Journey of the Infinite Wizard
Chapter 36: Cassandra
But not every witch in the past is happy to be the monarch's concubine.
Cassandra in front of her is an obvious example. She does not want to be Manon's queen, and she is dissatisfied with Manon's brutal rule. Therefore, she always tried her best to refuse Manon's marriage proposal. At the same time, slow down the time for Manon to attack the world. Because, once Manon completely pacified the place, it was time for her to completely become a canary kept by Manon.
"You are Manon's witch, why do you have such an idea?" Jiang Ning still wanted to hear Cassandra's rebellious words. He didn't know whether his arrival would bring about some changes, so he was cautious. One point is as it should be.
Cassandra said with a little pain: "I hate Manon. He has imprisoned me since I was a few years old. He needs my strength to help him conquer other tribes. He is cruel and cold-blooded... and, He still wants me. But, I don't like him, I want to escape from him. Escape from this cage that traps me!" She shed a few tears sadly: "But, although I am a wizard, I have no power , except to be able to foretell the future. I have no power whatsoever, and I cannot escape Manon!"
Jiang Jing listened to Cassandra's confiding quietly, and said, "But, do you know that staying by Manon's side is at least safe and food is safe. But if you leave Manon, then in the wild , it will be difficult for you to live for three days!"
...
Jiang Ning is telling the truth, don't forget, this is Egypt. A large part of the land here is completely covered by desert! Only a handful of land that matters farming! Relying on one Nile River, it feeds the whole of Egypt.
In the wild, with a woman like Cassandra, she doesn't have the proper survival skills. No martial arts, no witchcraft, once in the wild. If she was not killed by other carnivores, she would die of thirst, and the sun would make her dizzy, until she passed out due to heat stroke, and finally died of dehydration!
"Even so, I want to escape! Even if I die outside, I don't want to stay by Manon's side. I'm fed up with this place, I hate it!" Cassandra wept sadly, her beautiful eyes looked at Looking at Jiang Ning: "Ning, can you help me?"
Jiang Ning looked at her deeply, and after a long time: "I can help you, but you have to tell me how to heal my soul!"
Cassandra thought for a while: "The soul has never been a mysterious domain that mortals can get their hands on. Except for gods, mortals are almost impossible to find a way. I know a way, and that is a spring full of life force. Relying on that spring, perhaps It can heal the soul. Another way is to seek help from the gods! But, how is this possible!"
Jiang Ning took a deep breath, Cassandra's words were the same as Imerton's.
He tried to find the fountain of eternal life, but he didn't know the exact location of the fountain of eternal life. Although he knew the place, he didn't know the exact location at all. Therefore, looking for the fountain of eternal life is also nonsense.
"Do you know the fountain of eternal life? Cassandra!"
"Fountain of Eternal Life?" She looked at Jiang Ning in surprise.
"Yes!"
Cassandra frowned and said, "I seem to have heard of it!"
"Really?"
"But..." She frowned again, making Jiang Ning very nervous: "But what?"
Cassandra stretched her brows, and said in her charming voice: "According to legend, the fountain of eternal life was created by the gods! It seems that it is used to reward mortals who have made great contributions, but no one knows where it is. Only this spring is known. , hidden in a paradise, it is said that it is the kingdom of the gods! No worries, no hunger, no disease and pain, it is like a paradise."
"Unfortunately, I don't know where this place is either!"
"I know where this spring is located!"
"Really?" She was surprised. It seemed that Jiang Ning would not know the location of the legendary location.
"only…"
"What's wrong?" Cassandra wondered.
Jiang Ning scratched his head, and some children got used to it: "Although I know the place, I don't know exactly where the spring of eternal life is. Without a guide, finding a legendary spring in the vast mountains is no less difficult than finding a needle in a haystack !"
"Oh, what a pity!"
Cassandra seemed a little disappointed, Jiang Ning was surprised by this. However, he soon understood what was going on. After all, witches are also women, and immortality is very attractive to people. What's more, for a young and beautiful woman, this temptation is more deadly than anything.
...
The conversation with Cassandra made Jiang Ning understand that this witch is usually aloof. However, that was just her disguise. It is a necessary disguise for her survival, and once the disguise is temporarily removed, she is also a normal woman. Moreover, this woman has a very kind heart. Facing the war, she suffered a lot. At the same time, it is very contradictory. Because, if she wants to survive, she must maintain her due role in front of Manon.
Similarly, seeing the tragic war with my own eyes, how many people were displaced and homeless. Because of her prophecy, she was in pain, and she didn't want to. This can be seen from her conversation with Manon.
She opposed Manon's brutal rule, thinking that it would not bring long-term peace and stability!
...
Cassandra and Jiang Ning talked for a long time, until Manon ordered the guards to find them.
Jiang Ning and Cassandra looked at each other and knew clearly that Manon was going to attack other tribes again. Every time a wizard is summoned, it is necessary to use the witch's prophecy ability to make accurate predictions about every war.
This is also one of the reasons why Manon's army can win every battle.
...
"You guys are here, sit down! We are discussing the strategy for this war!" Manon said, pointing to the seat below him, which belonged to the two wizards under his command. Only those who are close to God can stand shoulder to shoulder with the king.
Jiang Ning and Cassandra looked at each other, then walked to their seats and sat down.
"You can start!" Manon told Cassandra.
Cassandra opened a set of scrolls, which were made of animal skin and dotted with a dozen gems. Cassandra's hands passed over these gems one by one, and then a scene of war suddenly appeared in her mind.
...
"How about it?"
Cassandra returned to that cold, unsmiling state again: "Your army, this time, will return with a big victory!"
Satisfied, Manon stood up and gave the order: "Have you heard? Pass on the order, and the army will start tomorrow!" The general under his command saluted and went down to prepare. Manon came to Cassandra's side, stroked her hair, and even sniffed lightly: "I really hope that I can achieve my goal sooner, so that I can marry you with the grandest ceremony."
"My lord, having sex with you will make me lose my ability to predict!"
Manon caressed Cassandra's face, and looking at the glamorous face in front of him, his eyes were full of possessiveness: "By then, I won't need witches anymore!" Tribes, whether witches were needed at that time, was no longer important to Manon.
Cassandra was helpless, she could only barely show a smile.
"Ning!" Manon turned to look at Jiang Ning.
Jiang Ning slightly lowered his head and questioned: "Please tell me, Your Majesty!"
"How about you going with me this time?"
"Happy to serve you, Your Majesty!"
Hearing what Jiang Ning said, Manon was very satisfied, and then ordered his servants to hold a banquet, and called over a dozen beauties with enchanting figures to accompany him. Of course, Jiang Ning would not be polite to him. Properly revealing some 'weaknesses' can reduce the monarch's vigilance.
Too perfect, wanting nothing, but not good! And once the weakness is properly revealed, whether it is greed for money or sex, it will make the monarch feel at ease. For this set of gameplay, Jiang Ning obviously plays it very well!
