This Lich Needs More Money

An elf actually appeared in this secret passage of the palace.

Coupled with the devil's surprise attack just now, the dwarf king thought of many conspiracies and tricks. But he soon forgot about these things.

What a joke, elves and devils united?

Even if Corellon was crazy, he would not play with fire with the reputation of the elves for so many years.

This elf must have little to do with Silvermoon High Court. Now it is important to escape. No matter who he is, kill him first.

There is no need to speak out orders, just a look, and the dwarf guards rushed towards the pale elf. However, when these dwarf guards roared and rushed forward, they rushed past the pale elf and completely ignored the existence of the other party.

"Illusion?!"

The dwarf king was shocked. Why didn't he notice the change in magic at all?

Vampires should become very sensitive in the dark tunnel. Ordinary illusions are impossible to take effect, let alone not being noticed at all.

But that was the truth. The guards around the Dwarf King roared and rushed forward, rushing towards the non-existent enemy, and soon disappeared at the end of the passage.

No matter how the Dwarf King shouted, they seemed to be unable to hear.

In the end, the Dwarf King was left alone to face the pale elf.

The Dwarf King knew that something was wrong. This was not an enemy he could deal with. He did not care about hiding his strength. His eyes turned scarlet, and he spread his wings behind him and flew in the opposite direction of the passage.

Escape was the first priority. The underground passages were connected in all directions, and he had enough escape options.

He believed that this maze-like underground passage could make the elf lose his way, as long as he was given a little chance.

The wings fanned the wind, and the Dwarf King turned into a bloody light and flew backwards.

Originally thought that the pale elf would stop him, but the Dwarf King found that he did not move at all, allowing himself to keep pulling away.

Whether it was carelessness or underestimation of the enemy, the Dwarf King just wanted to escape as quickly as possible.

Soon, a corner appeared in front of him.

The dwarf king recognized the pattern at the corner. After turning at this position, he would soon see a fork. If he chose the right at the fork, he could go to another exit.

But when the dwarf king excitedly rushed through the intersection, he was shocked to find that the pale elf appeared again at the end of the passage.

This scared the dwarf king so much that he almost hit the wall. He finally stopped by flapping his wings. The pale elf smiled at him and said, "Why do you always think about running away? You are a king after all."

However, the dwarf king didn't want to talk to him at all, and flapped his wings again to fly back.

Since the day he turned into a vampire because of fear of death, he has thrown away everything related to courage, and what is left is only greed and selfishness.

Facing this weird elf, the dwarf king did not have any courage to fight, and only wanted to escape.

Turning back once, turning back twice, this short passage seemed to be cursed. It was obviously a familiar place, but every choice was to go back.

No matter how the dwarf king struggled, at the end of the passage was the pale elf.

After trying for an unknown amount of time, the dwarf king finally fell to the ground exhausted and could no longer fly. He struggled to stand up, stared at the elf with gritted teeth, and asked, "Who are you and what do you want?! If it's wealth or power, I can give it to you..."

The dwarf king tried very hard to take out the chips and wanted to exchange with the pale elf.

However, the other party put a finger on his lips.

"Shh, don't say those boring words, I don't need your wealth and power, I'm here just to ask you to do one thing, don't worry, I won't take your life."

The dwarf king hurriedly said, "What is that?"

"Just let you read this book."

The pale elf took out a heavy ancient book with a black cover and handed it to the dwarf king.

The dwarf king took it with doubts. As soon as he touched the book, he felt a stinging pain in his hands, as if he was burned by a branding iron. The dwarf king subconsciously wanted to throw the book away, but after just one glance at the cover, he was deeply attracted as if he was possessed.

The dwarf king's eyes turned into two whirlpools, and the words in the book turned into suspended runes, all falling into his eyes. The pages of the book turned quickly until the last page was turned by him, and the last rune fell into his eyes. The original whirlpool stopped rotating and condensed into a pale skull without a jaw.

The dwarf king knelt in front of the pale elf and said devoutly: "Great Supreme God, your humble servant begs for your forgiveness."

The pale elf smiled with satisfaction and said with satisfaction: "Very good, come with me, it is estimated that the above is almost done. Your kingdom has been taken away, and it is difficult to go back."

The dwarf king showed a surprised expression and asked: "God, why is this? I am still the king, I can dedicate the entire kingdom to you."

