Chapter 332 The disguise was revealed

The next day, early morning.

Li Ge walked on the street, which was not in good condition, while listening to the lively conversations around him, and headed in the direction of the Adventurer's Guild.

Vaguely, Li Ge could hear words such as "The shining golden pavilion was burned down", "Mysterious magic chanters who control the undead appeared in the cemetery" and "Abnormality occurred in the northern forest", etc., which made him seem indifferent on the surface. , but there were some murmurs in the mainland.

"I have participated in all these incidents."

He single-handedly aroused heated discussions throughout E-Rantel and set off several incidents overnight. To a certain extent, he can be regarded as the source of all evil.

While thinking about such things, Li Ge came to the Adventurer's Guild. As a result, the adventurers here were actually discussing the same things, so that the bulletin board in front of the order form was empty. It looks like no one is planning to take the job.

Li Ge's arrival actually made the surrounding discussions quieter.

This is not only because Li Ge is recognized as a mithril-level adventurer, the highest level adventurer in the fortress city of E-Rantel, but also because according to rumors, the burning of the Golden Shining Pavilion has a lot to do with this person. .

Li Ge turned a deaf ear to such a scene and came to the counter as if he hadn't seen anything.

He didn't come here to take over the job, but to get information.

The Golden Shining Pavilion was burned down. The guild has not yet given an explanation as to how this incident will be dealt with.

Over at the cemetery, he also wanted to know how the city handled the situation after Li Ge left last night.

There is also the northern forest. I heard that the city that noticed something abnormal there has entrusted the guild to send adventurers to investigate.

It is naturally impossible for Li Ge to know the follow-up handling of these incidents. He can only come to the guild like this and ask the guild for information.

However, on Li Ge's way to the counter, a figure suddenly appeared in front of him and stopped him.

Li Ge stopped and looked at the other party.

"Isn't this the Dark Warrior?"

He spoke calmly and indifferently, calling out the other party's background.

The visitors were none other than Ainz, who had returned to E-Rantel, and his battle maid Narberal.

"What does he want to do?"

The adventurers around noticed the movement here and started talking about it.

Especially when they saw Ainz, who was dressed in jet black and gorgeous full-body armor, with a bronze medal hanging around his neck, yet dared to block the path of a mithril-level adventurer, many of them showed expressions of gloating.

Normally, Ainz might have paid attention to the place and the reactions around him.

But today, his whole body was releasing pressure that only Li Ge could detect, as well as a vague sense of anxiety.

"...I have something to ask you."

Ainz suppressed the emotion in his voice and tried to speak this sentence in a calm tone.

"Can."

Li Ge looked at Ainz as if he were a fish on the bait, and he couldn't help but curl up the corners of his mouth.

"Let's go and talk in the room prepared by the guild."

There are several rooms upstairs in the guild, which are used to provide adventurers and clients with a place for them to conduct various discussions.

Li Ge told the receptionist that he needed a room and asked the receptionist to go down and prepare.

"Let's go."

"……Um."

Rieger and Ainz walked upstairs together, and Narberal quickly followed.

Not long after, the two came together to a room similar to a conference room. There was a wooden table in the center of the room, and similarly wooden chairs were placed around the table. The layout was extremely simple and could be used as a meeting room. This is enough as a temporary place for conversation.

"..."

After Li Ge stepped into the room, he paused slightly as if he noticed something.

Then, he continued walking as if nothing had happened and came to a seat to sit down.

Ainz sat opposite Li Ge.

Narberal stood behind Ainz, silent, staring at Li Ge with hidden murderous intent in her eyes.

"Tell me." As if he hadn't seen Narberal, Li Ge dropped even the superficial etiquette and said to Ainz in an unceremonious tone for the first time: "You want to talk to me? What?"

Such a change in attitude, or rather the revelation of true nature, not only made the murderous intent in Narberal's eyes stronger, but also made Ainz frown without a trace.

In fact, if possible, Ainz would not want to confront Rieger directly.

He didn't want to expose too much in front of Li Ge, and he didn't want too much to be noticed by Li Ge, so if possible, maintaining the superficial friendship with Li Ge was his original wish.

But this time, Ainz couldn't hold himself back.

no way.

"Regarding the unusual movement that occurred in the northern forest last night, I would like to make some inquiries to you regarding this matter."

Ainz tried to make his tone sound less hostile.

