This Lich Needs More Money

Lane's recent situation is indeed not right.

The border city was occupied, facing the orc invaders across the river. The people of Lane clearly had boats, but they did not dare to rush over to retake their own land.

This is a great humiliation, but after countless failures, the people of Lane realized that courage alone is meaningless.

The orcs are less afraid of death than the people of Lane, and in terms of humiliation, the orcs have been bullied by Lane for so many years, and they are here for revenge.

In terms of combat command, Anger Watson is indeed no match for the mysterious general.

After such a long time of inquiry, Anger Watson also learned the name of this difficult opponent-Umbano Pacheco.

A weak orc who has just turned twenty and has never been on the battlefield before.

Urbano Pacheco is not of noble birth. On the contrary, he is a "criminal" who is slightly better than a slave.

He was sentenced to a heavy sentence for theft and has been serving in prison.

Urbano Pacheco's body is not strong either. It can only be said that he is at the level of an ordinary orc. He is a qualified warrior when he picks up a weapon, that's all.

What really made him stand out was a battle against monsters. As a criminal, he was used as cannon fodder to attract wild monsters. Generally, if he didn't die as bait, he would be exempted.

But Urbano Pacheco didn't rely on luck, but risked being whipped to death and proposed another battle plan to the lord.

The specific details are unknown, but the final result is that Urbano Pacheco's tactics were a great success. In this way, Urbano Pacheco went from a criminal to a retainer of the lord. He was only seventeen years old at that time.

Two years later, the orcs held a national martial arts performance according to tradition. Urbano Pacheco helped his lord win the championship with his command ability, shocking the entire orc kingdom.

You have to know that the soldiers under the lord didn't even have a legend. They were the kind of cannon fodder who made up the numbers.

But Urbano Pacheco was able to see through the movements of all opponents and cleverly lure those powerful opponents into fighting.

When the last two legendary orc warriors fell to the ground exhausted, Urbano Pacheco emerged as a winner and won the championship.

This battle made Urbano Pacheco completely famous.

The orcs were not really brainless, they also hoped that their commanders could make them win every battle. It was just that the previous orc generals were tall among the short ones, and their personal combat effectiveness was very strong, but they could only charge forward with a roar.

There was no problem in improving morale, but when the large army fought, the orcs were like a pile of loose sand.

This was also related to the environment they lived in.

The orc kingdom was full of mountains and ridges, and it was impossible to fight a large army. It was all small elite fighting. In this case, it was not difficult to cultivate a fierce general, but it was difficult to cultivate strategic talents. Without this soil, where would the talents come from?

Even if a genius appeared occasionally, it was difficult to defeat the strong with the weak.

But Urbano Pacheco seemed to be the messenger sent by the orc god Gruumsh. After winning the martial arts championship, many orcs were unwilling to challenge him, but all challengers lost unless Urbano Pacheco himself went into battle.

The orcs then knew that Urbano Pacheco had really been blessed by the orc god and could communicate with any orc at any distance. Although this blessing did not look like the style of this god, it was undoubtedly powerful.

The orcs had been preparing for Urbano Pacheco's ability for a long time before launching this counterattack.

The results of the battle were very brilliant, putting the people of Ryan in a passive position.

Although the Emerald River was wide enough, how long could it stop these orcs?

The command level was not good, the troops were insufficient, and even Ryan's most advantageous war equipment was not as good as the orcs.

Anger Watson stood on the city wall, looking at the black spots circling in the sky, and couldn't help but punch the battlement.

The fist hurt, but the pain could not cover up the anxiety in Anger Watson's heart.

These flying things in the sky were getting closer and closer, and the reality of the city would probably be seen clearly by the other side.

When the orcs attacked again, Anger Watson really didn't know if he could stop them.

This anxiety had been tormenting Anger Watson until he heard the guards report that the image of a lich appeared on the magic mirror.

"Finally, finally!"

Anger Watson never thought that one day he would be worried about a lich, and he never thought that he would be relieved because of a lich's reply.

No matter how ironic it was, Anger Watson quickly ran into the council hall and came to the magic mirror.

"Master Ultraman, are you finally free?"

Anger Watson's voice was trembling with excitement.

"I'm sorry, I was too busy recently. You know, the volcanic sea area hasn't stabilized yet, and you ran away halfway. The other commanders are not as good as you, so it's not so easy to fight."

