This Lich Needs More Money

Amber Xiu sent a message about his impending death in the chat group, but after a long time, there was no response.

Only the dwarf vampire was as timely as usual, but he replied: [What are you pretending to be? I don’t understand this time. ]

Amber Xiu was really speechless this time. Why does this dwarf not believe every time he tells the truth? Has this guy been cursed by the Lord of Knowledge and can’t judge the truth in this life?

But this time, it’s not just the dwarf vampire who doesn’t believe it, basically all the group members don’t believe it.

Especially the headless knight Gareth, he even asked back: [Who do you owe money to? You actually use this trick to avoid debt? ]

[Pale little skeleton: You want to default on the devil’s debt? There’s no need, you can pay it. ]

[Mute: What’s this joke? You are a lich, don’t tell me you have made enough money. ]

[Dead Rose: If you are tired recently, come to the Underdark to rest and train those drow elves. ]

[Don't like humans: Most likely he's laying the groundwork again. Next, he's going to say something shocking to the group members, and let's applaud enthusiastically. I've seen through you. Let's skip these boring and rubbish foreplay and get down to business.]

...

Looking at the group members talking and laughing, Amber Xiu could only repeat one sentence: [No foreshadowing, this is what I'm going to say. Friends, my death is coming. This is the destined ending of the prophecy mage.]

This time, there was real silence.

Amber Xiu began to settle accounts with the group members as if he was writing a suicide note: [Senior Ai Ge, a large number of Kou Tao fishmen will gather under your command in the future. Although the power of faith provided by the awakened Kou Tao fishmen will become weaker, this power should be enough to support you to achieve your wish, and our contract will be completed.]

[Gareth, I will hand over all the overseas alchemy business to Isabel. She is my student. She is still a little short of ability now, but if she is given a few years, her achievements in alchemy will surpass mine. Just leave it to her. 】

【Ms. Rose, I will send all the information of the mercury zombies to the Underdark. With the current scale of mercury zombies, it should not be difficult to carry out subsequent reproduction. As for the plan to destroy Ryan, I am afraid I can't continue to complete it, but I will leave all the arrangements on Ryan's side to you...】

Amber Xiu wrote a lot of words in a fluent manner. This time everyone finally understood that Amber Xiu was not joking, but was really preparing for his funeral.

For the members of the Mourning Poetry Society, this situation was really the first time they had seen it.

The dead are immortal and will only die because of accidents. No dead know when they will die, and they will not arrange their own affairs after death like a terminally ill old man.

They have never seen Amber Xiu in this situation.

Everyone was silent, only the withered rose couldn't believe it and interrupted Amber Xiu's last words.

【Withered Rose: Shut up now and wait for me to come to you. 】

This declaration ended Amber Xiu's long speech. Amber Xiu had to close the Codex of the Dead and wait for the arrival of the queen. He himself did not expect that a last will could make the Withered Rose so excited.

Didn't he leave all the connections and resources related to Ryan to her? This is really his best effort.

Withered Rose came very quickly, and brought Melina with her.

As soon as she saw Amber Xiu, Withered Rose grabbed his arm and said in a cold tone: "Open your private space, let's go in and talk."

The creditor came, and Amber Xiu had to do it.

Entering the messy private space, Withered Rose confirmed that the time flow rate had been adjusted to one year inside and one day outside, she sat down and said to Amber Xiu: "What's going on? Why are you going to die for no reason?"

Amber Xiu had to tell him about Selwyn sending a suicide note.

The withered rose said doubtfully: "It's just a suicide note, what does it have to do with you."

Amberxiu could only explain: "It's hard for outsiders to understand, but you can think of this suicide note as a bow. Once a special bow appears in the story, it must shoot the fatal arrow. In my eyes, the arrow has pierced my soul and cannot be changed."

At the moment when the suicide note turned into a scroll, the future that Selwyn tried hard to cover up also appeared in Amberxiu's soul. He saw a blurry picture, but he clearly knew that it was his own death.

The withered rose said unwillingly: "You have a relationship with so many gods. With your teacher, can't the God of Alchemy save you? It should be very easy for Him to promote a subordinate god."

Melina also echoed after hearing this: "Father, you can't give up. Use your invincible wisdom to solve the problem!"

Amberxiu saw that the two were still unwilling to give up. It seemed that it was really difficult for outsiders to understand the state of waiting for death of the prophecy mage.

Only by letting them see clearly that fate cannot be defied, can they understand what state Amber is in now.

"Okay, then ask my teacher."

Amber immediately contacted the God of Alchemy, and the image of the God of Alchemy quickly appeared on the magic mirror.

The God of Alchemy swung his crystal hammer as usual. Every time he saw him doing experiments, the god put down the hammer and said to Amber: "My dear student, which god did you offend today? Do you want your teacher to help you clean up the mess?"

