——You will win.
...Why did I boast so much about Haikou at that time? I was really embarrassed!
In the corner, Ainz covered his forehead.
He doesn't know what happened at that time. Maybe it was because Shalltear's rebellion made him angry, or maybe he didn't want to be looked down upon by Xiaolin. At that time, he blurted out that he would win.
A little bit arrogant.
After all, his opponent is the most powerful guardian in the Great Tomb of Nazarick. To be honest, he is really not sure of defeating him.
but--
The arrow is on the string and must be fired!
Not only to stabilize the loyalty of the guardians of the Great Tomb, but also he will never allow his NPCs (children) to be abused by him, so he will definitely win this time!
Be sure to make thorough preparations for this.
"Albedo, follow me."
"As commanded."
Ainz planned to go to the Treasure Hall, no, to be precise, the Weapon Hall deep inside the Treasure Hall, where the artifacts given to him by his escaped companions were placed.
In order for them to return to the game one day, Ainz deliberately kept them without selling a single piece of equipment. He didn't expect that they would come in handy this time.
Cross the golden mountain range used to confuse outsiders and arrive at the door of the Weapon Palace.
No, should I say it's a door?
It was in the shape of a door, but it looked like a bottomless pit of black shadow stuck to the wall.
By the way, what's the password?
This is a door that requires a specific password to be opened. A magic or thief character may be able to forcefully open this door, but Ainz has not learned that kind of magic and does not have that kind of special technology, so he must tell the password. Turn on... Well, I forgot the password.
This is understandable.
Because there are countless institutions like this in Nazarick, I can still remember the places I often go to, but I have never had the opportunity to come to the Treasure Hall before, so it is impossible to remember the password for such a place. I only come here when I pay the Nazarick management fee with the money I earn. I haven’t come here for many years.
After thinking about it for a long time, Ainz still couldn't remember the password and finally gave up. He said a universal password that applies to all institutions.
"——Ainz Ooal Gown's glory will last forever."
The dark gate reacted to this sentence, and a large text appeared like an image on the water.
"Cuiyulu is really a perfectionist."
Ainz sighed.
20% of the small mechanisms in the big tomb were made by him. His extremely sophisticated design used a lot of resources, causing other companions to constantly complain to him.
I really miss the past...
Thinking back on it, Ainz finally unlocked the password that had been sleeping deep in his memory.
"In this way, you take over the glory of the whole world, and all darkness is far away from you... right?"
As if to respond to Ainz's wishes, the black shadow was sucked in by a point. Soon the original black shadow disappeared without a trace, leaving only a fist-sized black sphere floating in the air.
Because the dark shadow that had covered it until now disappeared, you could see inside through the opened hole.
It was a well-managed space, different from other places before. If I wanted to use a metaphor, the most appropriate description would be like a museum exhibition hall. The room with low brightness is very long and extends into the interior.
The height from the floor to the ceiling is about five meters, and the width on the left and right is as long as ten meters. This height is not designed with humans in mind, but designed with their aliens neutralizing Graeme.
The floor is tightly paved with stones that emit black light. It looks like a single huge stone, reflecting the faint light from the ceiling, revealing a quiet and solemn atmosphere.
There are countless weapons neatly arranged on the left and right sides, which looks quite spectacular.
"In."
Without waiting for the people behind him to respond, Ainz walked directly into the weapons warehouse.
What greeted them were broadswords, giant swords, armor-piercing swords, fist swords, double swords, machetes, backhand knives and so on.
Of course, the weapons decorated here are not just swords, but also axes, bows, spears, hammers... Just by rough classification, the number is too numerous to count.
In addition, there are many flashy weapons, and I don’t know if they can be called weapons anymore. For example, some weapons that cannot be sheathed at all and only focus on appearance. No, there are definitely more weapons of this type.
Now is the time to show off your arsenal.
If people from the outside world see these weapons, they will definitely be dazzled and unable to control themselves. It may cause disputes in a country.
Ainz, who already had a general understanding of the world, believed that this would definitely happen once the Great Tomb was exposed.
