This Lich Needs More Money Chapter 374

Chapter 374 The Contract of the Holy King

"To terminate the contract, you need the forgiveness of all the kingdoms? What a strange request is this? Who will forgive you?"

　　　After hearing what Severis said, Amberxiu thought that the old man was deceiving him. It was reasonable to drive away the dragons. Perhaps it was not the right time to continue the war with the remaining dragons. If they were to be exterminated, other races would not be able to hold on.

But what's the point of leaving such a requirement to terminate the contract?

Just directly restrict all dragons from returning. Why leave the condition that "all kingdoms have forgiven the dragons"?

Severis said with emotion: "Yes, no race will forgive the dragon clan. So for more than a thousand years, we have been on this sea and dare not return. In other words, the bone dragon belongs to the undead and is no longer a dragon clan. , so it is not affected by this contract.”

Amberxiu said unexpectedly: "So, you created such a terrifying bomb in the Dragon Tomb just to make all the dragons transform into bone dragons and return?"

"How is this possible? If all the dragons die, then the dragon clan will no longer exist." Severis retorted: "If all become undead, the dragon clan will lose its future."

“You're being a little racist,” said Ambrose.

It is the undead here. Which one has no future? The future of Anshiu is the richest man in the world.

Severis did not argue with Amber Xiu about this, and continued: "The content of the contract is that simple. There were not many surviving dragons at that time. Counting me, there were only three adult dragons, and they were all seriously injured. . The remaining ones are juvenile dragons, and there are hundreds of them in total."

While talking about this, Gareth also asked curiously: "Then why doesn't Arthur Lane kill you all?"

Severis glared at Gareth, and Ambrose quickly said: "Why are you talking to your father-in-law? If he is really going to be killed by Arthur Lane, then your wife will probably be gone too."

Severis looked at Amberxiu again. This lich's words were even more outrageous than that stupid son-in-law. No wonder they are friends!

Gareth apologized quickly, he was also excited for a moment.

Arthur Lane was once his idol, but he never thought that one day he would kill most of the Lane empire.

Umbersheu thought about it over and over, and felt something was wrong, so he asked, "How exactly do the Githyanki plan to help you break this contract?"

Severis shook his head and said: "They didn't tell me everything. After all, the undead can no longer be regarded as dragons. I can only confirm that it will take them several years to complete this plan."

What can a Githyanki do to be forgiven by all the kingdoms in the continent? Attack all the kingdoms directly, and then the dragons jump out and pretend to be heroes to save the continent?

This is impossible. Not to mention how fake this play is, no normal person would believe it.

Even if you really believe it, does this forgive the Dragon Clan? They are not fools either. One code must be the same and there is no way the Dragon Clan will return to compete with them for living space.

　　Unable to figure it out, Amberxiu decided to use his ultimate move.

“It's better to ask the parties involved about what happened more than a thousand years ago. Maybe there are some details of this contract that we don't know and Severis has forgotten.” Amberxiu said.

Severis said strangely: "The person involved? Apart from me, no one in the Dragon Clan can remember the contract back then. They are all new generations, and most of them were just children at the time."

Amberson shook his head and said: "No, I'm not talking about the dragon, I'm talking about Arthur Lane himself."

Amberxiu opened a small barrier to isolate the flowing dark magic, and then took out the hourglass from the private space.

Everyone looked at the hourglass curiously, and Severis exclaimed loudly: "The Eternal Hourglass! How come you have this thing in your hand? This is the treasure of Atros, which was stolen by Arthur Lane. , The whereabouts of this hourglass have never been found, and if this artifact is in hand, Atros will not lose to Arthur Lane!"

What is going on with this lich? Can this long-lost treasure be recovered?

Amberxiu said calmly: "Sir Severus, calm down, otherwise you will be even more excited later."

Severis calmed down a little and couldn't help but ask: "Can you still resurrect the emperor of our dragon clan?"

“That's not possible, but I can make your dragon family's enemies appear in front of you. Arthur, come out and meet your old friend.”

Following Umbershoe's call, Arthur Lane's heroic spirit gradually emerged from the hourglass.

At the moment he saw Severis, Arthur Lane said a little doubtfully: "Excuse me, who are you?"

Severis's eyes almost popped out of his head. He never expected that there would be such an outrageous thing in the world. This face, this look, and this powerful power of holy light, Severis will never forget it for the rest of his life.

Severis roared and said: "Arthur Lane! It's really you! How did you become like this? Shouldn't you enter the kingdom of the Lord of the Dawn?! I'm going to... I'm going to kill you!"

“Wait, old man, I don't know you.” Arthur Lane said innocently.

“Don't know?!” Severis angrily showed his prototype, a huge bone dragon emitting rainbow light, but one of its wings was drooped down, as if it was about to be broken.

“Look at my wings, do you remember me?!” Severis opened his mouth and almost swallowed Arthur Lane.

