This Lich Needs More Money Chapter 415

Chapter 415: Dealing with Smart People

Amboxiu and Ai Ge were greeted respectfully by the mermaids.

The coral reefs that the mermaids live in are not natural products, but are built after many years of cultivation and the unique magic of the mermaids.

As soon as Amber Xiu entered the door, he could sense that there were many different kinds of magic in the water. Those huge coral reefs measured in tons could move freely under the control of the mermaid.

The coral reef that was originally like a flower bud now bloomed into a flower in front of everyone. I don't know whether it was seaweed or fish that was glowing. In short, the scene was very beautiful.

Ai Ge sighed with emotion: "I have long heard that the mermaid is the spirit of the sea. He has high artistic attainments. This coral bush is indeed very beautiful."

Amberxiu nodded. Even if he had no aesthetic talent, he could still see that this place was thoughtful.

This is better. If you can afford to live in such a good place, then this mermaid tribe is a large tribe. As the priest in it, Nepres can find people who can communicate with the gods even if he cannot communicate with the gods. Compared with those small tribes, Much more convenient.

This is the difference in personal connections.

Nepres respectfully led Ai Ge and Amber Xiu to an open platform, which was also colorful and beautiful. The tables and chairs made of reefs and corals looked very artistic and beautiful.

Nepres asked the two of them to sit down, and ordered two conch-like cups to be brought to them.

Amberxiu was a little surprised. The conch seemed to contain a pool of crystal clear spring water.

This is interesting. There is sea water all around. Why doesn't the liquid in the sea mix with sea water?

Nepres introduced enthusiastically: "The area around the Blue Algae tribe is as barren as the Dead Sea. There is really nothing good to entertain the two distinguished guests. This is pearl dew, a magic drink brewed from pearls, which has some nourishment for the soul." Please taste it."

Amberxiu said in surprise: "Can it affect the soul?"

Ai Ge was also surprised. She has been in the sea for many years, but she has never heard of anything that is good for the soul. The most common thing that can affect the soul is the poison of the Ixi stingray, but that thing is harmful. Yes, even if it is brewed into wine specifically for the undead, it relies on the slightly poisonous effect to make the undead drunk, which is not a good thing in itself.

Amberxiu took a small sip. This thing looked like water, but it tasted more like some kind of melted jelly. It was probably insoluble in water. No wonder it could be packed in a conch.

Amberxiu couldn't taste the taste. He could only feel that it quickly integrated into his soul after entering his mouth, forming a thin protective film, which made Amberxiu feel like he was enjoying a soul massage.

"I have never heard of mermaids having such treasures. Mr. Nepreis, you really don't treat us as outsiders." Amberxiu said with emotion.

Nepres smiled and said: "When facing the enemy, you must bring out the sharpest harpoon; when receiving guests, of course you must bring out the most delicious fish. This is the rule of our mermaids. But the two of them are undead, I'm afraid we are the most The sea cucumber sashimi that I specialize in is not suitable for you, so I have to treat guests with this pearl dew. "

Amberxiu understood what Nepres meant. If the two of them were guests, then this pearl dew would be a gift for the guests. If the two of them had bad intentions, then he would take out the harpoon to stab them. .

Amberxiu especially likes to deal with smart people like this who are controlled and know how to speak, because it saves trouble and the other party's logic can be predicted.

The most annoying thing is dealing with fools and psychopaths, because smart people all have the same logic, but fools and psychopaths are chaotic in their own way, and you can never use the same standard to deal with them.

Nepres is a typical smart person who is well-educated and decent, and does things without leakage. And dealing with this kind of person is also simple, that is, let him understand who is the smartest person at the negotiating table.

Amberxiu finished drinking the pearl dew and said with emotion: "It turns out that the mermaid has developed this magic potion specifically for the Ixi stingray. It seems that you are really ready to compete for the new territory in this volcanic sea area."

Nepres' face became stiffer. What happened to the lich? He could guess so much just by drinking a cup of tea. The key was that he was right.

Mermaids have always upheld neutrality and only care about their own territory, and try not to participate in the battles of other races.

But this time, the mermaids decided to take the initiative.

The reason is simple, because their only mortal enemy, the Ixi manta ray, has launched a large-scale attack and seems to be turning this sea area into their breeding ground.

Once the Yixi Stingray really grabs a territory as large as a kingdom, it will be a disaster for the mermaid.

This is something that cannot be done without fighting.

But if you stay at home, you can use various magic circles to resist the toxins of the Isi Ray. If you take the initiative, the casualties will be huge. So after knowing the movements of the Isi Ray, the mermaid's high priest prayed to the goddess Idroro for help. .

The goddess gave them this formula, which allows them to use pearls to prepare pearl dew that can resist the toxins of Ixi stingrays.

