Since anime can`t really show the real power of "The Goal Of All Life Is Death", here you go: that skills allows Ainz to enhance any skill or spell of instant death to a degree that those ignore any Instant death immunity and since the lore of the game turned real in this world, it even kills things that are not alive to begin with, such as Air and Ground, and thats why the place became like that.
I would like to add that in exchange for making the next instant death spell bypass immunities, it makes it have a 12 second delay, which is what the clock on Ainz back is meant to represent.
@@jenjenhocho3188 nope, it is a skill that buffs all instant death spells and skills, Ainz in a side story(another timeline ainz) even used it with la shub niggurath to evaporate around 5 million zombies.
So theres a lot about this episode that is really cool. Im sure your patreon subs have already explained some or all of this but I'd like to go over it just incase. So the big thing with Ainz is that he is basically running a silly theme build he made for fun rather that a super optimised build. Hes still damn strong and has a great tactical mind for combat but in terms fo actual combat power he wasnt the strongest in the guild. The way building a character works in the ydrassil game is that they can put levels into classes or races and, with heteromorphic races like the ones the guild members had to be having way more options for race levels than the more human races. The classes it shows on the character sheet from the light novel show Ainz having 15 levels in the ekeleton mage race, 10 levels in the elder lich race, 5 levels in the overlord race, 10 levels in necromancer class and 10 levels in the ruler of death class, then the rest of his levels arent shown but he has a total of 40 levels in races and 60 in classes. The Overlord race levels are important because Ainz pretty much stumbled accross it accidentally, with its unlock requirements being pretty much Ainz' exact build that he had chosen for the fun factor rather than power. The earliest level overlord can be taken at is 96 so it maxes out at level 5 and character level 100. Level 5 Overlord gave him access to the "the goal of all life is death" skill which, after a 12 second delay, will cause any instadeath skill to completely bypass any and all resistances, he used that in conjunction with a widened cry of the banshee to instakill everything, including shalltear who would normally be immune to instant death. Whats really cool is that, because its an actual world instead of a game, the skill + spell combination killed EVERYTHING within range, down to the microsctopic level, which is why the whole area around them turned into a desert devoid of any life. Its not visible but even the air itself is dead so if something living were to wander in right now they would just keel over dead themselves. Its all still cool visually and works devoid of the light novels context but I adore all the extra detail and stuff the light novel gives into how the original game was played and worked.
"The goal of all life is death" is a skill unique to one of the highest character class "overlord." The skill allows the user to enhance an instant death spell so that it can not be resisted. Ainz paired the skill with the instant death spell "cry of the banshee," which he further enhanced with "widen magic" to increase its range. "Cry of the banshee" kills everything that is inside its area of effect. Since cry of the banshee kills everything and was so enhanced by the goal of all life is death, even inanimate objects "died," which is why everything turned to sand.
@@Xeno_Solarus depend of how you intend to play it though, ainz is more of a roleplayer guy so his build isnt min/maxed or optimised for combat at all x)

No, it doesnt. The custom npcs like shalltear are made in a similar method as players, if a player were to copy her exact build, they'd actually be stronger since they would have access to super tier magic
@@-Apoptos-The thing is, Shalltear was made specifically to counter players, using guild points (and an extra bit from Peroroncino and co) to be a proper replacement for an existing floor boss in Nazarick, which Ainz Ooal Gown members killed while raiding the Tomb. So it’s not your ordinary Player, or NPC. If a Player were to copy Shalltear’s build, they would end up in the top of middle tier. If S is highest, and F is lowest, her build sits comfortably at B+. But since she’s an NPC and a Floor Guardian (i.e. a boss), she has more raw stats, which takes a full Party of players to take down. She alone killed approximately 50+ players (albeit not all were lvl100), in the Raid against Nazarick. It is debatable if a player with the similar build, but having access to super tier magic would make a more powerful guild, since Shalltear is not your ordinary NPC. Nigredo is a very good benchmark here: she is, just, literally, a lvl90-95 player without access to super tier magic. She is literally built as a specialist with the abilities and skills that a player can achieve. But Shalltear isn’t your average NPC. She is the second strongest being and the third strongest force in Nazarick - a base which completely annihilated 1500 players raid. The only entities that compare to Shalltear are: 1. A literal game breaking cheat code of an NPC, Rubedo and… 2. The whole floor of beings so ruthless, that armed with proper equipment, can take on said Rubedo. TLDR: Shalltear isn’t an average NPC, she’s a Raidboss, whom should be taken on by, at least, a party of players. She was made with the means beyond ordinary available. She would mop anyone in Nazarick. And, if equipped with proper items, she would end up in the A tier.

In the game, there is a spell limit. But Ainz's build allows him to learn more. In total, he knows over 700 spells. Also, if I remember correctly, regarding Ainz's strength compared to other top players, he is nowhere near the strongest. They explained in the LN that Ainz's character was not built especially for combat but for roleplay. He's still strong, just not optimized for combat.
All we have to rely on is Ainz who is a dubious narrator when discussing his strength since he tends to under appreciate himself. Ainz may not be near the strongest in terms of pure power, but because of his build and intelligence, he can give even Touch Me, a world champion, trouble
His method of winning PvP was to get best 2 of 3 wins by losing the first fight and adapting to win the other 2. Kind of bad when he doesn't know if he can come back to life if he dies.
Of all of the enemies that are shown in the anime Shalltear is probably the only fight that Ainz actually goes all out on. Never read the light novel, but i imagine that this is how the usual pvp in the game Ygdrassil.
