This Lich Needs More Money

Chapter 238 Flynn’s Struggle

The ruins of the original Alchemy City have now been mostly cleared.

The dwarves work on the ground much faster than other races. Such a large sinkhole has now been filled in. The prototype of the city can be vaguely seen above, and even the city wall has been mostly built.

If you look down from the sky, you can still see the shadows of many magic circles in the layout of the city, and a large amount of gold has been cast and poured into various parts of the city. The dwarves are really rich and dare to use gold to build cities.

It is conceivable that when the city is rebuilt, it will become magnificent and impregnable.

Gustavo Flynn’s new home is in this city.

When the Alchemy City was destroyed, Gustavo Flynn ran to Silvermoon Highgarden, originally hoping to settle down there again.

Although the elf is xenophobic, he is a legendary alchemist and a famous figure on the mainland. It should not be a big problem if he wants to settle there.

However, reality gave Gustavo Flynn a resounding slap in the face.

The elves kicked him out... This may be a bit serious, but they should have asked him to leave very politely. Then Silvermoon Highgarden was completely closed to the country, leaving only the necessary trading channels for magic materials.

The previous Council of Alchemists never wanted to see these dignitaries. Those who had not published an article in "Legendary Curse" were not even qualified to listen outside.

 “Well, when did the alchemist fall to this point?”

Gustavo Flynn returned to the Alchemy City after the war... Oh, now this city has been named the New Gold Capital by the Dwarf King.

Money is not a problem. Although he cannot afford more than a hundred gold coins, his name is still very valuable. Just by signing a few contracts, Gustavo Flynn received several million gold coins in funding.

Smart people all know that mainland China cannot do without alchemy. He should be prepared now. When public opinion recovers, he can make a lot of money and regain his position as the leader of the industry.

 Gustavo Flynn has not been idle either. He has been traveling in many directions during this period. With his fame, he finally opened up the relationship with the dwarves and met the dwarf king.

Now, the alchemists have to lower their status and socialize with these powerful people.

Gustavo Flynn's hatred for Umberto has become too strong to be resolved.

Of course, this parliament does not have any political rights. It is just a semi-official organization and is in the nature of an industry association.

fame, status and wealth, these things will return to Gustavo Flynn's hands.

 “It’s all that **** lich!”

Gustavo Flynn talked with the dwarf king for a whole day before he got his approval and allowed him to reorganize the Alchemist Council.

 But no matter how much I hate it, life has to go on.

In the past, Gustavo Flynn didn't bother to take a second look at this small amount of money, but the disappearance of the Alchemy City took away most of the rich people, and it was already very difficult for the remaining small families to collect so much.

Gustavo Flynn was dumbfounded. This was not at all what he expected. He had just spent his last savings to buy a house in Silvermoon Highgarden. With this departure, Gustavo Flynn became completely pauper.

 In any industry, the highest level earns the most.

But this is not bad, Gustavo Flynn just wants to use this organization to re-establish the alchemy system.

This little money is not enough to rebuild his laboratory, but it finally allows him to stop worrying about food for the time being.

The disappearance of the Alchemy City is related to Amber Xiu. After talking to Amber Xiu, the elf queen of Silver Moon Highgarden chose to seclusion and expel all outsiders. Amber Xiu has ruined his life plan twice in a row. .

Gustavo Flynn needs to rebuild his laboratory and resume his old life.

In order to quickly restore the influence of the Alchemist Council, Gustavo Flynn also broke the previous rules and invited not only the alchemists, but also a large number of high-level officials from the dwarf kingdom and many local nobles to participate.

 Gustavo Flynn sighed in his heart. It was crazy to go crazy, but when he was still alive, the alchemist was so prosperous.

However, he soon strengthened his confidence. Gustavo Flynn believed that one day he could reach the height of the president and turn this golden city into an alchemical city again.

 The first step is to hold the founding ceremony.

 The members of the Alchemist Council have already drawn up a list. Counting Gustavo Flynn himself, there are only two legendary alchemists. Another legend is the court alchemist of the dwarven kingdom.   And this is also a former member of parliament who was expelled from the Alchemy City.

