Crown of Chaos

Manakone-Anaheim sat in his seat, facing the deal proposed by the big devil, he was a little hesitant.

Divine Son Bane was born more than twenty years ago. Before he was born, some elites in the Zhentarim tried their best to forge an identity for him - the legitimate son of the Anaheim family, a famous arms merchant family.

This identity is so seamless because the elites of the Zhentarim began preparing very early to forge a false identity based on Manakorn's birth date and the character of the Son of God. This arms family was once prominent and owned several trade routes, and It is absolutely neutral in any war. As long as you give money, you can do anyone's business.

This is another major attempt by the Zhentarim to infiltrate commerce in the central region of the kingdom.

However, the accident happened so quickly. During the turbulent years, the lady of wealth, Woking, disappeared, the god of tyranny, Bane, fell, and Manakorn-Anaheim broke away from the shackles and took care of the remnants of the Anaheim family. wait.

As a result, he gained the staggering wealth accumulated by his family, which he could use to dominate every aspect.

As the Son of Bane, Manakorn was also filled with a sense of crisis, not only from other Sons of Bane, but also from Cyric the Dark Sun.

He needed an elite army to help him destroy the other Sons of God and help him retake Zhentil Keep, so he chose Cormyr to lay the eggs.

By choosing Cormyr, he will control this country. He has already controlled Duke Caspar, and what he needs to do now is to control the regent Alice Ser.

Everything was going smoothly at first, but before he knew it, he had already won over nearly half of the Purple Dragon Knights. He had suppressed Duke Caspar and made him a puppet, and most of Cormyr's navy also secretly stood by. to his side.

The reason the Navy sided with him was simple.

First of all, the Queen Regent appointed the Minister of Shipping and took away a large amount of the navy's income, which made the navy dissatisfied.

Secondly, Cormyr has a long coastline, and sea trade is particularly important. The navy suffered little losses in the Goblin War, so it retains considerable strength. They originally hoped to have greater influence and expand the navy's military budget.

And that's where Manakorn's confidence lies.

The Purple Dragon Knights cannot be dispatched at will, and the same applies to the garrisons and the armies of the feudal nobles in various places. This can easily make Aliceser wary.

But one army escaped the regent's attention.

That is the Cormyr Marine Corps, also known as the Cormyr Naval Special Warfare Corps.

The navy here in Susar has five special operations legions, namely the "Vulture Legion", "Flying Tiger Legion", "Pegasus Legion", "Golden Bat Legion" and "Black Dragon Legion".

These specially organized naval special warfare regiments are included in the navy but can go ashore to fight at any time. They have rich combat experience and are not subject to jurisdiction. They can be deployed quickly and directly, bypassing the royal family without the permission of the regent.

Manakorn has spent a lot of money to win over the First, Third, and Fifth Special Forces Corps, namely the Vulture, Flying Tiger, and Pegasus.

Rubbing the slender glass bottle of the Bone Dragon Sculpture in his hand, Son of God Benn had already planned the entire situation, and finally quickly mobilized three special operations regiments to enter the city to control the situation.

However, now Aaron Salian appears halfway through.

Manakorn couldn't be sure what Aaron would do, what he could do.

This kid seems to only have elite level strength, but his magic is weird. In theory, Salian has no influence in the aristocratic circle, but he just created the Silver Chamber of Commerce.

All this gave God Son Bane a headache.

But it's not without good news.

The Devil Duke on the first level of Baator Hell approached him to negotiate a condition.

This condition is exciting~

It's just that God Son Benn still has some scruples about cooperating with the devil.

As a son of tyranny, Manakorn has his own persistence and pride. Someone once suggested that Manakorn take the initiative and arrest Aaron's aunt and uncle to threaten him.

Son of God Benn slapped the opponent in the face with a big ear-scratcher and cursed him loudly.

Who do you think I am?

Are you considered a Dark Sun idiot?

He didn't bother to do this kind of thing, and he wouldn't do it. Manakorn had always hated such things.

I am the glorious Son of Tyranny! Not Cyric's idiot!

For the glory of my father!

Manakorn thought and slowly smiled.

Let’s start with Queen’s Blade!

"Someone, call Alvaro over."

