Chapter 755: Chapter 755 The Trapped Ainz
After Shalltear's death, Antilene wasted no time and immediately fled with her team.
After all, she knew she couldn't handle the entire Great Tomb on her own, so she quickly ran away. This time, the Bloody Emperor and the others also saw this very shocking scene.
After that, if there's no accident, the Bloody Emperor would likely leak information about Antilene to save his own skin. This would result in Antilene and the Slane Theocracy being targeted by the Great Tomb, allowing Renner and her allies to focus on the Great Tomb's movements.
Once the Great Tomb's forces left their base, Renner's group would invade immediately, effectively crippling the Great Tomb.
Without the Great Tomb as their foundation, Ainz and his followers would lose their resurrection capabilities, making every death permanent.
Not to mention them, when Shalltear died, Ainz immediately sensed it. Because Antilene's team moved so quickly, they didn't notice anything until Shalltear was already dead.
The reason why Ainz was able to know immediately after Shalltear died is also because of the weakened game system, which was brought with them to this world. However, it is not very complete, and it is no longer needed to release of skills. Ainz and his people only need to read the spell themselves to mobilize their magic power, making it very convenient.
The system also allowed them to see the status of their controlled characters, but they had to check manually. In addition to these, there is one critical feature that still worked, which is the death notifications.
As the ruler of the Great Tomb, Ainz would be immediately alerted to any guardian's death. After opening the list, Ainz found that Shalltear's name turn gray in the list.
The others' names remained bright, which meant that Shalltear was indeed killed. In an instant, A surge of anger washed over Ainz, but because of his undead characteristics, he was directly forced to stay calm.
"Albedo, summon all the guardians of the Nazarick to the hall for a meeting!"
Leaving this command, Ainz went to retrieve the items to resurrect Shalltear. At this moment, although he was still a little angry, he wasn't furious enough to lose control. However, he couldn't fathom how Shalltear had died.
Someone actually managed to kill her without giving her time to call for help, which both shocked and enraged him. What shocked him the most was that someone actually killed Shalltear. It must be known that even he can hardly kill the other party.
If they really fight, without enough preparation, it would be almost impossible for Ainz to win against the guardians.
He needed information. While he had a general idea of what was happening, he had confirmed that none of the known powerful figures had moved.
His emissaries kept an eye on these figures, ensuring they stayed in place.
As he is confident in this surveillance, that's why he had sent Shalltear alone to attack a nation, believing it was a safe bet.
At this moment, he finally realized the world was full of hidden dangers, with powerful individuals capable of such feats.
Of course, regarding how Shalltear died, he still needs to wait for Shalltear to be resurrected to obtain the information.
Ainz quickly brought the resurrection items to the hall, where the other guardians had gathered…
"These items... Ainz-sama, does this mean someone has…"
Demiurge immediately sensed something was wrong, and Ainz's skeletal head nodded in agreement.
"Yes, Shalltear has been killed, and she didn't even have time to call for help. Now, I am going to resurrect her. Keep an eye on things and find out exactly what happened to her. This world is not as simple as we initially thought. The Lizardmen were merely an exception!"
Ainz is now a little frightened, feeling that the whole world is conspiring against him Despite this paranoia, he needed to understand the situation thoroughly. His dark alignment was drawing more opposition, as his malevolent presence was becoming a tangible threat.
Unlike in the game, where evil alignments were just numbers, in this reality, they had real consequences. Ainz's descent into darkness was subtle but ongoing, making his elimination necessary for those who wished to avoid being ruled by an entirely evil entity.
Reality can affect people, so Flying Squirrel is gradually moving closer to the darkness.He himself didn't realize this problem, so it definitely won't work if he doesn't get rid of him.
Soon, Ainz who completed a series of preparations directly spent a lot of gold coins and items to resurrect Shalltear. Reviving a guardian like her was immensely challenging. Given Shalltear's nature as a vampire, her revival would be straightforward if her body remained intact.
And, to permanently kill her, one would have to obliterate her body entirely, otherwise they can't kill this super vampire.
Fortunately, Ainz managed to bring her back swiftly, watching as her body reformed.
Having previously revived Solution and Sebas, the guardians anxiously observed Shalltear's revival, relieved when her name didn't change color upon resurrection.
After all, what happened to Sebas had already scared them. In case someone controlled Shalltear and let her fake death, and then sent her here, using their resurrection skills to target them, it would be very scary.
"Shalltear, if you wake up, quickly tell me what happened!"
Ainz urgently wants to know the situation, after all, this involves their safety.
Shalltear, upon reviving, recounted her encounter in detail.
"I can understand facing someone with comparable strength, but how did they know your weaknesses and possess such powerful items?"
Ainz quickly identified the issue and analyzed it, concluding that he needed to interrogate someone for answers. As for who to ask, it is naturally the Bloody Emperor.
Anyway, this guy can't run from his huge empire, so Ainz decided to confront him directly.
Gazeef and the others had been monitoring the Great Tomb. Their perception is now very terrifying, and it is more terrifying than a magician. This is the result of decades of hard work.
Therefore, they can perceive the actions of Ainz and the others. Even if they use space magic, there will be magic fluctuations, these fluctuations will become looming under the barrier of the Great Tomb. But they can still directly perceive it.
