"Hehe, it will be done soon, don't worry."
"You've said this at least three times! I can't wait any longer." The Dusk Cultist with dark circles under his eyes suddenly attacked the Necromancer. The group of cultists surrounded the Necromancer, "Khajit, you go first. Now please hand over the item that controls the undead to us so that we can complete our plan."
Khajiit del Badantiel had not expected that this little bastard would start a fight right away. He was simply an unreasonable madman. What was worst was that the opponent was indeed very strong. The terrifying fire magic they used was simply the nemesis of the undead. Just a little contact would instantly destroy them. After finally dodging the opponent's attack and keeping a certain distance, he loudly questioned, "What are you doing?! I see that we are allies as agreed upon."
"Yes, Khajiit, that's why I decided to redeem you. But why are you resisting so much? Ragnarok is the greatest salvation. I'm giving you the best salvation. Why are you hiding?"
"madman!"
Khajiit cursed.
Originally he thought that what he was going to do was unorthodox and crazy enough, but now it seems that it is still far from being a real madman.
Because these lunatics have nothing in their minds except the so-called yellow
He is blindly obsessed with faith and has nothing else. Such a person is the most terrifying because you have no idea what he will do, just like he did not expect that the other party would suddenly attack him.
"How sad and unfortunate it is that you rejected my kindness and the power of the goddess. But don't be afraid, because I will definitely help you, Khajiit, to understand this, accept the flame of dusk, and become our compatriot. Come, dedicate all your life to the goddess and usher in the day of redemption!"
"hateful."
Khajiit felt deeply fearful as he watched the undead under his control being purified by flames one after another.
While summoning new undead to block the way, he was already preparing to escape to the retreat route. Although he did have a trump card, he was not blindly stupid enough to fight against a group of guys who were not afraid of death and had magic that could restrain the undead.
"Hahaha, it's useless, all is useless! No matter living or dead, they are all treated equally in the eyes of my God. How great is my God's mercy! Come on, continue to use more of your means." The Bishop of Dusk opened his arms, and as soon as the undead approached, they were ignited into torches by the breath of destruction. What's more frightening is that as the number of killings increased, the breath and magic power of these believers became stronger.
Seeing this, Khajiit understood the real purpose of these people wanting to start a massacre. Maybe their beliefs were true, but the so-called salvation was definitely bullshit. It was just that the evil god they believed in gave them a way to increase their strength through killing, so they wanted to do things like massacre the city. And this method seemed to have no restrictions on the target, and it was also effective against the undead. He could already imagine himself cooperating with them, and finally being betrayed and stabbed by these cultists. They were definitely capable of doing this.
"Tsk, what a bunch of troublesome lunatics."
Khajiit entered a passage and ran away without saying a word. He didn't intend to stay and fight with this group of people. Although he didn't want to admit it, those crazy people were the most difficult guys he had ever seen. Not only did they restrain his magic, but they could also continue to become stronger by killing undead. He had no chance of winning against such guys.
Even if he could summon powerful undead creatures like bone dragons, he would not have the confidence to deal with these Twilight Cultists, because the Twilight Cultists' fire magic was beyond his understanding. That kind of magic seemed to be able to ignore all resistances and cause real damage. Even a monster like the bone dragon with extremely high magic resistance might not stand a chance of winning.
The Twilight Archbishop looked at the fleeing Khajiit and did not chase him. Instead, he stayed underground to continue destroying the undead army summoned by Khajiit. Originally, these were the forces summoned by Khajiit to destroy the city. It was only because of the lack of means to control these undead that they were not activated. Now releasing them to deal with the Twilight Cultists was equivalent to sending a large wave of experience babies. Faced with the big gift package sent by Khajiit, the Twilight Archbishop said that he would obey the order and purify all these undead!
As for Khajiit?
