In the dungeon, Kirito, Kibaou, and Rinde are temporarily in charge of the rear of the team.
Although Kibaou and Linde were worried at first that the number of people in their team was not enough to break through the maze, and they considered giving up part of the income from killing monsters and letting Crounpiss and Fei escort them all the way, they soon had no choice but to forget about it.
Ran and Yuuki are so strong that they can kill ten attacking monsters alone without getting hurt. With this skill, they must have accumulated quite a high level and skill proficiency.
They really only need to guard against the rear, which is considered the best configuration of the current formation.
"Hey, Kirito, I have to make a statement." Kibaou said suddenly, "I didn't get the mission, so I won't say thank you. I admit that it's good to have someone like your team and the cheater in front of you active on the front line, but
As the difficulty of the strategy continues to increase, sooner or later there will be a limit."
"Anyway, you just want to attract Yuki and Ran into the guild, right?" Kirito naturally didn't include himself in this. After all, the reputation of being a "suppressor" is not good.
But Kirito doesn't know whether to talk about the fact that they are actually terminally ill patients who come here mainly to experience life. The fact that they are so powerful is largely due to their high degree of rapid adaptation to the virtual environment and the SAO worldview.
sex.
However, the person named Merida is not bad at strength and is willing to fight. The introduction should be good. However, there is also a player named Heathcliff there who is also interested. He is also the one who introduced them to the hotel. The competition is fierce.
Ah. Let’s talk about it when we get back.
Kibaou: "That's all I have to say."
Linde added: "Considering your strength before, whoever invites your team will destroy our balance, not to mention splitting you up. So, it is good to say that there are more powerful players.
Yes, as a strategy group, we should strive for more."
Kirito felt that there were strange words mixed in, but when he rebutted it, it seemed to get darker and darker, so he just ignored it.
After a while, the team entered a safe area in the maze.
Kibaou and Linde tensed up - this was already their unexplored area.
But Crounpis had no intention of stopping to give him a chance to rest, and planned to step over directly.
"Get ready to go to the floor guardian's room. If you don't want to die, just follow my instructions strictly." Clawnpith's voice came.
"What?!" Many people were surprised.
"Stop, wait a minute!" Kirito shouted immediately, reacting as quickly as he had predicted.
To be precise, he had another matter to deal with.
As soon as he stepped into the safe zone, he turned around and pointed his sword at the shadow of the maze behind him, saying, "I've been following you for so long, if it's not to explore the maze and defeat the boss, then come out and explain."
As a player who is only active in a small team or even alone on the front line, [Searching for Enemies] is a necessary life-saving skill, and the proficiency is also quite high.
"Huh? Why didn't my skill (perception of magic) detect it?" Akanali turned around in surprise.
"Heh, it seems that your skills (magic) also have corresponding shortcomings and blind spots. This system is really balanced." Kirito said.
Two ninja figures seen in the hotel appeared in the shadows - Kotaro and Isuke.
"It's you again." Argo said speechlessly.
She, Kirito and those two were both beta testers and old acquaintances, but their relationship was not good due to some reasons.
"As expected of the Iga ninja, he defeated us so easily." Kotaro and Isuke said in unison.
"My brother's profession is Iga ninja?" Leafa opened her mouth in surprise, "But what my brother said to Yuuki at that time was——"
Kirito subconsciously said the words that made him want to read the file: "No, in fact, the guest I planned to play at that time was the Koga Ninja..."
"Brother, the game got corrupted?" Leafa was worried about this.
"No, no, no, I just wanted to play along with their atmosphere and don't take it seriously."
"Wait a minute, considering the spawning speed of the monsters in this maze and their resistance to [Stealth], it's impossible for these two people to break through here without being far away, right? There must be other teammates." Rin
De said.
"No, if these two people really can do it." Argo looked like he felt trouble was coming.
The reason is——
Kotaro and Isuke suddenly started moving at high speed, rushed through the safe zone, ran away and disappeared.
"I must take the first step." Before leaving, he added: "This is to punish crimes."
"Hey, that's over there--" Someone was halfway through shouting when he was interrupted by a new commotion coming from behind.
A group of about 20 blond players with blue eyes ran over aggressively, shouting profanities in English.
"Those two people are already pretty good, and they are also famous Leeroy. They actually got into trouble with American players. It's really troublesome." Argo said in embarrassment.
Speaking of the relationship with American players, this can give island players a headache.
Maybe the culprit is the Neon People. Everyone was trapped in the beginning of SAO. Although the starting towns in different countries are far apart due to different servers, a few American players temporarily living in the island country and the US military stationed in Japan have a virtual training test experience
Players can often find fault with island country players. Although there are certain system protections, there are many ways to hinder players from doing things.
All the troublesome American players logged in to the island country's server area are recorded in Argo's intelligence, not including the group of people in front of them. Considering that this is the central labyrinth area of the map, even though the Westerners are still here because of the large number of Eastern players.
It seems relatively rare, but it is not surprising even if there are players from Western servers.
"Is there anyone who speaks English fluently enough to have a good conversation?" Kirito, who was closest to the group, turned around and asked everyone.
"Tongzi, it's a good thing to be peace-loving, but if you look clearly, half of the people there have red and yellow cursors! It's the Play Killer! Criminal Guild! No wonder those two people said that." Argo said.
She can speak English very well, but only if the other party is a reasonable person, right?
Although I rarely see it with my own eyes, in newspapers published by NPC, it was announced that the crime rate of players in the United States is the highest among all servers.
The two sides quickly engaged in hand-to-hand combat, and the other side beat him up without any explanation.
"Ugh! What's going on with these guys!" Kibaou, who had been knocked down and rolled on the ground, got up and said fiercely.
"The safe zone will not lose HP, but the attack can still bounce people away. When the level difference is not big, it will become a powerful advantage in a fight!" Argo said while dodging left and right, "It seems that it is not just
It’s as simple as driving a train.”
"It's so annoying, these people are so cunning!" Yuuki and Ran knocked down five or six people in a row, but because they were in an area where they couldn't do any damage, they tirelessly used grappling and wrestling to attack.
