This Lich Needs More Money

Cyric didn't want to gamble with Amber.

As long as He doesn't gamble, He will always have another chance. If the calculation fails this time, you can continue next time.

As long as you stay out of trouble and don't harm yourself, you will always have a chance to win.

But what Cyric is facing now is no ordinary opponent.

In the concept of mortals and gods, the Archduke the Deceiver is the suitable candidate for the priesthood of lies, and Cyric is just a loser who stole the priesthood by luck.

With the Snake Queen gone, the news will spread even wider.

Cyric can also feel that his priesthood is getting weaker and weaker. Regardless of whether he accepts this bet or not, as long as Amberxiu can successfully persuade the five demon lords to retreat, then Amberxiu will be one step closer to the priesthood of lies. I hope Rick is even going to be beaten into a lesser god.

This was a conspiracy. Regardless of whether Cyric accepted it or not, the devil had already won half the bet the moment Amberxiu said it.

While Cyric was still hesitating, Amberxiu wasted no time and teleported again. This time he opened the space door, and what appeared was a baboon with two heads.

After the Snake Demon Queen was recuperating at home, the most active demon lord on the Blood River battlefield was undoubtedly Demogorgon. This guy transformed into powerful clones to invade hell more than once, and Zariel had just killed one of them before.

But this is nothing to Demogorgon. As long as it launches an attack on hell, no matter what the plan is, Demogorgon will get involved.

Cyric was very worry-free when he persuaded Demogorgon, because the demon itself was eager to slaughter and conquer. It didn't matter whether he won or lost, as long as he had the opportunity to kill the demon.

In other words, Demogorgon has no weaknesses or handles that he can grasp.

Can such an opponent be solved with words?

Cyric was curious when he heard Amber Xiu say to him: "Don't wait and waste your breath. Do you want to bet or not?"

Seeing Amber Xiu's confident look, Cyric couldn't help but wonder if he could really defeat Demogorgon with his mouth.

Cyric thought hard for a long time, but he didn't understand what method Demogorgon could use to solve the problem.

There is no point in threatening Demogorgon. He is not afraid of death. One of his heads is eager to fight, while the other head is insidious and cunning. No one can plot against him. Demogorgon does not have any past weaknesses... This kind of opponent, How to convince?

Cyric didn't think of an answer, so he chose to remain silent.

Amber Xiu said disdainfully: "I'm scared again. In this case, I won't waste time. I'll solve it as quickly as possible."

Under Cyric's shocked eyes, Amberxiu directly opened the space channel to the maximum. Although Demogorgon was a little surprised, he rushed in with his demon army without hesitation.

The Ixi stingrays surged in like a wave and began to attack Amberxiu crazily.

The same goes for Demogorgon. The two baboon heads roared in unison, and hundreds of vicious curses were issued, all flying towards Amberxiu.

He looks like he's about to start a fight, how can he still rely on his mouth to solve the problem?

And Amberxiu was destined to shock Cyric again, because he really didn't take action, he just mentioned a name: "Tiamat, it's up to you."

This sound was half a beat slower than Demogorgon's curse casting, so theoretically it was definitely too late.

Therefore, the five-headed dragon jumped out of the void and crashed towards Demogorgon before Amberxiu opened his mouth.

The evil dragon goddess showed her true form. The five-headed dragon covered the sky and blocked out the sun. With one dive, she set off a storm, blowing back the waves of Ixi rays, and her body was torn apart by the powerful airflow while she was still in the air.

All of Demogorgon's hundreds of curses were blocked by Tiamat, and they failed to have much impact on the evil dragon goddess.

The next second, two baboon heads and five dragon heads were biting together.

The tentacles wrapped around the dragon's neck, and the dragon's flames roasted the tentacles. The two behemoths fought so hard that the ground shook. Every roll caused heavy casualties to the creatures on the ground.

Cyric looked at the scene in front of him in disbelief.

No, why would Tiamat help?

This is impossible, Tiamat is obviously his ally. Originally, Cyric wanted to contact Tiamat to attack together, but after thinking about it, he thought that the dragon goddess was too powerful and had an ambiguous relationship with the devil, so he chose another demon lord.

But Tiamat clearly has a grudge against this devil, so why should she help him?

Shouldn't Tiamat add insult to injury?

Seeing Cyric's shocked expression, Ambrose laughed triumphantly again.

"You, you really don't look very smart. Didn't I remind you before? Gareth was supposed to be a god, but he was dragged down by the dragon clan, so he couldn't be promoted. Then why do you think Gareth is now a god? Are you willing to restore all your strength and help me conquer the Styx? Of course, it’s because I have solved the dragon clan that has been dragging Gareth down.”

Only then did Cyric realize that Amberxiu was using a mortal five-color dragon to make a deal.

