This Lich Needs More Money

When James Watson mentioned the Lord of the Dawn, Amber Xiu always felt uneasy.

After all, in the past few hundred years, whether he was a human or a lich, the Lord of the Dawn had little to do with him.

Mages have a certain contempt for the gods. Even when facing the goddess of magic, there are many who think "I can replace her".

Not to mention the lich, the holy light is poisonous and cannot be touched.

Although Amber Xiu knew that the Lord of the Dawn would definitely give him something good, he had never tried to contact him actively.

Amber Xiu said to himself: "All wishes can be fulfilled? It seems that you know me very well."

James Watson said firmly: "The holy light always guides the right direction. Maybe you think you want a lot of things, just because you don't know what you want at all."

"Don't do such mysterious things. Whether the Lord of the Dawn will satisfy my wishes or not, you must do this for me."

Amber Xiu will not be bypassed by a few words from this old man. It is impossible to cut corners.

James Watson saw that Amber was unmoved by his soft words and hard tactics, so he could only arrange the staff while cursing in a low voice.

Heki Stone took the genealogy of the Royal Family of Ryan and called out the names of people one by one.

"Countess Beanifonida... What, dead? What about Countess Miriam? Dead too? Ilyasfir must be alive, right? Bring her here, I will personally train her."

"What do you mean by training? Her Majesty the Queen is going to attend such a grand occasion, and every piece of clothing and accessories on her body, from big to small, different accessories, different levels of noble ladies will help put them on. This is your own tradition in Ryan, don't you know the rules? Also, find some young and beautiful nuns, twins are better!"

This dwarf vampire has begun to bully the people of Ryan and command them around.

Amber's consciousness left Ryan and came to the dark area.

Withered Rose was lazily lying on the bed reading a novel. Now that she had left the synesthesia dream, the only hobby of this Queen of the Dead was reading novels. She read all the knight novels that she was not allowed to read when she was a child.

Amber Xiu appeared on the magic mirror beside the bed and told Withered Rose about his experience in Ryan.

The Queen of the Dead closed the novel in confusion and asked, "It's really strange that the Lord of the Dawn actually agreed to your doing this in Ryan."

"Yes, the behavior of this god is very abnormal. Under normal circumstances, He should issue oracles every day to reunite Ryan. This is the belief of tens of millions of people, and a large part of them are fanatics. But He just looked at it like he had given up on Ryan, which is not in line with the habit of a believer in God."

Decadence Rose shook her head and said, "No, that's not what I'm talking about. I'm talking about He being too indulgent to you. Even if you have provided a lot of help to Ryan, giving you a little benefit is enough. Now the Lord of the Dawn is not just giving you a reward, it's more like... more like treating Arthur Ryan."

"I'm not a saint."

Amber Xiu is very self-aware, and he is still too far away from Arthur Ryan.

Withered Rose smiled and said, "But you can become a saint. You have saved the world and done so many good things. Apart from Arthur Ryan, there has been no one greater than you in the past thousand years."

Amber Xiu didn't know how to refute. A capitalist was said to be a good person, which could only mean that this world was too fucked up.

"So, you mean, I should take the initiative to talk to the Lord of Dawn?"

Withered Rose nodded and said, "Of course, what's the loss? Since the gods have already extended an invitation, we mortals can't be too arrogant."

Amber Xiu was very moved by the suggestion of Withered Rose.

It is indeed time to talk to this powerful god, but we need to consider what method to use.

Amber Xiu can now contact the God of Alchemy at any time. With the help of this god's connections, Amber Xiu can get in touch with the Lord of Knowledge Ogma. Finding the Lord of Dawn through the God of Alchemy is one way, and with this God of Alchemy as a middleman, it is also a way for Amber Xiu to "raise his own status".

But Amber thought about it for a long time and gave up the idea.

Just like what the Withered Rose said, the Lord of Dawn has given face, and it would be too arrogant to think of raising your own status.

It's like someone has already sent the invitation to your door, and you can go to the banquet by taking it, but you have to find a big guy to send a new invitation. What does that mean?

It was originally a good thing, but it is easy to turn into a bad thing.

Amber thought again and again, and still chose the simplest way-praying to the Lord of Dawn.

Arthur Ryan taught Amber how to pray to this god who represents hope, and those prayers were not forgotten because of the broken soul. It's just that the last time he recited the prayer, Amber's body was as painful as being burned by hellfire.

Even a little bit of holy light is a fatal torture for the lich.

What's the difference now?

Amber's consciousness entered the depths of the magic mirror and began to pray to the Lord of Dawn according to his memory. At first, he just recited the prayer stiffly, but as Amber focused his attention, an indescribable feeling blossomed from the depths of his soul.

