This Lich Needs More Money

Chapter 453 It feels worse to see him making money than me losing money.

Amberxiu gave away the magic mirror for free, and carefully reminded Zariel to pay attention to the way he "discussed" with Tiamat.

Zariel took the artifact of the God of Alchemy and disappeared, as if he couldn't wait any longer.

As soon as he returned to Hell, Zariel set off immediately and found Tiamat, who was still sulking at home.

The astral gate is gone, all the astral red dragons are dead, there are only a few thousand Githyanki left hanging on, and all plans have failed.

"Damn lich!"

This is what Tiamat has been saying the most lately.

When Zariel appeared with a smile on his face, the five-headed dragon mother asked doubtfully: "Your smile is full of malice and conspiracy. Have you found a mortal to play with?"

Most people are not worthy of the Lord of Hell's expression, so Tiamat became somewhat interested.

"That's right, I just negotiated a deal that should earn tens of millions of soul coins." Zarrell said proudly.

Tiamat showed a shocked expression, Ten million! This is no small amount.

Souls are not worthless things like gold. Only how many souls can go to **** every year? How many devils are fighting for it in the whole hell? Doesn’t ten million equal the population of a small country?

"You are the one who was deceived, right?" Tiamat said without hesitation.

Who can come up with 10 million soul coins? The people of Lane no longer believe in the Lord of the Dawn, and they want to sacrifice the citizens collectively? This can't kill that many.

Zarrell said proudly: "Of course ordinary people can't take it out, but what if it's the lich?"

Tiamat's golden pupils suddenly glowed, which was anger turned into substance. He couldn't hear any news related to the lich now, unless it was news of the lich's death.

Zariel tried to seduce Tiamat and said: "I know you have a bad relationship with him, so I came to you. Aren't you ready to take revenge? Just like last time, we can harvest millions of sinners at once , and you can also harvest a lot of soul coins.”

Tiamat said, "I'm afraid you yourself were deceived by him. Do you really think we made a profit from the last transaction?"

The Unclean Ode was originally in the possession of the two Grand Dukes of Hell. The corruption of an entire kingdom would greatly enhance the reputation of this first level of Hell, and the gains would be immeasurable.

As a result, this harvest was greatly reduced by the lich's little actions.

Tiamat was the worst, because the content of the deal was that Amberxiu helped open the star gate. For this, she had to give Zariel a profit, so most of the benefits were swallowed up by Zariel.

As a result, the astral invasion plan failed, and Tiamat really suffered a loss and vomited blood.

"Anyway, this time I asked for 10 million, and he agreed. Not only that, I also helped you negotiate the price. He is willing to compensate your star realm red dragon, 60 red dragons, and 6 million soul coins. , the high-quality kind, I’m pretty good to you.”

"Six million?!"

Tiamat said angrily: "Do you know how much sixty red dragons are worth? How many years have I cultivated in the Star Realm?!"

"But it won't be worth anything if you die." Zarrell mocked mercilessly: "You can at least make some money back now."

Tiamat was speechless by these words, but he was not that easy to fool.

"This kind of good thing will make you think of me?"

Although the two are temporarily allies, there is no real friendship between devils. Zarrell not only hides such a good thing, but also specifically looks for him, there must be something wrong.

"If I can eat it by myself, of course I don't mind making money alone, but this time, the lich's request is too outrageous. It's far from enough for me alone, even if you are included."

Tiamat frowned tightly. She really couldn't think of what other demands this lich could make that would make Zariel embarrassed.

"He wants to kidnap Bribodup and give it to Talos."

Tiamat's expression was stunned, as if she heard something incredible. After waiting for a long time, he finally said: "Is this lich finally crazy? Does he know why gods are gods?"

Zariel couldn't help but want to laugh. He thought the same way at the time, but there was nothing he could do. Amberxiu gave too much.

"I didn't ask for the specific reason, but it was the best deal. Because he promised that he would solve the problems of positioning Bribodupu and solving the chaotic areas of Bribodupu. We only need to take action after he solves these problems. Just catch Briberdup. Sounds simple?"

The biggest problems when trying to deal with a **** are these two.

The first is to lock the opponent's position and find a way to enter the gate of the Kingdom of God. The second is to find a way to solve the impact of the Kingdom of God on itself.

If both problems can be solved, it won't be difficult for Zariel and Tiamat to deal with Briboldup.

Tiamat asked: "Even if he can't do it, will he still pay the commission?"

Zarrell said: "Of course, otherwise why would I say I will make a profit? However, I have brought you such a good deal, and you want half of your six million."

Tiamat quickly said: "It's impossible, and six million is too little! The lich can create souls, and the cost is much lower than killing people. Why did you ask for ten million?! If I ask, at least twenty million !”

"Then you can talk to him yourself." Zarrell said with an unconcerned expression.

