This lich needs more money

A massive demonic invasion of hell ended in an incredible way.

The great, wise, and insightful Archduke the Deceiver was victorious once again, as he had been in every bet before.

The demon lord was repulsed, and there were no more demons on the Blood River battlefield. Instead, there was an army of millions of undead permanently stationed on the tributaries of the Styx.

With the defeat of the demons, Hell is holding a meeting to discuss whether to build this place into a permanent residence, which can be regarded as expanding the territory of Hell.

Unless something unexpected happens, there will be no results from this meeting within a hundred years.

When there is no external pressure, the internal fighting among devils is ten thousand times more serious than that of mortals.

However, after this battle, both gods and mortals had to be attracted by the rising star.

The rise of the Deceiver Archduke is already a certainty. He has won the priesthood of Cyric. In addition to this unique live broadcast, with the blessing of the will of all living beings, he can directly become a god even as a mortal.

It has never been played like this before. The first person to eat the crab can get the most benefits.

Everyone is guessing to what extent the power of the Demon Archduke will expand. The powerful divine power is only the most basic. Some people have speculated that the Deceiver has become the most powerful Demon Archduke in Hell, which may be enough to compete with the Lord of Hell, Asmoti. Si said goodbye.

The rise of such a god from the evil camp forced Heaven Mountain to take it seriously.

As the Lord of the Dawn, who was cooperating with Amber Xiu, was also busy, Lathander was urged to find out what the Deceiver Archduke's next plans were.

It's not just the angels in heaven who go to hell, the devils also don't mind rushing into the mountains of heaven to play massacre.

Even if he doesn't invade Paradise Mountain directly, the cunningness of this deceiver prince is enough to make all the gods nervous. What if he has any dissatisfaction and digs a few holes for the gods?

The Lord of the Dawn was originally immersed in the joy of defeating Cyric, his old enemy, but when the other gods said this, he became nervous.

This is not the random mortal that he was, but a great being who is on an equal footing with the gods.

When he was still a mortal, Amber Xiu had tricked so many gods to death. Now that he has firmly established himself as the Devil's Archduke, it would be really scary if he really planned to harm the gods.

There is also the recently resurrected goddess of destiny, who is not to be underestimated. But after chatting with Amber Xiu, the goddess disappeared. There was no news from anyone, so everyone didn't care about it for the time being.

Although the Lord of the Dawn is a representative of light and integrity, he is not stupid. He will not really go to hell to find Amber Xiu for tea. Instead, he will take a roundabout way and find the God of Alchemy first to inquire about the news.

However, the Lord of Dawn discovered that Amber Xiu had been waiting in the kingdom of the God of Alchemy for a long time.

And the Lord of the Dawn is not the first guest to queue up for a meeting.

The God of Alchemy poured a cup of tea for the Lord of Dawn and said helplessly: "My student has been a little busy recently. Demons are looking for him, elves are looking for him, undead are looking for him, and a bunch of goddesses are looking for him, even you. This guy from Paradise Mountain is also looking for Him. Now this kid is so arrogant that he doesn’t even respect my teacher.”

The Lord of Dawn smiled bitterly, he didn't expect such a big change in such a short period of time.

Two or three years ago, the Devil Archduke was just a mortal, just one of the names on the Lane Empire's wanted list.

However, in this short period of time, the Lord of the Dawn watched this mortal turn his hands into clouds and turn his hands into rain, all the way to where he is now. The speed was so fast that even the gods found it incredible.

This is not the era when Io gets angry and lets mortals and gods play battle royale together. It is too difficult for mortals to become gods.

At this moment, Amber Xiu, who was watched by the gods, was sitting aside, drinking tea and chatting with three friends whom he had not seen for a long time.

They are the goddesses who have just successfully completed the trinity promotion ceremony.

The Elf Queen Catherine, the Misty Lady Lyra, and now the God of Freedom Aige.

Catherine has not changed much. She is as stunning as when she first met her. Even though she became the racial god of the drow, she has not been tainted by the beliefs of these drows. Instead, she constantly reverses the vicious nature of the drows with her pure soul.

Amberxiu now understands why the elves and gods treat Catherine so favorably. Looking back after becoming a god, Catherine's soul is crystal clear and a truly flawless treasure. Only such a pure soul can withstand the mental pollution of drow elves. .

After a long separation, Catherine's first words were: "Sorry, I thought you were really dead and cried for several days."

Amberxiu explained a few words helplessly. If he hadn't become a god, he would really not dare to see Catherine again, otherwise he would lose his soul after just one look at her.

Catherine is always easy to coax, and she won't be angry after a few words of explanation.

As for Laila's old friend, Amber Sue is even simpler.

"Laila, I promise you, I will send Cyric to you."

Amberxiu took out a crystal ball, and what was sealed inside was Cyric who had become a mortal.

Laila took the crystal ball with trembling hands and looked at Cyric who seemed to be still talking inside. She was so excited that she couldn't speak.

He had waited too long for this day.

The feeling of being pierced by a sharp sword was still so clear, and even the details of Cyric's betrayal resurfaced before his eyes.

Cyric was still struggling, opening his mouth to say something.

