Chapter 254: The Butterfly Effect! 【2-in-1】
"Lord Andrew!"
Seeing a young man dressed in a priest's robe appear at the door of the conference room,
The president of the Pruden Einzak guild immediately stood up and bowed slightly.
Although Prudon Einzak, as the president of the Adventurers' Guild of Yelantil City, he still has the strength of the oylandron level, and his status is not low.
But in the face of this high-ranking priest from the most powerful country, the Slian Cult,
Andrew, whose strength has already reached the hero-level realm, is concerned.
Pruden Einzak's status is significantly lower.
However, the two belong to different backgrounds and usually have little to do with each other.
Pruden Einzak expressed his respect for Andrew, and it was normal to simply salute.
Pruden Einzak saluted, and the other adventurers who were sitting there couldn't sit still.
Whether you know the true identity of this Andrew or not, but that robes of the priest of the Slian Sect are not something that ordinary people can wear.
So they also stood up and saluted slightly.
Even Ainz couldn't help it.
In order not to stand out too much, Ainz stood up anyway.
But that's about it.
Naturally, he didn't nod and salute like the other adventurers, but just smiled slightly.
But it was this smile that happened to be seen by the Andrews priest in front of him.
Andrew, a senior priest with a resolute and handsome face, also smiled at Ainz and sat down.
"Alright, now that everyone is here."
"Considering that some of you here may not know this person, let me briefly introduce him."
"This is a high-ranking priest from the Slen Sect's royal court, Lord Andrew!"
The words of the head of the Adventurers' Guild Prudon Einzak fell.
The high-level adventurers present who were at least at the Mithril level immediately muttered in a low voice.
"It's actually a high-ranking priest of the Slian Sect's royal court..."
"I've heard that the strength of a high-level priest can only be achieved in the realm of a hero..."
"What do you mean by heard, it was supposed to be...
"The High Priest is a candidate for the future Archbishop of the Slenn Nation..."
"Okay, His Excellency Andrew came here this time, and it was naturally a mission commission."
"I'll talk to you in person later!"
President Pruden Einzak stretched out his hand to interrupt the others and continued:
"Please come here this time."
"It's because of the recent discovery of a vampire in the forest outside the city of Yerantir!"
"Just last night, two temporary squads of mercenary mountain bandits who crusaded against the mutinous mercenaries, a total of thirteen adventurers, died!"
"The strength of the temporary squad that crusaded against the mutiny is not low..."
"So many dead..."
"How strong are the vampires..."
As soon as he finished speaking, listening to the discussion of the adventurers present, President Pruden Einzak was also a little helpless.
Usually he holds meetings in the Adventurer's Guild, who dares to discuss below.
But there is no way, these adventurers sitting here are not under his command, and at least they are Mithril-level adventurers, and this time they were only temporarily summoned by his identity.
The relationship between the two parties is at best a collaborator.
"Alright, let me finish!"
President Pruden Einzak abruptly accentuated.
The room fell silent.
"Before that, I have something I want to ask Ainz about."
Pruden Einzak turned to look at the calm-faced Ainz and spoke.
"No need to ask, President Einzak, I'll just tell you what I know!"
"I was going to come and report directly, but President Einzak should know that I had just returned to Yelantil."
Anz said directly, anyway, if you can't hide, it's better to say it directly.
You can even try to disguise Shatia's appearance.
"That's right!"
Pruden Einzak nodded.
At this moment, everyone's eyes in the conference room were focused on Ainz.
"I'm a member of one of the eight-man makeshift raid squads that all died yesterday."
"As for all the encounters I had yesterday, I'll start with the village of Danital..."
“......”
"I don't know if any of you here trust your instincts."
"But I've always believed in my own self-realization."
"I've survived until now, and it's all my instincts that saved me."
"So, when I faced that vampire, my realizations told me that I would definitely die!"
"So, I escaped!"
"It's a bit of an exaggeration, but I always think I'm right..."
To avoid further troublesome questioning, Ainz calmly recounted his actions last night.
