A month after Akihiko Ashwaga's declaration of death, the "Monument of Life", a huge stone monument in the Black Iron Palace in the starting town, was engraved with the names of all players, and the deceased would be drawn with a horizontal line, indicating the time and cause of death, and there were already 2,000 people on it.

I still remember when it was just announced that I couldn't quit, someone actually went to destroy the world, digging floors and destroying buildings. Of course, the buildings in the town cannot be destroyed, and they are all in vain. There are a lot of people today who have come to terms with reality. However, there are still some people who are messing around, waiting for the strategy group to clear the customs. For these people, Dark Ye despises them from the bottom of his heart, and if he doesn't work hard, he thinks about getting something for nothing, even if he doesn't participate in the battle, there are forgers, tailors, merchants, and cooks who specialize in life skills, etc., who can also help people.

The players start out in four groups. First of all, about half of the number of people, who did not believe in the conditions proposed by Akihiko Kayaba and waited for outside rescue.

However, I don't know how long I waited, and the rescue still did not appear. Every day when I wake up from my sleep, what I see outside the window is never a blue sky, but a gloom covering the upper bottom of my head. And they couldn't live forever with the initial funds alone, and it wasn't long before they were forced to start taking action.

The second group makes up about 30% of all players. This group of about 3,000 people aims to help each other and actively survive. And their leader is the male administrator of Japan's largest online game information site. The players didn't have a name at first, but after they began to give all the participants uniforms, they began to be referred to by the sarcastic name "Army". His men were divided into several groups, working together to manage the items they had obtained, gather information, and then proceed to the labyrinth area where the raiders had access to the upper stairs. The leader's own group occupied the "Black Iron Palace" facing the central square of the starting town, and used it to hoard supplies and give various instructions to his group. The huge group didn't have a name at first, but after they began to give all the participants uniforms, it is unknown who began to refer to them by the sarcastic name "army".

The third group is presumed to be about 1,000 people, and this is the group of people who wasted Koll without planning in the first place, but couldn't muster up the energy to fight the monsters to get supplies, and their lives were in jeopardy.

By the way, even in the imaginary world of SAO, there are still two physiological needs: sleep and appetite.

Because the brain has no way to tell whether the sensory information it obtains comes from the real world or the imaginary world, it is only natural that players will want to sleep. When the player wants to sleep, they go to the hotel on the street, choose a suitable room according to their financial resources, and go in to rest. If you have a large amount of Koll (the currency of this world), of course, you can buy your own room in your favorite town, but that is not an easy amount to save.

As for appetite, many players find it incredible. I don't want to imagine what the state of my body would be like in the real world, but I think there is some way to force the body to give the nutrients it needs. In short, even if you eat here because you feel hungry, there is no way that there will be food in your stomach in the real world.

However, if you actually eat imaginary bread or meat in the game, you will feel empty and feel full. But the principle of these phenomena, I think we have to consult a brain expert.

On the other hand, as long as the feeling of fasting appears, if you don't eat, the feeling of hunger will never go away. Although Dark Ye felt that he would not die from a hunger strike, it was still a rather unbearable desire, so players still rushed into the restaurant run by the NPC every day, trying to stuff the virtual food into their stomachs. Although it is a bit redundant, it is worth mentioning that there is no need to excrete in the game. As for the problem of excretion in the real world, it is more undesirable to imagine than eating.

In towns, also known as "inside the safe circle", the system will automatically protect the players, so players cannot harm each other in any way. It's just that there is no such restriction outside the town. These Fallen gather in gangs and hide in areas outside of town or in labyrinths, attacking prey that is somehow more oily and less dangerous than monsters, i.e., other players.

The last team is a small group of about 50 players who are not part of the huge syndicate that is aimed at the Raiders, and the number is about 500 people. These groups are called "guilds", and they make good use of the mobility that the military does not have, to carry out real raids and combat enhancement operations.

In addition, there are very few people who choose the profession of a craftsman or a businessman. Although they were only about two or three hundred in size, they also formed their own guilds and practiced skills in order to earn the Kol needed for life.

The less than a hundred people left are the group to which Dark Ye belongs, a group of people known as "Lone Wanderers".

Now, Dark Ye and Shixiang have found a very sad thing, that is, their level cannot be improved. Because the first layer has reached a bottleneck similar to that in Xiuzhen, killing a wild monster doesn't even have one in ten thousand experience. However, there was also an unexpected thing, Shika obtained the "Second Knife Stream". Originally... Akihiko Kayaba refers to this when she says that there is potential.

The EXTRA skill that was supposed to belong to Kirito is now awarded to the player with the fastest reaction speed in all SAO - the Night Sword God Toka, the upper sword skill is the Star Burst Stream with a total of 16 combos, and the highest sword skill is the "Eclipse" with 27 combos.

This was the situation at the time.

After Shixiang received the system message, she shouted at Dark Ye, who was farming monsters: "Dark Ye, come here, what is this?" ”

Dark Ye heard Shika's call and smashed the monster in front of him to pieces, and then walked towards Shixiang and looked at Shixiang's data interface.

Dark Ye laughed when he saw the name, touched Shixiang's hair and said, "This is..."Erdaoliu" I didn't expect that you, Nizi, looked harmless to humans and animals, and was actually the player with the fastest reaction speed in SAO. ”

Shixiang asked puzzledly: "Erdaoliu?" Then Dark Ye carefully explained the second knife flow to her.

For Dark Ye and Shixiang's monster farming day after day, there is naturally a harvest. The level has become the highest of all players, and the most important thing is that the equipment has been refurbished.

PS: I made up the name and introduction of the weapon myself, because there are not too many detailed weapons in the sword, and I am also helpless. root
