Thinking of this, Deng Yougang had to admit that Bai Lang's free-spirited adventurer game actually allowed him to escape.

The world-class items did have the ability to hurt or even kill him. If they went directly to the Great Underground Tomb of Nazarick after entering this world, they might suffer a great loss in the face of the world-class items.

Just when Deng Yougang was feeling relieved, Bai Lang suddenly spoke.

"Gangzi, the flying squirrel jade you mentioned, is it a red gem?"

"..." Deng Yougang was stunned for a moment, then nodded subconsciously, "Yes!"

Bai Lang raised his hand with a strange expression, pointed ahead and said: "Then take a look, is this the thing..."

Deng Yougang came to his senses and turned his head quickly. He saw several shining lights in the charred crater in front of him that had been bombarded by the scarlet energy. They were the powerful items on the Bone King Ainz that had withstood the corrosion of the scarlet energy.

One of the gems was shining with red light, and it was exactly the same as the illustration of the [Flying Squirrel Jade] he had seen!

“…Wait, what’s going on?!”

Deng Yougang flew over quickly and picked up the red gem.

Bai Lang followed closely and said with a smile: "What else could it be? The equipment exploded!"

Deng Yougang shook his head, his face a little serious and said: "It's not that simple. Didn't I say it before? The Flying Squirrel Jade is the only special item among all world-class items that will bind to its holder. Even if the holder dies, as long as he is resurrected again, it will follow him instantly."

According to this statement, the fact that the Flying Squirrel Ball has not disappeared means that Ainz may not have been resurrected yet.

But how is this possible? Ainz carries a resurrection item with him, and it is a super rare krypton gold item that can instantly revive with full health and costs almost nothing.

This information was clearly written in the novel's setting, and Deng Yougang had already memorized it, so there was no way he could have remembered it wrong.

"Could it be... that the Void Cage blocked the spatial transfer of the [Flying Squirrel Jade]?"

Deng Yougang finally breathed a sigh of relief when he thought of this most likely scenario.

Next to him, Bai Lang was suspended in the air, looking at him with amusement and said, "Hey, what are you thinking about? Flying Squirrel Jade can't transfer space, of course it's because he's dead!"

Deng Yougang shook his head. "It's not that simple. From what I know, Ainz is not someone who can be defeated by just one death. He must have been resurrected in the Great Underground Tomb of Nazarick, and he may be exchanging our intelligence with Albedo right now."

"But it doesn't matter. We have greatly weakened his power. Not only have we destroyed a large number of artifact-level equipment and props, we have also intercepted world-class flying squirrel jade-"

Before he could finish, Deng Yougang's voice suddenly stopped.

He stared blankly at the translucent human soul beside Bai Lang.

This man had an ordinary Asian face and wore a blue suit, dressed like an ordinary white-collar worker, but his lifeless eyes were a little dim, as if he had not yet awakened from his chaotic consciousness.

Deng Yougang was stunned and asked, "Who... who is he?"

"Ainz's soul!" Bai Lang glanced at the soul of the human man beside him, and then said with a smile, "Didn't you ask me to put all the people in the capital into the Void Prison? So I did it, and by the way, I also took Ainz's soul in..."

"If what you said is true, Ainz has been resurrected, then who is he?"

There was a hint of sarcasm in Bai Lang's tone, but Deng Yougang didn't care.

He stared blankly at Suzuki Satoru's soul, as if he still couldn't believe the reality before him.

Was it really that the overlord Bone Overlord in the original novel who was invincible in seconds was defeated by them so easily?

Bai Lang smiled and patted Deng Yougang on the shoulder. He said with amusement, "Why are you so hesitant? Ainz and his guild may be really strong, but they are still no match for us two brothers, right?"

"What's more, I have Boss Lin's treasure in my hand. Isn't it much better than any world-class prop?"

"...That's right." Deng Yougang came back to his senses and nodded.

Bai Lang casually collected Suzuki Satoru's soul and asked with a smile, "What should we do next?"

Deng Yougang calmed himself down and turned to look at the rays of light in the charred crater: "Put away these rare items that we have seized, and then find a place to release the people in the void cage!"

"How am I going to explain myself after I'm released?"

"You can explain it however you want, or just walk away without explaining."

"That won't do. At least let me pretend for once!"

"It's up to you!"

"…What about you?"

Hearing Bai Lang's smiling words, Deng Yougang turned his gaze to the inverted silver light shield not far away.

"Brother Fengxian hasn't finished fighting yet. I have to at least wait for him, or help him decide the winner, before I can leave, right?"

"That's right." Bai Lang nodded, and then said with emotion, "Boss, this treasure is really strong. Your scarlet breath can even corrode the artifact-level equipment in this world, but it can't shake this silver light shield at all."

