This Lich Needs More Money Chapter 79

 Chapter 79 Naomi's confusion

There is a feeling of storm coming everywhere in Alchemy City. Naomi Watts doesn't understand why her people want to stay in this place.

　　It was her fault before. She believed the so-called prophecy and took risks alone in the sewers of the Alchemy City, causing her tribe members to almost die in the sewers.

Naomi didn't understand why that prophecy had such great appeal, causing her to rush in regardless of the danger.

Although she was wrong, she rescued them risklessly.

　　Even if there is a punishment, Naomi admits it, but why do they all seem to suddenly change their appearance?

　　The former Druid community made Naomi feel very warm. Although she had no father or mother, the Druid who adopted her had always cared for her.

 But now...Naomi looked around. They were the only druids in this huge hotel hall, and the tribesmen around Naomi seemed to be staring at him intentionally or unintentionally.

As soon as Naomi stood up from the chair, everyone's eyes fell on her, and some people asked her loudly what she was going to do. Naomi could only casually say that she would get a glass of water, but she was already a little panicked.

This feeling of close surveillance made her feel like a thorn in her back, and she wanted to escape from this place immediately.

Naomi felt that there must be something wrong with these tribesmen. It was most likely that they had been affected by the hag's illusion before, and it has not been completely eliminated yet.

 But, what can I do?

 She didn't know anyone in this alchemy city, and she didn't know who to ask for help.

For some reason, Naomi's image of Amber Xiu came to mind. Although that lich is scary, he seems to be quite reliable. Before, he could obviously kill all the druids together and take away the idol in her hand, but in the end he kept his promise and sent all the druids out of the sewers without taking away the precious idol.

Naomi couldn't help but think, if he was given another commission now, maybe he could figure out the reason for the strange behavior of the tribesmen?

 When she thought of this, Naomi felt a little moved.

 She is not a law-abiding character, otherwise she would not venture into the sewers alone.

Now that he had the idea of ​​​​running away, he began to look around for opportunities to escape.

“There is a window over there. If I transform into a cat, I can slip out through the gap. There is an alley outside. After I run out, I can turn a corner and hide!”

The success rate of this plan seemed to be quite high, so Naomi took advantage of the opportunity to pour water and slowly approached.

 But just as he was about to reach the window, a loud shout suddenly came from behind: "Naomi, what are you doing?!"

Naomi was startled, and the cup in her hand fell to the ground.

The oak cup fell to the floor, making a dull sound, like a heavy hammer hitting Naomi's head.

Naomi turned around and looked at the serious face of Van Jones. This respected Druid elder was usually quite gentle. Why did he suddenly become so fierce? That look looked like he wanted to kill himself.

Naomi said tremblingly: "Uncle Jones, what's wrong with you? I didn't do anything!"

Van Jones walked up to Naomi, grabbed her wrist, and said in a cold tone: "I have sensed the changes in the magic power in your body, and you want to transform and escape. Do you think I don't know?"

 Naomi felt a sharp pain in her wrist. They were actually monitoring her, and they didn't even miss the slightest detail.

Naomi struggled to break free from Van Jones's hand and said excitedly: "I just want to ask what are you doing? Why are you monitoring me like a prisoner? If you think I was wrong last time, you can just say, what's the matter? I am willing to accept punishment, what are you doing?”

Naomi's words made many druids have strange expressions. Facing the girl's pure eyes, some even turned their heads and did not dare to look directly.

But Van Jones had no sense of shame at all, and he had no intention of explaining. He just warned Naomi: "Don't even think about running away. Just wait here for me, and then you will know everything naturally."

Although Naomi was very dissatisfied, Van Jones was considered an elder who had watched her grow up. Seeing that he spoke so seriously, he had no choice but to put away his grievances, sit back in his seat angrily, and murmured in a low voice. Said: "I don't want to run away. When I get back, I will complain to the great elder! If you apologize to me insincerely, I will never forgive you!"

After hearing the little girl's words, someone finally couldn't help it, walked up to Van Jones, and whispered to him: "Is it really okay for us to do this? We have watched Naomi grow up, and so has she. Druid."

Fan Jones said firmly: "She is not. She was just a transaction from the beginning. Don't you all know it very well? Have you forgotten it after all these years?"

The druid's face was dark, but he still retorted: "But Naomi is innocent, she knows nothing!"

Van Jones angrily punched his companion, knocking him to the ground, and then said loudly: "Balance is an illusion. Wherever mortals trample, nature suffers. Unity is a lie, mortals only want to tame wild beasts. Burn the wilderness. We are for the thunder, we are for the storm, we will destroy the ignorant mortals and make a pure world for new life! "Do you want to break this oath?"

