This Lich Needs More Money

 Chapter 165 Crazy Ryan

　　【Ultraman Tiga: I am in the Lion Empire, and I just left the teleportation array...】

Amberxiu’s words caused a storm in the chat group.

 The first person to arrive on the scene was Huggie Stone.

If there was anyone in the Dead Poets Society who was most displeased with Umbersheu, it would definitely be the dwarf vampire Huggie Stone.

A few days after he recovered from the fact that the Elf Queen was leaning against Amber Xiu, he suddenly saw Amber Xiu sending a message again, and suddenly he felt bad all over.

　　【Don't like humans: I am XXXXX, what are you bragging about? Lion Imperial Capital? The undead were blown into ashes before they even got close. 】

The second person to arrive at the scene was Gareth, the dragon clan’s son-in-law. This son-in-law probably didn’t have to do anything at all, so he was never absent from every chat.

　　【The Headless Horseman's Crown: Brother, I'm on his side this time, and I have to use some basic logic when bragging. I don’t even dare to get close to the Lion Imperial Capital. Your small body will be blasted by the Holy Light to the point where you won’t even be able to leave ashes. 】

Amberxiu looked at the replies from the two people, and after thinking for a moment, he wrote: [You two, do you want to take a gamble? 】

Hodge Stone seems to be too excited and is frantically using "XXXX" to refresh the screen, forgetting about the bet.

 After a while, the group members began to feel like they were going crazy.

In addition to the environment, Amberxiu walked up to the unsmiling paladin again, leaned close to him and said, "Come on, please cooperate, take off your helmet and smile."

　　【Pale Little Skeleton: Impossible, how can the undead enter the City of Dawn? Even if he is the illegitimate son of the Lord of the Dawn, he will still be burned to ashes by the Holy Light if he becomes undead. 】

Amberxiu took out a memory crystal from his private space and pointed it at the tall white stone pillars around the teleportation array. They were all sculptures of the Lord of the Morning. On this continent, only the City of Dawn, the capital of the Lion Empire, could be forty or fifty meters high. The statue of Lord of the Dawn.

 “Okay, forget it if you don’t cooperate.”

　　【Don’t like humans: How is that possible! Is it really Auroville? This is not something you faked in advance, right? 】

　　【Ultraman Tiga: Just now, a group of holy warriors knelt down in front of me, crying and begging me to accept the money. Since it was free money, take it out for a small gamble. 】

　　【Ultraman Tiga: If you don't believe it, I'll write your name on a piece of paper and give you another shot. 】

　　【Ultraman Tiga: Don't worry about whether I can prove it or not, just say whether you want to bet or not. My bet is 53 million gold coins. 】

　　【I don’t like humans: I bet you are in Auroville? How do you prove it? ! 】

　　【Ultraman Tiga: What are you kidding me about? I'll record it for you now using a memory crystal. 】

 After Heggie Stone calmed down, Brother Headless continued to ask: [Brother, are you serious? Are you really in Auroville? 】

Amberxiu was very helpless. Why was it that no one believed him when he told the truth? He was a lich who did business with integrity and always told the truth.

Amber Xiu secretly warned himself to tell a white lie next time, so as not to let the injustice get bigger... Oh, no, it should not let the group of friends break their defense.

　　【Pale Little Skeleton: No way, are you really the illegitimate son of the Lord of the Dawn? ! 】

　　【Don’t like humans: XXXXXXX! 】

The paladin turned his head, glanced at Amberxiu, then stood up straight again, as if he heard nothing.

　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　Your number is quite interesting. What’s with the extra three million? 】

 Amber Xiu took pictures of all the paladins guarding them, and then uploaded the images inside to the Code of the Undead.

　　【The Headless Horseman's Crown: Brother, how come you are okay? As for the Holy Light, why doesn't it work for you? ! 】

 …

It is already outrageous for the undead to enter the territory of Ryan. The City of Auroville is the above-ground palace of the Lord of the Dawn, and it is the place where miracles most often occur.

The concentration of the holy light was so intense that even the bone dragon couldn't last more than a few seconds.

How could Amberxiu, a lich, appear in the City of Auroville? Did he have any means of resisting the power of the Holy Light?

If this is true, it would be the most shocking discovery in the world of the undead.

Apoptotic Rose, who really cared about Ryan the most, arrived belatedly. After seeing the chat history, she couldn't wait to send a private message to Amber Xiu: [How did you enter the City of Auroville! What happened? 】

Amberxiu knew that Ryan was the inner demon for Apoptotic Rose, so he didn't give in. He told about his encounter with the Silver Moon Knight in Sand Shadow City, and said that he wanted to take a way to Emerald Dream Forest. But there was no mention of saving Harvey.

  【Apoptotic Rose: Have you met Winston Wright? 】

I don’t know if it was an illusion, but Amberxiu seemed to be able to feel the suppressed anger of the Apoptotic Rose even through the Code of the Dead.

　　【Ultraman Tiga: I did see him, and I helped you cheat him out of more than 50 million gold coins. 】

Apoptotic Rose was silent for a long time, and then replied: [Thank you, this is the best news I have heard in recent decades. 】

Amberxiu asked curiously: "Do you have a grudge against this Silver Moon Knight?" ]    [Apoptotic Rose: My teacher, Master Morgan, died under his sword. But he wasn't having it easy either, as his last disciple also died in the Underdark. 】

Amberxiu didn't expect that there was still this past between the two. If he had known that this was the case, he should have given him tens of millions more.

