Chapter 263: The Spoils Division Meeting
The gods can strip away the priesthood, but this thing is also very precious to the gods. After the Rose Spider Queen is sent to the kingdom of the God of Alchemy, will he return the stripped priesthood?
There is no restriction on the God of Alchemy to lie and deceive people, and he is in a weak state now. The priesthood of the Rose Spider Queen is a super tonic for him, and it can even allow him to surpass his original limits and leap to a higher level.
Faced with such temptation, will the God of Alchemy give up the benefits?
Moreover, the God of Alchemy had deceived Amber before, and because of this, both the master and the disciple had a knot in their hearts.
Now that the God of Alchemy has brought this up, Amberxiu must seriously consider this issue.
Hecky Stone couldn't help but mutter, "A god who comes at your beck and call, what else can you not trust?"
There was not a weak person among the people present, so naturally everyone heard what Hecky Stone said, and everyone thought the same thing.
The God of Alchemy has done this, how can he not trust it? Just when everyone thought that Amber would agree without hesitation, Amber said: "Teacher, you are right, I really don't trust it. If this is just my spoils, I don't mind taking a gamble to see if you will cheat me again. But not this time, these spoils don't just belong to me. If you can't give a reasonable guarantee, I can only ask other gods for help."
Amber Xiu's words made the members of the Mourning Poets Society feel comfortable. They didn't expect that this lich was always greedy for money, but could be so loyal at the critical moment.
Just when everyone thought that the God of Alchemy would be angry with Amber, the god said calmly: "I knew you would say that. Don't worry, you have no idea the weight of the name of the Mourning Poetry Society. I won't cheat you."
Amber looked at the poet. It seemed that this senior knew the God of Alchemy, so now he had to make the decision.
The poet patted Amber Xiu's shoulder and said, "He is right. Don't worry, your teacher will not lie to you."
Since the poet said so, Amberxiu had no more worries and went straight to the next topic.
"There are four priesthoods that the Rose Spider Queen can strip away. How... do we divide them?"
After this question was raised, the poet first expressed his attitude: "Don't bother with me, this thing is useless to me."
The poet is obviously a being of the same level as the gods, but he is not a god. His refusal should not be a sign of humility. But the poet is the one who made the greatest contribution to this matter. If he refuses, it will be difficult for others to speak up.
Heki Stone was not embarrassed at all and opened his mouth to speak, but Amber glared at him and said, "Go away. Don't you know how much effort you have put in? I'll ask Arthur Lane a few more questions for you later. Don't even think about becoming a priest."
"make a deal!"
Herky Stone agreed very straightforwardly. He didn't expect to be assigned a priesthood position. It would never be his turn. Herky Stone felt that he had made a profit by getting Amber's promise.
After dealing with the vampire who belonged to the atmosphere group, Amber Xiu said to the poet: "Senior, if you don't want anything, it will be difficult for us to divide it. How about you make a request?"
"But the priesthood is really useless to me." The poet stroked his chin and thought for a moment, then said: "I want to hold a concert, but the venue and audience are very troublesome. Please help me prepare it!"
Amber: ...
Or maybe we should give him a priesthood. His music is the real "yin music" that will scare the dead away. Before, Amber Xiu had the urge to die after just listening to it for a few dozen seconds. After a concert, he might be left with only ashes.
However, in order to become a god, I have to fight!
At worst, I can let him go to Ryan to hold a concert, and let Ryan's group of holy warriors ascend to heaven together!
"Okay, I will do my best to help you prepare for the concert, but it may not be possible recently. As you all know, the situation on the mainland is very unstable, and we all need to prepare for the upcoming drastic changes."
The poet said generously: "Don't worry, the dead are immortal anyway."
The ghoul Yugashi also gave up his priesthood, saying that he had not contributed much and that the priesthood of the Rose Spider Queen was not suitable for him. He would rather take some time to find his own way.
It was only then that Amber Xiu realized that Yugashi, like Aige, was a demigod who was only one step away from becoming a god. This kind of demigod who had already made clear his own path was indeed not suitable for absorbing other people's divine duties. If he was not careful, he would always remain at the level of weak divine power, which would be a real loss.
Yugashi didn't want anything in particular, so he just said, "If the Rose Spider Queen's body is still there after she was separated from her priesthood, please give it to me. The spirit of the god really tastes good."
If you don't want either of these two, then the next step will be easy.
There are four priesthoods. The God of Alchemy can take one, and the remaining three are one for the Withered Rose, one for Ambershu, and one for Gareth and his wife. This way, they are exactly divided.
The God of Alchemy saw that Amberxiu and the others had already made the assignment, so he waved his hand and took the Rose Spider Queen away.
"My divine power is too weak now. It will take some time to separate my divine duties. Please wait patiently."
Amber wanted to ask how long it would take, but the God of Alchemy had already disappeared. It seemed that he was also a little impatient to return to the top.
