This lich needs more money

Chapter 24 Statue of Silvanus

In Nancheng District, a building that looks like a monument is emitting a strange smell. Residents of the Alchemy City would stay away from it when passing by. Smelling this smell for a long time can easily make you dizzy and nauseated.

This is one of the entrances and exits to Alchemy City's huge sewer system. Although everyone knows that sewers are where filth gathers, a smell like this has never appeared before.

After all, this is an alchemy city where even the entrance to the sewers is turned into an artistic statue. How could it tolerate such a stench? Two or three years ago, a stench like this would have been cleaned up in less than half a day due to complaints from residents.

But now, people can only pinch their noses and take detours.

When Amberxiu and Naomi arrived at this place, they happened to see the thief and ranger entering the sewer from a distance.

Naomi couldn't help but say: In order to harm others, they even put themselves in danger.

The two of them actually endured the stench and entered the sewer just to harm others. The innocent Druid girl was deeply shocked by this malicious intent.

Amberxiu didn't feel anything at all. This druid girl must have been well protected since she was a child. In addition, the druid's teachings tend to be kind. It is estimated that there are all kinds of simplicity and beauty in the tribe. As a result, the tribe is now in trouble and has no choice but to Don’t face this cruel world by yourself.

This feeling of being forcibly torn apart is probably very uncomfortable.

Amberxiu just said calmly: Welcome to the real world.

After traveling through hundreds of years, even though Amber Xiu was only known as a parallel import legend, he still saw countless dangers in the world, and trivial things like this were not even worthy of being remembered by him.

Naomi was silent for a while, not much frustrated, but more determined.

Ultraman Master, shall we go in now? Naomi asked.

Amberxiu said: Don't worry, you are a druid, you should be able to summon wild beasts, right? Can you summon a raven?

Naomi nodded. Summoning beast companions is a druid's special skill, and raven summoning is the foundation of the basics. Through magic rituals, the projection of a raven can be obtained from the remote wilderness. It is no different from a real raven. It is an excellent scout.

Amberxiu pointed to the sewer mouth at his feet and said: Call the raven, put it in this place, and take a detour under the sculpture to take a look.

After hearing this, Naomi immediately understood what Amber Xiu meant. He was afraid that the two people had prepared a trap at the entrance of the sewer.

Naomi couldn't help but think: This undead is really cautious. I really found the right person.

It's just that Druid teachings and the undead are simply incompatible, and Naomi is worried that she will not be able to escape punishment even if she rescues her tribe.

But now is not the time to think about this. Amber Xiu is the only life-saving straw she can grasp. Even if she is to be punished by the gods, she has to wait until her tribe is rescued.

Naomi followed Amber's instructions to summon a raven and got in through the sewer opening at her feet. The moment the raven entered the sewer, Naomi's expression changed. The summoned wilderness companion empathizes with its owner and can share most of its senses.

Therefore, Naomi felt as if she had entered the sewer herself. The disgusting stench was even more obvious and almost made her lose control of the raven.

Naomi endured the discomfort and controlled the raven to circle around. She did not find the two people who had entered before, nor did she see any traces of the trap. Naomi, who couldn't stand the stench, quickly called the raven back, and then reported her findings to Ambrose.

After hearing this, Amber Xiu said disdainfully: It seems that they are two half-hearted people. If I go to take advantage of others, I will have to leave at least five magic traps at the entrance.

Then shall we go in now? Naomi asked.

Don't worry, what if you didn't notice the trap they left behind because of their clever tactics? Amber Xiu said.

Then you are going to investigate again? Then go alone from the beginning, the undead have no sense of smell!

Naomi was quite unhappy. If Amber couldn't trust her, why would she let her investigate? Isn’t that a face that was smoked in vain?

It's always a good thing to be cautious. Don't worry, there's no need for trouble. We'll just take a detour.

Ambrose cast a spell, and the magical power fell on himself and Naomi. Naomi thought it was another invisibility spell, but she didn't expect that this time their bodies turned into two clouds.

This is a spell that vaporizes the body, which can directly turn the entity into gas, retain consciousness, and move in a floating manner. In this state, it is immune to physical attacks and some magic attacks, but it cannot perform other actions except moving.

Naomi couldn't help but sigh: As expected of a mage, there are so many tricks.

Mages are different from spellcasters of other professions. They rely on intelligence to cast spells. In theory, they can cast any spell that they can understand, so mages master much more magic than other spellcasters.

As for whether he is knowledgeable but not masterful, it depends on the person and cannot be generalized.

Amberxiu took Naomi, and the two of them got into the narrow sewer mouth in a gas state and entered the underground world of the Alchemy City.

Amber Xiu, who was originally planning to keep the gas form and rush on the road, decisively canceled the gasification effect after entering the sewer.

Amberxiu said in surprise: Why did this wretched place become like this?

Rot, decadence, evil...these negative auras seemed to have turned into reality, and even he, the lich, felt deeply uncomfortable.

Just after entering the sewer in the vaporized state, Amber Xiu felt that his body was beginning to be contaminated. If he stayed in the vaporized state for a long time, he didn't know how many disgusting things he would be infected with, so he decisively returned to his human form.

Naomi's resistance was even lower than Amber's, and her face turned green in just a few moments. Her vaporized state had a wide range of contact with the dirty air, making her quickly infected.

After returning to her human form, her entire face turned pale and she didn't even have the strength to stand firm.

Amber was about to remove these negative effects from Naomi, but saw a flash of light from Naomi's palm, and suddenly there was an oak statue.

Pure green light spreads from the statue like waves, spreading vitality and creating a safe space in this dirty sewer space.

Naomi's physical strength quickly recovered, and the pollution in her body was instantly eliminated.

Amber Xiu stood outside the green barrier, as if this layer of green light was more terrifying to him than the stench of the sewer.

Amberxiu stared at the statue for a moment and said in surprise: The statue of Silvanus? Your tribe has been blessed by the gods?!

Silvanus, the god of nature, is the deity worshiped by most druids. But faith is faith. Just because you believe in God does not mean that God will ignore you. And Amber Xiu could sense the powerful divine power on this small statue. It was an object blessed by the gods, and it was a treasure for any druid of any tribe.

Things start to get complicated.

Such a treasure will never be taken out of the tribe unless the tribe is exterminated.

Naomi came alone with the artifact to save people... Either she had been exterminated, or she had stolen it from the tribe.
