Chapter 545 Chief General of the Blood River Battlefield
All along, Amberxiu has been played around by the goddess of fate.
Amber Xiu also has very complicated feelings towards this goddess whom he has never met but who always makes her presence felt.
He had to thank the goddess for her blessing, which allowed him to survive in this dangerous world with the power of prophecy. If he had not become a prophecy mage, Amber would have gone to hell a few years after crossing over and become a consumable in the Blood River battlefield with his teacher.
But Amber Xiu also hates the despair and helplessness brought by fate, and he wants to get rid of it completely even if he is called a scumbag.
Becoming a god is the simplest and most direct way of resistance.
Just like the goddess of magic controls all magic, but she cannot affect Talos' thunder and rain in her own kingdom. The same is true for the goddess of fate. Even if this deity can weave the thread of fate that affects many planes, as long as Amberxiu hides in her own kingdom, she should be able to cut off this influence.
If not for this, the Goddess of Fate would have long been the strongest under Io, and there would be no chance for the Goddess of Magic and the King of Elves to compete for the second place.
Para-divine powers have powers similar to those of gods and can also break free from the control of fate.
For some unknown reason, Io couldn't see him, so Amberxiu couldn't just sit there and wait for death, so he simply started a new life in hell.
Melina's territory is Amber's first move, and Hell Bank is Amber's other move.
Earn money here, convert it into power there, and then go to the Blood River battlefield to gain merit. When the accumulated amount is sufficient, Amberxiu will directly borrow the laws of hell to become a quasi-divine lord of hell. At worst, he can learn from Tiamat and form an alliance with Zariel to sit in the third seat of the first layer of hell.
No matter how weak a god is, he is still a god and can enjoy the privileges of a god.
Of course, Amber could actually be a little more greedy.
Why couldn't Zariel be pulled down?
Zariel has made outstanding military achievements and cannot be brought down by simply gaining merit, but gods can also die. Who knows which will come first, the future or an accident?
However, no matter how ambitious the goal is, we have to take it step by step.
Amber is not in a hurry now. He will help Melina manage the territory she has acquired first.
Amber did not explain it in detail, but it was enough for Ego and Hecky Stone to understand his goal. Neither of them thought there was anything wrong.
Judging from Amber's previous battle record, just wanting to take advantage of loopholes to get some divine power is nothing. This is already very restrained.
When he was still a mortal, he had deceived the Spider Queen Lolth and Shar, and even captured the Kuo-Toa Fish Goddess and sent her to Talos.
When others brag, it's that their mortal bodies are on par with gods, but in Amberxiu's case, it's that his mortal body is kidnapping a god. The gap is obvious at a glance.
If Amberxiu wants to cause trouble in hell, he doesn't have to worry about how the devils will deal with him. Instead, he has to worry about whether the devils will be cheated by Amberxiu and lose all their money.
Ai Ge asked, "How can I help you?"
Ai Ge felt that Amber Xiu had planned everything. Was he here to take advantage of the meeting in his dream? In addition to getting Hecky Stone's help in solving the problem of doctrine, what did he pay for it? Ai Ge found it difficult to accept this feeling. He couldn't let Amber Xiu pay every time.
"There is indeed something I need to trouble you with, Ms. Aige." Amber looked at her right hand, which was wearing a pure black ring.
This is a sacred artifact given by the president of the Mourning Poetry Society to the overseas dragon tomb to help the dragon clan hatch bone dragons.
Later, it was taken away by Amber Xiu and given to Ai Ge to build his own kingdom of God in advance.
And now, Amber needs the power of this ring.
Ai Ge was about to take off the ring without thinking, but suddenly remembered that this was just a dream, so she said awkwardly: "I'll bring it to you later."
Amber Xiu asked curiously: "You don't need it anymore?"
Ai Ge nodded. The kingdom of God had been almost built. After the Kou Tao fishmen regained their sanity, they provided her with faith very quickly. The ring was no longer of much use.
"But it can't be transferred casually." An Boxiu said to Ai Ge seriously, "This is the president's artifact, and I am no longer a member of the Mourning Poetry Society. So, I would like to ask Ms. Ai Ge to ask the president if I can borrow this artifact. I don't want the president to suddenly come after me, so let's part ways amicably."
"Okay, I'll ask the president to lend you the ring."
Ai Ge did not ask the president for his opinion, but asked the president to lend her the ring. It can be seen that she has made up her mind to meet Amber Xiu's needs no matter what.
Amberxiu discussed the next actions with them in detail, mainly instructing Heki Stone to help Aige complete the compilation and organization of the doctrine as soon as possible, so as to let the scattered Kouto fishmen and exiled mermaids form a new sect as soon as possible.
