Chapter 233 Low-level traps

Direct sound transmission between teams is blocked, and with [invisibility], it seems impossible to confirm each other's position and contact.

However, they have their own means of communication and cooperation.

When they arrived at the fence, the aerial flight team sent a signal, then hung down several ropes and hoisted the person in several times.

Compared with the simple methods used by various races in the Central Continent to exert their physical abilities, this method does seem ordinary and boring. On the other hand, it is also very practical. A series of crisp, flawless and hesitant movements are exactly what these people have experienced in many battles.

evidence of.

Ainz did not cooperate reluctantly. He picked up Francesca and clamped it on his waist. He jumped directly over the wall with a big jump. With the magic [silence], he was not worried about the sound of the armor shaking and hitting the ground.

It seems now that there are some messy floor tiles and stone tablets along the way from the wall to the temple, which hinders movement a little at night. If you are an adventurer or ordinary soldier below the silver level, a few more falls here will be enough.

Inevitably, if there are monsters lurking in these shadows, they will pose a fatal threat.

Fortunately, they are nothing to the experts sent this time.

But it took a while, and [silence] and [invisibility] failed before they reached the center.

The bad luck comes right from the beginning.

Arriving at the gate of the central temple, although the thieves from other teams conducted detailed inspections and said that there was no trap, Ainz still strode forward, drew his sword loudly, and stabbed at the crack of the door.

The double-open door was pushed inward with great force, revealing the passage inside. However, the sword seemed to be half swallowed by the void, and a strange-colored liquid flowed out of the cross-section of the sword.

The others immediately became alert and raised their weapons regardless of the sound.

The space seemed to be distorted for a while, but nothing like that happened. Instead, its color perfectly blended with the background of the passage. The four-legged snake-shaped monster that looked very much like a human gradually revealed its true form. Ainz pulled the sword out of its body.

After pulling it out, he fell down with a look of surprise.

Francesca stretched out her hand and gestured forward, and instantly the entire passage became brighter in everyone's eyes, and all kinds of monsters of the same kind that were originally integrated into the dark passage were nowhere to be seen.

"This is!"

"It's the monster Slash! I've heard of monsters that can be highly camouflaged and hidden without using magic!"

"It was discovered from the beginning! There was no trap, but the enemy blocked the door directly."

"Which team is on?"

The reason why it seems that there is still room to discuss who will go is because Slash's knowledge is that although the long tongue with paralyzing saliva is very troublesome in a sneak attack, as long as the true form is revealed, it is not a problem for them.

A difficult monster to deal with.

Along the way, it will be wasteful and increase consumption, and it may also expose information to deeper enemies in advance. Therefore, as long as there is room and before the team separates, it is common sense to use as little manpower and means as possible.

"Then let's go forward." The captain of "Six Swords Warriors" ordered the three people in the team to come forward and fight.

Soon, all the monsters near the door were wiped out.

Now it was no longer considered sneaking in. Someone asked Ainz directly how he discovered this hidden danger even though he was a soldier.

Ainz is an undead, so the living beings that the undead should hate are naturally like lights in his senses. However, he said it was intuition and experience, which is not unreasonable.

It's a bit ambiguous, but no one bothers to ask questions. It's not surprising that there are some hidden abilities outside of the profession in this industry.

The other captains also want to discuss something with Francesca: "Although it is common sense to prepare multiple light sources or a light source with a larger range when exploring a path in the dark, isn't it also a reminder to the enemy that such a large light source is too large? If it consumes too much, it is better to use it.

The props are better.”

For example, using a fluorescent stick or something, you can light it up by shaking it. The human country has invented such a good thing. The torch originally needed to enter the cave does not need to appear here. If there is such a creature among the enemies, you should

There is no possibility of suffocation. Fragile torches are more likely to consume oxygen and expose other flaws.

Francesca refused: "It doesn't matter. This is actually an application of illusion. It's just that the view here has improved."

"This can be considered...an illusion?"

"Could it be... I see, it's like group night vision?"

"But it is true that Mr. Fran is famous for his illusion ability."

"Then, since there is no problem, if you encounter a photophobic monster or undead, can you make the other party feel the light?"

"If you need me," Francesca said.

Afterwards, Ainz, who was the strongest warrior among the several teams, walked at the front and took the lead and began to penetrate the passage.

The seemingly deep and sometimes twisting passage encountered no more danger for a while. Suddenly, when the next bend came, Ainz raised his hand to listen to the team behind him.

"Mr. Feifei, what's wrong?" Someone asked with increased vigilance.

Ainz approached the corner of the wall, bent slightly and stretched out his hand, dragging out what looked like a corpse. It was dressed in armor that seemed to have been severely beaten and cut, and its face could not be seen with a helmet and visor.

"It seems there are a few similar ones there," Ainz said. These were actually the undead he had brought in before. Since they were made from corpses that had been dug up, they would not disappear even after death, so they were just a good way to show off.

, reflecting your careful observation and keen intuition.

"This is... the armor doesn't look old. Is it the predecessor who came and died not long ago?" someone said.

"No, I don't think so." Francesca stepped forward, turned the head over, and lifted the helmet visor——

The decayed face shocked everyone.

"Zombies!"

"But that equipment... naturally it is impossible to transform into the undead so quickly. Is there a death knight or great magician of the dead here!"

"...It's also possible that other undead came to compete here and were defeated."

In fact, they are low-level undead called zombie warriors created by Ainz. The equipment is all included after creation.

"Very good, this person's guess must be correct." Francesca threw the helmet against the wall of the passage and bounced it back to the corner——

Then there was a mixed sound of stones rubbing, opening, closing, hitting and cutting.

Judging from the degree of damage on the zombies, if a few of them trigger the trap, the agile warriors, thieves, and rangers who remain vigilant may be able to escape, but the others will probably die or not survive.

Ainz glanced at the wall where the pillars like battering rams and the guillotine knives had been blasted out not long ago. He pulled back and asked, "There is a white hanging net on the ceiling here. Do you know anything about it?"
