Chapter 317

Although Ye Lantel at night is not brightly lit, it is not like the village of Karn Village that needs sunrise and sunset.

On the main road here, there is a magical white light called [permanent light] lighting up, so that the fortress city under the night will not be completely shrouded in darkness.

However, human beings are creatures that can be affected by the night. Unlike other races, they have the ability to see night, so people in this world have an instinctive fear of the night. Except for special occupations such as adventurers, most people basically It is rare to live overnight.

Therefore, after nightfall, the number of pedestrians on Ye Lantel Road decreased a lot, and young women and children were almost invisible. Only men who probably just finished their day's work and planned to go home were walking on the road. The people on both sides of the street In some restaurants, the laughter of men gathering to drink was also heard, but other than that, the place was peaceful.

There are several hotels specially provided for adventurers in Ye-Rantel, and the adventurers who are resident in Ye-Rantel will basically live there.

There, they can meet like-minded colleagues and come in and out together. If they know each other well, they may even form a team together and go out on missions together.

But Li Ge didn't live there, but stayed in the most high-end hotel in Ye-Rantel —— "Golden Light Shining Pavilion".

It's not that Li Ge is particularly picky about where he lives.

Among the hotels provided for adventurers, there are also hotels frequently used by high-level adventurers, and the environment there is actually acceptable.

But after spending a few days in Ye Lantel, Li Ge chose the Shining Golden Pavilion as his place of residence.

The reason is simple, the dishes here are delicious.

As the most advanced hotel in Ye-Rantel, the dishes launched by Jinguang Shining Pavilion are cooked with the magic of [preservation] to keep the fresh ingredients. The chef in charge of cooking is also a super professional, and has been well received by the industry.

Here, you can eat fluffy white bread that ordinary civilians can never eat, thick red meat dripping with gravy, mashed potatoes with sweet corn and a lot of cream, and fresh vegetables There are delicious salads and gluttonous mead, and sometimes you can even eat edible monster meat and rare tree berries brought back by adventurers from outside the city. This is a delicacy that other hotels do not have.

Many high-class people are attracted by these delicious dishes in the Golden Light Pavilion, and often eat here.

It can be said that this place, like the mead restaurant in Akasha, is a high-end place that only nobles and wealthy businessmen come and go.

Li Ge didn't have too strict requirements on where he lived, as long as it wasn't too messy, but who would refuse to eat three meals a day that were extremely rich and delicious?

Except for the special situation of going on an expedition to the dungeon, Li Ge's daily food and accommodation are actually not bad, either in the Loki family, one of the strongest families in Olalie, or in Fran, who is the marquis. In Zell's house, even in the world of Ghost Slayer, he was treated solemnly by the Miyayashiki family and the Ghost Slayer Squad. Under such circumstances, it would be difficult for Li Ge's living conditions to deteriorate.

Therefore, if it is not necessary, Li Ge still does not want to make do with eating some unpalatable things to satisfy his hunger, especially in this medieval world without a developed food culture.

To sum up, Li Ge finally chose this shining golden pavilion as his foothold and lived here.

Of course, in this most exclusive hotel in Ye-Rantel, the price is definitely not cheap, whether it is a night or a meal.

At the very least, ordinary adventurers, even Mithril-ranked, would hesitate to use this place as their long-term base for food and lodging.

But for Li Ge who can use magic to make gold, this is not something worth considering.

It has to be said that the magic of the Akasha continent is really unique. The magic system of alchemy has been fully matured, making ordinary gold a cheap metal, almost no longer worth anything.

Gold has been reduced to a stone on the side of the road in the Akasha continent, but in the other world, it is still extremely valuable, so that Li Ge no longer has to worry about money and other issues when walking in the other world.

As long as he wanted to, he could become the richest person in the world in minutes, just stay in a hotel, there was nothing to hesitate about.

Tonight too, Li Ge returned to his hotel room after enjoying a delicious dinner.

However, just after returning to the room, Li Ge felt that he was being spied upon.

"anyone there?"

He was startled for a moment, then opened the transparent world and looked around.

Not long after, Li Ge saw some creatures that others couldn't see in some hidden corners.

It was a monster that was about the same size as a human, wearing ninja-like clothing, but looked like a black spider.

They have eight legs with sharp blades, and the cold light is shining on the sharp blades, which makes people shudder when they look at them.

There are a total of four such monsters, one is attached to the tree outside the window, one is hanging upside down by the window, one is hiding in the corridor outside the room, and one even sneaked into Lige very boldly. room, just attached to the ceiling.

