This Lich Needs More Money

Chapter 188: Middlemen make the difference

　　A shipbuilder uses his own soul to pour out a ghost ship before he dies. This is as great as a mother using her own flesh and blood to feed her baby when disaster strikes.

Although this answer is cruel, it is worthy of Ai Ge’s search and waiting for so many years.

 It’s just that I don’t know if this person can accept it.

 With a demigod-level undead going crazy? Not many people here will survive today.

Ai Ge stared at Amber Xiu and asked in a deep voice: "According to your statement, if I want my father to be resurrected, I must die."

Amberxiu shook his head and said: "No, even if you are willing to sacrifice, you cannot resurrect your father. What has happened cannot be changed. He used his soul to water you to grow. This is the fact that has happened, and there is no reversal. possible.”

 “There is no hope at all?” Ai Ge continued to ask, but her voice was already trembling.

Amber Xiu also couldn't bear it. Ai Ge had paid too much for this, and I'm afraid it would be difficult to accept such a cruel result.

"It's absolutely impossible, but it's not impossible. If Io is willing to help you, the power of the gods is enough to fulfill any wish. However, just praying is not enough. Io will never give blessings to mortals. Regardless of whether you believe in him or curse him, this supreme **** will not even look at the mortal world. Only the real gods can make Io pay attention.

“Captain Ai Ge, you are only one step away from condensing your godhead. What you lack is an opportunity. And this opportunity may come soon.”

King Wrath came over excitedly and said, "Is the deal settled?"

 But the problem is, Amber Xiu also wants to become a god.

Amberxiu stopped laughing immediately. This request was not simple.

He is not just a lich, nor a mage, there are too many godheads suitable for him.

Amber Xiu used the flying technique to float in the air and quickly returned to the shore.

Regardless of the fact that both of them are undead, Ai Ge is more inclined towards powers related to the ocean, navigation and plundering. Amber Xiu is a lich, so he is more inclined to be a spell caster. They are indeed distinct. If you think about it, there is really nothing between them. conflict.

Amberxiu breathed a sigh of relief and finally let this person calm down.

If you want to become a god, either Io can respect your appointment, or you can only wait for a vacancy. The gods are immortal, so how can they be vacant? Then only those weak gods will be killed during the battle between gods, and then the godhead will be vacant.

 Seeing Ai Ge readily agree, Amber Xiu was also very happy.

Ai Ge said nonchalantly: "Whatever you want, I don't care about this. I heard that you especially like to make money from both sides. You made a lot of money from the elves and dwarves before, right? How much does the Kingdom of Rage give you? Talk to yourself, I don’t need these things.”

 “What about cooperating with the Kingdom of Rage?”

 If there is a chance then, will you go up or not?

Amber Xiu discussed it and said: "Captain Ai Ge, you should know that the godhead is much more precious than the artifact in front of you. I don't want to be a free hand, but I just want to discuss it with you, Commander. Even if a **** really dies, the vacated godhead will still have to be adapted. You and I have different paths. If you are so lucky to get the chance to become a god, whoever is suitable will become a god. How about this?

But Ai Ge said: "Don't agree so quickly. I don't need money, but I need to become a god. I believe you know where the opportunity is. When the time comes, you have to help me!"

 “I’m leaving first. I won’t care about the Furious Tide Kingdom.”

 “Okay, I promise you.”

　　After discussing the business, Ai Ge didn’t want to stay long. The huge ghost ship dived into the water. It was obviously a small lake with a depth of less than 20 meters, but the ghost ship was able to completely blend into the water and quickly disappeared.

Amberxiu's words made Ai Ge's eyes shine again. She said excitedly: "You're right, I actually forgot that there is this way. Although the hope is slim, it doesn't matter. I have unlimited time to go." effort."

Amberxiu immediately grinned and said, "That's so embarrassing."

Ai Ge thought for a while, but did not refuse. It is true that gods are not chosen casually. If the power is not suitable, I am afraid that even weak divine power will not be enough, and it is simply not suitable.

Amberxiu nodded and said: "Yes, the Silent Night Pirates promise that they only need 10 million gold coins per year to ensure that they will never rob the ships of the Kingdom of Rage again. Whether it is a fishing boat or a merchant ship, they can Pass through the territory at will.”

The king frowned and said, "Ten million gold coins? This... this price is too expensive!"

The Kingdom of Rage is the poorest among the nine kingdoms. Ryan can throw away tens of millions in a casual bet, but for the Kingdom of Rage, ten million gold coins are very painful, let alone every year. Amberxiu said: "Your Majesty, I also know that the price is very expensive, so I discussed with the regiment leader that we can only give half of the gold coins and replace the rest with supplies."

But the king said: "Isn't that different? Five million gold coins of supplies, that's also five million gold coins!"

