This lich needs more money
Chapter 184 No one has a clean foundation
Amber Xiu used the transformation technique very skillfully. Not only did his appearance look exactly the same, but his voice was exactly the same.
But playing the role of a stranger requires time to practice after all. Amberxiu became anxious and forgot the basic character of Mengg Gray River.
Because the Kingdom of Raging Tide is poor and remote, it does not have many talents. The high-level magic scrolls needed by Mengg Gray River to go to sea must be prepared by these court magicians.
After clearly fighting against the Silent Night Pirates and losing so miserably, it was indeed very illogical to suddenly say that they were using a trick to lure the leader of this pirate group to come alone.
Although these three court magicians are just workers, this war is likely to involve them. Listen to what's going on outside, is that something that ordinary legends can do? This fighting power has exceeded expectations, and Meng Huihe is still talking vaguely. Who can feel at ease?
If something unexpected happens, wouldn't it be dangerous for them to participate in the war?
The court mage said to Amberxiu very seriously: "I need an explanation. If not, please forgive me for not participating in this war."
Amber was trying to recall the identity of this person, and it took her a few seconds to remember.
"Master Sharok, you ask me why I don't disclose the details? I would like to ask you why you care so much about the details. Isn't the fact that my plan was successful, and now that time is urgent, you are stalling here. Why is that? ?”
Sharlock frowned. The Meng Huihe in front of him seemed to have changed. Why did these words turn the blame on him?
Sharok said excitedly: "What are you talking about? I am the court mage of the Kingdom of Rage, and everything I do is for the kingdom."
Amberxiu sneered and asked: "Last year, you requested a variety of alchemy materials from the kingdom, including little devil fungus, Namira rot fungus, Amanita muscaria, bubble grass, etc., which added up to nearly thirty tons. Even if Even an alchemy apprentice can use these materials to refine more than five thousand bottles of paralysis potions and corruption potions, but what is the output you handed over to the kingdom? Fourteen hundred bottles, of which two hundred are my personal I paid for it and ordered it from you.”
Paralyzing agents are generally used for hunting whales. Injecting this agent into a hollow special whaling harpoon can quickly paralyze the whales and then suffocate them to death. But the potion is very expensive, and if you miss it more than three times, you will lose money.
But if paralysis drugs are not used, the whale in the deep sea can capsize most fishing boats, or drag the fishing boats out of the channel, putting everyone on the boat in danger.
As for the corruption agent, as long as it is diluted to a certain proportion, it is particularly effective in cleaning the barnacles on the bottom of the ship. This kind of thing is extremely harmful to the hull, but if it is dug hard, it will also damage the bottom of the ship. If a mutated species is encountered, highly toxic sap will be sprayed out during cleaning, which can cause serious illness for several months at worst, or death on the spot in worst cases.
Therefore, this corruption potion is needed to kill these barnacles and let them fall off naturally. It is also a potion that the kingdom needs daily.
These two items alone represent a large amount of public expenditure.
Shalok's face suddenly turned red and he could only say loudly: "What...are you talking nonsense? Do you know alchemy or do I know alchemy?!"
Meng Huihe didn't understand alchemy, but Amber Xiu did. Amberxiu was most sensitive to things, of course, things related to money, so he was particularly interested in the memory fragment of Monge Gray River privately spending money to buy paralysis potion. At that time, he wanted to complain that the Rage Kingdom had been cheated.
I didn't expect this memory to come in handy.
King Angry Tide also asked Amberxiu in surprise: "Mengge, when did you learn alchemy?"
Amber Xiu chuckled and said, "I originally didn't understand alchemy, but the kingdom's various magic equipment and potions are too expensive and the output is too low, so I occasionally ask outsiders for relevant information. Although the elves have significantly increased the price of magic materials before, even if the transportation costs are added, I still can't understand the calculation.
"Master Sharok, if you want details, why don't we do the calculations today? How about going to your magic tower for a walk and showing me how you refine the potion?"
Seeing Amber Xiu's confident look, Sharok dared to let him visit his magic tower.
What alchemist doesn't cheat Party A? If you don't dig up some materials yourself, is that still an alchemist? It's just that I thought that few people in the Kingdom of Rage knew alchemy, so I was a bit too harsh.
I don’t know when Meng Huihe started to doubt himself. Didn’t he cooperate well before? As a result, his face suddenly changed. As expected, these people who play politics have dirty minds. The smiling faces before were definitely all fake.
Sharok did not dare to express his opinion anymore, while King Angry Tide showed a surprised expression and said to Amberxiu: "Mengge, you seem to be a different person, very good, I saw you right."
The Kingdom of Rage is so short of such talents. It's not that they can't afford alchemists, but they don't have such meticulous talents who can analyze the problems from these clues.
Amberxiu was shocked by the king's words, wondering if he was pretending too much.
Just as he was about to restrain himself, another court mage stood up again.
"Why did the topic turn to other things? Your Majesty, we are worried about the details of this so-called plan. If there is any accident, it will have a bad impact on the kingdom."
