This lich needs more money

"You want to discuss with that lich?" The old elf king thought he heard wrongly.

This is an internal discussion among the elves. She wants to seek consultation from the lich?

What exactly had Catherine experienced during this short journey that she would subconsciously ask this lich for advice?

"I know this is strange, but if you have spent time with him, you will understand that this person knows how to negotiate business best. He can balance the interests of all parties. I believe he can solve this problem."

Catherine and Amberxiu went out for a walk. They didn't learn anything else, but their self-knowledge improved a lot.

She finally realized that she was an unqualified leader, as naive as a little girl who had not grown up. Therefore, when encountering such a major national event, she subconsciously consulted the lich who could solve everything.

Catherine's trust in Ambrose was established after he performed miracles again and again.

This lich can make paladins kneel to him, make the Kingdom of Rage become his back garden, and can make the druids obey with just a few words... This lich must have been blessed by the gods with his mouth. Yes, he can solve anything.

The old elf king couldn't help but look at his grandson, hoping that this grandson could express his opinion. This was the opinion of an outsider. Do you still want the face of the elves?

Aldarian said without hesitation: "Okay, no problem, just do what sister Catherine said, let's go discuss it with the lich."

The old elf king was completely convinced. This grandson was hopeless.

With Ardalian's support, Catherine felt relieved.

But the question is how to contact him?

Long-distance communication has always been a big problem. Catherine does not have an artifact like the Undead Code that can communicate regardless of distance.

After hearing Catherine's question, Aldarian said directly: "It's not that simple yet. Send an urgent letter and ask him to come directly to Silvermoon Highgarden."

Inviting a lich to Silvermoon Highgarden may be the first time since Silvermoon Highgarden was established.

But the old Elf King no longer has the energy to quarrel with his grandson. Regardless of whether Aldarion's words were made up or not, what he said is true. As a person gets older and is blinded by past emotions, he is no longer able to make objective and rational judgments.

In this case, leave it to Aldarion, he is the Elf King today.

Catherine's handwritten letter was quickly delivered to Amber Xiu, and it only took an hour for Silvermoon High Court's expedited letter to be delivered to the desert regardless of the cost. But there was no way to send it directly to Amber Xiu. He could only send it to Harvey on the surface and let the young mage deliver it on his behalf.

Therefore, it had already been two hours before Amberxiu got the letter.

Fortunately, it's not dark yet.

After reading Catherine's letter, Amberxiu hesitated for a moment before deciding to go to Silvermoon Highgarden.

Arthur Lane's heroic spirit must be dealt with anyway, so let's just take this opportunity to negotiate the price with Lane.

To think that with Silvermoon Highgarden acting as the middleman, James Watson would not dare to take action against him.

Amber Xiu put on an ordinary skeleton body, then transformed into the appearance of the black-haired boy before stepping onto the teleportation array, so as not to be discriminated against by the elves with the appearance of a skull.

After several twists and turns, we finally arrived at the Silver Moon High Garden.

As soon as he came out of the teleportation array, Amber Xiu could feel the rich breath of life. Why do the elves live long and are so beautiful? In addition to racial characteristics, the living environment is very important.

Silvermoon Highgarden is filled with this kind of life breath that is beneficial to the human body. Not only do the elves live comfortably here, but humans can live to be a hundred years old without any disease or disaster.

After walking through the corridor, Amber Xiu was led by several elf girls to a gorgeous palace.

Amberxiu immediately saw Catherine. She was no different from before. She still looked stunning. Every time she met, she was so stunning that even the undead couldn't help but feel excited.

However, Amberxiu had traveled with Catherine for a while and had gained some resistance, so he was able to greet her appropriately.

Catherine was more excited than Amberxiu. After returning to Silvermoon Highgarden, she often thought of the days of adventures with Amberxiu, which were the most exciting memories of her life.

After a brief exchange of greetings, Amberxiu was taken to a small hall for receiving guests by Catherine, where the newcomer Elf King Aldarion was waiting.

