This Lich Needs More Money

Chapter 249 Dragon Blood Curse

Hodge Stone’s expression was so excited that even Amber Hewlett-Packard was infected.

This guy came over to tell him this before he even had time to ask questions. It seemed like it was really a great discovery.

Amberxiu could only say to him while painting the magic circle: "You tell me, I'll listen."

Hodge Stone was very dissatisfied with Amber's perfunctory attitude. This was a huge discovery that could cause a major earthquake in the history of the continent.

However, he could not make Amberxiu change his attitude. He could only explain: "Arthur Lane must have encountered a very serious physical problem at that time, so he left without saying goodbye."

"A legendary paladin can still get sick? Do you have any basis for this?" Amber Xiu asked puzzledly.

 Don't look at those paladins who always use "Holy Light", which is like a mantra and seems very unstyled. But the Holy Light is indeed a very good thing. Theoretically, the Paladin will not get sick, but will only age.

Arthur Lane is an extremely powerful paladin. It is not an exaggeration to say that he is a demigod.

　What can happen to the body of such a person?

Huggie Stone said firmly: "After chatting with His Majesty the Heroic Spirit, I can confirm what kind of character Arthur Lane was back then. Just as recorded in the history books, this Holy King was humble, kind, and determined. , and very responsible. Such people will not suddenly abandon the entire empire. There is only one reason, and that is if they encounter force majeure.

 Dragon Blood Curse, this is a very unpopular thing. Dragons are rare to begin with, and the conditions for the Dragon Blood Curse to be cast are very harsh. First of all, we need a giant dragon of legendary rank; secondly, we need this giant dragon to have deep hatred and would rather destroy its own soul and blend it into its blood to impose a curse; and finally, we need a dragon slayer who can kill the giant dragon. Dragon and bathed in dragon blood.

"When the dragon tyrant was killed by Arthur Lane, he preferred to destroy his own soul and imposed a dragon blood curse on him? This is wrong. This curse is so strong that it can be effective on gods. How did Arthur Lane survive? Over a hundred years old? He should have died long ago."

Hodge Stone was very unhappy when he saw that Umberto had deduced most of the content. This **** lich has read so many books, how come he even knows this. The giant dragons have disappeared for more than a thousand years, and he found the Dragon Blood Curse after searching thousands of books from the ancient books left by the Dragon Worship Cult. It turned out that the lich also knew about it.

 “Haha, do you want to know?” Heggie Stone said proudly to Ambrose: “For the sake of our relationship, how about two hundred thousand gold coins?”

But the Holy Light can cure all venereal diseases, so this is not a problem at all for Arthur Lane.

Amberxiu thought about it but felt something was wrong, and asked: "Then he disappeared because he was actually going for treatment? This is wrong. If it is just for treatment, there is no need to leave without saying goodbye. He and the people from the Ryan Empire The important ministers can just discuss it, who will stop him from getting treatment?"

 Other emperors may have had too much fun and got sick and did not dare to tell others.

Seeing that he could not get the money, Huggie Stone suddenly became anxious: "Why are you so stingy? Let me tell you, this secret is definitely worth two hundred thousand, because it is the key to the corruption of the Ryan royal family, and it is also related to the magic dragon. Tyrant related."

"Is it related to the Dragon Tyrant?" Amberxiu completed the last line of the teleportation array, then touched his chin and fell into deep thought. After a while, he asked Heki Stone: "Arthur Lane was cursed by the dragon's blood. ?”

Amberxiu's hand movements paused, and he couldn't help but say: "A terminal illness that cannot be told to others? Arthur Lane does not have a sexually transmitted disease."

 Ambrose saw Hedgie Stone's expression and said with a smile: "Haha, it seems that these two hundred thousand can be saved."

"But he is Emperor Ryan. What force majeure could have caused him to leave his empire back then? It couldn't have been the gods, because the Lord of the Dawn would not have watched this devout believer being plotted by other gods. So the only possibility is Arthur. ·Lane himself has a problem.

Hodge Stone smiled proudly and said: "Yes, you are quite smart, you discovered the problem so quickly. What if I said that this terminal illness cannot be known to other people in Lane?"

Amberxiu decisively refused. Just listen to the historical stories. Even if you know the deepest secrets of the Lion Empire, those paladin legions will not disappear out of thin air, and the impact will not be great.

"Sorry, my interest in this issue is not worth two hundred thousand. If you don't sell it to the Lane people, I believe they will give you two million in hush money."

Hodge Stone’s analysis is very reasonable, so Arthur Lane is likely to have some kind of terminal disease that cannot be cured by the Holy Light.

