This lich needs more money

Amber Xiu looked at the radiant scroll in front of him, thinking that this might be the most precious treasure in the world.

But Amberxiu was not too excited, but asked calmly: "Since you have this scroll, why don't you just resurrect Arthur? The reward for me, a lich, can be anything."

The Lord of the Morning asked, "Which Arthur should be resurrected?"

Amberxiu was stunned for a moment, and then realized that Arthur Lane himself and his heroic spirit theoretically belong to two lives.

"Justice cannot be measured by numerical values. Arthur Lane, who saved the world for the first time, is worthy of being resurrected with this scroll, as is his heroic spirit. I cannot judge which Arthur is the right one to resurrect, so my priesthood does not allow it. I make a choice."

The Lord of the Dawn's words left Amber Xiu speechless. What kind of god's trolley problem was this?

But this seems to be correct. Amber Xiu still remembers a story he read about a brother and sister. The younger sister was bullied and developed another personality. She could only stay at home and could not go out, and was afraid of everything. character. The older brother personally took care of his younger sister for many years, until one day, the younger sister recovered from her illness and finally returned to her original cheerful personality.

However, the memory of being taken care of all these years disappeared, and the personality of the well-behaved sister who was always afraid to hide at home also disappeared.

Everyone was congratulating their sister for recovering from her illness. Only the brother knew that he saved one sister but lost the other.

Some things may seem pretentious to outsiders, but only those who have experienced them personally understand that they are different.

Just like Amber Xiu doesn't want to "let go of the past" no matter how painful it is, in the eyes of the Lord of the Dawn, Arthur and Arthur's heroic spirit are both equally noble souls, and resurrecting one seems unfair to the other.

Under the influence of the priesthood, the Lord of the Morning was unable to make this decision... As a result, he threw this thing to Amber Xiu.

"Great God, even you can't make a decision. Why do you think I, a mortal, can do better?" Amberxiu paused and added: "To be honest, although I admire Ya "Yes, but he may not be in the top five on my resurrection list."

The Lord of Dawn didn't seem surprised, and asked with a smile: "Who is first in line?"

Amberxiu said without hesitation: "Of course it's me. I will send this scroll to the Kingdom of the God of Alchemy. If anything happens to me, I will ask my teacher to resurrect me."

Amber Xiu has never concealed her selfishness. No matter what, she will always come first.

The Lord of the Dawn said nonchalantly: "Then let's do it. Since this is something that belongs to you, you can deal with it according to your own wishes."

The Lord of the Dawn was so generous that Amberxiu found it incredible.

He had always felt that the Lord of the Dawn was a hypocrite. On the surface, he was great and upright, but in fact, he was the kind of character who put interests first. There is no way. Due to the influence of the previous life, the Guangming Cult is 99% the villain in the story.

"However, this thing is not completely without side effects, right? Although I try very hard to throw away everything about fate, premonitions always emerge uncontrollably. My intuition tells me that this thing is very precious, but it is also very dangerous."

In Amber Xiu's eyes, this glittering scroll seemed to contain a bloody storm. As long as he stretched out his hands, he would be immediately involved.

The Lord of the Dawn said approvingly: "The world always thinks you are greedy, but often when you should be greedy the most, you are calmer than anyone else. But don't worry, I won't let you take you away before you are ready. This scroll. The side effects you mentioned do not come from this scroll, and Io's blessing will not be discounted at all.

"Whether you want to resurrect a mortal, a god, or a hero who has fallen in ancient times, this scroll can do it. You don't need to pay any price, and even the name is not necessary. If If you want to resurrect the original Mystra, you don't need to know her real name, just write down the original goddess of magic.

"So, now you understand what the real side effects are?"

Amberxiu thought for a moment, and then said: "I understand, this thing is not only a life-saving talisman for mortals, but also for gods. This scroll is in your hand. No one dares to snatch it, but if it falls into the hands of a mortal like me, All the gods will try to fight for me. I will be crushed to pieces by the power of countless gods."

The Lord of the Dawn nodded. It saves time to chat with a smart mortal like Amber Xiu.

"Although what you said is a bit exaggerated, it's probably true. If it weren't for your special situation now, I wouldn't have given this scroll to you, because it would be murder. But your situation is very special, maybe you can keep this scroll. "

The Lord of the Dawn was really frank enough, but Amberxiu finally reached out and picked up the scroll.

There is no doubt that this is the most precious thing in the world and nothing else can replace it.

Amberxiu had no reason to refuse.

