This Lich Needs More Money

Chapter 218 The choice given by fate

Although Amberxiu said that he was almost successful, Catherine felt something was wrong and asked: "Is there something wrong? You look so stressed."

Amberxiu said unexpectedly: "Can you see this?"

How can a lich have any expression? Whether it is a skeleton or a mechanical body, it should be expressionless. Amber Xiu changed into a human form, but did not make any expression change. How did this girl see it?

Catherine said: "You don't usually talk like this, and I can't tell you. I just feel that your mood is not right."

Amberxiu said with emotion: "Awesome, Catherine, you have grown up and you have learned to distinguish other people's emotions."

The silly and sweet Elf Queen has also begun to develop into a smart person. As expected, those who are close to Zhu are red. After practicing with Amber for a long time, most people can become smarter.

 It was the same with Catherine, and it was the same with Harvey.

Amber Xiu only hopes that in the future, the people around him will be able to improve their intelligence in this way, so that it will be much easier to do things.

 “So, what’s going on?” Catherine asked strangely.

Amberxiu could only explain: "So far, our plan has been too smooth, and I have a bad feeling."

Amberxiu shook his head and said: "It's not the time yet. The real key is to create a false prophecy for Harvey. I haven't completed it yet, and the subsequent effects will not appear, and divination has no meaning. This kind of The warning is actually the opportunity that fate gave me to choose. If I stick to the original plan, big trouble will definitely happen. If I turn back now and give up on Harvey, the misfortune will not happen. "

 Catherine was a little nervous when Amberxiu spoke to her, but she didn't panic. After leaving Silvermoon Highgarden, Catherine's horizons were opened, and her adventures made her much more mature than before. No matter what the danger, she has the confidence to face it.

"Of course I'm not thinking too much. In fact, I already feel that something big is about to happen. Unfortunately, I don't know what it is yet." Amberxiu said.

From the moment she got to know this lich, Catherine felt that he was not only greedy, but also a bit paranoid about persecution, thinking about the worst in almost everything.

It’s unclear what the price will be, but it will definitely not be easy for Amberxiu.

 “It went well? We have been so roundabout, how can it be considered smooth?”

 She doesn’t quite understand the lich’s habits, but she doesn’t approve of this lifestyle either.

Having been with the goddess of destiny for a long time, Amber Xiu understands her "character" very well.

"Maybe you think too much." Catherine said it very tactfully. In fact, she wanted to say that Amberxiu was too pessimistic.

 The goddess of fate, who seems to be a green tea bitch, is quite fair in some respects. Amberxiu thought of modifying the prophecy to take advantage of the loophole. The goddess of fate gave Amberxiu this opportunity, but he must pay a corresponding price for fooling fate.

"Huh?" Catherine said doubtfully, "But the gods haven't responded to me for a long time. It seems that they haven't forgiven me for my mistakes."

“In the past few days, don’t follow me around. Be prepared and try to pray to the elves and gods.”

 “Be prepared, if you don’t get it right this time, you will really die.” Amberxiu said.

Amberxiu felt that what Catherine said made sense. With the power of the Golden Throne, he was considered the most powerful legend. Plus, Catherine, an elf queen full of artifacts, had a very small chance of being defeated, let alone If you can't fight, you can still run.

However, even though it has come, Amberxiu cannot give up now.

Catherine said: "Unless the gods take action, what danger can there be between you and me?"

  But having said that, preparations are still necessary.

Catherine looked puzzled. How could it be considered smooth to go back to the past this time?

 This is also called success?

What will it look like if it doesn’t go well?

Amberxiu said: "At least, we haven't encountered any unsolvable problems. You have to know that we are actually taking advantage of fate. Based on my understanding of this fate... this man is not an ordinary stingy person. No. Maybe he let me go so easily."

 “Can’t you use your ability to divine?” Catherine asked.

At first, they were trapped in an underground ruins with no way out, and then they encountered a bunch of disgusting toads. They finally found a way out, but it ended up leading to the garbage dump where the gods banished foreign objects. I don’t know how much thought Amber Xiu put into it. It was easy to get back to the desert.

Catherine's expression turned gloomy. This pitiful look made Amber Xiu couldn't help but comfort him: "Time is a very interesting thing. The elves and gods may not know that you have returned to the past, so if you pray to them now, Maybe it will arouse their curiosity.”

Except for Io, there is no omniscient and omnipotent god. Some gods have powers similar to omniscience and omnipotence, but they are also limited to their own priesthood.

Take the goddess of magic as an example. Her omniscience is limited to magic, while Ogma, the lord of knowledge, is closer to the category of creativity. There seems to be no time-related priesthood among the elves and gods, and they will most likely not be able to sense that Catherine has returned to the past.