The group of people looked at these weapons from the sidelines and walked quietly in the weapons warehouse. After walking for a distance of almost a hundred meters, which was probably the distance where thousands of weapons were displayed, they arrived at a rectangular room at the end.
It may be used to receive guests. There are only sofas and tables in the empty room.
Looking to the left and right, you can see some road entrances and exits, which are very similar to the one Ainz and the others entered when they came in. They feel more like ancient tombs.
On the way forward, a figure suddenly appeared.
He has a strange appearance. Although he is a human body, he has a head that looks like a twisted octopus. His pale skin is mixed with some purple skin like a corpse. Six tentacles extend from his mouth to near his thighs, twisting and turning. A pair of chaotic blue-white eyes without pupils looked at a group of people.
"Lord Cuiyulu?! No, that's not right! Who are you! Even if you want to pretend to be the Supreme, I won't be so stupid that I can't recognize my creator!"
Albedo's cry of surprise was immediately rejected by herself, and she immediately stood in front of Ainz and loudly questioned the pretender in front of him.
When the situation was tense and on the verge of breaking out, Ainz said, "That's enough. Pandora's Actor, please return to the original state."
Cuiyulu's body twisted.
After a beat, an alien appeared where the counterfeit Cuiyulu was originally, but it was a different person.
The face is quite flat, with all the raised parts such as the nose smoothed away. There are only three empty holes for the eyes and mouth. There are no eyeballs, teeth or tongue. There are only three black holes that look like black holes painted by a child with a pen. It's as if the pink egg's head is bald, without even a hair on it.
Such a strange character is a double phantom just like Narberal. He is the level 100 NPC set by Ainz himself to manage this treasure hall.
——Pandora Actor.
He is good at disguise, can copy forty-five kinds of appearances, and can also use about 80% of his original abilities.
The cap badge on his head is the guild badge of Ainz Ooal Gown, and the uniform he wears is quite similar to the uniform of the NC Guards. Even his every move is similar.
After making a sound by pressing your ankles hard, you exaggerately place your right hand next to your hat in a salute.
"Welcome to my creator, Lord Momo!"
"...You look very energetic."
"Yes, I am full of energy every day! Speaking of which, why did you come here this time? You even brought the guardian chief with you."
He looked at Albedo.
Albedo, who was standing next to Ainz, felt jealous that Ainz was the creator of Pandora's Actor, and pouted where Ainz couldn't see her.
Ainz, who had something on his mind, said, "Go to the innermost secret vault and get the world's props."
"What did you say! Has the time come to unleash their power?!"
Pandora's Actor pretended to make an exaggerated expression of surprise, and this attitude made Ainz frown his nonexistent eyebrows.
Forget about the costumes, why do the actions have to be so exaggerated?
No, he knew why.
Because the person who created Pandora's Actor was Ainz, which meant that every move he made was a result of Ainz's feeling of being popular and his inner triumph.
It’s really...
In the past, I always thought that people in military uniforms were cool, and since they were actors, their movements should be exaggerated, but after seeing him actually possessing intelligence and making exaggerated actions like this...
"So bad."
Ainz couldn't help but hold his forehead and sigh.
Fortunately, the voice of his inner thoughts that he blurted out was very quiet and no one heard him, otherwise the majesty of his creator would also be damaged.
It’s simply black history!
If there were other members of the Big Tomb here right now, they would definitely laugh until they fall down.
No, you have to get back on your feet.
As an immortal, he didn't have time to feel that kind of mental shock.
"You are right. I plan to take away [Greed and Desire], [Grail of Xuguiea], [Blade of Hundreds of Millions] and [Mountains and Rivers Map]."
"...What to do with the remaining two?"
"Just leave it alone. It is an item that can only be used once. Because it is so powerful, you must carefully consider the timing of using it, or know how to obtain it again before using it."
"Yes, I understand."
Those super-crossbow-level props are powerful enough to be called a trump card, capable of turning decay into magic and even changing the entire world.
In the game, there are a total of 200 world-class props. [Ainz Ooal Gown] is not the strongest game guild, but they also have eleven... Including the ones that were stolen, there are a total of twelve worlds. Level props.
These powerful world-class items are what give Ainz the confidence to fight against Shalltear.
