This Lich Needs More Money

Chapter 467: The Pile of Corpses of Divine Arts

The fourth pile of corpses

Are these three puppets the only ones in the entire arena?

Amber Xiu suddenly felt that the sky was falling.

With just such a thing, how could he form an army of heroic spirits and rent them out as mercenaries? He still wants to take advantage of the fierce fighting between Ryan and the orcs to pull out this elite mercenary and make a lot of money?

There were only three in the end, so it was useless no matter how hard they fought. The mercenaries who couldn't decide the direction of the battlefield could only be used to consume the magic power of the enemy's casters at most.

It's like talking to an orc about business with a magic cannon, and the orcs won't bother to pay attention to you.

Amberxiu's original plan was to have an entire magical artillery regiment that could destroy cities, so that he could make a lot of money from just a random battle.

There are only three of them now, so it won’t cost much to rent at all, and you might even lose money on maintenance fees!

You must know that letting Arthur Lane fight with all his strength requires high costs.

Damn it, it was a big loss this time.

Although Amberxiu's face was expressionless, Talos still saw Amberxiu's thoughts and laughed loudly and said: "I just want to see your expression, I just want to see you who are clearly at a disadvantage but don't care. Dare to say it!”

Amber Xiu:......

Not only was Amberxiu silent, but even Arthur Lane, who was standing aside, was a little surprised. Does the legendary cruel and terrifying Storm Lord have this kind of character? Why do you look like a naughty kid?

As for Ariel, although she was still kneeling on the ground devoutly, she could not help but be shocked in her heart.

Is this what the god he worships is like? The Lord of Storms used to be very careful with his words, and his oracles were simple and direct. He had no other emotions except majesty.

As a result, in front of this lich, he became like a child who succeeded in playing a prank.

Ariel and Arthur Lane don't quite understand Amber's current status in the hearts of the gods. Lavita, Tiamat, Rose, Shar, Zariel and many other goddesses are all in Amber. I stumbled on my hands. Based on this great achievement, this lich has been recognized by the gods as a being who should become a god with just one mouth.

It's just that Io probably doesn't want another cunning god on the list of gods, so he hasn't given the nod to Amber Xiu for promotion until now.

Talos has defeated this Lich. How shameless is it to say this?

Not only that, in the near future, this lich will also package and send the Kuo-Tao mermaid goddess. If other gods know about this, Talos will be the first god to successfully let this lich work for him. .

Just as he was feeling proud, Amberxiu sighed and said, "It is indeed a loss, and it was all part of your calculation."

Talos said unexpectedly: "Huh? You feel quite comfortable admitting defeat."

Amberxiu said calmly: "Winning or losing is a fact, and it will not change just because someone refuses to admit it. I am a lich, and I don't have the extreme emotion of refusing to admit it just to save face. Moreover, losing to the great storm Lord, it’s normal. How can any mortal be better than you?”

Talos was very happy by Amber Xiu's words, and felt relieved from the bottom of his heart.

Yes, isn’t it normal for great gods to be better than mortals? This lich is already convinced!

"Hahaha, yes, you are more interesting than those mortals who keep talking even when they are about to die. A real warrior will not escape from his own failures, but face his own failures. Not many mortals can have this awareness. Since you admit defeat, you understand So simple, I am not a stingy god, you have passed the trial of destruction, I should give you a corresponding reward."

Three rays of light flew out of Talos's projection and landed in front of Amber Xiu.

"At the beginning, every trial that my believers participated in was ten levels, and only the final winner could get my reward. But now that the last power of the entire arena has been defeated by you, then Make your choice.”

Amberxiu thought to himself that gods like Talos are easy to understand. As long as you are worthy of letting him look at you a few more times, and then choose to praise him a few times at the right time, this god will reward you very generously.

It has to be said that Talos is the most generous god that Amber has ever seen.

Amberxiu carefully sensed these three rays of light. Talos did not hide them. When Amberxiu's perception covered them, he could immediately sense what the reward was.

A staff can be regarded as an artifact. It can comprehensively enhance the spells with lightning, frost and fire attributes. It can cast chain lightning three times without any consumption.

Amberxiu gave up after just one glance.

This kind of staff is of little use to him. As long as he is given enough gold, the Golden Throne will defeat all magical equipment that assists in spellcasting.

The second one is a heroic spirit, which is similar to the three heroic spirits he just took out. It may be slightly stronger, but there is only one.

Amber Xiu hesitated for a moment. This thing was somewhat useful, but changing from three to four seemed to have no meaning.

However, the last reward made him quite excited. It was a magical technique that was exclusive to the giants - accumulation of corpses.

The effect is simple and direct, that is, a large number of corpses can be used to create that indestructible material.

