Chapter 209

There is no doubt that Zhang Cheng has never been a man who likes to wait to die. Especially after learning that the enemy is ready to start a war, he quickly took out all his family assets and ordered Blanco to start recruiting and training soldiers, purchase armor and weapons to the greatest extent, and hire those mercenaries with good reputation to ensure that there is enough cannon fodder for consumption.

In addition, he put aside unimportant trifles and focused all his energy on the study of all the functions of the towering tower.

This mysterious building, which does not know when to complete, is far more mysterious and complex than many people think, especially the huge crystal at the top of the tower, which was originally covered by the fire, is not only an energy collection and control device, but also a powerful weapon.

With the huge energy stored at the bottom of the tower for thousands of years, it can create a terrible death storm, or set off hundreds of meters of waves.

Of course, storms and waves are obviously not enough to deal with dragons that can soar in the sky.

Therefore, Zhang Cheng plans to use his limited time to make some small modifications, such as further increasing the destructive power, turning huge waves into solid ice and storms into snowstorms

As he hid in the tower to prepare for the coming war, the nobles in the seven countries were worried about the growing army gathered near the old town.

Some of them speculate that this is to invade the iron islands, but more people think it is a sign of longing to seize the Iron Throne.

Anyway, as the actual controller of Junlin City, tywin Lannister had to prepare for the worst.

Although today is the wedding of King Geoffrey and Queen Margaret, he still left countless guests and quietly came to the tent less than 50 meters away from the banquet.

The man in black, who had been waiting for a long time, did not speak, but handed over a curly note.

Old tywin then opened it and glanced at it. His face quickly became dignified. He lowered his voice and asked, "are you sure there's nothing wrong with the news above?"

"Yes, your excellency, I have repeatedly confirmed that there will be no mistakes. You'd better be prepared. The terrible enemy will come soon." the man in black nodded without thinking.

Because he wore a hood and a gray cloak, he couldn't see his appearance and body clearly.

"So Mason's crazy expansion of the army is not aimed at the iron throne?" tywin clutched the note with a trace of uncertainty.

"Sorry, sir, I don't know what his purpose is and what he wants. Oh, by the way, I just found out that his name is not Mason at all. The real Mason Aspen has been dead for a long time. He got his name and identity from Lord bellich." the man in black quickly added.

"False identity? Have you figured out who he is?" tywin frowned subconsciously.

"It's a pity that I only found out that he first appeared near King's Avenue and was rescued by an agricultural merchant who called himself Billy. Before that, everything was a mystery. Maybe you should ask Lord bellich, and he might give you a satisfactory answer." after that, the man in black raised his head slightly and showed his upturned mouth.

Tywin didn't notice the playfulness revealed in the other party's tone. He felt his beard on his chin and asked in a deep voice, "where's the businessman? Where is he? I need to see him right away!"

"As far as I know, poor Billy has been missing for a long time. If nothing happens, he will probably be killed. After all, if it were me, I would eliminate this potential threat instead of leaving it to the enemy..." the man in black replied meaningfully.

"Good! Keep a close eye on the old town! No matter what Mason does, I'll get the news at the first time."

Tywin took a deep breath and returned to his usual unsmiling face. Just as he wanted to turn around and leave the tent, there was a sharp scream outside.

"Ah ah!!!"

"No! Your majesty... Your majesty is poisoned!"

"Bachelor! Bachelor!"

……

For a moment, the wedding banquet, which was originally full of laughter, suddenly turned into a pot of porridge.

"Damn it!" seeing that the situation was a little out of his control, tywin couldn't help cursing in a low voice and walked quickly to the place where the crowd was most concentrated.

He didn't notice at all. As soon as he walked out, the man in black took off his hood and showed a round bald head.

Obviously, he was no one else, but Wallis, the "eight clawed spider" who had disappeared from the public's sight for a long time.

I'm afraid no one would have thought that he would sneak back to King's landing when he should have gone to sea to ESSOS. He also reached a cooperative relationship with tywin Lannister to secretly collect all information about Zhang Cheng.

What "little finger" bellich got was only outdated news that he deliberately left to divert his attention.

Staring at the noisy and confused crowd not far away, Wallis narrowed his eyes and said to himself: "Sure enough, you can't help it, dear old friend. Next, I should send Prince tywin away from the game of power, so as to make the situation more complicated. As you once said, chaos is a ladder, only the ladder is true, and climbing is all of it. But don't forget, there is another saying that the higher you climb, the harder you fall, and sometimes it becomes People who hold the ladder will be safer. "

At the same time, Sansha stark, hiding in the crowd, was enjoying the enemy's last breath with pain.

Although she did not know who had poisoned her, nor did she know that she had been unknowingly used, it did not prevent her from producing a sense of revenge that could not be expressed in words.

Fortunately, Sansa didn't forget her escape plan. She stopped for a little while. While everyone's eyes were firmly attracted by Geoffrey's body, she quickly took the cloak from a pre arranged insider to block the beautiful dress, then followed the narrow path to the port, about 40 minutes or so, and finally boarded an insignificant boat.

Before she could sit down and catch her breath, petit berisch rushed into the cabin and hugged it.

Feeling each other's beating heart and heavy breathing, the girl immediately realized that the rumor was likely to be true. The old man of the same age as his father transferred his crazy infatuation with his mother to himself.

Although she hated this morbid and abnormal emotion in her heart, she forced herself to endure it, pretended to be weak and helpless, and asked, "Lord bellich, you will take me home, won't you?"

"Of course, Sansa, I swear you won't be wronged or insulted at all from now on." the little finger sniffed the girl's hair and gave a firm guarantee.
