Chapter 14: Trapped?

The second floor of Ain Grant Floating City, one of the FireWasp refresh points.

"I said, why didn't Kirito-kun come......"

"Because I'm afraid that I will affect us because I said the words of Form 2, right? …… The child's temper is just ......"

"Livingxan, don't be old-fashioned, how old are you?"

"I'm a high school student, although it's a freshman in high school, all of you who haven't graduated from junior high school are children......"

"That's just a year older than me...... Anyway, Livings-san and Kirito-kun are even more powerful? ”

“…… Don't treat people as uncles! Just call me Levy...... It depends...... I'm not as good as him in hand-to-hand combat, he's not as good as me within ten meters, and he'll be killed by me in a life-and-death fight......"

"Hey, hey, Mr. Levy, let's be humble......"

"How long are you going to use honorifics? And you're a monster, Miss Asuna? ”

"Don't use honorifics, do you? And where am I a monster? ”

"I have combat experience in reality, Kirito was born in the sealed test, only you have made rapid progress from scratch......"

"Is there a dojo in Levy's house?"

"No, my father is a soldier in the army."

"Japan doesn't have an army...... Is it a self-defense officer of the Ground Self-Defense Force? ”

"No...... Who said I was Japanese...... Exchange student, Chinese, father is a military attache in the embassy...... Sorry for talking too much......"

The two chatted with each other, and talked about reality as they talked...... It's taboo......

The two of them are working on their reinforcement materials here...... The special bees here drop a rare bee sting ingredient that can be used as a buff accessory......

"Work hard, I've already gathered mine, and I'm up to you...... I'm fed up with these bees......"

The bees here are flying monsters, but they are very large, they can't fly very high, their carapace is very hard, their weaknesses are very few, and they even have sheaths on their compound eyes...... There is a certain probability that it will be paralyzed, and even if it is not paralyzed, there will be a feeling of swelling......

It's very unpleasant, if it weren't for the fact that this is also a bee sting's drop point, and the drop rate is much higher, and it will drop a pure white honey, he wouldn't have come......

And it's dangerous, okay...... Although the chance of paralysis is so small that it is not counted, this thing lives in small groups...... There is a bunch of wild bites around it, and no one can stand it......

Suck ...... You can't think of white bread smeared with honey......

The common method is that a person attracts hatred inside and is bitten, and the outside is crazy to output ......

And it's on a rotational basis...... But obviously, it's impossible to get girls inside......

If it weren't for the rich experience and falling multi-leaf, he would have left sooner or later......

With a three-level full strength plus a half-fingered glove of +5 strength that he almost bought with all his money, he was finally able to pick up a weapon called the "Assassin's Sword", which was actually an Atcan long knife.

The slightly curved blade reflected a dark sharp light, and Ye Chi's first feeling when he equipped this knife was actually "Brother finally has a weapon of normal length...... His sorrow is indescribable.

"It's too slow...... Why don't we go it alone? Asuna suddenly suggested.

In this regard, Ye Chi agreed with both hands...... If he had played his speed, he wouldn't have been so miserable......

"Those who lose, please eat dessert" "Who is afraid of who!" ”

Ye Chi didn't notice the girl's sly smile......

"100, whoever kills 100 first wins, how about it?"

"Okay ......"

"Then you're right here......"

………………

………………

Ye Chi only reacted at this time...... This is a cheat! The monsters in this neighborhood have all been killed by themselves...... As far as the eye can see, there are only two or three kittens that have just been refreshed......

"Asuna, you're cheating on me!!" Ye Chi looked up to the sky and roared, and his breath returned to his bowels.

However, Ye Chi was still a little happy......

Asuna now is like the strange swordsman who rushed to death three days ago......

At least they all have the leisure of pit people, don't they......

With such an idea, Ye Chi began a senseless struggle.

Although it took him much less time to kill each monster, his time was wasted on the road......

In the end, Ye Chi could only accept his fate......

When we returned to the main neighborhood, Urbas, the bell towers that stood all over the street were ringing crisply. Although it sounds like a melodious melody with a sense of nostalgia, it is the bell that tells the player that night has fallen. At 7 o'clock in the afternoon, it is time for players who have gone out to areas outside the city to return together.

But maybe for players like Kirito, the hunt starts when night falls, after all, the experience points and explosion rate have been greatly improved......

However, most players will choose to take a trip to the town at this time, not only to dispose of the loot, replenish supplies, but also to relax their minds.

Proof of this is the unspoken smiles of the players walking on the main streets of Ulbas, no matter who they are. The inns and taverns set up side by side on both sides of the road are filled with laughter and toasts in celebration of the day's survival.

"It's a feeling of hope...... Ye Chi muttered.

The first layer is breached, not just a certain layer, but a 0 to 1 breakthrough - at least to tell everyone that the breakthrough is possible and meaningful, and call on more players to join the strategy.

"Actually, it's inseparable from you...... When the first layer was imprisoned for a month, everyone was far more restless than it is now. There is a kind of despair that can never return to reality...... I'm among them. However, the first layer finally formed a raider team, and the initial challenge was completed, and the second layer was opened. Someday this game will be broken through, and everyone has this idea. That's why he has such a smiling face. …… That being said, if it weren't for someone involved in the boss fight, there wouldn't be the current scenario. Asuna seemed to hear Ye Chi's words and said so.

