Chapter 10: Asuna holds her head and squats down
"I heard that another group of people committed suicide today......"
"Ah, I know, 8 people, just jumped over the fence on the periphery."
"If you can't get through the first layer, there will only be more and more people committing suicide, right?"
"I haven't even found the labyrinth on the first floor, so let's talk about strategies."
“……”
Two people in rudimentary leather armor walked past Xia Qianshi, Xia Qianshi shook his head, he hadn't yet reacted from the discomfort of plane jumping.
At the last moment, it was still a bustling modern city, but in the blink of an eye, you came to such an exotic medieval village, and it is estimated that most people will think that they are dreaming.
However, Xia Qianshi knew that this was not a dream, he really crossed over and came to this world called "Sword Art Online".
"Hey, bring me an apple."
The voice was made by a diminutive middle-aged man with a strange cactus hairstyle and a pinch of beard on his chin that made him look a little lewd.
"Apples?"
Xia Qianshi realized that he was standing behind an apple stand.
Xia Qianshi's crossing is not the crossing of the entire body, it is somewhat similar to soul piercing, but it is not all right.
According to his own understanding, since it is a parallel plane, then in another world, there is naturally a person similar to him, and after he crosses over, he replaces the existence of that person.
For example, in the previous Ultraman plane, he crossed over to become a working boy.
To put it simply, he did travel to another world as a whole person, but he merged with another person and started a new story with a new identity.
And in this plane, he seems to be an apple seller?
"Ah, yes, it's Apple."
When Xia Qianshi was still sorting out the information in his mind, the lewd man said impatiently: "Why are the NPCs in this game so grinding and chirping, delaying the time for me to fight monsters, Lord Tooth King." ”
"Games, NPCs?"
Xia Qianshi frowned slightly, the situation seemed to be a little different from what he imagined.
But before he could ask questions, the lewd man named the Tooth King began to tap the stall with the hilt of his sword, "Here! I! Do! Fast! Dot! ”
“……”
Raising his eyebrows, Xia Qianshi hooked his finger at the Tooth King: "Stick your head over, I'll add a buff to you." ”
"Haha, you can encounter a buff event if you buy an apple, Lord Tooth King, am I really the chosen one?"
This has never happened before for NPCs to deceive players, and the Tooth King sticks his head over without hesitation.
"Bang!"
The weighing scale used to weigh the apple slammed into the head of the Tooth King, and although he didn't lose blood because he was in a safe zone, the huge force still made him sit on the ground.
"Tsk...... Did you really come to the game? ”
Under normal circumstances, the opponent should have broken his head and bled a long time ago, but at this time, he was unharmed, and the opponent's green blood bar and game ID also appeared in the field of vision.
In other words, I am indeed in the game now.
Through this simple and crude method, Xia Qianshi verified the first key information, followed by the second ......
"You guy is looking for death!"
In a fit of rage, the Tooth King rolled over from the ground, the curved knife at his waist raised to his shoulder, and made a gesture similar to the half-moon arc slash, and a sinister red light lit up on the curved knife.
"This should be the prelude to the activation of the skill, right?"
Squinting his eyes, Xia Qianshi completely recorded the other party's movements.
At the same time, with a loud roar of 'Drink', the other party slashed down towards Xia Qianshi at a speed that was difficult for ordinary people to achieve!
【Immortal_Object】
A purple message appeared on the surface of the body, and an invisible protective film blocked between the two of them, making the curved knife stop in front of Xia Qianshi's forehead, and it was difficult to take a step further.
Gently moving the curved knife in front of his forehead with a finger, Xia Qianshi muttered to himself, "It seems that it is indeed an NPC...... Next, it should be the City Guard, right? ”
"Bang dang! Bang dang! ”
The knight in heavy armor responded and dragged the Tooth King away without saying a word.
"Help, I don't want to be put in jail!"