The young elf king also wanted to meet Amber Xiu and wanted to know what ability he had that could make Catherine admire him so much.

However, as soon as the two met each other, Aldarian's eyes widened and his face was slightly distorted.

Aldarian's eyes widened, his face suddenly distorted, and his hands had tightly grasped the hilt of the sword at his waist, as if he was ready to kill this special guest in front of him with a sword at any time.

"It's you?!" Aldarian squeezed out these two words from between his teeth, and his resentment was so strong that even the naive Catherine noticed it.

Amberxiu looked at the young elf king strangely. The atmosphere was wrong. Was the elf planning to trick him into coming to kill him?

"Your Majesty, what are you doing?"

Catherine was about to ask for clarification, but Ardalian said: "Sister Catherine, let me chat with this lich man alone for a while. This is my very solemn request."

Although Catherine didn't know why, she rarely saw Aldarian behave like this. This matter was not simple, but Catherine could only leave temporarily.

As soon as the door to the room was closed, Aldarian walked up to Amberxiu without hesitation and stared at him regardless of etiquette.

"This...do we know each other?" Amberxiu asked strangely.

Aldarion walked up to Amberxiu with a dark face and whispered: "The Tiefling Kingdom of Unholy Ode, Red River Town..."

"Red River Town?"

Amberxiu's long-standing memory was brought back, the time before he became a lich.

At that time, the youth potion was not expensive, and one bottle could last more than thirty years.

It was also in this place that he had a battle with a drow, going from bed to under the bed, and finally killed the drow in self-defense.

This is not a big deal. If Shar hadn't said that this was Rose's divine choice, Amberxiu would have forgotten about it.

But what does this elf guy do when he mentions Red River Town? What is the relationship between drow and high elves?

"We met two hundred years ago?" Amberxiu asked.

"No, it was more than four hundred years ago!" Aldarian said with suppressed anger.

"Four hundred years... I'm sorry, I don't remember." Amber Xiu must have been very young at that time, maybe when he had just started to become a prophecy mage. It was really too long ago, and Amber Xiu really couldn't remember it. .

"You don't remember?! You told me you don't remember? I had all thirty gold coins in my possession at that time, and you cheated me of them all! I was hungry for a whole half a month!"

"Ah this..."

Amber Xiu felt a little embarrassed, it turned out that he was the fat sheep who had been tricked by him.

But even though Aldarion said it so clearly, Amberxiu still couldn't remember. I really can't remember. Amber Xiu has tricked so many people in his life. With only 30 gold coins, it's really hard to leave a place in his memory.

Compared with Amberxiu's calmness, Aldarion is completely different. My memory goes back to that time hundreds of years ago, when I was still a minor and followed my parents' example to become an adventurer.

As an elf ranger with outstanding talents, it was indeed smooth sailing at first. Just when Aldarion thought that adventure could only lead to happiness and harvest, he met the black-haired and black-eyed young man in front of him in tiefling territory.

This man looked so strange, and his facial features were not similar to those of humans in any kingdom. Aldarian immediately became curious. The communication between the two went very smoothly. After a few glasses of wine, Amber's face was flushed and his ears were hot. Amberxiu's few words made Aldarian feel like he had met his soulmate. He was simply a close friend who understood him better than his parents.

Thanks to the blessings of the elven gods, Aldarian soon saw what it means to be evil in the human heart.

Ambrose not only squandered all the gains from his adventure, but also borrowed a large sum of money in his name.

Ardalian didn't even know when he signed the IOU.

In one day, Aldarion was completely bankrupt and his reputation was ruined. He was considered by local adventurers to be an elf brat with no credibility. He must be a whitened drow pretending to be a high elf.

This was a huge insult to the elves, to the point where they could fight to the death.

But Ardalian couldn't refute that the IOU was indeed signed by him, although he didn't get a penny of the money.

