After the four squads, Foresight, Dragon Hunt, Heavy Masher, and Tenmu, finalized their profit distribution, they quietly infiltrated the Great Tomb of Nazarick from the east, west, north, and south directions respectively.
During this process, they used skills to conceal their presence.
However, unbeknownst to them, all their actions, like prey caught in a spider's web, were being watched by the masters of this place.
…
"Those lowly, inferior creatures have entered. Has Ainz-sama not arrived yet?"
The Head Maid, Yuri Alpha, watching Foresight and the others enter the Great Tomb of Nazarick, asked with a somewhat displeased expression.
"Beta discovered traces of Shalltear-sama. Ainz-sama is currently making preparations regarding Shalltear-sama. Ainz-sama instructed us to proceed according to plan."
The nearby CZ2128 Delta answered expressionlessly.
"Then let's begin!"
With Yuri's order, the outermost defense mechanisms of the Great Tomb of Nazarick activated.
A large number of Undead were released from different rooms, slowly swarming towards the locations of Foresight and the other infiltrators.
Because the Great Tomb of Nazarick intentionally held back, Foresight and the other infiltrators didn't encounter Undead guards until they truly entered the first floor of the Tomb.
And they were all low-tier Undead.
But the numbers were simply too vast.
The infiltrators could only fight while searching for passages.
As the workers went deeper, the strength of the Undead guards also increased.
The three squads, Dragon Hunt, Heavy Masher, and Tenmu, had already begun to suffer casualties.
Some members even mistakenly entered certain terrifying rooms and suffered inhuman torture.
Foresight, however, had the Platinum Dragon Lord with them. They progressed smoothly and unimpeded, continuously delving deeper.
At first, Yuri and the other maids didn't pay much attention to the Foresight, thinking it was just good luck.
But when Foresight reached the third floor of the Great Tomb of Nazarick, Yuri and the others finally realized something was abnormal.
"What's going on with these rats? How did they reach the third floor? Was it specially arranged by Ainz-sama?"
"Ainz-sama did prepare some side entertainment before, but it was canceled due to the matter with Shalltear-sama."
"So, they weren't intentionally allowed to break into the third floor? Send Death Knights to capture these rats and deliver them to Kyouhukou."
…
Massive Death Knights, their bodies emanating a black, ominous aura, slowly advanced towards Foresight's location, each holding swords and shields.
"Not good! A large number of terrifying Undead are heading this way!"
Arche, the only magic caster in Foresight, sensed the terrifying aura of the Death Knights and her face paled dramatically.
It must be noted that each Death Knight possessed strength surpassing that of the Kingdom's Warrior Captain, Gazef Stronoff.
And now, an entire legion of Death Knights was approaching.
How could Arche not panic?
The other three members of Foresight were about to speak when their bodies also began to tremble instinctively.
Thump Thump Thump…
Immediately after, the sound of perfectly synchronized footsteps came from the dark passage ahead.
These synchronized footsteps sounded like heavy beats on the hearts of the Foresight's members.
Soon, Foresight saw the true face of what made them tremble.
They were tall Death Knights, each emitting a black aura.
"Run..."
At this moment, that was the only thought in the minds of the Foresight's members.
But as soon as they turned around, the same synchronized footsteps also came from behind them.
At this moment, Foresight felt despair.
Just as Arche and the others thought they were doomed, the Platinum Armor, who had been acting covertly until now, stepped forward.
"I warned you outside that this place is extremely dangerous."
After speaking, the Platinum Armor waved its hand, and a burst of light shot out.
In the next second, the Death Knights in the passage ahead evaporated like evil spirits bathed in holy light.
The Foresight's members stared at this scene, utterly astonished.
'Just like that?'
Although they hadn't actually fought the Death Knights, just sensing the aura emanating from them was enough to make them tremble instinctively… they knew the Death Knights were powerful.
And now, this newcomer they had considered a rookie had wiped out an entire legion of Death Knights with a wave of his hand.
How could Foresight not be shocked?
They had never encountered such a powerful being before.
"Go back the way you came!"
After casually eliminating the Death Knights on the other side of the passage as well, the Platinum Armor said this to Foresight, then quickly charged deeper into the Great Tomb of Nazarick.
After witnessing the terror of the Death Knights, how could Foresight dare to go any deeper?
Without any hesitation, they ran frantically back along the path they came from.
"Yuri, all the Death Knights have been eliminated."
Solution reported with a grim expression.
"It seems a rat has snuck in. We must inform Ainz-sama about this."
Although Death Knights weren't considered strong by the Battle Maids and others, for humans, they were quite powerful existences.
Before Foresight and the others entered the Great Tomb of Nazarick, Yuri had naturally conducted reconnaissance.
According to her reconnaissance, the strength of these infiltrators was mostly around level 18.
The strongest was the silver-haired man leading a few elf girls.
That silver-haired man had already been dealt with by Hamusuke.
But now, someone who could instantly annihilate two legions of Death Knights had suddenly appeared. This was clearly abnormal.