Humph, this guy can't run away. That undead treasure is really useless to their Twilight Sect, but since he said he would redeem Khajiit, then he would keep his word. The Twilight Archbishop led a group of believers to kill happily underground. Originally, so many undead were very scary in action, but these dozen people were more terrifying than these undead.
As the killing continued, each believer's strength became stronger and stronger, and the expressions on their faces became more fanatical. Such miraculous power made their faith even more loyal.
And at the same time.
Tragedy occurred across the kingdom.
Those Dusk cultists dressed in red priest costumes appeared before the world as absolute terrors the moment they were born. Tragedies occurred in one city after another, catching the king and the nobles off guard.
At the same time, the Platinum Dragon King, who had just suffered a setback at the hands of the Theocracy and failed to invite Juesijueming, felt the breath of the evil god in the prophecy when he was preparing to go to the Empire. On the way, he disrupted the action plan of a Dusk branch and made a very serious decision to destroy this cult because they believed in the evil god who was prophesied to destroy the world!
[Chapter 61: The Supreme of Working]
In the two weeks since Shalltear's rebellion, Nazarick has not encountered a new round of attacks, and Ainz even began to doubt whether his guess was correct. You know, in order to expose the opponent's flaws, he even used Sebastian, who was on a mission, as bait, and let Sebastian continue to carry out the mission without telling Sebastian anything.
If someone was really targeting them, he thought the other party would not miss this opportunity.
But now he really couldn't detect any information about his opponent. Either the opponent was a very powerful tactician who had predicted all of his moves and avoided them all, but that possibility was almost zero. Even Ainz didn't think there would be a tactician of that level among the players. Or his previous guess was wrong, and Shalltear's rebellion was not a deliberate target, but just an accident.
Ainz felt a little tired. "It would be great if the resurrected Shalltear could still remember what happened during that time. Unfortunately, she doesn't remember the most crucial part at all. She doesn't remember what happened to her that caused her to become like that. But if she hadn't encountered a very powerful enemy,
"Shalltear can't possibly show up fully armed. We can't be careless now. Maybe the enemy is just watching for an opportunity. Sebastian's mission will continue, and surveillance and regular reports cannot be neglected. For the time being, we should keep the status quo and continue to observe for a while."
However, in order to continue Sebastian's mission, Ainz had to continue to disguise himself as the adventurer Momo and go to E-Rantel to make money. Although the gold coins in the game can also be used in this world, they are even more valuable.
However, even if there are a lot of gold coins in the guild storage and his personal storage, the game coins will become less and less as they are used. If there is no way to obtain them, it is better not to waste the game coins if possible.
Because in order to use certain functions of the guild, or to use certain items, gold coins are required as a price. One thing that is clear at the moment is that the gold coins in this world cannot directly replace the game gold coins.
Therefore, unless it is absolutely necessary, Ainz wants to use the native gold coins of this world as much as possible to fund his daily activities.
Therefore, as the president, he had to make money, and being an adventurer was the way he chose to make money. If he used some inhumane means to make money, it would be much easier with the power of Nazarick. But Ainz was not so crazy as to do that. If he had the ability to make money through legitimate means, he would not choose to do so. However, Ainz was also worried about his business ability. Because the speed of adventurer level upgrade was too slow, he now had to do many tasks every day to meet the expenses of each guardian.
"Is there no major event that can make me famous and become a high-level adventurer?"
Ainz finished his mission for the day and sat by the window in the restaurant, staring out in a daze.
After recent efforts, his adventurer level has climbed from the lowest bronze level to silver level. Although he is very powerful, the Adventurer's Guild's rule is that adventurers of their own level can only accept commissions of that level. Even if he has amazing strength, he cannot skip levels to accept higher-level commissions.
There are two ways to upgrade the adventurer level. One is to continuously complete tasks. When the total amount reaches the standard, you will be upgraded. The other is to encounter some unexpected events and make great contributions in this event, thereby gaining great reputation and proving your own strength. The Adventurer's Guild will then re-evaluate you and upgrade your level based on the strength and contribution shown by the adventurer in this event. This type of upgrade can be said to be the fastest.
