Becoming a winner in life starts with becoming a shadow

"Yes, Aegis is a set of full-body armor of the faith system, which can defend against the attacks of the strong who have entered the mythical realm. This is also the confidence that I can stand in front of the demon king." Laqiusi briefly introduced the function of the holy armor Aegis.

"Oh, it can defend against attacks that have entered the mythical realm. It's really great. No wonder the demon king was afraid before." This time, it was the second prince Zanak Valleo Igna Leir Fansef who was sitting next to Rambosa III who spoke.

"Second Prince, you are too kind. I just borrowed the power of the artifact." Laqiusi shook her head lightly.

"Sir Milia is too modest. You, Sir Brave, are the only one in the kingdom who can show no weakness in front of the demon king." Zanak continued to praise with a warm smile.

"I just can't tolerate the cruelty of the demon king. He is undoubtedly the embodiment of evil and the representative of darkness and disaster." Laqiusi's tone suddenly became heavy when she said this.

When all the nobles heard this, their expressions became serious.

After all, those who have been to the battlefield of Kaze Plain can deeply understand what La Qiusi said at this moment.

"Sir Milia, I wonder if you have any way to defeat the demon king? His existence greatly threatens the safety of the entire kingdom." This time it was the third princess Lana who spoke.

"It's difficult. It is definitely not something that a single person or a country can do to deal with the demon king. If it's just one-on-one, I may still have a little chance of winning, and the winning rate is also very low.

But according to the information I got, the demon king has several strong men who have also entered the mythical realm. Considering this information, I have no chance of winning without help." La Qiusi shook her head slightly when she said this.

Although the people present could not see the face covered by the armor, everyone could guess that the expression of the hero must be quite solemn.

But this is also good, after all, for them, there is no hope at all, and all they can see is failure and despair.

"We have also received some rumors about the forces that Ainz Ooal Gown belongs to. We have also received internal information from the Empire. It is said that the subordinates of that monster are all at the top of the mythology field, and there are as many as several of them." Zhanak nodded with a serious expression.

Although he didn't want to say this, it was difficult to block the news from the Empire, and some people with ulterior motives had already known it.

"Therefore, if we want to defeat the Demon King, we can only form a great alliance of countries and gather the top strongmen and troops of various countries. Only in this way can we have the opportunity to capture the Great Tomb of Nazarick and conquer it." Laqiusi stopped here.

After all, she was invited here today, and she even didn't hesitate to embarrass herself in front of a group of nobles to achieve her goal, which was to initiate a great alliance of countries.

As long as the first victim, the Kingdom of Re-Estize, agreed, it would naturally try its best to promote other countries to join the great alliance.

After all, everyone knows that facing a magic king alone, the kingdom still relies on the brave to come forward to complete the withdrawal of troops.

If the hero had not intervened in the tragedy of Katze Plain, the kingdom's army might have been completely wiped out.

But it was precisely because of this that after Laqiusi threw out the proposal of the Grand Alliance, no one dared to speak up.

It was really the Demon King of the Great Tomb of Nazarick, who was so powerful!

No one wanted to be the first to stand out.

Because once the other party targeted him, no matter how many lives he had, it would not be enough to die!

"I wonder if I can invite all the countries except the Empire to meet in the name of my hero Milia?" Laqiusi said again after a moment of silence in the hall.

"Your Excellency the Hero is a great benefactor of the kingdom. Such a simple request will definitely be met by the kingdom." Ramboza III nodded and agreed.

Seeing the hero being so sensible, Ramboza III felt much more at ease. After all, after experiencing the tragedy of Katze Plain, the kingdom's spirit was broken.

No matter how stupid and reckless a man was, no one dared to stand up and say publicly that he wanted to attack the Magic King.

So when Laqiusi proposed the idea of ​​a grand alliance, it was destined that no one except her would be the initiator of the alliance.

"The bait has been thrown out, and the rest depends on whether the other party will be fooled." Li De, who was far away in the sky, looked in the direction of E-Lantel and couldn't help saying.

