After the trap that Francesca deliberately triggered and displayed was temporarily subsided, Ainz noticed that there was something on the ceiling that had not been affected by the trap, which he did not know, so he consulted with other teams.
The magic caster of "Five Whistle" took one look and was the first to recognize it: "It's the Spider's Ladder! It should be the masterpiece of my predecessor to pass here."
Everyone seemed to understand.
Ainz was a little confused. He had never heard of that thing. It was a good thing not to be ashamed to ask, but it was inconsistent with his current status.
The Spider's Ladder is a very interesting and convenient thing. It is very flexible. Users can stick to it if they want to, and can easily escape if they want to. Even people with heavy loads and difficulty with agile hands and feet can easily climb. Because of these
Features, you can even hang on it to rest when you are tired. It is a must-have for mountain climbing, rock climbing and burglary if conditions permit.
"But this is incomprehensible."
"Yes, the monsters are blocking the door. Why haven't they been cleared away?"
"Is there any possibility of setting up a double trap?"
"This is difficult for ruins whose structure has been finalized. Especially if there are traps inside, it will affect the whole body. If it is a temporary trap on the outer layer, we can't see it."
After repeated inspections, it seemed that there was no problem, and based on the principle of saving money before knowing the way ahead, I used the hanging spider ladder to pass here.
From here on, the road ahead is unknown, and Ainz, who is accustomed to using his own tactics to save others, begins to take things seriously.
After that, we encountered many monster teams and very classic traps.
Most of the monsters encountered were undead, mainly skeletons wearing ordinary weapons and a small number of skeleton magicians. 30% of the skeletons did not look like humans. Some skeletons actually had many scratch marks on their bodies, which revealed another piece of information -
-These undead were originally flesh-and-blood undead types, most likely zombies, but the owner here cut off all the carrion and scraped it clean. Maybe it was right to guess that the ruler here had a mysophobia when observing outside the temple.
of.
At the same time, the types of undead are similar to those automatically generated in the Kaz Plains, but are stronger. Perhaps they were captured from there and underwent some kind of transformation.
The traps encountered are troublesome, such as holes with sticky bodies or sharp objects underneath, arrows or other killing objects shot from inconspicuous corners and wall holes, circular saws cutting along the room without blind spots, occupying
Rolling stones throughout the passage even crushed the walls.
Although classical, they are all traps that everyone knows how to deal with, but when the activation speed and effectiveness of the trap approach or even exceed everyone's reaction ability, it is another matter.
Everyone was in danger. On several occasions, Ainz was able to save the day by using his own body and equipment to hold up the mechanism. Rolling stones and crushing walls were even shattered by him.
Ainz felt a little regretfully that the reliefs and decorative styles here were indeed full of myths from another time and space that he was familiar with and often used as game settings, but the "ruins" themselves were indeed full of the texture of being built with local materials. If
If you don't consider that every brick and stone may have been treated with magic [conservation], the history here will not reach a hundred years even if it is high.
So this temple with such a weird name as "Altar of Destruction" was deliberately built to look abandoned from the beginning, and the purpose is very questionable.
The others still didn't know what Ainz was thinking, and they were all amazed by Ainz's huge strength. If it weren't for the human face that was revealed when he lifted the helmet, they would have doubted whether it was a monster.
Although Ainz's face is made of illusion and a mask, the real race is indeed a monster to them.
Just when everyone was amazed at the terrifying strength and toughness of the weapon, multiple arrows flew from the depths of the passage again.
"Drink!" Ainz let out a different roar than before. He blocked the others in front of them. The metal shoes he stepped forward crushed the floor tiles, and he struck and blocked the arrows with several precise sword strikes.
However, an arrow still pierced Ainz's shoulder.
"Arrows made by magic? Mr. Feifei, are you okay?" someone shouted.
"It's okay, it just pierced the edge of the armor." Ainz felt that this arrow was unusual and he used a little more force. This wave of arrows was not dense, but it was much stronger than ordinary arrows with wooden shafts and metal arrows.
, it immediately collapsed and disappeared after being slashed and hitting the target - this is why others thought it was an arrow made by magic.
But Ainz was more concerned about another thing. Others probably didn't see it clearly, but the arrows were actually pink hearts, just like toys.
"Could it still be Cupid's arrow? Game equipment?" He muttered in a low voice.
"What?"
"No, I'm just talking to myself, I'm not sure yet."
Ainz reconsidered the possibility that this place was related to the time traveler, which world he came from, his own or Mordred's. Mordred's weapons were also very fancy, but they were still extremely practical.
This love arrow looks different in style, more like a game toy. Could it be a player? However, the sapphire wand from Miyou, which I have collaborated with once before, also looks very much like a toy. However, after probing and asking, I found that she is not a player.
time-traveling.
After all, there is still too little information. He is like a fish in water in the country where he has developed power, so it is natural for him to be like this when he comes to a strange place. He cannot use his identity in those countries here, so it seems that he must use his current identity to expand the intelligence network as soon as possible.
A few hours later, they found the vertical hole leading to the lower level.
"Follow the signs along the way and return. This exploration will end here." The leader of the "Four Color Armed Forces" looked down and said.
When Ainz saw that neither the Five Whistle nor the Six Sword Warriors objected, he asked, "Why is this? I still have most of my strength. Although you are not as strong as us, you should still have a considerable amount of energy left."
Have some spare energy."
"Mr. Feifei is indeed very powerful, but it seems that he has no experience in this kind of exploration entrustment. When exploring unknown areas, especially places where the sun is not visible, it is easy to have an illusion about time, and you will feel tired when you wake up.
When you rush up, it will be too late to encounter danger, especially in a place like this where the enemy is prepared from the beginning."
Another person said: "Yes, if we withdraw, the enemy will start to try to prepare again, and attacking again will also increase their consumption. In addition, we are already familiar with the terrain outside, which is equivalent to choosing a location with relatively less unknown intelligence."
combat, and the distance we need to advance against the enemy with equal losses will be reduced. At the same time, it is easier for us to prepare according to the enemy's characteristics. Even if the enemy will take this into consideration, the channel itself and their own characteristics will not
