Chapter 419 Qualifications to Serve
The conversation went more smoothly than Amber had imagined.
The character of the mermaid high priest in front of you is quite straightforward. You can't say she is stupid, but she doesn't have too much persecution delusion.
Amber was very envious, because only people who were rarely deceived could develop such a habit.
For someone like Amber Xiu who has been displaced for hundreds of years, people would consider whether he has been drugged when they invite him to have a drink.
The mermaid Ariel is very serious. As long as Ambersu can make a logical guess, Ariel will not argue with him or make any malicious guesses.
Amber told the mermaid high priest all the details about Aiolos, from his origin, his behavior that suggested he had an IQ defect, his ability to be closely connected to the sea, and so on.
When the mermaid high priest heard that Aiolos was looking for a woman named Ariel to marry, he showed an angry expression.
"That Goddess of the Whips actually wants to extend her hand into the realms of other gods. She is indeed a madman."
No woman in a high position can accept being forced to marry. This is not a sadomasochistic love story, but a struggle between race and belief, which is much bloodier than a family ethics drama.
The mermaid high priestess has already made up her mind. If the ugly guy dares to say that he wants to marry her, she will use the trident in her hand to poke him into the crater of the underwater volcano.
Amber Xiu was not so sure, and added: "The above are just my speculations. Aiolos has always claimed to be a follower of Talos. We cannot confirm the real god behind the scenes for the time being."
The mermaid high priest shook his head and said, "It doesn't matter. No matter which god is behind this Aiolos, his actions are disrupting the order of the sea. By Joro, this sea is already in chaos enough, and troubles come one after another."
When he said this, the mermaid high priest couldn't help but look at Amberxiu again.
The biggest trouble of the sea was caused by the lich in front of it. He exiled an entire kingdom, leaving a large piece of the blue sea.
The mermaid high priest asked: "I have a question I would like to ask you. How did you exile an entire kingdom?"
Amber Xiu smiled and said, "The high priest asked too directly. This is a major secret no matter who it is."
The mermaid priest said directly: "I heard that Master Ultraman likes pearl dew very much. I can give you some pearl dew privately. If you need it in the future, you can always come to us mermaids to trade."
"Deal." Amber agreed without thinking.
"Oh, you didn't even ask the price."
"Of course, what I am considering now is no longer the issue of cost. Channels are more important than the price of goods." Amber said calmly.
The elves have already started building air transport routes, and Ambersu has opened up trade routes to several kingdoms. No matter what is sold along this route, even if the other party is doing business at a loss, a large amount of profit will flow into Ambersu's pocket.
So Amberxiu doesn't care about the price at all, he only cares about more varieties of goods and specialties.
He does not engage in business of buying low and selling high. He simply establishes a business network and lets the people in the production and sales places be responsible for their own profits and losses, while Amberxiu extracts corresponding profits from it. As long as this business network can maintain its monopoly position, Amberxiu will never lose money.
The whole world has been scared to the point that they dare not speak loudly to him. Of course, the platform should set the rules for business. Can he still be a profiteer? But the mermaid high priest didn't understand these things at all. Although the mermaid tribe has a large population and a huge power, and they don't have to worry about food and drink, their business form is still very primitive, bartering and self-circulation within the tribe. It's troublesome to explain these complicated concepts to them, so Amber Xiu simply threw out a few key words and let the high priest figure it out himself.
Since he had already agreed, Amberxiu did not hide much and briefly explained the story of the exile of the Unholy Hymn.
The mermaid high priest was surprised and couldn't help but sigh: "Your friend is really great. Even the plan of the Lord of Hell was destroyed by you. The prophecy wizard is more powerful than the rumors. However, according to what you said, the price of exiling a kingdom is very high?"
Amber nodded and said, "The goddess of fate will not allow anyone to manipulate her things at will. My friend has completely disappeared without leaving any trace. So, I usually don't do this."
The mermaid high priest could hear the hidden meaning in Amber's words, which was that when forced to do so, this lich would rather his soul be destroyed than die with you.
There are too few prophecy wizards in this world, and no one can understand the difference between Amberxiu and Mr. Doom. Amberxiu really cannot cut the thread of fate. Amberxiu can only hope that Harvey grows up quickly so that he can be used as a nuclear bomb.
But it doesn’t matter. In the eyes of others, they are all legendary prophecy wizards, so even if Amberxiu can’t do it, it won’t be much different.
"Master Ultraman, I have understood the information you provided. This is indeed a major matter that needs to be reported to the gods. I will hold the ceremony as soon as possible."
The mermaid high priest has also made up his mind that Amber is more terrifying than the Silent Night Pirates and more worthy of cooperation.
Amber Xiu said: "Can I talk to the goddess Izoro? In addition to bringing information, I also want to discuss something with the goddess."
The mermaid priest glanced at Amber and couldn't help but said, "Master Ultraman, do you know what you are talking about? Such an attitude is already blasphemy against the gods."
