Warhammer 30k and the Great Tomb of Nazarick

Chapter 125: Exile to the Great Tomb Begins

The Mechanicus searched the entire sixth floor, but could not find out what maintained the environment here, and could only attribute it to magic. Then they shoveled the surface here.

Along the way, some of the demihumans who took refuge in the Great Tomb of Nazarick were executed, while others with special features were used as experimental specimens.

It took a long time to clean the sixth floor, more than three times longer than the previous ones. After finishing the job, the Mechanicus began to dig downwards.

The Great Tomb of Nazarick, the Seventh Floor of the Lava Hell
This is a world where the air seems to be sparkling with red light. The lava that flickers with the brilliance of red lotus flows like a river, and many bubbles appear from time to time.

The seventh floor is populated by demons, evil spirits, and some undead with strong fire resistance. Due to the extremely high temperature, ordinary creatures cannot survive here at all. It is truly a hell world.

Well, that’s what the players who created the seventh floor together thought.

However, for the Mechanicus and Space Marines exploring the universe, the seventh layer is just a slightly hot space.

In order to strengthen the defense of the Great Tomb, Demiurge was released from under surveillance. Ainz also sent out two undead summons above level 90, the Materialized Grim Reaper and the Undead Lieutenant, to help and monitor Demiurge at all times.

(Summoning both the materialized Grim Reaper and the undead lieutenants requires a large amount of experience points. The experience points Ainz uses come from the storage in the world-class items Greed and Desirelessness.)
But now it seems that the released Demiurge does not seem to be of any help to the entire battle situation.

In fact it is.

Even Ivel behind Demiurge didn't plan to cause trouble at this time, because there was nothing on the seventh floor that interested the Oil Man, so he did not hold back on this floor. After resisting for more than ten minutes, all the living forces on the seventh floor of Nazarick were wiped out.

Demiurge was also resurrected in the Throne Room. As for the eye that Ivel possessed in Demiurge, it was secretly transferred to the Golden Princess Lana during the process of resurrecting Demiurge.

After easily crushing all the defenses on the seventh floor, the Mechanicus advanced towards the eighth floor of the Great Tomb of Nazarick, which is also the forbidden area of ​​the Great Tomb and the location of the core trump card.

The eighth floor of the Great Tomb of Nazarick is the wasteland, which is the most special floor in the Great Tomb of Nazarick and also part of the ultimate defense line of the Great Tomb of Nazarick.

After arriving in this world, Ainz even designated the eighth floor as a forbidden area for safety reasons, and installed a portal to the ninth floor on the seventh floor (which was closed before the fight).

In the gaming era, no one had ever been able to break through the eighth floor. Even the coalition of 1,500 players was completely wiped out on the eighth floor.

Everything here is the result of extreme utilization of the game mechanism, which is equivalent to creating a super-powerful class by exploiting a system bug.

The guardian of the eighth floor is also the most special among all the guardians. The one here is Viktim, who is known as the best guardian who can delay time.

Wiktim looks like a pink embryo with a tail, an unusually bright pink body, an angel halo on its head, and a pair of shriveled wings without feathers on its back.

As a class guardian, its level is only thirty-five, even lower than that of the Battle Maid Corps. This design is because it possesses extremely special abilities, and they can only be activated after death, so its level is very low.

The deathrattle effect activated after Victim's death is a powerful control skill with a very large range (the range in the game). Using this skill in combination with appropriate assists can achieve a very amazing combat-to-damage ratio.

Ainz poured a lot of effort into this, and he hoped very much that this time the eighth floor of Victim could create a miracle like last time, and continue the legend that the Great Tomb of Nazarick would not be conquered.

But the Mechanicus were not stupid. When they found this barren place with only an embryo-like thing floating around, they knew there was something wrong even with Ogryn's brain. They were not players with normal strategies, or a force with insufficient combat power.

After a round of artillery fire representing the Imperial Truth, the deathrattle effects and mechanisms of the eighth floor were still triggered. Even if the Mechanicus were there at this time, it was of no use.

After seeing the eighth floor fall so easily, Ainz held his forehead with both hands. Although he forced himself to remain calm so as not to despair, the fear that followed him like a shadow was still extremely uncomfortable.

After a moment of silence, Ainz began distributing the Ring of Ainz Ooal Gown to all NPCs and high-level units on the scene.

Teleporting in and out of the Great Tomb of Nazarick is forbidden and can only be done with the Ring of Ainz Ooal Gown.

Seeing the rings representing the guild being distributed one by one, everyone knew what Ainz was planning.

The Supreme Being Ainz Ooal Gown, the Guild Master, Momonga is planning to abandon the Great Tomb of Nazarick. Ainz Ooal Gown was defeated today.

After confirming that everyone present had the ring, Ainz nodded and said:
"Everyone, I know that it is extremely painful to abandon our home and the Great Tomb of Nazarick."

"But sometimes, doing things is like buying stocks. You can't be trapped. You have to sell when it's time to sell. Our retreat today is not an escape, but just a search for opportunities. We will come back here again and retake the Great Tomb of Nazarick that belongs to us."

Having said that, Ainz was still unsure. The Great Tomb of Nazarick had been dug up. Would he really be able to find it when he returned?

But there is no other way. If you can’t beat them, you can only kneel down.

Now that the enemy won’t even kneel, we can only run away.

As Ainz spoke, a cry was heard in the throne room of the Great Tomb, but in the midst of the cry, two different voices suddenly rang out.

"Lord Ainz, I wish to stay."

"And me, I want to stay too."

"Ok?"

Ainz looked at the two people who made the noise. One was Demiurge, and the other was Nazarick's deputy steward, Ekulael Ekulael Ekulaea.

“You want to stay? I’m not sure if I can revive you after you leave the Great Tomb of Nazarick. If you die here, you’re really dead.”

Although he had doubts about Demiurge, Ainz still said this.

“Yes, Lord Ainz. I have made up my mind. We cannot let the invaders destroy the Great Tomb of Nazarick so easily. I will make them pay the price.”

“Also, Lord Ainz, I have brought disgrace upon the Great Tomb of Nazarick and put it in danger because of me. I hope you can give me a chance to atone for my sins.”

"Is that so, Demiurge?"

“Yes, Lord Ainz.”

Demiurge said as he told Ainz to get off his seat and bow his head to the ground. Ainz then looked at Aikulare, the penguin deputy steward who was created as a comedic character.

“Lord Ainz, I want to rule Nazarick. Since you are leaving, how about you hand over the ruling of Nazarick to me before you go?”

"You want the right to rule Nazarick?"

Ainz whispered. He remembered this setting. It was the setting that Red Mochi made for this penguin.

"Well, now, I appoint you as the temporary commander-in-chief of the Great Tomb of Nazarick."

"Great! My ambition has finally come true!"

The penguin jumped for joy.

After Ainz gave the remaining authority of the guild to Penguin and Demiurge, he led the rest of the people to escape outside the Great Tomb of Nazarick through teleportation, and took away as many treasures as possible.

Only Demiurge and the penguin Aikulare were left in the empty throne room.
