This Lich Needs More Money

 Chapter 77 The most important sacrifice

Amberxiu emerged from the state where time stopped, and his head was held in the hands of this beautiful woman carved from white jade, just as shown in the prophecy.

Amberxiu looked at the noble beauty in front of him, and then at the mighty death knights on both sides, and he had already guessed the identity of the other party.

 “Are you...Ms. Rose?”

Amberxiu's tone was a bit awkward. He never expected that he would meet this important patron under such circumstances.

　　It turns out that the person who took off his head was not really taking off his head, but only one head grew back on his own.

Apoptotic Rose smiled and put Amberxiu's head on the table nearby, then stretched out her finger and pointed at the death knight nearby.

The fingers of the Apoptotic Rose seemed to be a black hole, sucking the death knight directly in. Regardless of flesh, blood, or armor, everything was crushed and turned into pure dark magic.

 Shortly afterwards, Apoptotic Rose pointed her finger on Amber Xiu's head.

These dark magic powers turned into thousands of threads, starting from Amber Xiu's neck and constantly intertwined and combined. Amberxiu only felt that his bones were itching. With the help of this power, new bones quickly grew and returned to the appearance of a skeleton. Although it is impossible to completely return to peak condition, he can already exert his original three or four points of strength.

Amberxiu moved his body and said with emotion: "Ms. Rose, compared to you, my control over dark magic is like that of a child."

Amberxiu was amazed by Apoptotic Rose's move. This was no longer the difference between strength and weakness, but the control of dark magic. She is worthy of being the Queen of the Undead in the Underdark. In terms of necromancy, even Amberxiu can't keep up with her while riding a bone dragon.

Apoptotic Rose smiled and said: "The specialization is just different. I can't see the secret of the Alchemy City, but you only discovered the truth after seeing a little bit of the incomplete map."

 Apoptotic Rose is not polite. In her opinion, although Amber Xiu is a parallel import legend, he is really knowledgeable. Probably because he knew more, he was asked to create special creatures like mercury zombies.

“However, you actually gave me the phylactery for safekeeping, which I didn’t expect.”

Amberxiu felt extremely embarrassed. It was hard to say it was random now.

Damn fate, there really is no room left at all. But having your head picked up by the Apoptotic Rose is better than being held in the palm of a paladin's hand.

Amberxiu could only bite the bullet and say: "You and I are partners, and of course I choose to believe you. Moreover, even if you think this life box is fake, don't you still put in the effort to protect it. A magic scroll that freezes in time. , your generosity makes my soul tremble.”

 The last sentence is Amber Xiu’s true words. This Ms. Rose is really not short of money.

Apoptotic Rose did not explain or be polite. She really valued Amber Xiu and it was a pleasure to work with him. One was rich and the other was skilled. It was a perfect match.

Over the years, Apoptotic Rose has only encountered one undead person who can improve zombies: Amber Xiu.

Regardless of whether the core technology was obtained from others, the research of magic is originally based on the achievements of predecessors. Amber Xiu was able to combine the technology of Alchemy City with Zombies. This creativity was his achievement.

Her teacher Morgan would also be very happy if he knew about it.

Because of this, Apoptotic Rose hesitated for a while, whether she should take this opportunity to enslave Amber Xiu, whose life box was in front of her.

However, enslaving an undead requires manipulation of the soul of the other person. Just like human brain surgery, it is impossible to guarantee that it will be foolproof.

If Amberxiu wants to resist, his soul is likely to be severely damaged, causing him to become a real puppet and completely lose his will.

Apoptotic Rose values ​​his wisdom rather than his strength, and turning him into a fool would be more than worth the loss.

80% chance of making him a fool, 10% chance of completely destroying his soul, and finally 10% chance of perfect control.

If Umberto was a rampaging undead like Gareth, Apoptotic Rose might have to give it a try, but Umberto works with wisdom, so the risks of doing so are far greater than the rewards.

 Sure enough, it is better to try to bind the other party with feelings.

After all, he had already sent the life box over without doing anything. Apoptotic Rose felt that she might have mastered the method of making the undead move, but she just didn't think about it. If I talk to that bone dragon lady next time, maybe it will work out.

Amber Xiu doesn’t know what Apoptotic Rose is thinking. After all, the undead can remain expressionless as long as they don’t deliberately express themselves. Reading human micro-expressions means nothing to the undead. The human-like beauty in front of her just kept smiling politely, trying not to detect any clues.

The two of them were polite to each other for a while, and then Apoptotic Rose asked about the plan for the Alchemy City.

Apoptotic Rose asked enthusiastically: "You appear here in such a mess. It seems that there is an accident in the plan. Do you need my help?"

Amberxiu was really moved when he heard this, but he still shook his head and said: "Ms. Rose, please help me, but I can't pay you enough. I can't give you the opportunity to pray."

 He had never thought of asking Apoptotic Rose for help before, but only passively accepted the other party's information.

 The main reason is that this wishing technique can only benefit one person.

 Don’t even think about making a long list and then making a wish and saying, “My wish is that everything written on this piece of paper will come true.”

