Chapter 30 (490) The Sword of the Vulcan
Cardinal is the highest authority in the game and is constantly monitoring what's happening in the game.
Theoretically, there are no cheats in this game, and that's Cardinal's credit. Because once there is abnormal data, it will be detected by Cardinal immediately and then repaired.
The flaming sword summoned by Yui is called: Sword of Vulcan. It is a top-notch item in the reward system distributed to players after the SAO game is fully cleared.
Of course, it is not so easy to obtain this item, provided that the 100th floor of Aingrant is cleared, and the reward system launched by the system requires players to collect a large number of materials, as well as a very low probability of blueprints, find the hidden dwarven blacksmith in the game, and spend a lot of money to create this top-level weapon.
Of course, this is a matter of late in the game, and now the entire SAO has not even reached the eighty floors, and this weapon only exists in the game's database.
Yui is a high-level GM, so she has the authority to summon any item. However, summoned items can only be used in a way that does not interfere with the player's normal gameplay.
Therefore, Chu Yue hurriedly rushed over to stop Yui before she could attack the boss.
Because, if Yui is used now, if this weapon is used, it will definitely be detected by Cardinal.
Using weapons that meet the conditions to help players with boss strategies is already a violation of the rules of the game and beyond Yui's GM authority.
Although Yui will not be eliminated by Cardinal, it will kill the "entity" Yui that exists in Aingrant, restore the data to the system management area, and "imprison" Yui again.
"Dad......" Yui looked at Chu Yue who fell down to her blankly, and tears suddenly flowed out for some reason.
"Chu Yue! Yui! Asuna suddenly shouted.
Chu Yue didn't think about it, hugged Yui and rolled around on the ground directly, and stood up with Yui in her arms.
Sure enough, the boss behind him slashed the scythe where Chu Yue and Yui were just now.
Since Yui summoned the sword of the god of fire, it means that Yui's memory has now recovered.
"Yui, I'll talk about it later, wait for us to hit the boss first." Chu Yue still stared at the boss tightly and said.
"Okay, Dad." Yui smiled and nodded at Chu Yue with tears in her eyes.
"Are you alright?" Asuna asked.
"It's okay! Be careful, Asuna," Chu Yue said, "and if we have just now, we will really die......"
"Yes!" Asuna answered, staring at the boss sternly.
It may be because it is relatively close to Chu Yue, and the main hatred should also be on Chu Yue, so the boss immediately launched an attack on Chu Yue again.
Now the boss has a lot of blood, so he doesn't use skills, just makes ordinary attacks on players, but even so, it's not something that Chu Yue and Asuna can afford.
Dodging the boss's attack again, Chu Yue suddenly noticed that the sword of the god of fire summoned by Yui was still lying quietly on the other side, not disappearing!
Chu Yue suddenly thought of a possibility, ignored the boss, and rushed directly towards the Sword of the Fire God.
"Chu Yue! What are you doing! Asuna saw Chu Yue's unreasonable behavior and immediately shouted.
The boss's head slowly turned with Chu Yue's movements, and then raised his scythe, ready to attack Chu Yue again.
The Sword of the Fire God was already too late for Chu Yue......
The boss's scythe is raised.
Chu Yue did not hesitate to pounce ahead and grab the sword of the Fire God.
The BOSS's scythe hooked diagonally towards Chu Yue.
Chu Yue picked up the sword of the god of fire, and before he could stand up, he immediately threw the sword at his side.
Bite!!
The scythe slashed against Vulcan's sword with a loud metallic sound.
"Whew-" Chu Yue couldn't help but breathe a sigh of relief.
"Daddy! You ...... with that! Yui found that Chu Yue was about to use the Vulcan Sword she had summoned, and just wanted to stop it, but Chu Yue had already raised the Vulcan Sword and rushed towards the boss.
The Vulcan Sword is an item that does not meet the conditions, no matter who uses it, it will be detected by Cardinal!
However, Chu Yue had already rushed to the BOSS, jumped up, raised the Fire God's Sword that was burning hotly, and slashed towards the BOSS.
The boss immediately put the sickle horizontally in front of him, blocking Chu Yue's attack.
And yetβ
After holding each other for less than a second, under the huge attack power of the Flame Divine Sword, the BOSS's scythe was actually split by Chu Yue, and the Flame Divine Sword emitted dazzling flames and continued to slash towards the boss's head.
Under the scattered sparks and brilliant fire effects, the boss let out a loud piercing scream, and then the entire body was wrapped in flames into a ball.
