This Lich Needs More Money

Chapter 95 Height is one meter, aura is two meters

The vast yellow sand reflects a golden color under the sunlight.

 This is the unique golden gravel of the Salokma Desert. It looks like real gold, so Salokma is also known as the Land of Gold.

But this is only because many years ago, a legendary mage used the legendary spell of World Weaving on Salokma, which modified the atmosphere of this dead desert, so that after the sun sets, a golden glow will be left on the sand. color.

 And this is just for the sake of looking good.

 Sand is just sand after all. Outside the Salokma area, it is no different from other ordinary sand.

And because the desert is too dazzling during the day, the residents here have to wear special sunglasses, otherwise they will be completely blind in a few minutes in the golden desert.

Deep underground in this golden desert, there are countless maze-like underground tombs, which are rumored to be traces of the previous civilization.

Even though Salokma has been exploring these underground tombs for hundreds of years, he has still only dug out the tip of the iceberg, but the ancient civilization heritage dug out from them is enough for Salokma to live a stable and prosperous life.

 It can be said that the economy of the entire Salokma dwarf kingdom is based on digging graves.

 Hence, what this group of desert dwarves are best at is digging pits, digging holes, cracking seals, dispelling magic traps, etc... However, these abilities are somewhat insufficient on the frontal battlefield.

Facing the iron cavalry of the Lion Empire, the desert dwarves' defenses were not much stronger than paper.

Those paladins who chanted the Holy Light, under the banner of liberating human slaves, have been pressing Salokma to the ground and rubbing him for many years.

 What makes the desert dwarves even more helpless is that this group of religious lunatics showed enough patience.

Someone once suggested to the dwarf king to show weakness to the enemy, lure the Lion Empire to go deep alone, and then use the advantages of the desert environment to drag down and kill the opponent. As a result, the people of the Lane Empire were fighting, but they were not aggressive at all. Start preaching after conquering a city. The believers of the Lord of the Dawn will never march rashly again until all the city has become believers.

　　The bait placed in front of you is one that you can bear not to eat.

They seem to have guessed the dwarves' plan a long time ago, so they have been training in the desert cities on the border over the years. It seems that they need to train a team of paladins that are fully adapted to the desert environment before they can strike a winning blow.

Facing an enemy that is both invincible and incapable of making mistakes, this golden country fell into a slow death. Although the Lion Empire advances very slowly, every step is taken so steadily. Now even if they give up all the cities they conquered, the Kingdom of Gold may not be able to take it back because the people's hearts have long since changed.

 In this case, the dwarf king had to change his policy and began a century-long integration plan.

 Any non-human race can receive equal civil rights in the Golden Kingdom, including the undead who are mostly racially discriminated against. As long as you are willing to abide by the laws of the Golden City, you can survive in this land.

It was in this environment that Huggie Stone became a legal citizen of the Golden City again.

 In the depths of a certain underground tomb, two scarlet lights lit up. Under the weak candlelight, a face with strong lines could be seen. Huggie Stone is different from those feminine vampires. His facial features are like marble sculptures, and his eyes are deep and majestic.

Heggy Stone ordered to the orc kneeling in front of him: "Come here, my breakfast."

 The strong orc walked closer step by step with dull eyes. Huggie Stone stood up slowly, his majestic body wrapped in a long cloak and looking at least two meters tall.

But when he moved forward, the outline of his two feet was exposed where his belly should be.

Hodge Stone was one meter tall and hung one and a half meters in the air. He walked up to this orc who was really two meters tall and bit his neck.

 After taking a few hard sips, Huggie Stone threw the orc aside in disgust.

“I’m an orc every day, can’t I have a different taste?” Huggie Stone said unhappily.

In the darkness, two dwarf servants came out and said in a panic: "Master, if you are not an orc, it will be difficult to find a virgin."

 “Well, when it comes to war, moral standards get lower and lower.”

Huggy Stone sighed, they vampires actually prefer peaceful times. With a large population, there are many sources of food. When war comes, a large number of people die, and most of the leftover food is not delicious.

Although he was disgusted, Huggie Stone also understood that his servants had tried their best. The general environment was not good and no matter how hard they tried, they could not change it.

Hooky Stone wiped the remaining blood on his mouth and said to his servants: "Are the gargoyles I asked you to prepare ready?"

 Speaking of this, the corners of Huggie Stone's mouth couldn't help but twitch.

What is the relationship between the new boy and the Queen of Roses? Three sentences made him bleed.

The most worthy gargoyle. He didn't even have a hundred gargoyles in his inventory, but he had to give away twenty. His heart ached like a wooden stake slowly piercing his heart, and it was pulling back and forth between being stabbed to death and not being stabbed to death. .

