"Let's go, the strategy meeting is about to begin."

"Hmm."

Asuna nodded, turned around and left the Black Iron Palace, walking towards the direction of the square.

"Hey, Asuna."

He Yuan ran a few steps quickly, side by side with Asuna, and looked sideways at Asuna.

Draw out the system bar, and in the team, transfer the captain to Asuna.

"Huh?"

Looking at the translucent frame that popped up in front of her, Asuna stopped, not knowing why.

"I remembered that there was something to do, you go to the meeting first." He Yuan explained: "If I'm not mistaken, the strategy boss may need to form a team, and the captain will be more convenient for you." ”

"Don't worry, I'll go to the square as soon as I'm done."

"Hmm."

……

"Hi ......"

In a semicircular square in Torbana, a man dressed in blue, with blue hair, a metal cuirass, a one-handed sword pinned to his waist, and a small shield with a small sword printed on his back, slapped his face, attracting the attention of the players sitting on the stairs around the square.

"Okay, so it's almost begins."

The man waved his hands, his eyes surrounded the square, and everyone's expressions were taken into his eyes, and the smile on his face made people feel warm.

"Thank you for being invited, I'm Diabel."

"Profession, self-righteous 'knight'."

Looking at Diabel, who squinted his eyes and hammered his chest with his right hand, the players around him couldn't help laughing.

"Hahahaha......"

"There's no career system, is there?"

"What kind of knight?"

"Was the meeting a joke too?"

"Get serious......"

His hands made a helpless gesture to the sides, and when the noise of the players subsided, Diabel's expression became serious.

"Today, our team found the boss's room on the top floor of that tower."

"Oh? Really? ”

Diabel's words caused an uproar among the surrounding players.

The players who can gather here will not be weak.

At the very least, they are all leveled in the maze area.

However, there are only a few people who can find the boss room.

It's just that the players who found it were all closed beta players, and they chose to keep it secret for the equipment dropped by the boss, and they didn't come out again after entering the boss room alone.

And the rest, it is estimated that only He Yuan and Asuna are left.

Therefore, everyone suddenly knew the news of the BOSS and fell silent.

"We have to defeat the boss and get to the second layer."

"Tell all of you who are still waiting in the Town of Beginnings that this game of death will end one day."

"This is our duty to gather here now!"

"Right? Everyone! ”

Diabel's voice fell, and the players on the stairs nodded to each other.

Those who can come at this time have a sense of responsibility.

"Pat at it!"

The applause was overwhelming.

Some people put their thumbs and index fingers together and put them in their mouths to whistle!

"Okay, then, without further ado, let's start the strategy meeting now."

"First of all, please form a team of six......"

"The boss of the defending layer is not something that ordinary teams can fight against."

"Assemble your team and form a wing......"

……

When He Yuan entered the square, the strategy meeting had just begun.

Looking up, on the penultimate floor of the stairs in the plaza, I saw Asuna in a crimson cloak, and Kirito who moved his ass to approach Asuna.

Jumping up the steps in a few steps, He Yuan also heard the conversation between Kirito and Asuna.

"Are you left alone?"

"I'm not alone."

"It's just that the people around me are acting like companions, so I avoid it."

Sitting on a staircase below the two of them, He Yuan raised his head, and a hint of disappointment flashed in his eyes.

"Yo, Asuna!"

This Kayaba Akihiko, the effect of the props is too good, right?

Looking at Asuna, whose nose was full of shadows, He Yuan complained in his heart.

"Well, you're done?"

"Well, I'm done, I've run a lot of places."

"Huh? Brother, are you too? He turned his head and pretended to have just found Kirito.

"Asuna, this little brother is the one who told me about the treasure chest in the labyrinth area last time, and I helped you a lot, brother."

Thumbs up to Kirito, He Yuan explained to Asuna.

"You ......"

Looking at He Yuan, Kirito's eyes were full of shock.

The robe on He Yuan's body, if he was not mistaken, was an extremely rare defensive prop.

During the closed beta period, Kirito once successfully conquered the seventh layer.

Therefore, as far as he knows, most of these rare props are dropped by killing bosses.

Could it be that the boss of the first layer has already been attacked?

However, if the boss is attacked, there should be a hint?

"Oh, that's what you say." He Yuan tugged at the "Night Robe" on his body, "Thank you, little brother, for your information, this is from the treasure chest." ”

"Oh." Kirito nodded, the things in the treasure chest, all appear randomly, if you are lucky, it is not strange to open rare items.

"By the way, brother, are you still alone?"

"I heard just now that the boss can't be attacked alone, do you want to team up together?"

"Uh~"

"Peace of mind, brother." Looking at Kirito who was a little hesitant, He Yuan waved his hand: "It's just this once." ”

"Well, okay." Kirito nodded, this was originally his plan, but it was just a two-person team to a three-person team.

Long......

"Uh, little brother, why are you looking at me?"

He Yuan originally wanted to whisper to Asuna, but what the hell did Kiritto keep staring at him?

You must know that although Kirito and Asuna are official matches, due to He Yuan's existence, Kirito has not had any intersection with Asuna in this month.

To tell the truth, He Yuan is really a little weak-hearted.

Could it be that this is the will of the great universe?

"Team up, team up." The word "well" appeared on Kirito's forehead.

"What about the invitation to form a team? Is that how you're teaming up with me? ”

"Uh, sorry sorry, sorry, the captain wasn't me......"

He Yuan snorted and turned his head: "Asuna, send this guy a team invitation." ”

“……”

Silence, and then—

"I won't!"

"Ahem, ahem......"

……

"Okay, everyone's almost all assembled, right?"

Seeing that everyone on the ladder had confirmed his teammates, Diabel continued to chair the strategy meeting.

"So ......"

"Wait a minute!"

Before Diabel could continue, a voice interrupted Diabel.

A man with yellow hair and a small mustache on his chin crossed a few steps from the top of the square, jumped into the middle of the square in twos and threes, and stood in front of Diabel.

"Lao Tzu is called the Tooth King, before I fight the boss, I have something to say."

"In this, someone has to apologize to the 2,000 people who died earlier."

Looking at the arrogant tooth king, He Yuan only felt a toothache.

"Is this guy a stupid fork?"