Amberxiu looked at the man and recalled another name: "Master Weinstein, it's still the same reason, it's still the same excuse. You say you're good for the kingdom, but are you really thinking about the kingdom in your heart? "
Winston said disdainfully: "Why, have you found any mistakes in me again? Could it be that the magic scroll I copied for you is defective, and which one cannot be used?"
Winston is a mage whose daily job is to provide magic scrolls to the kingdom.
The mage used his own magic power to copy the scrolls. This cannot be accused of embezzling public funds.
However, being a mage is Amber Xiu's job. It's not easy to find problems.
Amberxiu recalled the memories related to Winston, and then said: "Of course there is nothing wrong with the magic scroll copied by Master Winston, but you asked the kingdom for a lot of talented children, saying that you wanted to train them to become mages. Apprentices, and then over the years, these apprentices disappeared one by one. You said it was the death of a magic experiment, but the accident of this magic experiment is too high."
Winston had no guilt at all and said matter-of-factly: "Magic experiments are of course dangerous. I didn't give a corresponding report that time. Do you think I killed them? What does this mean to me?"
"Yes, a mage from the School of Protection. Why are his magic experiments so dangerous?"
Amberxiu looked at Winston carefully, because at this time he had not found the real reason, but his intuition told him that the death of these magic apprentices had a lot to do with Winston.
Winston felt terrified when Amberxiu saw him. He had the same idea as Sharlock now. The man in front of him seemed to have changed.
Amberxiu looked at it for a long time, and then saw something familiar from Winston.
Amberxiu said in a serious tone: "Master Winston, you are not a mage of the protection school at all. You are actually a necromancer. Am I right?"
As soon as he finished speaking, the other two court mages couldn't help but take two steps away from Winston.
Winston's face changed drastically and he said excitedly: "What are you talking about?! You are slandering and slandering!"
No wonder he was so excited. Although the Necromancy School is also one of the well-known schools of mages, its reputation is really not very good and it is even more despised than the Undead.
It's very simple. There is a racial conflict between the living and the undead, but if a living person stands in the shoes of the undead...do you think this person will be hated even more?
Necromancers are different from the undead. They are alive and cannot generate dark magic by themselves, so they need to constantly kill living creatures to refine this power. The undead can lie there for decades doing nothing, but if a necromancer does not kill for a period of time, his magic power will regress.
Of course, some necromancers choose to be corpse collectors who do not actively kill. They will spend money to buy fresh corpses as experimental materials. It's just that the proportion of such necromancers is very low. After all, killing people is easy, but buying corpses is expensive, troublesome, and unstable.
Even if the Kingdom of Rage is not Lane, concealing the identity of the Necromancer is still a very serious problem.
Seeing everyone looking at him with strange eyes, Winston said excitedly: "What evidence do you have?! If you can't show it, I will fight for my honor and challenge you to a duel!" "
Amberxiu said confidently: "What are you excited about? Does the Necromancer still need to prove it? People who have been exposed to dark magic for many years cannot hide many things. Your pupils have turned gray, and your body Do you think you can cover up the rotten smell with perfume? The gaps between your nails are already soaked with blood, and you can’t cover it up with nail polish... There are too many disguises, but they all mean nothing.”
Winston's face turned pale, these details were all revealed by Ambrose.
But he continued to quibble and said: "These are just your own fantasies. My eyes are originally gray, and other so-called disguises are just speculation without any evidence at all! I can open the Mage Tower for you to check, let me see What can you find out!"
He had covered up all traces of the Mage Tower very well, and he didn't want to believe that the other party could find any clues.
But Amberxiu didn't think about it at all, and just said to Winston: "Why is it necessary to go to such trouble? If you are still unconvinced, you can just cast a withering spell on me now.
"Blight is a four-ring necromancy spell. Mages from other schools can also cast it. However, when a necromancer casts it, the color of Blight is completely different and the power will be much stronger. If you have the ability, just use all the magic attributes. I have changed."
Amberxiu looked at Winston with disdain. The necromancer pretending to be innocent with a lich was like playing with a beaker in front of the God of Alchemy, without any self-awareness at all.
Winston's fists clenched. He never expected that Amber Xiu's words were to the point. Appearances can be disguised, but magic attributes cannot be faked, and blighting is the best way to see magic. Spells with different attributes. When did Meng Huihe become proficient in magic? Sure enough, it was all pretending before!
After finishing scolding Winston, Amberxiu looked at the last court mage and asked: "What about you, do you also want to ask about the details of the plan?"
The last one shook his head hurriedly. He was not clean and didn't want to be exposed by Amber Xiu.
Seeing that the three court mages did not dare to speak anymore, Amberxiu said to the king again: "Your Majesty, there is no time, we must act immediately."
The king's eyes were full of admiration. He was indeed the pillar of the country. It turned out that there was another prime minister in the Kingdom of Rage. He had really underestimated him before.
The king walked up to Amberxiu, patted him hard on the shoulder and said, "Okay, evacuate the nearby people immediately, and then let the Raging Tide Legion begin preparations. Meng, everyone will listen to your arrangements."
