The Great Villain of Comprehensive Man

Time flies, more than twenty days seem to have passed in the blink of an eye!

Not to mention the actual situation of "Sword Art Online" outside, the situation in the SAO game is slightly different from the original plot of "Sword Art Online".

In the town of Beginning, many players who come and go have put on new equipment instead of the novice equipment before, but compared to these brave men, more players still wear novice equipment and shrink in the beginning. The town, at all, did not risk death at any time, run to the safe starting town to take risks, put one's hope completely outside the rescue operation, and save oneself out of this life-death game.

Of course, these guys are similar to the original plot of the SAO chapter of "Sword Art Online". In just a few days, they fell into the dilemma of running out of the last Col-as the first fully sneaked virtual game, the degree of satiety and There are related settings for fatigue. Players are hungry but need to eat and drink!

In the town of Beginning, drinking water is a free thing. The cheapest brown bread that tastes as good as the wood slag, but in addition to the occasional daily gift from the temple, at least 1 kel is required for purchase.

Although it is said that no matter how hungry in the SAO game, people will not starve to death, but the feeling of hunger is definitely uncomfortable, and it is not something that pampered modern people can bear.Not to mention, after being fed for more than three days, there will automatically be a negative state of [hunger] on the character attribute panel, reducing the negative state of [hunger] of all attributes by 10%, so that those originally Players who did not go out of the original town to fight became less courageous, and even began to appear guys begging to other players-similarly, other players who don't have much spare money don't have a good face for such beggars. It's one of the few!

However, compared to the original plot of the SAO chapter of "Sword Art Online", this time period is said to have changed the most. It should be the black metal monument erected in the town of Beginning!

From the first self-death that claimed to be able to withdraw from the SAO game after death. After the player appeared, this black metal monument appeared in the central square of the town of Beginning, and the one directly found a place to jump off Aincrad The special player, because of the first cause of death [falling from a high altitude], was remembered on this black metal monument.

However, compared with the original SAO, more than 2,000 players were eliminated in the first month. In the current more than 20 days, only seven people have died on the black metal monument due to various reasons. There are more than a hundred in number, and a small half of them are all kinds of players who can't bear the pressure to commit suicide. The rest of the players who died in battle were mostly caused by deaths in the first ten days. In the following ten days, those who dared to fight The death toll has dropped drastically.

As for the reason?

Of course, it was Maureen, the traverser. On the next day, he informed all the players in the starting town that after the open beta of the SAO game, the inner version was re-updated, and many inner tasks and monster areas were made. For news such as adjustments, players are advised not to trust their own experience too much, nor to act recklessly.

Under Maureen’s prompt reminder, in the original SAO plot, the number of casualties of those who used to be closed beta dropped drastically, and someone suggested that players team up from the first novice monster, and other suggestions After being heard by many people, those surviving closed beta players and brave players also have a more reliable action plan for killing monsters-at least, they are silly to run out at night to single out those who have changed from passive to passive. Taking the initiative to attack monsters, or even a reduction in reckless actions by one person running out to try to fight monsters, the consequence is that the number of players who die is greatly reduced. Not to mention, Maureen and his newly established [Star Flame] Guild will help those young Players, the reputation is soaring!

However, the clouds that hung over the town of Beginning are still there, because now, after almost a month of exploration time, players still have not broken the simplest first layer...

………………

Aincrad, the maze area on the first floor.

This is said to be the maze area where the Boss of the first layer is located. The area above is comparable to the size of an ordinary city. Moreover, for the current players, the monsters refreshed are definitely not easy enemies that can be dealt with, even the inside players. Searching according to the memory, it was impossible to find the Boss in the obviously changed maze.

However, after a joint team of dozens of players stepped into the labyrinth area, even the Boss room, which was difficult to find in the original SAO plot, was found under a carpet search!

"Look! Is that the boss's place?!"

When a player holding an epee beheaded a goblin in front of him, he suddenly saw a palace with a magnificent appearance from the turning labyrinth passage. He was taken aback and couldn't help shouting loudly.

"Really...yes! It should be where the first-tier boss is located!"

"Great!"

"We found this hiding boss!"...

The players who had cooperated and fought with each other, and the surrounding monsters in the maze area were all refreshed, and there were many players with joy on their faces.

Really, I have been wandering in the labyrinth area for almost a week. Players who have an armband with a pattern of illuminating dark flames have been put on these arms. They really hate the Boss Goblin Lord on the first floor. Teeth itchy.And now, after finally seeing the room where the Boss should be occupied, there are already players who want to rush to that hall, kill the Goblin Lord and successfully break the first level.

However, before the reckless guy really took action, I heard Asuna's slightly stern voice in the team: "No one is allowed to move, and priority is to clean up the surrounding monsters!"

"Huh? Understood!!!"

"be careful……"

After hearing Asuna's orders, the players who had become accustomed to obeying Asuna's captain's orders woke up. Instead of rushing to the palace recklessly, they formed an attack formation with their teammates and combined those mazes. The goblins that spawned from the zone were re-suppressed and killed one after another.

Among the players forming the team, Asuna, who has put on a set of light red bordered light armor, has sharp eyes, and the whole person is like a red rose that stays still in the wind, holding a rapier even more. An elite-level goblin captain suppressed it. Seeing that the blood bar of the goblin captain who was even higher than Asuna was less than one-third, and besides yelling, he couldn't hit his body and elegant, even At most one-third of Asuna's health bar will drop, and the persistence time can only be calculated in "seconds".