It was a holy flower, a white and golden rose, blooming in Amber's mind.

The warm feeling instantly spread throughout his body, making Amber feel a peace he had never felt before.

This is the Holy Light responding to Amber Xiu's prayer, constantly releasing gentle power to repair everything for Amber Xiu. If you are an ordinary mortal, after bathing in this layer of holy light, you will be immune to all diseases and your aging rate will be slower.

But Amber Xiu does not have a real body now, so the power of the Holy Light completely affects his soul.

Tranquility, comfort...all distracting thoughts are driven away by the holy light, leaving only the purest comfort and satisfaction. Originally, Amber Xiu's memory contained far more pain than happiness. After all, he had spent half his life wandering around and experiencing life and death. What could be considered a happy time was too short.

But at this moment, these painful memories came to mind, but they did not make Amber Xiu feel any pain. Instead, they gradually blurred under the soothing touch of the Holy Light, as if he was relieved.

Even though Amber Xiu was in tears at this moment, he felt that the burden on his soul was getting lighter and lighter, as if he had really let go of the past.

Originally, this was a very good experience. If he could fully accept the baptism of the Holy Light, Amberxiu might be able to bid farewell to the past completely and truly let go... However, as the pictures faded away, Amberxiu suddenly frowned. , woke up like a nightmare.

When he opened his eyes again, he felt like there was a breath in his chest that he couldn't let out no matter what.

The painful memory that should have faded became clear again, and then turned into a tsunami and drowned him.

At this moment, he relived the past dozens of times.

The pressure that hit his face made Amberxiu curl up on the ground in pain, and he didn't get up again until he let out a shrill wail.

Amber Xiu wiped away the tears on his face and looked around with red eyes.

This is no longer the space inside the magic mirror, but a beautiful garden. There are crystal-like little angels flying around in the distance, and children chasing and playing in the distance. The sky here is a refreshing blue, and even the shapes of the clouds are so blurry and dreamy, as if they can turn into your favorite look. .

Even though he has never been to this place, Amber Xiu also knows where this is, the divine kingdom of the Lord of the Dawn - Paradise.

When people embark on a new journey, make a contract, or establish a political or romantic relationship, they often pray for the blessing of the Lord of the Morning, because this god represents new beginnings and hope. The Kingdom of the Lord of the Dawn is full of vitality everywhere, as if there is no need to worry about the future here, and a new future can be welcomed every day.

It's just that Amber Xiu's ferocious look with red eyes was a bit out of place here. He could only take a few deep breaths and try to calm himself down before taking two steps and entering the white pavilion in front of him.

The handsome and young powerful god was sitting in the pavilion, waiting for Amber Xiu's arrival.

Amberxiu walked up to this extremely holy god and bowed respectfully.

"Dear Lord of the Dawn, I am deeply honored to come to your kingdom of God."

The Lord of the Dawn said calmly: "You don't respect me and you don't feel honored. If you are unable to tell the truth because you are used to hypocrisy, I can forgive you for deceiving me. But I am very curious as to why you rejected me. ’s blessing.”

Just now, the Lord of the Dawn used his own power to heal Amber Xiu's mental trauma.

This is an entirely good intention and does not involve any mind control effects.

Just like seeing a tired traveler covered with scars, the Lord of the Morning just wanted to give Amber the strength to start the next journey again.

But Ambrose refused.

When he was about to completely calm down, Amberxiu expelled the power of the Holy Light in an extremely violent way, which caused the sad past to come back and caused even greater mental trauma to him.

The Lord of the Dawn could not understand, but in order to prevent Amberxiu's soul from dying under the impact of the two forces, the Lord of the Dawn could only withdraw his divine power and let Amberxiu's soul fall into the quagmire again.

Amberxiu rubbed his still painful head, and then said: "Experiences bring memories, and memories make me who I am now. Dear God, maybe your power can really make me calm, but I have forgotten these pains. , the character that I have endured so much hardship has changed. I may become as energetic as when I was young, but I will also be full of impulsiveness. I will recklessly move towards another future instead of following the current one. The plan continues."

The Lord of the Dawn shook his head and said, "This may not be a bad thing."

Amber Xiu said helplessly: "There's nothing I can do about it. So many friends and partners died in front of me, so many mistakes and frustrations remain in my memory. They are no longer here, and I just let it go... They will hate me, this is a betrayal."

Let’s not talk about Mr. Fortune’s death. Amberxiu said he didn’t mind, but the scene where he sacrificed himself was so clear, and the feeling of powerlessness controlled by fate was so vivid.

