"Huh...... Haah...... "Ye Chi rushed out of the gate with Asuna like a bag of rice, and ran wildly, forgetting the setting that as long as he escaped from this gate, the boss would not pursue, and ran until the nearest safe area before holding his knees and panting......

"Stupid! Put me down! ”…… It turns out that Asuna is still being carried......

"Oh oh, sorry! I see that you seem to be stunned...... "Ye Chi hurriedly put down Asuna - it is really the same as putting a rice bag......

"Levi-kun is the big eight!" Asuna angrily kicked Ye Chi's calf - and then the two hugged their legs at the same time...... Ye Chi is calf boots on the ...... It is a shin armor......

After messing around, the two leaned against the wall, "It's been a long time since I've been so embarrassed......" Ye Chi thought about it and suddenly laughed. "The last time I was probably on the second day of the game, when I was fighting the regional boss, the weapon was damaged......"

"But you're really exaggerated......"

"Nonsense, I'm carrying a person......"

"Do you have a hole in your head! Can't you just do it another way! ”

"What do you want......

"Of course it's a ......," she softened, and her face steam rose......

"......" Ye Chi's face was slightly red, and his gaze turned to the side......

“…… That guy seems to be quite tricky...... "God Twist......

"Indeed, the weapon is a two-handed sword, with a single edge, and its strength and speed are both high, so it stands to reason that the amount of blood should be less...... But no one can say for sure about the boss...... The name is Shining Magic Eye.,There may be ray-type attacks.,And beware of breath.,It's probably fire.,I noticed his tail.,That one may also have breath and attack power...... I didn't see much of the rest at a glance......"

"No...... That's pretty insight...... "Asuna said with a slight stunt.

"Due to the uncertainty of the special attack...... I recommend strengthening the avant-garde shield hand ratio...... It would be nice to have a whole strong team of shield spearmen...... But there aren't many shield spearmen on the front line......"

"After all, it looks like cannon fodder...... It's like Ashigaru during the Warring States period......"

"The ashigaru infantry doesn't even have a shield, do they?"

The two chatted with each other, calming their hearts.

"Wow, it's already three o'clock. It's a little late, but let's have lunch. ”

"What ......"

Ye Chi was stunned...... The first thing that comes back to mind is yesterday's stew......

"Did you do it yourself?" Ye Chi stared at Asuna with bright eyes.

"Of course!" Asuna replied briskly, and then began to quickly manipulate the menu. She unloaded her white leather gloves and called out a small basket.

"Is this the salary of teaming up with the deputy head of the Blood Alliance Knights...... It seems that my appearance fee is a little lower......" Ye Chi joked while secretly drooling.

"Roar? In that case, this humble meal could not enter the eyes of the Master Assassins? ”

“…… Please don't ...... like this," Ye Chi instantly knelt down and licked......

"Humph!" Asuna pretended to be unhappy and offered Ye Chi something.

Inside, it's a sandwich made with a lot of grilled meat and vegetables on a thinly sliced bun. At this time, the aroma similar to pepper began to waft into the air - Ye Chi, who didn't have much hunger, immediately felt that he was hungry......

"I started ......" "Click......"

The wheat aroma of the roasted bread with a slight crispy crust and the fresh aroma of vegetables are combined with the rich flavor of the grilled steak, and finally the delicate texture of similar mayonnaise and the slightly spicy flavor of black pepper are combined with Thai sweet and spicy sauce...... A satisfying taste......

"I feel like I'm back to life...... Wait! Where did the mayonnaise and black pepper come from in SAO! Ye Chi leisurely spit out a sigh of emotion - as delicious as in reality - more delicious than that...... But this is in SAO!

He was in the labyrinth of SAO, but he had the laid-back feeling of Subway in front of the station......

"Hey...... This is the result of a year of practice and research. It is to analyze the whole ~~~ part of the Ain Grant about a hundred kinds of seasonings that will produce on the taste regeneration engine, and this taste is completed. This is the result of a combination of the seeds of the Grokva tree, the leaves of the Shubul tree, and the water of the Kalim. ”

"Huh?" Ye Chi listened to it for a long time, and then he leaked such a word......

Asuna said as she took out two small bottles from the basket, pulled the cap on one side and put her index finger inside. When she pulled her fingers out, they were already stained with a purple sticky object that she didn't know how to describe. She went on to say:

"Mouth open."

Ye Chi reflexively opened his mouth, and Asuna flicked that thing into his mouth, "Mayonnaise!" Ye Chi didn't use it for a second to distinguish this taste.

"And then here are the Apiruba beans and the Sagu leaves, plus the Ula fish bones."

"Isn't that an antidote?"

When Ye Chi opened his mouth to speak, another bit of liquid entered his mouth-

"Yes...... you, you even know this thing! This is the old godmother! Ye Chi was taken aback - this product is not cheap in Japan!

When something is wrong and you can't eat...... It's really going to stuff the old godmother with rice...... International students have more or less had this experience......

The taste of this nostalgia......

This is...... Exclusive to the taste of wanderers.

