This Lich Needs More Money

Many people in Hell have heard of Amber's name, and I don't know how many devils are asking about him.

They all want to know how a sinner who has already gone to Hell can still escape the punishment of the Grand Duke of Hell. He even got the recognition of Zariel and obtained a status far higher than that of ordinary devils.

This is no longer a fraud. This is completely brainwashing and hypnosis, right?

Just like what the Lord of Hell did to Zariel... Could it be that the Lord of Hell arranged a password in Zariel's soul, and this lich knew this password, so he could completely control Zariel's mind?

Some people say that Zariel just fell in love with this lich and licked his bones every day. Only love can make people blind, and the fallen angels are the same.

Conspiracy theories began to spread, and thousands of different versions fermented in just a few days. This is where all the malice gathers, and rumors can also be made in countless ways.

However, these rumors cannot shake Zariel's position in Hell, nor can they affect this fallen angel. It's just a rumor. There are so many devils cursing Zariel for a bad death every day, and Zariel is tired of hearing it.

What really makes Zariel unhappy is Amber Shu. This lich seems to be busy with the bank's affairs, and all affairs are proceeding in an orderly manner, but Zariel feels more and more that he is being sidelined.

The bank's capital contribution ratio has not changed, and Zariel is still a major shareholder, but he helplessly finds that he cannot intervene in the bank's affairs. It's not that he is not allowed to intervene, but Zariel was scolded by Mammon for a few more words, because those so-called suggestions will greatly increase their costs.

Mammon said bluntly: "If you don't understand, shut up, and go to the Blood River battlefield to kill more demons when you have time! Isn't it better to lie down and collect money? You have to make trouble!"

Zariel was almost angry and dueled with Mammon.

But Zariel had to admit the fact that he really didn't understand economics and didn't have such talents under him.

Therefore, Zariel set his sights on Amber Shu.

After all, this is also the soul of a sinner who has fallen into His hands. Under the influence of the laws of hell, Amber Xiu should be His slave, and his life and death should be controlled by Zariel.

The Grand Duke of Hell did not believe what Amber Xiu said, what is here and not here, what special superposition state... Most of these are nonsense made up by the lich himself. Therefore, Zariel recently left the bank's affairs alone, turned out all the secret books of hell he found, and carefully studied the laws and regulations related to hell, vowing to hold Amber Xiu firmly in his hands. At that time, the bank will be truly controlled by Him.

Amber Xiu is not unaware, but he is not worried at all.

Because Zariel only knows hell, but he does not understand alchemy at all.

The magic mirror is a very special alchemical product, which is a divine artifact created by the God of Alchemy after he broke and re-established himself and was promoted to the middle power.

At the beginning, it was indeed as simple as communication, but the interesting thing about alchemy is that the concept itself is constantly evolving. The internal core of the magic mirror is also upgraded again and again. In addition, Amberxiu and the God of Alchemy are inseparable. What Amberxiu knows, the God of Alchemy also knows.

The most valuable of them is undoubtedly all the knowledge of the dark magic network.

Amberxiu did not hesitate to share this part of knowledge with the God of Alchemy, so the new generation of magic mirrors already have the special effects of the magic network, but it has nothing to do with casting magic, so the mysterious magic goddess did not express dissatisfaction.

Amberxiu can now be understood as a ghost hiding inside the "pseudo magic network", with only a strand of hair left in hell.

Zariel wants to catch him out. He must first understand the magic network, then understand alchemy, and finally the most difficult and critical step - destroy the magic mirror body in the God of Alchemy's kingdom, and completely block Amberxiu's ability to move freely in the network.

Unfortunately, the God of Alchemy is not the Goddess of Kuo Tao Fishmen, and He is not mentally ill, so how could he leave his kingdom of God.

So Amberxiu was not worried about what Zariel could do to him, and he did not take the little trouble in hell to heart. Now he had more important things to do.

In the depths of the dark area, the withered rose changed into her original black dress, stood in front of the magic mirror, and quietly looked at Amberxiu inside.

