Chapter 352 - 329: Threatening the Hell Lords
Amberser looked at the infuriated Zariel, hastily offering a conciliatory smile and said, "How could this be considered blasphemy? My respect for you has not diminished one bit, it’s just that I genuinely can’t find a warrior who matches Melina. You’ve also seen Melina’s power, there really isn’t anyone in Gloomyland who could give her a fierce and satisfying battle."
Zariel snorted coldly and told Amberser, "You could capture a paladin from Laine, I’m quite interested in that."
"What a coincidence, that’s exactly what I had in mind, which is why I summoned you. Do you have any interest in Laine?"
Looking at Amberser’s beaming face, Zariel suddenly had a bizarre feeling: was this Lich setting a trap for her to fall into?
After their last encounter, Amberser had left Zariel with a very unpleasant feeling. No wonder so many Deities loathed this Lich to their bones — his words sounded pleasant, yet Zariel felt deeply unsettled.
Being this cunning, to the extent that even Deities could sense it, how had this Lich not ascended to godhood?
At the very least, he could be a god of weak divine power, perhaps the God of Deceit?
Amberser had no idea what Zariel was thinking at that moment, continuing to pitch, "I know Hell needs a great number of souls, and I happen to specialize in creating souls. Whatever kind you want, I can weave. If I capture a paladin, I could clone his soul dozens of times. Surely if I presented them to you, it would be a fine gift, right?"
The soul of a paladin, ah, that could be made into the finest Soul Coins, which are hard currency in Hell. Could this Lich really pull it off?
"You can create souls?" inquired Zariel.