But Huggie Stone didn’t dare refuse.

The Queen of Roses spoke, and he really didn't dare not listen.

This also made Huggie Stone couldn't help but wonder what the relationship between this newcomer and the Queen of Roses was, so that this aloof Queen could be so arrogant. Not only did Heggie Stone not dare to neglect, he was even more curious about Umberto.

 Open the Code of the Undead and prepare to send a message to Amber Xiu to ask him to pay for some shipping costs. The gargoyle is a large object, and the cost of transporting it is not small. If you can recover some damage, you can recover it.

As a result, before he could send a message, Amberxiu sent him a private message first.

[Ultraman Tiga: Senior, do you have anything to do with the desert dwarves? I have captured a few Twilight Guards from the high elves here. I wonder if the desert dwarves are interested? 】

 Hey, the elves have already taken action directly?

Heki Stone was a little surprised. According to the intelligence, the elves should still be gathering troops. This newcomer should be in the center of the Alchemy City. How could he encounter the elves' troops at this time?

　　【Don’t like humans: What’s going on? The elves came to your door? I do have some connections with the desert dwarves, but they are all like stone. You can't give them false news, otherwise they will never trade with you. 】

Hodge Stone is still worried about Amber Xiu selling false information. The undead are capable of anything.

　　【Ultraman Tiga: Don't worry, I've recorded this, you can take a look. 】

Accepting Amber's request to send it, Heki Stone saw a memory crystal emerging from the Code of the Undead.

I opened the image of the memory crystal and saw that it was indeed the twilight guards of the elves, twelve in total.

Hucky Stone had to take a different look at Amberxiu's strength. The Twilight Guards were the elite of the elves. It was not difficult to defeat them, but it was very difficult to capture so many of them alive.

 “Are all the newbies today so powerful?”

Heki Stone sighed in his heart, and then quickly replied to Amber Xiu: [No problem, I will help you communicate with the desert dwarves. I believe they are very interested in the elves. 】

　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　ous thanks on the help, senior, I will be responsible for the shipping of the gargoyles. 】

　　【I don’t like humans: Brother, you are so cool. 】

Hodge Stone just replied to this sentence, and suddenly felt something was wrong. As for the freight, haven't you already prepared to discuss it with Amber Xiu and let him pay for it?

Why did I pay a favor as a matchmaker, and the shipping fee was waived? Isn't this a favor in vain?

Did this new guy accurately calculate that he would have to pay for freight, so he used this trick to block it in advance?

"No way, it can't be so outrageous? I must be too worried." Huggie Stone comforted himself.

But it doesn’t matter if you lose money on Amberxiu’s side, he is a middleman. He still had to negotiate with the desert dwarves about how much these elves would cost, and there was still a lot of room for bargaining about the price difference.

 After calming down a little, Heggy Stone discussed the deal between the gargoyles and elves with Amberxiu, and finalized some of the details. Only then did Heggy Stone order his servants to deliver the message.

 It is an important matter related to the elves. I believe his letter can be sent directly to the dwarf king.

Hucky Stone also had to be prepared, and he had to make a good deal to make up for the loss of these twenty matching gargoyles.

 Ambrose also felt very happy after receiving the reply from Heggie Stone.

 Sure enough, choosing the right buyer is very important. Last time he wanted to sell Alan Watson to his biological father, but he ended up attracting a group of paladins. This time selling elves to hostile forces is the real deal.

 After being happy, Amberxiu started to get busy again.

 The Porcupine Knight's order needs to be completed as soon as possible, and he needs this lord to help him become famous. Just imagine, when the Porcupine Knight uses his skeleton army to conquer territories one after another, will many people know the benefits of the Lich War Loan?

 Using undead to fight a war requires only paying gold coins, no need to consider logistics, and no need to delay construction and farming in the territory. This is the most perfect war weapon.

The more people know about it, the more people will naturally come to Amber to buy undead souls.

 The more clients there are, the more intense the battle, and the faster the undead will be consumed.

 They will continue to need more undead and more advanced units.

This is an arms race, whether you like it or not, when spending money to buy undead troops becomes a habit, everyone is forced to get involved.

 As the only undead arms dealer in the Alchemy City, Amber Xiu will receive a steady stream of gold coins.

 When he thought about this future, Amberxiu felt his soul trembling with excitement.

 Stop talking, hurry up and build the undead army. This porcupine knight is an advertising sign, and you must give him the best.

I haven’t recovered from my cold yet. I estimate it will be around 6,000 again today. As usual, there will be another update in the evening.
