This Lich Needs More Money

Chapter 243 Amber Xiu’s Invitation

Gustavo Flynn still doesn’t know what kind of existence he is facing.

Even though Apoptotic Rose dresses like a nobleman, Gustavo Flynn does not care about nobles because he has been in an infinitely superior environment for intellectuals all year round.

This is the impact of experience. There is a lack of respect for the nobility and a natural lack of knowledge, so that Gustavo Flynn cannot recognize the origin of the clothes on Apoptotic Rose.

If it were the Lane people, they would have turned around and fled long ago.

This is the black rose flower and corpse badge, exclusive to the Queen of the Undead.

 So by the time he felt his ears itching, it seemed to be already too late.

 Gustavo Flynn subconsciously reached out to touch his ear, but he grabbed the entire right ear.

Gustavo Flynn looked at the ear in his hand in disbelief. It was covered with traces of decay, as if it had been cut from a corpse that had been dead for several days.

Before he could confirm whether he was under an illusion or not, the rotten ear suddenly opened a mouth full of sharp teeth and bit his finger fiercely.

 The severe pain caused Gustavo Flynn to throw his ear out, but this time he could confirm that it was not an illusion.

Since the spell effect cannot be removed, let’s kill this weird woman first.

The coercive power of the command spell disappeared, and the Apoptotic Rose had flown to the corridor on the second floor, looking down at Gustavo Flynn from above.

Although Gustavo Flynn's expression didn't change much, he was completely angry inside. He must make this woman look good today.

This is wrong, what kind of spell is it? The robe he is wearing can block most spells.

The high-temperature flames and glass fragments seemed to be locked in one direction, spurting towards the Apoptotic Rose.

However, just when Gustavo Flynn was about to take action, a young man with black hair flashed in front of him.

 Gustavo Flynn raised his left hand, and another ring lit up.

Before the bottle was smashed, it turned orange in mid-air, and then exploded with a bang.

With a flash of light, Gustavo Flynn activated several magical equipment to relieve the abnormal state, but it was meaningless. The numb feeling had just disappeared and would reappear soon.

“Originally I didn’t want to get along with women, but now that lich can’t blame me for attacking his woman.”

 Warm blood flowed from the wound on his right ear, staining half of his face red.

Gustavo Flynn did not panic, but stared at the Apoptotic Rose and said: "What did you do?"

Gustavo Flynn found that the numbness came again, but this time it was not in his ears, but in his chest.

 Gustavo Flynn clenched his right hand, the ring on his index finger shone brightly, and his missing right ear quickly grew back.

 Command spell?

Apoptotic Rose recognized the enchantment effect on the ring, and her body quickly turned into a black smoke.

Apoptotic Rose said coldly: "Since you can't understand what I said, your ears are useless."

Apoptotic Rose froze the flames and debris in mid-air with a casual stroke, and then looked at Gustavo Flynn.

Apoptotic Rose only felt her body stiffen, and a strong force pressed on her body, making her crawl on the ground in embarrassment.

 A glass bottle appeared in his hand out of nowhere, and he threw it towards the Apoptotic Rose on the second floor.

Not only that, Gustavo Flynn is best at making magic equipment. He carries more than thirty pieces of various magic equipment on him. If this woman casts a spell on him, the spell-repelling necklace should come into play.

Ambersio smiled and said to Gustavo Flynn: "Oh, dear Flynn, old friend, why are you starting a fight at my house?"

It's strange that Amberxiu couldn't hear such a loud explosion.

 “You came just in time, otherwise you would have to find a new lover.” Gustavo Flynn said to Ambrose.

Amberxiu looked back at Apoptotic Rose, then at Gustavo Flynn, and asked: "Wait, you said this is my lover? Do you know who she is?"

 Gustavo Flynn said nonchalantly: "A necromancer? I don't know much about necromancy, but she looks like a mistress giving orders. I think she has a special relationship with you."

Amberson sighed, then leaned into this man's ear and said something.

Gustavo Flynn's eyes suddenly widened, and his expression of disbelief flashed away.

Amberxiu patted him on the shoulder and said, "Don't worry, I'm here. Let's find a place to talk slowly."

After finishing speaking, he turned to Apoptotic Rose and said, "Ms. Rose, my work has been completed. The things are placed in the laboratory."

Ambosio pulled the stiff Gustavo Flynn out of the hall and walked in a zigzag manner to a remote corner.

 Amberson smiled and said, "Flynn, you can breathe now."

Gustavo Flynn glared at Amberxiu. Although he was really frightened after knowing that the other party was the undead queen, he was not so nervous that he forgot to breathe. This **** lich was clearly mocking him. "Don't glare at me. I saved your life anyway."

 “Humph, I may not die either.”

 “Then do you want me to try again?”

Gustavo Flynn knew that he would never be the match of this lich in the matter of bickering. Only a fool would fight against Her Majesty the Queen.

