Chapter 388: The plan to dig into the [Dragon Worship Church] was made
The morning sea breeze felt comfortable on his face. Mo Cheng looked at the brightly lit hall and couldn't help but curl his lips.
"The nobles really know how to have fun."
Ever since the Steel Cruise began its voyage, the lights in the hall have never been turned off, and every night there are people staying up all night to have fun.
After several nights of partying, these guys really aren't afraid of sudden death.
After thinking about it, Mo Cheng discovered that those who party all night long are really not afraid of sudden death. The big businessmen have enough rechargeable scrolls and potions, and the nobles have more or less the physique of an apprentice, not to mention that there are special doctors on the steel cruise ship to provide treatment.
Just partying all night is not enough to cause these guys to die suddenly.
The steel cruise ship has been sailing for some time. Mo Cheng estimates that it will be able to reach the territory of the Kingdom of Bezeko tomorrow or the day after tomorrow. This powerful steel monster has shortened his sailing time by more than half.
The much earlier arrival time gave Mo Cheng plenty of time to think about some things.
For example, there was the traitor in the delegation of Winterhold Magic Academy, the Dragon Tomb located in the Kingdom of Bezeko, and the existence of the Dragon Worship Church.
Although he didn't want to admit it, Mo Cheng also felt that he was a troublemaker. It might be an inappropriate description that trouble happened wherever he went, but it was undoubtedly the most appropriate description.
There were many doubts about the matter between Dorothy and the delegation, and Mo Cheng had no reasonable speculation before he had actual contact with them.
What is certain is that Dorothy is most likely not a traitor, if when they meet up, Dorothy is still the Dorothy that Mo Cheng knows.
Another problem is that Andel attaches great importance to that batch of instruments, so the level of confidentiality should be very high.
Since it is taken so seriously and the level of confidentiality is quite high, how did the news leak out?
Principal Muzel only gave an explanation at the time: "There is a traitor." However, Mo Cheng was worried that Andel only knew that there was a traitor, but had no way of confirming who the traitor was.
"Is it inside Winterhold? Or is it the nobles who are against the queen? Or maybe..."
A thousand thoughts came to his mind in an instant, but he didn't catch any substantial clues, so Mo Cheng had to put the matter aside for the time being.
Now he is the hereditary , so he may not care much about other things, but before he obtains the [Territory Seal] and acquires a territory, he really doesn't want anything to happen to Aundair.
Putting Aundair's matter aside for the moment, Mo Cheng searched through his memory for information about the [Dragon Worship Church].
"The Dragon Worship Church is a group formed by the leader under the pretext that the Dragonborn should stick together. But secretly, what the top leaders of the Dragon Worship Church really want to do is to gather and create artificial dragon blood, so that the giant dragons can reappear on the continent of Khorvaire."
"Cruel, vicious, and cunning. In order to expand their power, the ruler of the Dragon Worship Church tried to put semi-finished artificial dragon blood into the city's daily water supply to artificially produce a large number of dragons."
Mo Cheng had no idea how the Dragon Worship Church mass-produced dragonborn.
When this plot happened in [Foreign Land], he was still busy leveling up in other areas. There are many countries in the continent of Khorvaire. Andel and the country where he first landed in [Foreign Land] are, if not tens of thousands of miles apart, at least half as far apart.
Mo Cheng knew that there was a high probability that he would not get along with the Dragon Worship Church.
To be corrected, they just don't get along with the top leaders of the Dragon Worship Church who have formulated the plan to create artificial dragon bloodline . Even if those guys see Mo Cheng, they are most likely thinking about how to suck his marrow out of his bones and turn him into the raw material for artificial dragon bloodline.
This time he went to the Kingdom of Bezeko, in addition to looking for the dragon tomb, he also planned to see if there was anyone in the Church of the Dragon who was kept in the dark. He planned to dig into the Church of the Dragon.
As for destroying the Dragon Worshiping Church, Mo Cheng has no such idea in the short term.
The actions of the Dragon Worship Church were instructed by the high-level officials of the Kingdom of Bezeko in order to form a powerful army.
For this reason, there seems to be an ability within the Dragon Worship Church to control weak dragonborn.
And is there any army with higher individual quality than the Dragonborn, and is it more cost-effective to have slave soldiers who do not need to be rewarded?
It is completely unrealistic to want to destroy the Church of the Dragon in the Kingdom of Bezeko.
“The sea breeze is comfortable, but it’s not suitable to blow too much.”
The voice from behind interrupted Mo Cheng's thoughts. Looking back, he saw Helena walking towards him with two glasses of wine and handed one of them to Mo Cheng.
"You got up so early, why don't you sleep a little longer?"
Mo Cheng looked at the weather. It was not sunrise yet. Except for the guy who was partying all night in the hall, everyone else should still be sleeping.
"Did I wake you up when I went out?"
"No, I just woke up and went out for a walk."
Wake up? I guess I just suffer from insomnia.
Mo Cheng secretly looked at the dark circles under Helena's eyes. Although Helena consciously concealed them with makeup, he could still see the difference with his keen eyesight.
However, Mo Cheng could understand Helena. First, two-thirds of his entire fleet sank for unknown reasons, and then he had to bear overwhelming compensation bills, declining reputation, and the ridicule of the old nobles. At the same time, he had a precarious .
The Seranis family is definitely not the only big businessmen promoted by Queen Caroline. After the shipwreck, many of the emerging nobles who are also big businessmen have tried to take the leadership position.
That was fine, but what happened next not only told her that the sinking of the fleet was not an accident but was premeditated. After that, she was assassinated and almost had her life blown to pieces along with the garden of Viscount Nidas's house.
So many things happened in a short period of time. Not to mention insomnia and dark circles under the eyes, I might even become mentally ill.
"Do you need any help with the Seranis family's affairs?"
For the sake of the mission, Mo Cheng didn't want Helena to rush back because of some news, which would conflict with his mission.
Although he did not attach much importance to the title of hereditary earl, after these days' experience, Mo Cheng realized that the title of hereditary earl was really useful among the nobles.
"No need. I have already arranged all family and business affairs before leaving. And this time when I go to Napa Port, I also plan to open up a new trade route."
Then Helena added, "Of course, your business takes priority, Count."
"If everything goes well on my end, the matter can be resolved quickly."
Mo Cheng didn't say what would happen if things didn't go well, although he knew that if things didn't go well, there would be a high probability that half of Napa Harbor would be blown up.
After thinking for a while, Mo Cheng spoke again: "If things go well and you come back quickly enough, I have a business that could be very profitable to share with you."