…………

The establishment of the Silver Chamber of Commerce can be regarded as one of the recent major events in Susar, but even so, the last few days of the New Year holiday still seem much more depressed than in previous years. The huge impact of the goblin war on Cormyr has not disappeared, and the streets are full of people. There are still fewer pedestrians than in previous years. Due to the war, trade has been shrinking in recent years. In previous years, Cormyr was located in the center of the country, even civilians had endless work to do, but now due to the influx of a large number of refugees, they have occupied the bottom ecological niche. , the wages of ordinary workers have dropped again and again, and they have to be picky about their jobs. Many families who rely on selling coolies to live are now living in very tight poverty.

There have been many violent conflicts between the local Susar people and the Arabel refugees. The relationship between the two parties has gradually become more and more intense, from goodwill acceptance at the beginning, to mutual indifference, to mutual hostility now.

There is a saying among the people that Susar should belong to the locals of Susar, and foreigners should get out of Susar. Some of the local chaos, depression and security problems in Susar were caused by Arabel refugees.

This statement is obviously nonsense, but it has a special market among local civilians.

Meanwhile, Alice Searle is also on the move.

The regent princess focused her attention on the nobles during this time. She soon realized that with the previous chaos in the kingdom, the nobles took the opportunity to plunder a large amount of land. After the actual inspection of Queen's Blade, Alice Searle successively Punished as many as 69 nobles, and returned a large amount of land they had occupied privately to free people, or awarded it to soldiers who had meritorious service in the war.

The common people who received the land showed their highest level of heartfelt love to the Queen Regent.

Secondly, Alice Thel also realized the shortcomings of the Queen's Blade. She appointed a new Queen's Blade commander Yuri Barkov to replace the predecessor, limiting the power of the Queen's Blade, especially prohibiting them from eating privately. Naka required bribes, prohibited indiscriminate lynching, and abolished the Queen's Blade's right to privately convict.

Finally, the Princess Regent openly advocated frugality, starting with the reduction of royal expenses.

This set of combined punches ensured the livelihood of civilians. Businessmen gradually gained confidence in Susar's order. At the same time, the strictly controlled food prices did not fluctuate.

At the same time, Aliceser also actively sent envoys to contact many kingdoms and achieved good results.

It can be seen that the status of the regent princess is gradually becoming more and more stable. Although the people are worried, they generally think that the situation is getting better.

Aaron's Silver Chamber of Commerce in particular also injected a shot in the arm into Cormier's situation.

Of course, the most interesting thing is that Alice Sel and Ms. Alustriel of Silvermoon City have reached a consensus to publicly declare the Dark Sun Church as an illegal belief.

At the same time, Alice Searle was also aware of the turmoil in Susar, and the Queen Regent began to mobilize Cormyr's army. Many generals were transferred away, and some generals were transferred back.

General Joachim Pope from Guangze was appointed by her as the new commander of the Sousal Guard.

Many people believe that the Queen Regent is playing a game of power by changing the generals in the kingdom, but Aaron does not think so. Apparently after being reminded by him and Charlotte, Alice Searle has realized that Here comes the threat from within.

Aaron himself didn't care so much. After the Silver Chamber of Commerce was established, Aaron took Eleanor home that day and immediately focused all his attention on heaven-based magic.

That night, he was alone in his study, testing his new magic.

Aegir, the wind of heaven, the wind of Sigma, connects all possible futures like a river, and peeks into the possibilities in the turbulent flow of countless fates through the changes in celestial phenomena and starry skies.

Heavenly magic is divided into three areas.

Astrological predictions.

Weather control.

Manipulate fate.

Astrology predictions believe that everything from predicting whether it will rain tomorrow to the fate of a dynasty can be predicted through changes in astrology, celestial bodies, and climate, thereby giving a glimpse of a corner of destiny.

Weather control is very simple. You can cast spells to control the weather, manipulate lightning, and summon meteors.

As for the final manipulation of destiny, this is a very advanced field. It is said that if the wind of heaven has been cultivated to the extreme, it can control and manipulate the destiny of others.

Aaron's comment was "Okay, that's Tzeentchian."

Following the power of the wind of heaven, Aaron sank his consciousness into the wind of heaven, rising with the waves and rising to the sky.

His magic power now is enough to support him to do such a thing, and as his soul merges into the wind of heaven, a new picture unfolds in front of him.