The Tooth King, who was dragged like a dead dog, let out a terrible scream, and only then did he realize that he couldn't attack NPCs at will in the game.
There is a place in the game called the Black Iron Palace, where players will be imprisoned if they violate the rules of the game.
Maybe players don't care about it usually, it's just a matter of not playing for a few hours, but in today's game, where strength is equal to life, a few hours of detention is enough to change the fate of a person's life.
"Stupid."
The screams gradually faded away, and finally disappeared completely, Xia Qianshi retracted his gaze and continued to sell his fruits.
……
After a morning, all the fruits on the stall were sold, and the system was not refreshed, but all the money from the sale of apples belonged to him.
"That's my start-up capital."
The money he has is embodied and put it in his hand.,The bag is not big.,But this is the setting in "Sword Art Online".,No matter how much money is realized.,The bag that is displayed is only so big.。
In fact, there are 10,000 kors in it.
The so-called Kel is the monetary unit of this world, and 1 Kel is equivalent to the purchasing power of 2 yuan.
10,000 kors is not a small amount at the beginning of the game.
During this period, he also inquired about some information.
Since there has never been a precedent for NPCs to deceive players, even if his cliché skills are not very good, he still asks what he wants to know.
First of all, it's a game, but it's not a simple game, it's a 'game of death'.
The creator of the game, named Kiyohiko Kayaba, canceled the game's exit function, trapped 10,000 players in the game, and created a real death game based on the concept that 'death in the game is real death'.
Should it be said that most geniuses are crazy?
The condition for clearing the game is to break through the 100th floor, as long as the 100th floor is mastered, the player can exit the game and return to reality.
However, Xia Qianshi knows that his mission is not only that, his purpose is to eliminate the 'evil' of this world, and at present, the possibility that 'evil' is Kayaba Jinghiko seems to be relatively large.
But that's a bit tricky, because going against a gamemaster in a game isn't a pleasant decision.
Maybe you should wait until you beat the level and physically kill them outside of the game?
Anyway, let's upgrade first, the game has been in the game for nearly two weeks, and my level has fallen behind a lot.
But then again, can NPCs be upgraded?
……
With a "plop", the petite figure in a brown cloak staggered to the ground, let out an exclamation of "ah" from his mouth, and then hugged his head with both hands.
“……”
Xia Qianshi raised one hand, and a gesture of greeting was not finished, but it was frozen there because of the girl's reaction.
The girl's behavior of 'holding his head and squatting' in front of him made him a little baffled.
Just a few minutes ago, he had made up his mind to level up, and then he went to find a leveling spot.
The place he is currently in is called 'Torbana', and it is currently the front line of the player, and it is also the largest base close to the maze (although it is said to be the largest, but the distance from beginning to end is only about two hundred meters).
In such a place, of course, the level of the surrounding monsters is relatively high, and if you go out rashly, you will probably be killed by high-level monsters like shooting Xiaoqiang.
So Xia Qianshi decided to ask a player to see if there was a suitable leveling place around.
He targeted a player who was a bit sneaky.
This player, who was wearing a brown cloak with a hood, had been hiding in the shadows for a long time and secretly observing him, she thought she was hiding well, but in fact, Xia Qianshi had already discovered her.
It's just that Xia Qianshi didn't expect that when she walked over to greet her, she would have such a reaction.
Asuna's face is also hot, it's so embarrassing!
I saw the NPC smash other players with a scale, and now I saw him raise his hand towards him, and subconsciously thought that he was going to be smashed too, so he hugged his head - this is a completely knee-jerk reaction, just like someone punches you in the face, and you subconsciously close your eyes.
But now that she came back to her senses, she realized that her actions were so humiliating.
So when Xia Qianshi smiled and said, "My name is Xia Qianshi, what is your name", she stood up, under the brown hood, the pair of shining hazel-colored eyes stared at Xia Qianshi a little stubbornly and coldly, and said, "My name is Asuna." ”
