This Lich Needs More Money

Chapter 608: Awakening

Killing a person with a wish spell is the most common plot in stories passed down through the ages.

And this is also the most reliable wish that the wishing technique can realize.

Many people wish to gain great power or other things, but they are often played by the laws of the world, giving you some sequelae and so on, which fall on themselves, and they cannot throw it away or regret it.

But death is a very simple wish. As long as you clearly state that you want the other person to die immediately, and at most add some details of death, there will probably be no accidents.

The Laws of the World will also be happy to help you solve this problem.

After all, you hate him so much that you want to use the prayer spell to kill him. After paying such a high price, you should get corresponding rewards.

But killing the dwarf king was a choice that really puzzled Gustavo Flynn.

What grudge does this man have against the dwarf king? Why did he want to kill the dwarf king before the meeting of the nations?

"Can you know the reason?" Gustavo Flynn asked.

Seth Uri smiled and said: "Which reason are you talking about? Donald's reason for cooperating with me, or my reason for killing the Dwarf King?"

"If possible, I would like to know everything, including your identity, Your Excellency."

Gustavo Flynn is really curious. Who is this dwarf who has appeared out of nowhere and is proficient in natural magic? Is he a descendant of the royal family living abroad? Is it a cliche prince's revenge story?

Seth Uri was silent for a moment, and then said: "That's a long story. Have you ever heard of the mountain dwarves?"

Gustavo Flynn recalled it, and then said: "It seems to be a branch of ancient dwarves? But I heard that it has been extinct for a long time."

Seth Yuri shook his head and said: "It is not considered extinct. I am a descendant of the Alpine clan. We have just integrated into the desert dwarves, but we have always maintained our own heritage and culture. Although on the surface we have no sense of existence, But we are more religious than the desert dwarves.

"We, the Mountain Clan, are the proud sons of Moradin, and that has never changed."

"When the dwarf kingdom was forced by Ryan to open its borders and introduce immigrants from other races, my ancestors once fiercely opposed it, but they were bloody suppressed by the desert dwarves at that time, which resulted in the almost complete disappearance of our mountain clan. Although we failed, But we also understand that this is a stop-gap measure for the dwarf kingdom. The threat from Ryan is indeed very great. Since our resistance has failed, we can only accept this fact and continue to hide in the kingdom and live a life of survival.

"It's just that we didn't expect that the fall of the dwarf kingdom began with the absorption of foreign races. Our faith has become impure, and some dwarves have even begun to believe in the gods of other races. Moradin, how dare they do such blasphemous behavior? ?”

Seth Uri had an angry expression on his face, and it seemed that he was indeed full of hatred for these dwarves. Faith is a very special thing. People who don't value faith can dismiss it like Amber Xiu, while people who value faith will often give everything they have for the gods.

Seth Uri could not accept that the faith of the dwarf kingdom was contaminated, but he was too weak, and the desert kingdom was too weak.

Since his birth, the desert dwarf has looked half-dead. Seth Uri had thought about becoming a virus antibody and purging the kingdom of poison, but he was also afraid that with just a little effort, the kingdom would fall into civil strife and then be completely destroyed.

This is not arrogance. Seth Yuri is the leader of this generation of mountain clans. Even if their clan has been hidden for many years, they can still raise an army and give the kingdom a blow at the critical moment, which is enough to penetrate into this old age. The heart of the kingdom.

But Seth Uri did not want to destroy the kingdom, he just wanted to get the kingdom back on track, so when the dwarf kingdom was driven out of the desert by Ryan, Seth Uri remained stationary.

He was waiting for the opportunity, hoping for a turning point, hoping to gain the highest power of the dwarf kingdom while ensuring the survival of the kingdom.

But things changed too quickly. The critically ill Dwarf King suddenly recovered and took over the Alchemy City without any blood, as if he was reborn from the ashes.

Seth Uri was happy but unwilling, but he could only continue to lurk.

"Originally, I thought that I was still young and would still have opportunities in the future. But I didn't expect that just when I thought that the dwarf kingdom would be on the right track, I suddenly sensed Moradin's oracle." Seth Uri squeezed his fingers tightly. He raised his fist and suppressed his anger and said: "Today's dwarf king has turned into a vampire! In order to survive, he not only abandoned his faith, but also degenerated into an undead creature! This is a shame, this is the biggest problem for us dwarves. Shame!”

