Chapter 460 Can I Trust You?
Amberxiu didn't know how the Ryan people escaped from there. He only knew that it was not easy to pass through the seabed.
Even if you dive deep into the sea and avoid the terrifying thunder above, there are still countless whirlpools on the seabed, and these strange ocean currents cut the seabed into pieces, like a maze.
Either pass through this maze-like seabed rock formation, or rush directly into the whirlpool above to see whether the water flow is stronger or your body is harder.
This is definitely not a normal natural environment. It is either a masterpiece of gods or created by some legendary wizard with a bad taste using the world weaving technique.
Amber had seen the golden desert before, so he was not surprised. In that era when magic flourished, the abuse of magic was very common. Floating cities overlooked the human world, and the wizards thought they had touched the realm of the gods. In the end, with a bang, the entire magic civilization turned to ashes.
Amber looked around, then turned and looked behind him.
Next to Amber, Ariel was floating in the sea, looking at everything in front of her curiously.
After being blessed with the ability to breathe underwater, Ariel can also stay underwater for a long time.
At this time, she had already put on close-fitting underwater light armor, which made her more beautiful than a mermaid.
This is underwater combat armor specially built by the Kingdom of Rage. It is made of special sea beast skins and can only be owned by high-ranking generals.
"Actually, you don't have to follow me." Amber waved his finger and said to Ariel.
It is not easy to communicate on the seabed. Non-marine races cannot make stable sounds in the sea. Amberxiu can only use some auxiliary spells to achieve this effect.
It’s a pity that Ariel is not a ghost, so she can’t communicate through soul connection. She can only use sign language and voice transmission to communicate.
Amber took the risk to go to the sea, and even Hecky Stone didn't want to follow, but Ariel followed. Amber didn't know what she was thinking, couldn't she just wait on the boat?
Ariel opened her mouth and blew out bubbles, but she found that she couldn't make a steady sound like Amberxiu, so she could only respond in sign language: "Actually, I have been curious since I was a child, what is in this sea."
This was a lie, and Ambersu didn't even need to use the power of prophecy to sense it.
Amber Xiu could only say to Ariel: "Princess, if you can't be honest, then I advise you to go back."
Seeing her lie exposed, Ariel could only say: "I can't let you take risks alone. This concerns the future of the Kingdom of Rage."
If possible, Ariel really wanted to take Amber back with her.
Even though she knew that Amber was a lich, Ariel was still afraid that he would get into danger in this strange sea.
If this is the case, the future of the Kingdom of Rage is over.
Now the Kingdom of Fury can do without her princess, but it must not give up the alchemy factory project.
Even if Amber is a lich, theoretically he can be reborn after death, but Ariel doesn't dare to gamble. What if this is a secret realm left behind by a god, and there is something in it that can directly kill the lich?
Even though she knew it was irrational, Ariel still decided to follow.
Ariel is not completely joking with her own life. She has the artifact given by Talos, which should be able to save her life at the critical moment.
Precisely because she was confident, Ariel wanted to take the risk with Amber.
Amber Xiu really had no choice but to let her follow.
"I plan to go inside this underwater maze. The whirlpool above is too scary and there is no way to pass through it easily."
Ariel also agreed with Amber's idea. If you break into the whirlpool, you will soon be dizzy by the current and cannot even control the direction, let alone enter it.
However, this underwater maze is probably not easy to break into. Over the years, no one knows how many dangerous marine creatures are hiding in it.
Ariel picked up the hammer at her waist and said to Amber, "I'll go first, you follow me!"
"ah?"
In his life, Amber Xiu had rarely enjoyed the privilege of having others pave the way for him.
When he was an adventurer, Amber was a prophecy mage, and he was always the one who walked in front and used his premonition to sense danger. Later, when he stopped being an adventurer, Amber had to rely on himself because he had no teammates.
Ariel actually stood in front of him to make way for him. This treatment really touched Amberxiu.
However, this kind of thing is unnecessary.
Amber Xiu just waved his hand, and dozens of "small fry type 1" the size of fingers flew out from his private space and formed an array in front of the two of them.
"Your Highness, have you forgotten that I am a lich? How can a lich lack cannon fodder to explore the way?"
Ariel's face turned red. She had really forgotten about this matter. She only thought about protecting Amber's safety and completely forgot his identity. She had no choice but to retreat to Amber's side.
Amberxiu commanded the undead to clear the way and began to enter this strange underwater maze.
The seabed rocks that make up the maze have been polished by ocean currents for countless years, and they appear very smooth and are also very hard.
Amber tested it and found that ordinary spells could only leave traces but could not directly destroy it.
