Chapter 142: Preparing to Move
With Geronimo captured, Alchemy City finally ushered in complete peace.
Those small lords have already recognized the fact that they have no "destiny" under the attack of the two kingdoms. The protagonist who can dominate the world with just a wave of his arm is not themselves, but the lich under the banner of "love and peace".
This Ultraman Master, who was originally not known by many people, became famous throughout the continent during this period.
Not only because he can mediate the war between the Golden Kingdom and Silvermoon High Garden, but also because he is a lich.
Please, you are a lich. To end the war is completely against the decision of your ancestors.
Of course, there are still many people who believe that a lich cannot be so great as to save the world, and he must have a conspiracy.
Maybe this lich is planning to frame the dwarves and elves, negotiating on the surface, but actually assassinating them to make the war situation even more chaotic.
This conspiracy theory has always been popular, including the former believers of the Goddess of Pain and the brutal Skinning Family, who have always believed that Amber was preparing a big plan to bring pain to the world.
All good deeds are actually part of the plan.
This conspiracy theory reached its peak after the dwarf delegation was wiped out. Everyone thought that this must be the lich's plan. The dwarf delegation was wiped out, and the elves would be next. Then the two countries would completely lose the room for peace talks, the Alchemy City would become a ruin, and endless corpses would become the lich's spoils of war. Maybe he was going to establish a kingdom of the dead.
What a vicious plan! He is indeed an evil lich.
Even the Ryan Empire, far away on the other side of the continent, issued an announcement that if Amber really deliberately provoked a war, they would intervene when necessary to ensure the safety of local humans.
The meaning is very clear, that is, they are preparing to send troops around the desert.
Large-scale teleportation is very expensive, but the Ryan Empire can do anything for humanity and cannot calculate the cost with these lunatics.
Just as these conspiracy theorists were waiting for Amber to implement his evil plan, the Dwarf King and the Elf Queen jointly issued a statement, and under the mediation of the lich, the two countries signed a ceasefire agreement.
The elves will no longer send troops to the Alchemy City and will completely abandon the land they have "acquired". The dwarves will pay a certain price to "purchase" the entire territory of the Alchemy City.
Neither country has announced the exact cost.
But the elves really withdrew their troops, all the Dusk Guards that had been sent out before returned to Silvermoon High Garden, and all the magic contracts that had been signed were also invalidated. The elves really gave such a big country to the dwarves.
Outsiders didn't know what happened in the meantime. But the armistice agreement had been signed, so it couldn't be fake, right? Soon, the army sent by the dwarves began to contact the lords of the Alchemy City. Occasionally, there were a few fools who resisted stubbornly, but they were quickly defeated. The dwarves occupied the entire territory of the Alchemy City with great ease.
A large number of immigrants poured in and began to build new cities.
There may be more friction between immigrants and locals, but a large-scale war is unlikely to occur.
This lich actually prevented a war that affected tens of millions of people.
Even the Lion Empire, which hated liches the most, had to officially state that although Amber's behavior was motivated by unclear motives, it actually greatly reduced human casualties.
Originally, the bounty on Amberxiu's head in the Ryan Empire was as high as three million, but now he has been removed from the bounty list. This is the first time in history.
This was the first time that the Ryan Empire had given a positive evaluation of undead creatures, and it was definitely a major event that went down in the history of many countries.
The latest issue of the "Legendary Curse" supplement no longer has the elf loli wife on the front page. Various scholars' sharp comments on Amber Xiu occupy most of the space.
Some people say that Ambershu's kindness that transcends race is a betrayal, but for other species he is undoubtedly a hero worthy of praise. Ambershu should be made an example and made a role model for other undead, which may allow the undead and living creatures to live in peace.
Neutrals say that he is the only light among the undead creatures. The existence of Amberhu is enough to prove that the undead also have a kind side. All papers on the evil nature of the undead will have to be rewritten, and any related discussions cannot be separated from Amberhu, the savior lich.
Some people also insist on conspiracy theories, believing that Amber's conspiracy has not yet been exposed. For an immortal lich, a few years of war may just be a period of sleep. His plan can be measured in hundreds of years, spanning several generations. Until the truth is revealed, we must not let down our guard against the lich.
Amber carefully read all the comments, and then wrote down the pen names of the other party, preparing to send them a few letters to see who wants first-hand information about the "Benevolent Lich". As long as they pay enough appearance fees, they can have a face-to-face interview, and even talk about some big topics.
The authors of these sharp comments have been suppressed by authors of cool articles such as "Eighty-Year-Old Elf Loli" for many years. It is a rare opportunity for them to have a major event to comment on, so this interview right should be quite valuable.
However, these are small amounts of money.
The truly valuable thing is the mountain of gold sent by the elves.
It literally means a mountain of gold. With a total of 1.2 billion gold coins, it really is a mountain of gold when piled up.
Amberxiu was dazzled by the mountain of gold. He was so excited that he didn't move for several hours. He just used his soul to feel the charm of gold.
The golden throne transformed into a small chair was summoned by Ambersu and began to absorb the golden mountain storm.
