When Luo Zhen chose to log out, he thought that he would immediately wake up on the bed in his room.

However, Luo was really wrong.

After a burst of brilliance, Luo Zhen found that not only did he not log out, but instead entered a space that was as dark as a black hole, but there was an incredible starlight flickering.

"This is...?"

Luo Zhen suddenly frowned.

But soon, Luo Zhen knew why he had entered this space.

The reason is simple.

"We know you have important things to do, but until then, let's get to the last touch."

Such a voice suddenly came from a far away place and reached Luo Zhen's ears.

And Luo Zhen's memory was suddenly awakened by this voice.

Because, this voice, Luo Zhen is quite familiar.

In the world of SAO, Luo Zhen has heard it many times.

"Akihiko Kayaba..."

The owner of the voice is none other than Akihiko Kayaba.

"Long time no see."

With such words, a figure in a white coat appeared in front of Luo Zhen as if he slowly walked out of the dark space.

Who else could it be but Akihiko Kayaba?

Luo Zhen looked at Akihiko Kayaba and narrowed his eyes.

"Unexpectedly, you have also come to this world."

Luo Zhen opened his mouth lightly.

Regarding the matter of Kayaba Jinghiko here, Luo Zhen really didn't think of it.

What Luo Zhen didn't expect was that Akihiko Kayaba would actually come into contact with him in this situation.

"Aren't you afraid of leaking some clues in front of me and being provided by me to the police, so that your whereabouts in the real world will be exposed?"

Luo Zhen said like he was smiling.

At present, the whereabouts of Kayaba Jinghiko are still a mystery, and the state has mobilized almost all forces to find and arrest the most vicious criminals since the founding of the People's Republic of China.

In such a situation, choosing to show up in front of Luo Zhen can only say that Kayaba Jinghiko is still the same Kayaba Jinghiko, full of courage.

It's just that in this matter, Luo Zhen actually thought wrong.

"Even if I am really found in the real world, it has nothing to do with who I am now."

Kayaba Jinghiko met Luo Zhen's gaze and replied to Luo Zhen with his magnetic and characteristic voice and calm face.

"It doesn't matter?"

Luo Zhen was stunned for a moment.

Looking at Luo Zhen like this, Kayaba Jinghiko opened his mouth lightly, just like Luo Zhen just now.

"I have decided a long time ago that when SAO collapses, I will end my life."

"On that day in November 2024, when the world called SAO collapsed, the existence that people called 'Akihiko Kayaba' died with it."

Hearing this, Luo Zhen's eyes narrowed slightly.

If that's the case, then what's going on with this Ikeba Akihiko in front of you?

Don't...

"Looks like you've guessed it." Akihiko Kayaba showed a rare smile and said, "Although I chose to die, before I died, I used the machine made after the modification of the complete stealth system to perform an ultra-high-density scan of my brain, so that the entire brain was scorched to death, just like those players who died in SAO. ”

When he said this, there was no guilt or guilt in Kayaba's tone, but it was as if he wanted to carry through the phrase "there is a beginning and an end" to the end.

Kill yourself by the same method as you kill the players who are involved in the death game.

Akihiko Aoba just wanted to illustrate this point.

The only difference is...

"There is less than a 1 in 1,000 probability that my scanning method can convert my own memories and thoughts, that is, the electrical response inside the brain, into digital codes, and turn my brain into a real computer, existing in the network."

Akihiko Kayaba spoke.

"Now I am nothing but an echo and afterimage of this existence called "Akihiko Kayaba"."

In view of this, Akihiko Aoba will say that how he is in the real world has nothing to do with his current self.

Because, in the real world, he is dead, and now he is an undead who only exists in the online world, the imaginary world, and the game world.

If others found out about this, they would be shocked and shocked.

However, as someone who has seen all kinds of mysterious and incredible phenomena, Luo Zhen is not surprised.

In a word...

"You escaped from the real world to the imaginary world, right?" Luo Zhen pursed his lips and said: "I've seen people who go abroad to escape crimes, I've even seen people who lurk in order to escape crimes, and I've never seen people who run from reality to the Internet in order to escape crimes, you have really created a new way to escape crimes." ”

Speaking of this, Luo Zhen's tone also carried a hint of sarcasm.

Akihiko Kayaba didn't care.

"The meaning of my existence was completed when the floating city collapsed, and since that is the case, I have no reason to stay in the real world."

Kayaba Akihiko raised his eyes and looked at Luo Zhen.

"If you hate me, for putting you and the people around you and 10,000 players in a game of death for two years of suffering, and you want to punish me and get me the punishment I deserve, then I can only say sorry to you."

That being said, Akihiko Kayaba is clearly unapologetic.

For this genius scientist, he was just doing what he was supposed to do, doing such a thing in order to fulfill his dream, and the feelings of guilt, guilt, and so on had long since been abandoned when he decided to do so.

Of course...

"It's not an apology, but as someone who once intersected with a sword, I'll give you this gift."

As she spoke, Akihiko Kayaba raised a hand.

In his hand, at some point, a glowing object appeared.

It was a very dazzling and dazzling crystalline body that seemed to have the universe in motion and a nebula flowing.

The crystals are egg-shaped and transparent, allowing people to clearly see the movement of the universe and the changes in the nebula inside.

As soon as Kayaba Jinghiko raised his hand, the glowing object flew out lightly and fell into Luo Zhen's arms.

"What is this?"

Luo Zhen subconsciously took it and asked in a daze.

"This is the seed of the world."

Akihiko Kayaba replied expressionlessly.

"The seed of the world?"

Luo Zhen thought thoughtfully.

Kayaba's voice became distant.

"I don't know if it can help you, and I don't know what kind of results it will bring."

"Now, I'll give it to you, and you can use it however you want."

"Hopefully, one day in the future, we will meet again in the corner of the imaginary world."

"Goodbye, then, hero."

As the words fell, Kayaba Akihiko's figure disappeared unconsciously.

Luo Zhen looked at the empty dark space, and after being silent for a while, the figure also disappeared.

As for the crystals in Luo Zhen's arms, they naturally left with them.

The dark space collapsed, turning this conversation into a dream.
