This Lich Needs More Money

Chapter 110: Release the captive children first

 Fate is always so playful.

Not long ago, Amberxiu was thinking about how many elves he wanted to die on the battlefield so that they would know what the wrath of the lich was. Now we have to consider how to quell this war. Others may find this situation very strange, but Amberxiu's soul is in stress.

 O fate, you have always been like this.

When you have made all the plans for your life, the unknown wind and waves will hit you, making you dizzy. You finally grasp the life-saving straw, only to find that there is a fishhook hidden in it... Thinking of the previous memories, An Bai Xiu felt like his bones were drenched and even his marrow was chilled.

However, Amberxiu also knew very well that his decision was not wrong.

After mastering the power of prophecy, his premonitions have always been accurate. Even if he actively sealed this ability, he can already make vague judgments about the future. This is a passive effect and it is impossible to completely remove it.

Now the prophecy ability has fully counterattacked and has become Amberxiu's legendary favor. As long as you concentrate on thinking for a moment, those premonitions will become so strong that you can't even think about it.

 Therefore, Amberxiu's desire to negotiate with the elves was not reckless, but he already had a premonition that his choice would be able to achieve his goal.

“I have to find a **** to worship later and ask him to help me seal this prophetic ability again.”

Amberxiu muttered about the unlikely possibility, and then entered his private space.

The elves trapped in the cell are still in a state where time has stopped, and the girl named Naya and Cicero still look like they did when they were quarreling.

When Amberxiu lifted the stasis of time, none of them could immediately discover Amberxiu's existence.

"I really shouldn't have agreed to allow underage elves to join the Dusk Guard, even the so-called geniuses!" Cicero said angrily.

Although Naya knew that she had messed up, she also said aggrievedly: "I can swear to the gods, I really didn't say anything. It was the lich who used some magic to read my memory! That must be the case. !”

Amber Xiu stood outside the cell and said happily: "I haven't the ability to remove the blessing from the Elf God. However, exaggerating the enemy can indeed reduce one's guilt. I understand you very much. However, you are like this Wouldn’t it be a bit blasphemous to say?”

Hearing Amber Xiu's words, all the elves were startled.

There was no one at this location just now. What kind of magic did this lich use to appear? There was no sign at all.

Amberxiu’s words also made the elf girl turn pale. Was she really blaspheming?

When Cicero saw Naya's expression, he immediately put away his anger and comforted him: "Don't listen to this lich's nonsense. He is messing with your spirit. The gods will not be disturbed by this unintentional mistake." Blame us."

 But after the consolation was over, Cicero himself felt very nervous.

The lich in front of him is the most troublesome enemy he has ever seen, not only because of his power, but also because of his mouth that can talk the dead into living things and the living into suicide.

He can break through people's inner defenses with a casual sentence, and can judge a person's inner thoughts from the smallest expression. The blessing of the elves not to be controlled by the mind is useless to him.

Ambrose just stood there, saying nothing, just staring at Cicero with a human face in amusement.

A few seconds later, Cicero felt a little unable to hold on and said loudly: "Lich, what do you want?! Kill us if you dare!"

 “Haha, it’s the same old thing again, what good will it do me to kill you and send you to the kingdom of elves.”

Amberxiu walked into the cell, slowly passed through the elves, and came to Cicero. He smiled and said: "Don't worry, I'm not here to torture you today, nor to get any information. I want to I already know everything I know. I am just here to inform you that you will be sent to the desert in a few days. Please be prepared and at least wait until the transaction is completed before you consider suicide. I promise that you will not die because of me. Here, I won’t desecrate your corpses, okay?”

Before Cicero could speak, Naya exclaimed: "What do you mean? What kind of deal are you talking about?!"

Cicero shouted: "Naya, shut up!"

"But..." The elf girl flushed with anxiety, but she still chose to keep her mouth shut under Cicero's angry gaze, and could only stare at Amberxiu with resentful eyes.

Amberxiu continued to smile and said: "Calm down, I said I am not here to torture you, why are you so nervous. You should also know that it is not just the elves who are eyeing this land, the desert dwarves were beaten to pieces by the Lion Empire. They were retreating and could no longer hold on any longer. This land was their strategic space for retreat.

"As for the rights of aboriginal people like me, neither elves nor dwarves will take it seriously. I am not going to complain about the weak and the strong, but I am just telling you that the desert dwarves spent money to buy you for torture. Information. And I have already agreed. Now I am just here to inform you so as not to get too excited during the transaction.

"I heard that the elves will die of heartbreak? You elves are also troublesome. Other captives can just drink some sleeping potions. You are troublesome and I have to remind you. So, please maintain a good attitude."

Ambersio’s words made Cicero unable to bear it anymore, and he said excitedly: “You sold us to those wind-eroded rocks?!”

Amberxiu quickly reminded: "Wow, don't use such a racist term at that time, otherwise the dwarves will definitely not mind teaching you a lesson."

