I Live Forever in Memory

"Wait, Alliance? You mean..." Jilknever was a little startled, "The kingdom also joined the Alliance?"

"That's right. The current actual controller of the kingdom, Princess Lana, has sent envoys to our country. I agree to join the alliance to deal with—"

"and many more!"

Jilknever stood up all of a sudden, frowning.

"Why did you invite her to join? As far as I know, a part of the 'hundred-year disaster' you mentioned is in the Kingdom! And it still exists in the form of supporting Lana!"

"what?"

"What is the basis?"

Jilknever sneered when he heard the words: "I don't believe you didn't pay attention to the civil war in the kingdom."

"..."

The priests were silent for a while, and one of them said: "We paid attention, so that's the case, you are talking about the man named 'Li Lin', right? Do you think he is a part of the century-old disaster? No, he is not."

"That--"

"The real disaster is an organization called 'Great Tomb'. They are composed of alien species, they are powerful, and their lair is probably in the Kingdom..."

Jilknever's expression froze when he heard the specific location, and then he blurted out: "That ruin?! Oops!"

Chapter 037: Time to Warm Up

"[Grip of Flame]!"

"[Thunder Attraction]!"

"[Super Ability Enhanced Starfall]!"

"[Black Gloves]!"

Large and small, colorful lights exploded in the square, like fireworks.They all originated from the hands of adventurers, and bloomed on Cocytus's body, as if covering his tall body.

But in the next moment, it rushed out of the sway, and the blood-stained giant ax held horizontally in both hands continued to harvest two heads.Those two adventurers were both magic casters, and their heads flew up in resignation, crushing the last hope of the remaining seven or eight people.

"monster!!"

"Woooooooo..."

Some people roared in despair, some cried helplessly, and they didn't have the courage to continue fighting.With so many people, even the slightest damage can't be done to this monster, and the battle is completely meaningless.

"Have you surrendered?"

Cocytus saw that the rest of them lost their will to fight, and their axes were hanging on the ground.It's meaningless to kill people who don't resist.

He asked in a low voice, "Master Ainz, what should we do now?"

Momonga was sitting in the main hall at the moment, he listened to the question and looked at the screen.

Not only the entrance of Cocytus, but the adventurers who chose the other two passages also encountered heavily armed guardians.Even the adventurers who chose the passage of Cocytus were lucky enough to be killed in one blow without suffering any pain.

But adventurers who chose the two paths of Demiurge and Shalltear were not so comfortable.

"Three passages, the adventurers were completely defeated, and they couldn't cause any damage to the guardians." Albedo did not hide the contempt in her tone and eyes, "Bugs are just bugs after all."

"Well……"

Momonga was lost in thought.

He was quite nervous at first, thinking that if a powerful player came, he could destroy the Great Tomb without paying any losses.

He also prepared several plans for this, but now it seems that it is completely unfounded-none of the dozens of adventurers who came are players.It's impossible to even hurt the guardian, let alone him.

"From this point of view, the empire may not have players like Li Lin."

"Yes."

"In this case, the plan will continue to be implemented. Capture the humans who have not died. They are all high-level adventurers and can be used as good experimental subjects."

"Yes, Ainz-sama."

The guardians stopped killing and arrested the remaining less than ten adventurers.

They all showed a look of luck, as if they were still thinking that as long as they were not killed, they might still have a chance to escape.

Just run away and never come again!No, not even adventurers!With the existence of such monsters, what is the point of adventurers' work!

A few people made up their minds secretly, but what they didn't know was that they would never have the opportunity to "disarm and return to the fields".Here, at such a time, it would be an extreme misfortune to survive.

No one cared about the fate of the little people. After Ainz judged the fact that there were no powerful players in the empire, he immediately prepared for the next step—invoking a teacher to punish him.

This was originally planned, to conquer the empire after taking down the players.With the resources of the entire country in hand, it is more convenient to collect intelligence or conduct experiments secretly.Anyway, the most indispensable thing in a country is people.

On the other hand, when the Theocracy learned that the location of the "disaster" lair overlapped with the location of the "remains", the young emperor Jilknif also immediately understood that this might be a trap.A trap for their empire.

Up to now, he has not concealed this matter, told the priests of the Theocracy, and asked for their help.

"In the name of the Confederacy," Jilknever said, "you must help us."

"..."

Several priests thought to themselves, this young emperor deserves to be regarded by the people of the empire as the generation of emperors who can lead the country to rise. First of all, it is rare for young people not to pay attention to face.

"What do you think is the purpose of the mastermind?"