The golden throne began to grow rapidly, returning to its heavy and luxurious appearance, making Amberxiu feel safe.
After absorbing tens of millions of gold coins, the golden throne had become ten meters high. Amberxiu looked a little small sitting on it, like a child sitting on a giant's chair.
Not only that, Amber also saw clear patterns beginning to appear on the golden throne.
These exquisite reliefs seem to be some kind of ancient sacrificial ritual, with billions of creatures kneeling down to worship something emitting brilliant light.
"This relief looks familiar."
Amber Xiu had a feeling that these reliefs not only represented the Golden Throne's ability to earn money through faith, but also had other meanings.
But there is no rush, it’s not too late to consider it slowly later.
He stuffed all the remaining gold coins into his own private space. With this money, Amberxiu would not lack research funds for a long time.
After finishing this, Amber handed a thick note to the Elf Queen who was already a little impatient.
Catherine has been hiding since she came out of the dragon's belly last time. It is said that she took ten baths a day, and it continued until today, and she finally got rid of the disgusting smell.
Seeing Amber handed over the notebook, Catherine quickly opened it and took a closer look.
The notes recorded the detailed principles of the Sealing Technique, as well as the design drawings of the assembly line for mass-producing Sealing Technique scrolls.
Catherine was also very familiar with magic, and she knew at first glance that this was the real thing, and she felt like tears welling up in her eyes.
After so many years of living in fear, the elves' magic addiction can finally be cured.
There is no mistake in the poem, post, content, and read the book on 6, 9, and bar!
The sealing technique will seal all magic power, turning those elites into ordinary people. The elves have a population of nearly 100 million, and about 50 million elves need to be sealed. These 50 million elves will completely lose their combat effectiveness, and Silvermoon High Court will enter a weak state for hundreds of years. If others discover this secret, the elves will definitely encounter many troubles.
Although there are so many side effects, Catherine is already very satisfied as long as she can keep these tens of millions of essences active.
Catherine said to Amber, "Silvermoon Court will be completely closed and will not be open to the public for five hundred years. But don't worry, we will still supply you with the magic materials we promised you on time. As for those magic-destroying weapons, I have discussed it with the Rose Queen and they will be sent to the Underdark in batches."
"That's great. It saves me the shipping cost of secondary handling."
Amber Xiu smiled brightly. He liked this kind of honest, trustworthy and considerate partner the most.
But soon, Catherine said to Amber, "But I will not go to the Underdark. According to the contract, I will only work for you, not for the Rose Queen."
Amber was a little embarrassed. How come the Elf Queen suddenly became smart and knew that he was going to send her away?
"Why not? You two are queens, you should have more common topics."
"Ms. Rose's lifelong goal is to destroy Ryan. If I work for her, she will definitely try every means to use me to deal with Ryan. The elves will now enter a long period of weakness. I cannot bring new enemies to the elves, so don't try to trick me into the Underdark."
Catherine's expression was very determined, as if she was willing to sacrifice for her people without fear.
"Then why do you have to follow me? I am also a lich, and Ryan is also my enemy."
"Your enemy is just poverty. I've known that for a long time. Ryan has already removed the wanted warrant for you and will not provoke you unless necessary."
Amber Xiu frowned and said, "Wouldn't it be better to just go back to Silvermoon High Court and be your queen?"
Catherine's expression became a little gloomy, and she explained to Amber Xiu: "I can't face them now. I am not a qualified queen. I lack experience, so I am too naive. When I encounter a crisis, I don't have a firm will and am easily overwhelmed by responsibility. I have a lot to learn."
"You know yourself quite well," said Amber.
Seeing that Amber Xiu had no words of comfort, Catherine snorted softly, and then said: "So I need to learn from you. Your cunning and cruelty are more terrifying than the villains in the novels I have read. I should be able to learn a lot by following you. Don't worry, I won't make trouble for you. As tuition, I can share my legendary favor with you."
Catherine had a few more words in her heart that she had not yet spoken.
The reason why she asked to follow Amber was actually because Amber was the only non-elf she knew.
Catherine didn't want to face any elves now. She had been tortured by guilt for too long. Whether it was escape or weakness, she needed to take a break. Catherine, who had never left Silvermoon High Court, was surprised to find that the only "outsider" she knew was Amber.
Although this lich looked cold and ruthless, he didn't seem dangerous, and he didn't have the disgusting corruption of other undead. This was Catherine's first time away from home, and she felt that Amber was a good choice as she was a little socially anxious.
Amber Xiu originally wanted to refuse, but after hearing the price offered by Catherine, he hesitated.
Catherine's selfless sharing can share her legendary power without any side effects. Amberxiu himself is a legend, and he will not be infected with magic addiction by accepting the sharing. This is a legendary blessing, don't miss it.
"Okay, in that case, you can be my assistant for the time being. But as promised, you have to pay for your own meals."
Catherine rolled her eyes at Amber. This lich really was greedy for money.
"So what are your plans next? Are you going to stay here and become a lord under the Dwarf King?" Catherine asked curiously.
Amber Xiu shook his head and said, "No, I'm going to move. I have a friend who got rich by digging graves, and I want to try it too."