Ye Chi couldn't help but put his fingers close at hand...... Put it in your mouth...... Feel the familiar spicy taste.

"Wow! What are you doing? Asuna's face flushed with her fingers and glared at Ye Chi fiercely

“…… I'm sorry...... It's just a matter of not being able to help it...... You don't understand the special emotions of this thing for international students......"

"By the way, if you sell this formula, you'll send it! No, no, SAO does not have a patent law...... If you sell the finished product directly...... I don't have anything to eat...... Ye Chi fell into a strange state of mind of suffering from gains and losses......

"You're very careful! I'll make it for you when I want to. ”

After whispering the last sentence, Asuna leaned slightly and leaned on Ye Chi's shoulder as if inadvertently.

"Suddenly a little homesick, then......" Ye Chi let out a leisurely sigh, "after going out...... I have to go back to my country to see my grandfather...... Although the old man is in good health, he beats me as if he was playing...... But I don't know how many years it will last...... I also want to see my former tablemate...... Apologize to her......"

The two fell into an eerie silence, a quiet and peaceful atmosphere enveloping them, and neither of them had the desire to speak.

If...... Every day, you can experience the taste of your hometown...... Moving to Selmubrook...... Go next to Asuna's house...... Not bad, huh......

No...... No way...... Asuna is not my chef......

So how do you get her to cook for me every day?

It's simple, as long as it's ......

"Puff......" Ye Chi's head also suddenly steam rose......

Suddenly, a group of players made the sound of armor and walked in from the entrance below, interrupting Ye Chi's vision.

The two immediately separated and sat apart.

"What...... It's you......" Seeing this group of people, Ye Chi immediately relaxed.

It's none other than the guild "Wind Forest Volcano" plus a black ......

"Klein, you're still alive...... And Kirito...... You're going to get all together......"

All the people who came were acquaintances, Klein was the president of this guild, and the high-level sword envoy was also a special skill, but it was not unique, they were all sword makers who often communicated together, and sometimes they were all in the end......

Needless to say, Kirito...... All know ......

"You guy...... Can't you just talk well? Even this guy with a hole in his brain came out with us today...... Why don't you find a ...... Accompany? He looked over Ye Chi's shoulder and saw Asuna...... Then the jaw is a little hard to retract......

"Ah...... Well, I guess we've seen each other during the boss fight, but I'd like to introduce them. This guy is Klein of the guild 'Wind Forest Volcano'. This is Asuna of the 'Knights of the Blood Alliance'. ”

Ye Chi briefly introduced: "By the way, you all know each other, right?" What is it like to be so surprised? ”

"Hello? Moses Moses? Are you disconnected? Ye Chi poked Klein's stomach and helped him put his chin up by the way.

"Y-Hello! I, I, my name is Klein, and I'm twenty-four and single!"

"......" Ye Chi was speechless...... This older loser......

"Boom!" Ye Chi gave him a shock, and before Klein could finish speaking, the other five members in the back rushed up, and all of them rushed to introduce themselves.

All of the members of "Wind Forest Volcano" had known each other since they played SAO. Klein is a respectable ...... to protect all of his companions and guide them to grow enough to be part of the Raiders team loser……

"Hmm...... The team leader's face looks like a bad guy, but they're all nice people. Then he was stomped hard by Klein......

"You two...... Finally together? I heard Liz say......" Kirito interjected......

"Don't use words that are so misleading!"

"And did you finally pull Miss Lizzie into the water?"

Ye Chi and Asuna complained at the same time......

Klein and Kirito had a tacit understanding, one left and one right, sandwiching Ye Chi in the middle, "Hey, what's going on......" "Did you two finally decide to get back together?" ”

"It's a far-reaching topic...... I don't even know where to start......"

"Hello. I'll be teaming up with this guy for a while, so please advise. Asuna suddenly said to Klein.

Isn't it just today that I'm going?

Ye Chi couldn't spit it out in one mouthful......

At this moment, there was a sound of neat footsteps...... Ye Chi was finally able to get out......

"It's the army!" Asuna whispered. Ye Chi nodded in approval. "It seems that because of the familiarity with the road...... Instead, we went to the front......"

A few people looked towards the entrance, and what appeared there was indeed a heavy unit that had been seen in the forest. Klein raised his hand for the five companions to retreat to the wall. The army still marched into the room in two columns, but it was not as uniform as it had been in the forest. Their steps were heavy, and the expressions under their helmets could tell that they were quite tired.

The troops came to a halt when they reached the other end of the security area. As soon as the man standing in front said "rest", the remaining eleven people made a loud noise and fell to the ground or sat on the ground. The man didn't even look at his companion, and walked towards Ye Chi.

A closer look reveals that the man's outfit is slightly different from that of the other eleven. In addition to the metal armor, which is a high-end product, the chest part is also painted with a badge that no one else has, and it is designed with a panoramic view of Ayngrunte.

The man stopped in front of them and took off his helmet. He was a rather tall man, probably in his early thirties, with a quadrangular face and very short hair, small eyes glittering under thick eyebrows, and a mouth tightly closed—like a soldier, but ...... This is a pure muscular warrior with a muscle...... Indeed, Lu Zi is such a rammer except for the house soldiers......