Gustavo Flynn raised his eyelids, but did not show too much surprise.

Seth Uri took a deep breath and quickly regained his composure. Seeing Gustavo Flynn's performance, he asked: "It seems that Master Flynn has known about this for a long time."

Gustavo Flynn replied: "I can guess some. I have seen the Dwarf King several times. Many details of the vampire are easy to distinguish. But I have no evidence, I just have suspicions."

Most of those who can become legendary alchemists have come into contact with the two alchemical materials "Vampire Ashes" and "Vampire's Fangs". This is one of the necessary materials for invisible potions and is also the basic material for many high-level alchemical potions.

Therefore, Gustavo Flynn also has a deep research on the habits of vampires. But he didn't lie either. It was all speculation before. He didn't have any evidence and never tried to verify it.

Whether the Dwarf King is a vampire or not has no effect on him.

Seth Uri nodded and understood Gustavo Flynn's position, so he continued: "This is exactly why I want to kill him. We cannot let a vampire attend this meeting on behalf of the dwarves."

"Is it because of this?" Gustavo Flynn was surprised and even a little incomprehensible.

"This is not an understatement." Seth Yuri said very seriously: "Imagine that the Queen of the Undead replaced Ryan at the meeting of the nations, and decided Ryan's future fate as an undead. The people of Ryan would What do you think?"

"That's different, Ryan and the undead..." Gustavo Flynn didn't know how to describe it for a while. He didn't have as good an eloquence as Amber Xiu. He just knew that this matter was unreasonable, but it was difficult to use the most precise words. Summarize your feelings.

But Seth Urie spoke for him.

"Ryan's faith is so devout. The Holy Light and the undead are incompatible, so the Queen of the Undead cannot represent Ryan. This is more serious for Ryan than the destruction of the country. Is that what you mean?"

Gustavo Flynn nodded, that's what he meant, Ryan and the undead have countless mortal enemies.

"This is exactly why I have to let him die. Once upon a time, our dwarves' faith was so pure and did not allow any blasphemy from foreign races."

Gustavo Flynn could not sympathize with Seth Uri's sentiments. He had not experienced the most glorious era of the dwarves, and he did not know how noble their so-called beliefs were. However, after the dwarf kingdom integrated multiple races, it is true that large-scale sacrifices to the dwarf gods rarely occurred.

In this way, Seth Yuri's reason for killing the dwarf king is justified.

"But your plan should be more than just killing people. If the Dwarf King dies, the meeting of the nations will not be postponed, but it is impossible for you to take his place and become the new Dwarf King in one day."

"Then don't participate, or let them send any dwarf as a representative. I just want to purify our faith, and I don't have to become the new dwarf king. As long as the dwarves sent out are dwarves, the rest will be fine. unimportant."

Seth Uri's operation is very like a fanatic, regardless of his own interests, just to please the gods.

Gustavo Flynn asked again: "Then why would Goblin Bank cooperate with you?"

"Because the dwarf king is too greedy and too timid. As you said, it is difficult to completely hide the habits of vampires. President Donald has met the dwarf king many times, and he is better than you. He discovered the clues early. Originally, he didn't care whether the dwarf king turned into a vampire, but the dwarf king couldn't accept it.

"Moreover, he has long been attracted by the massive wealth stored in the goblin bank. After the dwarves withdrew from the desert, there was no stable source of gold. The dwarf king was always thinking about how to make money from all aspects to maintain their luxury. . He has made it clear more than once that the Goblin Bank will donate a large amount of gold. If this squeeze continues, the Goblin Bank will not be able to sustain it."

In the final analysis, it is still a battle of interests.

Seth Uri is for the benefit of the gods, the goblins are for their own wallets, and Gustavo Flynn is for his own power and status.

When the topic reached this point, everything that needed to be known was known. Gustavo Flynn agreed without much hesitation.

"Okay, I agree to your invitation. If it is just a one-time wish, I am confident that it will be completed. But I do not agree with sending just anyone to attend the meeting of nations. This is a major matter related to the interests of the dwarf kingdom for hundreds of years. If it is just a casual If one person is sent to participate, the interests of the Alchemy Association will also be affected."