In the end, Aldarion spent a month paying off the debt, and finally had to return to his parents, admitting that he had underestimated the profession of adventurer. It was also after this time that Aldarian began to become cautious. It can be said that this was his first step towards maturity, but the price was too tragic.

"Why did you lie to me! I thought you and I were friends! I thought you were my first best friend in life!"

Aldarion, the elf king, had his eyes red when he questioned Amber Xiu. That is the most cherished friendship of a pure boy.

He had remembered Amber Xiu's face for his whole life. He originally thought it was just a little experience in his youth, but now he only felt sad. Unexpectedly, after seeing Amber Xiu again, his grievance and anger did not diminish at all. He wished he could kill the lich in front of him with a sword now!

Listening to Aldarion's detailed account of his experience of being cheated, Amberxiu also slowly remembered part of the content.

Amberxiu explained with a wry smile: "Your Majesty, I remembered. Maybe it seemed to you that an elf had a pleasant chat with a human, but in my opinion, you were the one with evil intentions at that time. "

"Why do I have bad intentions?" Aldarian asked angrily.

"Do you remember what you said in the first sentence? You said that my clothes are in tatters and I must be miserable. You also said that you can protect me if I mess with you. Be reasonable and take risks. Everyone knows that this means that you are going to find an idiot to be cannon fodder!"

Amber is also very particular about how to cheat people. Generally, I won't offend others unless they offend me.

Aldarion was a well-known adventurer at the time, and as an elf, he was naturally arrogant. When he chatted with Amber Xiu, he naturally spoke like a superior.

Aldarion was inexperienced, but Amberxiu was not. He already had many years of adventure experience at that time.

A seemingly famous adventurer said to a complete stranger, "Fuck with me and I'll protect you", and his attitude was particularly domineering. There is only one explanation for this, he needs a cannon fodder or a fat sheep.

An Boxiu has seen this kind of person too many times, and he decisively chose to compromise, and then stole his money and ran away.

He couldn't remember the specific details, but anyway, it was just an embellishment on his adventure.

Who would have thought that an elf he had deceived would now become the elf king?

Amberxiu couldn't help but think of his magnificent life. The first teacher in his life was the God of Alchemy, the random drow he killed was Rose's chosen one, and the random elf ranger he cheated with was the current Elf King... Amber Xiudu began to wonder if the Silver Moon Knight also had a grudge against him when he was young, but he just forgot about it.

What a damn fate!

However, Amberxiu did not feel guilty at all, and instead said to Aldarian confidently: "Your Majesty, four hundred years ago, you were an adventurer, and I was also an adventurer. It may have been a misunderstanding at that time, but I only had one life.

"As an insignificant person, I worry about saving my life all the time. Maybe I didn't investigate clearly at the time. If you really want to care about it, I can say sorry to you.

"But if I had it to do over again, I would still do it. Because I can't confirm whether your so-called good intentions hide malice. This is the daily life of adventurers."

This is the sadness at the bottom. At that time, Amber Xiu was just a passerby who might be exposed in the wilderness at any time. Perhaps there have been countless such misunderstandings in this life, but it is precisely because of Amberxiu's cautious and alert attitude that he has survived until now.

This is his past sin, he will not deny it, but he will not feel guilty either. As a person at the bottom, many times there is no choice at all.

If this Elf King really wanted to pursue the case... Amber Xiu wouldn't mind blowing himself up again. Anyway, it's easy for him to change his body now.

After hearing Amberxiu's apology, Aldarian was silent for a long time, and then said to Amberxiu: "You are right, adventurers are like this. I only learned this truth later. But this time, don't If you want me to be on your side, I will try my best to help Ryan so that your heroic spirit cannot be sold at a good price."

Since political excuses are not important, naturally your own emotions are more important.

Aldarion decisively chose to retaliate harshly. He would make Amber Xiu suffer a loss until he vomited blood in order to avenge the thirty gold coins that year.

Amber Xiu looked at the still young Elf King and chuckled in his heart.

When it comes to business negotiations, he is unrivaled!
