317 Maid’s Escape
Ye did not choose to fight. Although she could stop time, her ability could not affect the state of things. What was before time stopped would be what it would be after time stopped. In other words, she could not attack the enemy who was stopped, so in You can also see in the game that every time she launches an attack, Shizuo will be forcibly released the moment before she touches the target.
For enemies of similar rank, this kind of ability is almost unsolvable, but if you face a higher-level opponent, this gap is a flaw. Take Kaguya for example, he is also a time-based ability user. In addition to being unable to stop time, Kaguya can almost perfectly restrain Ye.
And Ye knows very well that the ability to time is not invincible even in this world. Gu Aotian has the ability to break the time stop.
Therefore, the moment the time stopped, Ye immediately chose to escape and rushed out of the hall at almost the fastest speed.
Click... click!
As soon as Ye Qian ran away, the space in the hall suddenly heard the sound of shattering. The originally frozen time was torn apart by an extremely tyrannical force. Looking at the empty hall, Gu Aotian stood in front of the throne. The "face" is very ugly.
Of course, Gu Aotian is just a skeleton, and his face cannot be seen at all, but from the terrifying aura he emits, the guardians all know that the Supreme Being is furious!
thump!
Demon Demiurge immediately knelt on the ground and said respectfully: "Lord Ainz, please calm down. The intruders broke in this time because our guardians did something wrong. We never expected that someone could invade the underground nine." But don’t worry, we will definitely capture the intruder and hand it over to Lord Ainz.”
Later, the other guardians also knelt down, looking frightened.
"Well..." The King of the Undead maintained his absolute majesty, and the overflowing magic power seemed to dominate this space, and said in a deep voice, "Then, Demiurge, I will leave this matter to you guardians. The intruders must not be allowed to escape the Great Tomb of Nazarick.”
"Don't worry, Ainz-sama, there is no problem with the defense of the Great Tomb of Nazarick, and it will not be a matter of time for the other party to escape."
"Well, then you go ahead, but the intruders are not weak, so you should also pay attention to your own safety."
Sensing the concern revealed in Gu Aotian's words, the guardians looked moved and responded immediately, then got up and quickly chased Ye.
As the guardians left, Gu Aotian returned to the throne, a bone hand without any flesh and blood pressing his face, which was completely opposite to his terrifying appearance. At this moment, he was extremely panicked inside.
[Damn, why are there intruders? And invaded the ninth floor underground without any sound? 】
Gu Aotian thought of the previous games. As an alien guild, they were hostile to countless players. Many guilds united to attack the Great Tomb of Nazarick many times. There were many powerful players among them, but no player could conquer this place. On the throne, at this moment, a human maid passed through the layers of guards in the big tomb and quietly invaded to the ninth floor. Before that, no guardian had discovered such a thing...
【This world is so scary! 】
Gu Aotian couldn't help but shudder. Since the other party was able to sneak into the ninth floor silently, that means it should be possible to take off their heads while they were resting, right?
And also has the ability to stop time.
Although he has no shortage of time-stopping abilities, the time-based ability has always been one of the most troublesome forces and must be guarded against. Fortunately, it was discovered in time this time, otherwise the consequences would be disastrous.
【It’s really ridiculous...】
Gu Aotian thought of the experience of coming to this world again.
Although the entire guild traveled through time together, at the beginning, the other guardians were just ordinary NPCs and could not communicate normally. Until a few days ago, something seemed to have changed in this world, and all the guardians had changed. They have become real characters, with their own thoughts and action patterns... although this action pattern is based on the character set when the player created the guardian.
At that moment, he was very happy because he was finally no longer alone, and finally no longer had to guard this big tomb alone and worry about all kinds of things.
He even became bolder and even thought of sending a guardian to scout the giant tower in the sky.
Ahhhh, it’s ridiculous to think about it now!
The big tomb is their foundation, but a human being is thrown into an uninhabited land. He can't even protect his own home, and he even wants to invade other people's territory. It's ridiculous.
Thinking of this, Gu Aotian was frightened and blamed himself.
Oh!
In an instant, a green light shone from above his head.
Gu Aotian activated the skill of forced calmness and finally calmed down his emotions temporarily, murmuring: "The matter of catching the intruders is temporarily left to the guardians. Although one-on-one may be dangerous, if we all go together, There shouldn’t be any problem, right? No, we still shouldn’t be too complacent... Well, just in case, let’s take out the world-class items first.”
