Bone King: Homemade plug-in, I am the god of destiny Chapter 188

“Albedo, I’ll leave the containment to you!”

Ainz finally reacted, shouting out a reminder the moment Renas and Albedo finished their rapid offense and defense.

Although it was sudden, he hadn’t completely failed to anticipate such a possibility.

In the open cavern where the Bug Nest was located, he had already set up numerous magic traps, and strengthened magic had also been cast on himself in advance.

Since the opponent wanted to fight, then… fight!

“Maximize Magic: Widen Magic – Death Orb!”

The magic circle unfolding above his head spewed a concentrated surge of negative energy, precisely grazing Albedo’s shoulder by thirty centimeters and directly impacting Renas, who was preparing to close in.

The distance between them was very close, making it likely difficult to dodge.

Fortunately, Renas’s reaction wasn’t slow. She raised her left arm to guard herself, and a holy light shield instantly formed.

The Death Orb slammed into the light shield. Although it couldn’t break through the divine protection, it still easily knocked Renas back nearly ten meters.

A seasoned magic caster wouldn’t give their enemy a chance to breathe.

Taking advantage of Renas’s unsteady footing, Ainz continued to unleash powerful attack magic, “Maximize Magic: Gravity Maelstrom!”

A pitch-black sphere flew towards her, the super-gravity distortion it contained sending shivers down one’s spine.

Warriors often found themselves in a passive situation when fighting magic casters because, until their MP ran out, a magic caster’s attacks wouldn’t cease. Furthermore, magic casters had numerous defensive and displacement abilities, allowing for highly flexible combat choices.

However, Renas wasn’t just a warrior; she could also use magic.

“Summon Light Lion!”

A lion, radiating holy light, leaped out from a magic circle, directly charging the magic sphere of the Gravity Maelstrom.

The moment they collided, the magic sphere erupted in powerful rotation, as if to engulf and shred the Light Lion whole.

Yet, the holy light on the Light Lion formed an energy protective layer, continuously resisting the magic sphere’s distorting force, ultimately successfully enduring the attack.

Renas was not surprised by this.

During previous training, Han Yu had frequently summoned corresponding mercenary monsters as their combat training opponents to familiarize them with the combat abilities of the Great Tomb’s master and servant.

[Gravity Maelstrom], [Thousand Bone Spears], [Severing Slash]… these spells that Ainz might be very proficient in or particularly fond of using, she had witnessed countless times.

While the power of these spells might fluctuate due to individual attribute strengths, their general effects would certainly not deviate too much.

In no less than fifty practice sessions, the sacred beasts summoned using the special skill of the high-tier job class [Holy Beast Knight] had perfectly blocked the [Gravity Maelstrom] released by the mercenary monsters every single time.

Now it’s my turn to counterattack.

Renas’s eyes locked onto Ainz and Albedo, the master and servant.

Albedo was clearly assigned the role of a frontline guard. To attack Ainz behind her, her actions had to be contained first.

The Glorious Archangels who had followed her had all charged towards the master and servant the moment Ainz launched his attack. It was for this reason that Ainz’s subsequent magical attacks landed on the Glorious Archangels.

Angel summons around LV 53 were no different from cannon fodder in front of Ainz and Albedo; they were existences that could be wiped out with ease.

Therefore, to form sufficient containment power, higher-level summons were needed.

“Tenth-Tier Angel Summon!”

“Heroic Spirit Soul!”

Renas unhesitatingly used another summoning skill. A Judgement Cherub of LV 70 and a Heroic Warrior with similar attributes appeared one after another, cooperating with the Light Lion to advance on three fronts, charging towards Ainz and Albedo from the left, center, and right!

As for herself…

The Champion’s Spear was gripped tightly in both hands. A white luminescence immediately spread across the spear shaft, continuously emitting terrifying spatial fluctuations.

“Ainz-sama! Please be careful!”

“I know!”

Albedo stood ready, holding her greatshield and battle axe.

As the Light Lion ran, it opened its maw and fired an energy blast. It struck Albedo’s kite shield but seemed to cause little damage; it couldn’t even make Albedo budge.

This wasn’t because the Light Lion was too weak, but because as a defensive warrior, Albedo could significantly reduce the damage she received after using her defensive skill, [Holy Shield].

The Heroic Warrior followed closely behind the energy blast, charging towards Albedo. Its simulated Champion’s Spear thrust like lightning at the kite shield, the powerful force numbing Albedo’s shield-holding arm.

However, the attack was ultimately blocked.

The Judgement Cherub dashed past the Heroic Warrior, about to follow up with an attack on Albedo, but was repelled by a sudden attack the moment it swung its holy sword!

Roar!

The Ruin King, exuding a terrifying aura, charged out from behind Albedo. Under the enhancement of its special skill that increased combat power as its stamina decreased, it easily suppressed the Judgement Cherub, which was of the same level, by wielding its war scythe.

An undead summon, its origin was naturally self-evident.

Seeing the Ruin King assist Albedo in blocking the enemy’s high-level summons’ collective charge, Ainz also breathed a sigh of relief and redirected his attention to Renas.

Then, he witnessed a shocking scene.

Renas swept the Champion’s Spear like a long blade, and a terrifying spatial cutting energy blade immediately shot out, sweeping towards the two of them!

…

Hmm!?

His closed eyes suddenly opened. Han Yu’s gaze locked onto the nearby gap in the Great Tomb, and the corner of his mouth imperceptibly curled upwards.

He had become familiar with this feeling many times before; there was no mistaking it.

So, in the first instant, he turned to look at High Priest Raymond and Shalltear behind him, saying, “Gentlemen, I have some unfortunate news to tell you. Casualties have occurred among the personnel who entered the Great Tomb for reconnaissance.”

What!?

Raymond and Shalltear’s hearts tightened upon hearing this news. They quickly pressed, “Your Eminence, what happened?”

“I’m not clear on the specifics, but I can sense that five of them have died. This is beyond doubt.”

Han Yu briefly explained to Raymond and Shalltear the special connection that existed between him and his dependents—to be precise, the bond between the [Divinity of the God of Fate] and his dependents. Through the effect of this item, he could ascertain the survival status of each dependent and freely decide whether to resurrect deceased dependents.

Transforming an ordinary human into a dependent was an incredible feat in itself, so Raymond and Shalltear had no doubts about the news Han Yu shared, and their expressions immediately turned grim.

Han Yu subtly shifted his gaze, locking onto Shalltear, who was gripping her war scythe. He said, “The remaining people should still be struggling. I intend to enter the Great Tomb to rescue them. What about you two?”

Upon hearing this, Raymond and Shalltear exchanged glances and immediately made their decision, “We naturally follow your arrangements.”

Seeing how sensible they were, Han Yu secretly nodded with satisfaction.

“Then let’s go.”