At the same time, ask Herky Stone to send him a copy of all the works he has ever written.
Herky Stone didn't know what Amber was doing. He originally wanted to collect some royalties, but after thinking about it, he decided to give it all away for free. Since he had already decided to invest, he shouldn't haggle over it. Herky Stone believed that he would get an excess return this time.
After Ai Ge and He Ji Stone disappeared from the dream, Amber Xiu said to the silent Withered Rose: "You should also be careful. I always feel that there is something wrong with Yugashi. If anyone in the Mourning Poets Society is more dangerous, it is very likely that it is this ghoul."
"Don't worry, I have the same idea as you now. I just want to get rid of the shackles of the dead. If I succeed, I will leave the Mourning Poetry Society like you. Even if this organization really has some secrets, it has nothing to do with me."
Withered Rose doesn't want to fight for anything now, she just wants to try a new life.
Let Yugasi ask the president for whatever he wants. The Withered Rose is too lazy to even leave the Underdark.
Withered Rose suddenly asked again: "By the way, why did you ask Hecky Stone for his works? I don't like reading those so-called unofficial histories."
Amber smiled and said, "I know you don't like that type of story, but this kind of thing should be very popular in Hell. This kind of thing can come in handy, but there is no rush now. I have to help Melina solve the problem of the territory first."
After hearing this, Withered Rose felt a little reluctant, but she quickly said to Amber Xiu: "Then you should get busy."
However, Amber did not disappear. Instead, he took a few steps closer to the withered rose and said, "You misunderstood. Although I have something to do, it does not mean that I will leave the dream."
Withered Rose looked at Amber Xiu who was so close to her, and asked with a slightly red face: "What do you mean?"
Amber smiled and said, "I just want to tell you that I can be in a dream and in hell at the same time... So, do you want to continue listening to the story?"
…
There is no mistake in the poem, post, content, and read the book on 6, 9, and bar!
In the first level of hell, Melina was looking at the pile of parchment in front of her with an indifferent expression.
Every word recorded on it kept jumping, but this was not a characteristic of the devil's words, but an illusion that appeared before her eyes.
Is it so tiring to run a territory? You have to decide how many soul fragments those little cowards can eat. Who knows how much the devils need to eat to be full?
There is also the issue of the ratio of people collecting soul fragments to the standing army. Who knows how to allocate them? Aren't all devils soldiers?
An invitation letter from a nearby territory? Is this a trap or just a courtesy?
Melina felt like she was going crazy. Is being a lord so complicated? This is just a small territory with only tens of thousands of people. It doesn't seem that complicated to manage the Underdark with a population of tens of millions.
Melina forgot that most of the people in the Underdark were undead who did not need to eat or drink and only obeyed orders. As for the remaining few... the Queen of the Undead never managed them as humans, so they were dead if they died.
But it’s not the same in hell. Here, all the devils are unruly people.
If you don't set the rules in advance, these devils will dare to take away everything that belongs to Melina.
But after being busy for a long time, Melina found that her work did not decrease, but increased instead, and her work efficiency was really a bit low.
Luckily, Melina can always pull out her magic mirror whenever she needs help.
Amber Xiu's face appeared in the mirror. Looking at his daughter who looked aggrieved, he could only say helplessly: "Okay, leave these to me."
Melina cheered, piled all her work in front of the magic mirror, and then sat aside obediently. She was not lazy either, and quietly accompanied her father.
The various rules and regulations regarding the territory were actually not complicated. Amber Xiu casually set a few rules that were harsh enough to make the devils grit their teeth, ensuring that they lived half-hungry in this territory. Then, referring to the rules of the Blood River Fortress, he designed some merit exchange forms.
If you make contributions, you can exchange them for more, such as soul fragments or even soul coins.
Of course, these rules are very simple and have many problems.
But it doesn’t matter. The final right of interpretation lies with Amberxiu. He can change it anytime he wants. There is no need to worry about the devils’ objections. This is hell.
But what really concerned Amber was the invitation letter from the nearby lord.
This is a Hell Lord whose territory borders Melina, and according to the information provided by the succubus Monica... the other party is a Hell Lord of the divine level.
Not only that, this person also has a background.
This Lord of Hell is Bayer's subordinate, and there are rumors that he is actually one of Grand Duke Bayer's incarnations.
As for Bayer, he has two special titles - the former master of Avernus, the first layer of hell, and the chief general of the bloody battlefield.
However, Bayer has a little-known past.
He once betrayed Zariel and imprisoned the fallen angel in his bronze fortress. As a result, Bayer gained the authority of the first layer of hell and became the master of Avernus.
And now that Zariel is back in power, it is a wonder that this guy has not been held accountable.
But why did this guy come to provoke me? (End of this chapter)