After saying that, Gu Aotian immediately went to the guild's most important treasure house.
If we look at it from Tang Hao's point of view, with Ye's strength, he is not sure of winning one-on-one with any guardian. Now he is facing so many guardians. It is basically a maid's escape story, and Gu Ao Tianque still needs to prepare plug-in equipment such as world-class props, which is simply making a mountain out of a molehill.
But for Gu Aotian, this is a necessary preparation, because fighting with the air is his daily routine.
Let’s not mention Gu Aotian’s actions. Let’s just talk about Ye’s side. After escaping from the hall, she quickly returned along the same path and tried to meet up with Tang Hao. However, before she ran very far, several people suddenly appeared behind her. A powerful breath.
So fast!
Ye Dun was shocked. The enemy's reaction was much faster than she imagined, and she shouldn't be so slow at the speed of pursuit. In other words... was it teleportation?
The large tomb is the enemy's base, so it is natural that various teleportation arrays are deployed.
"Ahhhh, damn ants, how dare you invade the nest that Lord Ainz and I love, and cause trouble to Lord Ainz. You really deserve death...go to hell!"
Among the chasing guardians, Albedo was the fastest. It would be better to say that she was completely overcome by anger and reason. She was originally a peerless beauty as long as she kept her mouth shut, but now she was grinning widely. His hair was flying, completely transforming into a monster.
At the moment of the attack, her whole body was covered in pitch-black armor, like a knight of the Yangtze River. The giant ax in her right hand released green light and threw it fiercely at Ye.
Although it was just a simple throwing attack, both the power and speed had reached the extreme. For Ye, she could not resist such an attack and started the world again.
The world of night!
Same ability, different usage.
Considering that the previous world was destroyed almost instantly, this time Ye strengthened the effect of the world, but after the power was strengthened, time was limited, and Ye's world could only last five seconds.
Of course, this was enough time for her to escape.
When time resumed, the guardians had completely lost sight of the night.
"Ahhh... this damn Bichi!!!" Albedo's voice was so angry that she couldn't suppress it, and her entire body was trembling, releasing rich black magic power.
"Albedo, calm down." Demiurge said immediately.
"Huh?" Albedo immediately glared at him, "You told me to calm down? How can you tell me to calm down at this time? Didn't you see that the bitch had invaded Lord Ainz? Defiled The Supreme Being must give her the most painful way to die!"
"Of course I know, that's why I need you to calm down."
Ignoring Albedo's anger, Demiurge adjusted his round glasses and said to the Guardians: "First of all, we must understand the purpose of this mission and not be carried away by anger. Secondly, we must understand the purpose of this mission. , the opponent has the ability of the time system and can act at a time we don’t know, so blind pursuit will be difficult to achieve.”
"What should we do? Do we need to give up the pursuit?" a guardian asked.
"Of course not. We have already made a guarantee in front of Lord Ainz and there is no reason to give up. But before that, let me ask you first, what is the purpose of the invaders?"
"Hmm... It should be an investigation, right? It seems like she has no intention of confronting us at all."
"At most, that was her purpose of invading the Great Tomb. But now that she has been exposed, since she has chosen to escape, it means that she cannot fight against us in terms of combat power, so...she has only one purpose, to escape from the Great Tomb."
Demiurge smiled slightly, "Now that we know her purpose, our actions are very simple. Unlike us who can use the teleportation array of the Great Tomb, she must break through layer by layer before she can leave. Then there is no need for us to chase after her, as long as we stay on the path she must pass. And if she wants to move forward, she must defeat our guardian head-on, even if she is strong enough to fight against our guardian. After this battle, she will definitely be exhausted, and it will be easy to capture her again."
"I see, he is indeed Demiurge, the strategist and commander among the Guardians."
"But in this case, she can't even break through the eighth floor. After all, there are [those] on the eighth floor."
"No, we give up on the eighth floor." Demiurge adjusted his glasses. "If [those] move, they will hurt the enemy a thousand times and damage themselves eight hundred. Lord Ainz has also ordered that unless the Lord Nazarick The tomb has been destroyed, otherwise [those] on the eighth floor will never be used, so this matter only relies on the few guardians we have present."
"That's true." The guardians nodded immediately.
"So..." Finally, Demiurge said with a smile, "I am the guardian of the seventh floor, and I will guard this first level. As for Albedo, in order to prevent intruders, she may also kill them. , you are responsible for maintaining Lord Ainz as the strongest shield. As long as you are here, no one can threaten Lord Ainz."
