Chapter 256: A Mission Beyond the Steel-Grade! [5000 Words Chapter]
In the early morning, the city of Yerantir had just woken up from its slumber.
The breeze was cool and the sun was shining.
Inside the Adventurer's Guild Quest Hall.
A large number of adventurers come and go, and another busy day begins.
At this time, the second floor of the mission hall.
In a conference room, four adventurers sat or lay on the conference table in front of them.
There was a tower chatting without a ride.
"Hasn't the captain arrived yet?"
A man with a small stature and thin cheeks asked without raising his head as he lay on the conference table.
It's just that there seems to be some tiredness in the voice.
"Isn't it normal for the captain to be late?"
A handsome young man sitting next to the emaciated man was sitting upright on a bench at this time.
Playing with a third-order Rubik's cube in his hand, he replied casually.
"Eh, I would have gotten up late if I had known!"
The thin-cheeked man raised his head and said with a weak expression.
"Stilwell, what time was your kid late last night?"
"It's not honest yet!"
At this time, a slightly chubby man sitting on a bench opposite the thin man suddenly squeezed his eyebrows and said.
"It's nothing, but two new countrymen from my underground tavern let me try it."
"I can't say no either, isn't it!"
The emaciated man obviously knew what the chubby man wanted to say, shrugged his shoulders, and said with a very low expression.
"The country girl who just came, that's such a rarity!"
"Is there any new one, let me be refreshed tonight!"
As soon as the chubby man heard the three words of the country girl, his blue eyes seemed to be about to burst out of green light, and he hurriedly asked with great interest.
"No, just those two!"
"Of course, if you kid don't mind, you just have to wait a week and you won't be able to."
The emaciated man laughed weirdly.
"Horse, in a week's time, you are tired of playing with everything, Lao Tzu is rare for those broken shoes!"
When the chubby man heard this, he burst into a foul mouth, and his interest in his heart suddenly decreased.
As soon as the words fell.
'Click! ’
The conference room door was pushed open.
A tall, blonde man strode in.
In his hand, he is holding a bounty mission agreement sheet, which is clearly stamped with the mark of a 'black rose'!
"Alright, the mission is done, ready to go!"
After the blonde man finished speaking, he turned and walked outside.
The four people in the conference room didn't ask the captain what his task was, and walked out behind the blonde man.
Soon, the team of five people walked out of the Adventurer's Guild and summoned the carriage to leave quickly.
At this time, a man sitting in the adventurer's quest hall,
The figure, whose whole body was shrouded in a wide black robe, also stood up and walked straight out.
It didn't take long for
One after the other, the two wagons left the city of Yerantil and headed for the wilderness.
Inside the spacious carriage of the carriage ahead.
A slightly chubby man in thick armor quickly poked his head out of the window.
With a gloomy face, he said:
"Boss, the carriage behind you seems to be coming at us!"
"It's okay, I'm talking about it later!"
The blonde man said indifferently, and then continued:
"Our mission this time is to find all traces related to vampires!"
"Of course, we have to pay attention to everything that is strange..."
"Listen, this mission sounds simple, though."
"However, this has always been the case that only high-level Mithril-level adventurers were allowed to participate in special missions."
"Because there are not enough Mithril-level adults, it can be our turn."
"But the difficulty of the task will not be lower."
"So, you have to cheer me up!"
......
The Great Underground Tomb of Nasalik.
Inside the empty and majestic main hall.
Bone Aotian sat under the luxurious throne,
Listen quietly to the latest news from the Guardian Steward Jarbede.
"Our people have searched all the neighborhoods where they found Shatia's traces, but they have not been able to find any other traces of Shatiya."
"Nabelar has reported from within the city of Yelantil that no trace of Shatia has been found."
"So many days have passed, and all the evidence shows that Shatiya has completely rebelled!"
"And, in the last few days."
"In the area around our Great Tomb, human adventurers began to appear frequently."
