This Lich Needs More Money

Chapter 143 Exploring the Underground City

Ambethio is preparing to move, but not just because the dwarf king wants to rule this land.

For a purely academic scholar like Ambrose, no matter who is the ruler, his life will be similar.

 But he really needs to change his life.

Digging graves to make money is just one of the reasons. After Amber Heard heard that Huggie Stone dug an underground city, he became a little curious and a little excited about this underground civilization.

Curiosity is Amber Xiu’s remaining desire. He is really interested in studying this mysterious underground civilization.

 Now that there is no shortage of money, it is time to spend money.

Another point is that the experiment Amberxiu plans to do next is not very suitable for exposure to the surface.

 The Lion Empire is coming with great momentum. This country is extremely extreme, but it is also really powerful. The dwarf kingdom occupies a geographical advantage but was almost destroyed by Ryan. I am afraid that in a few decades, the current eight kingdoms will be reduced by half.

No matter how hard Apoptotic Rose tries, the chance of defeating Ryan is still too small.

This is the general trend. As a lich who can live for countless years, the future that others cannot see in their lifetime can be said to be right in front of him.

 This is a perfect new address, but it is not suitable for bringing mortals with you.

It should be no problem for the brother and sister to use his fame and connections to establish themselves as small lords.

The price of the continental teleportation array is very expensive, but Amberxiu has no shortage of money now, so he directly installed one in the castle. It cost tens of thousands of gold coins and saved more than half a month.

The vampire who was promoted to the Supreme King of the Dwarf Kingdom gave Amber a map of the underground civilization ruins.

As for the moving address, Amberxiu had already communicated with Huggie Stone.

Huggie Stone doesn’t mind someone digging a grave with him. This underground civilization is so huge that he can’t dig it all in ten thousand years. The members of the Mourning Poets Society have no conflicts of interest. Instead, they have many common interests, so cooperation is the best choice.

It's a pity that the dwarves have been busy migrating recently and have not bothered to explore this new city. Huggie Stone said that he sent people to search, but only found some strange buildings that were incomprehensible, and nothing valuable near the city gate. s things.

Only a huge city gate made of unknown material was excavated in this area.

This castle is the communication window and transfer station between Amberxiu and the surface world. News and information from the surface and some magic materials can be sent to the underground world through the castle.

These scattered underground cities are the best hiding places.

The dwarves failed to dig the gate open for many years, so it was abandoned. But recently, Huggie Stone dug up a new underground city, causing an earthquake in the underground world. It actually shook the strong door to its side, revealing an entrance for entry.

 Amber Xiu must think about his future and find a way to become an undead that will not be killed by Ryan.

Amberson discussed with Huggie Stone for a while and chose an undeveloped underground city not far from his home.

This mysterious coincidence made Amberxiu very happy, feeling that this undeveloped city was specially reserved for him.

The address of the new home has been chosen, and Amberxiu didn't miss it at all. He took Catherine as a dragster and set off for the desert underground world.

 Underground civilization is a very good choice. In the complex underground world, it is very simple to hide, and the underground space is more suitable for the survival of the undead.

Under the vast desert, there are ruins of ancient civilizations. The Dwarf Kingdom has been digging for so long, but only the tip of the iceberg has been dug out. What is marked on the map of Huggie Stone are the ruins of underground cities that have been discovered. The combined area It is almost as big as the Lion Empire, which has the largest territory.

 Isabel and Raul were left here by Amber Xiu, and the castle was rented to them for free. Amber Xiu also left some of his alchemy notes and a small number of skeleton troops here.

 The teleportation array flashed with light, and Amberxiu came to a huge room with dim lights.

Having a huge private space makes moving very simple. The skeletons stuff their belongings inside, then close the space door, and Amberxiu can leave easily.

 After the arrangements were made, Amberxiu started moving.

 The magic lamp continues to emit soft light, illuminating the surrounding environment.

Amber Xiu didn't feel anything yet, but Catherine frowned. The air in this place was a bit dirty, probably because of the difficulty in ventilation, and it had a bit of a rotten smell.

Amberxiu said to Catherine: "If you can't bear it, you can go back and help me look after the castle and you will be working for me."

 Catherine shook her head firmly.

She followed Amberxiu just to train herself, so this smell was nothing.

 As soon as a green light was drawn between Catherine's fingers, her body gained an invisible filtering mask, and the filth in the air was immediately purified.

 “What a luxury.” Amberxiu said with emotion.

The elves are indeed a delicate and sensitive species, and I don’t know how long this elf queen can last.

