Chapter 329 Threatening the Lord of Hell

Amber looked at the angry Zariel and smiled apologetically: "How can this be considered blasphemy? My respect for you has never diminished, but I just can't find a warrior who can match Melina for the time being. You have also seen Melina's strength. There is really no one in the Underdark who can fight a hearty battle with her."

Zariel snorted coldly and said to Amber, "You can go and catch a legendary paladin from Lion. I'm very interested."

"Isn't this a coincidence? That's what I want to summon you. I wonder if you are interested in Lion?"

Looking at Amber's smiling face, Zariel suddenly had a strange feeling. This lich, isn't he digging a pit for him to step on?

After the last meeting, Amber had given Zariel a very bad feeling. No wonder so many gods hated this lich. He was obviously saying nice things, but Zariel felt quite uneasy.

With such cunning that even the gods can sense it, why hasn't this lich been deified yet?

At least he can be a fraud god of weaker power, right?

Amberxiu didn't know what Zariel was thinking at this moment, and continued to sell her, saying: "I know that hell needs a lot of souls. In fact, I am particularly good at making souls. No matter what kind you want, I can weave it. If I catch a paladin, I can copy his soul dozens of times. If I give it to you, it should be a good gift, right?"

The soul of a paladin can be made into the best soul coins, which is the hard currency of hell. Can this lich really do it?

"Can you make souls?" Zariel asked.

Amberxiu didn't waste any words, and directly took out a bunch of materials and molded a death knight for Zariel on the spot.

Because of the limited materials, the body of the death knight created by Amberxiu was a little fragile, at most a high-level undead, but Amberxiu programmed the characteristic of bravery and fearlessness in his soul.

"Respected Grand Duke Avernus, please allow me to offend." Amber bowed to Zariel, and then said to the death knight: "The one in front of you is Zariel, the ruler of the first layer of hell. Now, draw your sword at her!"

The death knight looked at Zariel, hesitated for only a moment, drew his sword, and rushed towards Zariel.

Zariel was a little shocked. This undead actually dared to swing his sword at him? The pressure of the gods went straight into the soul, and even the undead would be affected. They could not act according to the master's order.

This soul has its own will!

Zariel stretched out a finger and bounced the long sword of the death knight along with his hands. Then Zariel grabbed the head of the death knight, and countless hell flames at his fingertips sank into his head. The soul of this death knight was dug out by Zariel, and then melted into a dark red coin with hell fire.

Zariel looked at this soul coin in silence for a long time.

It's a heartbeat.

The color of this soul coin is very good. Although it has defects, it is also very valuable.

Zariel never expected that Amber would have such a method. She wanted to take Amber to hell right now and make him her coin-minting slave.

But this is not good. According to Tiamat and Shar, as long as you are a little tempted by the proposal of this lich, you will be deceived soon.

Zariel quickly threw away this greed and said to Amber sternly: "Lich, put away your cunning words. You summoned me, it should be related to the Kingdom of Unholy Hymns, right? If you have something to say, please say it quickly. I don't have so much time to waste with you."

Amber said with regret: "Alas, what a good win-win plan. You help to catch some Ryan paladins, and I will mass-produce this kind of noble soul for you. Then you can buy whatever you want in hell, and then transform those powerful paladins into fallen ones and become your loyal warriors. How great it is. However, if you are not interested, forget it..."

"Wait..." Zariel couldn't help but imagine what Amber said. The scene really made him very excited.

He likes to collect brave warriors. This is Zariel's biggest weakness and also his biggest hobby. However, the losses of his warriors have been huge, so he has been in urgent need of replenishment. If only this lich could provide warriors' souls in batches regularly.

Zariel tried very hard to suppress this desire. After falling into the devil, Zariel no longer had the restraint of an angel and was easily affected by emotions.

After a while, Zariel finally suppressed this desire and said to Amber, "Let's talk about cooperation later. Lich, what do you want?"

Amber said, "Grand Duke Avernus, can you please let Uladimir go? I can exchange a large number of souls for him."

Zariel said unexpectedly, "I have inquired about it. Your relationship is not very good. You have not been in contact for hundreds of years. For this tiefling, you can pay so much? Lich, this is not like you. You can sell all the gods for money."

Amber did not explain, but repeated, "Then, how many souls are needed to exchange for Uladimir?"

Zariel shook his head and said, "Impossible, don't think about it, I want him to be my slave."

"No matter how many souls, it won't work?" Amber asked.

"Impossible."

...

