Chapter 535: Become the person you used
to be In the kingdom of the God of Alchemy, what was heard today was not the clanging of the parts of the God of Alchemy's hammer, but the clacking of cards falling on the table.
As Amber Xiu shouted: "Three threes!"
The other two players at the game threw their cards away helplessly.
Although the game had just begun, the outcome had already been decided; Amberxiu won this time.
The God of Alchemy, the Goddess of Wealth, and finally Amber Xiu who was hiding in the mirror, these three people were playing Landlord. Unfortunately, the three of them played in different ways. After any one of them played a card for the first time, the other two would throw their cards to show their defeat.
The Goddess of Wealth has unparalleled luck in gambling. As a prophecy wizard, Amber can predict the outcome. The God of Alchemy has the entire kingdom under his control and he knows exactly what cards others have.
This is how it ends.
The only variable was that the God of Alchemy was not familiar with the rules, so he made a mistake in the first card, and was then beaten by the Goddess of Fortune and Amber Xiu. Later, only Amber Xiu kept losing.
After all, the prophet can only predict the outcome, and his dice of fate cannot change the fate of the gods.
The magic mirror was now covered with notes, but Amberxiu was still excitedly controlling the wizard's hand to reshuffle the cards. He hadn't played this game for a long time and couldn't stop.
Instead, the two gods, the God of Alchemy and the Goddess of Wealth, felt bored.
This is not a game at all. It has become a pure test of luck.
The Goddess of Wealth couldn't bear to watch it anymore and couldn't help but say to Amber Xiu: "How about not allowing you to cheat?"
But Amber said, "That's meaningless."
The God of Alchemy said disdainfully: "Is it fun to keep losing?"
Amber Xiu directly retorted: "You keep winning and yet you complain, isn't that too much?!"
"Then you should lose something. What kind of stakes are stickers?!"
"I am reborn, not stupid. Why would I bet with you on something else when I know I will lose?!"
…
The Goddess of Wealth watched the master and disciple bickering and couldn't help but feel envious. After all, she had slept for too long and missed such an interesting mortal. It was too late to regret now. She had already missed the opportunity to make Amber Xiu her chosen one.
Therefore, the Goddess of Wealth appeared in front of Amberxiu and treated him as an equal.
The Goddess of Wealth looked at the clown mask on Amber's face and couldn't help but say, "The mask that Oghma gave you should have more power than what it has now. You haven't completely integrated this mask. Do you have any concerns?"
The God of Alchemy also turned his head and stared at Amber Xiu and said, "You'd better think it over before answering. The Lord of Knowledge knows everything."
Amber put the card aside and said casually, "I still have the ability to take off the mask now, but if I completely accept Oghma's gift, I will have no other choice. Anyway, I can survive now, so it won't be too late to wait."
The God of Alchemy said worriedly, "I'm just worried that you have misunderstood Oghma's meaning. Many young people always maliciously interpret the kindness of others as exploitation, just like blaming gravity for restricting your freedom when you are standing firmly on the ground."
Amber Xiu said nonchalantly: "My body has only regained its youth, not forgotten the experiences of hundreds of years. Oghma has nothing to do with me. My plan failed and I was finished, so He gave me a new life. Those three questions were not tests, but just to help me find my original self. If I still harbor hatred for this, then I really deserve to go to hell."
The absolutely neutral Oghma is just like the mermaid goddess Idrolo. They do not discriminate against creatures of any race and are even willing to help all talented mortals become gods. As long as it does not affect the balance of the world, everything is fine.
Oghma did not impose any restrictions on Amber, but only gave him an opportunity for promotion.
Just like the previous three questions, the clown mask will wait until Amber gives an answer.
Take off the mask, or merge completely.
This Lord of Knowledge is not in a hurry and does not rush.
The God of Alchemy said with envy: "Then why are you still hesitating? Wouldn't it be good to become a subordinate god of Oghma? Your teacher, I have been thinking about it for a long time, but the Lord of Knowledge has not accepted me."
It seems that the God of Alchemy has a good relationship with Oghma, but he is still a long way from truly joining Oghma's pantheon and becoming an ally.
Amberxiu is different. As long as he completely accepts the power of the clown mask, it is equivalent to accepting the divine power bestowed by Oghma. He can be promoted to a god on the spot, and maybe even surpass the God of Alchemy in an instant.
But Amber only accepted the power of rebirth given to him by the clown mask, but still remained a mortal.
So the mask is only on his face and can be taken off at any time.
"What other reason can I have? I'm just greedy. I don't want to be a subordinate of any god." Amber Xiu said self-deprecatingly.
If Umbert was still a lich, he would have obeyed Oghma if he had just flirted with her. Not to mention Oghma, he would have chosen to sell himself even if the goddess of wealth had just beckoned her. If the Lord of the Morning Lathander had given him the Holy Light, Umbert would have been with her.
The reason why he looked down on those evil goddesses was purely because they were too deceiving, not because Amber had any incomparably firm will.
As for the invitation from the God of Alchemy, at first Amber was angry that this guy had deceived him for hundreds of years; later he looked down on the weakened God of Alchemy after being severely injured; later when the God of Alchemy recovered, Amber was about to go towards his predetermined destiny and had no chance to regret.
The young man who was full of vigor and courage and dared to make the great ambition of "I will rule under Io" has long been worn down by time and turned into a lich with a dull mood. That's enough. It's not that easy to be a protagonist. Which protagonist has been around for hundreds of years, and his friends and lovers have died, and most of his followers have died? But this rebirth has brought back Amber's long-lost youthful ambition.
The memories are still there, the pain is still there, but the accumulated experience has not disappeared either.
There is no mistake in the poem, post, content, and read the book on 6, 9, and bar!
Although he didn't know how Oghma did it, Amberxiu now had the body of a teenager but the experience of an old man, so he couldn't help but play cards with his teacher and feel the vibrant life.
Now that I have received this gift, do I have to go down the old path of the lich again?
Being a subordinate god... What a joke! I thought about being a subordinate god before my rebirth, and I still want to be a subordinate god after my rebirth. Isn't it a waste of my rebirth?
So, let’s try to regain our original ideal.
To become a god, a powerful god that cannot be controlled by anyone.
Oh, except Io, the God of Creation has to give him some face.
When Amberxiu first traveled through time, he had no idea how to become an independent god. He could only bump around like a blind fly, and ran into walls everywhere.
But now, Amber has mastered all the knowledge of the Dark Web, the modified Karsus ascension technique, and has assisted Leila in regaining her power and helped Aige become a god.
A large number of gods have a good relationship with Ambersu, and even more have a cooperative relationship with him. He can even wait for Aige to become a god and then borrow the special artifact ring from her, so that he can create his own kingdom of God in advance.
So many foundations have been laid, it would be unfair if he didn't become a god, right?
Therefore, it is better to part ways amicably with Oghma. If the great Lord of Knowledge grants Ambershu rebirth, then Ambershu will give Him the Renaissance that He wants.
After repaying this gift, Amber will take off the mask on his face and realize his dream.
"It turns out that your greed has never changed." The God of Alchemy felt emotional, as if he had returned to the time when he first met this young man many years ago.
At that time, Amber asked himself a question: when could he become a legendary alchemist, one year or two years?
The God of Alchemy was still blind at the time, otherwise he would have really wanted to slap this ignorant kid in the face.
"So what are you going to do?" asked the God of Alchemy.
Amber Xiu smiled mysteriously and said, "Don't worry, the groundwork is not enough now. However, I will make good use of the current situation. Teacher, your magic mirror should be upgraded. Next, I will turn this luxury into an everyday item that everyone can use!"