According to the information Ainz received, the sword master had once been promoted directly to the highest level, the steel-class adventurer, for his great feat of killing the demon king.
To be honest, when he knew that a low-level BOSS like the Goblin King had such value, he really wanted to summon a Goblin King himself, and then kill it to increase the adventurer's level. But unfortunately, this is not feasible. Because the adventurer Momo is different from the sword master. The sword master himself has a legendary background bonus, and his identity is innocent and does not need to be verified. But this adventurer Momo is a guy with unknown origins. Even if he took out the body of the Goblin King, I am afraid that people will doubt his origins and purpose at the first time.
That's why he hopes to encounter an event.
If he could encounter an event like the last "vampire incident", he could save the city as an adventurer, and he would definitely be able to upgrade his adventurer rank. But unfortunately, he had already secretly solved the vampire incident. Although the bounty in the city was still hanging there, he couldn't let Shalltear play a trick with him. If he did, his true identity would probably be exposed. Let alone other people, if there were really players, they would definitely be able to detect the truth that adventurer Momo was colluding with Nazarick through this incident.
Ah, headache~
Why did he have to rack his brains for money and promotion in a different world? He was Ainz Ooal Gown, the supreme ruler~ Well, it was still embarrassing to think like that, but I was getting used to it. Because people would call him that every day, it was hard not to get used to it. But could he really do it? Could he really be such a big shot and protect everyone in Nazarick? Ainz lacked confidence in his own abilities.
Nabe heard what Ainz-sama said from the side.
"Mr. Momo, if you are looking for an incident, I heard that a group called the Twilight Goddess Cult is carrying out large-scale attacks within the kingdom. The ruler of E-Rantel also issued a commission to investigate this group not long ago."
"..."
Ainz was a little disappointed when he heard Nabe's respectful address, but after hearing Nabe's next words, he looked at Nabe in surprise. He had never thought that Nabe, who had no idea of the ways of the world and could even be said to be disdainful of standing with humans, had grown to this point and successfully collected such very useful information without his knowledge.
"Huh?"
"A cult?"
"Let's hear the details."
[Chapter 62: Judgment Angel]
"Cult of the Dusk Goddess".
This is not actually the official name of the sect.
Called.
The people of this sect call themselves "the messenger of the goddess" and "the goddess cult". Dusk is just the goddess they believe in and the symbol of their power. It is said that the magic of dusk attribute they hold has the real damage effect that ignores all magic resistance. Moreover, the cult itself will gain stronger power as the group expands, the scope of activities expands, and the scope of disasters caused expands. It is currently known that the various bishops of this cult have combat power comparable to that of heroes, and the two steel-level adventurers of the kingdom have also suffered defeats at the hands of the group.
The Goddess Church's doctrine believes that the end of all things is the day of salvation, so they are keen on destruction and killing. Moreover, the followers of the Goddess Church are not afraid of life and death, and can often exert stronger power in battle. It is said that two cities have been captured by the Goddess Church. The people in the cities either joined the Goddess Church or were ruthlessly slaughtered. The whole kingdom was shocked by this, and the rulers of each city were extremely nervous, fearing that the Goddess Church would appear in their city in the next moment.
Recently, someone in Ye-Lantir saw the Goddess Cult, and the mayor also issued a bounty in the Adventurer's Guild. As long as someone reports it and the information is true, they will receive a generous bonus. It seems that the mayor is also very afraid of the Goddess Cult's reputation. After all, the Goddess Cult's record is real. Two cities became a sea of fire overnight. No matter whether they were nobles or civilians, they were all ruthlessly buried by the Goddess Cult. That evil cult organization is an existence that cannot be communicated and negotiated. They came only to destroy and ruin, and they don't care about any interests at all.