Ang Watson's face changed. He was not as naive as his brother Allen. The lich threw the responsibility on him with just one sentence. I'm afraid he would ask for compensation in the next sentence.

Ang Watson didn't spend a long time with the lich, but he knew the lich's character too well. He would never miss the opportunity to ask for a high price.

Sure enough, Amber Xiu's next sentence was: "For the sake of your brother and father, I won't mention the compensation. You sent me messages many times, saying that Ryan was going to buy an airship from me?"

Ange Watson's face was very ugly. The lich must have calculated the "compensation" into the price of the airship. There was absolutely no mistake. But Ange Watson had no choice now, so he could only grit his teeth and ask: "So, how much do you want, Master Ultraman?"

Amber Xiu in the magic mirror smiled and said: "Don't ask me the price so quickly. I have a question that needs to be confirmed. Are you buying on behalf of yourself or on behalf of Ryan? Ange, we are all old friends, you But don’t be like your brother and be regarded as a traitor for making a deal with me, that would be so embarrassing.”

Ange Watson was so angry that he wanted to use the Holy Kill, but within a few words, the lich even accused himself of treason.

No, I lost my cool.

Would it do the Lich any good to frame him with a charge of treason? That's not what he meant.

Ange Watson couldn't figure out Amber Xiu's thoughts, so he asked: "Ultraman Master, this is not important to you, as long as I can afford the price, then the rest is my business ”

"Oh, Ange, you are too arrogant. It's not like you haven't used my airship before, but it is a special form of undead. You are Ryan. Using the undead for reconnaissance will have a more serious impact than losing the battle. I You don’t want to turn around and put the responsibility on me, saying that I deceived you, and then put the blame for the defeat on me.”

Ange Watson said quickly: "When have we, Ryan, done this? Even when facing the undead, we will never put non-existent charges on each other's heads."

"Haha, you little emperor couldn't defeat the Githyanki and crushed your own soldiers to death. What's the result? It's clearly written on the wanted list that the blame lies with me."

"This... these are completely two different things!"

Amberxiu stretched out a finger and shook it, and said seriously to Ange Watson: "In my opinion, it's the same thing. Ange, I don't care what the judgment standards of you Lane people are. In my opinion, this is the same thing." It's a complete slander. It was Tiamat who summoned the Githyanki, and I was just a victim of her persecution. However, you didn't dare to settle accounts with this dragon goddess, and in the end you laid the blame on me.

"I'll tell you the truth, Ange. You Lane people have worse credibility with me than goblins. If you can't provide proof that the Lane Empire allows trading, I will never do business with you, lest I be betrayed by you later. You are cheating on me, and you are trying to frame me for several crimes.”

Angor Watson could hardly help but draw his sword and strike with the Holy Sword. This was the first time in his life that he heard someone comparing Lane and Goblins, and it was also a matter of credibility.

But what made Ange Watson even more angry was that he couldn't refute it at all.

Although the lich was exaggerating, what he said was true to a certain extent.

As a paladin, Ange Watson couldn't tell lies with his eyes open.

However, Angor Watson was much more mature than Allen after all. He quickly forced himself to calm down and said to Amber Xiu with a wry smile: "Haha, was this how my brother felt back then? Master Ultraman's mouth is really full of laughter. Even the gods will be afraid. But, Ultraman Master, are you really worried about this? Even if you are the first on Ryan's wanted list, you won't be affected. As for the payment issue, you don't need to worry about it at all, because I can do it. Pay the full amount first.”

"Pay the full price first? Aren't you afraid that I won't deliver the goods to you after I take the money?" Amber Xiu asked.

Ange Watson said: "Although Master Ultraman thinks that Ryan has no credibility, in my opinion, you still value your credibility. You will not destroy the reputation you have built before for this small amount of money. The loss will be It’s too big.”

"It's amazing. It turns out that among the sons born by James, Allen is the stupidest one."

It is true that Amberxiu did not prepare Black Lane's money, because doing so was indeed not worth the gain.

But Amber Xiu would not agree so easily.

"Ange, no matter what you promise, I will never believe you easily. After all, the orcs are my beloved relatives and friends, and doing business with you would be tantamount to betraying them. Not only will the price be very high, I also have a condition ”

Ange Watson quickly asked: "What are the conditions?"

Amberxiu said very seriously: "Let your emperor talk to me in person. Let him tell me personally that he allowed this transaction, and he will never turn his back on me. This condition is not an embarrassment to you, right?" ?”
