This Lich Needs More Money

"Zariel, I'm afraid it will be difficult to realize your wish."

Amber Xiu's words made Zarrell feel desperate, but the angel still suppressed his emotions and asked: "What's the difficulty? I know your character very well. You can tell me what the price is."

Amberxiu shook his head and said: "I'm a businessman, and I really want to make a profit in the middle, but the premise is that I can provide you with what you want. I will raise the price, but I will never take what I can't give you. To deceive my clients. The reply from Paradise Mountain is very clear, you are not eligible to return now.”

Zarrell said excitedly: "Why?! Haven't I endured enough torture in these years in hell?! What is my fault that I need to sink into hell forever!"

In Zarrell's view, he was an angel who came from Heaven Mountain and came to hell to supervise the war with a sacred mission. It was those damn devils who caught him and forced him to become a fallen angel and an ugly devil. He fought to the death all the way until he was exhausted and was captured. He did not violate the rules of Heaven Mountain at all.

It's okay if those gods don't help. I have worked so hard to strip away the power of hell and just want to go home. But in the end, even this request was rejected? !

"Don't yell at me." Amber Xiu said helplessly: "It's not the rules I set. I'm just a person who comes to deliver the news. But your problem has been anticipated by the people at Paradise Mountain. "

On the magic mirror, a lot of words and images appeared, exactly what happened when Zarrell entered hell.

Amberxiu explained: "Zariel, when you entered hell to supervise the bloody battle, you were asked to supervise the bloody battle of the devils. However, you felt that the devils were passive and slow in their work, and the angels who were traveling with them turned a blind eye to this, so you decided to take action yourself and lead Invading hell with your legion of hell knights... On the surface, it seems to be a good thing, but the actual consequences are that the hell devils suffered heavy losses, the blood river front completely collapsed, and the devils passed through the first level of hell and entered many worlds. , causing irreparable heavy casualties.”

These are not exaggerations by Amber Xiu, but are recorded by special investigations from Paradise Mountain.

Zariel is a great angel. This is the main reason why no one cares about him in hell.

Otherwise, it would be impossible for such a huge force as Heaven Mountain to be able to get back even one angel. The Lord of Light and Dawn would have a lot of allies. With these gods added together, how could Hell not give him face?

Falling into hell forever and guarding the Blood River, this is the punishment Zariel needs to accept, and it is also the tacit understanding between Heaven Mountain and Hell.

Now Zarrell puts aside his responsibilities and goes home when he says he wants to.

Not to mention whether the Lord of Hell agrees or not, Heaven Mountain cannot agree either!

Zariel didn't show any surprise when he heard this. Instead, he said impatiently: "It's the same thing again. I'm tired of hearing it. Those demons who passively resisted the abyss would have allowed demons to wreak havoc everywhere. If it hadn't been for me at that time, Choosing to invade, the situation in the Abyss would not have been possible. It was I who broke the so-called tacit understanding between Heaven Mountain and Hell, and it was I who made Hell truly bear the responsibility of resisting the invasion of demons.

"Without me, demons can still invade countless planes. I suppressed these demons in the Blood River for countless years. I never think that I was wrong back then. Even if I was really wrong, I have already atoneed for my sins over the years. ! What reason do they have to prevent me from returning to Heaven Mountain?"

Amber Xiu felt helpless upon hearing this. This was a negotiation that could not be measured numerically.

Both sides have their own positions. Heaven Mountain and Hell believe that muddling along in the bloody battle is a routine operation, while Zarrell believes that doing so is no different from not resisting.

Amber Xiu has not personally experienced the scene at that time and cannot give his own answer, but now it seems that there is no absolute right or wrong in this.

And Amber Xiu still said the same thing: "Don't yell at me, I don't make the rules. If you have the ability to blow up hell and heaven mountain, you can make your own rules. The question now is what you said, those powerful gods are completely I don’t want to look at you, and I don’t want to pay attention to you. Let’s put it this way, Zariel, if Heaven Mountain doesn’t open the door, you can’t go back, and the result will be that you will continue to sink into hell and be captured and trained again.”

Zariel was silent for a moment, and then said: "No, I will die here, burn my soul to the ground, and burn this Blood River Front to ashes."

Zariel has made the decision that he will never become a devil again, that cruel, vicious and incomplete thing that suffers physical and mental torture. An angel burns everything he has, and this power can completely destroy the Blood River Front. At that time, there is no telling what will happen.

