Chapter 756: Chapter 756 Antilene Raids The Theocracy's Vault
After Ainz and his group set off, Antilene received the news immediately. After receiving the news, Antilene directly infiltrated the Slane Theocracy's vault. There are quite a lot of things here, so once inside, Antilene immediately contacted her allies.
The group of people used spatial magic to teleport directly to her location. Antilene possessed coordinates provided by Renner, a skilled magic user capable of easily transporting the team to the vault.
"Sure enough, the Slane Theocracy's foundation is very good. As expected from the legacy left by the Six Great Gods. Then, let's get to work, everyone. Take away all the things worth taking away from here!"
Renner instructed before starting to collect items herself. The others followed suit, although lacking spatial storage themselves, they gathered items and passed them to Renner, who then transported them back to the palace.
This process only lasted for less than half a minute, and the entire treasure vault was almost emptied. It is estimated that when the Slane Theocracy's people see this scene, they will definitely collapse directly, as they was completely ransacked.
After completing the raid, Renner used spatial magic to return to the palace with Antilene and the others. They then began assessing the artifacts' effectiveness with Antilene's help.
These artifacts were indeed powerful, but their main focus is still on the Great Tomb. Although Ainz and his group had left, they could return at any time, making the Tomb a tricky target, so the best strategy was to wait.
Once Ainz and the others engaged in battle and were too occupied to defend the Tomb, Renner planned to seal off the surrounding space, allowing her team to breach the Great Tomb easily and loot it.
Many items in the Great Tomb's vault were specifically designed to counter their own weaknesses. The reason why such items and weapons are collected is because they are scared it would fall into the enemies' hands, so in order to prevent them from falling into the hands of others, they have all been collected.
"Now, we wait. When the Slane Theocracy and the Great Tomb engage in battle, we will invade the Great Tomb directly!"
At this moment, the group gathered in Renner's palace, monitoring the Theocracy through surveillance devices planted by Antilene. With this, they could observe the unfolding events effortlessly.
At this moment, The Theocracy was in disarray, alarmed by Ainz's arrival. With teleportation skills at their disposal, Ainz and his team moved quickly, their approach swift and formidable. Despite being forced into a state of calm by his undead nature, Ainz's anger over Shalltear's attack fueled his determination.
Ainz, unwilling to tolerate harm to his subordinates, mobilized a substantial portion of his forces, ready to retaliate fiercely against the offenders.
"Damn it, where's Antilene? Where did she run off to? And hurry up, get all the weapons and artifacts out, or we're finished this time!"
The old Pope was shouting frantically. At this moment, he was about to cry.
"Your Holiness, it's not that we don't want to retrieve the artifacts. Earlier, Lady Antilene entered the vault and hasn't come out since. We've checked, and all the artifacts are gone. They've been stolen!
The guard reported helplessly, feeling that today was surely the end for the Slane Theocracy. With so many powerful enemies eyeing them, the Slane Theocracy originally had sufficient strength and artifacts to defend themselves. However, with their strongest asset, Antilene, now on the run and having taken countless artifacts with her, their foundation had been severely undermined.
The Pope was dumbfounded by the news, almost fainting on the spot. As a descendant of the Six Great Gods, why would Antilene do such a thing? He couldn't comprehend it. It was akin to a crown prince absconding with all the royal treasures; anyone would be confused.
The old Pope couldn't bear the strain any longer and collapsed. With their most crucial artifacts gone and Antilene nowhere to be found, they were defenseless against the impending threat. The Pope realized that without those artifacts, they stood no chance and would be easily defeated by their enemies.
Meanwhile, Ainz had already unleashed a Super Magic, though he was merely testing the waters to see if there were any players involved. Super-Tier Magic was incredibly powerful, and in the game, using it would attract massive attention and retaliation.
Super-Tier Magic required cash items to bypass the cooldown period, making it a significant risk. The game mechanics dictated that once someone started using Super Magic, they would become the primary target for all attacks. Hence, tanks would typically protect these casters to ensure the successful release of the spell.
"It seems there are no players here, otherwise, they would have reacted to a Super Magic. No one would stay indifferent unless they have a death wish!"
Ainz almost understood what was going on. There were indeed no players here, otherwise, no one would be foolish enough to stand still while someone cast a super-tier magic spell. After all, once it was cast, it would kill everyone immediately.
Meanwhile, Renner and the others also witnessed this scene and immediately set off for the Great Tomb. Ainz would never have dreamed that during his absence, someone would come to ransack his home. But a guardian has died, although she was resurrected, it still enraged Ainz.
Moreover, Ainz had not been without protective measures. From his perspective, there were only a few high-level experts, and leaving a few Guardians to protect the Great Tomb would be sufficient while the others went out to find a fight.
What Ainz did not anticipate was that the Re-Estize Kingdom had nine individuals at level 100, plus an extremely well-armed Antilene, which is enough to take care of the other small fries.
Furthermore, Princess Renner's spatial magic directly locked the surrounding space, preventing Ainz and his men from teleporting back to provide support.
As Ainz prepared to release his Super Magic, Renner and the others launched a direct assault on the Great Tomb, sweeping through it effortlessly.
They didn't know the location of the treasury, but this didn't hinder the ten of them from splitting up. The only one who didn't act alone is Antilene, because it was difficult for her to deal with a Guardian in a one-on-one situation.
So, she teamed up with the relatively weaker Gagaran. This way, the two of them together wouldn't have to worry about any Guardian they might encounter.
Just like that, the group quickly infiltrated the interior of the Great Tomb. With space locked, unless someone could break through this area, only the caster could release the spell... which was impossible since Ainz and his group were not there, rendering everything futile.