Cyric asked excitedly: "You gave all those dragons to Tiamat in exchange for Tiamat helping you deal with Demogorgon?!"

Amberxiu explained proudly: "What are you giving? The five-color dragon is originally the descendant of Tiamat and belongs to him. I just let these dragons lift the thousand-year curse. You only have gods in your eyes. Knowing that the three goddesses Laila, Ai Ge and Catherine were about to unite, they forgot that the World Conference was also being held at the same time, and all kingdoms had to send representatives to participate. It just so happened that the curse that the Dragon Clan suffered back then was to require the leaders of all kingdoms. Can only be terminated with consent.

"I just said hello to the Lord of Dawn and asked this agenda to be added to the meeting. All races agreed to let the dragons return, but they need to make atonement for their crimes back then. I won't go into the specific details, anyway, the five-color dragon is heavy Being freed and able to repopulate the mainland was a favor I sold to Tiamat.

"The Dragon Clan is free, and Gareth's father-in-law can rest assured. As long as Gareth builds his own Kingdom of God, he can naturally bring Cang Gu and her father to the Kingdom of God to live together forever. Cyric, you are too You underestimate the power of mortals, Gareth has been ignored by you, and the mortal kingdom has been ignored by you, so you can't even guess what cards I have left. "

Cyric gritted his teeth and said: "You clearly used the dragons as a cash cow. If you let them go free, you gave up most of your business in the mortal world. I was negligent. I didn't expect that you are a greedy guy." Will take the initiative to give up his wealth, and in such a roundabout way. "

Amberxiu shook his head and said, "You have misunderstood me too much. It is true that I like to make money, but I have never been stingy with spending money."

There are always people who equate greed and stinginess. This is also the misunderstanding of Amberxiu by many people and gods.

When he was a lich, Amberxiu could be described as insatiable. The description of plucking the feathers of a flying goose is a euphemism, and even if a giant flying dragon flew by, he would have his scales drawn and his blood sold by his weight.

But few people have noticed that Amberxiu is not stingy at all when it comes to spending money.

The cost of an alchemy factory was so high that Amber Xiu directly built two islands to build the factory. Krypton gold spells are so expensive, easily costing hundreds of thousands or hundreds of thousands of gold coins. Amber Xiu has never felt distressed when fighting with others.

Earning money is meant to be spent, and as long as it is spent in a worthwhile way, let alone the dragon business, An Boxiu can pack up the entire bank of hell and throw it out. As long as it can kill several powerful gods after throwing it out, he will not even frown. It will wrinkle a bit.

Cyric was speechless and could only watch Demogorgon and Tiamat fight on the river of blood.

But Demogorgon's clone could not be compared with Tiamat's body after all. A head was quickly torn off, while Tiamat only had a few more wounds on her body.

As for those Yixi stingrays, there was no need for Amber Xiu to take action. Most of them were killed by the aftermath of the battle between the two gods. Amberxiu didn't need to worry about the rest. Bayer, who had been hiding out of sight, shouted "For the Grand Duke of Deceivers" and led his own bodyguards to charge at the front line, specifically to bully these defeated soldiers.

Bayer would not do such a thing as providing help in times of need, but now that the war situation has become clear, and Tiamat is working for Amber Xiu, how long will it take if he doesn't show off now?

Are you going to wait until Amber Xiu comes back to cause trouble for himself?

After working as someone else's subordinate for so many years, Bayer still knows how to distinguish the situation.

Demogorgon was taught a hard lesson and knew that he had failed again, but this time the failure was a bit too outrageous. Are you talking about getting a bargain? What about the five demon lords who agreed to lay siege to hell?

Cyric, what about the Archduke of Hell whom you are patting on your chest to assure that he is too weak to have any help?

Before the clone died, Demogorgon roared with his remaining head: "Cyric, I curse you to sink into the abyss of the cesspool forever. May the stench fill your mouth and fill up your lies!"

Cyric's face became even more gloomy. This was not a harsh word, this was a real curse.

Although the effect cannot be achieved 100%, it is still a big burden for Cyric now.

Tiamat threw Demogorgon's body in front of Amberxiu, and the five heads stared at him fiercely, and then said: "Just this once! I won't help you anymore!"

Although the battle just now was not dangerous, it was very tiring.

Demogorgon's clone also contains powerful power. Tiamat was injured a little before she was able to deal with it. The wounds were all filled with the residual power of the curse. It was not easy to recover.

This is the most troublesome part of Demogorgon. This demon is proficient in all kinds of vicious curses. If you fight with him, you will definitely be contaminated by these things. It can be said that you will definitely suffer.