Perhaps due to the living environment, desert dwarves are shorter than dwarves in other places. After all, the shorter they are, the easier it is to stabilize themselves in a storm and not be blown away. The skin of desert dwarves is also rougher than that of other dwarves, and the marks carved by the wind and sand are indeed somewhat like wind-eroded rocks.

However, the desert dwarves don't like this title. They almost point at their faces and call them ugly. But Cicero said disdainfully: "If they don't like such an artistic title, I can just call them ugly dwarfs."

Ambethio had no intention of helping the dwarves fight for their nicknames. He just stared at Cicero, making him feel uncomfortable.

"Okay, changing the topic, verbal insults, and extreme emotional venting are all meaningless to me. You don't have to hide your inner uneasiness. You are afraid that after being sent to the desert, the dwarves will use you to gain an advantage in the war. Feeling guilty And incompetence and rage need to be vented, so people often behave stupidly when they are desperate..."

Amberxiu commented unhurriedly on Cicero's behavior. The feeling of the scar being untied made him unable to bear it any longer: "What exactly do you want to do? Lich, don't waste everyone's time. You definitely didn’t come to inform us about being sold!”

"Haha, I finally kept some sense. That's enough. Only those who can still think at this time are qualified to negotiate." Amberxiu put away his joking expression and said to Cicero very seriously: " What I want to do is very simple. Let the elves pay to buy you back. What do you think? In this way, the information about the elves will not be leaked. "

Cicero said excitedly: "The elves will not be threatened by others!" But for some reason, when he heard Amber's suggestion, his heart moved violently.

 Not just him, but also other elves.

 Yes, if they can be redeemed, the information about the elves will not be leaked, and they can go home alive.

 As for the information that Amber Xiu had guessed before...I'm sorry, they don't want to think about this detail for the time being.

Although the elves are naturally elegant and full of wisdom, in terms of willpower, they are far behind the fanatics of the Lion Empire. At least they are afraid of death.

When Amberxiu heard what Cicero said, he didn't refute him. He bypassed him and said to the other elves: "No matter whether this deal can succeed or not, it is always an opportunity for negotiation. In fact, I don't have any grudge against you elves. Think about it, I am the native here, and I am the victim of the invasion. The invasion of the desert dwarves and the invasion of the elves are the same to me, but the dwarves are not as arrogant as you elves.

"Now, if you are willing to put aside your arrogance and talk to me, I can put you on the same level as the dwarves again. This will also be beneficial to the strategic goals of your elves. This is not only for Yourselves, and the other Twilight Guards.

“You don’t think that the outcome will be different when other Twilight Guards encounter me, do you?”

Amberxiu claimed to be the victim, but also thought about the problem from the perspective of the elves, and also used other elves as reasons. This set of rhetoric was thrown out, and the elves were silenced. Cicero did not continue to refute.

These words make sense, but they don’t make much sense.

 It’s just that sometimes there is no need for right or wrong, just a step.

　　Bring out the overall interests of the elves and give this group of elves a stepping stone. Then they will put down their arrogance and walk down the stairs.

 Naya is the youngest and the one who is the fastest to be convinced by Amber Xiu's words.

Naya whispered to Cicero: "Cicero, maybe he is right. We have to consider the overall strategy of the elves. Once we are sent to the desert, it will probably be bad."

Other silent elves also spoke one after another. If there was a choice, of course it would be better to redeem them. Maybe being captured was a shame, but as long as you lived, there was always a chance to wash away the shame.

Cicero looked at the tribesmen around him and understood that even if he refused, it would be meaningless. The lich in front of him knows how to manipulate people's hearts. The Twilight Guards are already dissatisfied. If he doesn't want to, someone else will be willing to be the messenger. The elves will definitely consider Amber Xiu's proposal.

 The final result is very likely that the dwarves and the elves will sit at the negotiation table together, and then bid against each other, allowing the lich to make a lot of money.

From the moment they were captured by mistake, everything was in this lich's calculations.

Cicero said helplessly: "Okay, if you release me, I will take your words back."

He promised, but Cicero decided that after returning, he must report the terrible details of this lich so that the elves can be wary of this lich and avoid being completely led by this lich in the subsequent negotiations. Walk. Carefully recalling the previous battle with Amber Xiu, Cicero felt that many details could be dug into. If all were recorded and sent to the elves, they might be able to analyze a lot of things.

Amberxiu smiled and said, "What did you say? I didn't say let you go."

Amid the surprised expressions of the elves, Amberxiu said to Naya: "Little girl, you heard what I just said, just go back and repeat it to your tribe."

When Cicero heard this, he quickly wanted to refuse: "Wait! Naya...she..."

Amberxiu frowned and said mockingly: "Underage people are given priority, ladies are given priority. Is there anything wrong with this? No, no, the leader of the elves' Twilight Guards is planning to run away and let the children continue to be prisoners. ah?"

As soon as these words came out, all the elves couldn't help but glance at Cicero.

Cicero gritted his teeth and clenched his fists. He began to regret that he had agreed.

This child Naya will be sold by this lich and help him count the money!
