Chapter 61 Selfishness

As a terminally ill patient who wants to go to the SAO world, among the three patients, it was Melida who proposed it. She is a SAO closed beta player. She believes that it is more meaningful to live like this instead of lying in the hospital bed waiting for the end of life.

If the nervgear is modified and released successfully while the power is on, everything will be fine. Even if it doesn't work, you can still fight monsters in the game. If the player's combat power increases, it may help other players.

Anyway, the mortality rate of the diseases they suffer from is very high, higher than that of SAO, so it doesn't matter if they do this. Compared with just being alive and being tortured by the disease, causing pain to relatives, troubles to teachers and classmates, and becoming adults,

He will die before serving the society; then, burning the short life left, even if it allows one more healthy player to live, is not in vain.

But, are they really so selfless? Merida still has a body that can move freely, but her and her sister's parents have died, and they can only lie in the hospital bed quietly waiting for death for the rest of their lives.

In fact, when she first came to this world, even though she quickly showed extraordinary adaptability, she still felt scared when picking up sharp weapons. She would still stop moving forward if there was not a person named Heathcliff to enlighten her.

, maybe living a life of planting fruit trees to wait for harvest or fishing.

Although he doesn’t say it explicitly, doesn’t it mean that he longs for a body that can run freely without any symptoms of illness and can do what he wants to do - even if it is the same as hospice care?

Players who are trapped in this world and are cowardly and inactive don't even want to think about what's going on with their bodies in reality. So what's the difference between her and them?

In the flickering purple-black sword light, another silver-white monster fell down, exploded into pieces, and disappeared. The upgrade prompt window slightly obscured her vision, forcing her to watch the incoming monster's attack even more nervously at this moment.

.

The density of silver swordsmen and axemen has increased, and there are also monsters such as silver archers and silver shield warriors that are a bit tricky to match.

Let me explain here that although Yuuki appears to be weak in the team, she only kills a few enemies and is not holding back. She is constantly dodging any attacks, knocking down monsters, protecting Dorothy and the Yellow Hen, and keeping up with the pace.

Make your way through the maze.

If it weren't for this level, she wouldn't even have room for random thoughts.

However, equipment is always a big problem.

"Oops, this sword is really not enough. It is old originally, and with the increased wear and tear of the magic sword skill, its durability is running low. But without the magic sword skill, my weapon does not have enough damage to metal monsters.

, isn’t there any monster that just drops a weapon suitable for my equipment?”

Weapons other than katana swords do drop. If you pick them up, you won't be able to wield them to kill monsters. However, if you don't have enough proficiency in the relevant skills, you can only slash horizontally, making it difficult to use sword skills, and the output will be further reduced. Use it forcefully.

It's also easy to lose balance and fall due to mismatched equipment, like when Kirito challenged Krampis.

Yuuki is confident in her sense of balance and reflex arc in this world, but she only has one life and cannot gamble.

"There is no other way. If you kill another one, just retreat and use the throwing tool as a rear guard."

Just when she was thinking this, Nim's voice sounded from above the hole: "Yuji, take two steps back!"

Yuuki heard the sound and knocked back the silver shield warrior in front of him with one sword. Then he took two steps back. Then several swords fell from the sky. Three of them stabbed on the ground, blocking the movement of the silver shield warrior. Two swords penetrated a silver bow and arrow behind him.

hand.

Yuuki flicked the shield in front of her from the side with her sword, rotated her body to avoid the counterattacking blade, and used the momentum to kill it with a [Spin ​​Slash] that was already full of blood. She immediately sheathed the sword and pulled out the sword stuck in the ground.

sword.

That's a crystal sword. It should have been created by magic and then shot with some kind of throwing technique. Although durability is a problem, the parameters that change after being added to the equipment slot are good, and it can be used for a period of time.

"Sister Yuuki, the left side is in danger!"

It’s not that Yuuki didn’t notice that the [Search for Enemies] skill was very clear, but she was not sure about the timing of its action. She felt the wind and leaned back to avoid the flying arrows without thinking - this is not Dorothy.

Si reported the time for the first time.

On the way to the maze, everyone wanted to protect Dorothy at first, but Dorothy said that she had experienced a lot during the journey and was quite confident in protecting herself, and she also hoped that she could help everyone.

It is true that even though she didn't act like a warrior, she kept running around to avoid all the monsters, and sometimes even held the one-handled pot in front of her to bounce the thrower away.

Although Yuuki once suspected that this was a mandatory action in the game, it was too natural, and she would rather think that it was the result of her hard work.

But there was something different about the arrow that flew by this time - it was golden, and when it flew past Yuki and pierced the wall, it even set off a circular wave of air. The attack power must be extraordinary.

The enemy that was lit in the dark showed a black and red cursor - it was a powerful monster that Yuuki could not defeat, and its name was "golden general". It was immediately favored by Nimue's thunder and lightning.

The silver archer not far away from Yuji was about to be pulled out by Nimue with the crystal sword pierced into his body. Yuji's eyes flashed, he stepped forward, kicked his hand, and forced the sword into his body.

One foot long. Another silver swordsman happened to be approaching. She moved decisively and launched [Vertical Square Slash]. The shining blade and explosion hit the silver archer one after another and hurriedly tried to pull the sword out of his body, like a bowling ball.

He also blasted away the approaching silver sword and axe-hand.

The golden arrows were shot one after another at high speed with the special effects of the skill's light. Even the three strong men were forced to give up on unilaterally killing the silver monster and began to move around to deal with the enemy cautiously.

Soon, arrows began to be pointed at Doris!

"Danger!" This time it was Yuuki's turn to shout subconsciously and rush over.

But she still couldn't catch up with her speed, but she vaguely felt that the silver shoes and golden crown that didn't match her clothes seemed to have something that she felt when she used the magic sword skill - what experts would call "magic fluctuations".

The iron pot in Dorothy's hand shone with pink skill light. She swung the iron pot to bounce the powerful golden arrow away, and then stood still for a moment.

"Oops, the freeze after the skill! The next move is coming!" Yuuki's thinking seemed to speed up at this moment.

She clearly estimated that the power of the arrow was not enough to be offset by ordinary sword skills, so she activated the skill [Speed] and used the maximum speed of her own burst to launch the sword skill [Zigzag Wave] for the purpose of obstruction, and swung down a high frequency vertically.

The vibrating sword blade brought out jagged light, and hit the side of the next golden arrow at high speed with Yuuki, deflecting its trajectory to one side.
