The Great Tomb of Nasarik, the lowest level.

The succubus's words immediately shocked everyone here.

"Lord Ainz, Shatia. Brad Fren was confirmed dead. ”

"Is this true?"

Sitting on the throne was a huge skeleton of bones, dressed in a mage's robes, its dark eye sockets glowing with a dark red glow of negative energy.

"Yes, it has been confirmed that her name has disappeared from the list."

The succubus nodded and said, and when they heard her report, the others looked at each other, and they all showed a look of solemnity. You must know that as a vampire, Shatia's combat power can be said to be one of the most powerful existences among them, but now, she has actually been killed?

"What the hell is going on? Can you confirm that? ”

"Sorry, we haven't gotten any useful information so far."

Standing next to him, the High Demon in a suit whispered.

"I suggest resurrecting Shatia at once and getting information."

"That's what I thought too."

Hearing the High Demon's answer, the lich sitting on the throne nodded.

"So, get ready."

Soon, the gold coins for resurrection were ready, and the lich stood up and raised the golden staff in his hand.

"Shatia, resurrect it!"

With the lich's roar, a ray of light was instantly released from the golden staff in his hand, and at the same time, the mountain of gold coins began to melt, condense, and then .........

"Nothing?"

Looking at the empty ground in front of him, there was panic in the lich's tone that could not be concealed.

"What's going on? Obviously the gold has been consumed, why hasn't Shatiya been resurrected?! ”

Seeing this, the others also showed surprised and uneasy expressions, originally for them, death was not the end. As long as their Supreme Being remains, then they can be resurrected. But right now, the killed Shatiya has not been resurrected again?

What the hell is going on?!

"Lord Ainz, please calm down."

Just when everyone was talking, I saw the High Demon stand up again.

"While we can't confirm exactly what happened, it's certain that Shatia has been killed and can't be resurrected. This is a major threat to us, and I suggest that we should investigate as much as we can about what is going on before making a decision. ”

"That's right."

Hearing this, the lich also let out a sigh and suppressed the uneasiness in his heart.

"But in any case, Shatia is dead, we can't just turn a blind eye, Shatia is a member of our Nazarik Great Tomb, and the attack on her is a provocation to our Nazarik Great Tomb!"

As he spoke, the lich waved his hand.

"Everyone listened to the order and immediately sent men to investigate what was going on! If there are any clues, they will be reported as soon as possible, understand? ”

"Yes!"

For Fang Zheng and the others, they didn't care about the big tomb or the morgue, after eliminating the vampire, the group continued to move forward, and soon came to the destination location. And after the Adventurers' Guild learned that Fang Zheng and the others had eliminated the vampire that had been wreaking havoc near the city for the past two days, it also immediately conducted an investigation, and after judging that everything was true, it gave them a considerable reward.

Fang Zheng himself was not an adventurer, so he only gave some money, but for the goddess officer who was an adventurer, Hui Hui and Ace, they were rewarded with upgrades——— although they were not able to play a role in the final battle to defeat the powerful vampire, but anyway, the previous vampires were also killed by them. This was confirmed by Fang Zheng and the caravan, so the Adventurer's Guild also raised the level of the three people, raising the three from the original white porcelain level to the obsidian level......... This also made the three of them quite excited.

Because of this, Megumi excitedly proposed to go to the tavern HAPPY, and of course the others would not refuse. So everyone went to the tavern, and then happily had a big meal.

"I really didn't expect it to be so easy to rise to obsidian."

After a full meal, the group went back to the hotel to rest, and walking on the road, Huihui still looked excited, jumping and jumping.

"It seems that it is only a matter of time before I am promoted to platinum, and by that time, the whole world will know the reputation of the Red Devil Grand Magician Megumi! A few vampires are no problem, so let's just challenge the Demon King next time! ”

That's why I'm pulling you so far.

Looking at the elated Huihui, Fang Zheng silently wiped a cold sweat. He was sure that with Megumi, the circuit of the second middle head, once she knew that the demon king Shabranigud had been resurrected, she would definitely rush in to join in the fun.

Fang Zheng didn't dare to give her this opportunity.

