Chapter 418: Can Do Anything
The chief priest of the mermaid tribe slowly swam out of a gorgeous conch, surrounded by a group of merman warriors.
Her fish tail is very long and colorful, which is particularly eye-catching in the sea.
"Rainbow Tail Mermaid?"
Amberxiu had heard of the rainbow-tailed mermaids. This race was naturally much stronger than other mermaids. It was said that the stronger the magic power in their bodies, the more gorgeous the color of their tails. This was a race whose strength difference could be seen at a glance.
This high priest's fish tail is as beautiful as a rainbow, he must be a legend.
However, when he saw the face of the high priest, Amber was speechless, because the other party was wearing a gorgeous coral mask decorated with pearl shells and other ornaments, and it was impossible to see what he looked like.
Looking back at Aiolos, the boy was so anxious that his face turned red. He had gone through so much trouble to find an "Ariel" but couldn't even see her face. How could he recognize his wife? Amber Xiu could only comfort him and said, "Don't worry, there will be a chance. Be patient."
Aiolos gritted his teeth and endured it. He had sworn to Talos that no matter what happened, he would listen to his friend.
The mermaid high priest didn't know any of this. He came to Ambersu surrounded by his companions.
"Master Ultraman, Ms. Aige, nice to meet you. I am the priestess of the Rainbow Tail tribe. You can call me Ariel."
Amber tried to compare Ariel in front of him with the princess of the Kingdom of Angry Tide. In terms of voice alone, the mermaid priestess sounded much better.
Mermaids are natural singers. Even untrained mermaids can sing songs so beautiful that they would make humans blush. However, the size of this High Priest Ariel is a bit exaggerated. Including the fish tail, she is over three meters long. She is also obviously much larger than other mermaids. Compared with her, Her Royal Highness the Princess of the Kingdom of Rage is probably only as tall as her fish tail.
"Your Excellency the High Priest, it is an honor to meet you. This visit was a little sudden, so I did not prepare any gifts. I only have five hundred Isi rays. Perhaps this gift is the most suitable for the mermaids now."
The high priest had heard of this, but he did not expect there to be so many of them. There were at least 500 corpses left, so they must have killed even more Isi rays.
This is indeed the best gift for the mermaid. Nothing is more gratifying than the corpse of an enemy.
The high priest said happily: "Thank you for your contribution to the sea. These demons should have died long ago."
"You're welcome. After all, we are here to seek an audience with the goddess Izoro. We need to trouble you, the high priest, to communicate with the spirit, so we naturally have to show some sincerity."
Amberxiu's words surprised the fishman high priest a little.
This doesn't look like an undead tyrant who would attack at the slightest disagreement. Isn't this quite polite? The doubtful high priest asked again: "Communicating with the gods is my duty, but Master Ultraman, why do you want to see the goddess?"
The biggest problem is here. Communicating with the gods is a very grand ritual. It is impossible to ask the gods for help for a small matter. The high priest is more worried that these undead have some conspiracy and take advantage of the time when he communicates with the gods to do something that harms the mermaid tribe or is detrimental to the gods.
Before confirming Amber's true intentions, she would not help summon the goddess Idrolo even if it meant going to war with the undead.
Feeling the other party's vigilant eyes, Amber Xiu said calmly: "The reason is actually very simple. I have intelligence that may cause chaos in the ocean, and I need to report it to the goddess Izoro. I know that He is an absolutely neutral god and will not favor one side, so I hope to remind the goddess Izoro and let her prepare in advance."
The high priest said helplessly: "Master Ultraman, what you said is equivalent to saying nothing. Besides, you don't live in the sea, so isn't it a bit far-fetched to say that you are doing this for the stability of the entire sea?"
"Oh, why do you say that? I have always been a peace-loving person. Does the high priest have any misunderstandings about me?" Amber asked.
The high priest thought, is this lich simply lying, or is there some other conspiracy? How can this person with such a good reputation say that he loves peace? "Master Ultraman, you also understand that the position of the goddess Izoro is neutral, so as her believers, we will not have any special discrimination against the undead. But as an undead, it seems a little insincere to say that I love peace."
Amber sighed and said to the high priest, "I knew it. I felt it when I first arrived. The mermaids must have some misunderstanding about me. Mr. Nepres from the Blue Algae Tribe was also shocked when he heard my name, as if I was going to eat mermaids."
"Don't blame him." The high priest said calmly: "Anyone would be afraid of a lich who exiled an entire kingdom and slaughtered tens of thousands of dragons and other creatures."