In other words, Catherine praying to the elven gods now will make them sense the existence of two Catherines.

Once the gods are curious, they will naturally answer Catherine's prayers.

 As long as there is communication between the gods and believers, everything will be fine. Maybe Catherine can regain the favor of the gods. Amberxiu explained to Catherine, but Catherine shook her head and said: "Praying with this kind of mentality is the real blasphemy. The gods have given all the good things to the elves, and the elves can only be grateful from the bottom of their hearts. How could I What about using this little trick to plot against the gods? Once I do this, I will definitely disappoint them even more."

 Amberson:…

As a lich with little faith, Amberxiu really didn't think of this angle. But he has no say in matters such as belief. Since Catherine says this is wrong, he should listen to her.

 What Ambrose didn’t expect was that as soon as Catherine refuted his words, she was suddenly stunned.

"What's wrong?" Amberxiu asked with concern. Isn't it true that he was punished for blasphemy?

 Catherine's body shone with a silvery white light, and her whole body seemed to be bathed in moonlight.

 Fortunately, the two of them had returned to the hotel early, otherwise they would have been watched by people from Manna City.

After a while, the silver-white moonlight submerged into Catherine's body like running water, and then the Elf Queen opened her eyes.

 “Catherine, what happened just now?” Umberto asked.

Catherine said excitedly: "It's the goddess of the moon. She said that the gods have forgiven me for my mistakes. She has given me the blessing of moonlight. Under the moonlight, I will not be hurt anymore."

 “Haha, that’s… really… congratulations to you.” Amberxiu said through gritted teeth.

Emotions of envy, jealousy and hatred are overwhelming in Amberxiu's soul. Isn't this blessing a bit outrageous? Catherine made a big mistake before. Even if the gods were very happy with what she just said, you, the elves and gods, just forgive her and give her a blessing?

Amberxiu looked at the elated Catherine and couldn't help but ask: "Can you help me ask the Moon Goddess if I can be her disciple?"

 Catherine rolled her eyes at Amberxiu and said, "You want me to blaspheme the gods, right? Do you really believe in the gods? Don't you have any idea in your heart?"

 Amberson:…

 Damn it, what’s wrong with the pan-believers? As long as the elves and gods give them more benefits, it’s not like they can’t believe more.

I'm really jealous. The gods that Amberxiu met before all said they wanted him to be the chosen god, but in the end they didn't give him any benefits. Look at how generous these elves and gods are.

Amberxiu said helplessly: "Go and rest, I'm tired."

 Back in his room, Amberxiu temporarily forgot about the excitement just now and began to prepare for the possible accidents he might encounter next. Although I don’t know what it is yet, I must try my best to solve it.

Naomi in the private space has been sleeping for so long, and she should be almost recovered. She also needs to sort out the messy materials and make something by the way.

Amberxiu is busy here, and Harvey is almost finished.

Harvey lay on the bed with a hopeless expression. "Jagged Knife" sitting on the bedside said with satisfaction: "I didn't expect that you, a human being who looks thin and weak, can persist for a long time. I don’t have much experience, but don’t worry, I will teach you slowly.”

 Harvey sighed, he didn't know whether he should feel resentful or not.

 At first he resisted, but later he discovered that this female orc was actually quite beautiful if he looked closely.

Although her skin is dark, it is like satin. A few shallow scars not only do not look ugly, but give her a bit more wild beauty. Although he has the fangs of an orc, this person's facial features are actually closer to those of an elf, and at most his lips are thicker.

 Harvey is not an innocent boy. If you think about it carefully, he actually has nothing to lose.

 However, this orc is very beautiful. He doesn't mind a casual marriage, but he cannot be his male favorite for the rest of his life.

You still have to find a way to escape, but you have to find a suitable opportunity, and you have to cover it up well, and you can't stupidly tell the other person that you are running away.

 After thinking carefully for a long time, a vague plan began to emerge in Harvey's mind.

Harvey said to the "Sawtooth Knife": "How much money is still lacking in the tribe now? Didn't you say you want to change weapons for everyone?"

“I guess there’s still four to five hundred gold coins left. I want to change to some enchanted weapons this time. Why do you ask this so suddenly?”

"I think, let's go to the tavern tomorrow and let's win all these gold coins back together." Harvey said tentatively.

"Okay, I've said it before. It's better to win once. Going a few times will make you more likely to get into trouble." Jagged Knife happily held Harvey's face and said, "How about we do it again now?" ?”

 Harvey had a wry smile on his face, and his waist almost broke.

However, in order to make her lower her vigilance... Harvey could only smile and say: "Come here, let me drink a bottle of vitality potion first."