As soon as the words fell, Ainz expected the sarcasm to follow.
"So, that's why you abandoned your teammates and survived alone..."
"Abandon your weaker teammates to survive, Ainz you kid is so bad..."
"No wonder you can't find a teammate, in the face of such a danger, you want to escape from your teammates temporarily, who dares to hand over your back to him..."
The act of temporarily abandoning his teammates and fleeing is the most despised behavior of the adventurer mercenary team.
Several Mithril-level mercenary team leaders immediately couldn't help it, and began to taunt Anz in a loud voice.
Even President Pruden Einzak, who was sitting at the top, looked at Ainz with a bad look on his face.
At this moment,
A voice suddenly rang out.
"He's right!"
Andrew, a senior priest in a majestic crown hat robe, suddenly spoke.
This opening immediately attracted the attention of everyone in the conference room.
"I said this Ainz is doing the right thing!"
"Don't say it's him the vampire, it's President Einzak's no!"
"Where can a Mithril-level adventurer be able to fight it!"
"It's rare to escape from a vampire like that."
"Do you still want to count on a Mithril-level adventurer to send him to his death?"
Looking at the faint opening of this high-ranking priest from the Slian Sect.
The voices of several Mithril-class captains who taunted Anz immediately went out.
"What do you mean by Lord Andrew?"
At this time, Prudun Einzak asked with a frown.
"That vampire has already fought against the elite troops in my royal court, and his strength is very extraordinary."
"So, please ask President Einzak to investigate it carefully."
"When the troops in my royal court arrive, we will naturally assist in the investigation!"
Andrew said with a calm face.
"I don't need to say much about it, Lord Andrew, we will also start investigating the vampire!"
"That's a matter of more of our adventurers' safety."
Prudun Einzak spoke in a deep voice.
"Of course I do, but we're not going to take advantage of you."
"The corresponding delegated tasks and rewards will be sent down next!"
"But all that has been investigated and everything that has been investigated, President Einzak, must not hide anything from me!"
Andrew continued to speak calmly, but Prudon Einzak's keen sense of smell sensed that it was not simple.
"Is it that serious?"
"Of course, this is the personal attention of the adults above me!"
Andrew's voice was calm.
Pruden Einzak listened to it, but was taken aback.
You don't have to guess who the senior priest is.
That's the archbishop!
The most powerful country, the archbishop of the Slen Sect, is a nobler existence than the king of the ordinary country.
"Therefore, I hope that you will also pay attention to safety while investigating."
"By the way, I don't know if this Anz is interested in chatting with me, I still have a certain understanding of the talent and intuition you mentioned!"
Andrew stood up and continued to speak.
His eyes were on Ainz at the table opposite.
"I'm still pretty confident in my instincts, so thank you Lord Andrew for your kindness!"
Faced with Andrew's invitation, Ainz did not hesitate to refuse directly.
I didn't expect it to avoid attracting the attention of this guy.
Ainz had no choice but to change his previous statement, otherwise he would not know how bad it is to leave his teammates behind in the face of danger.
But I didn't expect Andrew to explain it to himself, and it was still the most powerful kind.
I was obviously noticed by the other party.
Naturally, the crowd at the scene did not believe that it was only Ainz's intuition that could predict the danger.
Rather, it will be thanks to the special abilities that Ainz has mastered, like the genius apothecary Enfirea's ability to use any kind of magic item at will.
The other adventurers present also believed that Ainz had mastered the ability to predict danger.
The special ability to anticipate danger is incredible.
It will only make the adventurers present envious and too late to make good friends, where will they really care about the temporary team that Anz left behind.
If one day we can carry out a mission together, then Ainz is equivalent to a danger avoidance compass.
Such a special ability is really enviable.
That's why Andrew is interested in Ainz and not about vampires.
"Okay!"
Seeing that Anz refused, Andrew didn't take it to heart.
It's just a Mithril-level adventurer, and his special abilities are naturally nothing to him who has already stepped into the hero realm.