"I suspect it has something to do with Shatia's betrayal!"
"So, Lord Ainz!"
"Give the order!"
"We must make the betrayers pay!"
Albede snapped excitedly.
To say that before, Albede also deliberately targeted Shatiya because Shatiya was a rival in love.
But now, in his bones, Albede is completely disgusted with Shatia as a traitor.
"What do you mean?"
Listen to the anger of Albede.
Bone Aotian looked at the two siblings below him, Kosets, Dimiugos, and Yaulamare, with deep eyes, and these guardians asked in a deep voice.
"Betrayer, unforgivable!"
The high-level demon Dimiugos said respectfully.
"Betraying the Great Tomb, betraying the Supreme Supreme, Shatia must die to apologize!"
Cosetus, whose whole body was shrouded in ice crystal beetles, erupted two scorching breaths from his face, and spoke with an urn sound.
"We... Of course, we are at the behest of Master Ainz! ”
Holding a staff and short blonde hair, Mare said timidly.
"Alright then!"
"I see what you mean."
Gu Aotian sighed lightly, and then put away his feelings of loss,
He stood up abruptly and commanded in a cold voice:
"Jarbede obeys!"
"From now on, you will be the leader of the rebellious crusade team of the Great Underground Tomb of Nassalik."
"Hunt down the betrayer Shatia Bradflen, live or die!"
"But, at the first time I found Shatia."
"I must be informed, and I will impose the final sanctions on Shatia!"
"Got it?"
At this moment, in the deep and coercive voice of the bone arrogant,
Huge spiritual power enveloped the entire hall like a sea.
"Yes, Lord Ainz!"
Several Guardians replied.
"Also, let's go down and continue to clean up all the adventurer humans who appear near us."
"We also need enough humans to experiment and study!"
Speaking of this, Gu Aotian's face was gloomy and his tone was cold.
"Yes, Lord Ainz!"
......
On the outskirts of the city of Jerantir,
Time passed slowly, and the sun gradually climbed overhead.
The sun is starting to get hot.
"Stop!"
With a soft shout, the wide carriage stopped on the side of the large tree-lined road.
Five men of different shapes, but with a strong breath, walked down.
"Boss, the carriage is still following!"
"Do you want us to cut him off?"
The chubby man looked at a rickety carriage a little farther behind him, and said in a dark voice.
"No!"
"Now almost all of the bounty missions in this area have been placed by the Adventurers' Guild."
"The one who dares to go here to carry out a mission now may be a team similar to us!"
"There's no need to offend, let's go in first!"
"I'll talk about it when I have a chance!"
The tall blonde man squinted slightly at the carriage that was slowly moving forward, and said in a deep voice.
"It's still the boss who thinks far-reaching!"
The chubby man hurriedly laughed.
"Sycophants!"
"Stilwell, who are you talking about, I have to say it again!"
"Sycophants!"
"You..."
"Alright, it's time to go in!"
The blonde man interrupted,
Immediately, the entire Black Rose team quickly burrowed into the lush forest on the side of the main road and disappeared.
Under the blazing sun,
The only remaining rickety carriage on the avenue also quickly stopped.
"Alright, this is it!"
"Get out of the car!"
Immediately after, a figure in a wide black robe stepped out of the carriage.
Then he quickly burrowed into the forest on the side.
"It's the third day since I boasted at my master."
"Black Rose, a group of bastards, has only come out until now, and finally Yerantir!"
"If it weren't for the fear of revealing your identity!"
"As early as Yelantil, he himself could have killed all these guys."
"Where do you have to wait so long!"
Shuttling through the shady expanse of the forest, Clementine's gloomy face was full of violence.
At this time, hidden in the bushes,
Clementine, with a gloomy face, suddenly made a move.
'Bang! ’
The dagger flashed with cold light,
The head of a colorful poisonous snake was instantly pierced into the trunk of the towering tree beside him by a short sword.