Amber did not joke with the teacher this time, but said calmly: "Teacher, can you promote me to be your subordinate god now?"

The God of Alchemy was stunned for a moment and said in surprise: "Why do you suddenly say this?"

Amber Xiu did not explain, but just continued to ask: "Is it okay?"

The God of Alchemy nodded and said: "Of course, but your contract with Hell has not been completed yet. After becoming a god, you can no longer conduct such a large number of soul transactions. Gods are not allowed to send a large number of souls to Hell privately."

When the Withered Rose heard this, she did not care about the politeness and said excitedly: "Why is there such a restriction?"

The God of Alchemy looked at the Withered Rose in confusion. He also felt that the atmosphere was a little wrong, but he still explained: "According to the rules of Hell, the souls of evil people fall into Hell randomly, unless they have signed a contract with a devil before death. This is the rule set by Asmodeus, the Lord of Hell, to ensure the basic balance of the Nine Hells.

"No god can trade souls with any devil in Hell. You can occasionally send a few people to Hell, but it is impossible for soul coins like yours worth tens of millions. Asmodeus will never allow other gods to affect the balance of power in Hell. Otherwise, those powerful gods would just send a large number of heroes to hell to cause trouble, and Asmodeus would be exhausted to death. "

The Nine Hells belong to a very special plane. In theory, all the villains in the heavens and the world must go to hell to be punished. This is the rule set by Io when he created the world, but the devils in hell usually do nothing and offend too many enemies.

As a hell that punishes villains, the managers are more evil than each other.

As the lord of hell, Asmodeus usually not only has to let his enemy's subordinates rebel, but also has to beware of those gods with excessive sense of justice entering hell to cause trouble.

Isn't Zariel the best example? At that time, the battle was so fierce that he forced Him, the lord of hell, to The situation was settled only after the Lord personally intervened. So Asmodeus isolated the transaction between the gods and hell. Who knows whether the souls you sent to hell are real sinners or heroic spirits sent to cause trouble?

You stuffed all of them into the territory of a certain hell lord. Do you want to starve this devil to death or make this devil rebel?

This law is very strict, and few gods dare to violate it.

Amber Xiu summarized: "So, what you mean is that I need to pay the soul coins owed to the hell lord first, because the transaction between mortals and gods is not restricted by the laws of hell. But if I become your subordinate god, I can no longer trade, and I will violate the contract, and the devil will come to me."

The God of Alchemy nodded and said to Amber Xiu: "What problem did you encounter? Weren't you waiting for the goddess of wealth before?"

Amber Xiu shook his head and said: "Nothing, just asking, sorry to bother the teacher. "

The God of Alchemy glanced at Amber Xiu, but in the end he said nothing and slowly disappeared into the magic mirror.

When the Withered Rose saw the God of Alchemy leaving, she hurriedly said, "Isn't there still a chance? As long as you complete this contract, even if you can't complete it, you can hide in the Kingdom of the God of Alchemy..."

Amber Xiu looked at the excited Withered Rose and shook his head and said, "Things are not that simple. Even if I enter the teacher's Kingdom of God now, the result is that the devils will come to my door and take me to hell. No matter how I avoid it, the result is the same. There will always be a moment of accident that will cause me to be caught.

"The other way is the same. Even if I start to make soul coins in my private space now, the materials will suddenly not be enough and I will need to buy them again. Then there will be accidents during the transportation of materials. Or after the soul coins are made, they will be snatched away by a demon lord during the transaction... No matter what kind of accident it is, it doesn't matter, because the result is already determined."

Dead Rose seemed unwilling to believe it, muttering to herself: "There must be another way. If it doesn't work, what's the use of the scroll sent by Selwin? Why did he give this thing to you?"

"In order to let me delay time. I I can use this scroll to make the whole world forget my existence. After a period of chaos, I can dig a hole and bury myself. Maybe when I wake up thousands of years later, everything that happened now will disappear, and everything that should have put me to death will be worn away by time. "

Dead Rose quickly grabbed Amber's hand and said, "Then do it. In the Underdark, we can find many suitable places to live in seclusion. I have been waiting for many years, and I don't mind waiting for hundreds of years for Ryan to die. "

Amber looked at the dead rose unexpectedly. This sounds not easy. Can she let go of her hatred for Ryan?

But unfortunately, Amber could only continue to shake his head.

"There is no point in doing that. As a prophecy mage, you can't praise the favor of the goddess of fate when it is good for you, and choose not to believe it when fate arranges you to be unlucky. Even if I erase my name, I will go to the end of my life in a corner where no one knows. "

Dead Rose can't understand why Amber has been sure of her own death, but she doesn't want to give up.

"If you can't defy fate, then I will help you. I will lock you up and make sure no one can kill you! "