These three giant puppets barely left a shallow sword mark after they ate Arthur Lane's Holy Slash. The material used to build the city gate was incredibly hard, and the dwarf country's overwhelming power would have to wait for an earthquake to shake it. Only by opening gaps can you enter the city and explore.

The only problem is that this is a magical technique belonging to the giants, and two conditions must be met at the same time before it can be used.

First of all, it must be a giant race, and secondly, it must be a storm priest who believes in Talos. Both conditions are indispensable.

In other words, Amberxiu couldn't cast this magic by herself, and even if Ariel came, she wouldn't be able to learn it.

But as long as he can learn it, Amber Xiu has already imagined how terrifying this magic can be. The giants can create such a strong material just by stacking flesh and blood corpses, and Amberxiu can turn steel into "corpse". With the effect of this "corpse" and divine magic, can it create a real kind of material? Indestructible armor?

As for how to use this magic, there is always a way, at least there is hope, rather than the other two things that are obvious at a glance.

"Then I will choose this divine spell as a reward, and thank the Storm Lord for his gift."

Amberxiu stretched out his hand to grab this ball of light, and Amberxiu was fully aware of the magical skill of "accumulation of corpses".

Unfortunately, these are not actually knowledge, but a "help" signal to Talos.

This is the essential difference between priest magic and mage magic.

Magic is when you understand the nature of magic and use your own wisdom to cast it. As long as the goddess of magic does not stop you, you can cast the corresponding spell. It all depends on your personal ability. Divine magic is different. Divine magic is asking the gods for help. If the gods agree, you can perform it. If the gods ignore you, the magic is useless.

After the rewards were given out, Talos simply left. Only the three of Amberxiu and three fallen giant puppets were left in the arena.

Amberxiu did not hesitate to stuff these three corpses into his private space. This indestructible body will definitely come in handy.

After packing these things, Ariel asked: "Are we still going to move on?"

Amberxiu shook his head and said, “It’s not necessary, didn’t you listen to what Talos said just now, the last power of this arena has been exhausted, and the Githyanki who are still here should find this out soon. This is the only place they can survive, and they will search all locations thoroughly, and the battle we just fought also consumed a lot, and we need to rest and prepare.”

Ariel then realized that they were here to find the Githyanki.

While it’s unknown how many Githyanki lost in another trial, to be able to survive for so long means they must have passed at least one trial and found a way to survive in this arena.

It is said that the Githyanki reproduce at a rapid rate, and there is no telling how much their numbers have increased during this time.

The three of them had just had a big battle and really needed a good rest.

Amberxiu replenished Arthur Lane's soul energy, and then got into his own private space, taking this opportunity to study what he had just obtained.

The three heroic spirits that he had taken apart had been reassembled, and Amber Xiu was becoming more and more proficient in his skills.

"Let me see, I already have the heroic spirits of the giants, and these corpses are also composed of the flesh and blood of the giants. Then I can theoretically create a 'giant'..."

Amberxiu wondered if he could make a giant storm priest himself. No one said that the undead could not be priests. As long as Talos nodded, the lich could become his follower. Compared to other gods, the Storm Lord is less racist.

Whatever he wanted to do, Amberxiu tried to transform the souls of these heroic spirits so that they could not only maintain their faith in Talos, but also remain loyal to themselves to a certain extent.

This is difficult, and it can turn into blasphemy if you’re not careful.

But no matter how difficult it is, you have to do it. You can't just watch the magic being useless.

As he got so busy, Ambrose lost track of time until Ariel informed him through the magic mirror that the Githyanki had appeared.

Amberxiu walked out of his private space. He had been studying it for almost two months, but the progress was very slow for the time being.

Faith and loyalty seem to be difficult to reconcile. You cannot let a devout believer be loyal to the gods and himself at the same time, especially since Amberxiu, a lich, does not have much respect for Talos.

"How did the Lane people do it? They are loyal to both the royal family and the Lord of the Dawn. Ah, I really want to capture a paladin to study!"

Amberxiu sighed with emotion, and when he walked out of his private space, a group of Githyanki had already surrounded Ariel and Arthur.

However, a large number of Githyanki were also lying scattered on the ground. It looked like they had already taken action, but the Githyanki suffered a big loss.

This is not surprising, there are only thirty or forty Githyanki in this group, and there is probably no legendary powerhouse, so how can they possibly defeat Arthur and Ariel.

Seeing Umbershoe appearing, the group of Githyanki became even more upset. The enemy was so powerful that they didn't know whether to run or to fight.

Amber has already transformed into a human before being repaired, which is generally more suitable for negotiations.

He smiled slightly and said to the Githyanki, "Don't be nervous, I'm here to discuss business with the Githyanki."