What does it mean to talk to a goddess? What kind of identity do mortals have to say such things?
Mortals are creatures under the rule of gods. The wind, rain, thunder and lightning in the world, everything is created by gods. With such unequal status, how dare mortals "chat" with gods?
Praying is a humble request for the attention of gods, not a message to gods to let them reply quickly.
This lich's attitude is very improper.
Amber smiled and said, "Believe me, I have great respect for every god, but I do have something important to communicate with the goddess Idrolo. However, this matter has nothing to do with the mermaid tribe. It is my personal request."
Although the mermaid priest didn't want to pay attention to Amber's almost blasphemous request, he still said: "I will report to the goddess, but I can't guarantee whether the goddess is willing to accept your audience."
"Of course, I'll wait for your reply."
The secret conversation ended quickly, and both parties got what they wanted. The mermaid high priest acted decisively and immediately started a large-scale sacrifice.
Goddess Izoro belongs to the absolutely neutral camp. She does not like blood sacrifices, but only likes lively scenes.
Therefore, worshiping the goddess Izoro is very simple. Just offer the tribe’s most abundant harvest to prove that the mermaid tribe is living well, and then the goddess will be happy to communicate with her believers.
The mermaids offered the best cultivated corals, seaweeds, and the fattest fish as sacrifices, and the high priest led the mermaids in singing songs of praise.
Amber Xiu was waiting nearby, thinking to himself, "The singing of these mermaids is really beautiful. No wonder so many people want to capture mermaids as slaves. If they form an idol group and hold a concert tour in the mainland, I wonder if they can make a lot of money."
There is no mistake in the poem, post, content, and read the book on 6, 9, and bar!
Ai Ge came over curiously and said, "If I really summon Izoro, do you have the confidence to convince him to share my faith?"
Every god, even a conceptual god, has a place where faith is needed. Although the God of Alchemy will not actively ask others to believe in him, if there are a large number of believers after the last heavy blow, the God of Alchemy will not fall directly to a weak divine power.
This is the role of faith, which is an extremely precious thing for any deity.
No matter how absolutely neutral Yizhuolo is, can he allow Aige to share his faith with him?
Before, Amber was only 50% sure, but after seeing Lady of the Mist Leila being accepted as a subordinate god by Father of Oak Silvanus, he had a lot of experience with this kind of thing.
Faith is important to gods, so gods cannot give up their believers. When they are hostile, they threaten to kill the believers. When they are cooperative, they tell the other party what they can do to help their believers. As long as there is no complete conflict of position, it is nothing more than negotiating business.
And Amberxiu’s identity is really different now. He can produce many things that even the gods would be excited about.
Didn’t you see that he restored the God of Alchemy from weak divine power to medium divine power in a short period of time? His influence on this plane is so great that even the gods cannot ignore it. He is qualified to sit opposite the gods and throw chips.
Moreover, countless gods are reminding Ambershu that a great war between gods is about to come. The elves are going to kill Rose, the sea gods are starting to compete for faith, and the gambling between the Lord of Dawn and the dragon gods is about to reveal the final outcome... Izoro is not a fool, He also needs help. At this time, He should be more likely to cooperate with others.
After all, it's just a business. Since Amber Xiu is confident in throwing out the chips, he is confident that he can win the bet and even achieve a win-win situation.
The only concern now is whether Yizhuo Luo will give Amber Xiu a chance to communicate.
The sacrificial ceremony was still going on, but Aiolos felt a little restless. He really wanted to take off the mask of the mermaid high priest and see clearly whether this was his wife, but he promised Ambershu to wait patiently, which made him feel very tormented.
Just when Aiolos felt something was wrong, a strange voice came into his head: "Poor mortal, being played like a turtle, unable to see the truth. Aiolos, did your father send you here just to let you be a fool and be deceived again and again?"
The sound was extremely harsh, like something sharp scratching on bone, with neurotic ups and downs.
Aiolos looked around in shock, but he could not sense anyone talking to him. Everyone seemed to be attracted by the sacrificial ceremony and no one paid any attention to him.
"Who are you?" As soon as Aiolos had this thought, the strange voice replied, "Do you want to know who I am? Want to find your real wife? Then come to me, I will tell you the truth. If you don't believe it, you can continue to be a turtle here, hahahaha!"
The neurotic laughter tormented Aiolos's nerves and gave him a splitting headache.
Aiolos looked around again and confirmed that no one noticed him. Then he merged into the sea water and swam in the direction indicated by the voice.
No matter who it is, as long as they can lead him to Ariel, Aiolos will try.
But after he disappeared, Ai Ge and An Boxiu turned their heads in confusion. Why did this guy suddenly run away? Did something happen? However, before they could react, the sacrificial ceremony seemed to have a result.
A divine light fell on the mermaid high priestess, causing her body to begin to radiate colorful light.
A calm but majestic voice came out of the mouth of the mermaid high priest: "As you wish, student of the God of Alchemy, I can give you a chance to explain everything."
