Chapter 43: Commendation Conference and Strategy Boss
Two days later, Xia Qianshi held a commendation meeting in the church.
Sirika, Yuki, Lizzebet, and six other heroic players were the protagonists of the commendation ceremony.
At the conference, Xia Qianshi highly praised the spirit of the 9 people who dared to resist, and at the same time strongly condemned the evil thoughts of some players who disregarded the general righteousness and only vented their selfish desires.
At the conference, Xia Qianshi emphasized in a sad tone that although the vast majority of players are willing to work together to tackle this game, it is inevitable that there will be some black sheep among them.
These people are afraid that the world will not be chaotic, and they will do whatever they want because they do not need to be punished by the law in the game.
However, Xia Qianshi said that they [the Ayn Grant Liberation Army] will never give in, and they will fight these underworld forces to the end!
At the same time, he also told other non-guild players to pay attention to their personal safety, and be sure to gather more companions when traveling, because those people are murderers who can do everything, and they may not only attack the people of the [Ayngrant Liberation Army].
The commendation meeting culminated when Xia Qianshi personally put on the knight's uniform with silver badges for the nine people.
What made Xia Qianshi a little dizzy was that this speech written by Tilberu, Achill and himself was extremely bloody, empty and clichΓ©d.
But everyone else was enthusiastic when they heard it, especially the 9 people who accepted the commendation, and they trembled with excitement.
Seven people, including Sirika, Xing, and Lizzebet, said on the spot that they were willing to join the strategy group and contribute to the cause of the strategy game.
"Bang Bang!"
Xia Qianshi took the lead in applauding, showing a high degree of affirmation and appreciation for their noble dedication.
Other players were also greatly inspired.
After all, among these 7 people, there are three girls, especially Celica, who looks like she is just a very young Lori.
Such Lori dares to face monsters, don't they dare these big men?
The symbolic significance of these seven people joining the strategy group is far greater than the actual significance, and under their drive, it has also triggered a craze for joining the strategy group.
There are also many non-guild players who also feel that it is safer to join a guild.
Probably even Vashak himself didn't expect that he originally wanted to use this attack to kill Xia Qianshi and hit the reputation of the [Ayngrant Liberation Army], but instead Xia Qianshi used it and turned it into something beneficial to the guild.
At the end of the commendation meeting, Xia Qianshi once again released heavy news - their 'People's Liberation Army' is going to start attacking the boss of the second layer!
The power of the group is much greater than that of the individual.
On the first floor, it took players 27 days to find the boss room in the maze.
But now, with the unity and cooperation of 700 people in the strategy team, it only took 7 days to turn the maze upside down, and finally found the boss room in the deepest part of the maze.
Unlike the wide variety of monsters on the first floor of Al Grande, the second layer of Al Grant is the world of cattle.
Giant bison swaying in the grasslands, rhinos flaunting in the river valleys (although rhinos are not cattle), and even the labyrinth is full of cattle.
But unlike ordinary cows, the cows in the maze stood up one after another, and wrapped a circle of pocket cloth around their crotch, becoming a minotaur!
"Don't ...... Come here......! Don't come near me......!! β
In the midst of the screams, the one who slowly approached the beautiful girl was a tall minotaur with a nose ring and a majestic figure.
The brave beautiful girl broke through the labyrinth with a sword, but was held down by a strange-looking monster OOXX.
This kind of exciting development is by no means uncommon in some curious and wonderful films.
But today's beautiful girl is a little different-
"Didn't I say that...... Don't come here!! β
The girl let out a roar of rage, but instead of retreating, she rushed forward.
The minotaur wanted to swing the rough two-handed hammer, but the hammer's trajectory had not yet reached its highest point, and the girl's right hand stabbed like thunder.
It was a slaughtering attack, and the irapier of anger made the attack undisciplined, but it looked more terrifying than ever.
Xia Qianshi next to him was a little furious when he saw it, and couldn't help but say, "These monsters didn't offend you, did they?" β
Asuna took a few breaths with her sword and said indignantly: "Those guys only have a small piece of fabric around their waists and are wearing almost nothing, this is simply sexual harassment!" I want to use the harassment program to send it to the Black Iron Palace. β
"No, even if Asuna is touched by these monsters, it will never trigger the system's anti-harassment program."
Kirito kindly reminded him, but Asuna glared at him with a very sharp gaze, so he immediately didn't dare to speak with a weak face, and he didn't know what he was doing wrong.
In this way, with three people as arrows, including the most elite 48 people of the [Ayngrant Liberation Army], the strategy team soon came to the boss room on the 20th floor of the labyrinth.
According to the strategy given by the players in the closed beta, the bosses of the second layer are the Minotaur General and the Minotaur Colonel as a guard.
Perhaps it is the reason why the first layer of boss battles has been tempered, these two bosses give players the feeling that the difficulty is moderate, and under the command of Xia Qianshi, the strategy is carried out in an orderly manner.
The Minotaur Colonel was eliminated by the special attack team led by Kirito, and the remaining Minotaur General's HP was also slowly decreasing.
Then unexpectedly, but reasonably, it happened, different from the situation during the closed beta.
When the last HP of the Minotaur General turned yellow, the sound of a clattering of mud on the walls resounded in the large boss room.
Players who were concentrating on the strategy boss didn't hear this voice, but Xia Qianshi, who had been in charge of the overall situation, heard this voice clearly in his ears.
The sound comes from the large minotaur statue at the forefront of the boss room.
The height of the Minotaur General is 5 meters, which is nearly twice the height of the first layer boss Kobold King, and the height of this statue is a full seven meters!
At first, everyone regarded it as a decorative totem, but now it seems that the statues in the maze will eventually become monsters!
When all the mud on the surface collapsed, a giant minotaur monster stepped out.
Unlike the golden color of the Minotaur General, the color of this Minotaur is a more oppressive pitch black.
The crown on its head, supported by six golden horns, illustrates its identity as the Taurus King!
"Moo-oh-ohββββ!"
The Minotaur King's cry resounded throughout the boss room, and the air was distorted in the shape of a sonic wave in his roar.
As soon as it stepped out, the ground was centered on the soles of its feet, revealing a collapsed rock formation with a diameter of three meters.
"Boom!"
The ground trembled, except for Xia Qianshi, most of the people were shaken by its kick and fell to the ground!
The boss battle on the second floor has officially begun!
