Chapter 64: The Murderer
At 8 o'clock in the morning, when Xia Qianshi finished freshening up and came to the first floor from the second floor, Asuna was already busy in the kitchen.
"Wait a minute, breakfast will be ready soon."
The air was filled with a tempting aroma, Xia Qianshi shrugged his nose slightly, and said with a smile: "It's a bacon omelette sandwich again?" β
"What, you're tired of eating?" Asuna's angry voice.
"You'll never get tired of it!" Xia Qianshi said: "I still have the old rule, add more cheese." β
"Got it, you give me a quiet place to sit on the sofa and don't disturb me cooking!"
Xia Qianshi shrugged his shoulders and did not sit down on the sofa, but went outside the house, ready to take the latest newspaper in the mailbox to read.
But when he opened the mailbox, he found it empty.
"Huh? Asuna, isn't there an up-to-date newspaper today? β
ββ¦β¦β
"Asuna?"
"Whew-"
As if she had made up her mind, Asuna exhaled heavily, and then she was heard say, "Qianshi, I have something I want to talk to you about." β
β¦β¦
Asuna used to wake up at 7:30 a.m. every day, because Xia Qianshi woke up at 8 a.m.
In this extra half an hour, she would first go to the mailbox to get today's newspaper, put it on the table for Xia Qianshi, and then tie her apron to prepare breakfast.
But today, after reading the headlines in the newspaper, she couldn't help but hide the newspaper.
γTooth King: The One Who Blasphemed the Deadγ
On the front page of this newspaper are these few big words, the writer described the despicable behavior of the Tooth King in extremely indignant words, and even took a picture very intimately, which occupied almost the entire page.
Asuna subconsciously didn't want Xia Qianshi to see this newspaper, but when Xia Qianshi asked, she still took out the newspaper as if she was fated.
Because that's something that can't be hidden.
ββ¦β¦β
Although she was already mentally prepared, when Xia Qianshi's eyes became sinister after reading the newspaper, Asuna still sighed softly.
"Qianshi, you calm down first."
She said: "I know that the Tooth King is a hateful person, but if you really kill him, the impact will be too bad, and you don't need to ruin your reputation for this kind of person...... In my opinion, it is better to arrest him and lock him up in the Black Iron Palace. β
"You're right."
Xia Qianshi nodded slightly, making Asuna show joy, but immediately, he said softly: "But, Asuna, what a man says, he must do it." β
β¦β¦
β¦β¦
Wild on the 51st floor.
It was rainy.
According to the calendar of Equin Grant, it is the month of the ash tree in late autumn.
It is in response to the sentence of the continuous autumn rain.
However, in SAO, players don't catch a cold, so even if the late autumn on a rainy day is a little cool, the player still chooses to come out and kill monsters after wearing enough warm clothes.
In the smoke and rain.
Dressed in a black cloak, Xia Qianshi carried a sword and a sword, walking on the official road paved with marble.
While passing through a canyon, suddenlyβ
"Whoosh ββββ!"
In the sound of breaking the air, a figure flashed, and in the blink of an eye, Xia Qianshi was surrounded by more than 20 people, and the rampant laughter of the Tooth King sounded at the end:
"Hahaha, I didn't expect you to be such a stupid person Xia Qianshi, just a plan to lure the snake out of the hole, I will get you done, obediently let me lock you up in the Black Iron Palace, Lord Tooth King can spare your life!"
The Tooth King had not completely lost his mind, the moment he picked up the Explainer, he knew that Xia Qianshi would definitely take revenge on him.
So he simply took the initiative to reveal his whereabouts, luring Xia Qianshi to retaliate, and he set up an ambush halfway.
Originally, he was still a little worried about whether this strategy would work, after all, Xia Qianshi's wisdom should not be underestimated.
But even he didn't expect that the news had just been released, and Xia Qianshi actually found it before half an hour.
That's why he used the word stupid to describe Xia Qianshi.
However, is the really stupid person Xia Qianshi?
Xia Qianshi just looked at him with pity, "Actually, you are hiding in a safe area, I can't do anything with you, and as a result, you want to be sent to death." β
"Huh?"
The Tooth King showed an extremely exaggerated expression, turned his head and asked the little brother next to him, "I seem to have had auditory hallucinations just now, and he actually said that I was sending me to death?" β
"There's something wrong with your head!"
The others laughed like demons.
In "SAO", because of the problem of skill mechanics, it is common sense that one person cannot single out a group of people unless the level is completely suppressed.
So even in the face of Xia Qianshi, the first person in the game, they are completely fearless.
"Choking ββββ!"
Their laughter was interrupted by the cold trembling of the sword as it was unsheathed.
Xia Qianshi took a sword in his right hand and a knife in his left hand, and walked forward.
"Think you can scare me with two weapons?"
Despite saying this, the Tooth King still had a uneasy look on his face.
Although he felt that he had won the battle, in the face of a legendary figure like Xia Qianshi, his nervous palms were sweating.
took a few steps back, and at the same time said fiercely: "Kill him!" β
More than twenty people let out a roar and rushed towards Xia Qianshi.
This is a real rush, not like in the TV series, it looks like the male protagonist is surrounded by a group of small soldiers, but except for one or two who are attacking, everyone else is watching the show with weapons.
More than twenty kinds of sword skills, flashing with fierce brilliance, beckoned towards Xia Qianshi.
"Tsujikaze ββ!"
A faint green light flowed on the blade, and with the supreme speed provided by the sword technique, Xia Qianshi burst behind the player in front of him in an instant.
From the beginning to the end of the sword technique, players in a straight line are all pounced on the ground!
"Good chance!"
Xia Qianshi, who used this trick to pull out the knife and slash, still maintained the posture of receiving the move, which is the so-called backswing in the game, revealing a huge flaw!
But when the player who thought he had won rushed over excitedly, he was shocked to find that Xia Qianshi had already turned around, and a faint ripple like a water curtain blocked him in front of him.
More than a dozen attacks all hit the water curtain, Xia Qianshi did not suffer the slightest damage, but because of the attacks of these people, the one-handed straight sword in his hand emitted a dazzling red light!
"Dangerous ββββ!"
Players who had already recognized this sword skill widened their eyes and wanted to dodge, but they were also caught in the backswing of the attack, and there was nowhere to hide!
"Reverse Wheel ββ!"
One-handed straight sword skills, belonging to the counterattack system, can completely defend against enemy attacks within a certain period of time, and launch a counterattack!
"Choking ββββ!"
The red sword slashed a poignant half-quarter moon in the air, and the players in the fan-shaped area in front of Xia Qianshi all fell to the ground screaming!
None of these people died, but when they took the potion to replenish their HP and stood up, none of them dared to step forward again.
"You monster, how can you use two sword skills at the same time?!"
In an unbelievable tone, the Tooth King shouted out their inner voices.
ββ¦β¦β
Xia Qianshi didn't answer, walked up to the Tooth King, and slashed down with a knife without any fancy-
"Sonorous ββββ!"
The Tooth King used the explainer in his hand to block Xia Qianshi's attack, but the sword in Xia Qianshi's hand had already pierced his heart from below!
The glow in his pupils was gradually dissipating, and the Tooth King stared at Xia Qianshi, and with his last strength, let out a low miserable laugh:
"Vicious murderer...... You will carry this sin forever...... Stay alive ......"
"Bang dang!"
The Tooth King's body fell to the ground, turning into countless fragments and dissipating, Xia Qianshi picked up a black one-handed straight sword that exploded, and turned around and left under the trembling gaze of dozens of people.