"I just want to be on the safe side and avoid any accidents. After all, Bribodup is also a goddess with medium divine power. If you don't want to, then I can do it alone. Of course, you can also talk to the lich in person, However, based on your relationship with the lich, how much do you think he will give you?" Zariel looked convinced of Tiamat, but Tiamat said: "Zariel, we have known each other for a long time. Yes, I know your character very well. Wasn’t that what the lich taught you just now? Before you lie to someone next time, think about whether it is in line with your usual habits. "

Zariel's expression froze, as if Tiamat had hit his mind, and he gritted his teeth and said, "Okay, now that you've discovered it, I won't hide it from you. It's the lich who thinks that I am not powerful enough alone, so he must If he pulls you, maybe he wants to trick you again."

"What's the real price?" Tiamat asked.

Zarrell said coldly: "Eight million for each person, I will count your two million on myself."

"That's it?" Tiamat was a little doubtful: "Isn't the virtual soul created casually? He should be more generous."

Zarrell was helpless and explained: "This is his monopoly business, and he refused to let go. He said he was worried that the soul currency in **** would depreciate, and we would lose more by then. I didn't understand this either, so I said But him."

Tiamat said angrily: "This **** lich! He's just a counterfeiter!"

"Yes, a counterfeiter is too arrogant, but we don't have a choice, do we?"

"Can he really solve the influence of the Kingdom of God on us?" Tiamat asked: "If we can't do this, everything is meaningless."

"We can't do better. We can just collect the money. We don't have to work at all, and we can still watch his jokes. I'm really looking forward to breaking the agreement with Talos. What kind of punishment will this lich receive? Velsalun back then But it has made the gods talk about it for many years.”

"Then what reason do I have to refuse?"

Tiamat looked at Zariel's waist and found that his sword was no longer there. It must have been given to the lich as a contract item.

Tiamat stretched out her hand and picked off a dragon scale from between her eyebrows.

"Give this to him and say that I agreed to this deal, but not eight million but ten million soul coins, not even one less."

Zarrell took the dragon scale, but couldn't help but said: "What if he doesn't agree with this counter-offer?"

Tiamat said firmly: "Then just think of it as a small gain. I would rather everyone lose together, and I can't let him have his way. Seeing the lich take advantage is more uncomfortable than me losing money! At this price , never give in."

Zarrell nodded and said, "You're right, I'll get a raise too! Ten million for each of us!"

Zariel took Tiamat's dragon scales and left. He didn't laugh loudly until he was sure to leave Tiamat's territory completely and carefully put the dragon scales away!

"Hahahaha! The lich offered me 20 million and gave Tiamat 60 million. Now I have made a net profit of 70 million! It's so cool. It turns out that cheating other people's money is such a fun thing! No wonder That lich likes doing business so much, this is simply a hearty battle!”

It was probably the first time in his life that Zarrell was doing business so successfully, and he couldn't help but contact Amberxiu directly to show off his achievements.

When the dragon scale was delivered to Amber Xiu, Amber Xiu said to Zariel with a heartbroken expression: "You are bargaining too hard. If Tiamat knew about it, he would definitely I'll hate you."

Zarrell said nonchalantly: "We are all living in hell. Does it matter who hates whom?"

"It still has an impact, right? Tiamat is your neighbor after all. If he finds out, he will always cause trouble to you."

Amberxiu's words made Zariel feel that something was wrong, and he said doubtfully: "What do you mean by this? Do you want to tell Tiamat? Don't forget, this is the method you taught me."

Amberxiu shook his head and said: "How could it be possible? I never do such boring double-agent business. We don't just do one transaction. We will have many places to cooperate in the future. Anyway, I pay and give Is there any difference between you and Tiamat?"

Zariel frowned. He had a vague feeling that something was wrong. Could this lich have dug a hole and waited for him?

Amberxiu continued to maintain a polite smile, but said to Zarrell in a very serious tone: "Don't worry, I will pay the soul coins in full, but I don't know if you have thought about it, once a large number of soul coins start to circulate, Will Tiamat find out? After all, the difference between 70 million and 10 million is not that big."

Zariel asked, "What exactly do you mean?"

"What I mean is, don't spend these soul coins all at once. It will definitely cause serious inflation. It will not only devalue your original assets and attract the dissatisfaction of other **** princes, but also directly expose you to cheating. Tiamat.”

"If you don't have money, what's the difference between having nothing?!"

Zarrell absolutely cannot accept it. He is not a miser, and he cannot hide so much money. He has already planned how to spend this huge sum of money. It is impossible for him to hide it and not use it now.

"No, no, no, what I want to say is that 70 million soul coins is a huge amount of money for the entire hell, enough to shake the economy, so why don't you be bolder? Zarrell, have you ever thought about it? It’s not difficult to seize the entire soul coin transaction in Hell. It’s not difficult to let this huge amount of money go into Hell quietly. The difficulty is how to increase the influence of this money without letting other Hell’s princes know about it.”

"What exactly do you want to say?"

Zarrell already felt a little dizzy. Can this long detour be spent?

"What I want to say is that you, the Grand Duke of Hell, generally maintain their own territory, so the use of soul coins is in a very primitive state. Of course, the main reason is that the number of soul coins is too rare, and they are consumables, not Alternative equivalents. But this situation will not last long. I will continue to create soul coins, which will definitely cause an impact on your hell's economy.

“Zariel, have you ever thought that under this wave, you can do many great things.

"Like, building Hell's first Soul Coin Bank?"
