Chapter 610
Michelle and the other five moved quickly, withdrawing their troops as soon as they said they would. When the news reached Arthur and Ainz, Arthur was relieved.
"It seems that I persuaded them to withdraw so quickly."
"As the old saying goes, a man of insight is a hero. They can't even get one magic crystal from their gods in a month, so why are they playing with their lives?" Ainz said with a matter-of-fact look on his face.
"Okay, Your Majesty, since they have withdrawn their troops, we should act according to the original plan. They should know the benefits of joining the Federation of All Worlds by now. If we don't act quickly, the market of the Bright Continent will be theirs."
"Okay! But how do we do it specifically?" Arthur said with a little confusion.
"It's very simple, just cross the river by feeling the stones. Our Bright Continent and the Abyss have the same system. We should develop in the same way as the Abyss did. It would be even better if we could go to the Abyss to investigate. Unfortunately, there is no high-speed rail between the two worlds yet."
As soon as Ainz finished speaking, Arthur seemed to have thought of something.
"I have a way!"
"What is it?"
"My dear Ainz, just follow me."
After saying this, Arthur led Ainz to the depths of the palace, and then led him into a dungeon.
When they reached the depths of the dungeon, an extremely complex magic circle appeared in the middle of the dungeon.
There was also a giant sword inserted in the core of the magic circle.
Seeing this, Ainz couldn't help but show a hint of curiosity on his face.
"What is this?"
"This is a magic circle that seals the passage to the abyss, set up by the goddess of elements. Below is the passage from the abyss to the bright continent. As long as I pull out the sword in the stone in the middle of the magic circle, I can open the passage between the abyss and the bright continent."
Hearing Arthur's words, Ainz's eyes lit up instantly.
"Isn't this smuggling?"
"Smuggling?"
"Yes, entering other planes without going through the immigration office is considered smuggling in the Federation of All Worlds, but it shouldn't matter here, after all, there is no immigration office in the Bright Continent."
"Hurry up and open the seal, let's go to the Abyss now." Ainz said impatiently.
But Arthur hesitated at this time.
"If the seal is opened, the Abyss will be connected to the Bright Continent again. We paid a huge price to drive those Abyss demons back to the Abyss."
"If those Abyss demons notice that the passage between the two worlds is open, they will definitely return to the Bright Continent again."
But when he said these words, he didn't notice the strange look of Ainz beside him.
"Hmm? What are you worried about? Are you worried that the Abyss Demons will run to the Bright Continent?"
"What are they doing here? Are they here to reminisce about the good old days? Are they here to experience farm life? Are they here to visit their poor relatives? Are they here to show off their wealth?"
"If you are worried that they will come here to show off their wealth, then you should be worried. After all, the number of rich people in the Abyss Demons is second only to that in the Tianyuan Continent. People in the Bright Continent will inevitably feel unbalanced when they see them."
"Also, I don't think you need to worry too much, because once they notice the existence of this passage, they will definitely block it faster than we do."
"Why?" Arthur said with a puzzled look on his face.
"Of course, I am worried that you people from the Bright Continent will illegally immigrate to the Abyss. If you run over there to wash dishes, the Goblins will be out of work. And to put it bluntly, the quality of people in the Bright Continent is generally low now, and it will affect their public security if you go there."
Arthur:......
After all this time, he is trying too hard to be above his station.
"Okay, Your Majesty, go and pull out the Sword in the Stone. Remember to pull it out quietly. Don't let the other side find out. It will be troublesome if they block us when we come back."
Hearing what Ainz said, Arthur immediately walked to the center of the magic circle with a complicated expression, and then put his hand on the hilt of the Sword in the Stone.
As he gently pulled out the Sword in the Stone, the magic circle on the ground slowly lit up, and then a passage appeared in front of the two.
Seeing this passage, Ainz's face showed excitement again.
"Your Majesty, this time when we go to the abyss, I have to take you to investigate it carefully. Only by seeing it with your own eyes can you face the gap."
"Let's go."
After saying that, he jumped into the passage first, and Arthur followed closely behind.
At the same time, the goddess of elements who was far away in the divine world suddenly felt something.
"What's going on? The seal of the abyss passage has loosened. Could it be that the demons from the abyss are coming again?"
"More than a thousand years have passed, and those damn demons are still coveting the Bright Continent."
"I have to ask Arthur."
After saying that, she stood up and walked towards her temple, and sent an oracle to Arthur through her statue.
Arthur, who used to respond immediately, did not respond for a long time, and she could not even sense Arthur's existence.
"What's going on? Is Arthur not in the Bright Continent? Or has he led his army into the abyss?"
"Forget it, wait a little longer. If he doesn't respond again, I can only go and see it myself."
The same thing happened in the temple of the Goddess of Light at this moment.
Just now, the Goddess of Light also sensed that the seal she had set up had loosened, but when she wanted to contact Michelle, Michelle was not in the service area.
Her first reaction was to think that Michelle had led people to the abyss.
"Very good, he has already taken the initiative to enter the abyss in order to spread my faith. He is indeed a qualified pope."
"Though the quality of those abyss demons is not as high as that of the human race in the Bright Continent, they are numerous. If I can develop them into my believers, my divine power will definitely be greatly enhanced."
The Goddess of Light is very much looking forward to this.
......
In a park somewhere in the Golden City of the Abyss Special Economic Zone, with a wave of space fluctuations, two figures appeared out of thin air. They were Arthur and Ainz who sneaked from the Bright Continent to the Abyss through the plane channel.
As soon as they appeared, they looked around.
As soon as Arthur looked up, he saw the high-rise buildings in front of him, which were full of sci-fi and futuristic colors.
There are also space pipelines connecting the high-rise buildings, and a large number of various flying cars shuttle between them.
In addition, there are various building facade advertisements, virtual projection advertisements and various forms of light shows.
The small city park where they were was filled with birdsong, flowers and green trees, and street lamps and trash cans full of art can be seen everywhere.
The music fountain not far ahead sprayed towering water columns while emitting bursts of beautiful music.
Occasionally, you can see demon children playing and fighting in it.
Even though he had seen some videos related to the Abyss on TikTok, he was still shocked when such a scene really appeared in front of him.
Now he finally understood what Ainz said before coming to the Abyss.
The Abyss really had no reason to invade the Bright Continent. Did they invade to help the poor?
Just as Arthur was in a daze, Ainz's voice came from the side.
"Let's go, Your Majesty. This is a place for children to play. It's not interesting. I'll take you to a place where adults should go to play."
"A place where adults should go?" Hearing these words, Arthur instantly became interested.
"Yes, demons under 180 years old are not allowed to enter."
"Is it so strict? It seems that place must be fun."
"Of course it is fun. I can't wait."
"Hearing you say that, I can't wait too!"
At this time, Ainz took out his mobile phone, opened the ferry map and typed in the word "Internet cafe".
At the same time, several figures appeared in the sewers in the Dark City.
