This lich needs more money

Under the dim candlelight, the young mage was writing furiously.

Poor Alan suffered cruel torture again, but even when he was dying, he still insisted on praying to the Lord of the Morning. I couldn't help but be moved by his firm belief, but I couldn't help but think about what the faith had brought him. What is it.

He is also a prisoner of the lich, but he is the only one suffering the torture, and I, a little mage apprentice, can even write letters to my family...

William Harvey wrote several sheets of parchment eloquently, and then handed the article titled My Paladin Friend Allen-A Brief Discussion on the Influence of Faith on Young People to Amber Hew.

Amberxiu read the content carefully, nodded with satisfaction, and said to Harvey, Not bad. Your writing is quite good. Aren't you going to switch to writing novels?

The young mage showed an awkward but polite smile, and then asked cautiously: Ultraman Master, can this kind of story really be published in Legendary Curse?

Umbersheu asked Harvey to weave a story from his own perspective, telling the story of Allen, a devout paladin who actively provoked a powerful lich because of his firm belief. After being captured, he suffered even more cruel treatment because of his belief.

It is a eloquent 20,000 to 30,000 words, and the whole article secretly points out that Allen's belief does not come from the sincerity, but is just because of the influence of family education he received since childhood, and he has become a fanatical believer of the Lord of the Dawn as if brainwashed. It points out that the old fanatical believer's father has His son's harsh and abnormal training turned the good young Allen into a religious lunatic.

Anyway, the central idea of ​​the article is that James Watson, the editor-in-chief of Legendary Curse, is an old man who uses forced methods to brainwash his son, which violates the universal value of freedom of belief in the mainland and distorts the teachings of the Lord of the Dawn. Become a religious lunatic.

Harvey felt that if this article was submitted, his name would be permanently blocked by Legendary Curse, and then the paladin army would march directly to the gate of the castle, not to defeat the Ultraman master, but to defeat him William · Harvey was burned at the stake.

Amberxiu comforted Harvey happily and said: I will definitely not be able to get into the main issue of Legendary Curse, but the supplement should be fine. Congratulations, young mage, you are also a contributor to Legendary Curse.

The main issue of Legendary Curse is about various high-end magic research, while the supplement is more entertainment-oriented. For example, The Years Drifting North in Silvermoon Highgarden, My Eighty-Year-Old Loli Elf Wife, The Domineering Prince of the Lion Empire, etc. These documentary literary works are quite popular, and the supplements are even more popular than The main issue sells more hotly.

Amberxiu couldn't directly send a threatening letter to the Lion Empire, so he said: I have your paladins and priests of light in my hands. Hurry up and get a ransom of several million gold coins, otherwise we will break up the vote.

If this was done, the Lane Empire would definitely publicly state that Amber Xiu was on their wanted list, and then directly send troops to kill Amber Xiu. Even the Alchemy City would have no reason to stop him.

Therefore, Ambrose needs to use a more subtle way to inform James Watson - your son is in my hands!

Asking Harvey to write such an article was a roundabout way of informing James Watson that if he didn't want to lose his son, he would have paid the ransom out of his own pocket, so as not to completely break up.

In the article, Harvey repeatedly mentioned the price of the ransom and the idea of ​​releasing people after receiving the money in the tone of an onlooker. I believe the editor is not a fool and should be able to understand what Amberxiu means.

Although Harvey knew very well that he would be in bad luck after this article was published, but as a prisoner, he really had no room to refuse. He could only hope that Amberxiu could keep his promise and not embarrass him.

Judging from the interactions in the past few days, this lich is much kinder than expected. Even the paladin and the priest of light were not abused at all. At most, they were locked up and not allowed to run around. The cruel torture described in the article was actually made up.

Harvey even asked Ambrose why he was making it up instead of directly using torture.

Ambrose's answer at that time surprised him.

Why torture? I'm so busy doing experiments every day that I don't have time to sleep. Where can I find the time to torture them? Besides, what's the use of torturing the two of them? You can't kill them to get their souls. If you're injured, you have to spend money to treat them. Am I mentally ill to waste money and time on him?

This answer sounded reasonable, but Harvey always felt that something was wrong. Is it simply because of the cost that an undead lich doesn't torture a paladin?

No one would believe this, right?

However, Harvey did not continue to ask. As a mage apprentice, he lived quite comfortably in the castle. He had a separate room and could occasionally read books.

If he wasn't being followed by those alien skeletons at any time, Harvey felt that it would be no different from when he was at home. If you talk too much and anger this kind old lich, it will really be more harm than good.

Amberxiu put away Harvey's article, mailed it to Legendary Curse as quickly as possible, and then got into the laboratory again.

Amber Xiu is not bragging, he is really busy.

The combat record of the living mercury still needs to be edited, and the living mercury experiment needs to be finished. More importantly, he needs to organize the detailed data and information and send it to Apoptotic Rose, the rich undead woman, to see if it can be done. Let her settle the balance.

In Amber's view, living mercury already meets the requirements of the Apoptotic Rose.

The magic resistance is enough to withstand most magic traps, and living mercury is not undead and will not be discovered by the Lion Empire's undead monitoring system. In addition, the body can be deformed at will, so it can break through the drainage outlet of the city wall or directly climb the city wall.

As long as the quantity is large enough, living mercury might really be able to break through the walls of the Lion Empire.

Of course, the premise is that the legends of the Lion Empire will not take action, otherwise the living mercury will not be able to withstand several large-scale attack magic. They only have magic resistance, but they are not completely immune to magic.

After working for a long time, Amberxiu finally packaged the information and sent it to Apoptotic Rose through the Code of the Undead.

The rich woman seemed to be online at all times and responded almost immediately.

[Apoptotic Rose: So fast? I thought it would take another month or two for you to come up with the preliminary design drawings. 】

High-level undead are not that easy to design, let alone the undead troops specifically targeted at the Lion Empire. It is as wishful thinking as ordering beef noodles without all the beef.

[Ultraman Tiga: Standing on the shoulders of the master, it is naturally easier to achieve results. I found inspiration from Master Morgan's spirit servant design and imitated it to create this new type of spirit servant, which should be able to meet your needs. 】

[Apoptotic Rose: Master Morgan? By coincidence, I am his student. 】

Amberxiu didn't expect such a coincidence. No wonder Apoptotic Rose wanted to deal with the Lion Empire. Master Morgan was hunted down by the paladin of the Lion Empire and finally fell. This was to avenge the teacher. This spirit is worthy of admiration.

[Ultraman Tiga: For the sake of Master Morgan, I can give you a discount. 】

[Apoptotic Rose: Oh, how much discount? 】

[Ultraman Tiga: 9.95% off. 】

The rich woman was silent for a long time before replying.

[Apoptotic Rose: You'd better not discount me. If you let the teacher know that you are worth so little, I'm afraid he will come back to life and smash your life box. 】

[Ultraman Tiga: Well, respect is in the heart and should not be measured in gold coins. 】

[Apoptotic Rose:...]

The rich woman didn't reply to the message again. It seemed that she was carefully studying the information sent by Amber Xiu.

Amber Xiu was fully looking forward to Party A's feedback, and suddenly saw new news on the Code of the Undead.

But this time it was someone he didn't expect who sent the message.

[The Crown of the Headless Horseman: Brother Tiga, can I stay at your place for a few days? 】
