Chapter 488: The Slim "Hope"

"Huh? Christmas Eve holiday celebrations? Nightshade held a cup of black tea and looked at Asuna, who was sitting across from her. Pen, fun, pavilion www. biquge。 info

After teasing Kiriko in the morning, it seemed that she was too shy, and Kiriko simply hid back in her small home, so there were basically only Nightshade and Asuna here, and of course, Nabelal with three maids waiting aside.

Asuna and Nightshade were sitting face to face at the stone table in front of the bamboo building, drinking black tea and chatting.

"Yes, according to the intelligence, this time on Christmas Eve, that is, at midnight tomorrow, there will be an event boss named 'Nikolai the Apostate' appearing, and players who kill him can get resurrection items!"

Asuna's expression was very solemn.

"Powerful players and guilds are all looking for clues to that boss!"

In SAO, once the player's HP is cleared, the real body will also be killed. For every player, there really is only one life.

Only this time, there will be a boss who will burst out with resurrection props!

One can imagine how crazy and strong the players' desire for this item will be.

"If I'm not mistaken, I remember that once a player dies in a game, those real-life brains will also be destroyed by high-power microwaves and cause death, right?"

"So, can this item really bring back those dead players?"

"It is impossible for the brain that has been destroyed to be repaired as a prop, so the so-called resurrection function of this prop is probably to use the prop to resurrect it in a short period of time after death, while the brain has not been damaged by microwaves."

"For players who have been dead for a long time, this item is of no use!"

Listening to Nightfall's speculation, Asuna was silent for a while, then raised her head with a determined gaze, "But, even so, it can save the life of a player who is about to die, right?" ”

"You want?" Nightshade looked at Asuna and smiled.

"That, that ......" Asuna was immediately embarrassed.

Nightshade looked at Asuna's embarrassed appearance, laughed, waved his hand and said: "It's not a shame to want to resurrect props, since you want it, go and work hard to get it, I'll help you when the time comes!" ”

"Really!?"

Asuna lifted her little face, full of surprise.

"I'm going to lie to you, and besides, that thing won't be of much use to me."

Nightshade took a sip of black tea absently.

"That's great!"

"Nightfall! Nightfall! Nightfall! It's a big deal! ……”

At this time, Kiriko's anxious voice came, and the two turned their heads to look, only to see Kiriko running here in a panic, and there was a look of grievance behind her, and there seemed to be undried tears on her face.

"What's going on?" Nightshade subconsciously stood up, caught the Kiriko who fell into his arms, and asked softly.

Although I don't know what happened, seeing the two girls like this, Night Death also knew that something was wrong.

Sure enough, the first thing Kiriko said when she looked up surprised Nightfall.

"Keita...... Keita they ...... Killed! ”

"Huh?" Nightshade was startled at first, then quickly calmed down, and said calmly, "Kiriko, calm down first, don't worry, tell me what happened." ”

"I don't know the specific situation, so you might as well ask for luck."

Hearing Kiriko say this, Nightshade shifted her gaze to Yuki behind her.

"Good, Xiaoxing doesn't cry, can you tell my brother first, what happened to Qitai and them?" Nightshade squatted down, gently wiped his eyes for Yuki, and asked softly.

"Wow, Big Brother Night!" Seeing the night death, Xing's heart that had been nervous seemed to calm down, and her sense of security suddenly jumped into the arms of the night death and cried.

"Be good, don't cry, I will protect you, no one can hurt you." Holding Yuki's petite body, feeling her uneasiness and fear, the anger in the heart of the night is slowly burning, no matter who dares to make the girl cry like this, then be ready to die!

For a long time, under the appeasement of the night, Xingcai finally recounted everything in a choked voice.

Listening to her words, whether it was Kiriko, Asuna, or Nightfall, they all felt extremely angry.

"I'm going to kill them right now!" Kiriko immediately pulled out the long sword behind her back, and was about to rush out to fight the enemy, but before she could run two steps, she was dragged back by the Night Dead.

"Calm down, Xiaotongzi, what's the use of you going, can you beat more than a dozen people on the other side?" Nightshade scolded in a deep voice.

"That's it, Kiriko, and after such a long time, I guess they have already run away." Asuna also persuaded.

"What then? Is it just to watch the murderer go unpunished? Keita: They died in such an unknown way! It seemed that the words of the two had an effect, and Kiriko calmed down a little, but she still said angrily.

"Whew~" Nightshade exhaled deeply, as if he wanted to exhale all the unhappiness in his heart, and then slowly raised his head and said coldly, "Don't worry, Xiaotongzi, leave the rest to me, they ...... Not a single one of them can run! ”

A murderous aura that was so thick that it burst out from Nightfall's body, instantly filling every inch of space, and the air became cold and stagnant.

Simply enough, this murderous aura was fleeting, and for the three of them, it was just that they suddenly felt cold around them, and then they returned to their original state. They didn't take it seriously because they didn't know what murderous anger was, they just thought it was an illusion.

"By the way, Kiriko, I was still discussing tomorrow night's event with Asuna." Seeing that Kiriko and Yuki were still a little unable to lift their spirits, Night Death suddenly spoke.

"Activities? What's going on? Kiriko seemed a little lacking in interest, at this time she was full of how to find the murderer to help Keita and them take revenge, and she really couldn't lift her spirits about such a thing.

"Tomorrow night, there will be a hidden boss on the thirty-fifth floor, and that boss will drop an item that can revive the player......"

"Really, then I've got to get that item." Before Nightshade could finish speaking, Kiriko jumped up and said loudly.

"Is there really such a prop? That's great. Fortunately, she was also excited, for her who had just lost her companion, this news was undoubtedly nectar from heaven.

After basically understanding the details and general location of the event, Kiriko immediately ran away with a look of energy, saying that she was going back to prepare for tomorrow's battle.

"Is that really good?" Looking at Kiriko's distant back, Asuna couldn't help asking, "Didn't you say that that prop should only work for a short time?" Even if we get the props tomorrow, Keita and the others have been dead for a day......"

"Who knows, maybe my guess will be wrong?" Nightshade smiled, turned around and walked towards the house, "In any case, it's better to have hope than no hope, so for that faint hope, work hard, perhaps, the real hope will appear in front of you!" (To be continued.) )