Although the City of Alchemy does not have much interaction with the Underdark Region, he also knows how powerful this Queen of the Undead is.

The undead that survived Ryan's many sieges killed the drow in the Underdark to near extinction. The dwarfs and gray dwarves have completely surrendered and become slaves of the undead queen. She organized an event many years ago. A total of 200,000 undead besieged the Lion Imperial Capital during the raid.

 According to historical records, this undead queen killed three hundred paladins with her eyes on the battlefield and turned them into her undead slaves, scaring the people of Lane so much that they could only defend the city. It was obviously the nemesis of the undead, but the Lane people were besieged for fifteen days. If the Silver Moon Knight hadn't come back in time, the imperial capital might have been in danger of falling.

However, it was rumored that after the battle, the Queen of the Undead was also seriously injured. There were rumors that she completely perished after returning to the Underdark. But thirty years later, she returned to her underground kingdom again and brutally slaughtered the drow who occupied her kingdom, letting all the creatures in the Underdark know that the queen was back.

If he had known that the other party was the Queen of Roses, he would have turned around and left on the spot. At worst, he would have waited until the election to negotiate the price with Ambrose.

It's too late to say anything now. Gustavo Flynn didn't want to stay in the same castle with the terrifying queen, so he said to Amberxiu: "Humph, I don't have so much time to waste with you. Come today I’m talking about business with you, and I know you like money, so don’t bother with that pointless temptation. I want Isabel to support me in tomorrow’s election. Please give me a price.”

Amberxiu replied: "Ah? You said this, how simple it is, ten billion gold coins."

 “Can you be more serious?”

 10 billion. If he had 10 billion, it would be enough to directly bribe everyone to vote for him.

"I'm very serious, President of the Council of Alchemists! Think about it, how much was the previous president worth? Ten billion is a small amount." Amber Xiu said very seriously, as if he really thought so. .

Gustavo Flynn suppressed his anger and asked: "Do you think the Alchemist Council can still be the same as before?"

 “If it’s different, why do you want to be this president?”

Ambersio’s question made Gustavo Flynn stunned.

Amberxiu continued: "Flynn, we have known each other for many years. Among the alchemists in the Alchemy City, you are always the most ambitious. The president is just a lunatic who pursues the ultimate knowledge, but you prefer power and status."

 “What exactly do you want to say?”

 Gustavo Flynn felt that there was something in Amberxiu's words, and it was definitely not as simple as trying to raise the price with him.

“I mean, why not amplify your ambition? Is a mere council of alchemists as good as the chosen ones of the God of Alchemy?”

Gustavo Flynn gave Amberxiu a very contemptuous look.

"Do you know what you are talking about? The choice of the God of Alchemy? When did this God take a look at us alchemists? Is there any waste material added as fuel to your soul fire to make your thinking Has it become so confusing?"

The seven towers created by gods in the Alchemy City symbolize the greatest shame for all alchemists. This **** has never sent down any oracles or helped any alchemists complete their research. Destroy their careers when they are at their peak.

 Such a god, if he can't find a way to kill him, how can he be regarded as the chosen one?

"I know that you have great prejudices against the God of Alchemy, and the God of Alchemy rarely communicates with you. But for gods, it is normal to be a riddle. The alchemist and the God of Alchemy are two existences that can never be separated. Rather than continuing to be angry, it’s better to cooperate, don’t you think?”

 “What exactly do you want me to do?”

Gustavo Flynn found that he really didn’t understand Amberxiu at all. After knowing him for so many years, the lich could always come up with many new tricks for him.

"It's very simple. You continue to be your president, but I hope you can help me revitalize alchemy. All the countries in the mainland cannot do without alchemy products. You and I both know this. But I want alchemy to be able to be used in a short time. To revive within time, we need to cooperate.”

Amberxiu’s main task is to make alchemy great again. Before, he only wanted to build an alchemy factory, make his products popular in the mainland, and slowly restore the alchemy industry to its vitality.

 But after returning, he found that Isabel had discovered a new youth potion and had gained a certain reputation. Amberxiu's thoughts began to change.

 He has the technology and new formulas, but what he lacks now is the channels for mass production and sales.

Gustavo Flynn is like a gift from the goddess of destiny.

This old guy's identity, connections, and his understanding of alchemy are all superior to Amber Xiu's. With his cooperation, Amber Xiu's plan can be shortened by many years.

Now all he needs to do is nod his head in agreement.

 “Will you support me as president?” Gustavo Flynn asked.

“Of course, 10 billion is just a joke, you can’t really give me 10 billion, right?” Amberxiu said.

 Gustavo Flynn didn’t expect that his goal would be achieved so quickly. Could it be that this lich has changed his gender?

 But the next second he knew that he had guessed wrong, because Amberxiu said to him: "Ten billion is a joke, but the price of 30 million gold coins is very reasonable."
