This lich needs more money

People from the Alchemy City arrived faster than expected.

While Ambrose was still checking to see which piece of equipment could be washed and used, Gustavo Flynn, the sixth seat of the parliament, came to the scene.

Looking at the ruined streets, the legendary alchemist's face looked very ugly.

Gustavo Flynn stared at Amberxiu and said, "You sold that bar to me just so that you wouldn't feel bad when it was demolished, right?"

Amberxiu said nonchalantly: "The sixth seat of the Alchemist Council, a bar is nothing to you."

"I can ignore the bar, but look what you did? Are you afraid that others won't know about it in the city? How can we cooperate?!"

This is the real reason for Gustavo Flynn's anger. Alchemy City has always stated that it is neutral, so it only provided the paladins with a little basic information about Amber Xiu. Even if they did not give it, the paladins would It takes a little while to find out the news.

As for all the activities of the paladin in the city, the Alchemy City did not disclose it to Amber Xiu.

This put Amberxiu in a completely passive state, and he could only play passive defense at the beginning.

Later, Apoptotic Rose sent him information, and Amber Xiu reluctantly spent a large sum of money to create this ambush.

Thanks to Gareth's good relationship with the rich female orc, who had many connections among the adventurers in Alchemy City, the assassination was successfully carried out.

But thinking about it now, it's still a bit of a loss. After all, Gareth has to take action in the end, which is obviously free.

Therefore, in the face of Gustavo Flynn’s questioning, Ambrose smiled and said: "My dear Flynn, don’t you understand? What I did is just to give you an excuse to intervene. Do you want to I want to see, if this group of paladins attacks my castle and is captured by me, and you suddenly give up your neutrality and rescue people, what will the Lion Empire think?

"Even if the Lion Empire doesn't doubt it, what will other people think? I am also the lord of Alchemy City. If outsiders come to attack me, you won't help me, but you will just sidetrack me. Nowadays, people's hearts are floating. You are really not afraid of the little lords below. Are they rebelling together?

"Now that I have taken the initiative and destroyed this street, haven't you just found a reason to intervene in this matter? You can claim to the outside world that I violated the laws of the Alchemy City and caused serious losses, so you made serious representations. Or sternly condemn, anyway, you can figure out the words yourself.

"Then I can hand over the person to the Alchemy City. Even if our transaction is completed, no one can find any fault."

After hearing what Amberxiu said, Gustavo Flynn felt that it made some sense, but he also knew very well that what Amberxiu said was actually blocking his ability to pursue responsibility and compensation. Once I agree with his statement, the Alchemy City will have to pay for all the damage.

But precisely because he guessed what Amberxiu was thinking, Gustavo Flynn did not continue to pester him.

This damn lich will do anything for money.

If Gustavo Flynn continues to negotiate compensation with Amber Xiu, he might really dare to kill a few of these paladins.

Gustavo Flynn asked point-blank: “When will the deal happen?”

Amber Xiu stretched out his finger and shook it, and then said: "Don't be so anxious, you have to do a full set of performances. You have to ask me to take the person back and lock him up for a few days. Then you can make some big battles, and I will do it again." Send people here so that it can be considered realistic. The Lion Empire is not without prophets, so we should be more cautious in this cooperation."

This sounded very reasonable, but Gustavo Flynn vaguely felt that something was wrong. He was not in a hurry to get paid, which was a bit out of line with his character.

And, he mentioned prophecy.

Gustavo Flynn rubbed the ring on his hand without leaving a trace.

The enchantment spell is activated, and Gustavo Flynn gains the ability to discern lies.

Gustavo Flynn asked Ambrose: "Do you have any other plans? Are you going to break the contract?"

Who would have thought that Amber Xiu just smiled slightly, did not answer the question directly, and used the hands of dozens of mages to grab the holy warriors and take them away.

Gustavo Flynn frowned, was he discovered? It was obviously a secret spell specifically targeted at the perception of the undead, but this skeleton was too sensitive.

Amberxiu didn't give him a chance to continue testing. He stuffed all the paladins into any door and teleported them to his castle.

Before leaving, Amber Xiucai said to Gustavo Flynn: "By the way, there is such a big mess in the Alchemy City. Isn't the president ready to come forward?"

The president has always been a legendary figure. Only the members of the council may have seen him in the Alchemy City. Amberxiu only had correspondence with him at the beginning and never met him in person.

"Why are you asking this?" Gustavo Flynn asked warily.

"I'm just curious. I've been thinking about a question these days. What's the trouble in the sewers of Alchemy City that makes you proud lunatics have to ask for help from outside. Could it be that even the president can't solve it? He is The alchemist who is closest to the gods."

Gustavo Flynn said coldly: "You don't have to worry about this."

Amberxiu stopped asking questions and left the ruins with Gareth.

As soon as he returned to the castle, Amberxiu said to Gareth: "Those lunatics in Alchemy City must have a conspiracy. These bastards might want to trick me."

Gareth was still sighing about his helmet. This hand-hammered helmet was damaged by the Holy Slash, which made him quite irritated.

Hearing Amber Xiu's words, Gareth said strangely: "Didn't you just have a good chat?"

"What the heck, Gustavo Flynn has already lied to me. Does he think I didn't notice his little tricks? The cooperation was obviously going smoothly, but now he suddenly doesn't trust me. It means they have something up their sleeves. They're afraid What do I know? This old boy is usually very reserved and steady. Even if the elves aim a bow and arrow at his head, his hand holding the test tube will not shake even for a moment. But he has been losing his temper frequently recently, which is completely inconsistent with his character. has a problem."

Amberxiu touched his chin, trying to connect Gustavo Flynn's behavior with the prophecy he had received before, but for a while he couldn't think of any explanation.

After thinking about it, Amberxiu took out the Code of the Undead and sent a message to Apoptotic Rose.

[Ultraman Tiga: Ms. Rose, have you entered the Alchemy City now? 】

After waiting for a while, Amberxiu received a reply from Apoptotic Rose.

[Apoptotic Rose: I just arrived in the city and am wandering around the city in the name of an academic visit. Why do you ask? 】

Apoptotic Rose appeared near the Alchemy City with an army, and the parliament had already discovered it. If the current Alchemy City is attacked by the undead, there will be big trouble.

Apoptotic Rose never thought that this "honor guard" could bring down the Alchemy City. That would be too underestimated for this group of alchemists. Neither side wanted to fight, so Apoptotic Rose made some random excuses, and Alchemy City "enthusiastically" invited her into the city, which was considered surveillance and investigation.

[Ultraman Tiga: There is a big secret hidden in the sewers of Alchemy City. I would like your help to investigate. 】

Amberxiu told Apoptotic Rose some tellable information, such as the false prophecy about the sewer becoming a god, and the recent strange actions in Alchemy City.

Apoptotic Rose quickly replied: [Okay, I will pay attention. But I also want to remind you to be careful. Sister Canggu can't help but go to Gareth. She is very angry now. 】

Amber Xiu:......

No way, jumping to the plot of losing your head so quickly? !