Don't try to play this trick, a wish is just a wish, otherwise the laws of the world will seriously teach you how to behave.

Apoptotic Rose said: "The prayer spell has no meaning to me. You should already understand my persistence. I want to destroy Ryan, but the prayer spell cannot do it." Amber Xiu thought for a moment, nodded and said, "That's right. The Lord of the Dawn will not let the wish spell destroy Ryan."

The Lord of the Morning is an extremely powerful god, and the essence of the wish spell is to change reality through the power of world laws, which is just a simple task for the god.

 The Lord of the Dawn only needs to make a slight move, and the effect of the wish spell will completely disappear.

This is the benefit of faith. When you believe in a generous and powerful god, you can really be protected. Of course, the premise is that you must behave according to the teachings of the gods, otherwise the backlash will be very terrifying.

"Even if you don't need the wishing technique, I can't give you an equivalent reward." Amberxiu hesitated for a moment, and then said: "Or, can I give you a discount on the subsequent payment?"

Apoptotic Rose laughed, and then said to Amber Xiu: "Consider it an early investment. Maybe you can become a **** through this prayer spell."

Amberxiu shook his head and said: "I will not make such a greedy wish, and you can also make a wish to become a god, right? You have a greater chance of success than me."

"But then we can't destroy Ryan with our own hands. Gods have their own rules. Otherwise, why can't their gods take action in countries invaded by the Lion Empire? I am still in the material plane and facing the Lion Empire. Once I As a god, I will face direct intervention from the Lord of the Morning, and my chances of winning will be even smaller.”

The world is really sober. This Queen of the Undead has really done a lot of research and preparations for hatred, and all aspects have been considered.

 “So, you are really willing to help?” Amberxiu asked expectantly.

"Of course, you gave me the life box for safekeeping, and I will always repay this trust. Moreover, I think you should have planned it well, and the reason why the accident happened is just because you are too weak."

 Amberson:…

Although what Apoptotic Rose said was a bit hurtful to her pride, Amberxiu knew it was a fact. If he hadn't forcibly used the power of the prophecy school, he would have been beaten by the alchemist riding the golem. If you can't exert the power of a demigod, there is no point in learning more things.

Amberxiu said to Apoptotic Rose very solemnly: "In this case, I'll leave it to you. Ms. Rose, please help me one more time. If I am needed in the future, I will do my best."

 “Is it free?” Apoptotic Rose asked.

Amber Xiu was silent for a long time, and then squeezed out a sentence from between his teeth: "The consultation fee is free, and other things... I can give you a discount, really a discount."

 Apoptotic Rose smiled so much that its branches trembled, and its long hair was spread down, giving it a different kind of beauty.

But this can't shake Amber Xiu's will. No matter how beautiful it is, it's not as good as a gold coin.

　　Laughing wildly for a while, Apoptotic Rose returned to her dignified appearance and said to Amber Xiu: "Then let's get started. What do you need me to help you with now?"

"First of all, I need to know where I am? This should be your palace, right? Have you returned to the Underdark?" Ambrose asked.

"No, we are still in the Alchemy City, we are just hiding temporarily."

Amber Xiu was surprised by Apoptotic Rose's words. Didn't the Alchemy City invite this queen out? How did she hide it from everyone?

Apoptotic Rose seemed to have guessed Amber Xiu's doubts and explained: "Those alchemists who were responsible for sending me away were refined into undead by me and became my puppets. Therefore, the report received by Alchemy City It was all fake and I hid it.”

After listening to it, An Boxiu could only praise it.

 The time interval between sending the order to leave the city and reporting to the superiors should be very short. In such a short period of time, the administrators were turned into undead puppets without attracting the attention of others? How powerful is this necromancy spell?

I can only say that he is indeed a legend. Parallel imports like him cannot be compared.

Thinking about this, Amberxiu became even more eager for the wishing technique.

Amberxiu continued: "Since we are still in the city, it is more convenient. The prayer ceremony is still missing two keys. One is the legendary sacrifice. They originally wanted to sacrifice me, although I Run away, but they must have a backup plan, but for the second key, they should have no substitute, so we need to find this second key first and grab it in advance.”

“Oh, what’s the second key?” Apoptotic Rose asked with interest.

"A druid girl named Naomi Watts. She should be imprisoned somewhere in Alchemy City now. We need to find her. If I guessed correctly, she should be imprisoned somewhere in Alchemy City now. The most famous hall of wisdom in the Alchemy City.”

Apoptotic Rose repeated in confusion: "A druid? Is it the key to the wish spell?"

“I also think it’s outrageous, but my inference should be correct.”

This is not entirely inferred. In the prophecy obtained at the beginning, the Druid girl suddenly appeared in the prophecy. Amber Xiu couldn't figure out at the time what relationship this girl had with the destruction of Alchemy City.

It wasn't until he saw the map drawn by the Apoptotic Rose and the true and false information on the tower that he pieced everything together.

 “What’s so special about this Druid?” Apoptotic Rose asked.

Amberxiu did not hide anything and expressed his biggest guess: "She is most likely a blood relative of the president of the Alchemist Council, and she is also the most important and irreplaceable sacrifice."