Blood flows!
"These guys are pretty fast!"
Clementine pulled out his dagger and stretched out his tongue to lick the blood on the dagger,
His eyes squinted slightly, constantly looking at the deep jungle in the distance.
......
Around the village of Nital,
A huge corner of a rolling hill covered with thorns and weeds.
A huge underground cavern** in the darkest darkness.
Suddenly, there was a sound of messy footsteps, and eager gasps.
Soon, a middle-aged man wearing heavy armor and holding a large sword appeared.
If Anz was there at this time, he would definitely be able to recognize the middle-aged man in front of him,
It's the adventurer who was with him in the Adventurers' Guild a few days ago, see the meeting.
It's just that at this time,
The middle-aged man in front of him had a pale face, blood was spilling from the corner of his mouth, and he was obviously seriously injured.
The armor on his body is badly damaged, and it is faintly about to crack,
The left arm was even more scorched and weak, and it fell straight down.
The whole person is extremely embarrassed!
The middle-aged man looked panicked and fled into the dark underground cavern.
But behind the middle-aged man, in the dim cave,
A demon-like figure was following behind, unhurriedly chasing.
'Bang! ’
When the middle-aged man stepped on the uneven underground cave again and slammed to the ground.
The back figure following the middle-aged man finally revealed his true face.
Tall and tall, with long black hair, his face is beautiful and delicate but extremely cold.
Dressed in a black and white majestic maid outfit, holding a long silver staff!
It was Nabelal Gamma, the battle maid from the Great Underground Tomb of Nasalik, who was also from the command of Bone Aotian and who had been with Bone Aotian in the city of Yerantil before.
The middle-aged man looked at this strange maid who easily crushed and killed the entire Mithril-level adventurer mercenary team he led.
I was really panicked to the extreme!
It's just that one of his arms is now useless, and his body is also seriously injured, so there is no possibility of escaping for his life.
No amount of fear can help.
However, high-level adventurers who can advance to the Mithril level, regardless of their character and morality.
I feel very tough in terms of heart.
At this time, he faced the strange maid who was condescending and held up the silver staff high.
"No matter where you monsters come from, the adventurers of Yelantil will avenge me!"
The middle-aged man calmly let out cruel words, and crushed the small magic item hidden in his hand with one hand.
'Wow! ’
Blood erupted, a glimmer of green light flickered, and magical items turned into shards.
The middle-aged warrior also fell.
At the same time, in the city of Yerantir.
In a small, elegant castle.
A beautiful middle-aged woman with a rather purple color is sitting by an ice bucket and soaking up the heat.
Suddenly, a delicate ink-colored flat smooth stone hanging in front of his white chest suddenly became hot.
The beautiful woman was shocked and ripped off the inky stone.
But I saw a bloody picture flashing above.
Suddenly, the whole person was paralyzed in despair.
But it didn't take long.
The beautiful woman who was paralyzed on the ground stood up with difficulty, and called the housekeeper with a pale face.
Then the two of them rode out quickly in the carriage in the castle.
An hour later.
Ainz was staying at his residence and received an urgent invitation from the head of the Adventurers' Guild, Prutun Einzak.
Soon, when I came to the Adventurer's Guild Senior Conference Room.
Ainz saw the clear picture in the hand of the head of the Pruden Einzak guild leader.
Although it was only a fleeting moment, it was full of blood.
Because that's the death of one of the few Mithril-level adventurous mercenary squads in the entire city of Yerantil!
President Pruden Einzak and the other high-ranking adventurers who were present failed to recognize the maid in the picture, dressed in a majestic and strange maid costume.
But Ainz quickly recognized the killer.
It was Nabelal, who was one of the battle maids of the Great Underground Tomb of Nasalik.
......
"Even Richardson, the strongest captain in the squad, himself died."
"I'm afraid the other members are even more auspicious!"
In the conference room, Prudun Einzak said in a deep voice with a frown.
