Floor 55 - Iron City

There is a man who is as famous as Dawn here, the strongest man, living legends, paladins, etc., who have been given the title of Guild President of the Blood Alliance Knights, and it can be said that they cannot be counted on one hand.

His name was Heathcliff. He is known to Ayn Grant as the only owner of a unique skill out of about 6,000 players.

Of course, they didn't know about Shika's double knife flow, but Na Nizi didn't know how to use double knives at all, so she could only waste Akihiko Aoba's design in vain and keep it for decoration.

After receiving the private message from the system, the corners of Heathcliff's mouth showed a hint of playful arc: "Dawn, you really gave me too many surprises, my well-designed game, will it be cleared in less than a year?" But I haven't had enough of it. ”

Then use your left hand to draw out the system panel and enter the administrator management system......

[Guys, now someone has broken through the ninety-ninth floor, that's the dawn of your hope and a certain Rapier woman, and I'm here to post a message, I, Akihiko Kayaba, is Heathcliff, thank you for playing with me for so long, now, let's start our last stop, Dawn!]

Hundredth Floor - Unknown

"Asuna, are you ready?"

Asuna nervously looked at the gate that she had seen many times, but thinking that this was the last pass, she couldn't help but get nervous.

"I... Let's go. ”

Well, then, Dark Ye familiarly pushed open the door.

The large amount of light that spilled from the door made the two of them squint.

After getting used to it for a while, he slowly opened his eyes. Inside is a circular room that uses an entire floor of space in the upper tower, and the walls are all transparent glass on all sides. The grey light that filtered in through the glass gave the room the same hue.

Asuna looked at the red carpet on the ground and froze in place.

Dark Ye shook Asuna lightly, and said with concern, "What's wrong?" ”

Asuna's tone trembled slightly: "This is the arrangement of the Blood Alliance Knights, it is exactly the same. ”

Looking at the girl's overwhelmed appearance, Dark Ye secretly said in her heart: Didn't she see the system message? Or maybe she doesn't believe it. Yes, who would want to believe that the big hero in the world suddenly became the biggest boss?

Dark Ye looked at Heathcliff, who was sitting behind the round table, and his tone was slightly mocking.

"You're a bad taste."

Heathcliff clapped his hands and got up, and replied with a smile: "No way, who made me love this union?" ”

Asuna's eyes were already full of tears, and Dark Ye stretched out her hand, gently helped the girl wipe away the tears from the corners of her eyes, and said gently: "Asuna, you stand back, this is the war between us." ”

She knew that she couldn't help much, but would drag Dark Ye down and retreat to the gate.

Dark Ye's eyes were cold, he pulled out the Huolin Sword and disappeared in place.

It's not those monsters and minions this time.,Although I'm standing at the pinnacle of this game now.,But I don't think I can compare to this open-minded person.。

Heathcliff perfectly blocked Darkye's slash, and due to the huge reaction force, Darkleaf was bounced away a few meters.

With one hand on the ground, the calf bounced up again.

“pang～”

A huge crash sounded, and Heathcliff's great shield once again perfectly blocked Dark Ye's Fire Lin Sword.

Rub, he didn't even move his body, let's hang it.

Heathcliff looked at the dark Ye a few meters away, and the steadiness of his eyes was like that of the Creator.

"Ahh

Dark Ye sprinted with all his strength against the height of the floor, and in an instant he ran over this distance, and the Fire Lin Sword in his right hand stabbed upwards as it spun.

Just as the sword was about to pierce into his chest, a strong impact was transmitted from the sword to Dark Ye's arm, and the golden flash exploded, and the shield spread out a golden ball of light to envelop him, without any gaps.

"Hey, aren't you cheating?"

"What's the matter, that's all there is to it, I don't know how you attacked it, this is the boss, who said I can only use the player's skills?" Heathcliff kept smiling as if he had taken it for granted.

Darkye took a few steps back, walking in an invisible circle around Heathcliff's side.

Heathcliff closed his eyes and waited for Darkye to perform a "miracle".

Asuna was at the door, holding her hands on her chest and pinching the fabric on her chest, her eyes revealing infinite worry.

Looking at the soldier in red, a chill appeared behind Dark Ye, what was this "scientist" who had killed so many people for?

"What did you create this game for?"

Heathcliff was silent for a moment, then replied with a wry smile, "Why, it seems like I've forgotten it for a long time." What is it for? When I learned about the development of a fully stealthy environment system, no, I should say that I started much earlier, and I lived to create that city, that world that transcended all the frameworks and regulations of the real world. And then, at the last moment, I saw something that transcended the laws of the world that I had created......"

"Haha......ha

A cold light flashed in the eyes of the dissatisfied kid who looked up to the sky and laughed wildly: "Hey, is it funny?" ”

Dark Ye is just to delay time, and he is constantly thinking about how to defeat him: the speed of his own monster farming is completely suppressed by rank, and now the opponent is Heathcliff, a real person, and he is still a wall, and the level is naturally useless, or it is crushed. And sword skills, although I learned some from Shixiang, but Shixiang used to rely mainly on spiritual power, and systematic sword skills? He was waiting, waiting for me to perform the system's prescribed combo.

In the original book, Kirito couldn't kill him even if he used the double knife flow, but he still sacrificed Asuna to hit him, and he couldn't sacrifice himself...

Thinking of this, Dark Ye heard a scream.

"Be careful!"

When he came back to his senses, Heathcliff looked at him with his greatsword, less than a foot away, already... It's too late.

The Grass Field Sword was raised high above the sobbing Dark Ye. The blade of his sword glowed a dark red. Then the sword descended on Dark Ye's head with a blood-colored light.

A figure rushed into Heathcliff's longsword with a crimson glow at great speed, and in the middle of the dark light that stood on the spot, he could see chestnut-colored hair flying in the air.

"Asuna!"

Asuna was slashed from head to chest by Heathcliff, who showed surprise and stopped moving, taking a few steps back.

"I'm sorry, Shuguang, it seems that you mandarin ducks can go to Huangquan together."

Looking at Heathcliff's sincere face, Dark Ye clenched his hands, and then hugged Asuna who had fallen.

The sunset, the grassland, the breeze, and the weather made it feel a little chilly.

The Asuna HP bar in her arms was disappearing at a breakneck speed, and she was holding his hand tightly...

Dark Ye's tears couldn't stop falling, and Asuna in her arms had a quiet smile on her face, staring into her eyes full of infinite love. Although I don't need to say much at this moment, I just need to hug her tightly, but I can't help but ask.

"Why?"

Asuna's lips moved slightly: "Because you are hope, you are the dawn..."

"I'm sorry." After saying this, his lips were still moving desperately, but they were covered by the sound effect of his body disappearing. Finally, the body was covered with golden light, turning into particles of light and scattering little by little.

Holding on to the last glimmer of hope, Dark Ye muttered in a trembling voice: "System, Asuna can still wait for me like the original book, right?" ”

[The original ARGUS company was dissolved due to the SAO compensation issue, and RECTProgress took over the operation of SAO.] In the same month, RECTProgress launched Amusphare, and the new VR game ALfheimOnline began to operate, that is, there was no time to study the technology in the original book, and Asuna had not yet been noticed. ]

"You TM get to the point."

[Asuna is dead.] ]

The voice of the system appeared in his head after a long absence, but he couldn't be happy anyway.

"Boy, oh no, Dawn, have you sorted out your mood? Turn your anger into power. ”