He smiled without changing his expression.
"By the way, I'm going to the mourning temple later. Did anything happen here?"
"No. Because everything here belongs to Lord Momo and others, how could anything happen?" Pandora pointed around with a drill-like tone and movements, and sighed loudly: "But it is still a bit regretful, I thought that Lord Momo People come here to be sent to you."
Ainz began to look at the alien.
He had indeed thought about using it. After all, Pandora's setting was at the top level of Nazarick in terms of wisdom and strategy. Although he would usually use these wisdom and strategies in strange places, it was still difficult at critical moments. Don't sacrifice the other person's wisdom.
Not only that, Pandora Alec's abilities can be applied to a wide range of applications, and sometimes can even replace all guardians.
But, how to use it?
The reason Ainz created him in the first place was not to fight or run an organization, but to preserve the figure of [Ainz Ooal Gown] and leave behind the appearance of a companion.
Forget it, it won’t be used for the time being.
"You are the last ace, I cannot send you to do chores."
"Thank you very much. However, Ainz-sama. Although I know it is disrespectful, if there is a situation where I have to use world-class items, it would be better for me to leave the Treasure Hall and go to other floors."
With an expression that was hesitant to speak, Pandora lowered her head in an exaggerated salute.
The idea is correct.
Pandora is a talent, but it would be foolish to just let her look good but lose a more valuable treasure. He should be treated as an emergency and use him, and he can also transfer the gold coins from the Treasure Hall to the Throne Hall.
But...but!
Ainz's mood suddenly hit rock bottom when he saw Pandora, who slowly put a hand on her chest, strongly recommending him.
The movements and postures of my creations are full of obvious expressions of my cool emotions. If he were a really handsome man, his words and deeds might go well with him, but he was just an egghead, so out of place that he would even make Ainz feel embarrassed when he saw him.
Letting him walk around in the big tomb, isn't it walking black history?
Are you kidding? Did you die on the spot?
Ainz stared at Pandora's Actor quietly for a while, then took out a ring from the space and threw it to the other party.
"This is Ainz Ooal Gown's ring. Its ability is..."
"This is advance preparation."
Ainz raised his hand to stop Pandora who wanted to continue speaking, but Pandora looked regretful after closing her mouth.
"Albedo, let the servants in the Great Tomb of Nazarick know about his existence first. Before that, Pandora's Actor, you can only go back and forth between the Throne Hall and the Treasure Hall."
"As commanded." X2
The two responded loudly.
Pandora pressed her heels together as hard as she could to make a sound, stretched her fingers until they reached her fingertips, and saluted very solemnly, which to say the least was just pretentious. This guy is not bad, and his ability is not bad, but it is a pity...
If Ainz could blush, he would be red right now.
Why was he designed to have this kind of character? My past self actually thought that was cool, no, although I still think military uniforms are kind of cool now...
"Hey, Pandora, come with me."
Ainz grabbed the creation's shoulders and pulled him aside. With his back to Albedo, under his jealous gaze, the two of them whispered.
"I want to ask you something very important. I am your creator and the one you are loyal to, right?"
"It's absolutely true, Lord Ainz, I was created by you. If I were to fight another Supreme Being, I would go all out without hesitation."
"Really...then, whether it's an order from the master or a request...can you please not salute?"
The hollow eyes of creation are fixed on their Creator.
There was deep confusion in his eyes.
"Well... how should I put it? Isn't it weird to salute? Stop saluting. The military uniform... looks very strong and you don't need to change it, but really don't salute anymore."
"Wenn esmenines Gottes Wille."
"Is this German? Don't talk like that either. No, it's okay to say it like this, but please don't say it in front of me, please."
"This, this..."
"I'm really begging you. I never thought I would be forced to calm down for something like this. It's more embarrassing than riding a giant hamster."
"Obey, obey."
Pandora's Actor looked shocked for the first time, and answered a little strangely.
Unconsciously, he got close enough to kiss, and then Ainz moved his face away.
Although I want to have a good talk with the other party about this matter, the situation is urgent now, so let’s stop here.
He has more important things to do.
My son is here