But Tiamat had to help. The dragon clan had suffered heavy losses, and they were just waiting to regain their strength this time. The dragon, who was related to the entire world, had to do it even if he didn't want to.

Amberxiu nodded and thanked Tiamat.

"Don't worry, you know my credibility very well. You can think that I have some conspiracy before I agree, but I will never go back on what I promised, let alone violate the contract. The Dragon Clan will be free, as long as they no longer take the initiative to provoke dispute, I will give them the right to live a normal life.”

Tiamat listened and said nothing, just flapped her wings and disappeared.

At this time, Bayer also appeared in front of Amber Xiu with a smile on his face, and reported respectfully: "Sir, the invading demons have been cleaned up, and not a single fish has slipped through the net."

"Bayer." Amber Xiu patted the wallflower on the shoulder and said to him: "There are still two hell lords that have not been solved. How about you stay busy for a while."

After hearing this, Bayer's smile suddenly froze.

But Bayer quickly agreed: "It is my responsibility to guard the Blood River. Sir, please rest assured that I will never let a demon leave the Blood River alive."

Without waiting for Amber Xiu to respond, Cyric sneered and said: "Is this what you call solving with words? Isn't it also a violent method in the end? If you don't do it yourself, let your subordinates do it. What's the point of such a word game? "

Amberxiu was not angry after hearing this. He smiled and said to Cyric in the cage: "I just said, if you don't agree to my bet, then I don't need to waste my time and energy. I will solve it in the simplest way. That’s right. But it doesn’t mean that this is the only way for me. Even if Demogorgon comes again, I can easily solve it.”

Cyric spread his hands and said disdainfully: "It has already happened, and it is meaningless no matter what you say. If you really want to convince me, then we will make a new bet."

Amberxiu said patiently: "Okay, if you have any comments, you can raise them."

"Don't play word games. Words are words to persuade. You cannot use any form of violence, including various threats. This is no different from directly using divine power to suppress. You cannot borrow any other power, whether it is gods or mortals..."

Cyric talked a lot and wanted to add countless clauses to this contract.

Amberxiu listened impatiently and interrupted: "How about we make it simple? Not only do I not use violence, I don't speak directly, and I don't use words, pictures, or any other way to express my meaning. I will only appear among these demon lords." In front of them, if I can make them retreat on their own, what if I win? "

Cyric was stunned for a moment and said doubtfully: "Are you kidding?"

Amberxiu said firmly: "I'm not joking. Your persistent demands are really ugly. Cyric, what we are competing for is the priesthood, something that mortals dream of... Oh, although your priesthood It was picked up by a lucky dog. Anyway, this thing is very precious, so our gambling game should also have a legendary color that matches its preciousness.

"I don't speak, I don't use any way to express what I'm thinking, and I won't use other people's words to express it for me. And you can speak at will and persuade your allies to attack me. As long as you can get them to do it, I lose anyway.

"Such a condition is enough to treat you well. If you don't dare to accept it, then I won't bother to bet with you anymore. You should go and taste the torture of hell, and then go back to your kingdom of God to shrink your head. Turtle."

There are two opportunities left, one is the King of Ghouls and the other is the Girl of Misfortune. Although these two are not powerful, you only need to let them learn to attack like Demogorgon and you will win.

This time, Cyric was really forced to the point of desperation.

Amberxiu said nothing and allowed Cyric to act freely. In this case, Cyric had an absolute advantage. This is a confrontation of words. If Cyric doesn't even dare to challenge, and this spreads out, the priesthood of lies will really be taken away by this devil.

You are given a chance, but you don’t even dare to lie. How dare you call yourself the Prince of Lies?

Cyric clenched his fists and said to Amber Xiu: "Okay, let's sign a contract based on this standard. If I lose, everything I have belongs to you. If you lose, you have to give everything. "

Amber Xiu smiled slightly, took out the contract, modified the contents, and then signed his name.

Cyric studied it repeatedly, confirmed that there was nothing wrong with the contract, and signed his name.

Amber Xiu held the contract high and declared loudly: "The contract is completed, and the nine hells will witness it."

Even if it is a clone, it still represents Cyric's own will, so at the moment the contract is signed, both parties are bound by the power of the law.

No matter who it is, no matter where it is, the power of hell will force both parties to fulfill the contract.

"So, let's start with the next one now. Is it the Ghoul King or the Girl of Misfortune? I want to see how you can persuade these two without speaking." Cyric said with a sneer.

Amberxiu shook his head and said, "There is no need to choose. The King of Ghouls has been destined to leave just now, and I can no longer feel his breath. It seems that he is very well-informed and knows about the Mother of Beholder Demons and the Queen of Snake Demons." Retreating, Demogorgon had been dealt with, so he ran away.

"What a pity, Cyric, now you only have one last chance left."