"Next, we can take on the obsidian-level mission, Fangzheng."

Hui Hui, who was jumping and jumping around the goddess and Ace, was obviously unsatisfied, and after turning around, she ran to Fang Zheng and asked.

"Pretty much......... It's up to you to cooperate. ”

Fang Zheng also had to admit that Huihui's burst magic was indeed a big killer, but this kind of ultimate move that could only be used once a day......... If no one cares, it will definitely not work.

But if you use it well, it's really useful.

"Haha, then let's go find some more challenging tasks! I don't want to go to the sewers or something! If you want to fight, you have to fight monsters like lich and headless horseman! ”

I won't let you go to the sewers if you want to.

Hearing this, Fang Zheng rolled his eyes helplessly.

In the deepest labyrinth, you buried us alive how many times, don't you have a number in your head?

"Ace, next time we'll ......... Yikes! ”

However, at this time, Megumi, who was walking backwards in front of the three of them, didn't seem to notice the situation under her feet, tripped a little, and then sat down on the ground with a heavy ass.

"Megumi, it's okay."

Seeing this, the goddess official also hurriedly ran over, while Megumi shook her head.

"It's okay......... Whew, what is this? ”

"Cloth bag?"

Looking at the white cloth bag at Huihui's feet, the goddess official was also a little puzzled, she stepped forward and opened the cloth bag, wanting to see what was inside. But after opening the bag,

"Knight! Come on! ”

"Huh?"

Hearing the slightly panicked voice of the goddess officer, Fang Zheng also glanced at Ace, and then walked forward. And after seeing the scene in front of him clearly, he finally understood why the goddess was so panicked.

What tripped Megumi was not garbage or stones, but a woman in a cloth bag. She looked older than Megumi and the Goddess Officer, and she was undressed. Not only that, but it can be clearly seen that the cheeks and body of the woman in front of her are full of marks of being beaten, not only the nose is blue and the face is swollen, but even the lips are torn apart, and it looks like she has been beaten countless times.

"It's too much! Who did this? Wait a minute, I'll save you right away! ”

As a priest, of course, the goddess would not turn a blind eye to this, and she hurriedly knelt beside the woman and stretched out her hand.

"Xiao Yu!"

Soon, the holy light emerged from the hands of the goddess official and covered the woman's body, which made the woman tremble slightly and slowly open her eyes. But even so, her breathing was unusually weak, and she looked as if she was about to die.

"Hey!!"

At this time, suddenly the door not far away opened, and then a sturdy man walked out, and when he saw this scene, he couldn't help frowning.

"Whoever told you to meddle in your business, get out of here!"

"But, but she's dying."

"It has nothing to do with you! Little girls, you ............"

As he spoke, the man stretched out his hand to the goddess officer, but at this moment, Ace next to him suddenly flashed, and then appeared on the man's side. Then the long sword in her hand and the scabbard poked hard at the man's stomach, and the next moment, with a strange scream and muffled snort, the man suddenly fell to his knees, and before he could stand up again, the cold blade was already attached to his neck.

"It has nothing to do with us."

It was only at this time that Fang Zheng walked over with his hands behind his back and swayed, the corners of his mouth slightly curled, and he looked at the man in front of him with a smile.

"So that means it has something to do with you?"

"No, this, no......... I, I don't know ........."

"Really?"

As he spoke, Fang Zheng glanced at Ace, and Ace immediately flipped her right hand, and the sharp blade that was close to her neck shook slightly, leaving a bloody mark on the man's neck.

"Huh———!!"

Realizing that his life was really in danger, the man was suddenly stunned.

"This, this, I ........."

"Tell me, what's her relationship with you?"

"She, she's ..............."

Looking at the woman who fell to the ground, the man hesitated for a moment before speaking.

"She's the staff of our store........."

"Employees......... Is it? ”

Fang Zheng glanced at the woman covered in bruises.

"I won't ask her why she became like this, all in all, we took this woman away, you have no opinion."

"Wait, wait, you can't do that!"

Hearing this, the man immediately shouted.

"She is legally our property, and if you take her away, it will be tantamount to kidnapping!"

"Oh."

