This Lich Needs More Money

Chapter 231 Harvey’s Return

Time flies, the sun and the moon fly by, and it has been five days since Amberxiu and Catherine parted ways.

A large new area has been dug out in Amberxiu's underground city. Fortunately, there is a lot of gold in this area, and most of them are utensils for daily use.

“This underground civilization is really extravagant. They eat with gold rice bowls.”

 Amber Xiu held the golden bowl that was bigger than his head, thinking that this was indeed a civilization created by giants, and the size of every utensil was astonishing.

But giants are good. It is because of giants that we have such a big rice bowl. It would be better if it were bigger, and the gold harvested would be more.

 Amber Xiu directed the alien skeleton to continue digging. It felt great to keep digging out gold.

However, someone soon interrupted his enjoyment.

 In the dark dungeon, three shadows are approaching.

 Amboxiu sensed the other party's presence and stepped forward to meet him.

Amberxiu knew that Harvey could survive, but he really didn’t know how the three of them got together in the past few days.

The bruises on Harvey's eyes had not completely disappeared, but after seeing Amber Xiu, he showed a smile: "Teacher, I'm back."

 The two brothers, singing in harmony, were ready to leave the laboratory.

At this time, Harvey was in an extremely embarrassed state. The mage robes on his body were all covered in mud and sand, and there were several wounds on his body. Although they had been bandaged, he was indeed very weak.

Amberxiu sneered and said: "Lie in front of me, and you will have to practice for another five hundred years while standing still."

Amberxiu gave Harvey a healing spell and said, "Follow me."

Amberxiu said doubtfully: "How did you three get together?"

Hasting’s body trembled after hearing this.

 “Tell me, what’s going on?” Amberxiu asked.

  Harvey saw the well-behaved looks of these two people and thought he had made a mistake. These two guys had not treated him like this before. Sure enough, the teacher is still very good. It is easy for the teacher to solve the problems that the students cannot cope with.

 Amber Xiu turned the skull face to Harvey, the fire of the soul was burning, which looked a bit scary.

The two brothers dared not talk nonsense, so they quickly stood in the corner, motionless, as if they thought it was just a decoration.

Before Harvey could speak, Hasting said first: "Master, it's like this. Hares and I were thinking about saving money to cross the death line and go find trouble with the paladin, but we met your student, Harvey But he was generous and knew that we were in trouble financially, so he agreed to help us complete a commission with a high reward. As a result, the commission was completed, but he was slightly injured. "

You are really your master's student, you are too harsh on yourself.

Harris, who was in a mercury state, said quickly: "Yes, yes, we see that he is injured. Of course we can't just focus on our own tasks. He is your master's student, so we will bring him back first. Since he has been sent to your master, It’s time for us to continue our mission. Brother, let’s go.”

 Harvey said awkwardly: "Teacher, can you let me take a break first?"

 Leading the three of them back to his laboratory, Amberxiu handed Harvey several bottles of potions, some for treatment and some for recovery. After he drank them all, Harvey's face finally returned to rosy.

The one walking in the front holding a torch was the embarrassed Harvey, followed by the two demon puppets Hasting and the mercury-like Hareth.

But Harvey was used to it, so he carefully told Amberxiu what had happened in the past few days.

 Harvey was deceived by the two brothers and was beaten. Fortunately, at the critical moment, he told Umbershoe's other name and his identity as a lich, so the two brothers let him go.

Although they were still doubtful, as Harvey revealed more information about Amberxiu, the two brothers had no choice but to believe his identity. Hareth and Hasting are high-level undead created by Amberxiu. They can be said to be Amberxiu's slaves, while Harvey is Amberxiu's student. The identity difference between the two is obvious.

 Harvey had already concluded that everything was an arrangement of fate, and he was about to die, so he didn't care about the two brothers, so he let the two take him to "complete" the mission of conquering the sand lizard.

The two brothers didn't understand why he was interested in such a dangerous task, but they didn't dare to disobey Harvey's orders. The three of them formed a team and headed to the cave where the sand lizards were. Then, as expected, they encountered a surprise attack from the sand lizards.

The terrifying sand lizard swallowed Harvey into its stomach and chewed it hard several times.

 Harvey thought that his destined death was about to come, but after he closed his eyes and waited for death for a long time, he heard a clicking sound.

 When he opened his eyes, he saw that the sand lizard had been torn apart by Hasting's fists. It was not a sand lizard at all, it was just a pile of bones and stubble.

Although Harvey had many wounds on his body, the damage caused by this low-level undead was very average and far from fatal.

 Harvey couldn’t figure out why the death in the prophecy was unexpected.

"At that time, I once doubted whether fate could be changed." Harvey said to Ambrose.

 “What now?” Ambrose asked.

Harvey smiled bitterly and said: "I didn't understand it at first, but then I figured it out. Teacher, you saved me, right? Although I don't know what method you used, but I guess you went back to the past and saved this The prophecy was forged and perfectly reproduced everything that happened to me. Only in this way would I not die in the prophecy, because it was false in the first place.”

At first, Harvey really couldn't figure it out, but when he carefully observed the skeleton lizard and saw the weird appearance of various bones combined, Harvey knew that it was Amberxiu's handiwork.

There must be more than one lich on this continent, but Amber Xiu should be the only one who can create this kind of alien skeleton.

 Thinking of this, Harvey understood everything.

Amberxiu had to admit that Harvey's talent in the school of prophecy was really high. He had already figured it out in a few days? This method to fix the bug was something Amber Xiu thought about after decades of thinking.

"Boy... you're too smart. Alas, when you figure out this logic, you won't be able to be saved a second time." Amber Xiu had no intention of telling Harvey from the beginning. As long as Harvey didn't know, Amber would Bai Xiu can save him a second time, a third time.

Who would have thought that this guy figured it out himself.

Harvey seemed to have expected it, but comforted Amberxiu and said: "It doesn't matter. If fate really makes me meet my own death again, I believe you won't be able to save me a second time. After all, fate is not that easy to negotiate. ah."

This is indeed true. The goddess of fate probably won't let Amber Shoka have bugs twice, but if it does happen, as long as it's not 100%, there is always hope.

 Now, hope is gone.

Harvey continued: "Teacher, don't care so much. Maybe one day, my student will also encounter this situation. If I don't think about it, wouldn't I have to watch him die? And now, I have A way to save him. Thank you, teacher, you not only saved my life, you also gave me the power to save others."

This is exactly the problem with the prophecy school. Only prophecy mages who are not smart enough can be saved, and the way to save them is to sacrifice a smarter prophecy mage.

Amberxiu said disdainfully: "With your level, you still want to accept students?"

Harvey said nonchalantly: "So I'm coming back now? Teacher, I want to continue learning from you."

Amberxiu chuckled and said, "Just wait for your words. You can only work for me for free until you pay off the 180 million gold coins you owe me."

 Harvey was smiling just now, and when he heard this he couldn't help but ask: "One hundred and eighty million? How did this number come about?"

Amberxiu said coldly: "You think you don't need money to go back to the past?! I've given you zero money, don't think it's still fine, you have to continue working for me even after you die!"
