Chapter Thirty-Four: The Battle of Cratir
"I'm not sure if it's possible for them to be bribed or the members of the smiling coffin, but if you suspect that someone else has to come up with evidence, you have to find a way to get the mole to show her feet. Pen ~ Fun ~ Pavilion www.biquge.info" Asuna knocked on the table and mused.
"Then what's the solution?" I asked suspiciously, it's impossible for the person in the smiling coffin to turn himself in just asking, it's useless to just talk, what is the way to seduce the person in the smiling coffin?
"This is for you to think about it, I haven't dealt with the smiling coffin, and the guardian you have already fought with them several times, so you should remember some of the characteristics of the smiling coffin!" Asuna looked at Tang Wenke.
"What can I know, the person who smiles at the coffin will have a black coffin with a weird smile tattooed on his body, of course, if it is a traitor who has been inserted, there is a good chance that there will be no tattoos on his body, but all the members of the smiling coffin I have seen so far have this tattoo on their bodies.
The question is how to observe whether they have tattoos on their bodies! After all, tattoos are not necessarily tattooed in obvious places, and the person smiling at the coffin is not a fool, and as a guild that everyone shouts and beats, it is naturally impossible to appear openly, and the difficulty is in this regard. Tang Wenke scratched his hair, a little distressed.
"Well, I have an idea, I don't know if you're willing to cooperate. Asuna thought of a way, and then asked Tang Wenke.
"You say. ”
"I invite you to join us as a guard for the Blood Alliance Knights, so that you can come and go freely at our headquarters during this time, and take this opportunity to investigate who is most suspected of being a traitor. Asuna suggested.
"Good idea, but what about Kratir?" My eyes lit up, this is indeed a good idea, Asuna is the deputy head of the Blood Alliance Knights, or a popular player in the game Sword Art Online, as his guard, he still has to give some face, so that there will not be too many people to interfere with the matter of his own investigation, but it is clear that Asuna has a guy next to him who is suspected to be her avid fan.
"It's okay, Kladil was originally temporarily sent by the regiment commander to be my guard, and being my guard has slowed down his level progress, just enough to let him go back to level up!
The old big brother of the guard disappeared last week, and his friends say that something happened to him." Asuna waved her hand to show that she was out of the way, and then thought of her last big bodyguard, who was always very wooden behind her back, but was better than the male players who always looked at her with nasty eyes.
"I'm sorry. "However, Kladir obviously didn't feel that he was delayed, looking at his appearance, it was his wish to follow you] complained speechlessly in his heart, I don't believe that Asuna's intelligence will not be able to see it.
"It's okay, then tomorrow you come to the central square of this layer of town early in the morning to find me, and I will take you to join the group. Asuna nodded.
At 9:00 on the second day, some members of the strategy team had already appeared in front of the portal and walked towards the front line.
I'm a little aimless, I got up early today, I ran to Asuna's door early in the morning and called for a long time and no one responded, I guess I'm still sleeping, silently reading the game menu in my mind, looking at my skills and attributes to pass the time, the idea of "if only I could have a game console to play" suddenly popped up in my mind, and then I felt a little speechless to myself.
I actually want to play a game in this game, it's really hopeless, do you want to go back to sleep for a while? I just thought this in my head..... The portal on the side lit up with a blue teleportation light that I had seen a few times, and I looked at the net door that didn't give much hope, and the next moment, Asuna appeared in front of the door.
"Hug, sorry, I'm late!" Asuna bowed apologetically.
"It's okay, I was just wondering if I wanted to sleep a little longer, so I just waited for more than an hour!" I replied honestly.
"Hiss" An inexplicable cool air surged up his back
Sense--Asuna had a sinister look in her eyes, as if she was considering whether to kill her prey
[Abominable Tang!, obviously apologized, and emphasized that she had waited for a long time] Asuna thought angrily in her heart, but she didn't know that Tang Wenke just didn't react, and subconsciously said it.
Just as I began to research the best escape route on the map, the portal glowed blue again. Asuna turned around as if startled and ducked behind my back.
"What's wrong?" I couldn't figure out what was going on, so I could only stand there, confused. The blue light slowly dissipated, and a new figure appeared in the smoke of the door.
After the light had completely dissipated, there stood faces that had been seen before. The exaggerated pure white cloak is emblazoned with a red medallion on it. The man who was dressed in the payment of the Guild Blood Alliance Knights, equipped with overly decorated swordsmanship metal armor and two-handed swords, was the long-haired guard who followed Asuna yesterday. The name should be Cladeer, right?