Fang Zheng just let out a faint "oh".

"So you're her master?"

"No, that's right!"

"That means ........."

As he spoke, Fang Zheng stretched out his hand, summoned the pitch-black greatsword, and swung it suddenly.

"As long as I kill you, then she will have no master, right?"

"Hiss ..............."

Seeing this, the man gasped.

"Still, I'm very respectful of my wishes."

As he spoke, Fang Zheng walked up to the woman and squatted down and looked at her. At this moment, the woman's eyes were blank and blank, and it seemed that she was not far from death.

"So, it's up to you to choose next, do you want to leave with us, or stay here?"

"Knight?"

Hearing this, the goddess officer immediately screamed, and Fang Zheng waved her hand, signaling her not to speak.

"Come on, I gave the choice, and now it's time for you to make your choice."

“…………………”

In the face of Fang Zheng's inquiry, the woman stared at him blankly, and after a moment, she opened her lips as if she had exhausted all her strength.

"Save ......... Save......... I ........."

"Very well, it looks like you made your choice."

Hearing the woman's answer, Fang Zheng nodded, then stood up again and looked at the man next to him.

"You heard that too, this woman, we took it."

As he spoke, Fang Zheng stretched out his hand, picked up the woman, and turned around to leave. However, at this moment, the man hurriedly stopped them.

"Wait, wait!"

"What else?"

"Really, I beg you not to do that! It would be a hassle to take her away! ”

"Trouble?"

"yes, you should know......... Eight fingers. ”

At this, the man lowered his voice.

"The one who rules the country in the shadows......... So, if you do......... It's going to be a real hassle! Please, you guys just don't see anything, okay? You are adventurers, if you provoke Eight Fingers, then there is no place for you in this country! ”

"So what?"

However, to the man's surprise, the square in front of him did not have any reaction to the name Eight Fingers. In fact, for Founder, it doesn't matter what eight fingers, nine fingers, and ten fingers are. Not to mention what is secretly ruling this country, it is what is really ruling this country, in the eyes of Fang Zheng, it is not worth mentioning like ants.

"Let's go, let's go back first."

As he spoke, Fang Zheng turned around and led the woman away, leaving the man sitting in place, looking at their backs, but speechless at all.

After returning to the hotel, the girls immediately took the woman to their room, and looking at the woman in front of them, even Megumi in the second middle school, couldn't help but be moved.

"This is also ......... It's too much! ”

"It's not just about getting beaten........."

After carefully examining the woman, the goddess turned even more blue.

"She also suffers from multiple medical conditions and ......... There are even prolonged drug poisoning reactions......... Who the hell is this and why is it doing this........."

"Can it be cured?"

"I'm sorry, Knight."

In the face of Fangzheng's inquiry, the goddess lowered her head in frustration.

"I am limited in my ability........."

As she spoke, the goddess official also clasped her hands. At first, she simply thought that the woman was just beaten and injured, but now after careful examination......... The goddess didn't know what to do at all.

"Then I'll leave it to me."

Fang Zheng snapped his fingers as he spoke.

Soon, a holy light fell from the sky and quickly covered the woman's body, and then I saw that the scars on the woman's body were rapidly healing at a speed visible to the naked eye, and the originally pale cheeks gradually became bloody.

"Knight-sama, you're amazing........."

Seeing this scene, the goddess officer suddenly sighed, and Ace also opened her eyes in surprise and stared curiously.

"Alright, so her body should be back to the way it was before it became like this......... Let her sleep well, you can accompany her. ”

"Yes, Knight."

"Ace."

After giving instructions to the goddess officer, Fang Zheng turned to Ace on the other side.

"Today, you are responsible for keeping vigil, pay attention to the surroundings, and if you don't know what kind of seven-fingered thing, you will send someone to monitor it and clean it up."

"Okay."

Hearing Fangzheng's order, Ace, who was resting her weapon, nodded and replied softly.

"And what about you, Lord Knight?"

"I'll go out."

As he spoke, Fang Zheng reached out and grabbed Megumi by the collar.

"Megumii, you haven't let go of the burst magic today, come with me, let you blow up enough!"