The Lord of the Dawn nodded to Amber Xiu, and then reminded: "Since you choose to accept it, I believe you are prepared, but I still want to remind you one thing, Cyric has already set his sights on you, although I don’t know the specific reason yet, but the madman is brewing a huge conspiracy that may involve all of his enemies.”

"Cyric? Prince of Lies?!"

This was not the first time that Amberxiu had heard of this name. The mist lady Leila had said before that she hoped that Amberxiu could help him kill this god.

But Amberxiu refused at that time. Xirik was a powerful god. Ordinary gods did not dare to fight him. Amberxiu was just a mortal. How could he kill this god?

Later, Amberxiu used the dark priesthood to resurrect Leila, which was barely a repayment for the favor of borrowing the dream barrier.

Since then, Amberxiu has never had any intersection with the prince of lies.

When Xirik was mentioned, the Lord of the Dawn, who had always been calm, finally showed a little disgust.

"This madman has been eyeing you for a long time, or it should be said that he has been targeting Jaeger. You should be very clear about the relationship between Xirik and the god of death, right?" The Lord of the Dawn asked.

"I heard a little that Xirik once shared the authority of the god of death." Amberxiu said modestly.

According to the stories circulating in the market, Cyric is hated by gods and ghosts. His enemies include Lathander, Lord of Dawn, Oghma, Lord of Knowledge, Mystra, Goddess of Magic, Kelemvor, God of Death, Tyr, God of Justice and other gods.

These gods have one thing in common, powerful divine power is standard, and there are also super-powerful divine powers such as Mystra and Oghma.

With this power added up, Talos has to retreat.

But Cyric is alive and well, which shows the ability of this Prince of Lies.

It is precisely because the Prince of Lies is so powerful that Ambers refused Leila's request without hesitation. It is more difficult to kill the Prince of Lies than to become a powerful god himself.

"Cyric is a lunatic, but his previous madness was traceable. His behavior has become extremely abnormal recently. You were once a member of the Mourning Poetry Society, and the most important one. He has been targeting you for a long time. Now that you have accepted this resurrection scroll of Io, he will definitely target you more crazily."

Amber Xiu said doubtfully: "Ah? It sounds like it's not just because the scroll is precious. Does Cyric need this scroll to resurrect someone important?"

The Lord of Dawn was silent for a moment, and then said to Amber Xiu: "Cyric... He thinks he is Io, or an existence above Io. Therefore, anything related to Io will be targeted by him, snatched away, and then destroyed."

Amber Xiu's eyes almost popped out when he heard this.

"How could he think he was Io? Wouldn't Io slap him to death?" Amber Xiu asked in surprise.

It doesn't matter if mortals scold Io. There are no mortals in the eyes of the gods. Mortals are not even as good as ants, and are completely air. Because among all the things created by the God of Gods, mortals are just one of them.

But the gods would never dare to do that, because Io is watching you at any time.

Once a fool angered Io, and as a result, all the gods were severely punished. Billions of gods were demoted to mortals and thrown into the mortal world to play battle royale. During that turbulent era, I don’t know how many gods fell.

This is the wrath of Io.

What confidence does Xirik have to dare to be on an equal footing with Io?

“Is the power of the Prince of Lies so strong?” Amber asked.

The Lord of the Dawn said disdainfully: “Of course not, He is just a rat in the gutter, who is particularly good at hiding.”

“Then why?”

“I don’t know, but Io doesn’t seem to care about his blasphemy, maybe he just doesn’t bother to bother with a real madman.”

The Lord of the Dawn couldn’t answer this question either. The gods are not omniscient and omnipotent, let alone Io’s thoughts, which this God of Gods can never guess.

Amber was speechless. Was this God of Gods broad-minded or just lazy?

"But no matter how crazy he is, he would not think of himself as Io, is there any explanation for this?" Amber asked.

This is a secret between gods, and Amber felt that he was about to hear some earth-shattering secret.

The Lord of Dawn had no intention of hiding it from his mortal enemy, and said with a hint of sarcasm: "Aren't you familiar with that Kuo-Tao fish goddess? Didn't that Kuo-Tao fish goddess also claim to be an ancient god, mastering ancient magic that is more powerful than the goddess of magic? The same is true for Xirik, but he just believed it.

"It's just that Bribodup was born from the madness of the Kuo-Tao fish, so it's not surprising that he became a madman. Xirik's madness is entirely due to himself. Have you heard of the "Xirui Sutra"? "

As if his ears heard extremely resistant words, Amber felt a burning sensation in his soul.

"What is this? Just hearing it makes me feel very uncomfortable. "

The Lord of Dawn explained: "A scripture written by Xirik himself. He tried to use this scripture to turn all mortals and gods into his fanatics. To some extent, he succeeded. Even if a real god is not strong enough, he will be brainwashed by Xirik after reading this scripture, and completely become his fanatic, and regard him as the supreme god of all things in the world.

