Chapter 317: Deepening Cooperation
Amber Xiu actually didn’t quite understand why those gods were so concerned about the mortals’ territory.
You are already immortal, why don't you do something you like? Why do you have to compete with ants? Forget Zariel, after all, he has a grudge against those Hell Knights, so it is understandable that he wants revenge.
But what about you, the dragon goddess Tiamat?
In Amber's impression, nine out of ten cults in history were created by Tiamat.
How much hatred and resentment is there?
But precisely because of Tiamat's abnormal malice towards the mortal world, Amberthus was certain that the goddess was plotting something, and it was very likely that her plan was completely different from Zariel's.
Mr. Doom will deal with Ryan's invasion, so what Amber needs to deal with seriously is the gods.
We should be able to get some information from Shar, after all, Tiamat and Shar had an alliance. Moreover, Amber remembered that when he stabbed the drow with his dagger, a piece of dragon scale on its body was automatically lost, which clearly showed that Tiamat was deliberately helping Shar complete her plan.
In other words, Tiamat had known for a long time that Shar was going to turn against her, and perhaps she had even gained some benefits from it.
Since the two goddesses have a good relationship, it is very likely that Shar knows what Tiamat's plan is.
As for whether Shar is willing to betray his friend, that depends on the price.
Shar is a god with no credibility, otherwise she would not have betrayed the Spider Queen Rose.
Shar can betray anyone as long as the price is high enough.
However, it is not easy to summon Shar. Amberthus does not have a second artifact of light to desecrate, nor does he have as many slaves as the Withered Rose to sacrifice hundreds of people at will.
Amber touched his chin and decided to ask the Withered Rose for help.
Time is running out and he needs to figure out everything as soon as possible, otherwise there will be accidents in the upcoming battle.
Amber's goal is to stabilize the Unholy Hymn and drag Ryan into the quagmire of war by any means. If Ryan destroys the Unholy Hymn with ease, the morale of other kingdoms will surely be low, and then they will be defeated one by one.
By that time, Ryan's family will be the only one in power. There's no point in fighting anymore. You might as well dig a hole and bury yourself.
Amber took out the Codex of the Dead and sent a message to Withered Rose: [Ms. Rose, can you please do me a favor? I need to summon the goddess Shar. I want to discuss some business with her.]
Withered Rose quickly replied: [That's fine, but I have some bad news for you.]
Amber's fingertips paused. Bad news? What went wrong? Was he finally going to have to ask for Melina's child support? [Dead Rose: I sent people to collect the iron-blooded general's hair, but the red hair they collected didn't seem to come from the same person. I guess there are other people with red hair in the city, and they were swept into the garbage dump after they fell, and then mixed with the others.]
Amber Xiu breathed a sigh of relief. It turned out that he didn't want money. That's good, that's good.
[Ultraman Tiga: Does different hair have any effect? 】
[Dead Rose: It's a matter of time. Using my legendary grace remotely will take a long time to take effect. It will take at least a day, and it can't be effective on multiple people at the same time. I can't tell which hair is the target. I have to try them one by one, and then send people to get the information and report. If I make a few mistakes, it will waste too much time.]
Amberxiu originally hoped that the Withered Rose could help delay Ryan's dispatch of troops. If he tried to use these hairs one by one, it would probably not be able to delay the time.
Amber thought for a moment, then replied to Withered Rose: [Wait for me to come over. I can use the teleportation array now.]
[Dead Rose: Okay, I'll wait for you. 】
In the Mercury City in the Underdark, Withered Rose put down the Codex of the Dead and quickly walked to her own cloakroom.
As the queen of the Underdark, Withered Rose doesn't have many clothes, because the undead don't have much demand for them. In the past, Withered Rose didn't think there was anything wrong with it, and a few dresses were enough.
But now she felt that she had too few nice clothes, and that guy was particularly lustful. If she wore her old clothes, it would be difficult to leave a deep impression on him.
Withered Rose never thought that she would have to choose clothes to please men one day, not even when she was alive. At that time, she only had the responsibility of the Lion royal family in her mind, and there was no feeling of love at all.
Until the last time, when she was most desperate, Amber brought her a glimmer of hope.
The dead are not really heartless, but there is only an obsession left deep in their souls, and only things related to the obsession can affect the emotions of the dead.
Once the other person is closely connected with the obsession, he or she becomes a part of the obsession and becomes the indispensable person.
Withered Rose didn't dare to spend too much time because she knew Amber's habits. This lich was efficient and would be teleported over soon.
So it only took a few minutes for Withered Rose to change into a gorgeous white dress.
She hadn't worn white for many years. After becoming a ghost, she got used to black.