In the icy void, there are countless celestial bodies, from the sun to satellites to comets, sentient storms roar in the sky, and stars shine in the sky.

There are crystal wall systems floating in the void one after another. Outside the crystal wall system is endless "phlogiston". These phlogistons are blocked by the crystal wall system. Otherwise, if they flow into the crystal wall system, they will burn everything. Something alive.

Between different crystal wall systems, only portals or "magic ships" can pass.

Occasionally, some stars can be seen between the crystal wall systems, but these stars are not real planets, but the remains of the dead gods. They are floating in the universe, waiting quietly.

It is difficult for gods to truly die, but gods are not immortal in the complete sense. Under certain conditions, gods may truly die, but they may also return at any time.

A typical example is the famous Lady of Mist and Phantom Goddess Leila. This goddess with eccentric and changeable personality died at the hands of Cyric the Dark Sun at the end of the Year of Turmoil. It is said that she was actually killed and took away the throne and priesthood. Now Any prayers could no longer be answered from the Phantom Goddess, and the divine magic she bestowed no longer existed. Therefore, Lyra's church was disbanded. Some believers joined the Cyric Church, while others scattered.

But only a small group of believers firmly believed that Lyra was not dead. They claimed that their goddess had only fooled Cyric through a "highest deception."

It is said that as long as there are always people who firmly believe in this, then the phantom goddess Leila may still return again - it is just a slight possibility, but gods are gods, and the realm of gods cannot be understood by mortals.

Aaron immersed his soul into the starry sky, and a silver-white bond was formed under his will, leading to the boundless sea of ​​stars deep in the sky.

The link to Heavenly Wind is complete.

A four-ring magic and a five-ring magic immediately appeared in Aaron's mind.

Four Rings of Magic: Wind Explosion.

Summons a powerful storm that sweeps over enemies, impeding most projectile ranged weapons for a short time and blowing up all mortal creatures weighing less than 200 pounds.

Five Ring Magic: Tesla's Arc.

Release it on your body and designate an enemy. When the enemy is within 40 feet of you, the arc from your body will continuously hit the enemy. The first damage is equivalent to a three-ring lightning bolt. If the enemy Without leaving this range, the arc will continue to increase in power, becoming more fierce each time.

Starting from the third time, the person hit by the arc must pass a Constitution saving throw, otherwise he will be paralyzed. After that, the difficulty of the saving throw gradually increases with the number of arc attacks.

Arc can attack up to six times.

Level-up Casting: Each time you level up, the range of the arc increases by 10 feet, and the number of attacks increases by two.

In addition to these two heaven-based magics, Aaron also got a trick.

Starry sky signature.

Starry sky signature Through the power of the wind of heaven, Aaron can leave his own message in the starry sky within the crystal wall system. This message can be clear text, images, or obscure hints, such as a certain star three Long, three short and three long flashes to convey the password.

As for more about the future of Heavenly Wind, Aaron can only continue to explore it.

Aaron withdrew from the power of the heavenly wind. He could feel that there was a twist of light from the top of his head that reached straight into the sky, connecting the stars to him.

This is also the drawback of heaven-based magic.

He must be in a place where he can see the sky, or at least in the surface world to release heavenly magic.

Wait, stars, sky?

Aaron vaguely grasped something, he pinched his chin and thought.

The power of the stars, isn't it...

"Dong dong dong~" At this moment, the door rang: "Aaron?"

"Eleanor? Please come in." Aaron's eyes glowed.

A bright gauze long nightgown enveloped the figure of Miss Pastor.

The waist is slender, the figure is exquisite, the temperament of the whole body is calm and elegant, the perfect face is like moonlight, ethereal and dreamy, a pair of beautiful feet are wearing white bow satin high heels, the insteps of the silk feet, and the moon-white pearl stockings on the ankles are reflecting charmingly Light.

Eleanor, who had untied her braid and let her blond hair fall, turned red. Miss Pastor lowered her head, not daring to look into Aaron's eyes: "Well... Aunt Meili asked me to ask you, do you want to take a bath at night?"

Aaron was stunned for a moment, then smiled meaningfully.

"Bath? Of course you have to take a bath!"

Yes, the New Year has passed!