"I doubt it. Even if the planet beneath our feet is completely destroyed, this Hulao Pass Fighting General Barrier will still exist!"

After flattering Boss Lin, Bai Lang immediately jumped up, intending to find a place to release all the people in the void cage.

Just after Bai Lang left for a while, the flying squirrel jade in Deng Yougang's hand suddenly trembled, and then disappeared in an instant.

At this time, Deng Yougang was using the connection between himself and Lu Bu to spy on the battle situation in the barrier. By the time he reacted, the red gem he had obtained had completely disappeared.

"…What's going on?"

Deng Yougang's pupils suddenly shrank, and then his face changed slightly. He jumped up and turned into a stream of light and rushed to where Bai Lang was.

At this time, Bai Lang had released the residents of the royal capital from the void cages in batches.

All the Blue Rose members, including Irubiai, as well as Princess Lana, guard Climb, warrior Gazef and others, were also released back to the square where they had gathered before.

After regaining their mobility, many people collapsed to the ground as if exhausted.

Irubiai hugged the plush teddy bear tightly, her body trembling slightly, as if she was still immersed in the feeling of powerlessness caused by being confined by space just now.

Looking at the expressions of the crowd, some of them were terrified, some of them had survived a disaster, Bai Lang couldn't help feeling a little embarrassed.

He was only thinking about saving everyone's lives, but he forgot what a terrifying place the void cage was for humans.

It was a solidified world where one could not move, breathe, have a heartbeat, or escape. In this entire world, only the soul and mind could function, apart from the holder.

In addition, even the light is solidified by space, and without the vision of the soul, nothing can be seen at all.

"I didn't think it through... Never mind, I'll stop pretending!"

Bai Lang sighed, then waved his hand, and nuclear energy surged out. In the simplest and crudest way, he released a small spell that could make people forget their recent memories.

Of course, even a small spell, in Bai Lang's hands, is enough to cover all human species in the entire royal capital.

In just a moment, the eyes of everyone in the square became confused.

Bai Lang looked at them silently and was about to turn around and leave when he suddenly looked up at the sky in surprise.

Deng Yougang flew over at high speed, ignoring everyone's gazes, and asked anxiously, "Where is Ainz's soul?"

Bai Lang was stunned for a moment, then he checked the crystal ball and frowned, "It's still there, what's wrong?"

Deng Yougang's expression changed for a while, and then he slowly exhaled and said in a deep voice: "The flying squirrel jade disappeared."

"……ah?"

Bai Lang's face was full of surprise.

Deng Yougang explained in detail: "After you left, the effect of the space blockade disappeared, and the flying squirrel jade was teleported away."

Bai Lang frowned and asked, "Who did it?"

Deng Yougang asked back: "Who else could it be?"

Bai Lang's eyes widened as he asked, "You mean, Ainz has been resurrected?"

As he said this, he flipped his hand and took out Suzuki Satoru's soul, frowning and asking in confusion: "But if he has been resurrected... then who is this?"

The two looked at each other, both faces full of confusion and puzzlement.

After a little thought, Deng Yougang turned his head and looked at Suzuki Satoru's soul.

"Let's find a place to ask him!"

Bai Lang nodded and said, "Okay!"

The next moment, amid the hesitant gazes of everyone in the square, the two of them soared into the sky and disappeared into the horizon.

…

…

The Great Underground Tomb of Nazarick.

An amorphous, pitch-black, ancient slime stood in the magnificent hall.

On the circular magic circle in front of him, a tall skeleton that had lost all its equipment stood there, and two scarlet lights suddenly bloomed in its dark eye sockets.

The next second, a tall skeleton stepped out of the magic circle, stood in front of the dark ancient slime and looked at him.

Suddenly, the skeleton opened its mouth, shook its body with magic power, and let out an incomparably happy laugh.

The dark ancient slime that looked like a slime also kept changing its appearance, and the same hearty laughter came from its body.

At this moment, a green light lit up on the skeleton, and the passive skill [Forced Calmness] suppressed his joy and happiness.

After being forced to calm down, the resurrected Ainz said calmly, "Now I finally understand Suzuki Satoru's feelings. This forced calmness is indeed not a good skill. It will suppress and even distort the humanity of the soul in this body."

Fortunately, he doesn't care about human nature, and it can even be said that he has abandoned these things long ago.

The dark ancient slime 'Kurokuro' on the opposite side smiled and said, "Alright, stop sighing and tell me what to do next. If I'm not mistaken, the ones who killed Suzuki Satoru should be the ones who forced me to kill myself, right?"

"Yes, it must be them."

Ainz, or rather the Lord God’s Ainz, nodded.

Kurohuro whispered, "You now occupy Suzuki Satoru's body. The Great Tomb of Nazarick is now completely ours. Do you want to take out all the world-class items and have all the NPCs in Nazarick prepare for battle?"