After a few seconds, the boss dissipates into fragments of sparks along with the fireball.
"Daddy!"
This time, he changed into a Yui and pounced on Chu Yue, knocking Chu Yue to the ground.
"What are you doing, Dad! You should know the conditions for the appearance of the Flame Excalibur! Why should you use it? Yui cried while hugging Chu Yue's waist and rubbing her tears onto Chu Yue's body.
"This, what the hell is this......" And Asuna also walked over, looking at Chu Yue and Yui with some confusion.
"Mom, Mommy......" Yui cried to Asuna, "Daddy, Daddy, he's going to be killed as a cheat......"
"What ?!!" Asuna froze.
"Okay, okay, calm down, calm down!" After the battle with a high concentration of nerves just now, Chu Yue finally breathed a sigh of relief and said, "I won't be killed by Cardinal, don't worry." β
"Huh?" Asuna was stunned again.
"Daddy liars!" Yui immediately said, "Dad knows better than I ......"
"Yui." Chu Yue touched Yui's head vigorously, rubbing Yui's hair, then smiled and said, "Let's go to the safe area over there first, and I'll explain it to you." β
"Hmm......" Yui nodded with her hands on her head.
Chu Yue stood up with Yui in her arms, then put Yui on the ground, and then cut through the system bar, and put the Vulcan Sword in the inventory as a prop.
The three of them looked at each other, then walked together towards the glowing safety zone.
This glowing room is a safe zone for the player, but for the GM, it's a control room, with the black table in the middle being the console. However, for the average gamer, the console is just a seat for resting.
Yui can summon the sword of the god of fire, and it is this console that is used.
However, Yui itself has the authority to summon props, but it is Chu Yue who really uses props.
In other words, Cardinal will detect Yui, but it will not find any abnormalities in Yui, but it will immediately detect Chu Yue.
"Chu Yue, Yui, what the hell is this?" Asuna looked at Chu Yue and Yui with doubts.
"Remember? Yui is actually GM. Chu Yue said.
"I almost forgot about ......," said Asuna, "but I remembered what had just happened, but ......"
"I'll tell you." Yui said, "Dad, Mom, since you already know about me, but you don't know yet, why did I appear in the forest on the twenty-second floor, right?" β
"Yes." Chu Yue said, "I remember, you should just be a system module, although I made the settings, but Yui should have no entity." β
"Hmm." Yui nodded, "Dad, it's the person who created me, and he often helps me, I know all of this." β
"Huh? Helping often? Asuna interjected.
"Mom, remember what I was developed for?" Yui said.
"Purpose...... Mental management of players? Asuna said, immediately reacting, "Ah! In this way, Chu Yue often helps players and writes "Hope" to restore the spirit of players, all of which are helping you? β
"Don't say I'm doing those things to help Yui." Chu Yue said, "The ultimate purpose is to help the player, not to help Yui. However, Yui was originally developed to help players stabilize their spirits, so there is nothing wrong with it. β
"Yes." Yui nodded, "After the game's open beta, I was supposed to help players who had mental breakdowns, committed suicide, and gave up their lives, but ......"
"Cardinal, limit your behavior." Chu Yue said.
"Yes." Yui nodded, "It's worthy of Dad!" Actually know this! I don't know why, Cardinal restricts my ability to help players, so I can only monitor and not interfere with ......"
"Everyone's spirit...... Honestly, it's terrible. Although there is a dad and many other players who are helping everyone, the overall mental state is still terrible. β
"However, I noticed that there are some players who are not in the same state of mind as others, they are as clear as a bright moon in the twinkling starry sky, joyful, calm, bright, and warm."
"After I paid attention to it, I realized that these players are all people who have a good relationship with my father. Dad, it's like a bright sun, no matter who it is, it will be illuminated and warmed by Dad...... After spending some time with your father, you will immediately feel confident in life. β
"Probably because, self-blame, and...... Grievances. Yui said, "Dad obviously created me to be able to stabilize everyone's spirit, but in the end, Dad did these things himself......
"I'......ve always wanted to help my dad and help everyone," Yui said, sobbing.
"It's okay...... Chu Yue hugged Yui in her arms and said, "Dad knows, Yui-chan, I've worked hard." Dad knows it. β
"Dad......" Yui also hugged Chu Yue.
Father and daughter (with or without quotation marks?) The two hugged each other very warmly......
Asuna next to her was also infected, and reached out to hug Chu Yue and Yui on the other.
"So, I've always wanted to go to my dad." Yui continued.