Seth Uri frowned and explained: "When everything settles down, I will try my best to compensate you."

Gustavo Flynn shook his head and said: "Don't tell me how you will compensate after you become the dwarf king. This makes no sense. Compared with the benefits of dividing the entire world, the compensation provided by the dwarf kingdom is really not worth it. Mention. Mr. Yuri, you may be a genius and can master all kinds of magic and alchemy, but I believe you have never seen the real gold and silver.

"That is a huge amount of wealth that has been gathered from the fate and dreams of countless people. The tax paid by the Alchemy Association accounts for one-fifth of the total tax revenue of the Dwarf Kingdom, and this proportion is still expanding. You can't understand how huge this is. A number, maybe the goblin president didn't tell you in detail, the alchemist association's monthly alchemist welfare expenditure alone is so huge that it can bankrupt the current dwarf king.

"What the conference of nations decides is whether the Alchemy Association can expand its market and make more money. If the negotiations are successful according to the best estimates, the wealth generated by the Alchemy Association alone will surpass the current dwarf kingdom. And if it were changed A dwarf who didn't understand anything went to negotiate and failed in the end... Is Your Excellency Yuri going to compensate me for the entire kingdom?"

Gustavo Flynn’s words really surprised Seth Uri.

He knew that the Alchemy Association had a great influence. The reason why the Dwarf Kingdom showed signs of economic recovery was because of the existence of the Alchemy Association. The foundation left behind by the Alchemy City was too strong for them to eat in one bite.

But what the specific number is, it is really difficult for outsiders to have an intuitive feeling.

He did not doubt the authenticity of this ratio, because he could find out by asking anyone from the Goblin Bank that no one would lie about such things. Now the question was, how could he satisfy Gustavo Flynn?

Seth Yuri was not a fool either, and he quickly understood what the alchemist meant, so he asked sincerely, "Master Flynn, since you asked this question, I believe you have made a decision in your mind, so why not tell me directly."

As long as it does not blaspheme the beliefs of the dwarves, everything can be discussed.

Money was not a consideration for Seth Yuri at all, not to mention the alchemy market.

"I just learned about the plan you mentioned, and I have a vague idea in my mind... How about this, if you can give me a few minutes to think about it, I will tell you what I want."

"A few minutes?" Seth Yuri felt a little strange.

"Yes, a few minutes is enough for an alchemist."

Gustavo Flynn said and said goodbye and left the room.

After walking out of the door, Gustavo Flynn found that the Goblin President was gone, and there was silence all around, with only him alone.

Gustavo Flynn took a deep breath, took out a coin from his magic pocket, and took out a portable magic mirror.

"Great God of Alchemy, please respond to my call, your humble believer confesses to you..."

He whispered the most humble eulogy, and after a while, the God of Alchemy with a puzzled face appeared on the magic mirror.

"This is the first time you confess to me, no, there are only a handful of alchemists who confess to me."

The God of Alchemy has blessed many alchemists in his life, but most of these guys are ungrateful. They only remember that he built a few towers for the Alchemy City that were uglier than feces, and no one appreciated his help.

Gustavo Flynn actually confessed to him, which was really novel, so much so that the God of Alchemy felt incredible.

It's okay to wake up suddenly, but is it so thorough?

Gustavo Flynn seemed to have figured it out, and said devoutly: "The moment I saw this underground magic circle, I forgot all those boring intrigues, and all I thought about was how to improve this magic circle and how to improve its efficiency. At that moment, I finally understood your teachings.

"As an alchemist, I should indeed return to the simplest and most plain beginning. My life should be spent in the laboratory, where I can feel at ease and satisfied. So, I figured it out, and I want to dedicate everything to you to express my apology."

The God of Alchemy said happily: "Very good, Flynn, you didn't disappoint me. It's just that I'm not interested in what you have."

The God of Alchemy masters all alchemy. Without these, the Alchemy Association will only have resources left, which is also useless to the God of Alchemy.

"No, I know you won't be interested in these, but I believe your favored one will be very interested. I have won the right to claim compensation from Ryan on behalf of the Dwarf Kingdom. If the lich handles it, I believe the Alchemy Association will become an organization that truly influences the world, and the development of alchemy will be smoother."