Not long after, the teleportation array in the palace lit up, and Amber Xiu came to the dark area again. When he saw the withered rose in a white dress, he was also stunned. He had never seen the queen wearing white before, and now it was quite stunning.
Withered Rose noticed Amber's pause and immediately smiled sweetly. It seemed that she had chosen the right outfit.
However, before Withered Rose could ask for his opinion, the unromantic lich said, "Ms. Rose, give me those hairs. I can tell which one is the iron-blooded general's hair."
Withered Rose glanced at Amber and thought that the dress was not pretty enough.
Her Majesty the Queen, who was in a bad mood, brought Amber to another huge palace, and the collected long hair was put away one by one.
Amberxiu did not keep the person in suspense. He shook the dice of fate and quickly found the hair belonging to the iron-blooded general Rachel Angelo. He was lucky because three of the dozen hairs belonged to him. They were perfect for casting spells.
But Amber thought about it, and said to Withered Rose: "Perhaps, we can change the plan. We should not attack Rachel Angelo right from the beginning."
Amber picked out five of the hairs and said, "These hairs come from Rachel Angelo's subordinates. If we start with these people, what do you think will happen?"
Withered Rose thought for a moment and understood what Amber meant: "Do you want to scare that Iron-blooded General?"
Amber nodded and said, "Yes, from what I know about Ryan, if this general becomes an undead, Ryan will only announce that someone assassinated this iron-blooded general, and then replace the general to lead the troops. The result will not be much different. Instead, it will make Ryan's soldiers want to avenge this iron-blooded general, and their combat effectiveness may be stronger.
There is no mistake in the poem, post, content, and read the book on 6, 9, and bar!
"But if we start with the people around Rachel Angelo, we can do it one by one, and there is no need to kill them all at once. This will make them panic and not know what is going on. This will actually delay time."
Withered Rose agreed with Amber's opinion. Although she had a deep hatred for Ryan, she would never underestimate this empire.
Withering Rose said: "Okay, I will control the strength. However, there is still a delay in the transmission of information, so I'm afraid the effect will not be very good."
Long-distance communication has always been the biggest problem, otherwise the group chat of the Codex of the Dead would not be considered a magical artifact.
The most popular way to transmit information now is to send messages via teleportation arrays, which is really not affordable for ordinary people. Withering Rose is not short of money, but it is not easy for her spies to enter Ryan, and it is impossible for them to go back and forth frequently. Doing so will only make Ryan find something wrong.
Amber Xiu laughed and said, "I am here to help you solve this problem."
Amberxiu opened his private space and snapped his fingers, and several little undead balls came out, carrying a huge mechanical mirror on their bodies.
Withered Rose looked at the mirror curiously and asked, "What is this? An alchemical tool?"
Amber reached out and pressed the switch, activating the magic mirror, then muttered, "Mirror, mirror, connect to Ms. Misty."
After a while, the image of Lady Misty Leila appeared in the mirror.
Leila smiled and said to Amber Xiu: "We just separated not long ago, why, do you miss me?"
Withered Rose narrowed her eyes. She didn't know this god, but she felt that the tone of the two people's conversation was not right.
The Withered Rose could send a bunch of slaves to Ambersu, but they were just slaves. The lady in front of her was obviously not in a master-servant relationship, which made her feel uneasy.
Amber Xiu said quickly: "Let me introduce you, Lady Rose. This is Lady Mist Leila, a deity who is temporarily staying in the Emerald Dream Forest."
Withered Rose was stunned for a moment: "God?"
"I'll explain the details to you later." After Amberxiu finished talking to the Withered Rose, he said to Leila, "Goddess, this is my closest ally. This communication is also for you to get to know each other. Madam Rose owns an entire underground kingdom. I believe these beliefs will be very beneficial to you."
Leila took a look at the Withered Rose and could tell that the Withered Rose had special feelings for Amber, but the goddess did not feel jealous.
The values of gods are very different from those of mortals. It is not simply about possession. As long as it does not affect the relationship between Ambersu and Him, Leila does not mind how many partners Ambersu has in the mortal world.
But the gods cannot do that. Amberxiu can forget about sleeping with other goddesses again, because that would be the beginning of another war between gods.
After hearing that the Withered Rose owned an entire kingdom, Leila became somewhat interested and asked, "Are you willing to provide me with faith?"
Withered Rose had never expected the topic to change so quickly, and for a moment she didn't know how to respond.
Amber Xiu said quickly: "Ms. Rose, I know you don't believe in any gods, and Ms. Mist needs our help, and She will do her best to repay us. Please believe me."
After hearing this, Withered Rose smiled and said, "Okay, I'll do as you say. From today on, I will make all creatures in the Underdark become believers of the Lady of the Mist."
