This lich needs more money

Chapter 230 If you can’t deceive, use your fists

Harvey's dizzy head was awakened by the wind and sand, and he knew that he had been fooled.

"This is wrong, should I die? How could I meet a liar at this time?"

Harvey couldn't understand, but he was not prepared to let these two liars go. How could he stop himself from rushing to his fateful end at the critical moment?

Hasting and Harris were already hiding in a hotel in Manna City.

He took off his disguise, revealing a strange body composed of machinery and mercury.

"Hehehe, I didn't expect to meet a fat sheep. Now the travel expenses are enough." Hasting's voice came from the magic power furnace in his chest, and there was a strange echo.

Hares, whose whole body turned into a pile of mercury, also made a sigh of relief: "I don't know how many days have been wasted. We haven't even seen a paladin. Now we can finally cross the line of death and find those paladin. But this little money is not enough, we also need to buy some equipment in Manna City to avoid being hacked to death by the sword of the paladin."

After these two were modified by Amber to become abnormal undead, they were given a difficult task.

Test whether this body will be restrained by the Holy Warrior's Holy Slash.

But Amber Xiu only gave them orders, but didn't give them a single gold coin.

The two brothers came to the surface, and as a result, the war between the dwarves and Lion was over, and the death line in the desert became the dividing line between the two countries.

It is impossible to cross the death line on foot, even the body of a golem will be ground to pieces by the endless wind and sand.

They spent a lot of time and found someone who could help them cross the border. People here in the desert called it "walking the line."

In fact, it is a secret, special underground passage that can cross the line of death.

However, the person who controls this passage is not easy to negotiate, and the asking price is 10,000 gold coins per person.

The two brothers didn't even have a single gold coin. They had to rely on the undead to survive so many days without eating or drinking. How could they get the money to run the wires?

At first, Hasting wanted it hard.

After all, the two of them are no longer what they used to be, and they are no longer as weak as before. Hasting's golem puppet is the latest model from Alchemy City, and with Hareth turning into mercury, it can be said that he has the power of a high-level adventurer.

It shouldn't be a big problem to deal with a few gangsters helping people run the cables.

However, after investigation, it was discovered that the people who came out to negotiate prices were all outsiders and had no idea where the hidden tunnel was. Only after paying the money will the person behind the scenes appear.

If the two brothers took action directly, they would only alert the enemy and make the real people behind the scenes hide.

In desperation, they could only start their old business, accepting commissions in taverns to collect bounties, and working part-time as liars.

Originally, there was still a lot to be desired, but I didn't expect to meet Harvey, a fat sheep.

Thousands of gold coins were delivered to them in this way. As a result, they had collected enough funds, and the two of them were ready to take the route to the other side of the desert at any time.

"Who is that kid? Is he really a prophecy mage?" Hasting asked Hareth.

It was Hares who told Hasting that he had discovered a prophecy mage, and then they struck up a conversation with him. If it weren't for his brother's reminder, Hasting wouldn't even know that there is such a profession as a prophecy mage in this world.

Hares' mercury body squirmed, and then said: "I only found out after following the master. That boy had several secret spell-casting movements when he was gambling. The postures were exactly the same as our master's, just like a student following Teacher. Only a prophecy mage can win so much money at the gambling table."

The two brothers knew that Harvey was a prophecy mage and still dared to lie to him. In fact, the original plan was for Hasting to lie and Hareth to tell the truth.

If Harvey really chooses Hares, he will really use the scales to hand in the mission.

This scale was turned in by Amber Xiu when he handed in the task to the tavern. When no one was paying attention, Harris turned into a mercury thread and sneaked into the tavern's warehouse and stole the scale, so it must not be used to hand in the task. People can spot problems.

The hole dug by Hares is just a share of the mission bounty. He must find various ways to reduce Harvey's share and take the big share himself. In this way, you can make a small profit, and do it a few more times to collect enough funds for wiring.

It's just that Harvey was easier to deceive than he thought. He didn't have to do anything, just took the money and left.

Now that everything is almost ready, it's time to go to the paladin's territory and let others chop it with the Holy Slash.

