who imagined that he didn't have any background strength, behind Petyr Baelish there was actually quite a lot of power hidden behind him, including several nobles in the valley who relied on trade to make their fortunes.

It was also with the support of these nobles that he dared to instigate Lysa Tully to poison her husband Jon Arryn to death, and then personally ignited the flames of chaos and war, waiting for an opportunity to usurp the territory and land that originally belonged to the Irene family. title.

However, due to Zhang Cheng's sudden appearance, great uncertainty appeared in the original careful plan, especially the mysterious magic that could not be measured by common sense, which made him feel that it was a potential threat.

You must know that as an ambitious conspiracy master, he naturally cannot sit still and have already sent people around to collect a lot of information about the children of the forest.

But unfortunately, neither the so-called knowledgeable bachelor nor the alchemist who can create the terrifying "wildfire" can do nothing about it.

After all, the Children of the Forest have disappeared from people's sight for too long, so long that only a few stories handed down vaguely mention these real aborigines of Westeros.

As for the pictures and hieroglyphs they left behind, no one can decipher them at all.

Just as Petyr Baelish frowned, trying to find a way to counterbalance his opponent, there was a slight sound from the closed door.

Immediately after, a metal hook and lock came in through the crack of the door, and the bolt was lifted very deftly. In less than two seconds, the thick wooden door creaked, and a petite figure flashed in from outside. .

"Yana, how many times have I told you to knock on the door before entering my room." Petyr Baelish sighed without looking up.

Obviously, he was quite familiar with this intruder, so familiar that he could recognize him just by his voice.

"Aha! Sorry, my lord, I'm used to it." Saying that, the petite figure took off the hood, revealing a delicate face like a doll.

There is no doubt that this is a young girl around fourteen or fifteen years old.

Judging from her silky black hair and brown eyes, she probably came from the free city on the other side of the sea.

Baelish shrugged his shoulders with a nonchalant smile, put down the messy note in his hand, and crossed his hands in front of his chest: "Tell me, what valuable information have you discovered through the past few days of tracking? "

The girl named Yana raised the corners of her mouth and responded in a rather playful tone: "There are quite a few, which part do you want to listen to first? You must know that this Sir Mason is not easy. I have wanted to listen to it several times. Get close to his bedroom and almost be found."

"Of course it's the part related to my old friend Varys. How about it, is there any conflict between the two of them? Who won?" Baelish's eyes revealed strong expectations.

"Sorry, my lord, I'm afraid to disappoint you. As far as I know, the conflict between the two of them lasted only a very short time, and then they re-emerged as friends. Also, your old friend's appearance seems to have suddenly changed. He is much older, maybe only he himself knows what happened inside." Yana quickly said what she knew.

"Oh? Are you sure?" Baelish raised his eyebrows in surprise.

Yana nodded without thinking: "Yes! Your old friend looks like an old man in his 70s and [-]s now with loose skin. Oh, and I found out that Eero Tyrell is currently living in Sir Mason's house. In the yard, the two held hands and walked by the seaside a few hours ago, their intimacy is really enviable."

Baelish stroked his chin, as if thinking about something.

After a full minute, he smiled and said to himself: "It's interesting, Varys was subdued, it's not like his character. It seems... I need to meet with him, and exchange Get some information."

"Uh... my lord, I must remind you that according to the news from the eyeliner at the castle, after the two met, Lord Varys locked himself in the room and no one was seen." The girl reminded with a playful wink. .

"Hmph! Don't worry, even if Varys doesn't see everyone, he will choose to meet me. After all, to some extent, we are the same kind of people..."

After saying that, Baelish stood up and threw all the notes into the brazier, then walked out of the room and headed towards the Red Keep.
