Powerful? Naturally, it is very powerful, because it involves causality, involves rules, and even, to some extent, this move is also a move that can truly kill Roa.
But Roa was not flustered at this moment, and was full of anticipation for this move.
The law of death, he wants to master this skill!
The clock did not move fast, it could even be described as very slow.
However, the clock had already completed most of its journey. Ainz had used a cash shop item to accelerate the release speed of this skill.
A strong sense of foreboding rose in Roa's heart. Roa's eyes were extremely sharp, staring intently at the clock behind Ainz.
Roa did not have many instant death resistance skills, and Roa did not think that he could withstand Ainz's ultimate move head-on.
After all, this was a powerful ability that could ignore anyone's instant death resistance, causing all beings to suffer instant death and die instantly.
Death was like a shadow, silently emerging, lurking in the dark, watching Roa. That ominous premonition grew stronger as the clock ticked, but the youth's pair of brilliant dragon eyes shone brightly.
"I feel it."
"The law of death."
Fool's Second Stage allows Roa to have the means to decipher any magic. For ordinary magic, Roa can easily master it and understand its principles with just a glance.
Even for super-tier magic, as long as Roa carefully observes the entire process of the opponent's magic release, he can quickly understand it and steal the opponent's magic.
And at this moment, Ainz fully demonstrated "The Goal of All Life is Death" in front of Roa, and the target was Roa himself. Being in the effect of this magic, he thoroughly understood this killing move from the inside out.
At this moment, he did not feel afraid or terrified because of the shadow of death shrouded in his heart. Roa only felt unprecedented joy.
"Come on, let me see how strong your magic is!"
The corners of Roa's mouth turned up, with a playful smile.
Faced with such a youth, Ainz's eyes flashed with a hint of viciousness and anger.
"You asked for this!"
Ainz almost gritted his teeth to say these words.
If an ordinary person wants to crack "The Goal of All Life is Death", they can only use some means to strike before the clock behind Ainz finishes ticking, forcibly interrupting the skill.
This is also a measure taken by the game to limit the skill "The Goal of All Life is Death".
After all, instant death type skills are too terrifying. Once successfully released, they can ignore the opponent's health and defense, killing with one blow.
Of course, this magic is not without a solution.
One way to withstand this skill head-on is to use resurrection items.
Since instant death takes effect, just resurrect once.
The boundary between life and death in this world is very vague. The dead can be resurrected, and the living can be transformed into undead creatures.
Therefore, the easiest way to deal with this skill is to wear precious resurrection items or use magic with delayed activation and resurrection effects, so that you can be resurrected immediately after death.
This way, you can directly withstand this magic killing move.
But it is clear that although Roa has mastered resurrection magic, those sixth-tier and even seventh-tier resurrection magic are not enough to revive the soul of someone as powerful as Roa.
The stronger the resurrected person, the greater the price that must be paid. This is the greatest limitation of resurrection skills.
Resurrection skills are not feasible, and Roa does not have resurrection items in his hand, which means that once Ainz's skill is successfully activated, Roa cannot withstand it head-on.
The clock behind Ainz finally completed all its journey in one second.
And in order to prevent Roa from escaping the range of "The Goal of All Life is Death", the other guardians also took action.
"Delay Teleportation!"
"Dimensional Lock!"
Both of these skills have the effect of strengthening space and preventing opponents from escaping through space-type skills.
This also thwarted Roa's idea of using space teleportation to leave this place.
Not to mention, Roa really intended to use space movement to directly escape the range of Ainz's ultimate move.
He didn't want to compare with Ainz to see if his body was stronger or the opponent's instant death magic was stronger.
Ainz's instant death magic is indeed powerful, but after all, it is not a causal skill. Although the range is large, it still has a fixed range.
As long as Roa can escape this range, he can ignore this magic. This was Roa's initial plan.
But it is clear that this plan failed. Ainz is not an idiot. He also knows that Roa has space-type movement magic in his hand. After all, these movement-type magic were taught by Ainz himself.
Therefore, everyone naturally has means to interfere with the skills in Roa's hand.
When the hour hand pointed to the last moment, Roa still remained in place. Ainz's face already showed a smile of victory.
Ainz's strongest killing move - "The Goal of All Life is Death" was successfully activated!
At this moment, the sky became dark and gloomy, the world was a gray and hazy, and all light and heat disappeared without a trace.
The air became deathly silent, the world lost its original color, and turned into a black and white painting style.
This is not the end of the world, but the destruction of the world.
This area, the area covered by Ainz's skill, was completely 'dead'.
The distance of two hundred meters covered in all directions was dying.
Mosquitoes, birds, beasts, or other things were dying.
Their bodies turned into dust, scattered in the air, and then quickly disappeared without a trace.
The death rules applied to this area were so strong that all tangible or intangible creatures were dying.
The wind was killed, the air was killed, and even the earth was killed.
This area became a completely vacuum zone.
Dust continued to float in the air, and the gray-white color was all that this world had.
This terrifying skill, even Albedo, who can withstand three super-tier magic head-on, would be instantly killed without any room for resistance if she did not escape this desperate cage in time.
Even Shalltear, who has the Time Reverse skill, would not even have time to use the skill and would die here completely.
This is a forbidden zone for life, there is nothing 'alive' here.
This is "The Goal of All Life is Death"!
The remaining three guardians had long disappeared. This powerful killing move does not distinguish between friend and foe. Except for Ainz himself, everyone else would be killed.