　　【Apoptotic Rose: This old man is probably going to die soon. 】

　　【Ultraman Tiga: It looks like he is about to die at any moment, but the power of the Holy Light in his body is not bad at all. If he really takes action, I may not be his opponent. 】

　　【Apoptotic Rose: Don't do anything with him. This old man's Holy Slash can hurt the soul of the lich. Even if it can return to the phylactery, it will bring back the remaining power of the Holy Light. My teacher died under his holy sword. Even though he returned to the phylactery, he was eventually burned to ashes by the holy light. 】

Amberxiu was startled by Apoptotic Rose's words.

Is this old man too outrageous?

  The return of the Lich's soul to the phylactery is a special rule, not something like a space spell.

 Theoretically, except for the lich's soul, nothing else will be affected by this law. Even if you are cursed or something, returning to the phylactery can remove the cursed energy.

How special must the Holy Slash of the Silver Moon Knight be to attach the power of the Holy Light to the Lich's soul, and also be able to send it back to the phylactery along with it?

Amberxiu couldn't even figure out the principle of this.

After calming down for several seconds, Amberxiu said with emotion: "Fortunately, this old man is about to die." 】

　　【Apoptotic Rose: Yes, fortunately he is about to die, and fortunately he is not a member of the Lion Royal family, otherwise I would have died long ago. It's a pity that you are trapped in the teleportation array. If you have a way to enter the City of Dawn, there are several secret passages that can lead directly to the palace. Maybe you can assassinate the emperor. 】

Amberxiu asked strangely: [Do you know all about the secret passages? You know Ryan too well. 】

　　【Apoptotic Rose: You already know so much, so I won't hide it from you. I am actually a person from Lane and have lived in the City of Auroville since I was a child. 】

　　【Ultraman Tiga: I had somewhat guessed before that you know Lane too well, so you are probably a local. 】

 Amber Xiu was not too surprised to see Apoptotic Rose's confession. He had already guessed before that the reason why Apoptotic Rose knew Ryan so well and could even obtain information about city defense must have a close relationship with Ryan.

 As for why he escaped from Ryan and became a lich, this is not surprising.

Many humans flee from Lion every year, perhaps because they have committed a crime, perhaps because the teachings of the Lord of the Dawn do not conform to his ideals, or more directly, they hope to gain immortality.

Lane is prohibited from using magical means to extend his life. The Silver Moon Knight, the strongest paladin, will grow old, which shows how strict this prohibition is.

 Living is the instinct of life, and undead creatures are also living creatures. If given a choice, how many of them can accept death calmly?

But what made Amber Xiu unexpected was that Apoptotic Rose was not an ordinary person from the Lion Capital.

Apoptotic Rose: Actually, I am the Lion Royal Family...The current Emperor Ryan should be considered my cousin. It has been so long ago that I can’t remember clearly. 】

"What?!"

Amberxiu blurted out, forgetting to write.

Hurrying to express his shock and doubts in words, Apoptotic Rose explained: [Is it strange? So what about the royal family? In the end, they are not slaves of faith. Lane is a country where everything is sacrificed for belief from top to bottom. Once you are not fanatical enough, you are a sinner. Back then, I was such a sinner who was not fanatical enough. 】

Amberxiu quickly asked: [Do you want to live forever and break Ryan's rules? 】

　　【Apoptotic Rose: That's not true. I was brainwashed and educated since I was a child, and I was originally willing to dedicate everything to Ryan. But as I grew up, I realized that even if I was willing to accept death calmly, there were some things I still couldn't accept. Did you know that the real blood of the Ryan royal family is actually very rare. My father gave birth to more than forty children, and I am the only one who can resonate with the magic dragon's weapons. 】

Amberxiu thought to himself, is the cheating rate of the Ryan royal family so high? Could it be that The Wild History of Queen Llane and the Goblin is actually documentary literature?

Apoptotic Rose: The bloodline of the Ryan royal family is constantly weakening, because the royal family did not choose **** marriage from the beginning. After more than ten generations of dilution, it is already very different from the bloodline of His Majesty the Emperor when the country was founded. Therefore, fewer and fewer people can resonate with the Dragon Arms. The main task of each emperor is to have children, and to have many children until he finds the one who can resonate with the dragon's weapons. I thought that after I succeeded to the throne, I would become such a fertility machine. Originally, I thought about accepting it. After all, this is my family responsibility. But later I discovered that I still underestimated their madness. 】

　　【Ultraman Tiga: Them? Do you mean your relatives? 】

Apoptotic Rose: Yes, my father, my mother, and all the other royal families, they came up with a plan. If after I give birth to my first child, this child does not inherit Ryan's blood, they will help me find a husband. The royal family has been giving birth to children like crazy for so many years, so there are a lot of side bloodlines. Those men like cousins, cousins, or even cousins ​​will become my husband, and they must give birth to children who can inherit the bloodline. 】

Amberxiu paused with his fingertips and wrote this sentence: [They are really crazy. 】

　　【Apoptotic Rose: Yes, they are crazy. Before I took the throne, I overheard their plans. In this world, it turns out that there is something more difficult to accept than death. So, I ran away and got away from Lane before these lunatics could carry out their plan. They started to chase me crazily, and I could only run away all the way to the Underdark. Then, I met my teacher, and with his help, I transformed into a lich... You almost know what happened next. 】

Amberxiu didn't know how to comfort her. No wonder Rose of Death had such an unforgettable hatred for the Lion Empire.

Apoptotic Rose is not the kind of fragile woman who needs comfort from others. She quickly recovered and asked Amber Xiu: "By the way, what are you doing in Emerald Dream Forest this time?" 】

Amberxiu replied: [The elves gave me a burial location for the artifact, which can only be reached by going to the sea from Emerald Dream Forest. 】

  【Apoptotic Rose: Going out to sea from the Emerald Dream Forest? Then you should ask the mute. I had a few words with this lady not long ago, and she seems to live in this sea area. 】

Amberxiu’s face was full of doubts.

 The undead living in the sea?

 What kind of breed is this?