"Fool, you have been calculated by that person. The moment you escape, this kingdom no longer belongs to you."

The pale elf was too lazy to explain, and opened a space portal and took the dwarf king away directly.

The next second, the two of them came to a gloomy castle.

The dwarf king was still immersed in a strong spirit of devotion. He couldn't help asking: "God, if I have lost my kingdom, what else can I do for you? Please tell me, I can't bear that I can't dedicate myself to you."

"Haha, don't be nervous, you will have time to contribute."

The pale elf led the dwarf king deep into the castle, and soon came to a huge magic circle.

Thirteen cages made of magic power are distributed throughout the magic circle, as if they are some kind of evil ritual. Just looking at them makes the dwarf king feel dizzy, as if his soul is about to be thrown into them.

"Okay, the third cage on the right, that's your place, go in."

The completely controlled dwarf king walked into the cage without hesitation and locked himself inside.

Only then did he realize that most of the thirteen cages had prisoners closed.

A female knight with scars on her face, a devil with modification marks on her body, an orc lying on the ground with a dazed face, an old man wearing an alchemist's robe... It seems that there are all races and identities, and each one is motionless.

Only three of the thirteen cages were empty. The Dwarf King didn't know the identities of these people. Could it be that they were all slaves of the great gods like himself?

Just as he was about to ask, bursts of light lit up on the cage, and he stiffened and was frozen in the cage.

The pale elf walked to the center of the magic circle and drew a large number of magic lines with his hands to reconnect the newly closed cage. The invisible power was extracted from the dwarf king's body and merged into the center of the magic circle.

Suddenly, the light of magic became more obvious, and the invisible malice seemed to come to life.

"Very good, malice of very good quality. A noble king, greedy, selfish, cowardly, and a bit stupid. In addition, he was repeatedly deceived and played with the fate of his hands. He put it on the neck of the lich The rope is tightened again. Now, there are only three left.”

The pale elf walked to one of the empty cages and murmured to himself: "The purest love must be unforgettable when betrayed and deceived. That princess is a little troublesome. Talos is not that easy to deal with. But as long as I’m careful.”

Immediately afterwards, he walked to the second vacant cage and murmured to himself again: "Beyond mortal life, has been deceived repeatedly by mortals. Although it is impossible to really lock a god inside, the deal has been reached. Those goddesses If we are willing to dedicate our hatred and memories, there is no problem here.”

Finally, he came to the center of the magic circle, which was the largest cage, and it was also empty inside.

I heard him say in a different tone: "The most difficult one is betrayal without any reason. Everyone else is the victim deceived by the lich. Only this one must have taken advantage of the lich. They have a close relationship." , and people who are willing to betray him. The deceiver is eventually betrayed by his relatives. This viciousness can make this ritual complete. Alas, that lich has many enemies. This is easy, but it is really not good for people who can betray that lich. Look for it.”

This is a very vicious magic ritual, and it is also the only way Cyric, the Prince of Lies, thought of to deal with Ambrose. Amber Xiu's current state is extremely special. As the spirit in the mirror, there is no way to harm him through conventional means.

The body of the magic mirror is stored in the kingdom of the god of alchemy. In his heyday, Cyric could not just smash open other people's kingdoms and snatch the artifacts inside, let alone just regain his own sanity now and have lost most of it. strength.

Previously, he wanted to use a magic mirror to curse Amber Xiu and distort all the information that Amber Xiu came into contact with. However, it was not that easy to deceive a professional liar. Amber Xiu soon realized that something was wrong, and repeated it again and again. Break his curse.

Cyric was also helpless. There had never been a special artifact like the Magic Mirror in the world, and he never expected that someone would take the initiative to turn himself into the spirit of this artifact. Alchemy is really a troublesome thing that even the power of the gods cannot completely solve.

After thinking for a long time, Cyric finally used his wisdom to create this vicious ritual.

This is a curse that can directly affect Amber Xiu's soul, and the effect of the curse is also very simple, it is chaos, complete chaos.

Once the ritual is completed, Amberxiu will no longer be able to receive any normal information from the outside world. The sounds will be distorted into meaningless gibbering, or words directly reversed and spliced ​​together; the colors will be polluted, like paints that smear with each other and can no longer show their original shapes.