"Oh?" Li Ge raised his eyebrows and said with a smile: "So, you already know about the vampire being mentally controlled?"

As soon as these words came out, Ainz finally couldn't help but stand up.

"It's really you!"

Narberal was even more direct, pulling out the sword from her waist and about to attack Rige.

"stop!"

Ainz shouted at Narberal.

"But……"

Narberal still wanted to take action, but Ainz stared at her coldly.

"I said stop, that's an order."

Hearing this, Narberal bit her lip and put the sword away reluctantly.

Ainz took a deep breath. Even though his skeletal body didn't need to breathe at all and couldn't breathe, he still performed this action to calm himself down.

Of course, the undead's unique compulsive calmness also meant that every time Ainz had overly strong emotions, these emotions would be suppressed immediately.

Therefore, Ainz was able to remain calm and sit down in front of Li Ge again.

"Are you really a participant in this matter?"

Ainz said this in an unusually calm tone.

In response, Li Ge just responded like this.

"Isn't it because you doubted me that you came to confront me like this?"

Li Ge continued to smile as if nothing happened just now.

"It's just suspicion." Ainz said calmly: "At least, among the people I know, you are the only one who gives me the feeling that you can do such a thing. In addition, I have reliable information to prove that last night, Your Excellency is not among E-Rantel."

"I see, that's why you are suspicious of me?" Li Ge said without changing his expression: "Okay, since you said so, I don't have to hide it."

"Last night, I did have a fight with that vampire over there in the forest."

"But don't get me wrong, I am not the one who controls her spirit."

Not to mention Narberal, even Ainz didn't believe what Rige said.

But his attitude was too calm, so Narberal left it alone, and Ainz suddenly felt hesitant.

After hesitating, Ainz did not discuss the matter further, but asked the question that concerned him most.

"Are you a player?"

Ainz actually asked such a question, which made Rige startled for a moment, and then he laughed again.

"You are the second person to ask me this question." Li Ge said calmly: "But unfortunately, I am not a player of "YGGDRASIL". "

You are lying.

Ainz wanted to yell so loudly.

You have already said the name "YGGDRASIL", how could you not be a player yet?

But before Ainz yelled this sentence, Rige said something coldly.

"You don't think that you are the only player of "YGGDRASIL" in this world, right? "

Such words made Ainz's non-existent face under his helmet seem to freeze imperceptibly.

The amount of information revealed by Li Ge's words is still very large.

At the very least, Ainz had to admit that the other party had seen through his origins.

"Don't think that you are special, and don't think that you can hide it well." Li Ge said calmly: "In the past hundreds of years, there have been many players who came to this world from "YGGDRASIL", you just It's just one of them. "

"So, don't be surprised because your origins are revealed. Anyone who knows the existence of "YGGDRASIL" and the existence of players will basically recognize your origins after meeting you face to face. "

"After all, the natives of this world are really not strong. Your strength itself is the most conspicuous player proof in the eyes of those who know it, right?"

These words caused quite a stir in Ainz's heart.

It's not that he hasn't thought that there might be players other than himself in this world, and he even has a few candidates in mind. However, according to Li Ge, the connection between this world and "YGGDRASIL" seems to be deeper than he imagined. look.

"What is the connection between this world and "YGGDRASIL"? "

"Besides me, who else is a player of "YGGDRASIL"? "

"Why are we suddenly transported to this world?"

Ainz threw these most essential questions at Rige.

This may be the biggest doubt in the mind of any player from "YGGDRASIL", right?

pity……

"These are all secrets related to the world, right?"

Li Ge's statement meant something, and Ainz understood what he meant.

"...What do I need to pay?"

Ainz asked in a deep voice.

He knew that this might be his only chance to come into contact with the secrets of this world.

If the connection between this world and "YGGDRASIL" is really that deep, and if many people in this world are aware of the player's existence, then his future course of action will have to be drastically changed.

This matter related to how the Great Underground Tomb of Nazarick would gain a foothold in this world in the future. It was so important that Ainz temporarily suppressed Shalltear's matter.

Under such circumstances, Li Ge spoke out like this.

"I told you right? I have a side job as an information merchant!"

Li Ge stretched out a hand to Ainz.

"Detailed information on magic."

"A rare and rare magic item."

"A rare treasure."

"That's all I want. It depends on whether you can afford it."

I still have a slight fever and am not very comfortable...
