This novel, to tell you the truth, I lack care.

－－－－－－－－－－－

After the crowding of the transfer door passed, there was not much traffic in the central square, and the black-haired and black-clothed swordsman did not attract too many people to wait and see.

The Sealer, this title with a strong irony still falls on Kirito's head, and the obvious black outfit can easily attract people's attention, but fortunately, there are not many people in the central square at the moment, and naturally, no one will notice that the famous Sealer appears in front of the transfer gate of Casal City on the sixth floor.

As an escort, Argo was lucky to avoid an attention-grabbing salute.

"Argo, if you want to find him, why don't you send an email directly?" Kirito cautiously glanced around, making sure that no one was paying attention to this side and then said with some resentment.

Because Tilberu survived, and he didn't hand over the Midnight Knight Coat, the spread of the name of the cheater was even more turbulent, which can be described as even worse than the original plot, as soon as Kirito appeared in the crowd, he inevitably had to bear the fingers, and even a few players spurned like abuse.

"If you send it directly, it's going to be a little less fun." Argo shook his head, a smile on his lips, and walked down the steps, towards the cracks of several buildings not far away.

Kirito looked at Argo's back, thinking about the word fun, and couldn't help but feel an inexplicable chill in his back.

"Soar into the sky... Do it yourself. ”

After a pause, Kirito thought of his situation, scratched his head in annoyance, and honestly followed Argo.

……

Level 6 - Shaded Path.

This is the name of the forest that occupies half of the area of the sixth layer, and the forest is named after the path, what is the secret in it, Wang Yang has no way of knowing, and Asuna, who did not participate in the closed test, directly ignored the name of the forest, as a game novice, such a reaction is normal.

However, Wang Yang has played a lot of online games, and he has a wisp of curiosity about the vast forest area in front of him, especially the name Shadow Path.

"Hmm..." Wang Yang touched his chin and stood at the intersection of the forest and muttered.

"Don't you go in?" Asuna looked confused.

"Of course you have to go in."

Wang Yang mentioned the sword and shield, no longer thinking about the name of the shadow path, and walked ahead first.

The distribution of plain areas and forest areas is like black and white in the gossip, this white is the plain, and black is the forest, each taking up half of it.

Black is the main color of the shadow path, each plant is mainly light gray and dark, whether it is branches or leaves, here, there is no so-called green, in it, giving people an inexplicable sense of oppression, as if the branches and leaves stretched out are like ghost hands in a horror movie.

The dark tone affects the line of sight and light, but the presence of "seeking the enemy" is negligible.

But even so, the sense of oppression brought by the environment made the two of them subconsciously think that the monsters in the forest should be very powerful, naturally, the pace of progress slowed down, and at the same time carefully paid attention to the movements around them.

When he entered the forest, Wang Yang understood the origin of the shadow path, because the two of them were standing on the so-called shadow path at the moment, where the path to walk was covered with shadows, and around them were strange trees with teeth and claws, which were really like dead trees if they did not have leaves.

After experiencing the darkness of the labyrinth, the two have a certain degree of immunity to this terrifying scene.

After walking for about ten minutes, the proficient "Seeking Enemy" suddenly gave a hint, and Wang Yang stopped, and so did Asuna.

Two meters in front of the pale gray tree, two looming black shadows appeared, as well as marks representing monsters.

Wang Yang looked at the two black shadows that couldn't be seen clearly, frowned, and the enemy couldn't expose the other party completely, indicating that these two monsters have high hiding skills, and the role of hiding skills is to sneak attack, and the side shows that the two-headed monsters two meters away should be biased towards high attack type monsters.

"I'll try the depth first."

Wang Yang moved towards the big tree step by step, and Asuna nodded, ready to support at any time.

In a new area, a high level of precaution can often avoid many dangers.

As the distance shortened, the role of seeking the enemy became more and more obvious, and Wang Yang could almost see the outline of the monster attached to the big tree, however, at this moment, the two black shadows attached to the trunk of the tree moved, and attacked Wang Yang like cannonballs.

Wang Yang, who had been prepared for a long time, was in danger, and his keen dynamic vision accurately saw the trajectory and appearance of the black shadow.

Mantis!?

Such a term flashed through my mind, and it was immediately rejected because of the sharp object that stabbed me!

Wang Yang lifted the boar's confession and easily blocked the attack of the two monsters, and only then did he and Asuna clearly see the appearance of the monsters.

It has the same triangular head and body as a praying mantis, but the symbolic scythe has been replaced by two shiny sharp cones, and there are no wings.

"Is this a praying mantis?" Asuna was surprised.

The name of the cone mantis, suspended above the monster's head validates Asuna's words.

"It doesn't matter if it's a praying mantis or not." Wang Yang stared at the cone mantis, and said lightly: "At best, it's just to provide players with experience and prop data, and it didn't cause me damage after blocking the attack just now, so the attack shouldn't be high." ”

After speaking, he took the lead in rushing towards the two monsters, and the speed of the sneak attack was indeed fast, but it was not as fast as Asuna, so Wang Yang judged that the cone mantis was not a threat.

In fact, in the face of Wang Yang's assault, the cone mantis had no ability to resist at all, and was killed by Wang Yang alone in a few rounds, contributing a lot of experience points.

Cone Mantis, the trouble lies in the attack launched in the hiding state, the average player has to withstand an attack before they can start a normal battle with the Cone Mantis, but Wang Yang with the help of dynamic vision, defended the first sneak attack, the advantage is that he can hunt the Cone Mantis all the time, without stopping halfway to rest and recover HP.

Here's the difference.

Efficiency is the advantage!

Asuna pursed her lips dissatisfied, Wang Yang's injury was too high, so she didn't have a chance to make a move, although she got experience, it was like eating white food.

"The amount of blood is not high, and the defense is not outstanding, but it can be used as a long-term leveling point."

Wang Yang turned off the experience box displayed, his face was flushed with joy, and he turned to Asuna and proposed, "Looking for a good refresh point?" ”

"Okay." Asuna simply responded.

Level is one of the necessary factors to enhance oneself, and with teammates like Wang Yang who can defend and attack, the efficiency of leveling is completely comparable to a complete squad formation.

……

Outside the shadow path, Tilberu led a team including him here, a total of forty-eight people, that is, the elite strategy team.

"Okay, let's go, try to win the boss of this layer." Tilberu grimaced his hand.

The crowd standing behind him heard the words and entered the shadow path in a mighty way.

Giving up all the possibilities that can be developed in Casal City, Tilberu directly led the team to open up the wasteland, and its decisiveness can be seen, if nothing else, the boss of this layer will be taken down by the Knight Alliance, but the benefits may not be as high as other guilds.

Half an hour after the Knights entered, Argo and Kirito also came to the entrance of the Shadow Path.

"Coolie, lead the way." Argo patted Kirito on the shoulder, smiling brightly.

Kirito slapped Argo's hand away speechlessly, and walked ahead with his sword.

"Oh, I don't know if the treasure chest point during the closed beta period has changed, all in all, before you find Xiangkong, let's take a look along the way."

Argo clapped his hands as if he had suddenly remembered something.

Kirito, who was walking in front, almost fell down when he heard this, turned his head and glanced at Argo with resentment, and said quietly, "Are you so sure it's a way?" ”

Argo smiled and said: "Of course it's by the way, the theme is to find Mr. Xiangkong, as for the treasure chest, it's naturally by the way, that's right, it's by the way." ”

Profiteers...

Kirito shouted inwardly.