Seeing that something was wrong, Amberxiu quickly said to Gareth: "Stop your father-in-law quickly, they are going to fight, and this Dragon Tomb is going to explode!"

Just kidding, Arthur Lane has been fed with soul fragments by Amber Xiu for a long time, and has now recovered most of his strength. The battle between him and Ai Ge was earth-shattering. Even if he couldn't win the fight here, the Dragon Tomb would definitely be severely damaged.

Gareth was about to stand in front of Severis and comforted him: "This is not the same Arthur Lane as before. My brother told me that this is just a heroic spirit who has inherited part of his memory. Calm down, if you really Arthur Lane can't fight here either!”

Perhaps Gareth's reminder had an effect. Severis slowly calmed down and returned to his human form.

And Arthur Lane also remembered it now and said in surprise: "It turns out to be you. I remember that the wounds on your wings were caused by me."

After saying this, Severis almost went berserk again. Thinking of that sword strike, he really wanted to eat Arthur Lane alive.

It took Amberxiu a long time to calm down the Lord of the Dragon Tomb and explain the origin of this heroic spirit.

When the atmosphere was not so tense, Amberxiu asked about the dragon contract.

I was originally afraid that this heroic spirit would have no subsequent memories, but unexpectedly Arthur Lane said: "Well, I know, I had already thought about what to do after defeating the Dragon Clan a long time ago. Listen to what you said, the content of this contract Pretty much what I thought.”

Amberxiu asked strangely: "Why do you want to leave a possibility for the dragons to return? If all the kingdoms forgive the dragons, they can return. This is unreasonable no matter how you look at it."

Arthur Lane said even more strangely: "Why is it unreasonable and if you do something wrong, if you sincerely atone for your sins, isn't it normal to be forgiven?"

Amberxiu didn't know how to judge. This Arthur Lane was so childish... No, so naive?

"That's the Dragon Clan, the Dragon Clan that has left countless blood debts." Amber Xiu said a little excitedly.

Arthur Lane shook his head and said: "The dragons are also an intelligent race and the creatures of this world. We overthrew the tyranny of the dragons because they harmed other races and made it impossible for everyone to live.

"Although I don't know what the outcome of the battle will be, I think most of the evil dragons are dead, so the remaining dragons will be expelled. Most of the survivors will be young dragons. Of course, the children will have a chance to be forgiven. Even if this generation fails, just wait a thousand or two thousand years. This hatred cannot be passed on forever.

"Do you hope that thousands of years later, there will be another war because of ancient hatred? Can you imagine two people drawing swords against each other because their ancestors were enemies thousands of years ago? In that case, the blood shed in the war will be meaningless. .

“In terms of human nature, it is not easy to forgive the Dragon Clan. If it can be achieved, the Dragon Clan must have made an incredible sacrifice so that they can return to their homeland. I think this contract is very reasonable.”

Arthur Lane was even a little complacent, feeling that the rules he set were really seamless and solved all the problems perfectly.

Everyone was silenced by Arthur Lane's words, and even Severis released his clenched fists. From beginning to end, Arthur Lane treats any intelligent race equally and treats any race fairly. The struggle is for survival, not for massacre and extermination, which still leaves a glimmer of hope for the Dragon Clan.

Very good, in line with the teachings of the Lord of the Morning to never give up hope.

His Majesty the Holy King's brain circuit is really a bit different from ordinary people, but Amber Xiu couldn't find any problems.

This contract is very beautiful, very idealistic, and very naive. If everyone can understand the original intention of this contract, the dragon clan will probably be influenced by it, but now it seems that Arthur Lane is still too naive.

But after hearing this, Amberxiu admired Arthur Lane even more.

He is worthy of the name of the Holy King. Humanity at that time was really lucky to have such a hero.

Wait, no, that's not the point now.

"Arthur, if you think about it again, there is no other way to terminate the contract except this way?" Ambrose asked.

He wanted to know the Githyanki's plan, but they ended up chatting for a long time and got no useful information at all.

Arthur Lane shook his head and said: "I am not the kind of person who is used to leaving hidden information, and I am not good at playing word games. Based on my memory, I should not have left anything else, at least I didn't at the time. But I really don't know if there will be other changes in the future.”

Amberson felt it was a pity and could only send Arthur Lane back to his private space.

Umbersheu thought that he would have to go to the Githyanki to inquire about this matter. He might be able to get clues by taking out a few Githyanki souls and looking at them.

After deciding on the next plan, Amberxiu said to Severis: "The last question, Mr. Severis, I ask you as a lich, why do you want to **** the power of death? What exactly is this dragon tomb? One thing, how to extract divine power?"

Severis said helplessly: "Say it, you may not believe it. We extract divine power just for one thing, which is to increase the success rate of transforming into a bone dragon. As for the method you mentioned, it will be counted among your Mourning Poets Society On the head. Your president sent a ring. Through this artifact, we can borrow the power of death."
