Chapter 29: Prophecy of Becoming a God
"How many gold coins can you offer?"
When Amber asked this question, not only was Naomi stunned, but even the witch did not expect it to be so smooth. It took her a long time to react.
The witch said excitedly: "You want money? Okay, I can give you 5,000 gold coins!"
Naomi's heart tightened. Would this lich break the contract for five thousand gold coins?
That shouldn't be the case. After all, they had agreed on 10,000 gold coins before, and the druid gave more.
As expected, Amber Xiu did not agree, but he said to the witch: "It's only five thousand, not enough. The druid offered me fifty thousand gold coins."
Naomi: …
The self-consolation just now is completely meaningless now. This lich is the kind of person who speaks without thinking! The witch was also shocked. The price of 50,000 gold coins is too outrageous. Even if all these druids were killed and sold with skins and flesh, they would not be worth 50,000.
"Oh, haha, you, a lich, are even more deceitful than a witch. I won't waste my time with you. I can only take out 20,000 gold coins. I'll give you a fixed price. Can you make a deal?!"
The witch's offer once again frightened Naomi, as it was twice her price.
Given the lich's personality, he might actually agree.
As if to prove Naomi's worries, Amber suddenly turned around and waved the staff in his hand towards Naomi.
Before Naomi could react, she felt the statue of Silvanus being snatched away from her hand.
Looking closely, it was a glowing arm suspended in mid-air.
Mage's Hand, like Ice Ray, is a very basic spell that almost everyone can cast. But it is not so easy to cast it as fast as Ambershroud can.
Naomi had no experience after all, and she didn't expect Amberhu to change his attitude faster than turning the pages of a book. The statue of Silvanus had just been snatched away, and Amberhu's next spell fell on her.
The dark red light formed a huge cage, trapping Naomi inside. The druid girl found that she couldn't even move her fingers. Human immobilization, this is a relatively high-level spell, which has special effects on humanoid creatures. Before the spell effect ends, Naomi will remain in this state of being at the mercy of others.
After doing all this, Amber turned his head and looked in the direction of the witch, and said to her: "Hand over the money with one hand and the person with the other. Oh, and I want to take the statue of Silvanus away."
The witch laughed strangely, and a mutated rat walked out of the darkness with a small money bag on its back. It was obviously another space pocket.
Amber carefully controlled the wizard's hand to grab the purse, and after repeatedly checking to make sure there were no magic traps, he opened the bag and checked it with confidence.
Soon, Amber Xiu frowned and said, "Why is it only more than 18,000 gold coins?"
The witch said angrily: "This space pocket of mine is worth at least three or four thousand gold coins. How dare you ask me for these two thousand gold coins?!"
An Boxiu said, "Okay, I'll take a loss and give you a discount."
The witch was almost pissed off to death by Amberxiu. This lich was really shameless for money. If she could defeat him, she would definitely tear the lich apart and make it into a toilet.
The transaction between the witch and Amberhu was clearly seen by the druids in the illusion. The black-skinned druid Van Jones clenched his fists so hard that they made a creaking sound when he saw Naomi being immobilized by Amberhu's spell.
Unfortunately, Van Jones was completely powerless and could only hope in his heart: "The undead are indeed despicable and evil creatures! Sylvanus, please save your believers!"
However, the gods did not seem to pay attention to the prayers of a few little druids. Amberxiu and the witch were still standing there, without suffering any punishment from God.
But after Amber Xiu put away the money bag, he was not in a hurry to hand over Naomi. Instead, he asked slowly, "The Alchemy City has been really busy recently. The holy warriors of the Ryan Empire have come to this sewer, the druids have come to the sewer, and even a witch like you has come to the sewer... Why are you here? What's so good about this broken place?"
The witch replied casually, "Don't you know? With your power, you are considered a big shot among the dead. Haven't you heard of the prophecy? The sewers of the Alchemy City contain the secrets of the gods. If you find them, you can be promoted to a god."
"ha?"
Amber Xiu seemed to have heard some huge joke. How could one become a god in such a shabby place?
Hearing the disdain in Amber's tone, the witch said angrily: "Do you think this is fake?"
Amber Xiu did not answer, but changed the subject and said: "Have you found any clues to become a god?"
The witch sneered and said, "Even if there is, would I tell you? Even if I tell you, would you believe it?"
Amber nodded and said, "That makes sense. It seems there is nothing more to ask."
When the witch heard Amber's words, she suddenly felt something was wrong, and the strong sense of crisis made her body stiffen.
She was clearly in darkness, and she had already prepared a spell to teleport. The witch was not good at other things, but she was definitely the best at running away, otherwise how could such a brutal monster live for so long.
Although she didn't know where the crisis came from, the witch still decisively chose to run away.
The teleportation spell was already prepared, and now it only took a thought to cast it. This spell could allow the witch to randomly teleport to a place hundreds of meters away. In this complex sewer, even if she was only teleported ten meters away, there might be several walls between them, which was enough for the witch to escape successfully.
However, just after the teleportation spell was cast, the witch was shocked to find herself in front of Amber, less than ten meters away from him.
"How is that possible!"
A random location within a radius of hundreds of meters, and it happened to be delivered to the enemy?
There is no mistake in the poem, post, content, and read the book on 6, 9, and bar!
The witch was startled, but immediately cast a second teleportation spell. The witch's understanding of teleportation was unparalleled, and she cast it continuously and smoothly, with almost no noticeable pause.
However, this teleportation shocked the witch again, because this time she actually flashed on the spot, moving a distance of less than one meter.
Amberxiu floated quietly in front of the witch, and then saw the witch teleporting frantically like she was having a seizure, but the result was the same every time.
The witch was shocked and said, "A spell that replaces the result. You, you are a wizard from the School of Prophecy?!"
Amber Xiu said approvingly: "It's rare that there are still people who remember the School of Prophecy. I thought this school had been submerged in the long river of time."
The witch knew she was in big trouble. The teleportation spell was no longer effective and she couldn't escape. The only way now was to fight for her life.
Just as the witch was about to use attack magic on Ambersu, the magical light from Ambersu's staff had already fallen on the witch.
The next second, she seemed to be stimulated by something and began to laugh uncontrollably.
The laughter was extremely unpleasant, but the witch couldn't stop.
In just a few seconds, the witch laughed so hard that she bent over, coughed, and her lungs and throat were bleeding. In the end, she could not even stand steadily and could only roll around on the dirty ground.
Tasha's Laugh is a very common control spell. Once hit, the target will fall into uncontrollable laughter and can no longer make any other movements except laughing.
After Amber used the Laughing Magic on the witch, the light of the Immobilization Magic on Naomi also dissipated.
Amber said to the confused Naomi: "Okay, the ghost woman has been controlled by me, and your people should be safe."
Naomi stared at Amberxiu blankly, no longer able to tell what was true and what was false.
"Why are you in a daze? Do you really think I will breach the contract?" Amber Xiu explained.
"But you took her gold coins and I haven't paid yet..." Naomi said in a low voice.
Amber Xiu said proudly: "Hahaha, do you think I can't get these gold coins if she doesn't pay? Naive girl, kill this witch, the gold coins will still be mine. I just want to trick her and find out the secret of this sewer."
Naomi felt that her three views had been greatly impacted in such a short period of time. This world was really terrible, and she wanted to return to the tribe.