Nepres couldn't think of anything suitable for a lich to drink for a while, so he took out the pearl dew. Who would have thought that the lich could think so well and guess so accurately? But this is not logical. Did someone tell him this information in advance?

Nepres couldn't help but look at Aige. In his heart, the Lord of the Silent Night Sea was the real guest. This lich was probably just a strategist in the Silent Night Pirates. Since the Lich said this, does the Silent Night Pirate Group have any ideas about this war?

Are they here to negotiate or to demonstrate?

Amberxiu could see all the subtle changes in Nepres's expression. Thanks to the mermaid's face, which is similar to that of a human, the ability to read expressions can come in handy.

Therefore, Amberxiu has already guessed what Nepres is thinking. As mentioned before, he likes to deal with smart people the most. They think a lot and follow what they give. Lenovo.

But now, Nepres thinks too much and easily falls into the trap.

Amberxiu took advantage of the victory and said, "What, did I guess wrong?"

Nepres smiled bitterly. There was no way he could deny it. They were about to start a war. There was no point in deceiving the Silent Night pirates except offending others.

"The guest's guess is correct, but this matter is still confidential. If you can, please don't spread the news." After Nippris said this, he couldn't help but ask: "Where did the guest hear it from? Is there any news? If you can tell me the source of the leak, I, the Blue Algae Tribe, will be very grateful."

"Thank you? Can you give me some pearl dew?" Amberxiu asked.

Nepres said grandly: "Of course there is no problem. I will send someone to send ten conch pearls right away."

Amberxiu thought that this was just a waste of money, but he still remained polite and said to Nepres, "It's just a joke. I either got the news from somewhere, or I just guessed that this gift I can't bear it."

Nepres frowned slightly and asked, "Guess? But how did you guess from Pearl Dew that the mermaid is about to go on an expedition? Is there any necessary relationship between the two?"

Amberxiu chuckled and said, "Mr. Niepris, do you want to hear the truth or a lie?"

“Can you listen to both of them?” Nepres asked.

"Haha, of course." An Boxiu said cheerfully: "This pearl dew has not even been seen by our leader Ai Ge, so it must have been something long ago. Otherwise, this kind of magic potion that is good for the undead, Ji Ye The pirate group couldn't have never heard of it, it must be a new product. And then there is the fact that this thing is too targeted. Ixi stingray poisons the soul, and pearl dew repairs the soul. It is like a specially developed antidote.

"I am an alchemist myself, and I know very well how expensive it is to develop this kind of specifically targeted potion. If it is only for the wounded who are occasionally poisoned, the magic of your mermaid priests will be more useful and more cost-effective. Specialized The development of magic potion must be in response to the situation where a large number of mermaids are poisoned and the priests are overwhelmed.

"The mermaids usually live in their own territory. It is difficult for the Ixi stingrays to break through your magical defenses, so large-scale poisonings are rare. There is no doubt that they are preparing for foreign wars. Think about the sudden appearance of the volcanic sea. The reason is obvious, we are competing for territory with Ixi Manta Fish. This is the lie you want to hear."

Nepres nodded repeatedly after hearing this. This logic is really impeccable... Wait, what did the lich say just now? Is it a lie?

Nepres asked quickly: "Wait a minute, what you just said was a lie? What is the truth?"

Amberxiu said calmly: "The truth is, I guessed it based on intuition, without any reason."

Nepres said helplessly: "This joke is not funny. Such rigorous reasoning is false, so how can a random guess based on intuition become true?"

Amber Xiu spread his hands and said: "Because I am a prophecy mage, I usually trust my intuition more than reasoning. The goddess of fate will play pranks on us prophecy mage from time to time to see if we believe in fate. If we don't believe it anymore , then severe punishment will follow. Shoot the arrow first, then draw the target. This is the daily life of our prophecy mages. "

"Prophecy Mage?" Nepres was stunned for a moment. This profession was rare and he seemed to have heard of it recently.

“Wait a minute, what's your name?”

Nepres has always believed that Amberxiu is Aige's puppet. There is a very strict hierarchy among the undead. For the upper-level undead, all subordinates are "tools" rather than independent personalities.

So Nepres always thought that he was communicating with Ai Ge. This lich was just a messenger, so he didn't even ask his name and focused on Ai Ge.

But now, something seems to be wrong.

A very terrifying name came to Nepres' mind, that big man who exiled a kingdom and created a volcanic sea.

Ambethio saw the panic that couldn't be concealed on Nepres's face, so he smiled and said, "Yes, that's the name you were thinking of."

After hearing this, Nepres coughed up a bunch of bubbles. When he was out of breath, his first words were: "Ultraman Master, my eyes were blurred by the gray under the sea. To apologize, I I am willing to offer you three hundred conch pearls to forgive me for my rudeness."