 The Druid who was knocked to the ground finally lowered his head when he heard this harsh oath and did not dare to speak any more.

 Only Naomi looked at the scene in front of her without knowing why.

"Uncle Jones, are you crazy?! What are you doing?" The little girl walked to the downed Druid, helped him up, and asked with concern: "Are you okay? I'll help you treat him."

However, the druid was not only ungrateful, but also pushed her to the ground.

 The druid said to Naomi viciously: "You don't need to care! Stay away from me!"

The little girl looked at her people with shock on her face. The druids beside her just looked on with cold eyes. No one even said a word to comfort her.

Naomi's eyes turned red all of a sudden. She really didn't understand what happened. Why was she suddenly hated by everyone?

With tears streaming from the corners of her eyes, Naomi said in a choked voice: "I...I know I ran around and put you in danger. I know I was wrong. I'm sorry. Please forgive me. I really didn't mean it."

 But no matter how she apologized, these former relatives were indifferent and just stared at her with cold eyes, fearing that she would run away.

 Naomi sat helplessly on the ground, she didn't know what happened or what to do.

Is this really the influence of the witch's illusion, or have they never accepted themselves? What on earth are you waiting for when you are trapped here?

Just when Naomi fell into despair, the door of the hotel was suddenly opened, and a man and a woman walked in side by side.

Naomi recognized the young man at a glance and said excitedly: "It's you! Mr. Lich!"

Amberxiu smiled at the little girl and said, "We meet again, why are you crying? Did you guess that you are going to give me money again later?"

"Ah? What did you say?" Naomi was so shocked by Amber Xiu's words that she almost held back tears.

Amberxiu did not continue to explain, but turned to look at the druids with strange expressions, and then said: "I saved you last time, so you should leave. If you insist on staying here to cooperate with those lunatics, you can't blame others for seeking your own death." ”

Without a word of nonsense, Van Jones roared and his body expanded and turned into a grizzly bear.

The same goes for other druids, who transform when they transform, and cast when they cast spells.

In the blink of an eye, several magic vines whipped towards Amber Xiu, followed closely by two ravens and three wild wolves.

But such a ferocious attack could not cause any harm to Amber Xiu, because the Queen of the Undead standing next to him had already taken action in advance.

 Dark green energy lit up between her fingers, rippling like water waves, withering life wherever it touched.

This is the most basic necromancy spell, cold touch, which causes necrotic energy damage to living targets.

In the hands of other necromancers, it is at most a trick, but when Apoptotic Rose casts this most basic necromancy spell, it is the same as a high-level necromancy spell. Not only does it turn a single spell into a group damage, its power is unknown. How many times has it doubled?

The magic vines immediately shattered into ashes when they came into contact with the necrotic energy. The druids who had turned into beasts howled under the illumination of dark green light. The transformation effect was broken almost in the blink of an eye, and they turned into human forms again. , and then quickly turned into mummies.

Van Jones never expected that his people would be so vulnerable, so he quickly wanted to take out the statue of Silvanus and use the power of the gods to fight against this terrible necromancy.

 But as soon as he had this thought, he felt his body become stiff.

The grizzly bear's body collapsed, and the mana in his body was completely out of control, allowing him to return to his human form.

 However, this is only the beginning.

Van Jones found that his skin was turning gray at a speed visible to the naked eye. There was no pain, only numbness. It was like the cells in his body were dying, and he was completely powerless to stop it.

 A faint rancid smell came from his body and penetrated into his own nostrils.

Fan Jones then realized that he was actually transforming into an undead.

I have never heard of a spell that can directly turn a living person into an undead. How can this lich be so terrifying?

Van Jones looked at Umbershoe in horror and opened his mouth to say something, but in the end no words came out. Because most of his body had been transformed into undead, his lifeless lungs could not breathe out, and his stiff neck could not vibrate his vocal cords. In the end, he could only open his mouth, and then his whole body turned gray.

Naomi looked at the scene in front of her in shock. All her people died tragically in an instant. She didn't even react. The fear and confusion left her unable to even stand up.

Amberson walked to Naomi and said to her: "The truth is cruel, you should sleep first."

Amberxiu popped up a magical light and fell on Naomi, letting the poor Druid girl fall into a deep sleep.

 After doing all this, Amber Xiucai said to Apoptotic Rose: "Okay, now the initiative is in our hands, it's time to talk to those group of alchemists."