Amber was silent for a long time, then said to Zariel: "Respected Grand Duke Avernus, no matter what you want him to do for you, isn't it safer to add me? You should know that I am also a legendary prophet. Uladimir has gone further than me on the road of destiny, but I can be sure that he is not as good as me in many ways. In many cases, I am more useful than him."

Zariel looked at Amber doubtfully: "Are you crazy or are you deceiving me? Are you willing to fall into hell?"

Amber said quickly: "No, no, no, of course not. I mean, I help you accomplish what you want, and then, the two of us prophet mages will be useless, right? How about turning complete surrender into an assistance? Of course, I will still provide you with enough souls."

Zariel was silent.

Amber knew that he guessed right.

Zariel and Tiamat just need Mr. Doom to help them do one thing, and Mr. Doom will be of little use after it is completed.

In this way, as long as the souls are used to make up the difference, the two lords of hell should agree.

As for the cost of this rescue, Amber will slowly settle with the entire Kingdom of Unholy Songs.

Hundreds of thousands of nobles went to hell, their wealth was confiscated, and then the lich was paid. This is reasonable, right?

What Amber did not expect was that Zariel still shook his head and said, "No, no, I don't believe you. Lich, no matter what you are planning, I will not be fooled by you."

Amber said firmly, "I can swear that there is absolutely no conspiracy trap this time. I just want to save Uladimir."

Zariel sneered, "Haha, swear? You are a lich who should go to hell. Who are you going to swear to, the god of gods, Io?"

Mortals are different from gods. Gods swear in the name of Io, and they are afraid of Io's punishment for breaking the oath. But mortals don't care, because Io never looks at mortals. Even if you write a pornographic novel in Io's name, you will only be sent to the stake by people from various churches, and Io will never care.

And besides Io, who else can Amber swear to?

This lich doesn't believe in any gods.

Amberxiu wanted to say that he swore in the name of the God of Alchemy, but Zariel would probably slap him so hard that he couldn't get up. His relationship with the God of Alchemy was probably known to all gods, and fooling Zariel like this was pure blasphemy.

Zariel continued to taunt, "I admit that you are a cunning person that even gods are afraid of, but because of your reputation, no one will believe you anymore. So, just wait for the time of judgment to come, it has nothing to do with you anyway."

Seeing that Zariel was about to leave, Amberxiu sighed helplessly and said to Zariel, "I really want to solve the problem without offending you, but... I can not only weave souls, I can also weave fate for others. Grand Duke Avernus, my fate weaving has no effect on you, but Uladimir is just a mortal. I can make his soul dissipate, and then your plan will fail..."

The hellfire on Zariel's body suddenly surged, reflecting the entire altar in red.

"Lich, are you threatening me?!"

Zariel's anger turned into real power, causing Amber's body to slowly sink, as if a mountain was pressing down on him.

Amber did not resist, and waited for this power to destroy his body.

However, Zariel did not do so. When Amber's body was about to fall apart, the noisy hellfire slowly retracted into her body.

Even the Grand Duke of Hell cannot attack mortals casually, and the gods dare not violate this ban of Io.

Amber secretly said it was a pity. He originally wanted to use Io's hand to severely injure Zariel, but this seemingly reckless and impulsive fallen angel turned out to be quite rational.

However, since he had already made a harsh statement, Amber did not pretend.

"Zariel, I have always wanted to solve the problem in a peaceful and win-win way, but it seems that mortals are still too weak in the eyes of your hell lords. My suggestion is not worth mentioning in your eyes, so I will use all my strength to stop you. Do you think that I will end it after killing Uladimir?

"No, you should be very clear about my power and the power I have. Half of the countries on the continent have close relations with me. The friends I know are high-ranking officials in each country. I will ask them to hand over all the death row prisoners to me so that I can destroy their souls. "

Zariel widened his eyes and said in disbelief: "Do you know what you are doing?"

Death row prisoners are generally people who are going to hell. The souls of evil people are the universal currency of hell. If Amberxiu destroys all their souls, the income of the entire hell will be affected.

Although it will not cause much turmoil, it will also damage the interests of all devils. How dare this lich?

Amberxiu said confidently: "Of course I know, I will also publicize this matter and put all the responsibility on you and Tiamat. It was you who rejected the win-win proposal and forced me to retaliate. I believe that the lords of other layers of hell will have a lot of opinions about you. "

"You will die yourself, you can't bear the wrath of the whole hell!" Zariel roared.

Amberxiu laughed and said: "Of course not, because I can create souls. If you don't trade with me, I can trade with other hell lords. I can even use soul coins to hire them to deal with you and Tiamat. Zariel, I ask you one last time, win-win, or war? Now it's your choice!"