Amberxiu reminded: "Although he is already a mortal, the power of language can never be ignored, Laila, you should know it very well."

Laila suddenly smiled and said to Amber Xiu: "Of course I know, you are the best example."

While talking and laughing, Laila seeped her divine power into the crystal ball, turning Cyric inside into a ball of smoke.

From this moment on, Cyric's body and soul were completely shattered.

Unless someone can get the resurrection scroll given by Io, not even the God of Death can resurrect him.

The trivial matter between the two old friends was settled, and Amberxiu was ready to get straight to the point.

"Three of you, first of all, congratulations on your successful promotion. I won't ask more about the Trinity Goddess. However, the reason why we are here together today should not only be to reminisce about old times. What are the plans of the Elf God King and the Oak Father? , I think I am qualified to ask now.”

The three goddesses Catherine, Lyla and Aegeo may be insignificant in themselves, but the power behind them cannot be underestimated.

Needless to say about the elven gods, Amber Xiu doesn't even have the confidence to directly receive an arrow from Corellon, and Corellon is not the only one among the elven gods. The Oak Father, who had always been a loner, rarely took Laila under his wing, and then pushed him out to cooperate with the elves. He was obviously prepared.

There is only Ai Ge, who seems to have no background, but Ai Ge is a member of the Mourning Poets Society. If you really count, Ai Ge's backstage is Yeager, and even Amber Xiu, the devil, can be considered Ai Ge's backstage.

The three goddesses were promoted at the same time, and the three shared their divine power to form a single priesthood.

What the specifics look like may need to be kept secret, but why they want to cooperate, Amber Xiu needs to inquire carefully.

Neither Catherine nor Laila spoke, but Aige, who had been silent, explained: "This is actually the elves and gods asking for help. Corellon captured Rose again, but many of Rose's men ran away. But Corellon's son Velen ran away, oh, and Corellon's grandson... Anyway, the elves mean to either do nothing or solve this problem completely. "

Amberxiu understood now and said in surprise: "The elves and gods still want to expedition into the abyss to catch these escaped sons and grandsons? No wonder they need allies."

The abyss is very dangerous. Even if you are as strong as Corellon, you will die in it if you are attacked by a large number of demon lords. The Father of Oak is undoubtedly a powerful helper. Although I don't know why Silvanus wants to help the elves, I think it is just an exchange of interests, and there is no need to delve into the reason.

Ai Ge continued to explain: "Yes, the elves need allies, and the Father of Oak is one of them, and you are the elves' second choice. The Elf God King sees it very far, and it seems that you are still a mortal. I knew you would become a very important person. I am just an excuse. The elves hope to get help from you, Yeager, and the God of Death."

After Ai Ge said this, she couldn't help laughing at herself.

In the mortal world, He is the overlord of the sea, but in the eyes of gods, He is just a middleman.

But no matter what the elves think of themselves, Ai Ge also got what he wanted.

With the protection of the elves and a test from Io, the final reward is a perfect resurrection scroll.

Ai Ge doesn't know how much the elves have contributed to this matter, but Corellon must have helped, otherwise Ai Ge, the little god of freedom, may not be able to let Io give him this opportunity.

The hope of resurrecting his father is right in front of him, and Ai Ge feels that everything else is unimportant.

Next, Catherine briefly explained the elves' plan.

If you want to expedition into the abyss, Hell's help is absolutely indispensable. Amberxiu is naturally an important part, and the elves are also ready. No matter what requirements Amberxiu makes, he will try his best to satisfy them.

After hearing this, Amber Xiu said with some embarrassment: "If I really have the final say in hell, then I will be happy to help. However, I am afraid that the Lord of Hell will not agree. I invaded with the undead army before Abyss, there is still a war. Hell has been arguing about this matter for a long time. The Lord of Hell recently found me and asked me to stay calm for a while and clean up the mess in Hell. "

Catherine asked curiously: "What a mess, didn't you perfectly block the invasion of demons? There is nothing to lose in hell, right?"

"I printed too much money. Inflation in the Nine Hells is extremely serious. In the past, one or two soul coins could be exchanged for a devil as a slave. Now the price has risen to half a million. There are already three devils in the Nine Hells. The Grand Duke is on the verge of bankruptcy, and if I don’t go back to solve this problem, the devils will start a civil war. Therefore, the most I can do is provide some intelligence support, and it is impossible to directly send troops to help.”

Amber Xiu didn't tell any lies this time. He had really met the Lord of Hell. Even though he was already a powerful god, there was still a big gap between him and Asmodeus.

And Asmodeus also cherished talents like Amber Xiu. Even if he sent the whole hell into the whirlpool of economic crisis, Asmodeus did not punish Amber Xiu, but just asked him to clean up the trouble by himself.

Although Amberxiu did not fully agree to cooperate, he at least promised not to hold back the elves.

This promise also carries enough weight, and the elves can finally feel at ease.

After bidding farewell to these three goddesses, Amberxiu received the Lord of the Morning with the same courtesy and gave the exact same answer.

Amberxiu said bluntly to the Lord of the Dawn: "Don't worry that I will rack my brains to deal with Heaven Mountain, I have no interest."