For this reason, after intercepting and blocking Roa, the three guardians quickly used means to leave the battlefield.
According to reason, Roa, who does not have resurrection items, cannot withstand this magic at all.
However, there are always many accidents in this world.
Ainz's eyes stared intently at that gray-white world.
That world did not have Roa's figure.
Roa was not there at all.
The night wind began to pour into this dead world, the death energy began to be diluted, and this desperate world began to emit vitality again.
A dull loud noise came from behind Ainz. This was a trap he had set up around him, which could explode and cause a lot of damage to prevent enemies from appearing around him.
But it is clear that this trap did not cause much damage to Roa.
Ainz turned his head and looked behind him. A youth was standing behind him at some point.
The youth was expressionless, his crimson-gold dragon eyes were extremely indifferent, and his handsome features only had an unchanging calmness.
From the youth, he felt a deep sense of powerlessness. The battle seemed to have never exceeded his expectations.
Ainz floated in mid-air, the cool night wind made his heart feel cold, his gaze stayed on the youth in front of him, Ainz opened his mouth with great difficulty and said, "How did you do it?"
Roa looked expressionlessly at the tall and mighty skeleton in front of him, and slowly opened his mouth and said, "What's the harm in telling you? I have two skills. The first skill is called 'Moment', which can accelerate my own time flow. As for how much it can be accelerated, I won't tell you."
"The second skill is called 'Time Zero', which can accelerate the time speed of the objects around me."
"I said that, you should understand why you can't beat me, right? You don't even know what skills I have, and you still want to beat me?"
As soon as these words came out, Ainz fell into silence. He began to recall the scene that had just happened, but unfortunately, he could not observe Roa's figure, and he did not know what had happened just now.
At the moment when the hour hand pointed to twelve o'clock, this powerful 'magic' had already been activated, and Roa had already taken action.
Whether it was the Word Soul Moment or the Word Soul Time Zero, both skills were related to time. Ainz's use of the tenth-tier magic, Time Stop, made Roa's eyes light up and gave him a new understanding of the laws of time.
Ainz's magic is certainly powerful, but after all, it is not a causal magic. Even if the range is large, there is still a fixed range.
If he wants to kill Roa by this means, Ainz either has to be faster than Roa, or simply pause time and then use his killing move.
However, Ainz's tenth-tier magic cannot allow him to use "The Goal of All Life is Death" after pausing time.
Therefore, from the beginning, Ainz was not Roa's opponent at all. Killing Roa was simply an impossible thing.
Having understood this, Ainz sighed and said in a helpless voice, "Information, yes, I lack too much information, but there is no way, because you have already come to my door. If you could give me more information, things would not have turned out like this."
As he spoke, Ainz smiled bitterly again, with a somewhat dejected meaning: "Besides, even if I know your two skills, what can I do?"
Roa did not speak again, but the long sword in his left hand had already been raised.
This sword, called the Sword of Piercing Truth, has unparalleled sharpness, and this characteristic has reached its peak under the infusion of Roa's Divine Power.
"Although I'm sorry to say this, but this time, I still have to teach you a lesson, right?"
The black knight sword did not hesitate at all, and directly slashed at Ainz's body.
Several rays of light appeared on Ainz's body again, but these rays of light were directly torn apart by Restia. The black knight long sword did not have any accidents, and directly pierced Ainz's body in an instant.
Roa did not stop, and the knight sword in his right hand was raised again, a brilliant light flowing on the silver-white sword body, emitting a divine aura.
Ainz offered no resistance, simply gazing quietly at Roa with a serene expression.
Roa met Ainz's gaze, looking into those golden eyes, Ainz felt as though his every thought was being laid bare.
In the end, the Demon Slaying Holy Sword struck Ainz, rendering all his defenses useless. Finally, Ainz's HP reached zero, and his body began to dissipate.
Ainz's heart was at peace, but Roa's next words caused his pupils to contract.
"I know you have more tricks up your sleeve, but it doesn't matter. I'll come find you later."
Ainz, defeated!
The supreme leader of the Great Tomb of Nazarick, who had faced Roa with four guardians, was left with two dead, three crippled, and forced to flee in disarray.
Roa exhaled a breath of stale air, his gaze returning to the devastated land, his crimson-gold eyes gradually calming.
The night breeze rustled Roa's long hair as he looked at a certain spot on the ground, he slowly walked over and sighed.
There lay a corpse, a female corpse, and only that one.
Clearly, the owner of this corpse was the girl named Zesshi Zetsumei, now lying quietly on the ground, motionless.
Their group had ultimately failed to endure.
Although all of Ainz's skills were aimed at Roa, unfortunately, even the aftereffects were too much for Zesshi Zetsumei and her companions to withstand.
Ainz released "Cry of the Banshee," intentionally amplifying the skill's range, hoping to eliminate the Slane Theocracy group even if he couldn't kill Roa.
As the last guardian of humanity and the Slane Theocracy's trump card, even the so-called Zesshi Zetsumei had no means to counter instant death effects.
Although she possessed a weakened version of Ainz's ultimate move, mastering an instant death skill and being able to counter one were entirely different matters.
Roa could withstand "Cry of the Banshee" head-on, but the Slane Theocracy group was wiped out, with only Zesshi Zetsumei's corpse remaining, while the others were reduced to ashes, leaving no trace.