"I have carefully compared the records at that time. Lane did have records of purchasing various medicinal materials in large quantities and searching for doctors across the continent. But the reason given at that time was that the plague appeared in Lane and required medicinal materials and a large number of doctors to treat it. But you Think about it, what kind of plague is there to fear in an empire under the light of the Holy Light? If the healing skills of the Light Priest are not useful, why do we need other doctors? "

"Well…"

But since Ambrose had guessed it, Heki Stone could only sigh and said: "I guess it was the Lord of the Morning who helped him suppress the curse. So Arthur Lane couldn't suppress the curse when he was old. Only then will he take the initiative to leave.”

Amberxiu shook his head and said: "There is still something that doesn't make sense. This dragon's blood curse is the glory of Arthur Lane and the proof that he killed the dragon tyrant. There is nothing shameful about it. Why do you need to hide it yourself and throw it away?" How about leaving such a huge empire without saying goodbye?”

"I'm not sure about this, but this is the result I got from chatting with Arthur Lane. When they conquered the dragon, they made specific preparations for the various abilities of the dragon tyrant, but It’s not as simple as simply stealing the dragon tyrant’s artifact.”    “Expand?”

 “Will you give me money?”

“You don’t have to say it.”

 …

Hooky Stone gritted his teeth, knowing that it was impossible for him to get some gold coins out of this lich's hand. He wanted to keep it secret, but he couldn't help it. It's such a big secret, and now there's no one else but Amber Xiu who can communicate with it.

Hodge Stone was originally a very gossipy character, otherwise he wouldn’t like archeology, so he finally couldn’t hold it in and told Ambrose the information he had obtained.

The Dragon Tyrant had three near-invincible abilities.

 The first one is the power of time control as a time dragon. In order to further control time, he also refined such an artifact. The Time Dragon possessing this artifact is immortal. It can recover instantly regardless of any damage it receives. Even if it is killed, it can be resurrected on the spot.

 The second ability is the breath of the time dragon. Any creature hit by the breath will be reduced to ashes. Nothing can resist the power of time.

 The third one is his immortal dragon soul. Even if his body is completely destroyed, his soul can exist independently and is immune to most attacks. No matter whether it was the holy warrior's Holy Slash or other magic, it could not cause harm to his dragon soul, as if it existed in another plane.

 In order to solve these three major problems, Arthur Lane spent many years. He first stole the hourglass artifact and used his own will to replace the dragon soul left by the dragon tyrant on the artifact. Then he used this ray of dragon soul to forge a divine sword and obtained the weapon that could kill the tyrant dragon soul.

 It is simple to say, but Arthur Lane had more than a dozen companions at the time, and almost all of these heroes sacrificed for this plan. In the end, there were only three left, and one of them was the old king of the elves.

As for the dragon's breath of time, Arthur Lane couldn't think of any way. The only thing he could do was to kill the dragon tyrant before he breathed out his breath.

 So, Arthur Lane finally faced the dragon tyrant alone, and used the divine sword made from the dragon soul to kill him, and even his soul was completely annihilated.

 The Heroic Spirit did not know the final result, but he had all the memories of the early preparations, so Heki Stone deduced the factors of the dragon's blood curse from them. This divine sword can kill the tyrant's dragon soul. This is most likely because the dragon tyrant knew that he was bound to die and his soul would be destroyed, so he wanted to die with Arthur Lane before he died, so he chose to cast the dragon's blood curse.

There is of course no evidence. Huggie Stone believes that only the dragon's blood curse can make Arthur Lane helpless.

 “In the end it doesn’t make sense why Arthur Lane would hide it from everyone.”

This Holy King is not a pretentious character. On the contrary, this person is optimistic, cheerful, and magnanimous. It is impossible to hide his situation because of boring excuses such as "not wanting to cause trouble to others."

 Unless he gets old and becomes hypocritical?

 But the possibility is very low. People who can become paladins are not generally strong-willed, and it is difficult for time to change their personalities and habits.

Huggie Stone couldn’t figure it out either, so he could only say: “Maybe I can look for other information.”

Amber Xiu comforted him and said: "Although I haven't figured out the truth yet, it's good to have dug out so much information. By the way, my alchemy factory will be built soon. What do you have about the alchemy products commonly used by civilians? Suggestions? What is the best thing for desert people to sell?”

Huggie Stone replied without thinking: "What man can live without vitality potion?"

 “Ah this…” Amber Hew understood the meaning of Huggies’ call.

But it seems to make sense. Indeed, every man cannot do without vitality potion... After all, men need physical labor. One bottle can last for another hour.

  Could it be said that you want to design a new type of vitality potion to open up the market?

 But this is very difficult, because the vitality potion has been around for many years. After so many years of optimization, Amberxiu has no ability to come up with a cheaper and better formula.

  It doesn't mean much to him if he can't launch a new product to monopolize the market.

 However, men’s market cannot be occupied. Can we consider women’s market?