"It depends on whether the threat of the Holy Fire to the Magic King is so great that he must get rid of Laqiusi, or destroy the Holy Armor Aegis no matter what." Claire also stared in the direction of E-Lantel and said.

After all, Momonga happened to have a world-class item with the strongest effect on objects in his hand-the Hell Abyss.

With the characteristic that it will never be damaged or degraded, this thing will not be afraid of the burning of the Holy Fire.

Therefore, as long as someone is sent to assassinate Laqiusi or destroy the Holy Armor Aegis, this world-class item will definitely be used.

And the user of this world-class item, Albedo, will definitely appear.

A few days later, Li De got the answer from Momonga.

Albedo will represent the Sorcerous Kingdom of Ainz Ooal Gown to visit the Kingdom of Re-Estize in Rolande City.

"Cid, how should we respond?" Claire asked Reed after seeing the news from Alexia.

"What do you think?" Li De did not express his thoughts, but asked the gathered captains.

"Although I want to say that a simple visit is also possible, but I'm afraid it won't be that simple this time. However, I think it needs to be tested to understand how determined the other party is this time." The first person to speak was Esdeath. .

At this moment, her spirit was already starting to get excited. After all, the battle she had been waiting for was finally coming.

"I also agree with Esdeath's proposal. It is indeed necessary to test the other party's determination." Fubuki next to Esdeath also nodded.

"But will this develop into a decisive battle? This possibility is not impossible." Ypsilon said cautiously.

"This possibility is indeed possible!" Zeta on the side also nodded.

"And once the fighting starts, we will be exposed." Gama also said.

"Even if there is such a possibility, we have to test it." Alpha had a different view.

After all, only by clearly understanding the threat level of the Holy Fire in Momonga's heart can we make accurate adjustments.

"Then let Lachus hire the 'Blue Rose' to go to the Council. If the members of the Great Tomb of Nazarick really catch up, then they will have a fight in the Council and drag the Council into future wars first. Come.

Gamma, take two of you to take over Alexia's team. Delta will accompany you as escort, and Zeta will monitor Albedo and her party. If a battle breaks out, Alpha, my sister and I will be ready to reinforce you. "Li De made up his mind after thinking for a while.

After Li De gave the order, the girls immediately took action.

As Lachus left Lorenti City and headed towards the Council of Countries, the news was quickly passed to Momonga.

"Demiurge, what do you think?" In the study of Lord E-Rantel's mansion, Momonga looked at the news from Lorenti City, pondered for a while and asked Demiurge. .

Momonga was also worried that his thinking was not thorough enough, so he asked for help from the number one think tank in the Great Tomb of Nazarick.

"As expected, it must be a trap." Demiurge said after pushing the eye frame on the bridge of his nose with his hand.

"I think so too." Momonga nodded. After all, he didn't think that the brave Milia would be afraid of Albedo at all.

In fact, Albedo's visit was just his test. After all, he had not been able to get any information using various intelligence-gathering magics before. Because of this, Momonga sent Albedo to Albedo on the advice of Demiurge. Bede sent an envoy to the city of Lorenti.

Unexpectedly, as soon as he tested it, the other party couldn't wait to take action.

"Demiurge, how do you think we should respond?" Momonga continued to ask.

"Lord Ainz, I think we should remain unchanged in response to all changes. Although this is very passive, the current situation is that the enemy is in the dark and we are clear. We are at a disadvantage in terms of intelligence. If we act blindly, we may fall into the opponent's plan.

And I think that behind the opponent's actions, they expressed an intention to move us out of the Great Tomb of Nazarick and fight them outside. In other words, the other party also knew very little about the Great Tomb of Nazarick, so they were unwilling to step into an unfamiliar place. " Demiurge analyzed unhurriedly.

"I think so too, but" Momonga paused here.

Because Momonga understood the meaning of what Demiurge didn't say, but it was precisely because of this that Momonga hesitated.

