Chapter 499 Destined

An Boxiu posted a message in the chat group saying that his death was approaching, but after a while there was no response.

Only the dwarf vampire responded as usual, but his reply was: [What are you pretending to be? I don’t understand this time. ]

Amber was really speechless this time. Why did the dwarf not believe the truth every time he told it? Was this guy cursed by the Lord of Knowledge? Was he unable to distinguish between truth and falsehood in his life?

But this time, it wasn't just the dwarf vampire who didn't believe it, almost all the group members didn't believe it.

Especially the Dullahan Gareth, who even asked back: [Who do you owe money to? You actually have to use this trick to avoid the debt? ]

[Pale Little Skeleton: You want to shirk your debt to the devil? There's no need. It's not like you can't afford it.]

[Mute: What kind of joke is this? You are a lich, don't tell me you have made enough money. ]

[Dead Rose: If you are tired recently, come to the Underdark to take a break and train those drow elves. ]

[Don't like humans: This is probably just another foreshadowing. Next he will definitely tell us something shocking, and let us applaud enthusiastically. I've seen through you. Let's skip this boring foreplay and get down to business.]

…

Watching the group members talking and laughing, Amber Xiu could only repeat one sentence: [No foreshadowing, this is what I want to say. Friends, my death is coming, this is the destined ending of the prophecy mage. ]

This time, there was real silence.

Amber Xiu began to settle accounts with his friends in the group as if he was writing a suicide note: [Senior Aige, a large number of Kou Tao fishmen will gather under your command in the future. Although the power of faith provided by the awakened Kou Tao fishmen will be weakened, this power should be enough to support you to achieve your wish, and our contract will be completed.]

[Gareth, I will hand over all the overseas alchemy business to Isabel. She is my student, and her ability is still lacking, but if she is given a few years, her achievements in alchemy will surpass mine. Just leave it to her without worry.]

[Ms. Rose, I will send all the information of the mercury zombies to the Underdark. With the current scale of mercury zombies, it should not be difficult to carry out subsequent reproduction. As for the plan to destroy Ryan, I am afraid I will not be able to complete it, but I will hand over all the arrangements on Ryan's side to you...]

Amber Xiu wrote a lot of things in a very eloquent manner. This time, everyone finally understood that Amber Xiu was not joking, but was really preparing for his funeral.

For the members of the Mourning Poets Society, this was the first time they had ever seen such a situation.

The dead are all immortal and will only disappear due to accidents. No dead soul knows when he will die, so he will not arrange his own funeral affairs like a terminally ill old man.

They had never seen a situation like Amber's.

Everyone was silent, only the Withered Rose couldn't believe it and interrupted Amber's last words.

[Dead Rose: Shut up now and wait for me to come find you. ]

This declaration put an end to Amber's long speech, and Amber had no choice but to close the Codex of the Dead and wait for the arrival of the queen. He himself did not expect that making a last will could make the Withered Rose so excited.

Didn’t I leave all Ryan-related connections and resources to her? I really tried my best.

Withered Rose arrived very quickly, and brought Melina with her.

As soon as she saw Amber Xiu, Withered Rose grabbed his arm and said in a cold tone: "Open your private space, let's go in and talk."

When the creditor came to his house, Amberxiu had no choice but to do as he was told.

After entering the messy private space, Withered Rose confirmed that the flow of time had been adjusted to one year inside and one day outside. She then sat down and said to Amber Xiu: "What's going on? Why are you going to die out of the blue?"

Amberxiu had no choice but to tell Selwyn about the suicide note he had sent.

Withered Rose said doubtfully: "It's just a suicide note. What does it have to do with you?"

Amber Xiu could only explain: "It's hard for outsiders to understand, but you can think of this suicide note as a bow. Once a special bow appears in the story, it will definitely shoot the fatal arrow. In my eyes, the arrow has already pierced my soul and it cannot be changed."

At the moment when the suicide note turned into a scroll, the future that Selwyn tried so hard to cover up also appeared in Ambershu's soul. He saw a blurry picture, but he knew clearly that it was his own death.

Withered Rose said unwillingly, "You have connections with so many gods. With your teacher, the God of Alchemy, can't he save you? It should be very easy for him to promote a subordinate god."

Melina also agreed, "Father, you can't give up. Use your invincible wisdom to solve the problem!"

Amber Xiu saw that these two were still unwilling to give up. It seemed that it was really difficult for outsiders to understand the state of waiting to die of the prophecy wizard.

Only by letting them truly see that fate cannot be defied can they understand what state Amber is in now.

"Okay, then I'll ask my teacher."

Amber immediately contacted the God of Alchemy, and the image of the God of Alchemy quickly appeared on the magic mirror.

The God of Alchemy was swinging his crystal hammer as usual. Every time he saw him doing experiments, the god put down the hammer and said to Amber Xiu: "My dear student, which god did you offend today? Do you want your teacher to help you clean up the mess?"