Let it go, forget about it, and move on?

Then Amberxiu felt that a piece of his life was forever missing. If even this feeling was diluted, would there be any trace of Mr. Fortune's existence in this world?

The joys and sorrows he has witnessed in these hundreds of years are all the same, and they often make Amberxiu breathless, but this is not a reason to forget.

The Lord of the Dawn was silent for a moment and said with emotion: "Your soul is full of old shackles, and it is not easy to stay rational. From this aspect, you and Arthur are the same kind of people. I have sent him three invitations to let He entered my Kingdom of God, but was rejected by him. Every time he faced a desperate situation, I extended my hand to him, hoping to guide him to move forward, but every time he chose to leave himself in the past. "

For the first time, Arthur Lane raised the flag of rebellion and appeared as a hero to save the world. The Lord of the Dawn had already decided to let Arthur enter his kingdom of God. But Arthur refused, and instead used himself as a bet, hoping that the Lord of the Morning and the dragon gods would no longer influence the situation of the mortal war.

For the second time, Arthur Lane's soul was tainted by the dragon's blood curse. The Lord of the Dawn once again issued an invitation. Even if he lost the bet, He hoped that Arthur could enter Elysium, even if the Lane Empire would decline as a result. No matter what. Obviously, Arthur Lane once again rejected the invitation of the Lord of the Dawn, died completely in extreme pain, and used his final agreement to kill the resurrected dragon.

For the third time, Arthur Lane's heroic spirit was promoted to a god through the magic of Karthusden. The door to Elysium has been opened to him, but Arthur Lane's heroic spirit is no different from himself, and he gave up his future without any hesitation. , used all his strength to kill the new dragon, and himself died again.

Each time, Arthur Lane left himself in the past in exchange for someone else's future.

Although Amberxiu didn't know the details, he could make a rough guess, so he said humbly: "That's too flattering for me. People like me are just trying to survive, and I really can't compare with Arthur."

Amberxiu said modestly, and then changed the topic to other things.

"Dear Lord of the Dawn, I'm not here to pray to forget the past. I just want to ask if you have any other benefits for me."

Regardless of whether his soul is extremely vicissitudes of life, Amberxiu just wants to do something practical now. Forget about spiritual comfort, it would be better to give him a few artifacts.

The Lord of the Morning seemed to have guessed that the Amber Order would be so straightforward, and did not mean to be angry at all. He simply said: "I know what you want, but do you know what you want? Boasting that Haikou will end Bloody battle, is this what you really want?"

Amberxiu said unexpectedly: "Are you willing to help me end the bloody war?"

"If this is your request, I can help you. But are you sure this is what you want?"

The Lord of the Dawn's answer was so straightforward that it shocked Amber Xiu. This was a major matter concerning the entire hell. How could the Lord of the Dawn be ready to intervene without even thinking about it?

Wait, something is wrong, this god seems to have something in his words.

Since everyone was so straightforward, Amber Xiu also said straight to the point: "Don't play riddles with a mortal like me who is not smart enough or aware enough. Great Lord of the Dawn, please tell me what you really want to say. "

The Lord of the Dawn smiled slightly and said to Amber Xiu: "Then let us count the good deeds you have done."

Amber Xiu was agitated, fearing that this good thing might be a pun, but looking at the Lord of the Dawn's expression, it seemed that he didn't mean to be sarcastic.

"First of all, after you transformed into a lich, you did not kill innocent people for any excuse. Even if Allen took the initiative to attack you, you still gave him a chance to live.

“Your restraint is commendable.

“Secondly, the hidden dangers of the Lane Empire were discovered in advance, and they have been working hard to eliminate the hidden dangers and work to avoid a world war, which indirectly alleviated the sins Lane committed.

“Your kindness is worthy of praise.

"In the end, you cooperated with Arthur to solve the biggest threat and completely win the bet against the dragon gods for me.

“Your wisdom is worthy of praise.

"And now, he is working for the Lane Empire that is on the verge of collapse, solving the surrounding threats, and promoting the transfer of Lane's power, without even gaining any benefits for himself.

"Your generosity deserves recognition."

The Lord of the Dawn stretched out his right hand, and a bright holy light appeared in his palm, turning into a scroll full of holy light. The Lord of the Dawn handed this impressive scroll to Amber Xiu, and then said: "I will not waste time on other insignificant rewards. This is what you deserve, and it is what I received from the dragon gods. The bet won is a resurrection scroll blessed by the god Io.

"As long as you write the name, you can perfectly resurrect anyone from any timeline. Regardless of whether his fate has been determined or not, you can save him, but there is only one chance."