"Look, isn't this just a misunderstanding?" Amber smiled and said, "Let's not talk about the Kingdom of Unholy Songs for now. It's too complicated to explain in a few words. Let's talk about the dragon clan. I came to save the overseas dragon clan, lest they be deceived by the Githyanki and attempt to counterattack the mainland. Thanks to the favor of the goddess of fate, I successfully solved the problem of the Githyanki. Now the overseas dragon clan is unharmed, and this matter can be considered a success.
"As for the massacre of tens of thousands of people, that's even more unfair. I even made my own phylactery using alchemy. I don't need to massacre humans to obtain souls."
The high priest was confused by Amber's words and asked again, "Where are the Ryans?"
"Lion sent seven legends and an entire legion, but I was merciful. Although I defeated them, they left without even being injured. If you don't believe me, I have a memory crystal here that records everything that happened before in detail."
Amber handed over a memory crystal, which was exactly what he wanted to spread to the whole world, so that the Ryan people would completely lose their moral high ground.
The high priest took the crystal but did not examine it.
Since this lich can produce this thing, it must be true. There is no need to tell such a lie that will be exposed at the slightest provocation.
"You don't kill the Ryan people either?" the high priest asked curiously.
Ryan and the undead are mortal enemies. If the lich wins the battle, how can he be worthy of his own race if he doesn't turn those seven legends into puppets?
Amber Xiu said helplessly: "As I said, I have always loved peace. I have eliminated the war between dwarves and elves. I have encountered several active provocations from the Lions, but I have always just captured them alive and let them go.
"A friend of mine once said that he hopes to create a world where all races can live in peace. I think this ideal is great, so I also want to do my part. This time I came to see the goddess Izoro for the peace of the sea. But the information we are talking about is too important to say it in public, lest it leak out.
"If you find me trustworthy, High Priest, we can discuss this in private."
The high priest stared at Amber's face, but there was no expression on that skull face, and he could not judge what the lich was thinking.
She clenched the crystal in her hand and finally said, "Then please be patient, Master Ultraman. I will give you an answer soon."
After saying this, the mermaid high priest returned to his conch palace.
There is no mistake in the poem, post, content, and read the book on 6, 9, and bar!
As soon as he entered the conch, the high priest couldn't wait to check the images in the memory crystal.
It wouldn't matter if she didn't watch it, but after watching it she was even more shocked than before.
This lich actually has a paladin under his command? A paladin fought seven legendaries and won? How powerful is this person? More importantly, such a paladin is actually working for the lich, and the Lord of Dawn has no opinion on this? If this god had any dissatisfaction, the paladin would have broken his oath and fallen long ago. It is impossible for him to possess such a powerful holy light.
The high priest felt his head was in a mess. He hadn't communicated with the land for so many years. What happened to the people on earth? Even the paladins were working for the liches?
But doubts and shocks could not change the truth of the matter. Perhaps what the lich said was true, and the Holy Light was really on his side. In other words, he represented justice better than Ryan.
The Lord of Dawn did not kill the lich with a divine punishment, which means that this is very likely true.
"A peace-loving lich? That's even more outrageous than a greedy undead tyrant."
The high priest sighed, and then called all the high-ranking members of the mermaid tribe over. The memory crystal circulated in the mermaids' hands, and then there were exclamations one after another. When everyone was shocked by the scene recorded in it, the high priest raised the most important question: if the lich really came for peace, would he agree to summon the goddess Idrolo?
All the mermaids were silent, but in the end, they gradually expressed their agreement.
This result was also within the high priest's expectations. A lich was more righteous than a paladin, so his words carried great weight. What he said about the chaos in the ocean was very likely to happen.
In this case, this matter must be told to Goddess Idro.
After a while, Amber was invited into the conch and sat face to face with the Ariel High Priest.
"Master Ultraman, there are only two of us here. There is a secret magic barrier inside this conch shell. No one can possibly know our conversation here. Now, please tell me, what is the big event that could cause chaos in the ocean?"
Amber Xiu did not keep the secret and said directly: "High Priest, I suspect that the god of the Kuo-Toa fish people is planning to seize the faith of other gods. He wants the faith of the Kingdom of Wrath of Tide, the mermaid tribe, and even other marine races."
The high priest showed a surprised expression.
Fighting for faith? Every fight for faith is the most intense war. This sea has experienced more than one large-scale melee, all because of large-scale conflicts of faith.
After all, there is only so much living space. If you have more believers, others will have fewer believers.
If it was that Kuo Tao fishman goddess...there is no doubt that she is a lunatic and can do anything!
