"Well, what do you see from that old scroll?" Tyrion asked without looking up while drinking the hot soup just served.
As a well-read man, he is well aware of the long history of the king's landing alchemists guild. At the same time, he is also well aware that many people have spied on the production method of wildfire, but for some reason, no one has ever succeeded.
Even if many people read the contents recorded on the scroll, they can't understand how those mysterious spells work.
Zhang Cheng shrugged his shoulders and replied, "nothing. It's just some mysterious tricks. The real key to making wildfire is only the last sentence."
"The last sentence?" Tyrion quickly put down his spoon, spread out the scroll and read word by word.
The last line reads: the hottest flame needs to be watered with blood
He subconsciously frowned and whispered in an uncertain tone, "watering the flame with blood? Are you sure it won't extinguish the flame?"
"Hahaha! Think about it. When was the alchemist guild founded and when did they start making wildfire. In fact, the method of making wildfire came from the tangorian family, and the tangorian family came from the brilliant Valeria. That is to say, the method of making wildfire was actually invented by the Valerians. Haven't you heard of it, Wa Is the magic power that the relians possess blood and fire? "Zhang Cheng explained with a laugh.
Perhaps before he met the giant dragon sealed under the island, he thought wild fire was a very mysterious magical material, but now he has understood that the so-called wild fire is actually the same as his own method of making "dragon flame".
The only difference is that "dragon flame" is a pure elemental energy condensed with the help of mysterious substances in dragon blood, but wildfire uses the corpse of human beings who died miserably as raw material to obtain the power of terror through the most cruel sacrifice in blood magic.
Because the corpse has suffered countless abuse and torture before death, it contains a lot of negative emotions such as pain and resentment. It is very, very unstable. A little carelessness will lead to disastrous consequences.
This is also why, in the period when the tangaryan family owned dragons, wildfires rarely appeared in people's sight, but after the extinction of dragons, they quickly became the secret weapon of the tangaryan Dynasty and were frequently mentioned as a deterrent force.
"I see..." the little devil nodded thoughtfully, then pointed to the steaming soup bowl on the table and said, "try the skill of my newly hired chef. His seafood soup is one of the few things that can make me happy except wine."
Zhang Cheng glanced down at the bowl of dark food in front of him. He didn't know what was put in it. The corner of his mouth twitched slightly.
To tell the truth, he is a little afraid to compliment the so-called "delicious food" in Westeros. Not to mention the "pigeon pie", which makes people a little creepy. Even the most common broth and roast whole pig will be added with some strange ingredients, such as antler powder and honey, to ensure that he will never want to eat the second bite after the first bite.
Most of the time, when attending the banquet, he mainly eats fresh fruit, and cooked food will never be touched.
Tyrion obviously didn't know what Zhang Cheng was thinking at the moment. He hurried, "drink it while it's hot! I promise you'll love it."
"OK, I'll try." Zhang Cheng picked up the spoon and took a sip.
After much hesitation, he finally decided to take a drink first. Anyway, it won't kill anyone.
There is no strange taste, no messy condiments, some are just the freshness of unknown clam meat and shrimp, and the black part is soft seaweed.
After a while, Zhang Cheng drank the soup in the bowl, then stood up and said to the little devil, "it tastes good. If you don't have anything else, I'll leave first. I have to see joffrey while it's still early, but he keeps writing letters to me."
"Joffrey?" Tyrion was stunned at first, followed by a disgusting complaint on his face. "Damn it! You shouldn't teach him those dangerous powers! You know? Shortly after you left, he burned six poor servants alive with the magic ring you gave him. Now the whole Red Castle is in danger for fear of becoming the next victim."
"Oh? Has he been able to skillfully control the ring and release hot flames?" Zhang Cheng's eyes revealed a surprised light.
You should know that the ring he made for joffrey is actually an extremely unstable experimental product. If the user does not have enough talent and control, all kinds of accidents will occur soon, and may even lead to the user's tragic death.
But joffrey is good. He not only has no accidents, but also controls well, which shows that he has a very good talent and physique.
Among all the people he has met so far, Zhang Cheng has only seen this talent in danilis, the last direct member of the tangaryan family.
"Don't mention it! At first, he could only release a nail sized flame through the ring, but later, for some reason, the flame he released became bigger and bigger and the temperature became higher and higher. At present, he was able to roast a horse into a charred body in half a minute. Even my father felt a headache about it and was going to discuss it with you. In addition, you had the news of a dragon two days ago It's back to King's landing. You'd better be prepared. "
Tyrion didn't intend to hide anything, so he told everything he knew.
Maybe he resented tywin's extremely unfair attitude, or he planned to regain his rights with the help of honesty. In short, he didn't choose to stand on the side of the Lannister family this time.
"I see. Thank you, dear friend. I owe you once. If you encounter any trouble in the future, you can come to me at any time, and I will help you." after saying this, Zhang Cheng leaned slightly and left the little devil's residence quickly.
He didn't notice that as soon as her front feet left, Sansa tied a bright red cloth strip to the column of the balcony on the second floor.
Hiding in the dark, two figures in cloaks immediately followed behind, neither too close nor too far away.
After about ten minutes, when Zhang Cheng got into a sparsely populated alley, they immediately separated and blocked the narrow alley one after another.
Zhang Cheng stopped alertly, turned around and asked expressionless, "who ordered you to come? If you say who was behind the scenes, I can consider making your death pain faster..."