Her expression was very calm, as if the person in the mirror was not the one she had been thinking about day and night, but just an old friend she had not seen for a long time.

Amberxiu said with emotion: "Your feelings are gradually fading. Do you also feel that you have lost the ability to think in the past few days, and the time you are in a daze is getting longer and longer, and you can't feel the change of time?"

The withered rose nodded and said calmly: "It's almost the same, but this feeling is not bad."

Amberxiu was silent. The soul of the withered rose was closing itself, just like the state when he just became a ghost. Because he lost all desires, even the ability to think was gradually giving up.

This is also the reason why Amberxiu tried to let Melina conceal the truth about his resurrection, but unfortunately, Melina obviously couldn't hide the truth, and she was discovered by the withered rose in a few days.

After confirming that Amberxiu had been successfully resurrected, the surprise lasted less than half a day before the Withered Rose began to enter the "dying" state. It was only slightly better than the situation of Amberxiu, the spirit of the instrument. The Withered Rose might be able to hold on for ten days or half a month, and then it would fall into complete silence and become a motionless corpse, or a zombie with no thinking ability at all.

Decadence Rose said to Amber Xiu: "This is the fate of the undead. They can never be satisfied, so they will always suffer. Once their desires are satisfied, the undead will completely die. Anyway, I am very glad that my last desire comes from you. Now that I see you have been resurrected, I have no regrets."

Decadence Rose once only wanted to destroy Ryan, but she was powerless in countless years and could only fail again and again. It was Amber Xiu who helped her fulfill this wish. At that time, Amber Xiu was deeply bound to the wish of destroying Ryan.

When the Ryan royal family was completely destroyed and the Ryan Empire was crumbling, Decadence Rose found that she had unconsciously placed Amber Xiu in an equally important position.

Next, her wish became to resurrect Amber Xiu.

Decadence Rose didn't know whether this kind of wish transformation was special or whether Lich could play like this, but she was satisfied now. The unprecedented satisfaction filled her soul. The fatigue caused by sticking to now suddenly surged up, making Decadence Rose just want to sleep well and think about nothing.

Amber looked at the smiling withered rose and said firmly: "But this is not true satisfaction. It is just avoiding other possibilities, placing the soul on a fragile support, and then breaking it into pieces after removing the support, and then calling it the end of art. Ms. Rose, we are all legends, and our lives should not end like this."

The withered rose replied calmly: "Although I feel good now, I am willing to believe your judgment. You are always right... But what are you going to do? You want to stop an undead from going to the end. Do you know what this means?"

Amber smiled and said: "It means that I have created a miracle again."

Amber reached out and took off the clown mask on his face and sent it out of the magic mirror.

"Put on this mask, Ms. Rose, it can delay you for a few days, enough for me to think of a solution to the problem!"

Why do so many people know that the undead are immortal, but in the end they still choose the youth potion that costs hundreds of thousands of gold coins a bottle, and would rather drink it until they are bankrupt and drink it until their drug resistance is full than transform into undead?

It's not just because the undead are ugly, but because the reason why the living beings want to extend their lives is not just to extend their lives, but also to extend the feelings of life.

But the undead lack feelings.

The undead will not feel pain, will not be tired, and in most cases will not be angry, happy, or sad. They act like machines, following their instincts coldly.

In the eyes of many people, this is not called survival at all. It is just a notebook with no missing memories. When the wind blows, it turns a few pages and looks like it moves by itself.

Liches are relatively advanced and can choose their own obsessions, leaving only a little emotional color. Other low-level undead only have two instincts left, eating and sleeping, and almost no thinking ability.

The members of the Mourning Poetry Society are not ordinary undead. Each of them has extraordinary characteristics, so they appear much more vivid. Ask a necromancer in the wilderness. The sound of bones rubbing in the castle is the most lively time for the undead.

But no matter how special it is, when the wish is fulfilled, it is equivalent to removing the only pillar supporting the soul.

Unless a new pillar can be replaced for the withered rose.

So, Amber took off his clown mask and handed it to Withered Rose.