"The weird maid who killed Richardson looks extremely powerful."
"It's a big deal to be on the outskirts of Yerantil right now, along with the vampire monster whose whereabouts are unknown!"
"What has happened to us on the outskirts of Yelantil recently, and how did such a powerful existence appear in the mountains one after another."
Across from Ainz, a tall, thin chanter of magic suddenly spoke.
"Yes, even the mighty Slian Sect is now involved."
"I think we should either issue a reward summoning order to the adventurers of other countries, otherwise we will rely on these people who sit on us again, I'm afraid we won't be able to do anything!"
Another Mithril-level magic chanter also answered.
"Not yet, the Slian Sect has an appointment with us, although the other party's elite has not yet arrived."
"But we can't afford to offend the Slen Sect!"
"The Summoning Order is just a last resort!"
"Before that, you must think of other ways to deal with that weird maid."
"Otherwise, when the other party kills in the city of Yelantil, it will really be over."
Pruden Einzak said solemnly.
"President, didn't you say that the elite of the Slian Sect is coming soon?"
"How about we ask that Priest Andrew for help?"
Someone else asked.
"Isn't that the equivalent of a bounty summoning order?"
"And, who knows when they'll actually come over."
"I'm afraid that when the vampire and that strange maid enter Yerantir, the other party may not arrive!"
Another adventurer answered, still the kind that didn't have much interest in the Slian Sect.
"This doesn't work, that doesn't work, so what do you say..."
"I just have to find a way..."
The last two adventurers to speak out seemed to be on the same page, arguing constantly.
"Alright, stop arguing!"
Prudon Einzak cried out as he rubbed his stunned head.
With this drink, the entire conference room immediately fell silent. ”
At this moment,
A startled voice suddenly rang out.
"Maybe I can deal with the weird maid who killed Richardson!"
Ainz spoke.
The eyes of everyone in the conference room fell on Ainz for a moment.
The president of the Pruden Einzak Adventurers' Guild stared at Ainz who spoke up:
"Ainz, are you kid sure you're not kidding?"
"No kidding, of course!"
"But if I can deal with that weird maid!"
"President, you have to give me a steel-grade nameplate badge."
"Because I don't feel like I'm going up slowly!"
Speaking of which,
Ainz suddenly burst out with a powerful aura equivalent to the hero level.
At this moment, in the face of such a close burst, a hero-level aura erupted.
In an instant, all the adventurers present in the conference room were shocked, and their faces turned pale!
Although the breath on Ainz was only fleeting,
But it still shocked the highest-level adventurers in Yelantil City!
Because the aura on Ainz was completely comparable to any hero-level powerful existence they had ever seen.
There was a hero-level powerhouse hiding next to them and the others, how could this not shock them.
In particular, the head of the Adventurers' Guild, Prudon Einzak.
At this time, he looked at Anz deeply, as if he wanted to see through Anz.
After a long while, he said in a deep voice:
"Okay, I promise you!"
"As long as Ainz can get rid of that weird maid, I'll be able to claim a steel-level nameplate medal for you!"
"But I see that your strength is even equivalent to some hero-level powerhouses I've seen, why are you..."
As soon as Pruden Einzak asked, he was immediately interrupted by Ainz.
"I naturally have my plans!"
"Well, if the president agrees, then I'll take over this task?"
Anz said calmly.
If you don't show some strength, you will definitely not be trusted by Pruden Einzak.
The opportunity came just in time, and Anz naturally didn't miss it!
Look at the unfathomable strength of Ainz in front of him again.
Pruden Einzak felt a stir in his heart.
As long as the other party is not an enemy of Yelantil, what if the other party is a hero-level powerhouse!
Anyway, things in the suburbs will definitely not be able to hide after a long time.
At this time, the city of Yelantil needs heroic powerhouses to inspire people!
Thinking of this instantly, Pruden Einzak slowly spoke:
"Okay, I agree!"
