This Lich Needs More Money

Chapter 22 Do you also lie to the undead?

Although Umbershoe did not invite them to drink, he threw a few gold coins to the dwarf singer.

This can be regarded as a huge reward, and Amberxiu instantly became the top dwarf singer on the reward list in recent years.

The little old man was immediately overjoyed and said respectfully: "Wow, generous Lord of the Undead, let me sing a mourning aria for you."

Amber Xiu said: "No, this reward is to shut you up."

At this moment, the drinkers who had been cursing just now burst into cheers.

The dwarf singer looked at Umbershoe angrily. This was a naked insult. He should have thrown the gold coins in his face and yelled at him, but... he gave too much.

Amberxiu felt comfortable for a while. Making money without spending money meant having no money. It felt so good to spend other people's money to become a wealthy person.

Of course, Amberxiu did not forget the business and took out another gold coin to give to the orc bartender.

 “I need a sewer guide, a top-notch one, and preferably a quick one.”

 Alchemy City pours waste potion materials directly into the sewers. The longer it takes, the more mutated monsters there will be in the sewers. As the number of monsters increases, powerful individuals will continue to emerge.

If you leave it alone, there is a high chance that monsters will be promoted to legend inside, which will cause big trouble.

Moreover, the paladin of the Lane Empire suddenly came here. Even though he said it was for training, Amberxiu felt that there was something hidden. There must be something big coming in this sewer. If he didn't hurry up, it might affect his experiment. Progress has been made.

 The power of money is very powerful. After Amberxiu threw the gold coin, three guides with different shapes appeared in front of Amberxiu as it was getting dark.

Standing in front of Amber Xiu were two men and one woman. The two male adventurers knew their professions just by looking at their attire.

"Let me see, a thief, a ranger, a... little girl, are you a druid?" Amberxiu asked strangely.

Rogues and rangers are both good guides, but what about druids?

Although the City of Alchemy is open to all races, Druids are an exception.

 Druids admire nature and believe that everything in the world has its own laws and should not interfere too much, but should maintain the balance of everything.

As for the Alchemy City, we know from twisted creations like mercury slime that this group of madmen can do anything.

These are two completely opposite beliefs. It is not surprising that Druids and Alchemy City are mortal enemies. However, the number of Druids is small and scattered across the continent. They have not formed a strong alliance, so they do not have much influence with Alchemy City. Big conflict.

 But druids generally do not enter the scope of the Alchemy City. Even the affiliated city-states stay away from them, and they are very resistant to people from the Alchemy City communicating with them. This kind of resistance is a bit like a child's "I won't play with you." The Alchemy City has never issued an order prohibiting druids from entering.

  In any case, it is quite rare for a Druid to appear in the Alchemy City.

"Yes, I am a druid. Don't you need a guide? I have entered the sewers of this city and I know where there are the most slimes."

This little human girl looks to be in her twenties. She has a strong body, which is in line with the natural and wild style of the Druid.

“Don’t be anxious yet. Everything is first come, first served. I’ll talk to these two first.”

The thief brother is very ruthless. He charges three hundred gold coins at a time, and he is only responsible for leading the way to two slime gathering places. There is no guarantee whether there are real slimes inside.

"Now the sewers are changing every day. Although I am sure that slimes existed in those two locations, it is hard to say now. Anyway, the price is three hundred gold coins, and I will not participate in the battle. I will run away by myself when in danger. ” ˆ ˆ What a neat and concise agreement to cheat money.

Just not being guaranteed to find a slime is enough of a trap. Maybe he just points to a place and says a slime has appeared, and then takes the money and leaves.

This kind of contract is a complete lie to the rookie. Amberxiu didn't even bother to bargain with him. I'm afraid this guy is not a simple liar.

 The second half-elf ranger seemed much more upright, and asked for five hundred gold coins.

"Five hundred gold coins, I can agree with you to help you find at least a hundred slimes. Of course, I can only guarantee that you will encounter them. You still need to handle the capture work. If you encounter danger, I can summon My beast companions help break up the rear, but I will choose to evacuate depending on the situation, with the primary goal of protecting myself.”

 The conditions are very reasonable, but the problem is that the price is too expensive.

If you just hire a guide, the price is too exaggerated. Amber Xiu's psychological price is two hundred gold coins, and the gap is really too big.

Amberxiu tried to bargain with the ranger, but this half-elf didn't know if he was mixed with dwarf blood. He had a foul and tough personality and refused to give up a single gold coin after talking for a long time.

“Sir, is it time to hear my price?” the Druid girl said anxiously.

"You haven't left yet?" Amberxiu said strangely: "You just heard it, right? I am an undead? You, a druid, still want to cooperate with the undead?"

The druid girl crossed her arms and said in a matter-of-fact tone: "What's wrong? Isn't this an open and tolerant alchemy city? When you go to a place, you must abide by the rules of that place. Druids and the undead can also cooperate friendly of."

 Amberson didn’t believe it at all.

Undead creatures are a race that has completely reversed the law of life and death, and are absolutely in conflict with the teachings of the Druid. When Amberxiu talked to the other two people just now, he confessed his identity as an undead, lest they use the excuse of "fraud" to deceive them. money.

I thought this druid girl should have turned around and left long ago, but who would have thought that she was actually preparing to recommend herself? Doesn't this clearly mean that she has other desires?

Amberxiu knew at a glance what secret this druid had, but the last thing he wanted to know now was the secret. The more trouble you get into, the more things will be delayed.

Reason told Amberxiu that he should reject this druid girl directly. However, this girl, like a prophet, said something that he could never refuse.

 “I don’t need to charge money!”

 A powerful sentence, every note shook Amberxiu's soul.

 “What did you say?” Amberxiu asked in disbelief.

This druid girl directly pushed away the two competitors, supported the table with both hands, and said in a very strong tone: "I said, I can help you find a lot of slimes for free, and I will also I won’t run away. If you are in danger, I will help you stay behind to ensure your safety.”

Amberxiu looked at this druid girl and thought: "This time I really encountered someone who burned newspapers in front of the grave to fool people."

　　Being a guide for no money, and returning to the throne when in danger, no one with an IQ higher than a slime would believe it.

 You can also lie to the undead, don’t be too outrageous.