Ainz and Nabe came to the underground labyrinth of the city of E-Rantel. Although they had heard that the underground passages in E-Rantel were very complicated, they had never thought that it would reach this level. Ainz looked at the terrain in front of him, which was comparable to a large labyrinth dungeon, and thought to himself, no wonder the Goddess Cult could come and go freely, the existence of this underground labyrinth is simply the best way in and out. However, the rulers of E-Rantel must have a map of this underground labyrinth. After all, this place was developed by them. Maybe there is an escape route prepared in case of an emergency.
However, since they did not find the Goddess Cult hiding here, it means that this underground maze is very likely to have fallen into the control of the Goddess Cult. However, as long as you think about the strength shown by the Goddess Cult, this does not seem to be unexpected.
“Nabe, be careful. If the information is not exaggerated, then the other party may have some very tricky skills.” Ainz took out his two swords and held them in his hands, saying cautiously, “I have only seen skills with true damage in some special professions and items with large restrictions. The origin of this goddess cult is probably extremely terrifying. The Dusk Goddess only leaked a little power to allow these believers to obtain this special skill. I am afraid that it is very likely that they are able to rival the new version of the world-class BOSS.”
A BOSS of that level.
It was possible to attempt to conquer Nazarick during its heyday, but Ainz said that it would be better not to dream about it now. The current Nazarick is much weaker than before.
Nabe nodded seriously.
Ainz did not take the followers of the Goddess Church seriously. After all, he had figured out the power levels of this world. The so-called heroes would probably be no more than level 30 in the game.
Except for the Imperial Sword Master and the Theocracy Special Master who was tortured out of the Theocracy's soldiers' minds, the rest of the heroes are basically at this level, not too much higher. Because the warrior leaders he sent back are now at this so-called hero level. The origin of the Goddess Church has been investigated very clearly, especially the bishops who have appeared. Their identities were investigated by the kingdom at the first time. They were just missing civilians. They originally did not have the talent of professionals, but only because of the so-called "Goddess's Gospel" did they obtain this special profession and the strength equivalent to the hero level.
He didn't think that such a person could reach the level of a sword master overnight, because it was really against common sense. Even a cautious person like him didn't think that such a thing could happen. But even if he thought so in his heart, Ainz had no intention of saying it out loud. He was extremely cautious, as if he was about to defeat a world-class boss. He didn't relax at all. It was because of his appearance that Nabe's emotions were affected.
However, as Ainz and his companions gradually went deeper into the underground maze, Ainz suddenly felt an extremely familiar magical reaction deep underground.
Because it is of the same nature as his magical reaction, it is very easy to sense.
He asked Nabe next to him, "Are there necromancers like me in the Goddess Church?"
"No, the intelligence shows that the people of the Goddess Church can only use fire magic with unique properties. There is no information about necromancers, but there is no intelligence showing that there are no people in the Goddess Church who can use other types of magic." Nabe also felt that there was a smell of the undead underground.
Ainz nodded. "Well, it looks like we have won the prize this time. Let's go in and take a look."
The adventurer wearing black armor and holding two huge swords rushed into the room that exuded the breath of the undead.
Two huge skeleton dragon corpses lay to the side, with a charred corpse fixed in the center. The magical reaction that Ainz felt came from this corpse.
"This is?"
Ainz collected an item from the corpse.
Suddenly, torches were lit all around.
Figures dressed in red priest costumes with hats covering their faces poured out from the passages in all directions and surrounded Ainz and Nabe.
"You are the Goddess Cult?"
"..."
No one answered Ainz's question.
The people of the Goddess Cult were extremely silent.
"It seems that the situation is somewhat different from what was said in the rumors. I am very curious about your story." Ainz originally thought that the members of the Goddess Cult were all a bunch of lunatics, but the people before him were extremely calm. He did not sense any unnecessary emotions from them.
But the next scene.
It made him overturn his own view at that moment.