The Lord of the Dawn felt a little relieved after hearing this, but couldn't help but ask: "There are hundreds of millions of devils in your hell, and you are a veritable fraud. It is normal for Heaven Mountain to be worried. You might as well follow me Tell the truth, the newly appointed Grand Duke of Deceiver, what are your plans?"

Amberxiu said with a smile: "You always think of me too positively, but in fact I have been forced to get to where I am today. Now I am finally relaxed. All I want to do is be a prisoner in hell." A waste that you can enjoy all day long.”

The Lord of Dawn didn't really believe what Amberxiu said, but since Amberxiu said so, the Lord of Dawn couldn't continue to ask questions.

Their identities are different, and if they continue to press, it will be like forcing Amber Xiu to fall out.

But whether it's true or not, at least Amberxiu expressed his intention to not cause trouble, so Paradise Mountain doesn't need to be so nervous.

After all, this great deceiver has the advantage that no matter how much he conceals, what comes out of his mouth is always the truth.

Everyone agrees on this, and all people and gods who don't believe are in bad luck.

The devil called the fraudster is the most honest devil. This sentence spread and became the most hellish joke in hell.

After talking about the most important thing, the Lord of the Morning asked again: "What about Zariel's arrangements..."

Amberxiu said: "If you are willing to accept it, I can release him now. However, doesn't your Paradise Mountain not allow him to enter?"

"As long as He understands his mistakes and sincerely corrects them."

Amberxiu shook his head and said: "Lathander, we can be considered friends, and I will tell you something that comes from my heart. It's time to change the rules of your Paradise Mountain. You know why the devils in hell are always There are so many people, why can’t they all die?”

The Lord of the Dawn frowned, feeling that what the devil said next would be very scary.

"Because there are too many sinners?"

Amberxiu shook his head and said, "It's because the standards for sinners are too broad. Not believing in God is a sin. Believing in God and not being pious enough is also a sin. Believing in God is pious enough, but making sacrifices is also a sin... There are so many hells. Sinners, the temptation of the devil only accounts for a small part, and the more reason is that the definition of sinners in the heavens and the world is too vague.

"It is also a sin for a starving child to steal a piece of bread, but if there is a god willing to forgive him, he can go to the Kingdom of God. If not, then he will go to hell. Even worse, he can be directly hung on the wall of the unbelievers. Completely disappeared. Oh my God, this devil in me feels outrageous.

"The lawful good camp is always indifferent to the suffering of mortals, euphemistically calling it a test of their will and character, but do you think you are Io? The world was not created by you. It is a bit of a test without giving it. Shameless. Because of this harsh requirement, your Heavenly Mountain is indeed full of upright and kind heroes, but it has also caused countless ordinary people to go to hell.

"Instead of worrying about whether I will bring the devil to Heaven Mountain to cause trouble for you, it is better to think about how to send fewer people to hell. You have done well enough, and those evil gods have long since perished due to lack of believers."

The Lord of the Dawn is thoughtful, but this rule that has existed for thousands of years is not easy to change.

It's not necessarily like Amber Xiu said that just making changes will lead to better development.

However, Amber Xiu was not prepared to talk too much with the Lord of the Dawn. After seeing off the guests, he said hello to his teacher and returned to hell.

Zariel's bronze palace has been renovated by Umber, making it similar to his castle in the mortal world, but the environment inside was decorated by Apoptotic Rose herself.

After reincarnation, Apoptotic Rose regained many of her hobbies as a girl. She piled up a lot of chivalry novels at home, and forced Huggie Stone, the vampire, to update every day. She also forced the vampire to hire many popular people, specializing in Write a novel for Her Majesty the Queen.

Melina also simply settled in hell, wandering around with her army of demons every day, grabbing the territory if any demon didn't like it. All the demons in Avernus knew that this was the daughter of the Grand Duke of Deceiver, so they could only Let it be ravaged.

Amber Xiu sat on the golden throne in the big library, with an unstoppable smile on his face.

I didn't expect that I could have such a perfect ending at the end of the story.

At this time, Apoptotic Rose walked up to him and asked: "Mammon is urging me again, saying that the bank can't hold on any longer and the soul coins are getting less and less valuable."

Amberxiu said nonchalantly: "Simple, isn't it just inflation."

Boundless divine power converged on Amber Xiu. At this moment, the figure of the Deceiver Archduke appeared in the Nine Hells at the same time, appearing in front of every Demon Archduke.

All the prominent devils in the nine hells looked at him nervously. All the devils knew that the Deceiver Archduke was about to solve the inflation problem in hell.

Mammon kept rubbing her palms together, hoping to solve the problem immediately.

Ambrose smiled and said to these colleagues: "Don't worry, as long as you do three things well, inflation can be resolved quickly."

Almost all the devils ask the same question: "Which three?"

Amberxiu said slowly: "Increase taxes, increase taxes, and increase taxes. Let these criminals see what real exploitation is. You all follow me, and I guarantee that you will become as rich as before."

Apoptotic Rose couldn't help but smile brightly when she saw Amber Xiu's confident look.

Some people are always the same, even if they become gods, they are still the same.