This time, An Boxiu did not joke with the teacher. He just said calmly: "Teacher, can you promote me to be your subordinate god now?"

The God of Alchemy was stunned for a moment and said in surprise: "Why are you saying this suddenly?"

Amber Xiu did not explain, but continued to ask: "Is it okay?"

The God of Alchemy nodded and said, "Of course you can, but your contract with Hell has not yet been completed. After becoming a god, you can no longer trade in large numbers of souls. Gods are not allowed to send large numbers of souls to Hell privately."

When Apoptosis Rose heard this, she didn't care about the politeness and asked excitedly: "Why is there such a restriction?"

The God of Alchemy looked at the Withered Rose in confusion. He also felt that the atmosphere was a little strange, but he explained: "According to the rules of Hell, the souls of the wicked are randomly assigned to hell, unless they have signed a contract with a devil before death. This is a rule set by Asmodeus, the Lord of Hell, to ensure the basic balance of the Nine Hells.

There is no mistake in the poem, post, content, and read the book on 6, 9, and bar!

"No god can trade souls with any devil in hell. You can send a few people to hell occasionally, but it's impossible to trade soul coins worth tens of millions like yours. Asmodeus will never allow other gods to affect the balance of power in hell. Otherwise, those powerful gods can just send a large number of heroes to hell to cause trouble. Asmodeus will probably be exhausted to death."

The Nine Layers of Hell is a very special plane. In theory, all the villains in the universe must go to hell to be punished. This is a rule set by Io when he created the world. However, the devils in hell usually do nothing and have offended too many enemies.

Hell is a place to punish evildoers, but its administrators are more evil than each other.

As the lord of Hell, Asmodeus not only has to prevent his enemy subordinates from rebelling, but also has to be on guard against gods with an excessive sense of justice entering Hell to cause trouble.

Isn't Zariel the best example? The fight was so fierce that it forced the Lord of Hell to intervene personally. So Asmodeus cut off the transaction between the gods and Hell. Who knows if the souls you send to Hell are real sinners or heroic spirits sent to cause trouble? You stuffed them all into the territory of a certain Hell Lord. Do you want to starve this devil to death or make this devil rebel? This rule is very strict, and few gods dare to violate it.

Amber Xiu summarized: "So, what you mean is that I need to pay the soul coins I owe to the Lord of Hell first, because transactions between mortals and gods are not restricted by the laws of Hell. But if I become your subordinate god, I will no longer be able to trade, and I will violate the contract, and the devil will come after me."

The God of Alchemy nodded and said to Amber Xiu: "What problem did you encounter? Weren't you waiting for the Goddess of Wealth before?"

Amber Xiu shook his head and said, "Nothing, just asking, sorry to bother the teacher."

The God of Alchemy glanced at Amberxiu, but ultimately said nothing and slowly disappeared into the magic mirror.

When Withered Rose saw the God of Alchemy leaving, she quickly said, "Don't you still have a chance? As long as you complete this contract, even if you can't, you can hide in the Kingdom of the God of Alchemy..."

An Boxiu looked at the extremely excited Withered Rose and shook his head and said, "It's not that simple. Even if I enter the teacher's kingdom of God now, the result is that the devils will come to my door and take me to hell. No matter how I avoid them, the result will be the same. There will always be a moment of accident that will cause me to be caught.

"The same goes for the other path. Even if I start making soul coins in my private space now, the materials will suddenly run out and I will need to buy more. Then there will be accidents during the transportation of the materials. Or after the soul coins are made, they may be snatched away by a demon lord during a transaction... No matter what kind of accident it is, it doesn't really matter because the result is already determined."

Withered Rose seemed unwilling to believe it, and murmured to herself, "There must be another way. If it doesn't work, what's the use of the scroll sent by Selwyn? Why did he give it to you?"

"To buy time for me. I can use this scroll to make the whole world forget my existence. After a period of chaos, I can dig a hole and bury myself. Maybe when I wake up thousands of years later, everything that happened now will disappear, and everything that should have killed me will be worn away by time."

Withered Rose quickly grabbed Amber's hand and said, "Let's do this. In the Underdark, we can find many suitable places to live in seclusion. I have waited for many years, and I don't mind waiting for a few hundred more years for Ryan to die on his own."

Amber looked at Withered Rose in surprise. This didn't sound easy. Could she let go of her hatred for Ryan?

But unfortunately, Amber could only continue to shake his head.

"There is no point in doing that. As a prophecy mage, you can't praise the goddess of fate for your favor when it's good for you, and choose not to believe it when fate arranges bad luck for you. Even if I erase my name, I will die in a corner where no one knows about it."

Withered Rose couldn't understand why Amber was certain of his own death, but she didn't want to give up.

"If you can't defy fate, then I'll help you. I'll lock you up and make sure no one can kill you!"