After coming out of the portal, Kratil saw Asuna hiding behind Tang Wenke, and the wrinkles that had been carved between her brow and the bridge of her nose became deeper. Although he should not be very old, probably in his early 20s, these wrinkles make him look very old. He gritted his teeth hard, and said with a look of resentment:
"Lord Asuna, come on, you must know that you will cause me trouble like this, how can you claim it without permission, I should be the most loyal knight by your side!"
"Don't! Cladir, obviously yesterday the elder agreed to let the guardian brother be my guard, you can go and do your own thing, don't bother you to protect me! Besides, why do you know that my family is on this floor?" Asuna, who was behind Tang Wenke, replied with a rather distressed look when she saw Kratir's appearance.
"Hmph, I expected this to happen for a long time, so I started a monitoring mission on this level a week ago!"
Cradir replied proudly, and Asuna couldn't help but stand still, and after a moment she replied in a stiff voice:
"This.... It shouldn't be the commander's instructions, right?"
"I'm tasked with being Lord Asuna's bodyguard, so of course I'm also keeping a watch on the outside of your house... ”
"How could such a thing be included, Bagabaga!" Asuna exclaimed rather angrily, knowing that she had been watched a week ago, and Asuna, who had always been very quiet, couldn't control her emotional rudeness.
At this time, the angry and anxious expression on Kradil's face became more obvious, and he walked over with a loud roar and pushed Tang Wenke away roughly, and then grabbed Asuna's wrist.
"Please don't disobey my advice..... Come, let's go back to headquarters, and I'll continue to be your bodyguard. ”
Hearing his tone of voice that seemed to explode with emotion and that terrifying and hideous face in a state of anger, not only Asuna, but even me, who had gone through several life and death crises, was a little creepy. Asuna was pulled a few steps and showed Tang Wenke a look for help.
Of course I can't just let Asuna be dragged away, so I'm still a man?I reached out and grabbed Cratyr's right wrist that was holding Asuna, controlling my strength to prevent a safe zone warning.
"I'm sorry, now I'm Asuna's deputy head of the guard, I won't allow you to do this!" is quite a dedicated line, I think this Asuna fanatical fan shouldn't say anything more.
When Cratier heard this, he suddenly became furious, his face twisted, and he shook my hand away.
"You guy!"
He yelled at me in a gong-like voice, and the spit spewed out of his mouth wantonly. Even if the expression on his face has not been systematically modified, it can be seen that it is already a little out of control.
"Asuna's safety is my responsibility. Besides, there are no meetings or activities today, so you better go back!"
"No kidding! A miscellaneous player like you! How can the Knights of the Blood Alliance, who only entered by virtue of a little friendship with Lord Asuna, have the ability to serve as Lord Asuna.....'s guard! I'm ......"
"Heh, is that of your strength? You don't even have the qualifications to lift my shoes!" I was completely angry, this guy provoked himself again and again, really thought he was a soft persimmon, and pinched if he wanted to?
"Stinky little ghost..... You, if you are so confident, then prove it to me!"
Cradil's face turned pale with anger, and he handed over the serial mouth with his trembling right hand and maneuvered it quickly. Immediately, a translucent system message appeared in my sight. My brother-in-law doesn't have to think about it to know.
"Cratir, the level of the guardian is at least 5 levels higher than yours, you will lose, so don't duel!" Asuna was a little unbearable, although she was very dissatisfied with Craidier's behavior of stalking her, but after all, she was her former guard, and there were already many people around who were watching, Asuna also knew that a man's face was very important, if Cladier was ashamed to challenge Tang Wenke in public, he would definitely be very faceless.
On the contrary, Kladier didn't appreciate Asuna's words at all, but felt that Asuna was scared, because Tang Wenke didn't have any strength at all, and when he saw more and more people gathered around him, his heart became excited, and he seemed to have seen the opponent's fiasco.
"Kratir's request for a 1vs1 duel is yours. Would you like that?'
There were two options for Yes/No underneath the silently glowing text, but now I hesitated, not because I was afraid of Kratir, but because I was worried that doing so would have any effect on Asuna's statement.
"Is that okay? Won't it cause any problems in your guild?" I asked in a private chat.
"It's okay, I'll report to the head of the regiment. Asuna's small but firm voice came.
I nodded, pressed the Yes button, and selected "First Strike Win Mode" from the options
The rules of this mode are to concentrate the opponent with a strong attack first, or the team that drops the opponent's HP to less than half first.
Once the message changes to "You have accepted the challenge of Kraidil 1vs1 Duel", the countdown to the elapsed seconds begins below. The moment the number goes to zero, the HP protection between me and that guy in the city block will disappear and we will compete with each other until the winner is decided, which is completely different from my and Kirito's "sparring battle mode".