Chu Yue and Asuna let go of Yui and saw that Yui was no longer crying.
"I've always, always wanted to go to my dad's." Yui said, "So, after trying and trying many times, finally, I appeared in the forest on the twenty-second floor. β
"But, I also paid for it - I lost my memory."
"But Dad seems to know everything." Yui said, "With my father and mother, my life during this time is really happy......
"Yui ......" Asuna didn't know what to say.
"But...... It's too late......" Yui suddenly lowered her head again.
"Huh?" Asuna looked at Yui strangely.
"After I recovered my memory from the battle just now, I originally wanted to sacrifice myself and defeat the boss, but I was stopped by my father...... "Yui said, "I, I only summoned the sword of the god of fire that cannot be used. β
"The Vulcan sword?" Asuna tensed, "What the hell is it?" Why is it too late? β
"I'll explain that." Chu Yue said, "The Sword of the Vulcan is actually one of the top weapons and equipment developed for the later stages of the game, and it should be in an unlocked state in the system now. β
"However, Yui is a GM and has the power to summon any game items, however, the Vulcan Sword cannot be used. Otherwise, Yui would have been recognized by Cardinal as a foreign object, in other words, killed. β
"The sword of the Vulcan cannot be used, then Chu Yue, you just ......" Asuna immediately noticed the key information in Chu Yue's words.
"That's right......" Chu Yue said, "I'm also going to be tested by Cardinal......"
When Chu Yue said this, a faint golden light suddenly emitted from Yui's body.
"Well, Cardinal started testing...... "Yui said.
The faint golden light quickly disappeared, and immediately after, a golden light also appeared on Chu Yue's body.
"Chu Yue! No! Asuna hugged Chu Yue, "You don't want to die!" β
Originally, Yui also wanted to go over and hug her father, but seeing that Chu Yue was still smiling as usual, coupled with Chu Yue's performance along the way, Yui immediately understood that Chu Yue must have done this for a reason!
Sure enough, after the golden light disappeared from Chu Yue's body, Chu Yue didn't have anything to do at all.
"It's okay, it's okay." Chu Yue also rubbed Asuna's head vigorously, and messed up Asuna's head.
"Chu, Chu Yue!" Asuna looked at Chu Yue's face in surprise, then let go of Chu Yue, and looked Chu Yue's whole body up and down: "Are you okay?!" β
"Dad, how did you do it...... Yui couldn't help but ask.
"Chu Yue, you already knew that you would be fine?!" Asuna said.
"Of course." Chu Yue smiled, "Although I'm not very sure, but if you want to move me, I'm afraid Cardinal doesn't have that permission!" β
"Huh?" Asuna and Yui looked at each other strangely, and then stared at Chu Yue together.
"Alas...... That's all that has been said, why don't you understand it? Chu Yue sighed and said, "I'm a game developer, and my account is a super administrator account." β
"Ahh Yui cried out in surprise, "Dad, it's a game developer...... Me, I forgot ......"
"Chu Yue, you, are a game developer, I know this, but ......" Asuna still said with some confusion, "Aren't all your administrator permissions banned by Akihiko Kayaba?" β
"Mom, Dad's account is, super admin account." Yui explained to Asuna: "Super administrators are the core developers of SAO, and their accounts are the low-level, core content development of all SAO content...... Even Cardinal is the most privileged system developed by super administrators. β
"Let's put it simply." Chu Yue said, "Even if all the permissions of my administrator account are deprived, my account is still an administrator account. Cardinal, on the other hand, is part of the game itself, and he certainly doesn't have access to the admins who wrote it. β
"It's like computer software never affects the programmer itself, right?" Yui said to Chu Yue with a smile with an expression of "Dad praise me".
"It's not the same, but Yui describes it greatly!" Chu Yue also said with a smile to Yui.
"Hara, that's how it ......" Asuna finally relaxed and let out a long breath.
"Great, Dad." Yui said to Chu Yue.
"Hmm." Chu Yue nodded.
The three of them were ready to go back for a while, and if they didn't go back, Sasha, Yuriyer, and Xinka would be worried to death.
The first floor of Ayn Grant, the town of the beginning, inside the church.
"Chu Yue! Miss Asuna! Seeing Chu Yue and the others, Sasha immediately ran over happily, "Great...... That's great...... You are all safe. β
"Are you alright?" Yuriel also ran over with Sinka and asked.
"Well, I made you worried, but fortunately it was okay in the end." Asuna replied.
