"Uh, it's you......"

Looking at the figure that appeared around the corner, He Yuan let down his guard.

If there is anyone in this world who can make He Yuan let down his guard, then this person is definitely one of them.

The protagonist of Sword Art Online, Kazuto Kiritani.

"Hmm."

Kirito obviously didn't expect to meet He Yuan here, and was stunned for a moment.

But then he reacted, since He Yuan knew the location of the maze area, it was not strange to stay in the maze area to level up.

"Brother, is it alone? Do you want to be together? ”

He Yuan's words are definitely from the heart, Kirito is not bad in terms of character or strength.

It's just that, following Kirito's gaze, He Yuan turned around and saw Asuna sleeping in the corner behind him.

With an inexplicable jump in his heart, he took a few steps back, completely blocking Kirito's gaze.

"Hehe......"

Some uncomfortable, and some inexplicably embarrassing.

"Well, we're on a team, she's nervous, and she hasn't been asleep for long."

"But it's okay, the captain is me, I can invite you directly!"

"Oh."

Kirito nodded, although he was a little tempted by He Yuan's invitation, but at present, he must do the task of the first layer and improve his level.

After all, among the 10,000 people, the number of people participating in the closed beta is as high as 1,000, and many tasks with high experience points will miss out on them if they don't hurry up.

Moreover, looking at He Yuan and the others, it is obvious that they only know how to kill monsters and upgrade, and they don't know that they have more experience from doing tasks.

If you join on your own, you will likely be slowing down your leveling speed.

Therefore, Kirito shook his head and refused, "No, I'm used to being alone." ”

He Yuan was stunned for a moment and fell silent.

He suddenly remembered that at the beginning of the game, Kirito left behind his first friend in the game, Klein, in order to quickly improve his strength.

Obviously, the current Kirito, like Asuna, has made it his only goal to become stronger and break through the game.

It's just that Asuna is just a novice in the game, and she only knows how to kill monsters to gain experience points, while Kirito, as a closed beta player, has a lot of game resources.

"It's fine!" Shaking his head, He Yuan smiled and said: "It's just that one person should be more careful, after all, this game ......"

"Hmm."

Kirito nodded and walked deeper into the labyrinth.

At the corner of the labyrinth, Kirito paused.

"Hey!"

"What?"

"There are treasure chests in some rooms in the labyrinth area, and if you open them, you can get some random things, maybe equipment, or potions or something."

"Huh."

Looking at Kirito's distant back, He Yuan smiled bitterly.

In the previous village, he used the location of the labyrinth area that Kirito knew, in exchange for the strategy of the task of "counterattacking cow".

Now, Kirito repays himself with a piece of information that he already knows, is this considered a report from the world?

looked at the sleeping Asuna, this favor, I guess I owe it.

"Whoosh!"

For a moment, the sound of the one-handed sword breaking through the air danced with the shattering sound of the monster's death!

……

The figures are staggered, and the red skill light effect lights up.

"Huh?"

In He Yuan's surprised look, he felt the rhythm of his muscles.

The tendons in the feet vibrate rapidly, exploding the moment they make contact with the ground.

As his waist and abdomen writhed, it seemed that all the strength of his body was concentrated on the hand holding the sword, and then ......

"Whew!"

"Deadly Strike!"

"Phew!"

The skeleton warrior behind him instantly turned into pieces, and He Yuan, his eyes were blank, and his body maintained the posture after releasing the skill.

After a long time, He Yuan's gaze regained its agility.

Stand in the close, hand your sword to your left hand, and draw out the system bar.

Level (LV): 14 (1224/1400)

HP：100%

Endurance (VIT): 100%

Attack (STR): 26 (+8)

Defense (VIT): 4.8 (+30)

AGI: 26 (+5)

One-Handed Sword Mastery: 100 (10% increased One-Handed Sword Damage!)

In addition to the XP changes, both Agility and Attack have increased a bit again.

Of course, He Yuan's gaze did not stop there, but looked at the "one-handed sword mastery" at the back.

In the game "Infinite Moment", if the one-handed sword proficiency reaches 100, you can light up the second skill square and learn the two skills inside.

And now, He Yuan's own "one-handed sword mastery" has reached one hundred, which shows his "absolute control" of skills.

Unlike other players who are based on data, they use skills that are simulated by the system.

And He Yuan, he entered the game in real life, so, in theory, all the skills he can use can be truly displayed within the scope of his ability.

The initial skill "Killing Strike" opened the door to a mystery for He Yuan when his "One-handed Sword Mastery" reached 100 points......

……

“LEVEL UP”

Killing the skeleton warrior in front of him, He Yuan's ears heard the sound of level increase.

Pull out the system bar, but find that your level is still 14, although the experience points are almost full, but, obviously, the one who has just been upgraded is not himself.

So......

Turning his head to look behind him, sure enough, the crimson mass shrunk in the corner, the hood began to rise.

"Woke up by the escalated sounds?"

Secretly said a mistake, his original purpose was to let Asuna have a good rest, for this reason, even fighting monsters, he just dodged to avoid the sound of swords and soldiers intersecting to make Asuna.

Unexpectedly, he killed the monster for more than three hours and upgraded Asuna!

"Are you awake? Do you want to take another break? ”

"Hmm~~"

A slight murmur, it seems, not fully awake yet?

Halfway through, Asuna seemed to react, and Hedi stood up.

"No, that's enough."

Shaking her head, Asuna spoke softly: "If you want to beat this game, you have to become stronger, and you can't waste time. ”

"Do you want to rest?"

"Nope."

Since Asuna wants to continue leveling, of course He Yuan can't hold back.

"Let's get started, oh yes, Asuna, I just met a guy who said that there are hidden treasure chests in this labyrinth area, and if you open them, you will get random equipment medicine or something."

"Why don't we level up and look for treasure chests?"

"Whew, equipment and medicine?" Asuna whispered, thought for a moment, and nodded.

"Okay, but if you're in danger, you have to run away as soon as possible."

"Well, I promise." Listening to Asuna's serious voice, He Yuan's heart warmed and made a guarantee.

As for whether it is true or not, then it depends on the situation, at least, before the twenty-fourth floor, He Yuan did not feel that he would encounter any danger to his life.

"So, let's go!"

"Hmm."

Seeing Asuna pull out her thin sword and walk in front, He Yuan didn't say anything, anyway, he hadn't been to this labyrinth area before, except for the room where the boss was located was more dangerous, the others were not a threat at all.
