When Alice went on a mission for the first time, she expressed confusion about their Integrity Knights' rules prohibiting too much contact with the public, so she asked her colleagues: "Are there any problems if the public comes into contact with us?"
"The Supreme Priest once said that if we help the people in front of us with a moment of kindness, not only may the people become dependent and not be able to rely on themselves in the disaster, but we may also increase jealousy and conflicts among the people because of the loss of others." Kiro said.
"Your Excellency Alice, the magma over there has flowed into the forest. When it caused the mountain fire, it may be true that the beasts and monsters were driven out as the Elder Assistant Highness said. If they rush towards the people who are fleeing for their lives, it will be troublesome. How about we go there?"
Hobre said again.
The two of them are superior to Alice in terms of seniority, but they have not been able to adapt to any artifacts, and they have only learned one or two sword skills. They cannot obtain artifact resources based on their strength. They are miscellaneous soldiers among the integrity knights, so they
You also have to ask Alice for permission.
"Okay, we must not let the beast tide come into contact with the people, let's go." In order to suppress her unwillingness, Alice led them to rush in the only direction they could work towards.
Sure enough, a tide of beasts appeared.
Under the cover of the flying dragon's breath, the three people jumped to the ground and tried to stop the wild beasts and monsters that were running wild.
"System-Call!...Enhance-armament!" Alice immediately raised the Void Guardian Sword and activated [Complete Armament Control Technique].
The [Enhance Armament] released at this level allows Alice to quickly get used to it and see through the activities of all objects in sight. It is an effect with no offensive power, but it is very important in this kind of battle situation.
Alice's strength has improved rapidly. At this time, her strength can already be ranked among the top ten integrity knights. The other two seem to be weak, but they are still ridiculously strong compared to ordinary humans. They can also deal with beasts that are not warriors.
It didn't require a lot of tricks, and although there were not enough people, they had to run back and forth after Alice read out the beast tide's movements and gave full command, but they finally managed to stop the beast tide.
But as time goes by, the fatigue caused by physical exertion will always become apparent.
"We can't go on like this! We must further use the power of the [Full Arms Control Technique]!" Alice said.
"Wait a minute, Sir Alice hasn't—"
"...Release...recolle!"
Without waiting for her companions to stop her, Alice just activated [Release Recolle].
During the liberation, a group of monsters seemed to see a huge threat. Some ran around and ran around, while others rushed over as if to interrupt the ultimate move. Then, they were shattered to pieces by a burst of lightning-like attacks.
…………
Crownpis didn't tell the full truth.
It does take pure love to deal with the Headless Horseman "The Void Guardian (The Void Guardian)", but the part that is neutralized is the hatred caused by Adominis Doret when he made "The Void Guardian (The Void Guardian)"——
The prototype of "The Void Guardian" is one of the protective programs that maintains the system of the Underworld. After integrating himself and the system, Adominis Doret also wanted to objectify this thing and make it into his subordinates.
.
But the moment it was made, "The Void Guardian" immediately regarded Adominis Doret as a "virus" that needed to be cleaned up, and had no choice but to seal it.
Therefore, the function of the first-level liberation of the artifact "Void Guardian Sword" is to retrieve all the things that need to be cleaned and isolated and figure out the solution like anti-virus software; the second-level liberation is expressed as the correction of itself and the deletion of the target -
-The attack can produce the effect of "Unit Elimination Sword", and objects with lower authority than yourself can be destroyed with one strike, but no experience points will be gained.
The one-hit kill effect is great, but there's something wrong with the correction effect.
A memory area in Alice's heart was replaced by a God-worshiping module. At the same time, Alice's own memory was also deleted because the outside world wanted Kirito to leave the scene for a while and Yuuki's complete departure so that part of the world would not cause problems. All of the above
Wei's authority is higher than Alice's, so the correction power on herself cannot take effect.
But the existence of empty memory cannot hide from the Void Guardian Sword.
"My memory...who is my important person...where is it? It's not this...it's so annoying, delete it...I want to see them...it's not this, delete it! Delete all the ones that are in the way...
…”
Even though she couldn't see the target, she still had to desperately seize it. For this reason, Alice kept eliminating the obstacles in front of her.
From the third-person perspective of Hubei and Kilo, it is Alice who is running around and killing people while talking crazy words. All creatures that the sword passes through, whether they are magical beasts, beasts or plants, are all turned into fragments and quickly annihilated.
.
"Oops, Alice-dono has also been swallowed up by the memory of the artifact!"
"The beast tide has been suppressed, but what about Alice?!"
Since they cannot obtain the artifact, it means that they have had the experience of trying to obtain the artifact and being devoured by their memories. Although the symptoms vary depending on the person and the nature of the artifact, the only one so far who can directly wield a sharp blade to kill without distinction is Edith.
Alice is in front of her.
According to the usual solution, they should first defeat the opponent and let the artifact out of their hands, but seeing that the artifact destroyed everything it touched, they didn't know what to do since they were already weak in swordsmanship.
At this time, a golden light shot from the distant Axiom Church near the top of the tower and directly hit the crater.
The volcanic eruption stopped instantly, as if a huge shock wave was formed with the volcano as the center. The volcanic ash and rain clouds were blown away in an instant, revealing the sunshine on a clear day.
"Oh oh oh, is it a miracle from the Supreme Priest!"
"But isn't the Supreme Priest still sleeping?"
"Then it can only be the result of the joint efforts of many of the highest-level sacred magicians in the Senate. Remember that this mission was requested by Alice from the Senate Assistant."
"Then why not use it from the beginning?"
"Perhaps they are not the highest priests, so they need to prepare and send us to buy time. Or maybe they hope that the people know how to protect themselves better and prevent them from being overly dependent on us. As expected..."
Integrity knights are very good at imagining things their superiors do without permission because of their God-worshiping module.
But if the crisis is resolved, wouldn't the next target of the rampaging Alice be——
Just as Hubei and Kiro were about to jump on the flying dragon and take off to hide, another Integrity Knight descended from the sky: "Bercouli Synthesis Wan, enter!"
"Knight Commander, why are you here?"
"My mission has a time limit, which means that as long as I can catch up, it is allowed to take a short detour to inspect the work of other subordinates. As expected, the eldest lady is still a bit showy, which can't be reassured."