As the two went deeper into the maze, they thought they would encounter many dangers, but to their surprise, the small undead spirits that cleared the way did not come under any attack.
This maze is not without life, but it is afraid of Amber and Ariel.
These sea creatures were all hiding, and occasionally their breath of life would be captured by Type I small fish, but they ran very fast and could not be caught up at all.
Amber asked Ariel in confusion: "That's strange, didn't you say it's very dangerous here?"
Ariel shook her head and answered helplessly: "I'm not sure either. This is my first time entering the Thunder Sea. Perhaps they can sense our power?"
After all, they are two legends, so it is not surprising that they can scare away these underwater creatures.
But Amber Xiu still felt that it was abnormal, because the intelligence of marine creatures was not very high. The worse the environment, the stronger and more aggressive the creatures living in this area should be. This is in line with the laws of nature.
If this creature encounters an invader it has never seen before, it will definitely take a bite to taste it instead of running away.
There is no mistake in the poem, post, content, and read the book on 6, 9, and bar!
"Your Highness, I don't think something is going on. Let's wait here for a while."
Amberxiu stopped and controlled the small cannon fodder to continue going deeper into the underwater maze, moving forward.
As the distance between the two grew, the cannon fodder was finally attacked.
In the darkness, two thick tentacles shot out, instantly wrapped up the two small cannon fodders, and then quickly returned to the darkness.
A low roar was heard in the darkness, as if the sea beast that attacked had swallowed the two undead souls and was poisoned as a result.
There were constant rumbling noises. This sea beast was probably very huge, and the poison only made it uncomfortable, not fatal.
Amber Xiu carefully sensed the other party's movements from a long distance. When the seabed became calm again, he said to Ariel, "It seems that the problem lies with the two of us."
Ariel asked in confusion, "What's the problem?"
"My undead troops will be attacked by sea beasts, but we two won't. So, there must be something about the two of us that these sea beasts are afraid of, and it is definitely not that the sea beasts can sense how powerful we are."
Although both of them are legends, Amber has been carefully restraining his dark magic, and Ariel has also been very cautious and has not revealed any aura. It is impossible for these sea beasts to know that the two are not easy to mess with from such a long distance.
So there must be something about these two people that makes these sea beasts afraid.
"Although I don't know what you mean, this should be a good thing, right? Why do you say this is a problem?"
Ariel felt that she could not keep up with Amber's thinking, and Ariel had a strange sense of déjà vu. Had she seen this situation somewhere before?
Amber explained: "We have never been to this place, and these sea beasts have never seen us, so what are they afraid of? If we can find this key, perhaps we can understand this sea area better. I have a feeling that we will have extraordinary gains from this adventure."
Amber Xiu's confidence made Ariel's sense of déjà vu even stronger, but she knew that now was not the time to think about this problem, so she could only humbly ask: "Then how do we find it? Throw out the things on your body one by one and try?"
Amber shook his head and said, "Don't bother. Anything that can affect these terrible monsters is definitely not ordinary stuff. Princess, the hammer in your hand is the artifact given by Talos, right? I guess it may be this thing that affects those sea beasts. It's also very simple to verify. Let's separate and let me go deeper into the maze alone. I will know if those sea beasts will attack me."
"No!" Ariel refused decisively.
"We already have the amulet, though we don't know what it is, so why take the risk?"
Ariel didn't understand, she just wanted to keep Amber safe.
Amber Xiu insisted, "Your Highness, you have been to the battlefield before. Would you use a weapon you don't understand to fight the enemy? Even if you know that this weapon is very powerful. We can still scare away these sea beasts now, but what if we go deeper and encounter more powerful monsters? They may not be scared away.
"If the other party chooses to attack, we can't be unaware of what the sea beasts are afraid of, right? We clearly have a trump card that can restrain the other party, but we can't use it at the critical moment. Isn't that too dangerous?"
What Amber Xiu said seemed to make sense. Ariel thought for a long time but couldn't think of any way to refute it. But she still insisted, "You must not take risks. Why don't you exit the maze first and let me do the test?"
Amber was speechless. He thought Ariel had grown up, but it turned out that she was still as stubborn as before.
Amber Xiu had no choice but to say to Ariel: "This is the first time I've seen someone willing to take risks for the lich. If you don't believe it, take this."
Amber handed a small silver box to Ariel.
After Ariel took it, she asked in confusion, "What is this?"
Amber said very seriously: "This is the lich's life box. Once my body dies, I will be reborn here. I will entrust my life to you for safekeeping. Princess, can I trust you?"
