Chapter 127: Target, Titan's Hand
"It's not too early, let's get out of here as soon as possible. I heard that this forest has a special situation, that is, at night, the strength of monsters may increase significantly, but the amount of things obtained by killing them will not increase. Ling Yun suggested.
"Hmm." Sirika, who had just walked on the edge of life and death, obviously had a certain fear of this forest, and nodded on the side when she heard Ling Yun's voice.
"Who?" Ling Qi's face suddenly turned grim, and he pulled out the gun on his waist and aimed it at a dense forest.
Ling Yun frowned slightly, and then reached for the long sword behind him. Recently, Ling Qi's perception ability seems to have improved dramatically, and even the ability to seek enemies in this world has been improved to the point of approaching the full level, and it is easier than Ling Yun to detect people or objects hidden in the dark.
There was a "bang", and there was a noise in the dense forest, and then a black figure came out of it.
"Kiriko, why are you here?" After seeing the person clearly, Ling Yun said helplessly. "Aren't you supposed to be fighting in the labyrinth in normal times?"
Seeing that it was Kiriko, Ling Qi quickly withdrew his pistol.
"It's nothing, it's just a little whim today, I just wanted to walk around the floor below, but I ran into another thing, I didn't expect to meet you here." Kiriko spread her hands a little embarrassed. "However, Ling Qi, when did your ability to seek enemies improve so high, obviously my concealment is quite high, and I am also well hidden, I didn't expect to be discovered by you at a glance."
"This is a secret, and it is very rude to ask a lady about her secret." Ling Qi put the index finger of his right hand in front of his lips and said with a smile.
"Forehead......" Kiriko is still a little uncomfortable with Ling Qi's state.
"Let's go first, there's already bad guys coming up in the dark." Ling Qi looked at the forest hidden in the darkness and proposed.
"Let's go, Kiriko, come with you!" Ling Yun took out the transfer crystal.
35th Floor of Ayn Grant, Michi.
In a tavern, the four of them sat at the same table.
"Kiriko, you said before that you went to the Night Forest because you ran into something. What the hell is going on? Ling Yun asked.
"Well, that's it. When I came back from the front, I met a man there, and that man was the head of a small guild called the Silver Banner. This guild was attacked by an orange guild called the 'Titan Hand' some time ago, and all the valuable things on its body were robbed. Thanks to them, when the members of this guild returned to the town, they were almost wiped out by the monsters, and only their leader fled back to the town under the desperate cover of the other members. Kiriko's face was a little gloomy.
"How could this be?" Celica's face was ugly.
"This world is no longer the original world, and there is no legal protection, and it is inevitable that such wicked people will appear." Ling Yun sighed, reached out and touched Sirika's head, and then looked at Kiriko. "This matter must have something to do with you! Well? Could it be that you promised that the president something? ”
"There's no way, although there is no such thing as law in this world, but someone has to come out to uphold justice. I just happened to run into it. Kiriko smiled. The president spent his savings and bought a cloister crystal, and the setting for the exit was the Black Iron Palace Prison. Although his guild members all died because of the Titan's Hand, his idea was only to let them go to prison, and that person was really kind! ”
Ling Yun secretly complained in his heart: "You said that the president is a kind person, so aren't you a bad person who took over this dangerous commission that has nothing to do with you?" ”
"Does this have anything to do with Sister Kiriko, you going to the Night Forest?" Celica asked a little curiously.
"I went to Argo's profiteer and found information about the guild from her. According to the records, the leader of this guild has been wandering around the 40th floor during this time, and it seems that he is looking for the next target, so I will come here to investigate. Kiriko replied.
"During this time, I haven't seen anyone with orange names in the Dark Night Forest!" Sirika said.
"The prisoner may not be an orange name!" Kiriko said to Sirika with a mysterious expression.
"Not necessarily an orange name?" Celica was a little confused.
"Kiriko, how much do you know about the strength of this Orange Name Guild?" Ling Yun asked.
Although in the original book, there are not many members of the Guild of the Titan Hand, and the combat effectiveness is not strong, and it is completely crushed in front of Kiriko. But this world has become a real world, and there are many more players entering this world, so it is inevitable that something will happen.
"The Hand of the Titans, this orange guild is still quite famous in SAO, the president is a woman, and there are more than twenty guild members, all of whom are men, and some of them have good combat effectiveness." Kiriko's face was a little solemn.
"More than twenty?" Ling Yun frowned slightly. "Can you handle it alone?"
"Defeat them, no problem!" Kiriko looked confident.
"So what if the other party wants to run? More than 20 people scattered and ran, can you catch up with them all? Ling Yun asked another question.
"This ......," there was a hint of hesitation on Kiriko's face. If the other party is within ten people, she is sure that none of them can escape. If the other party is a monster, she is also 100% sure that none of them will be able to escape. However, the opponent is a player with more than twenty people, and when facing her, there are definitely people who can run away by transferring crystals.
"Why be on your own? When the time comes, we'll go together! Ling Yun spread his hands, "We'll take Sirika to the Hill of Memories tomorrow, you go with us, and then we'll go to serve this Orange Guild together." ”
"Well, well." Kiriko pondered for a while and nodded slightly.
It was already late at night, and Sirika had already gone to sleep, and Ling Yun and Ling Qi quietly knocked on the door of the room where Kiriko was.
"What's wrong, Lingyun." Kiriko opened the door and yawned at the same time.
"I have a message from the Orange Guild President, would you like to hear it?" Ling Yun smiled.
"Really?" Kiriko suddenly came to her senses, "Come in." ”
"You said before that the leader of the Titan Hand Guild is called Rosaria, right?" Ling Yun asked.
"Hmm." Kiriko nodded.
"I've heard Sirika say before that when she was teaming up during this time, there was always someone in her team who was against her, and that person was also named Rosaria. If my guess is correct, this person is likely to be the president of the Titan's Hand! Ling Yun said.
"Rosalia and she have been teaming up for the past few days?" Kiriko frowned slightly. "Shouldn't it be that I'm probing Sirika's combat power, and then waiting for an opportunity to do it!"
"It's very likely that I heard Celika say before that the reason why she walked through the Night Forest alone was caused by her anger with this woman!" Ling Qi nodded slightly. "And, because she didn't have to recover the crystal when she left, she lost her greatest help in the forest, the Molbina. Actually killed such a lovely demon, this woman, it's really unforgivable! ”
"Do you want to weaken the target's combat power as much as possible?" Kiriko thought of something else, "It seems that they may soon be able to do something to Sirika, and the most likely time is when they go to the Hill of Memories tomorrow!" ”
"Then tomorrow when these guys attack Sirika, let's catch them all!" Ling Yun said.
"Hmm." Ling Qi and Kiriko answered.