"I'm so sorry, really...... In order to save me, you have been put in such a dangerous situation. Xinka said to Chu Yue and the others apologetically, "Thank you!" β
As he spoke, Xinka bent down deeply towards Chu Yue and the others.
"Thank you both!" Yuriel also bent down towards Chu Yue and Asuna.
"You two are so polite." Asuna hurriedly said, "We can't die without help, and besides, Mr. Shinka and Miss Yuriel are good people. β
"Well, just stop being as naΓ―ve as you used to." Chu Yue said, "If you can strangle a moth like the Tooth King, it will be the best thank you to me." β
"Please rest assured!" Xinka straightened up and said to Chu Yue, "After I go back, I will immediately tell all the PLA members of the matter, so that everyone can see the true face of the guy like the Tooth King!" Moreover, all the PLA in the future will be friends of Mr. Chu Yue and Miss Asuna! β
"I know what you want. But ......" Chu Yue said, "Don't mention the matter of the two of us." β
"Huh? Why ......" Yuriel said, "Although we ALF are not as strong as the Blood Alliance, we are ...... in terms of numbers."
"It's because there are too many of you ALF people that I don't let you talk about it." Chu Yue said lazily, "I'm most afraid of trouble, if you ALF people know, I'm afraid it will spread to the streets and alleys, and I don't know what it will be." When the time comes, I don't know what will happen. β
"Miss Yuliel, Mr. Sinka." Asuna also said, "Chu Yue is right, we already understand the intentions of the two of you, but please don't talk about us." If you really want to repay us, please do your duty to the PLA and help the majority of players who are still in the SAO. β
Xinka and Yuriel looked at each other and nodded.
"I see." "We're going to work harder." β
Chu Yue nodded.
"Okay, here's a rare opportunity, let's have a meal together tonight!" Sasha clapped her hands and proposed.
"Good! It just so happens that I haven't eaten in a long time, and I'm hungry, haha! Sinka immediately agreed.
"Although there are still many things going on in the guild, of course it's okay if it's just a meal." Yuriel also said with a smile.
"Well, I think it's pretty good, what about Chu Yue?" Asuna asked Chu Yue.
"Everyone agrees, how can I spoil everyone's fun!" Chu Yue also said with a smile.
Night was fast approaching.
Sasha is the "principal" of the "elementary school", and even if it is a dinner, she can't leave the children alone, so she came to the restaurant with a group of children.
Fortunately, there are a lot of people in the starting town, and there are also many restaurants opened by players, and there are player restaurants that can entertain so many children.
At the party at night, Yuriel and Asuna chatted happily, while Sasha kept chatting with Chu Yue.
And Xinka, probably because the children knew that he was the president of ALF, and they had been playing tricks on him...... Sinka has always been helpless.
After the dinner was over, Sinka and Yuriel went back. Because Chu Yue, Asuna, and Yui were close, they sent Sasha and a group of children back to the church before they were ready to leave the town of Origin and go home.
Back at home, as usual, Asuna took care of Yui first and went to sleep first, and then returned to the living room and saw Chu Yue sitting on the sofa, looking at the newspaper she bought on the road.
This newspaper is issued by players, and it is dedicated to players in the first tier to see the progress of the strategy group at the forefront of the game.
"How's the front line?" Asuna walked over and sat beside Chu Yue and asked.
"It's still the same." Chu Yue said, "There are a lot of members of the strategy group, even if the two of us are not there, the progress of the strategy group will not slow down." β
"That's right." Asuna smiled, and after thinking about it, she asked Chu Yue: "Chu Yue, the sword of the Vulcan that defeated the boss today......"
"Oh......" Chu Yue slashed open the item column, collected the newspaper, and took out the Sword of the Fire God.
Even in the safe zone, the Vulcan Sword still burns with flames.
"Can this sword be used normally?" Asuna asked.
"Theoretically, it's probably the only one I can use." Chu Yue said, "If you use it, you will be punished for using a plug-in." β
"Even if only Chu Yue can use it, it doesn't matter!" Asuna said, "Didn't Chu Yue think about using this sword for the strategy of defending the boss?" β
Chu Yue smiled and said, "Of course, Asuna, do you think I won't be able to think of it?" β
"However, Chu Yue never seemed to mention ......," Asuna said with some concern.
"Alas......" Chu Yue sighed, saw that there was tea she had made on the table, picked up the teacup and took a sip of tea, and then said:
"I didn't want to talk about it, but Asuna thought about it." Chu Yue said, "I'm afraid this weapon won't be used in the strategy battle against the affected boss." β