Perhaps all the demons were wiped out and demons surged out, or perhaps the Blood River was destroyed and the tributaries of the Styx River were diverted and flowed to other planes to cause great harm.

Anyway, no matter which one it is, Zariel's move is a way of killing everyone.

It was precisely because of this situation that it made sense for Amber Xiu to talk to him.

Neither Heaven Mountain nor Hell want to see this scene. The gods are not omnipotent. No matter how downcast Zariel is, he is still a god.

No one can guarantee 100% that Zariel can be suppressed before he commits suicide.

"So, we still have a chance to talk." Amberxiu sighed and said, "Zariel, what is your final bottom line?"

Zarrell shook his head and said: "I can give up everything. I just want to return to my hometown. I miss the sky there, the sunshine there, and the flowers there. I don't want to be wrapped in sulfur and blood and rot in hell." ”

"So, as long as you can return to Heaven Mountain, you can even give up the appearance of an angel?" Amber Xiu asked.

"Appearance means nothing to me. Can it be uglier than the devil?"

Amber Xiu nodded, and then said: "Okay, I'll fight for you."

On the other side of the magic mirror, in the Kingdom of the Lord of the Morning, Amber Xiu shrugged and said to the god who was emitting holy light all over his body: "You can see that Zariel has really given up. This time, it is impossible for Him to be trapped in hell again. So, can Heaven Mountain give him a break?"

The Lord of the Morning shook his head and said: "This is not out of my own will, but the law of Heaven Mountain. Just as Hell has its own rules, so does Heaven Mountain. Zariel's behavior is extreme and is no longer accepted by Heaven Mountain. Whether I allow it or not, He cannot return."

So there are basically no hypocrites in the lawful camp of this world. If you violate your divine duties, you can't even stay in the plane you are in and will be kicked out directly. Amber Xiu wanted to work with these lawful gods at the beginning, but he always met goddesses from the evil camp.

But the problem cannot be solved if it goes on like this. We can't let Zariel blow himself up.

If the Blood River Front is really blown up, Amberxiu will also be implicated. You know, Zariel is his partner. After the Lord of Hell wakes up, the first person he will find is Mammon, and the second is Amberxiu.

And Amberxiu can't get out of Hell.

So, no matter what, Amberxiu must solve this matter properly, and at the same time, he must get enough benefits.

But Zariel's appearance makes it impossible for him to let go of his obsession, and the more extreme he is, the less he will be accepted by Heaven Mountain. This becomes a two-sided blockage, and there is no way to win-win.

"Then we can only settle for the second best."

Amberxiu disappeared in the Paradise, and his consciousness returned to the Hell side. He said to Zariel: "One good news, one bad news. Which one do you want to hear?"

Zariel said impatiently: "Don't play this trick, just say what you have... Tell me the good news first."

"Haha." Amberxiu couldn't help laughing out loud. This angel is quite stubborn. "Well, the good news is that the Lord of Dawn has made it clear that it was not the gods of Mount Heaven who stopped you from returning, and they have no objection to this."

Zariel showed a surprised expression and asked quickly: "Really?"

"Of course, the Lord of Dawn told me personally that He did not oppose your return to Mount Heaven." Amber said firmly.

Zariel waited for a while and confirmed that there was no holy light bombardment on Amber's head, and temporarily believed him.

"What is the bad news?"

"The bad news is troublesome. Although the gods have no objection to your return, Mount Heaven has its own laws, and your hometown has rejected your return."

"How is this possible!" Zariel showed an expression that was more desperate than before.

Zariel could be enemies with the gods without blinking an eye, and at worst he would fight desperately, just like when he rushed into hell, he was never afraid of death.

But his hometown rejected him. This is a place that Zariel has missed for a long time, and this is a fact that he cannot accept anyway.

Seeing the holy light on Zariel surging and looking like he was about to explode at any time, Amberxiu hurriedly said: "Don't worry, it's not that there is no way to solve it."

Zariel sneered and said to Amberxiu: "Do you know what being rejected by the world's laws means?"

Amberxiu said confidently: "It means that you also have the opportunity to be accepted by the world, just like I came to hell. I just asked my friends about it. The reason why you said you would give me the authority of the first layer of hell is that you can't hold it yourself. It is hell that accepted me and hopes that I will become the master of the first layer."

Amberxiu's illusory figure floated out of the magic mirror and turned into a giant as big as Zariel, reaching out to grab Zariel's heart.

A ball of scarlet light flew out of Zariel's body and flew towards Amberxiu's projection impatiently.

