This lich needs more money

Chapter 279: The Tiefling Kingdom Drinking Poison to Quench Thirst

Amberxiu didn't care much about human morality. Peeping was meaningless to him, and he naturally had no objection to it, but he couldn't let his products have such a dirty reputation.

If other people talk about it in the future and say that this drone was originally used to peek into women's bathrooms, how can it be sold?

Many people mistakenly believe that only things about the dark side of human nature sell well. In fact, the market for aphrodisiacs will never be as good as the market for cold medicines, and the bards who can only sing obscene lyrics in taverns will never make as much money as those who can sing grand epics. of.

"I can't do things like peeking into the bathroom. It's a pity that we can't complete this deal."

Amber Xiu decisively chose to refuse, and he could not lose the big by being small.

But Amberxiu refused, but the orc ranger was not happy and refused to let go of the remote control.

"I agreed to a half-hour free trial, why are you going back on your word now? If you dare to lie to me, do you know what will happen?"

The orc's biceps swelled automatically, shaking and shaking, and the sleeves collapsed as if they were about to split. Only the orc could perform such a difficult action.

But this threat was of no use to Amber Xiu.

Just listen to Amber Xiu say loudly: "What? Because I don't help you peek into the bathroom upstairs, are you going to beat me?"

The sound was so loud that all the guests in the tavern heard it, and everyone turned their heads and looked towards Amber Xiu.

The orc ranger looked confused. He never expected that Brother Amber would howl like this.

It is okay to talk about peeping in private, but if it is made public, it will immediately become the target of public criticism.

Sure enough, the bartender began to put empty wine bottles on the bar. The guests stared at this table with bright eyes. They had not found the opportunity to make a scene for a long time.

The orc ranger was about to tell the difference, but Amberxiu didn't give him this chance at all. He stood up and said angrily: "I heard you said that you were being persecuted by the adventure group, and you kindly recommended alchemy equipment to him, but in the end you forced me to spy on women. Take a shower? If you don’t agree, you’re still a human being?”

"No, it's not..."

"It's nothing, you robbed me and didn't give it back! Isn't the evidence in your hand?!"

"I, this... I will give it back to you."

The orc ranger quickly threw the remote control to Amber Xiu.

After Amberxiu took it, he sneered and said: "Now you know you are afraid? What are you waiting for? Opportunities to legally beat people are rare, and he is an orc who resists beating!"

The guests in the tavern stood up one by one and surrounded Amberxiu's table, with eager expressions on their faces.

Amber Xiu is right. Adventurers like them risk their lives every day, and they have long been exhausted. Those who have no money have to spend half a day just to drink, and basically have no outlet.

Now, what a rare opportunity it is to beat someone up legitimately.

Seeing that his stupid companion was about to be beaten, the tiefling thief on the side said: "Wait a minute, this alchemist is talking nonsense when he opens his mouth. He is lying to you. He is the one who wants to spy on others taking a bath!"

Amber Xiu chuckled and took out a memory crystal.

The tiefling thief's eyes widened. This guy actually recorded it?

Amberxiu looked at him with disdain, and then said: "I am a very fair person in business. In order to avoid any disputes, I usually take pictures of the negotiation process. I didn't expect that I would meet you two like this." Dirty guests."

Speaking of which, the first wine bottle flew over and hit the orc on the head.

As a ranger, the orc reacted very quickly and reached out to catch the bottle, but it was meaningless because dozens of bottles followed closely behind.

Amberxiu had already quickly stepped aside. Listening to the crackling sound, he sighed with emotion: "The folk customs in Ganlu City are still so simple."

When the tiefling and the orc were lying on the ground with bruises and bruises, the bartender walked over to them and threw down a long bill. All the wine bottles and smashed tables and chairs must be blamed on these two people. This is the simple morality of the adventurers.

Amberxiu had already returned to the bar, drinking the ale he hadn't finished for a long time.

After the bartender came back, he wiped the glass and said, "Guest, every time you come, you bring a lot of excitement to the pub."

Amberxiu glanced at the bartender strangely. He was a tall male tiefling. Amberxiu had never seen this person before. Wasn't the person who received him last time an orc bartender?

"Do you recognize me?" Amberxiu asked.

The tiefling bartender explained: "We will keep relevant records here for those special guests. Although you change your appearance every time, we have our own way of identifying them. Last time, you showed up with the Elf Queen "

"Amazing."

Amber Xiu's praise came from the bottom of his heart.

Although Catherine's last transformation was seamless, it was not something that ordinary people would recognize.

The tiefling bartender said: "Next time, don't play like this again. We can't fully recover our losses every time."

Although taverns in various places have a transcendent status among adventurers, the pursuit of compensation depends on the owner's own ability. Sometimes those adventurers don't have a few gold coins in their bodies, and even if they are sold as slaves, they may not be able to make up for the losses.

