This lich needs more money

Chapter 225 War begins

"You said that the elves and gods asked you to help me?" Amber Xiu felt that he had heard a big joke.

He is a lich.

The tattered skeleton has nothing to do with elves, and may be somewhat comparable to the spider-turned drow in the Underdark.

"Catherine, are you possessed by an evil spirit?" Amberxiu asked.

The evil spirit mentioned here was an evil god. Amber Xiu even suspected that an evil god had taken a fancy to Catherine and started to create hallucinations for her. However, illusions were not very effective against elves, and Catherine did not seem to be deceived.

Catherine was not joking at all and said seriously: "I have been blessed by the gods, you should know that."

Speaking of this, Amberxiu's soul turned black with jealousy.

At that time, his teeth were itching with hatred. Unfortunately, he had lived for hundreds of years and had never seen such a reliable blessing or such a generous god.

The God of Alchemy is still Amber Xiu's teacher, but it turns out that he has to spend krypton gold to give him a blessing.

Catherine explained: "The blessing I received is that I will not be harmed under the moonlight. Don't you think this blessing is strange? Although it was a blessing given to me by Lady Moon, which is related to her priesthood, I I always feel that this blessing should be used here. Look at the moon in the sky. Even in the desert, it is rare to see such a big moon, as if it is afraid that the desert cannot be illuminated clearly. "

When Catherine said this, Amberxiu couldn't help but look up at the sky. Sure enough, the moon in the sky was a bit ridiculously big, as if it was about to fall down.

"But this is unreasonable. Why should the elves and gods ask you to help me? If they really want to give me benefits, they can just tell me no?"

Amber Xiu said this, but he was already praying in his heart. What are the prayers of the elves and gods?

After reciting Corellon's hymn silently for several times, nothing happened. Amberxiu could only say to Catherine: "I guess you are thinking too much. If the elves and gods wanted you to help me, they would have said directly, no need." Such a roundabout way. Aren’t you their favorite voter?”

Catherine shook her head and said in a rare firm tone: "I am no longer the little girl I used to be. The gods must have also seen this, so they will no longer speak the oracle as straightforwardly and clearly as before. They are testing me and hoping I can make a mature decision."

"Straightforward and clear? How straightforward?" Amberxiu asked.

Catherine recalled it for a moment, and then said: "It's just... just like chatting with friends."

Listen, is this human talk?

Oracles are never straightforward and clear, and 90% of them are riddles. Only by allowing believers to guess can the mystery of the gods be maintained. Amberxiu couldn't figure out for a while whether it was Catherine herself who was special, or whether the elves and gods had a special attitude towards her.

"Forget it, let's not talk about such meaningless questions. You said you want to help me, is this a mature decision? You are firmly bound to Silvermoon Highgarden, let alone in this timeline, you are still Queen of the Elf Tribe, even if you have stepped down from the throne, your every word and deed will be bound to the Elf Tribe."

Of course, Amberxiu hoped that Catherine would help, but after getting along for a while, Amberxiu also regarded Catherine as half a friend, and he did not want this silly elf girl to become a sinner of the elves.

Catherine said: "If it were in the past, I would also think that doing so would be detrimental to Silvermoon Highgarden. After all, Ryan is an ally of the elves. But recently, I have thought a lot about the crisis of the elves since the onset of the magic addiction disease until now. In the end, it's up to you to solve it. Where is our ally Lion? The elves don't even want them to know about the magic addiction disease, because we are also worried that Ryan will take this opportunity to invade Silvermoon Highgarden.

"Obviously the Lions are believers of the Lord of the Morning. When did the world start to associate Ryan with random invasions?"

Catherine's words made Amberxiu fall into deep thought. This was not a matter of Catherine's personal feelings. Amberxiu vaguely felt that something was wrong, and it was very wrong.

Yes, when did the believers of the Lord of the Dawn become the public enemies of the entire continent?

Not only did the elves have to guard against them, but even the druids of the Emerald Dream Forest were frightened to open the entire forest barrier to prevent the Lions from taking the opportunity to invade.

The reputation of the Lane people has changed, and under the watchful eye of the Lord of the Dawn, they have become public enemies of all races on the continent?

This is not normal, very abnormal.

Reminiscent of what Arthur Lane's heroic spirit said, when he killed the dragon tyrant, he fought for all races on the continent, so how could the kingdom he established become a public enemy of all races?

There must be some questions here, and we may have to wait for the historian Huggie Stone to give Amber the answer.

"So, you think Ryan has a problem, so you are ready to stand against Ryan?" Amberxiu asked.

"It's not that simple, but at least I shouldn't stand on Ryan's side unconditionally." Catherine hesitated for a moment, and then continued: "If possible, I will try not to expose my identity to help you, but even if there is exposure, I can convince myself of the risk."

Amberxiu looked at Catherine, remained silent for a long time, and then said "thank you".

I felt a little regretful that I shouldn't have weaved the future of that social beast for Catherine. Catherine cried miserably in the fate he weaved.

When that time comes, give her a holiday.

Amber was about to tell Catherine the good news, but they both turned their heads at the same time and looked towards the end of the desert.

The dark night could not block the two people's perception, and the Lane army had already appeared on the horizon.