"Lord Ainz, the current situation requires us to find the other party first. If we allow the other party to keep an eye on us secretly, the situation will be even worse," Demiurge advised.

"I know this, I just feel unwilling to do so." Momonga nodded. After all, the opponent even brought out world-class props, so how could Momonga not be wary.

Faced with Momonga's sigh, Demiurge could only continue to persuade him: "Lord Ainz, judging from the current situation, the best way is to confront Yangmou and let them shoot themselves in the foot. .

After all, if you want to break the opponent's big alliance, you must step into the opponent's trap. Even if Ainz-sama is not afraid of any provocation, we should still be cautious when dealing with unknown forces.

So the best way to deal with it is to wait and wait for the major alliance to be formed. By that time, they will have no choice but to take the initiative to attack us. In this way, we can turn the tables and lead the opponent to the home court we are most familiar with. "

That's right, what Demiurge meant was to let the heroes act, and even watch the Grand Alliance being formed like this. In order to overthrow the Great Tomb of Nazarick, the Grand Alliance's attack was imminent and had to be launched.

And when the time comes, they only need to shrink E-Rantel's forces back to the Great Tomb of Nazarick, and they will be able to force the opponent to attack the Great Tomb of Nazarick, thereby ensuring that the war takes place on their home court.

However, in this way, the Great Tomb of Nazarick will definitely suffer considerable damage.

This is where Momonga hesitates or is not happy. After all, he was already very reluctant when he used the Great Tomb of Nazarick to lure the 'workers' sent by the empire.

"It seems that's all we can do now." Although Momonga was very reluctant, he didn't want his members to be stared at by some force in the dark.

So after struggling for a while, Momonga agreed to Demiurge's strategy.

The moment he agreed, Momonga made the decision to use the most cruel method to make all the forces attacking the Great Tomb of Nazarick taste the taste of hell.

"Master, the other party has no intention of chasing us!" Zeta, who was responsible for monitoring Albedo, sent a message to report back to Reed.

"Don't you want to take the bait?" Reed couldn't help but sigh.

"It may be a counter-test against us." Alpha said.

"Zeta, is there a breath of guardians of other levels in Albedo's visiting group and the surrounding areas?" Reed asked Zeta.

"No! But Albedo has a more obvious spatial breath. I think it should be some kind of equipment or props that can be transferred in a critical moment." Zeta said after carefully sensing it.

As for the other party hiding his own breath under Zeta's sensing.

This is impossible. After all, the power obtained by relying on the World Tree System can be used, but it cannot be freely restrained and hidden like Reed and others.

It seems that Momonga has to rely on props to hide his powerful magic, so the members of the Great Tomb of Nazarick, or most of the members of this world, are all invisible in the sensing of Reed and others.

"Since the mountain doesn't come to me, let's go to the mountain." Reed immediately said to Claire and Alpha.

"Understood!" Claire nodded.

Alpha, who also nodded, had taken out the world-class item 'The Beauty of the Country' that he had seized before from the magic bag and put it on.

"Zeta, locate the current position of the visiting group, Esdeath, mobilize the corresponding number of people, we are going to prepare for the raid." Reed immediately gave Zeta an order.

"Yes, Master, I will immediately ask the relevant personnel to prepare." Esdeath said immediately.

"Master, the location has been completed." Zeta also sent a message immediately.

"Then do it!" Reed gave the order directly after hearing the answer.

As Reed's order was issued, Claire and Alpha disappeared directly.

At the same time, some people in the 'Fearless Monarch' also disappeared.

When they appeared again, they appeared directly beside the visiting group.

The next moment, the darkness that swallowed the light directly enveloped the visiting group.

Although these darknesses could not hinder the sight of the undead, they could block possible external sights.

In the darkness, the undead in the visiting group did not make any moves, because a person appeared in front of each of them, a person with complex patterns on his pupils.

His powerful reincarnation eye instantly controlled the consciousness of these low-level undead.
