Chapter 30: Gensokyo's Ayn Grant Strategy III
Marisa is very excited about the appearance of Sword Art Online, although she has also played some video games in Gensokyo, but Marisa, who is a game sufferer, is not good at RPG games, especially massively multiplayer online adventure games. Pen Fun Pavilion www.biquge.info However, most of the games in Gensokyo are played through electronic devices, and the game world is observed through a screen, unlike this, which is to completely enter the game world and become a part of the game world.
Feeling the novelty, Marisa played like crazy all day, and then felt that she needed to take things offline to deal with real affairs, after all, most of Marisa's magic is now used for food magic and charging the world shuttle, and she can't get magic from the air, but can only be made through food, so she needs to replenish food regularly.
However, according to the game instructions found in advance, there is no option to exit the game in the game menu that appears with a swipe on the right hand. Seeing this, Marisa couldn't help but scratch her hair, she had also seen this in games during her Gensokyo days.
"It seems that there will be bugs in this kind of game. ”
It's just that the problem that appears in Sword Art Online is not a simple bug, but a deliberate creation by someone. This was revealed to all players at the end of the first day of the game, in the central plaza on the first floor, or some shady scene.
Akihiko Kayaba, the creator of Sword Art Online, can be said to be a genius inventor who invented devices that completely cut off the human nervous system across the ages, and created real games that used to exist only in fantasy. At the same time, Kayaba Jinghiko also has the common problem of geniuses, they will always have a fanciful attachment in some places, and they can even sacrifice their lives in order to stick to their opinions.
The floating city of Ayn Grant is a world designed by Akihiko Kayaba herself, and it is also a world that Akihiko Kayaba has been fantasizing about in the past, and after developing it as a game scene, in order to ensure the authenticity of Ayn Grant, Akihiko Kayaba takes 20,000 players as hostages to carry out a real death game. Once you die in the game, your real-life body will also be killed by the microwave of the game helmet.
"Ah...... Now it's in trouble. ”
Looking at the panicked crowd around her in anguish, Marisa also felt a headache. If the mana is sufficient, Marisa doesn't care about the microwave of the game helmet at all, and as a magician, the microwave will not cause any damage to Marisa. But now that the magic is insufficient, the existence of the sacrificial magic is in a state where it may be lifted at any time, Marisa's body is not much different from that of a normal human, and her resistance to microwaves is close to zero.
"As long as you die, you are really dead. That guy is crazy enough. While complaining, Marisa still picked up the short sword she could use, stepped out of the safe zone, and went to fight the monsters to gain experience points and gold to survive.
Unlike ordinary players living in human society, although Marisa's Gensokyo is relatively peaceful, there will still be incidents of youkai attacking humans. Marisa, who had been attacked by youkai since she was a child, was very adaptable, and in the first few years of running away from home and living in the Magical Forest, there were many youkai who wanted to kill Marisa and devour human flesh that could no longer be obtained at will. That's why Marisa first lived in the Magic Forest and spent a long time fighting every day.
At that time, Marisa used a short sword after running out of mana, and used melee combat to resist the attacks of those monsters, which also created Marisa's good short sword skills. It's just that after that, as Marisa's total mana power increased, the number of attacks by the monsters decreased, and Marisa rarely used the short sword to fight, and she didn't fall into that bad situation.
With a swing of the short sword in his hand, Marisa slashes at the wolf's back, dealing some damage to the wolf. Marisa is not a game expert, nor is she a closed beta player of Sword Art Online, so she can't skillfully use the sword skills prescribed by the game system to cause damage to monsters, on the contrary, it is more suitable for Marisa to use her body instinct to act like this, and she can do more damage in the same amount of time.
It's just that this technique needs the support of weapons.,If the attributes of the weapon aren't good enough.,Then even the monster's defense won't break through.,Marisa can't kill monsters.。 So after getting out of the novice village and raising the level of the monster, Marisa's attack was a little powerless.
Returning to the novice village in the center of the first floor again, Marisa heard a piece of information on the street, that is, someone was preparing to hold a strategy meeting, preparing to go to the boss room on the first floor that had been discovered, and start to attack the boss on the first floor, opening the way to the second floor. So, with the mentality of going to see it, Marisa also attended the strategy meeting on time.