Amberxiu smiled mysteriously and said in a low voice: "Your Majesty, the undead are not coming ashore. How do they know the specific prices? If we use the false report of two million to five million, they will not know. But in order to prevent the undead from coming ashore, "We are too worried. The first year must be settled entirely with gold coins, and part of it will be deducted later with supplies."

When the king heard this, he suddenly showed a surprised expression. He really didn't expect this move.

The king hesitated for a moment, and then said: "Seven million gold coins? This price is not unacceptable."

This price is right at the bottom line of the Kingdom of Rage. Amberxiu saw their military expenditures from Meng Gray River's memory, as well as the costs spent on dealing with the Silent Night Pirates over the years. After careful calculation, these seven million gold coins should be the limit that the Kingdom of Rage can promise.

 The higher the number, they would have to hesitate for a long time, and Amberxiu didn't have time to waste here.

Now that the artifact is in hand, it’s time to run back to the Green Dream Forest and get down to business.

Amberxiu's calculations were very accurate. After returning to the palace, the king discussed with the interior ministers for a while and calculated for a long time to confirm that the deal was profitable, and then officially confirmed it.

Although doing this is against the teachings of the Lord of Storms, after calculating this calculation, the Kingdom of Rage can still save millions of losses every year. For the sake of the country, it can only accept it.

Of course, another reason why it went so smoothly is that Ai Ge showed her powerful power.

Having witnessed the power of Ai Ge with his own eyes, King Wrath realized how slim the chances of winning this war were. With Ariel firmly on Amber's side, the king naturally chose to compromise.

Amberxiu casually took out a contract and said it was prepared by the Silent Night Pirates, and asked the King of Rage to sign it. This transaction, which was all based on deception, was completed.

 The shadow that had shrouded the Kingdom of Rage for a thousand years suddenly disappeared. The king felt a little lost, feeling as if he had entered another era.

Regardless of what they thought, Amber Xiu immediately asked for help: "Your Majesty, without further ado, I will take the gold coins to the deep sea to trade with the undead."

 It's time to run away. This trip has already taken nearly eight days, and there are more troublesome problems to solve.

Has Naomi mastered the ability to transform into a dragon? How to use this artifact hourglass to allow Naomi to master the power of time.

These are the ones that take the longest.

 Amberson wanted to run away, but the king didn't want him to leave.

“Do you, the hero, need to go in person to deliver gold coins? I can just send someone to deliver it. Meng, your usual work is already very busy, so don’t waste your time on such trivial matters.”

After this unexpected incident, King Angry Tide was very satisfied with Amberxiu's ability. He is now thinking about seizing the time to get him married to Ariel and give birth to an outstanding heir for the kingdom as soon as possible. After all, Meng Huihe is over forty and is almost past the best age for childbearing.

Amber Xiu vaguely felt that something was wrong. If he didn't run away, he would get into trouble. He quickly said: "Your Majesty, this is the first time in thousands of years that I have cooperated with the Silent Night Pirates. I'd better go and watch it in person to feel at ease. Moreover. "This time I go to sea not only to find the Silent Night Pirates, but also to go to the Green Dream Forest."

The king asked strangely: "Emerald Dream Forest? What do you want to do? Those druids have always refused to deal with us."

"Your Majesty, with your intelligence, you should have discovered that the structure of the Nine Kingdoms is changing rapidly. The Alchemy City was destroyed, Lane occupied half of the dwarves' desert, and the dwarves had to retreat to the location of the Alchemy City. The Elf Race The country has begun to seclusion, and Green Dream Forest has been preparing for war for many years... Your Majesty, the war is coming, and even if we are on overseas islands, we may not be able to escape it.

"Before this war begins, we need more allies. I heard that the Elf Queen Catherine is visiting the Emerald Dream Forest. The elves and the druids have always had a good relationship. They must be discussing a union. This is the best If you have the opportunity, I will send an envoy to Cuimeng Youlin on behalf of the Raging Tide Kingdom, and maybe I can unite the two kingdoms at once."

Amberson's words were true, and King Angry Tide was fooled into thinking again.

The king said worriedly: "But the relationship between those druids and us has always been very bad. How could they agree to unite?"

Amberxiu continued: "That was before. Now Ryan has swallowed half of the desert. The next target is obviously Emerald Dream Forest. The druids have some friction with us, but compared with national events, this Little things don't matter. The Rage Kingdom has no intention of competing with them for territory, and Ryan is their biggest enemy.

"But our Kingdom of Rage is the rear of Emerald Dream Forest. Once they go to war with Ryan and we harass the rear, life will be difficult for the druids. Besides, Your Majesty, we just lost a lot of money on the undead." Millions of gold coins, can’t you get this back from the druid?”