"If a mortal reads it, he will be permanently mentally corrupted. Even if you resist the hypnosis of this scripture, your mind will be severely damaged and become a retard. Only prayer can repair this damage.

"Because the content of this book is so evil, Ogma had to write a book called "The True Biography of Xirik" himself to use his own divine power to offset the influence of "The Book of Xirui".

"But if you read "The Book of Xirui" before reading "The True Biography of Xirui", then Ogma cannot save the mortals brainwashed by this evil scripture."

Amber Xiu felt himself breaking out in a cold sweat when he heard this.

What kind of horrible thing is this? Even the devil can't come up with something so outrageous.

Even the gods can be hypnotized. This "Ciri Book" is really weird.

The Lord of Knowledge Ogma hates this kind of evil knowledge that destroys the balance of the world the most. No wonder he is a mortal enemy of Xi Rui.

However, after talking about this, Amber Xiu still didn't understand what this had to do with Xi Rui becoming a madman... Wait, the gods who have read the "Ciri Book" will also regard Xi Rui as the Supreme God?

Amber Xiu asked in shock: "Xi Rui read this book himself, and then... he was also brainwashed?"

When asking this question, Amber Xiu felt that he was crazy.

It's like the Lord of Dawn was burned by the holy light, the God of Alchemy drank the potion and was poisoned, and the Goddess of Magic threw a small fireball to blow up her hair... These all sound outrageous.

However, the Lord of Dawn cast an approving look at Amber Xiu.

"Yes, you are indeed much smarter than ordinary mortals. Xi Rui also read this book, and then he was brainwashed. When he created this "Xi Rui Book", he wanted to turn all gods into his fanatics, so even gods with powerful divine power would be affected by the "Xi Rui Book".

"It's just that he used too much force, so that he couldn't resist the hypnosis of this book. Therefore, Xi Rui believed that he was Io, and even the existence above Io. He also believed that all gods were puppets created by him and were acting according to his orders. "

After listening to the explanation of the Lord of Dawn, Amber Xiu didn't know what to say to describe this prince of lies.

This is the so-called highest level of lying-even believing it yourself!

"So, I have to face a powerful divine power that regards itself as the Supreme God, and the scroll in my hand is still very attractive to Xi Rui. "

Amberxiu finally understood why the Lord of Dawn repeatedly emphasized the danger of this thing, and also understood why he felt the bloody storm on this scroll.

If he was targeted by Xirik, He would really do everything to deal with him.

Moreover, this guy thought he was the Supreme God, so when He played dirty tricks, He might not pay attention to Io's rules. It's hard to say whether Io would beat him to death at that time, but Amberxiu himself would definitely be hit hard.

Amberxiu hurriedly looked at the man emitting endless holy light, and said excitedly: "Great Lord of Dawn, you won't watch Xirik deal with me, an upright and kind mortal, right?"

"Hahaha!" The Lord of Dawn laughed heartily, and then said: "This is why I came to you. I will give you the protection of the holy light, and I will also help you deal with Xirik. But, I haven't figured out Xirik's purpose yet.

"In the past, He just tried to play the role of the clown of the Supreme God, and at least his various behaviors were traceable, but recently, He seems to be much calmer. His madness is no longer so superficial, and his behavior is becoming more and more difficult to understand. I suspect that Xirik may be recovering his sanity.

"Mortal, this is our common enemy. I hope you can help figure out the situation of Xirik. As long as we catch a flaw in Him, I, Tyr, Ogma, Mistra and Kelemvor will take action to completely put an end to this madman. "

Amber Xiu frowned and said, "How can I have such ability?"

The Lord of Dawn said very solemnly: "You have, because only you are considered the successor of the Prince of Lies. Now all you lack is an opportunity. If your lies can fool Xirik, then His priesthood will completely lose its power, and He will never be able to hide in the shadows again.

"Be more confident, your ability to lie has been verified by many gods, right?"

Amber Xiu: ...

Why does the Lord of Dawn sound like a curse?

However, since Xirik has been eyeing him for a long time, Amberxiu can't just sit there and wait for death.

He will never let go of this resurrection scroll of Io, the prince of lies, right? It depends on who can deceive whom.

But before that, Amberxiu needs to understand the past of this prince of lies.

I heard that Xirik was also a god of death?

It seems that it is time to go back to talk to Jaeger. Jaeger should also give an explanation for the fact that he was kicked out of the mourning poetry club.