Stepping out of the teleportation array, Amberxiu quickly met a smiling Heggie Stone. This man must have been living a good life recently. The long cloak behind him has been replaced by a gold-rimmed one. It is probably that the Dwarf King is getting along well with him. Hodge Stone was flying in the air and was about to give Amber Xiu a warm hug when he suddenly saw Catherine standing next to Amber Xiu. It startled him hard.

 “Your Majesty Catherine?!”

How could the Elf Queen suddenly appear here? Heki Stone could only look at Amberxiu for help.

Amberxiu said casually: "Catherine has resigned from the position of Queen of the Elf, and she is now working for me."

Herkey Stone smiled awkwardly and said: "This joke is too fake, and the lively atmosphere does not need to be so outrageous. If Her Majesty Catherine is angry, it will be a diplomatic incident."

However, Catherine said: "He is right, I am visiting as Ultraman Master's assistant now."

Hodge Stone froze in mid-air, completely losing the ability to control his expression.

After a while, he grabbed Amberxiu and pulled the lich aside.

"It's too much! Didn't I just bite the dwarf king and squeaked a bit? Are you so competitive that you kidnapped the elf queen as an assistant and wanted to force the elves to smash your life box?! "

Hodge Stone tried his best to lower his voice, but he still couldn't hide his inner excitement.

 The Elf Queen worked as an assistant to a lich and gave up her throne? This is a plot made up by some foolish novelist. Just listening to it is already very outrageous.

Amberxiu said helplessly: "I can't tell you the specific details. This is the confidentiality clause of the transaction. Anyway, that's the fact. It has nothing to do with you biting the Dwarf King. And, to be honest, this baggage I wanted to get rid of her, but she gave me too much.”

Not to mention the golden mountain, Amberxiu couldn't refuse it just as a free legendary favor.

What does it mean that she gave too much? The Elf Queen sold herself to work for you, and she didn’t take any wages but paid you back, right? Huggie Stone only felt that the lich in front of him was so arrogant that the gods were about to punish him. He had to stay away, otherwise he would be hurt when he was struck by lightning.

No matter how shocked Huggie Stone was, the fact was that Catherine stood quietly aside and did not refute anything Ambrose said.

The Supreme King Vampire could only grit his teeth and endure the humiliation, and secretly swore that he would show off his face badly today and he would show off again next time.

Because he was stimulated, Huggie Stone originally wanted to give Amber Xiu a clean break and entertain him well, but now he sent him directly to the gate of the new city and then found an excuse to leave.

He didn't want to see Amber Xiu again for a second. Watching him show off was more uncomfortable than having a stake driven through his heart.

Amberxiu stood in front of the tall city gate. The exposed part alone was more than thirty meters high, and he didn't know how much was buried by the rock formations.

Just from this city gate, you can tell that this is a splendid civilization, and its construction capabilities are definitely no worse than any other kingdom today.

Amberxiu carefully touched the pitted city gate, trying to confirm its material.

Catherine couldn't help but said: "This is my first time entering the underground. I didn't expect the ancient civilization to be so great. It's really shocking. How did they destroy it? The history of this city gate should be older than the period when the dragon tyrant ruled. Even more ancient."

“I don’t know the specific year, but the casting method of this city gate is very special. The material is not just metal or magic-reinforced rock... I estimate that this may be the body of some special monster.”

Catherine said in surprise: "What did you say? This city gate is made of the corpse of a monster? The dragon is not that big, right?"

"It's just a guess. I am a lich and I am sensitive to corpses. This city gate feels very similar to a corpse. Even if it is not made entirely of corpses, it should be mixed with the corpses of certain creatures. But what species it is, I can't see it."

 Ambrose is an expert in this field, and this basic judgment cannot be wrong.

 After confirming this, Amberxiu couldn't help but be more curious about what kind of civilization would use the corpses of living creatures to build city gates.

It’s not like it’s just for strength, I’m afraid it has something to do with religious culture.

 It’s just that the patterns on the city gate are blurred, and it’s impossible to infer the characteristics of this civilization from the carvings on it.

Looking at the gap in the middle of the city gate, Amberxiu said to Catherine: "Let's go in and have a look. If nothing happens, we will live in this city for many years."

 Amber Xiu blessed himself with a few defensive magics, and then floated into the crack of the door without touching his feet.

Going through the several-meter-thick city gate, and then through an excavated passage, it finally became clear after walking a few hundred meters.

 Catherine lit up a few starlights, illuminating the surroundings.

In front of you is a wide street with various strange-shaped buildings on both sides.

This should be the inside of the city, and when he saw the city for the first time, Amber Xiu had only one feeling - it was big.

 Everything in this place is huge, like a city where giants live.