[Finally found the Boss on the first floor...]

Located in the center of the team, Maureen, who was fighting against the three goblin warriors, seemed to have no pressure at all. His steps were precise and keen. While killing a goblin warrior, he looked towards the palace.

...

Later, outside the labyrinth area, Star FlameTemporary resting place constructed by the guild.

It is said that it is a temporary rest point, in fact, it is the two simplest personal outdoor tents, which can allow players with insufficient health to enter and speed up the recovery speed. Not to mention, two simple tents that are expensive (current price range) can serve as warehouses. Function, it keeps the supplies brought by the [Star Flame] Guild that has not been officially established.

"Maureen, why didn't you go to the palace where the boss is to make a strategy? Is it because we weren't ready?"

Asuna stood behind Maureen, looked at Maureen who had just ordered the retreat, and asked strangely.

Not only Asuna, but other players who were pulled into [Starblaze] by Maureen also felt that the retreat order that Maureen had just issued was a bit strange, but as the leader Maureen gave the order, and the players who had only been investigating the circle were ordered to leave. !

"Now, Asuna, how much do you think it will cost to fight against the boss and a group of guards?"

Hearing Asuna's question, Maureen didn't mean to be angry, but rather calmly asked a question.

"Cost? If you attack Boss, someone may die if you are not careful..."

Asuna, who had just been stopped by Morin, blurted out her thoughts in shyness. She suddenly stopped and looked stunned. Then she suddenly realized why she didn't act immediately.

Just kidding, Asuna understands the dangers of SAO's death game very well. Although it has been smooth in all aspects for more than 20 days, it does not mean that the danger of the game has been reduced.On the contrary, it is an extremely cautious question to kill the first-tier boss, not only the boss that is definitely not easy to fight or even someone will die, but also the hope of whether it can break through...

"understood?"

Seeing the change of Asuna's expression, and the thoughtful expressions of many players who joined [Starblaze] not far away, Morin saw Asuna and the others nod their heads, and then looked at the distance tens of meters. In a bush, he shouted in a very kind tone: "Argo the Rat, it's not a good habit to eavesdrop like this, are you interested in taking one of my tasks?"

"Cut, [Starblaze]'s president is really amazing, but what do you want me to do?"

In the rustling sound, a petite figure wearing a cloak stood up from behind the bushes. The crisp voice was obviously a young girl, but the look in Maureen's eyes was wary except curiosity.

As one of the inner players of SAO, Argo has also heard of [Starblaze] and Maureen's titles. For Maureen repeatedly reminded the inner players and others to have a good impression of the game changes, but now she sees Maureen But he was a little confused, wondering why Maureen found himself mentioning the task?

You know, when Argo is inside SAO, she has the nickname [Argo of the Rat]. As the most famous intelligence dealer, she is not a mission mercenary!

"It's a simple thing!" Morin gently stretched out his hand, signaled safety to Asuna and other [Starblaze] players, and then said directly to Argo, "I want you to help inform those solo players and teams, and the day after tomorrow. At noon, I will invite those interested in the first-tier bosses to a strategy meeting at the arena ruins in the nearest village!"

(Second... Seems to be in the wrong order?!)

Chapter 11 Verbal Confrontation (Zhongyuan Festival...Well, I wish my ancestors bless you~!)

"The first-tier boss is a goblin lord. It occupies the inner area of ​​the first-tier labyrinth area. It needs to pass at least the monster obstacles in the labyrinth area first. It is basically difficult for teams with less than ten people to enter the target area. deep!"

"Compared to the outside, the monsters in the labyrinth area will refresh faster, and the strength of the monsters will be much higher. This is also reflected in the palace in the labyrinth area, the Goblin Lord Boss on the first floor. Without further ado, at least three strong Goblin Guards can be summoned once!"

"What? Can only be summoned once? With this question, everyone knows that the current SAO game public beta and the inside are not exactly the same. This can be known from the players who have entered the inside. Many inside players just ignore the open beta and the inside. It’s hard to say whether the first-tier bosses will be reduced in skills and strength, so I suggest you don’t take it lightly when facing the first-tier bosses..."

In the arena, Maureen patiently explained the strategy plan of the first-tier boss to all players, and there was not much concealment in the words, and revealed the information that the first-tier boss might be different from the inside.

Hearing Maureen's commentary, Tilberu, Kirito and other players inside SAO who were still listening casually all had their faces slightly changed, and they couldn't help but remember the subtle difference between the current public beta and the inner side, and looked at Maureen's eyes. There was even a hint of gratitude and rejoicing - speaking of what Maureen did not say, they did not realize that not only some monster areas and the inner side of the mission were slightly adjusted, in case even the bosses on the floor appeared something If you change or improve your skills, it will be a terrible thing for players of the strategy!

Imagine that when players like them who have experienced the inner side of SAO go to the floor boss with full confidence and find that the skills and characteristics of the boss are not at all on the inner side, it is estimated that they will pay more than just the Raiders. The problem of failure is probably the life of yourself and your companions!

It is not only the rejoicing and fear of the players inside the SAO game such as Tilberu and Kirito. Heathcliff, who is sitting in an inconspicuous position in the arena, looks at Morin with a hint of surprise...

...

"...Okay! Everyone, the above is the relevant situation of the first-tier boss!"