“For the arrival of the Day of Redemption, we offer our sincere faith to the goddess! Uh uh uh ahhhh——”
Without a word, the people of the Goddess Cult began to self-destruct. One by one, the red robes turned into fire figures, and the temperature of the air rose sharply. Ainz cursed in his heart that he was a madman.
These guys actually started the sacrifice without saying a word. He looked at the monster coming out of the flames with caution. No, if it was a monster, it would be too sacred. Ainz took a breath of cold air. It was an angel. And it was not an alien angel, but an angel with the same appearance as the angels in the Bible. It was a gorgeous humanoid, with rich armor all over its body, six wings formed by flames, and a holy sword in its hand. It exuded an extremely sacred aura and the breath of Judgment Day.
Ainz canceled his disguise skill without saying a word.
The dark adventurer disappeared, and what reappeared here was the terrifying Ruler of Death.
"Be careful, this guy is a high-level angel, and it is very likely that his attacks will cause true damage. Don't take his attack head-on."
He reminded.
Ainz could tell that the level of this angel was not high, because the believers who performed the sacrifice and summoning did not have the ability to summon high-level angels, but they succeeded in summoning them. The angel in front of him was undoubtedly a high-level angel, but the level of this body was not up to that of a high-level angel. Its essence was not affected, so the normal level could not be used to measure this angel.
[Chapter 63: Monster Double Immunity vs. Instant Death]
"boom!"
The flames exploded, and the intense heat waves spread in all directions, shaking the entire underground labyrinth. The pedestrians on the ground thought there was an earthquake, and the entire labyrinth room was surrounded by sacred flames, forming a closed area. ——The Archangel of Judgment has arrived!
Ainz saw this and decisively stretched out a finger to use a magic skill: ——【Ten Thousand Thunders】
A terrifying thunder roared, and the flames on the Archangel of Judgment were instantly covered by a pillar of lightning. The color of the entire room changed because of the thunder.
Although he didn't have time to stack buffs on himself, Ainz could still use high-level magic under normal circumstances. If a normal level 50 angel encountered Ainz's attack, it would basically be killed instantly. In the game setting, the gap between levels is getting bigger and bigger. Under normal circumstances, a full-level Ainz can kill monsters below level 50 by using low-level magic.
But it was obvious that the Archangel of Judgment was not within this range. The angel stood still in the lightning, waiting for the lightning attack to end, and the firelight illuminated the entire space again, even emitting a stronger momentum.
Ainz looked at this scene and said in amazement: "Is this... a property that absorbs magic?!"
The skills this angel possessed were far beyond his imagination, and could even be said to be quite tricky.
"You protect me."
Ainz gave Nabe his orders.
They were both magicians. Nabe was only level 63, a little higher than the Archangel of Judgment. But if they really fought, Ainz didn't think Nabe had any chance of winning. This was because the Archangel of Judgment was too restrained. The Archangel of Judgment not only had the attributes of fire and holiness that specifically restrained evil races, but also had the special racial skill of absorbing magic. As an evil race and an elemental mage, Nabe was restrained by the ability of this angel in all aspects.
As an undead and necromancer, he is not much better than Nabe, but he is at the maximum level, and just this one point is enough to ignore the attribute restraint. The level gap is more obvious in reality than in the game, so Ainz is still not panicking now, and he also has the skills to eliminate the attribute restraint. As a krypton gold player who is good at using props and support skills, Ainz can exert strength beyond the panel as long as he is given enough preparation time.
"Yes."
Nabe walked to the front position.
Ainz then began to use his skills on the two people from behind:
[High-level magic damage immunity]
[High-level physical damage immunity]
[High-level Death Aura Amplification]
[High-level detection]
......
Rays of light flickered on them.
The Archangel of Judgment raised the holy sword with both hands. Magnificent hymns rang out around him. The holy breath purified the air, and a pillar of fire fell from the sky. Ainz, who was still using his skills, froze and watched the pillar of fire fall.
It's not that he doesn't want to move, it's that he can't move.