"So. Sacrifice makes sense...... But the price is too high......"

The store that Ye Chi and they went to really conforms to the "Hutong" (can you understand Northeast dialect?). Just listen to the road map -- take a narrow road that divides off from the main street from east to west, turn north, and go further on to a place that turns right and left -- this is it.

They sat on the innermost seats in the restaurant, and after ordering, Ye Chi raised his questions...... That's how she found this?

"I bought the information from Argo. In Ulbas, there are no NPC restaurants with fewer people. ”

Ye Chi was silent, as Asuna said, there were no other players in the store. Asuna sighed after pulling up the main window, uncloaking and arranging her long hair.

"Finally willing to take off your hat?" Ye Chi squinted, "I also have a hood...... More professional than yours, I don't carry ...... every day"

"You don't understand ......"

The simple appetizer is finished, and it is indeed simple...... Vegetable salad - I don't know what kind of dressing is in it......

Beef stew - the portion is quite generous anyway......

Beef and onion soup...... Plus buns.

It's pretty simple...... However, Ye Chi always remembered the beef stewed radish that his mother made at home when he ate it......

I don't know what's going on...... Contact didn't come again either......

But this time, there was no wish, no movement, only the sound of knives, forks and spoons colliding.

The main drama is coming...... In fact, the dish just now was already an appetizer + soup + main course, but the highlight of this meal was really dessert......

Especially the dessert is Ye Chi please ...... Two desserts are a medium piece of equipment, can you believe it?

“…… What the hell is this! Too much, right? ”

"Wow, that's amazing! I'm always excited when I see Argo-kun's tipster writing 'Tremble Shortcake is worth once.' ”

The two reacted very differently.

That trembling name doesn't just mean that the ingredients come from some of the same name, a thorny giant bovine monster...... This exaggerated shape definitely accounts for part of it...... Quite a large part......

The crust is about the diameter of a six-inch pizza......

That is, nearly 20cm, one-sixth of the heart angle, that is, 60 degrees......

The height is close to 10cm

Translated, the total volume is more than one and a half liters......

The cream inside is more than a liter......

"You tell me it's a muffin...... You told me it was a mille-feuille, and I believed it......"

Asuna didn't answer Ye Chi's complaint, but cut a small piece with a fork with her eyes shining......

The golden cake and cream layer underneath the cream resemble a geological fault of civilization...... Triple cake with three layers of cream, plus this mouth-watering portion...... It's definitely enough for a real-life dieter to drink a pot......

"Hmm~~ I feel like it's really worth it to live until now......"

Looking at Asuna's happy expression as if she was about to ascend to heaven, Ye Chi also picked up the fork and silently cut off a piece.

It's completely different from that ghost-like sick girl who seems to be ready to die at any time......

This is the expression that a girl, especially a girl like her, should have.

Silently putting the fork in his mouth, Ye Chi was instantly overwhelmed by the soft and sweet taste......

And then it doesn't stop at all......

In reality, it is absolutely impossible to feast on desserts like this, not to mention the problem of calories, even your budget cannot support such a meal every day...... Once a week is a reasonable frequency......

Ye Chi didn't have an aversion to sweets, but if he was told that he needed to dry up more than a liter of cream, he would definitely vomit......

"It tastes good, de~su." Asuna is so satisfied that she accidentally reveals her cute mouth fetish......

"Ahh......hh The four-leaf clover-like pattern is a buff for the "Lucky Judgment Bonus".

This blessing can be obtained by making a cheap donation to the church, and can also be obtained by equipping accessories that contain this effect, or by eating special food and drinks.

In SAO, the only parameters that are explicitly displayed in numerical values are Strength [STR] and Agility [AGI], and although only a minimum is used, there are hidden parameters that increase or decrease special effects based on equipment, as well as various buffs, debuffs, and terrain effects. "Luck" is one of them, and the resistance to poison and paralyzing attacks, the incidence of "weapon drop [fumble]", and "fall [Slip]" will probably also affect the drop rate of rare items, which is a very important parameter.

It must be one of the Akass staff who sells the muffin at such a high price, so there should be some other perks besides the taste, okay, after making this judgment, I added it to the official server. The duration is fifteen minutes. Fifteen minutes is enough to eat this muffin during a break in battle, but ......

“…… Unfortunately, if you go out hunting now, you won't have enough time. ”

"But...... The buff that I finally got can't just be wasted......" Ye Chi began to search his intestines and scrape his stomach in line with the principle of not wasting it, thinking about what activities could be used......

At the right time, there was a clear sound of striking iron in the distant streets......

The decision is his!

It took a lot of time...... At least in this high-priced buff, every minute and second is precious, and the waste is always quite long, Einstein once vividly explained this phenomenon......

On a carpet laid in the northeast corner of the eastern square of Ulbas, there are small anvils and weapon display racks, I am afraid that the players who place these are the first craft profession ......to start official activities since SAO officially launched the server and became the game of death, the "forger", which is Ye Chi's goal.

Let the power of the muffins bless us with success!