They are obviously in these positions, but no one can see these monsters.

Because they have now become transparent, and all the breath has been suppressed. Judging by the degree of concealment, let alone ordinary people, even the highest-ranked steel-level adventurers, it is difficult to find their existence.

Unfortunately, in Li Ge's transparent world, they have nowhere to hide.

Li Ge also recognized the identities of these monsters.

"Is this... the Eight-Limbed Sword Assassin?"

An eight-limb knife assassin.

This is a monster that is extremely good at covert actions and can make itself invisible. It can be called an assassination expert.

When they attack others, they use eight sharp blade-like legs to attack their prey at the same time, launching eight attacks at the same time, as long as they cannot block one of the blows, they will die on the spot, there is no chance at all.

In this world, the existence of eight-limb knife assassins is a great threat to all living things.

In "YGGDRASIL", this kind of monster is as high as level 49, which is much stronger than any existence in the hero domain in this world.

Such a group of monsters are also good at concealment and assassination, let alone high-ranking officials of various countries, even kings and emperors, there is a great probability that they will be easily killed by them.

Such a terrifying monster, now there are four of them appearing here, around Li Ge.

"..."

Rieg fell silent.

Without thinking about it carefully, Li Ge could guess who the person who sent the Eight-Limbed Saber Assassin to him was.

"I didn't expect that he would take such an action directly."

Li Ge knew that he must have aroused Ainz's vigilance, or even made him hostile, so he would send the Octopus Assassin over, possibly for the purpose of spying on him.

Regarding this, Li Ge just felt that Gu Aotian did not use the magic of the intelligence department to investigate himself, but sent people directly like this, isn't it too hasty?

Isn't he afraid of getting his own attention?

Or is he really confident that the eight-limb knife assassin can fool Li Ge's eyes?

"He probably thinks that if he uses intelligence magic to investigate me, he might be counterattacked, so he can only send monsters who are good at concealment to spy on me like this?"

Li Ge felt that he could guess what Ainz was thinking.

"YGGDRASIL" has a lot of information-based magic, and can do many strange things.

For example, the eighth-level magic [Distance Vision] is an intelligence-type magic specially used for detection and investigation, allowing the caster to observe the scene in a distant place.

For example, the ninth-level magic [God's Eye] can generate invisible incorporeal magic eyes, making it fly to far away places for scouting. Through the wall, sneak into the interior of the building to investigate.

However, there are many ways to target this type of information-based magic in "YGGDRASIL".

Take [God's Eye] as an example, because the generated incorporeal magic eye itself is only invisible and hidden, so as long as someone can use the second-level [See Through] magic, they will be able to discover the existence of this eye.

In addition, intelligence-based investigative magic is generally easily locked by anti-investigative magic. Therefore, casters who use investigative magic usually have a high probability of revealing their position in turn, which is extremely risky.

In addition, many players in "YGGDRASIL" have offensive defenses against intelligence-based magic. Once they are spied on by intelligence-based magic, the offensive defenses on their bodies will react to this magic, following the magic attack to the use of magic. Or, let the opponent get hurt. Therefore, although the intelligence magic is easy to use, no one dares to use it casually.

With Ainz's cautiousness and his current suspicion of Li Ge, he naturally would not use intelligence magic on Li Ge casually, lest his own existence be exposed, and he might be attacked in the opposite direction and be attacked by an offensive defense wall s damage.

That's why Ainz dispatched the Eight-Limbed Sword Assassin to carry out on-the-spot surveillance countermeasures.

but……

"I don't like being watched."

Li Ge raised his head, and met his eyes with the eight-legged knife assassin attached to the ceiling.

Then, the corners of Li Ge's mouth curled up slowly, and the pupils of the eight-legged knife assassin slowly shrank until they shrank to the size of a pinprick, and the situation took a further change.

"Aren't you coming down for a chat?"

Rieger said such words.

This told the Eight-Limbed Sword Assassin that his own existence was exposed.

"Shua!"

Without any hesitation, the Octopus Assassin suddenly turned into a black shadow, swept out of the room through the window.

"Exposed! Retreat!"

Following such a sharp cry, the other three eight-legged knife assassins immediately turned into a black shadow and swept outside without even thinking about it.

The order they received was to monitor Li Ge Brihaut, not to act rashly until they received the next instruction, and to evacuate immediately if there was an accident.

However, Li Ge did not allow it.

"Shin!"

The sound of drawing a knife sounded.

The next moment, thunder flashed.