When the president wanted to start that crazy god-making plan, there was a lot of opposition in the council. This man left the council because of disagreements with his ideas. Who would have thought that he would go to the dwarves and work as a court alchemist for decades.

 The biggest trouble now is this one, because he is preparing to compete with Gustavo Flynn for the position of president.

The electoral vote at the founding ceremony is the key. Gustavo Flynn must repeatedly confirm the intentions of those voters to ensure that he can win the election.

Most of the powerful people have already communicated with each other, and they have won what they can, and the only ones left are the other people on the list.

 This is the advantage he gained back, and all guests attending the inauguration ceremony were eligible to vote. If this were not the case, his opponent would have won long ago. After all, Gustavo Flynn's relationship with the Dwarf Kingdom was far inferior to that of his opponent.

So, those minor nobles and little-known alchemists became the targets of Gustavo Flynn.

 The minor nobles are easy to talk to. Most of them are locals, so they are naturally on his side. These minor nobles also need a spokesperson to represent the interests of the people of the original Alchemy City.

 The real problem lies with the invited alchemists.

As we all know, alchemists all have a sense of truth first. If Gustavo Flynn's opponent is not a legend, then he will definitely win without canvassing votes. The problem is that the two are about the same level, and both sides have different skills in alchemy. Achievements also have their own merits, so these alchemists may be swinging one way or the other.

Must win them all, otherwise you will lose.

 Looking at the list in his hand, Gustavo Flynn’s pen stopped on the name Isabel.

The girl without a surname, who could tell at a glance that she was not from a noble family, became famous for refining a new type of youth potion. This dual identity of a beautiful girl and a rising star in the alchemy industry will make her the idol of many young alchemists, so Isabel's ticket is very important.

"It seems that I haven't received a reply to the invitation letter I sent before. I should pay a visit before the official start. Damn it, but I really can't get away these days."

  Gustavo Flynn’s canvassing schedule is so full that it’s hard to find time now.

Just when he was about to send his men to visit him, he heard his servant say that someone was coming to visit him.

 As soon as he heard the visitor's name, Gustavo Flynn couldn't help but frown.

 Doll Baker, this is the court alchemist of the dwarf kingdom and his former friend.

 A moment later, a man with gray hair and a very thin appearance appeared in front of Gustavo Flynn.

As soon as Dole Baker appeared, he said straight to the point: "Flynn, you are still worried about canvassing, right?"

“Baker, you should know very well that I will not give up my position as president. Why did you come to me today just to talk nonsense?”

Gustavo Flynn was not polite at all, with an expression of disgust on his face.

But Dole Baker was not angry. He just said calmly: "Flynn, give up. I regard you as a friend and remind you. His Majesty the King will not allow an uncontrolled Alchemist Council to exist. President The responsibility can only be done by me. If you continue to fight, there will be no good results. "

"Humph, the Dwarf King has promised us that the election results will prevail, so why are you here to scaremongering? How do you know that I will not be loyal to the Dwarf King after I become the president? As far as I know, your relationship with the Dwarf King It's not very good, because the medicine he used when he was seriously ill had no effect on him.

“Now that the Dwarf King has recovered his health, does he have doubts about your ability? Or does he want to change to a court alchemist?”

Gustavo Flynn only thought that his opponent was here to disrupt his plan. Perhaps he resorted to such threatening methods because he felt that he was going to lose. This seemed to be good news.

Dole Baker shook his head and said: "You will not be loyal to anyone. You don't need to remind me of this. You know it yourself. As for the relationship between me and His Majesty, you don't need to speculate. I just remind you for the sake of our past friendship." . If you continue to fight, you will not only lose, but you will also end up with a good outcome. If you accept my advice, I can make you the vice president."

“No need to talk nonsense, we will know who wins and who loses when the time comes.”

 Gustavo Flynn did not give in at all. He had made up his mind to return to his former peak step by step.

Dole Baker glanced at his opponent, swept his eyes across the table, happened to see the circled name, and asked: "Isabel? I have heard of this name. He is a good young man. Are you ready to fight for it?" Her vote?"

 Gustav Flynn said coldly: "It has nothing to do with you."

"Haha, of course it has nothing to do with me. I have no grudge against the lich, but you. Don't you know that this girl is a student trained by the lich?"