This is the embodiment of the laws of the first layer of hell. It is a divine artifact like a heart. After being integrated into Amberxiu's projection, this illusory light and shadow began to grow flesh and blood and turned into reality.

With an evil face, deep eyes, and a robe like the stars, if it weren't for the devil's horns growing on his forehead, Amberxiu's devil look would look more like a mysterious magician.

Amberxiu touched the horns on his head and said to Zariel: "Look, it's not difficult to make a certain world accept you. Look how long I have been in hell."

Zariel remained silent.

Although he took the initiative to strip off all the laws of hell, this thing was originally sealed in his body. At the critical moment, he wanted to detonate it and completely destroy everything nearby.

But Amberxiu just waved his hand, and the heart of hell flew towards Amberxiu, and Zariel couldn't stop it at all.

As Amberxiu said, he is a sinner loved by hell. The whole hell welcomes his arrival and hopes that he can become the master of the first layer of hell.

At this moment, Amberxiu is no longer a mortal, but a god-like existence.

Zariel tightly grasped his swords, looked at the new Lord of Hell warily, and asked, "Are you going to help me or suppress me? You'd better hurry up. When the Lord of Hell wakes up, there will be nothing to talk about between us."

"Don't worry, I have just stabilized the shock of the first layer of hell. I believe that the great Asmodeus will also give me, a new employee, a relatively relaxed probation period. Now, let's talk about your problem. Zariel, if you have the opportunity to regain the recognition of Mount Heaven, are you willing to work hard for it?"

"You just said that I was rejected by the laws of Mount Heaven!" Zariel said angrily: "The laws of the world will not give you a chance to negotiate, and your tongue, which is more cunning than the devil, is useless."

Amber Xiu shook his head and said: "You still underestimate me. When I was in the main material plane, I became a savior hero as a lich, and the Ryan Empire that believed in the Holy Light had to kneel and kowtow to my statue. When I was in hell, you treated me as an ordinary sinner, but I was recognized by hell and became the master of the first layer.

"Do you think I can do all this just by talking? "

Zariel frowned. Why did this sound so familiar? Did this guy say the same thing in a similar tone before?

Before Zariel could remember, Amber continued: "You still don't know me well enough. Not only can I make every world I'm in accept me, I can also make an entire race change its camp. Do the drow elves know that it was me who made them reintegrate into the elves? Now we just need an opportunity to restore the integrity of the elven pantheon. "

Zariel was speechless. Although there were many things wrong here, no one could refute Amber's contribution to the drow issue.

It was he who had screwed Rose over so badly that Corellon found an opportunity to settle accounts with his ex-wife. It was he who cleverly used the internal conflicts of the drow to divide this race and began a slow but effective racial integration.

Now the new god of the drow is about to appear, and at least half of it is due to Amber.

Amber saw that Zariel was silent, and knew that He was a little moved, and continued: "Whether it is mortals or gods, they all spread rumors that I am only good at this mouth. In fact, what I am best at is to change people's appearance, and even their hearts change accordingly. To be honest with you, the clerk of the second layer of hell was killed by me and went to hell, but today he is not going to do me a favor and help me stop the master of the second layer of hell. "

Zariel didn't know this, and his eyes widened in shock. The Iron Fair never showed up, and everything was left to the clerk to handle, just like the master of the second level of hell.

Zariel also knew the ability of this clerk, and thought about winning him over.

In the end, this clerk died at the hands of this guy?

He killed someone and sent him to hell, but this clerk not only didn't bear a grudge, but also helped?

This guy's legendary grace ability is forced brainwashing, just like the Prince of Lies.

No wonder everyone says that the Prince of Lies's priesthood should be given to him.

"Having said so much, I just want to tell you a fact. There is no one I can't transform, even the gods. Heaven Mountain doesn't accept you now, but after my transformation, it will definitely open its doors to welcome you back. If you believe it, listen to my arrangements; if you don't believe it, you can commit suicide now, anyway, whether it was before or now, you can't kill me by self-detonation. "

Zariel frowned and thought for a long time, and finally couldn't help asking: "What can you do? "

Amber laughed and said, "Don't worry, this is a long process, but before that, you have to promise to obey my orders. And I promise that I will do my best to help you return to Heaven Mountain."

The flames of hell lit up in Amber's palm, turning into a short contract.

Amber handed the contract to Zariel and said, "This is the first contract I signed after my promotion. I will bet the honor of the devil to fulfill your wish. Zariel, are you willing to believe me?"
