This lich needs more money

Chapter 44 Diplomacy

Amber Xiu didn't really want to get involved in other people's housework, but Brother Touhou was a guest, and he needed to be reminded a few words both emotionally and rationally. After the guests were happily drinking the free drinks, Amber Xiu squeezed through the crowd and came to the headless brother.

"Hey, brother Diga, come and have a drink too." The headless brother enthusiastically put his arm around Amber Xiu's shoulders and introduced the lion-like female orc next to him: "This is my brother."

The female orc showed a shy expression and said to Amber Xiu: "Master Ultraman Tiga, I have heard of your name. The last time I used three sentences here, I deceived the paladin of the Lion Empire for thousands of gold coins. This time The means are admirable. I am the owner of this bar, Ona Hellfire."

Hellfire, this surname Amberxiu seems to have heard before, it should be from a well-known tribe among the orcs.

Sure enough, it was another rich woman.

Amber Xiu politely greeted the bar owner, then took the headless brother to sit aside and asked in a low voice: "Brother, what have you done these days? You are a married man! "

The headless brother burped and said nonchalantly: "What's the matter? I didn't do anything. I just came to have a drink. Can't married men go out to drink? The God of the Dead is above, My brain is gone, don’t I even have the right to drink?”

"Just a drink? You drank that female orc until her eyes were drawn!"

Ambrose didn't believe in just drinking. Anyone who wasn't blind could see that this lady Ona Hellfire wanted to eat up the headless brother.

"Ona...she is a good woman, but I only regard her as my sister."

What a classic scumbag's speech. Before Amber Xiu traveled through time, people who said this kind of thing would easily be stabbed to death with a kitchen knife.

"Gareth, I have no problem with your love life, but you have to think about it. Once your wife finds out, it might lead to a war."

The Alchemy City needs to go all out to deal with Miss Bone Dragon's anger. If not careful, half of the city will be turned into ruins, and maybe Amber Xiu's territory will be reduced to ashes.

Hearing Amber Xiu mention his wife, the headless brother poured himself another glass of wine and said with emotion: "I am beginning to think that this marriage may be a mistake."

Ambrose did not give any response. This was not a topic he could discuss at all.

After transforming into a lich, Amberxiu's heart stopped beating, let alone the secretion of hormones that affect thinking. The past emotional experiences have been eroded by hundreds of years, leaving only a faint impression. Abandoning this joy, anger, sorrow, and joy in exchange for a lonely eternal life, this deal may not be a loss, but Amberxiu also slowly felt the side effects. Just like now, he can only stand from the perspective of a bystander and analyze purely with logic.

Amberxiu couldn't even understand what the situation was like between the headless brother and his bone dragon wife. Not only were they both undead, but they also had huge differences in species size. They could get married. I can only say that love is really amazing.

Perhaps there is some unknown story between the two.

But before the headless brother could complain to Amber about his married life, the door of the tavern was suddenly pushed open, and a man wearing a golden-red robe walked in, followed by two full-metal robots. It is the demon puppet of the Alchemy City.

Seeing how this man was dressed, everyone in the bar put down their glasses and looked at him nervously.

This golden-red robe is the administrator of the Alchemy City.

Thanks to the focus of the Alchemist Council on academics, the administrative structure of the Alchemy City is very simple. From top to bottom, there are only two levels: council members and administrative officers, all of which are held by alchemists.

Administrative officers are responsible for all practical work such as people's livelihood, administration, military, and law. Probably only the people within them can tell who is in charge of which department. Anyway, to outsiders, they all look the same, and they can't tell the difference at all.

But everyone in Alchemy City has a consensus about the administrators. Nothing good will happen if this group of people appears.

The alchemist prefers to hide in his laboratory and play with the bottles and jars. Every time he goes out to work, he has a straight face, as if everyone owes them millions of gold coins. Unless absolutely necessary, the administrator would rather remotely control the puppets to do their work than appear in front of people on their own initiative.

Now, this administrative officer walked into this bar with a dark face. It was obvious that there was a very troublesome matter that required the administrative officer to deal with it.

Ninety percent of the guests present were adventurers, and ninety percent of the adventurers had committed violations of discipline, so everyone was very nervous when the administrator appeared, fearing that he was causing trouble for them. After seeing the governor appear, two drow quietly approached the window and prepared to climb out.

The administrator held his head high and paid no attention to the gazes of these guests. He walked straight to the bar, took out two bottles of magic potion, and then said to the orc bartender: "I am here to investigate a disappearance case today. The bottle on the left is a powerful truth serum. Drinking it may cause brain damage and turn you into an idiot. The bottle on the right is a lie detector. After drinking it, if you lie, your internal organs will be corroded. You choose Drink one bottle."

The orc bartender looked at the two bottles of strangely colored potions and looked at his boss for help.

Ona Hellfire stood up, walked to the administrative officer, and said after discussion: "My lord, we have been operating legally. If you want to investigate anything, just ask directly. We will definitely cooperate. There is no need to use Such intense interrogation techniques.”

The administrator was only as tall as Ona's shoulders, but he still remained indifferent to the lion-like female orc.

"This is an official diplomatic incident raised by the Lane Empire. It is related to the diplomatic relations between the two countries. There is no room for tolerance. Choose a bottle and drink it, otherwise I will send you all to prison for not cooperating with the investigation of the administrative officials."

The administrator's words were so categorical that Ona's ferocious face wrinkled up.

The headless brother put down the wine glass in his hand and said to the bar owner: "Ona, do you need my help?"

Ona showed a gentle smile to the headless brother, and then said: "It's okay, Gareth, I can handle it."

The headless brother shrugged helplessly, while Amberxiu breathed a sigh of relief.

This administrative officer was very lucky, and he was almost beaten to a pulp.

Ona said to the orc bartender: "Tell the truth and don't hide it." This meant that he should choose the bottle of lie detector potion. As long as he didn't lie, there should be no problem.

The bartender was helpless, but he could only grit his teeth and drink the lie detector potion.

After he finished drinking the bottle of polygraph, the administrator asked, "Did a paladin named Alan Watson come here a few days ago?"

Hearing this question, Amber Xiu also put down the wine glass in his hand.

Diplomacy? Is that how you play?