It's just that I have some interest temporarily, and I don't care if I am rejected.
But the purpose of my coming here has been explained, and there is no point in staying.
Anz Andrew nodded to the upper-mounted Pruden Einzak.
He strode out of the conference room.
As soon as Senior Priest Andrew left, the atmosphere in the conference room suddenly became even more enthusiastic.
After speculating that Ainz had great talent, no one continued to pursue and taunt Ainz for abandoning his teammates.
Instead, they accosted each other.
President Prudon Einzak also took the opportunity to send out the task of investigating the vampires.
Although I know that the vampire is extraordinary.
But under the temptation of a huge honorarium, except for Anz and the other two adventurers present, they refused the mission.
Several other adventurers accepted the mission.
It's just a matter of probing, and you don't need to kill the vampire.
The high-level adventurers present were naturally not afraid.
It's just that a few adventurers are a little regretful that Ainz has such a strong natural ability and didn't participate.
Naturally, Ainz could only say 'hehe' to this.
"Next, Shatiya rebelled, and the Nasalik underground tomb behind the bone arrogant sky will definitely make a move."
"You guys who just mocked Lao Tzu, I wish you good luck and directly meet Gu Aotian!"
Ainz wasn't that generous.
I was ridiculed by these guys just now, I still remember it vividly, how can it be over so quickly!
When you come out of the Adventurer's Guild,
It was already close to afternoon.
Ainz summoned the carriage and headed for his lodgings.
"This time, because of his own interference, Gu Aotian failed to complete the task of the Great Tomb Fortress last time, and this meeting has nothing to do with Bone Aotian!"
"There is also the Slen Sect, although the members of the Dark Sacred Scripture were lost in the anime plot of the previous life."
"But the old woman Kerry and the true artifact were not lost, although they were angry, they didn't take it lightly."
"Now that I have my own halfway cutoff, the old woman and the country are in demand, and the Silian sect can't help but intervene."
"This should be regarded as a butterfly effect caused by participating in the plot!"
"The plot that follows will definitely evolve, and eventually the original plot will be unrecognizable."
"I don't have the advantage of being a plot prophet, so I'm going to take it easy."
'Whew...'
"Although Lao Tzu has never been a waste since he came to this world!"
With a mutter, Ainz closed his eyes and recuperated.
......
The Great Underground Tomb of Nassalik, in the empty and majestic hall of the main hall.
The atmosphere is serious at this time!
Bone Proud Heaven sits on a luxurious throne.
Below
Standing are several Guardians such as the Guardian Chief, Jarbede, Dimiugos, and Cosettes;
There are also several members of the Pleiades Cluster's Battle Maid Regiment, as well as other higher-level combat professions gathered in the main hall.
"How's the search for Shatia's whereabouts going?"
Gu Aotian leaned on the throne with one hand to support his head, and his slender and white finger bones pressed the center of the eyebrows of the skeleton's face, and spoke.
The tone is low and majestic!
"Not yet, but I've already sent additional people to investigate, and I'm sure we'll have news soon."
Albede replied respectfully.
"What about Dimiugos, did you notice anything unusual near our great tomb?"
"Report to Lord Ainz, not yet!"
"I have continued to consolidate the defenses around the Great Tomb, and I have also laid a lot of traps, as long as there is a foreign invasion, I am sure that I will be able to find it as soon as possible!"
"Marre, Yaula!"
"The first to third floors of the Great Sepulchre in charge of Shatiya are in your charge from now on..."
"Yes, Lord Ainz!"
"Nabelal, did you find anything in the Adventurers' Guild in Yelantil?"
"Not yet, Lord Ainz!"
"The Adventurer's Guild's quest bulletin board doesn't show any news about Shatia."
“......”
At this moment,
A voice suddenly came into Albede's head.
"Lord Ainz, we've found Shatia's traces!"
Albede's face changed, and he immediately spoke up.
"Where!"
Gu Aotian raised his head and asked with a serious face.
"A forest around the village of Nital, not far from our big grave!"
Albede spoke in a deep voice.