He swept his gaze to this side, instantly locked on Ye Chi, and said, "I am Lieutenant Colonel Kobaz who belongs to the Ayn Grant Liberation Army. ”

[Even the military ranks have been divided...... But...... You don't need to salute...... After all...... Even if it's Lu Zi...... It's just an upgraded version of the armed police...... Troops don't have to salute the locality, right? 】

"Livingslet, Lone Wanderer." Ye Chi replied briefly.

The man nodded slightly, and then asked in an arrogant tone:

"Have you already explored the area ahead?"

"Hmm...... The map has been recorded in front of the boss's room. ”

"Hmm. I hope you can provide me with a map file. ”

Seeing the man's natural attitude, Ye Chi was startled - this cheeky ......

Even Klein couldn't stand it, only to see him shout in a rough voice:

"What do you say...... Want us to deliver? Do you know how much effort it takes to record a map? How dare you say such a thing!"

Map archives in unconquered areas can be considered very important information. It can be sold for a very high price among treasure hunters who target treasure chests.

As soon as he heard Klein's voice, the man immediately raised his one-sided eyebrows, raised his chin and replied loudly:

"We're fighting to free you ordinary players!"

Then he said:

"It's your duty to help us!"

"Hello about a bunch of militiamen?" Ye Chi said nonchalantly, "It's okay, just support the local armament......" He said as he called out the trading window and passed the files of the labyrinth area to the man who claimed to be Lieutenant Colonel Kobaz.

"What did you say!" The man accepted the map, but without the slightest delay, he turned his face with Ye Chi, "Who is the militia!" Who are the local armies! I'm waiting for the Ein Grant Liberation Army! Fight for your deliverance! ”

"Isn't that what you're talking about...... Speaking of which, even if it is beautiful...... Are you from Lu Zi? The Self-Defense Forces are nothing more than high-ranking militias...... I was on the viewing platform during the Fifth RIMPAC Military Exercise, and I don't know what kind of bear you were fighting. Ye Chi squinted his eyes, and then stopped paying attention to him.

He was bored, turned around and left.

"By the way, I advise you not to attack the boss casually."

Kobaz turned slightly.

"It's up to me to judge......"

"We just went to see the boss's room, and it's not an enemy that just a few people can deal with. And your companions look pretty tired, too. ”

“…… My subordinates aren't soft-footed shrimp that will groan at this level!"

Although Kobaz emphasized it in a somewhat indignant tone when he mentioned his "subordinates", the "subordinates" who were sitting on the ground did not seem to agree with what he said.

"You guys stand up for me right now!"

Hearing Kobaz say this, they slowly stood up and lined up in two columns. Without looking at this, Kobaz stood directly at the front of the group, first raising a hand and then quickly waving it downward. Twelve men raised their weapons neatly, and the heavy equipment made a noise as they began to march again.

While it is true that they may seem to be at full HP, the tight battles within SAO will bring an invisible sense of fatigue. Although the real body left in the other world did not move, these fatigues could only be eliminated after sleep and rest here - those guys, the oil was running out.

“…… Are those guys okay......"

After the army disappeared at the exit to the upper floors, and their regular footsteps could not be heard, Klein said in a worried voice. This guy is such a nice guy.

"No matter how stupid you are, you won't immediately run to attack the boss......

It seems that Asuna is also a little worried. The tone in which the fellow, Lieutenant Colonel Kobaz, spoke, gave the impression that he would act recklessly.

“…… Why don't you take a look at it......?" Kirito brought it up.

Not only Klein and Asuna, but several others agreed.

"Huo? Levy, how amazing would you agree? ”

"That's not how cannon fodder is used...... Neither is human life. ”

Ye Chi replied without replying, and then escaped into the void, "I'll open the way, fast!" ”

Because Ye Chi opened the way in front of his head, he didn't hear Klein's words to Asuna.

"That...... Miss Asuna...... How so...... That guy from Levy doesn't speak well, and he's too kind...... Please take care of him...... After all...... He's been alone, too long. ”

"Hey, I will, definitely."

――――――――――――――――――――――――

Even if there is Ye Chi to open the way, but the group happened to encounter a monster refresh, although they were not injured but they were quite embarrassed, and it was a long time before they arrived in front of the boss.

On the way, they did not encounter the ranks of the army.

"Could it be that you have already gone back with props?" Klein says so, but in terms of facts...... Unlikely.

"Ahh............h

Although only a small sound could be heard, it was undoubtedly a scream.

And the screams weren't made by monsters.

Several people glanced at each other, and they all rushed out of the high speed.

Among them, Ye Chi, Kirito and Asuna were the most agile, and they would get rid of the people behind them after a while, and Ye Chi knew that it was useless to enter the battlefield alone, so he deliberately slowed down.

Then they saw the open door.

Behind the door leads to hell.

――――――――――――――――――

A chapter first, maybe another if there is time today......

But don't get too hopeful......
