Chapter 26 I, the legend, want money!

In this continent where the nine kingdoms are fighting each other every day, many intelligent beings actually have different positions, and there is no strict distinction between good and evil.

For example, the fact that the Ryan Empire hates the undead extremely does not mean that undead like Amberxiu are truly unforgivable. We cannot stand from Amberxiu's perspective and say that the Ryan Empire is an inhumane cult organization.

This is a question of stance and cannot be simply measured by good and evil.

But the ghost witch is different. It is a naturally evil creature and has been the most cruel and vicious existence since the day it was born.

A hag looks like an ugly, twisted old woman, and is just as ugly on the inside as she looks.

The extreme and twisted nature of these creatures can be seen from the way they reproduce.

The witches cannot bear children of their own, so they steal babies from cradles or even mothers' wombs, and then absorb the poor babies completely. A week later, the witches will give birth to a human-like child.

The baby girl will grow up in human form until her thirteenth birthday, when she will transform into a ghost woman who looks exactly like her mother.

Generally speaking, a witch will give her offspring to the couple who have lost their child. The child will grow up as a normal child until he or she is in his or her teens.

More than ten years is enough time for them to become a real family.

When the ghost woman's soul matures, the child will suddenly change his personality and become cruel and vicious, catching the adoptive parents off guard. But no matter what these parents do, they cannot awaken the child's conscience. Often, after experiencing countless betrayals and injuries, the child is killed by the hands of the child they raised.

And when they are dying, they will see with their own eyes their children turning into ugly ghost-like creatures, and know that they have been raising a monster for the past decade or so, and that this monster grew up by devouring their own children.

This cruel torture will leave mortals' souls riddled with holes, and the hag will take great pleasure in the anger and despair of humans.

This is the nature of hags, their existence is to bring pain to other lives.

After reaching adulthood, a hag will quickly master a large amount of evil magic, and then begin to become arrogant. Some hags even think that gods are no more than that, and that they will be able to trample the gods under their feet sooner or later.

This extreme arrogance makes the witches like to play tricks on humans, which is one of their ways to prove that they are "also gods". Generally speaking, witches will play trading games with humans, such as poisoning a person first, and then appearing in his despair, telling him that he can survive as long as he sacrifices his most beloved family.

In this way, the witch deceives humans into sacrificing their loved ones, and when the truth is revealed, she will happily enjoy the humans' collapsed and desperate expressions.

For this, they are even willing to pay some price.

It can be said that a ghost witch is a creature that is born evil, even more outrageous than the devil in hell.

Amberxiu gave Naomi a detailed explanation of the information about the monster called the witch. Naomi opened her mouth wide and couldn't close it for a long time.

"God, Sylvanus, there are such evil monsters in this world? They eat children, forge a monster and give it to the children's parents to raise... It's too vicious!"

Naomi felt horrified just by listening to Amber's description. Her own people actually encountered such a horrible monster.

Amber continued, "Most of the witches are good at illusions. Large-scale illusions are not difficult for witches. Not only do witches have powerful spellcasting abilities, their claws are strong enough to tear steel apart. Moreover, witches are never alone. What they are best at is confusing humans to become their puppets.

"Even if an entire army is fully prepared, it will still suffer heavy casualties when facing a witch. What's more terrifying is that most witches are good at escaping. If you can't kill them once, they will seek revenge again and again until they kill you! "I heard a rumor that three witches joined forces to create a terrible plague in the capital of the elves, causing cities to become dead zones and killing more than a thousand people. If it weren't for the legendary high elves who drove away the three witches, I'm afraid the casualties would be even greater."

Amber's words made Naomi's face turn pale. It sounded like a very scary monster. Wouldn't her people be in danger?

"Master Ultraman, what should we do now?" Naomi said a little panicked.

"It's difficult. The witch is not that easy to deal with. Only a legendary level person can be sure of dealing with her. If you spend money to hire a professional adventurer team, it will cost at least tens of thousands of gold coins before someone is willing to accept the commission. But this is the price from a few years ago. The prices in the Alchemy City have skyrocketed recently. I'm afraid it will double."

Naomi became even more anxious after hearing what Amber said. Where would she get tens of thousands of gold coins to hire adventurers? Was her people really hopeless? "But..." Amber suddenly changed the subject.

Naomi quickly asked, "But what?"

Amber said: "But I happen to know an expert in dealing with ghosts. With my help, he can guarantee to deal with this ghost for at most 10,000 gold coins."

"Really?" Naomi asked doubtfully. She vaguely felt that something was wrong. Why did these words sound so much like a scam?

Amber Xiu patted his chest and said, "Of course, if you don't believe me, I can swear in the name of the God of the Dead. This expert I know can definitely deal with the ghost woman, and it only costs 10,000 gold coins. If he can't do it, even if the ghost woman runs away, I won't charge a penny."

Naomi said helplessly: "But I don't have that much money. I don't have anything valuable on me."

Amber smiled and said, "That's easy. Aren't you going to rescue your fellow tribesmen? Ten thousand gold coins are definitely enough for their belongings. The natural magic equipment made by druids is very popular in the nine kingdoms. You can provide the service first and pay later."

Naomi always felt something was wrong, but she seemed to have no other choice at the moment.

If we can rescue our tribesmen, then the ten thousand gold coins will definitely be worth it. If the tribe gathers together, it will definitely be enough.

If I fail to rescue the person, what will I lose?

Thinking of this, Naomi immediately agreed.

There is no mistake in the poem, post, content, and read the book on 6, 9, and bar!

"Then let's go find the expert you mentioned now? Where is he?" Naomi urged anxiously.

An Boxiu smiled and said, "Don't worry, he's already here."

After saying this, Amber Xiu's body began to emanate layers of faint light.

The effect of the transfiguration was lifted, and the black-haired boy quickly turned into a white skeleton. He was wearing a black robe, with soul fire burning in his eyes, standing in the air without touching the ground, and holding a long magic wand in his hand.

With this look, there was no need for Amber to introduce himself, Naomi exclaimed: "Lich? You are a lich?!"

There are many kinds of undead. Naomi initially guessed that Amber was a vampire or something, but she didn't expect that he was actually a lich.

Among the undead, the lich is probably the most powerful spellcaster. No wonder his spells are so powerful.

"Wait, you're the expert you're talking about?"

Naomi suddenly felt cheated.

"That's right, I have a lot of experience in dealing with witches, don't worry." Amber Xiu said with great confidence.

But after returning to his lich form, his speech became magical vibrations, sounding like a cold wind blowing through a mass grave, which was extremely creepy.

Naomi still felt something was wrong and continued to question: "But you just said that only legends can deal with the witch alone."

Amber Xiu gently waved the staff in his hand, and the corpses of the mutant rats on the ground exploded one after another. Countless bones in the blurred flesh and blood snapped together and turned into dozens of strangely shaped skeletons.

Amber stood in front of the skeleton army and said to Naomi: "Let me introduce myself again. I am Ultraman Tiga, the legendary lich!"