After the battle, members of the Mourning Poetry Society returned to their respective homes.
They came quickly and left without any delay. Soon, only Amberxiu and the Dead Rose, as well as those low-level undead wandering around, were left in the dungeon.
Amber said to Withered Rose: "After you get the priesthood, what are you going to do? If you become a god, you will be constrained by Io, and it will be difficult to deal with Ryan yourself."
Withered Rose said: "Of course I will not be promoted to a god. I am not qualified to face the holy light of the Lord of Dawn. I will use this priesthood to exchange for the help of other gods, so that I can destroy Ryan more easily."
The words of the Withered Rose also reminded Amber Xiu that once he was promoted to a god, the rules would be completely different. The Lord of Dawn could not directly burn him to death with a holy light, but after becoming a god, the Lord of Dawn would have fewer restrictions on what he could do to him.
Of course, gods usually hide in their own kingdoms, and it is difficult for outsiders to find them. For example, if the Rose Spider Queen had not gone mad and attacked Amber directly, she would not have ended up like this.
But there is always a chance of something happening. What if the Lord of Dawn finds him?
With one blow from this man, even if Amberxiu becomes a god, he will be reduced to ashes.
But soon, Amber Xiu said firmly: "No matter what, I will always be promoted to a god. Even if it is dangerous, I will give it a try."
The road is there, the only road. Even if it is full of thorns, we can only keep moving forward.
"I knew you would say that. Let's have a few more children before you become a god," said the Withered Rose.
This statement could easily be misunderstood, but it also reminded Amber Xiu.
"Oh no, I forgot about Melina, where is she?!"
Amber had comforted Melina before and asked her to stay with the drow elves. The subsequent battle was very intense and lasted less than ten hours in total.
Amber was so busy that he completely forgot about his daughter.
Withered Rose also showed a surprised expression. Her daughter was missing?
The two of them quickly split up and searched for Melina everywhere in the city.
There is no mistake in the poem, post, content, and read the book on 6, 9, and bar!
This dungeon has been trampled over and over again by Gareth so many times that its appearance has changed drastically.
Amber flew several circles and finally found Melina, who looked confused, in a ruin.
This child, still maintaining his drowsy appearance, was hiding in a collapsed house.
Seeing Amber return, Melina said blankly: "Father, what happened? I waited here for a few hours, and suddenly there was an earthquake, and then this place collapsed."
"Silly boy, can't you run?"
"I ran away because I was afraid you wouldn't be able to find me when you came back."
Amber: ...
Melina was really lucky that she was not in the path of Gareth's direct charge, otherwise, she would have been seriously injured if not killed.
This time, Amber Xiu could only admit that it was his fault. He didn't expect the child to be so honest. He must educate him well in the future.
Amber said to Melina: "It's okay now, let's go back."
Melina asked curiously, "Go back? Have you found the mastermind behind this?"
"It's already been done."
"Ah? But I haven't done anything yet?"
Melina was depressed. She had finally managed to get in and was just about to use her intelligence to wash away her reputation as a fool.
How come it was solved suddenly?
If she goes back like this, won't she still be called a fool by others?
Seeing Melina's expression, Amber Xiu laughed and said, "It's okay. I'll teach you another lesson. History is written by the victors. Now we are victorious, and the mastermind behind the scenes will die the same way. You can take all the credit for yourself. Don't worry, no one will snatch it from you."
"But, isn't this fake? In fact, I didn't do anything." Melina said depressedly.
Amber Xiu smiled and said, "Silly child, only fools care about the process. If you don't want to be a fool, start with this. Let those who call you a fool believe that you used your intelligence to solve the problem. You can make up the specific process yourself."
After bringing the pensive Melina to the side of the Withered Rose, Amberxiu retired with his mission accomplished.
This time, I originally came here just for the spore powder of the mushroom man, but I didn't expect to earn a priesthood. I am only one step away from becoming a god, which makes me feel really happy.
Back in his alchemy factory, Amber found the raw materials needed for sunscreen from the three types of spore powder, and then sent a message to the Withered Rose.
After such a long period of cooperation, the two no longer needed to discuss transportation and purchasing fees. Withered Rose did not even discuss the price, but only said that it would be collected and sent over in batches.
After finishing this, Amber opened his private space again and walked to Trisna's body.
Everyone has forgotten that this drow mistress, a legendary drow blessed by three goddesses, her corpse is also of extremely high value.
Just as Amber was thinking about how to use this corpse, the black dagger that was inserted into Trisna's body turned into liquid and merged into the corpse.
Then, the corpse crawled up from the ground, and the effect of stopping time was completely ineffective.
When Cuisina stood up again, her eyes had turned dark. She said to Amber Xiu in a strange voice: "You took all the benefits. How are you going to compensate me for my losses?"