And when encountering some fast runners, even if you want to chase them, you can't find them.

The two unlucky guys in front of them had adventure group backgrounds, so it was relatively easy to claim compensation.

Now that his identity was discovered, Amberxiu didn't hide it and asked, "How should I call you?"

The tiefling replied: "Akilov."

"Oh, your accent sounds like you're from the Kingdom of Unholy Carols?" Amberxiu asked.

"Guest, you are so knowledgeable. I have a country accent from the Kingdom."

"I also used to be an adventurer there."

Amberxiu recalled the past. In his hundreds of years of adventurer life, the country where he stayed the longest was probably the Tiefling Kingdom of Unholy Ode.

There he killed a divine choice of the Rose Spider Queen, deceived an Elf King, and met many people, including friends and enemies. It was also in this place that he picked up a stone tablet and recorded it from it. 's content harnesses the power of the prophetic mage.

Life began to change from that time.

Thinking back to those days, Amber Xiu felt a lot of emotion.

Akirov smiled and poured a glass of wine for Amberxiu, poured another glass for himself, and then said: "I'll buy you this glass as a tribute to the unclean ode of the past."

The two clinked their glasses and drank it all.

Amber couldn't taste the wine, but she could hear the implication of the bartender's words.

"Has the kingdom of tiefling changed now?" Amberxiu asked.

Akilov said: "Of course it has changed, otherwise how could I leave my hometown? Ever since the Lion began to invade everywhere, the Unholy Ode has had to rely on the power of hell to deal with it. How much effort did it take for us tieflings to get rid of Having broken the shackles of his bloodline, he is now forced to become a mixed-race bastard again.”

Amberxiu understood his emotion very well.

The tiefling race is inherently special. Their ancestors signed a contract with a certain big shot in hell, and their bloodline was contaminated by the blood of the devil.

Therefore, most tieflings have fiery red skin, two horns on their heads, scales on their bodies, and a tail on their backs. Some seriously atavistic tieflings may grow demonic wings, making them look like a cambion.

Generally speaking, tieflings are not inherently evil, but because of being discriminated against because of their appearance, most tieflings often choose to fall into the arms of chaos. There is nothing you can do, people are looking at you through colored glasses, so why not just go dark.

During the era of the dragon tyrant, tieflings were less discriminated against.

The reason is very simple. Everyone under the Dragon Clan is an ant. No matter you are a devil hybrid or something else, you are a slave. We are all the same.

Later, the dragon tyrant was killed by Arthur Lane. This holy king helped the tieflings to establish the Kingdom of Unholy Ode. The name was somewhat self-deprecating, but at that time, the tieflings were determined to take advantage of this opportunity to fight against hell. Clear boundaries.

It’s hard to live an upright life, to be on an equal footing with other races, and to finally have your own home after the world has been renovated. Who would throw feces into your home?

So for a long time tieflings dropped the term half-breed bastard.

However, Ryan changed, and the tiefling had to change too.

The royal family of Unclean Ode began to divide into two factions. One faction adhered to the past decision and drew a clear line with Hell, while the other faction took the initiative to contact Hell in order to resist Ryan's troops.

It was supposed to be a life-and-death fight, but a certain wise man suddenly stabilized the situation on both sides.

Amberxiu heard that more than a hundred years ago, the wise man persuaded the conservative royal family to give up their power. Now the Unclean Ode is completely controlled by the Hell Faction, but because of this wise man, the Hell Party uses its power very restrainedly. , resulting in this kingdom not becoming a colony of hell, nor attracting the intervention of gods.

This is not a simple matter. For many gods, once hell invades the mortal world, they will not hesitate to take action. This does not violate the rules set by Io at all.

Therefore, to be able to borrow the power of hell without being killed by the gods, this sage's method is also very clever.

Because of the blessing of this hellish power, Unclean Ode prevented Ryan from taking advantage of them. If not for this, it is estimated that this kingdom would have lost a large area of ​​territory just like the dwarves and orcs.

Now, more than a dozen Hell Gates are installed on the border. The tieflings declared that as long as Ryan does not come to invade, they will not detonate these Hell Gates. If Ryan dares to come, all the responsibility will be on Ryan's side. They are also forced to do so.

Ryan can only claim every day that tieflings have fallen and become pawns of hell, so sooner or later they will have to be liquidated, but on the other side they can only vent their anger on dwarves and orcs.

Akilov looked young, and what he said had changed. It probably didn't mean that the Hell faction was in power. Using the power of Hell to deal with Ryan was like drinking poison to quench thirst. This happened many years ago.

Could it be that there is another problem in the Tiefling Kingdom?