The undead queen, who had no desires, took the clown mask, was silent for a moment, and said to Amber: "If you give me this thing, what will you do?"

Amber smiled and said: "I'll just lend it to you for a try. It's okay. My good memories are enough for me to last for a few days. I will find a way to save you during this time?"

Withered Rose stroked the delicate mask and asked again: "If this is my fate, will you still save me?"

This question made Amber stunned for a moment.

Memories rippled. One night many years ago, there was also a girl crying under the starry sky. She asked Amber: "You said you didn't save him because fate had already been determined. What if you saw my death instead of the death of others?"

How did I answer at that time?

It seems that there was no answer.

At that time, Amber watched his teammates die with his own eyes and did not rescue them, because he knew he could do nothing.

And because of this incident, the druid girl finally left the team and never appeared in Amber's life again. Until many years later, she heard her name again in the Green Dream Forest, but by then her great-grandchildren were already old.

After many years, Amber Xiu lived from birth to death again.

This time, he could finally answer seriously.

"Fuck fate! I will save you, and I can save you, just like I saved myself!"

Amber Xiu answered decisively.

Sure enough, every prophecy mage is a scumbag. No matter how many years, he will eventually abandon the goddess of fate.

This time, Amber Xiu just didn't agree. Even if he saw the prophecy about the future, he would do everything he could to save the withered rose, just like the young self.

The withered rose looked at Amber Xiu's excited expression and tried to put the clown mask on her face.

"How does it feel?" Amber Xiu asked hurriedly.

The withered rose hesitated for a while, then said: "No feeling."

"How could it be?" Amber was surprised. This was Oghma's artifact, which allowed him, a spirit of the artifact, to truly feel all kinds of emotions.

Withered Rose took off the mask, handed it back to Amber, and said, "It seems that Oghma did not allow you to lend the mask to others casually."

Amber put the mask back on unhappily, and said, "Sharing knowledge with others will increase knowledge, and the same goes for feelings. Oghma is really stingy."

Only Amber could say such blasphemous words casually, but the clown mask did not show any expression. When it was put on Amber's face again, it faithfully restored Amber's sense of freshness.

"Don't worry, I have other ways."

Amber quickly got a little gray powder, which was the dream powder he had just obtained from Leila, which could enter the synesthesia dream anytime and anywhere.

In the dream, even the undead would have the feeling of being alive.

Amber wanted to let the withered rose come alive first, and then consider how to completely solve this problem.

"When you are dreaming, I need to check your soul. Do you mind?" Amber asked.

Withered Rose said nothing, but showed her attitude with her actions. The Queen of the Dead grabbed the dream powder and sucked it into her mouth, and quickly entered the dream.

Amber carried the Withered Rose to the bed, and then separated a thin thread from the magic mirror and connected it to the center of the eyebrows of the Withered Rose.

This is the perception line that Amber extracted from his soul. It looks scary, but for Amber now, it is just something like hair. He no longer needs to chop his soul into pieces and then draw silk.

After all, when he was reborn, the two Dukes of Hell gave him millions of soul coins. Amber's soul strength can no longer be estimated in a normal way. It is not difficult for him to separate a thread with his mind.

Withered Rose also trusts Amber very much. Her soul has no defenses, allowing Amber to spy on all her memories without leaving any secrets.

If the death of the undead is due to the loss of wishes, and Amberxiu cannot restore the human senses of the withered rose forever, then can the wish be forcibly implanted into it by modifying the soul of the withered rose?

Amberxiu soon found the answer.

Indeed, it can.

The soul of the withered rose still retains a lot of memories related to Ryan. As long as she modifies it casually and transforms her hatred for the Ryan royal family into hatred for all Ryan people, she can restore the withered rose to its original appearance.

Or, modify the wish she just fulfilled.

The withered rose only wants to resurrect Amberxiu. Now that Amberxiu is alive, the wish has been fulfilled.

But what if this wish is not just resurrection, but also something else?

For example...

Amberxiu thought about it, and the thread of the soul began to modify the soul of the withered rose.

Weave the soul, weave the dream, and let her live again!