Now is not the time to chat. Amberxiu opened his private space and said to Catherine: "You go in first, and I will ask you for help if necessary."

Catherine nodded and walked into Amberxiu's private space.

Amberxiu summoned Naomi in the form of a time dragon and flew into the sky riding a silver dragon.

What surprised Amber Xiu was that the Silver Moon Knight did not fly into the sky. No Llane appeared in the sky; they all seemed to remain on the ground, marching with the army.

"That's how you play? Then the Dwarf Iron Guards will be miserable."

Just as Amber Xiu sighed with emotion, a bright holy light condensed over the Lane troops.

Amberxiu thought it was the Knight of the Silver Moon who was about to take action, and thought he could trick him into using a sword, but he found that the holy light condensed into the shape of a silver-armored warrior.

Summon celestial warriors?

This giant of light is almost ten meters tall. Although it is condensed by holy light, its body is lifelike, and you can see the details of the expression of this celestial warrior.

Back then, three hundred slaves were able to summon heavenly warriors by relying on their faith after two days of training. These were Ryan's regular troops, and their piety was naturally much higher.

The heavenly warriors condensed with holy light rushed towards the position set up by the dwarf iron guard.

The defensive fortifications originally prepared for humans completely lost their meaning in front of the ten-meter-tall celestial warriors. Any low wall, ravine, or trap to stop the horse could be crossed with a slight lift of the leg.

The long sword condensed with holy light slashed across the ground, plowing a deep ravine. Whether it is stone, sand, or steel, it is cut like butter under the cutting of this holy light sword.

The Celestial Warriors charged all the way, as if they wanted to cut the entire position open.

However, the dwarves did not panic. After fighting for so long, the dwarf iron guards had already seen Ryan's trick.

Dozens of hammers were thrown out, with a powerful impact, hitting the heavenly warrior.

The hammer seems to carry the blessing of the earth. When it hits the energy structure of the celestial warrior, it will explode a force like a sandstorm. Dozens of hammers are enough to interrupt the charge of the celestial warrior and cause large cracks in his body.

The Celestial Warrior simply leaned down and swept across the battlefield with his long sword, completely disrupting the defensive position.

But this warrior of light collapsed completely after the second round of hammer blows, turning into holy light and wandering in the air.

Lane lost a celestial warrior, and the dwarf's position was destroyed. Most of the dwarf iron guard suffered casualties. It seemed that the Lane people made a profit. The Lane people thought so too, so their troops began to charge.

What follows is a brutal hand-to-hand combat.

The dwarf iron guards blocked the front to make room for the spellcasters behind them.

The rays of light from various spells were connected together, shining like fireworks in this desert night, but where these lights and shadows fell, flesh and blood flew everywhere, and it was extremely tragic.

Ryan does not have so many fancy spells, most of them are light priests who provide assistance to the warriors in front.

Divine Guidance, Blessing, Chain of Protection, Shield of Shelter, Vitality Halo, etc... The white holy light turned into an ocean, covering the bodies of all Lane warriors, causing each of them to be wrapped in the holy light and stinging. No one can open their eyes.

Amber Xiu took a look at the battlefield. Even though he was an outsider, he could still see that the dwarves were retreating steadily.

Although the dwarves guarding the city here are all elite, their number is too small, and they cannot compare with Ryan in terms of military combat effectiveness.

The paladin wearing heavy armor stood in front, like an iron can. Various blessings allowed these paladin to resist most spell damage, and the paladin's holy sword could cut even steel.

The integration of offense and defense, coupled with the neat and uniform camp, looks much more professional than the dwarves.

On the Manna City side, only the dwarf iron guards could maintain their formation. The other mercenaries who had been forcibly recruited had become a mess and began to be forced back step by step by the Ryan Army.

Amberxiu watched carefully. This was the first time he saw Ryan's large army fighting on the battlefield.

In the last exercise, Amber Xiu had led the paladins into a trap through deception, but he had never seen them perform at their best. Looking at it now, I just feel my scalp is numb. Ryan is the same as the Silver Moon Knight. The Silver Moon Knight is stronger than the standard at the legendary level, while Ryan is stronger than the standard in the Nine Kingdoms.

The dwarves could not hold out for long in a head-on battle, and the legends of the dwarf kingdom could only begin to join the battle to block the offensive of the Lion Army.

Amber Xiu has been hovering in the sky, looking for his only opponent.

Soon, Amber Xiu felt a dangerous aura coming from below.

A ray of silver-white moonlight flew out from Ryan's army and flew towards the sky.

Amber Xiu was shocked. This old man, instead of killing Manna City, would he kill himself flying in the sky first? !

Amberxiu didn't hesitate and controlled Naomi to avoid it, but he was surprised to find that Naomi couldn't outrun the sword light, and Yuehua's sword seemed to have firmly locked onto Amberxiu's aura. , and can follow him around corners.

"Holy shit!"

Amberxiu couldn't help but cursed, quickly opened the private space, and caught Catherine out.

Catherine, who had not yet reacted, was about to speak and ask if she needed help, but was thrown out by Amber Xiu.

Yuehua struck Catherine directly with her sword!