Since Sword Art Online is set as a game, there will be a goal to clear the level, and as long as you clear the level, you will get the final reward - return to reality. This doesn't just mean that players can return to reality, but that everyone can return to reality with the efforts of players who have cleared the level.
Due to her level, Marisa is not eligible to join the Raiders, after all, all players who are eligible to participate in the Raiders must reach the current level cap of ten levels, and at the same time, they must have good preparation. Marisa is less than level ten, only level seven.
However, despite not being able to participate in the Raiders, Marisa still meets some in-game friends at the conference. For example, the black-clad swordsman Kirito, and the beautiful girl swordsman Asuna. The strength of these two is at the forefront even among the raiders, and they can see a strong will to survive and belief in their eyes.
After getting acquainted with Asuna, Marisa was able to learn from her how to make delicious seasonings in the game, so that Marisa could no longer endure the taste of the system's food and eat some delicious dishes.
Such a good day no longer exists after the start of the Raiders Day.
Marisa doesn't know what the specific process of the first-tier boss strategy battle is, but she only knows that the effect is not ideal. Originally, according to the closed beta players among the mixed players, this boss battle should not lose any members, but as a result, the game and the closed beta period have changed a lot, resulting in a serious mistake in the strategy battle according to the original plan, losing a lot of gamers, and the player who organized the strategy event also died.
And one of Marisa's new friends, Kirito also made a name for himself in this strategy battle, becoming one of the few cheaters in the game. It's just that Kirito is basically in a state of solo strategy here.,Raid the game by yourself.,There's less contact with friends in the past.。
Asuna was also deeply affected by this, she didn't want to see the player die in front of her again, so Asuna worked harder to improve herself, and joined the strategy group formed by senior players, specializing in raiding the boss room and opening the way to the next floor. Asuna also sees Marisa has good potential, and hopes that Marisa can become more proficient in the use of sword skills and become a member of a powerful strategy team.
Unfortunately, Marisa still can't adapt to Sword Art Online's system, and it's really hard for her to use her sword skills in a fixed position. Instead, give her a good weapon, and she'll be able to deal more damage.
Marisa, who didn't join the Raiders team, continued her life as a regular player, and the members of the Raiders team began to move upwards and soon advanced to the 25th floor. The 25th floor is a quarter of the entire Ayn Grant, and the difficulty is much higher than that of other floors, even the strategy team has to challenge the boss many times, analyze the actions of the boss, and carefully formulate the optimal strategy to win the boss battle at the lowest cost.
The solo players began to return to the team, and the solo players with strong individual strength also joined the strategy group to contribute to the progress of the entire game.
As for Marisa, she is once again in the midst of a major crisis.
After discovering a hidden room in the labyrinth, Marisa enters the room unprepared, and after seeing the treasure chest placed in the center of the room, she runs directly to the treasure chest, ready to open it with her lockpicking technique. So Marisa's name as a black-and-white thief is not nonsense, even if she comes to another world, she will still follow this path.
However, in the game, such hidden rooms are dangerous.
Before Marisa could open the treasure chest, the door to the room that had been opened suddenly closed, and at the same time, many high-level monsters were refreshed in the room, and they rushed towards Marisa. There are so many monsters that Marisa can't find much room to dodge.
Desperately withstanding a few attacks, Marisa ran to the original door, but unfortunately this room is not set up to open when you arrive, and you need to kill all the monsters before you can leave. At this point, Marisa had no choice but to fight to the death.
After the last trace of health is consumed, Marisa's eyes go black, and a red tooltip pops up, indicating that Marisa needs to be resurrected within 5 seconds, otherwise she will actually die.
[Ah...... It turns out that there is a resurrection potion in this game? Unfortunately, it can only be used by people who die for 5 seconds...... Forget it, I didn't expect to die in this world...... Goodbye, Reimu. Goodbye, Father. 】
In the last moments of her life, memories of the past flashed before Marisa's eyes. Moments of life in Gensokyo come to Marisa's eyes, and Marisa finds that she still can't let go of her father, and even though she has been away from home for so many years, she still wants to go back to her childhood and sleep in her father's arms.
Then, the helmet's microwave turns on, heating Marisa's brain.
