Snow and frost ramp in the large forest,

The once noisy forest has quieted down.

On a seemingly gentle snowy field, suddenly the snow on the ground kept surging.

Immediately after, a figure staggered out from under the snow.

"Phew... Bah! ”

The young figure with short black hair vomited as soon as he got out of the ground.

After spitting out the snow slag in his mouth, Li Ang hurriedly looked behind him.

It's just that the flame goblin that was screaming wildly has disappeared without a trace, and along with the injured figure of his friend Ford.

The forest seems to have regained its former tranquility.

It's just that in Leon's opinion, under this tranquility, what is hidden is the coldest danger and murderous opportunity!

Looking at the empty forest, and the only mission bounty materials and ink pens left beside him.

Li Ang violently slammed the empty test tube with the thickness of his thumb into the trunk of a tree on the side.

"Bang!"

The test tube exploded.

Leon picked up the information on the mission bounty list, turned around and walked out.

It's just different from the spirit when he came.

On the face of the departing Leon,

It is full of pain, sorrow, and anger and hatred hidden in the bottom of my heart!

......

dissolving forests,

Located in the eastern part of the Holy City of the Enchanted Ridge, from the snowy snowy slope to the south,

After traversing several vast forests and majestic mountains, it is time to enter the confines of the Dissolving Forest.

'Dissolving Forest'

Some clues can be seen from the name.

This vast and boundless forest of forests,

It is under the cold air of the northwestern continent and at the same time just under the warm monsoon of the southeastern plate of the Altria continent.

So, in this big forest.

The forest at night is forever shrouded in winter, because the cold air from the northwest continent can turn this big forest into a big ice and snow world overnight.

During the day, warm monsoon winds from the eastern continental plate melt the snow and ice in the forest.

This cold and hot, day and night, the weather does not turn and break alternately.

Let this forest fall into endless melting and condensation.

Therefore, in this big forest, adventurers will always see melting ice and snow, and never melt away the ice and snow!

At this time, in the depths of the dissolving forest.

In front of a large, abandoned ruin, a large army of monsters is gathering.

The composition of these monster troops is mainly composed of flame goblins, including female flame goblins, and young goblins, and the number is about fifty or sixty.

There were less than twenty of them, tall green-skinned orc warriors with stone axes, stone hammers, and stout thorny wooden sticks.

There are also more than a dozen half-meter-sized vampire bats among them.

A total of more than a hundred monster troops!

And behind this monster team, there stood a huge and hideous blue beast with a height of five or six meters.

Beside the giant beast, a small figure, wearing a pitch-black robe that could even cover his head, was standing quietly beside the giant beast.

The monster army in front of him is the monsters that Anz brought from the snow and frost slope.

And this underground ruin in front of him is exactly what Ainz likes, and it is also the place where he intends to live in this dissolved forest.

Ainz sent the little monsters in advance to inquire that this ruin should have been abandoned a long time ago.

The underground space inside was very large, even larger than the underground hall he had used to be on the Snow Frost Ramp.

Moreover, it is very far from the town of man.

As long as Ainz doesn't die wandering around, this is indeed a good place to nest.

It is also in line with Ainz's idea of getting up and developing for a period of time.

It's just that on the entire continent of Altria, more than a quarter of the land except the sea is the end of all life;

In addition, more than two-quarters of the place is occupied by various monsters from the entire continent.

There are orcs, goblins, goblins, dark elves, minotaurs, goblins, skeleton warriors, undead, gargoyles, ghouls, ogres, scorpions, banshees, giants, hellhounds, and so many more!

And only a quarter of the habitable places are inhabited by intelligent races such as humans, elves, half-elves, and dwarves.

Overall, the monsters are far outnumbered by humanoid sapient life combined, taking up most of Altria.

So, on the basis of having such a large number of monsters.

In slightly better places, there will always be monsters occupying them.

This is the ruin in front of him, and after the little monsters inquired about it, Anz already knew that the ruins were occupied by a group of giant spiders that were basically more than a meter in size.

And at the head of the pack is a giant spider queen who is three meters in size and named Lalan!

"As long as the lord monster is not a high-level spellcaster, I will have no fear!"

Ainz looked in the direction of the ruins in the distance, and quietly pondered the relevant information from the game in his previous life.

Also in the Dissolving Forest, there is also a giant spider queen named Lalan.

If he guessed correctly, it was likely that the predecessor of this ruin was the 'Peorista Institute of Magic'.

A research institute that was contaminated due to the leakage of failed magical experiments, a research institute that had been abandoned by the Wizards' Association a long time ago.

Although in Ainz's memory, many of the plots and details of the game 'Dragon Nest' have long been blurred.

But some of the more impressive things can still be vaguely remembered.

It's like the original version of Dragon's Nest, in this abyssal dungeon of the 'Peorista Institute of Magic'.

At that time, he was the highest-level, twenty-four pure milk sacrifice of Anz.

In order to get the single-brush achievement, it took nearly four hours in this dungeon to defeat the giant spider queen Lalan.

Cleared this abyssal dungeon, which was known as the most difficult at the time.

The event was so memorable to Ainz that he can still remember it vividly.

It's just that time passes, and fate is mysterious and unpredictable.

Unexpectedly, when I saw this 'Peorista Institute of Magic and Magic' again, it turned out to be when I came to the world of Dragon Nest in my real body.

Just when Ainz had some emotion in his mind about memories from a long time ago.

At the entrance of the ruins, there was a sudden rustling sound!

That's the most common sound spiders make!

The spiders from the ruins of the Peorista Institute of Magic have come out!

Ainz looked calm, and once again focused his attention on the entrance to the ruins.

Soon, he saw giant spiders crawling out of the entrance of the underground ruins, one after another.