Hareth's mercury body squirmed and climbed onto Hasting. Then he put on his coat and mask. The two of them became one person. Ten thousand gold coins were enough.

But neither brother expected that they would see Harvey standing at the door with a sneer as soon as they walked out of the hotel, as if they had been waiting for a long time.

Hasting, on the other hand, walked past Harvey very naturally, as if he hadn't seen him.

When Harvey saw this, he quickly said: "Hey, when you see the victim coming to your door, you, a liar, have this attitude?"

Hasting said in a puzzled tone: "My friend, are you talking to me? We don't seem to know each other, right?"

Harvey's eyes widened, never expecting that this man would be so shameless, and said angrily: "You cheated me of thousands of gold coins in the tavern, and now you say you don't recognize me? Do you think I'll just change your cloak and mask?" Don’t you recognize you?”

Hasting didn't panic at all and said calmly: "Listen to what you said. The man you know wears a mask that is different from the one I wear. How can you say that we are the same person? Have you ever seen him? What does that person look like, do you want me to lift the mask and check it out for you?"

"you!"

Harvey was surprised to find that he couldn't tell this liar. If his divination hadn't locked the person in front of him, he really couldn't be sure it was the same person, but now he had no evidence.

"Okay, I'm very busy. If I encounter the liar you mentioned next time, I will remind him to return the money to you. Goodbye."

Hasting said this politely, and then walked away from Harvey again.

Harvey already understood that he could not win against such a professional liar by relying on his words, so he chose to use his own method, and a die of fate fell on Hastings.

A few seconds later, there was a sound of tearing cloth, and gold coins began to fall to the ground from Hasting's cloak.

Hasting hurriedly stretched out his hand to fish it out. He had not paid attention when he was walking. The mechanical seams on his body caught the money bag and frayed after a few steps.

The two brothers did not have magic pockets with huge space, so they could only carry tens of thousands of gold coins on their bodies.

As a result, as soon as the bag was dropped, the golden coins rolled all over the floor.

This naturally attracted the attention of passers-by. A group of people came over with ill intentions and said enthusiastically: "Oh, why are you so careless? Let me pick it up for you."

The next moment, more than a dozen hands appeared on these gold coins. By the time these palms disappeared, half of the gold coins on the ground had been lost.

Hasting angrily wanted to push the thieves to the ground, but they had already disappeared.

The folk customs of Ganlu City are so simple.

After packing up the remaining gold coins, Hasting discovered that there were only just over 6,000 gold coins left from the original 10,000 gold coins, and the money for wiring was not enough.

Hasting angrily grabbed Harvey's collar and lifted the young man into the air: "You are looking for death, aren't you?"

Harvey imitated Hasting's tone and said: "My friend, what are you talking about? I just stood aside and did nothing."

He originally thought that Hasting would be speechless by his words, and that he could treat him the same way as he did. However, what Harvey didn't expect was: "Try this trick with me, you Do you think I need evidence?”

After saying that, Hasting punched Harvey in the eye socket, making his eyes swollen.

This is because Hasting had a lot of energy left, otherwise it would be enough to blow Harvey's head off with one punch.

Harvey was blinded by this punch. Isn't this liar's moral bottom line too flexible? !

Harvey angrily threw the Dice of Destiny at Hasting, and then Hasting's body clicked and several bolts fell from his cloak.

The power of the Dice of Destiny, wherever it can malfunction, it will.

Hasting's right hand was stuck and appeared to be malfunctioning.

But when Harvey saw these bolts, he realized that he was not facing a living person, but a puppet puppet.

"Wait, you...were you sent by my teacher?" Harvey asked.

Harvey has seen the alien skeletons made by Amber Xiu and various puppet materials in his laboratory. He knows that this teacher likes to play with such strange things, but these are not enough to draw a conclusion. .

Harvey just intuitively believed that the demon puppet in front of him should be related to his teacher.

Hasting put Harvey down and asked: "Teacher? Who is your teacher?"

Harvey quickly said: "King of Elden!"

Boom, Harvey responded with another fist from Hastings.

Hasting grabbed Harvey, whose eyes were already black, and said, "I don't know the King of Elden! You kid, don't even think about leaving until you pay for today!"
