This Lich Needs More Money

Chapter 27 Dahei and Erha

The stench-filled sewer space is criss-crossed by various twisted pipes and canals. People who are not familiar with the terrain will be completely lost after walking around for two times.

 They not only have to endure the ubiquitous poisonous stench, but there are also many dangerous creatures hidden in the darkness.

 Fortunately, both the rogue and ranger classes are good at stealth.

Hasting and Hareth are brothers. People who know them generally call these brothers Dahei and Erha. On weekdays, the two brothers pretended not to know each other. Occasionally, they would sing the double act to seduce a newbie, and they also did things like cheating and cheating a few times.

This time I wanted to trick Amber Xiu, but I didn't expect that Amber Xiu was more thoughtful than the two brothers combined. He followed him all the way to the sewer, but he was not found, and the two brothers were in danger.

　　What was just a dirty and dark sewer suddenly turned into a large garden with beautiful scenery. Even the stench in the air disappeared and was replaced by the strong fragrance of flowers.

Thief Dahei frowned and said, "This is wrong. How can there be a garden in the sewers of the Alchemy City?"

Ranger Erha said carelessly: "Who knows, it's not surprising what those group of alchemists can come up with."

Dahei originally thought something was wrong, but after hearing what Erha said, he immediately relaxed.

 “You are right, this place is really nice, and the fragrance of flowers tastes really good.”

Dahei took a few deep breaths and felt relaxed physically and mentally, but he didn't realize that his eyes were slowly becoming bloodshot. The two brothers only walked in this garden for a few minutes, and soon they were like unconscious zombies, only knowing how to open their mouths and drool.

 At this time, a goddess covered in golden light appeared in front of the two brothers.

 “Mortals, you have intruded into the realm of the gods.”

The ethereal voice made the two brothers' dull faces show expressions of excitement. They looked at the beautiful goddess covered in golden light and hurriedly knelt on the ground.

Dahei drooled and said, "Beautiful goddess, which **** are you?"

“I am Mystra, the goddess of magic. You are lucky enough to have found my garden. I can grant you a wish.”

Erha showed a confused expression and said doubtfully: "Goddess of Magic? But, I am a ranger..."

Dahei couldn't wait to say: "Great goddess, I think, I want, I want you!"

In Dahei's eyes, this magic goddess is the most beautiful woman he has ever seen, and she can completely satisfy all his fantasies. He has almost lost his mind now, and he doesn't care whether it is blasphemous or not, he just wants to vent his inner desires.

Erha was startled by her brother’s straightforward and dirty request. This is a goddess!

Who would have thought that this shining golden goddess Mystra was not only not angry, but also let out a burst of sweet laughter.

 “You have good vision, mortal, and I will grant your wish.”

The goddess's answer made Dahei panic and furious, and he couldn't wait to pounce on the goddess and start chewing on it.

Erha looked envious and wondered if he should make the same wish later, but before he could make a wish, Erha felt a huge force coming from beside him, pulling him aside.

Erha didn’t react at all. He only felt dizzy and the scene in front of him changed drastically.

　　What was once a good place with birds singing and fragrant flowers turned into a dirty and smelly sewer. Erha suddenly had several burly men wearing leaves and deer antlers around him.

One of the dark-skinned burly men grabbed Erha's arm and warned: "Don't move. The ghost woman's illusion is too powerful. We can only barely isolate you. If you rush out again, we won't be able to save you."

Erha, who had just escaped from the illusion, hadn't figured out what was going on, so he said in a daze: "Rush out? No, where is my brother?!" Erha looked towards his original location, only to find that he was far away from Dahei. Twenty or thirty meters away, what shocked Erha even more was that he saw his brother holding an ugly old witch covered in sores and gnawing wildly.

 “Ugh!”

I don’t know whether it was a side effect of the illusion or a scene that was beyond my tolerance. Erha vomited and vomited. After a long time, he finally took a breath.

Looking at his poor brother again, Dahei was lying in the arms of the ugly monster with great satisfaction. His face and body were covered with disgusting filth, but he still had a happy expression on his face. What's even more tingling is that the ghost woman and Dahei are lying on a pile of rotten and mutated rats, their bodies covered with highly toxic ichor.

 “vomit~”

Erha couldn’t help it and vomited again.

 Looking again at the group of muscular men wearing leaves beside him, Erha suddenly felt grateful. If it weren't for their help, I might have gone through this desperate torture.

Erhalian said thank you a dozen times, and then asked: "Are you druids?"

The **** man who just pulled Erha said: "I am Fan Jones, and we are the druids of the Golden Vine tribe. We also accidentally fell into the hag's illusion, and there is no way to escape now."

Erha looked around and saw a total of six people dressed as druids, four men and two women, three of whom were gathering around and chanting, as if they were maintaining some kind of magic ritual.

Van Jones continued to explain: "We can only isolate the influence of the illusion through the Thorn Ritual, but even if we continue to rotate, we can't sustain it now."

Erha then discovered that all the druids looked haggard, as if they had not slept well for many days.

 “Then what are we going to do?” Erha said a little anxiously.

 He wanted to save his brother, but he might not be able to do it on his own.

 “I don’t know, we are just holding on for a vague hope.”

Van Jones also sounded quite helpless. They could not completely break the hag's illusion. They tried to attack the hag several times, but found that the other party was elusive. No matter whether they summoned beasts or used natural magic, they could not hurt the hag.

 And the illusion is continuously consuming the power of the druids. Once this thorn ritual stops, everyone will be confused by the hag again.

 The reason why they took action to save Erha was only out of the druid's kind nature, and also because he hoped that Erha could bring them a turn for the better.

 But now it seems that this ranger may not have a way to break the situation.

Van Jones sighed and said, "Sylvanus, perhaps this is the time when our souls return to the woodland."

Erha thought of Amberxiu and Naomi whom he met in the tavern, and asked, "Do you have another tribe member, a young female Druid with short blond hair?"

Van Jones said in surprise: "Do you know Naomi?"

"I don't know her, but I have seen her. She has also found help. She should have arrived at the sewer. If we hold on a little longer, maybe we can be saved." Erha said this, not only to comfort Fan Jones, but also to comfort himself. , he has no idea of ​​​​taking advantage of others. He just wants Amber Xiu to show up quickly and kill this hag.

Van Jones said in shock: "Naomi is back again? That child... is she crazy? It was a waste of all our sacrifices!"

Erha said anxiously: "Don't be discouraged. The helper she brought should be very powerful, and he is an undead. He is especially adapted to the sewer environment. He can definitely deal with this hag!"

 Van Jones suddenly grabbed Erha's collar in excitement and asked loudly: "What did you say, undead?!"