Whether it is touch or mental perception, all means of sensing the outside world will be interfered with, and this interference has no rules. In this way, Amber Xiu will be imprisoned in a lonely cage forever.

This is an extremely cruel torture, even more miserable than the undead.

A little longer and anyone would go crazy.

Cyric couldn't find a way to kill Ambrose, so he could only use this method to destroy him. The result is the same. When Amberxiu falls into this kind of pure chaos, the so-called fraudster can only become an idiot.

However, the conditions for launching this ritual are very harsh.

For the venue alone, it was necessary to choose a location closely related to Amber Xiu. This castle was the place where Amber Xiu was reincarnated as a lich. Since Isabel moved away, the castle has been completely vacant.

Cyric used a little trick, and he transformed the castle into a secret base for holding ceremonies.

Next are the thirteen sacrifices, all of which must be people closely related to Amber Xiu. They must have endured Amber Xiu's deception, and their fates are deeply entangled with each other. Moreover, the content of their deception is still unknown. It can't be the same.

Fortunately, Amber Xiu has deceived many people over the past few hundred years, so it is not difficult at all to choose.

Although Xirik could not use the power of fate, as the Prince of Lies, he could easily distinguish the connection between the liar and the victim, and soon he found ten suitable sacrifices.

It was just that the last one was the most troublesome. He had to bear the favor of Amber Shu, have a close relationship with him, and be willing to betray him. Such a person was really hard to find.

Xirik thought for a long time. Is there such a person around Amber Shu?

The withered rose was not suitable. Although the two had a deep relationship, the withered rose was about to die. Her soul was close to "blank". There was no gratitude, and there was no way to produce the evil of betrayal.

"The alchemist named Isabel?" Xirik shook his head quickly and rejected this candidate.

The love-related sacrifices had been selected. One more would only affect the effect of the ritual. Isabel's feelings for Amber Shu were very complicated. It was not a simple master and apprentice, but it was difficult to grasp.

"Then it seems that there is only one left."

The pale elf condensed a phantom, fell into the cage, and turned into the face of a young man. He is William Harvey, Amber's student and the most gifted prophet.

"Yes, this is the best candidate, but it will take some effort to make him betray."

Harvey has a good relationship with Amber. They have saved each other's lives. In terms of close relationship, no one can compare with him.

He was thinking about how to make Harvey betray Amber, but he suddenly turned his head and looked in the direction of the castle gate.

"See who's coming?"

The pale elf's eyes penetrated through the layers of walls and saw everything outside the castle.

A dusty young man appeared outside the castle, holding a staff and pushing open the door, as if he was going to come in.

And this young man was Harvey.

The gate of the castle slowly opened, and Harvey slowly walked in.

The castle, which had not been taken care of for a long time, now had a faint smell of rot.

Harvey didn't care, he just walked into the castle step by step.

The reason why he appeared here was because he sensed the instructions of fate. Inside this castle, there is an opportunity for him to become a legend.

This premonition was so strong that Harvey couldn't ignore it at all.

However, the goddess of fate seemed to have another instruction. He could only come here alone and couldn't let anyone know, otherwise he would encounter unprecedented danger.

This premonition was equally strong.

Harvey's first reaction at the time was - is it so targeted?

As a student of Amber, there are no secrets between the master and the apprentice. The instructions of the goddess of fate require him not to tell anyone. Isn't that hiding it from his teacher?

Harvey was helpless. He knew that Amber had completely stopped using the power of fate recently and once again became a scumbag who abandoned the goddess. This time, the instructions of fate were probably related to his teacher.

If Harvey was given another two years, he might be able to say "no" to the instructions of the goddess of fate. Harvey's previous research on the method of circumventing fate has made obvious progress. It's really just a matter of time. When it succeeds, he can delete those unfortunate futures at will and always choose the future he wants.

But unfortunately, the goddess of fate has also anticipated this, so she gave Harvey a fate that he had to obey.

One is a mysterious goddess, the other is his teacher. Harvey feels helpless as a child when his parents are fighting. Harvey has no choice. He cannot defy fate now, or he will fall to death the next day because of his left foot stepping out of the door.

"Come on, it's a premonition of becoming a legend, which is good for me."

Harvey comforted himself and continued to go deeper into the castle. Soon he saw a pale-skinned elf appear in front of him.

The pale elf with a strange breath waved to him and said, "William Harvey, I've been waiting for you for a long time."
