The breeze blew across the grassland, blowing Zeyi's shoulder-length short hair, bringing him a hint of coolness.

As far as the eye could see, there was a verdant and vast, and the feeling of spaciousness and tranquility, the aroma of the earth at the tip of his nose, made the haze in his heart dissipate a lot.

Zeyi walked slowly across the grassland towards the boar, while playing with the thin sword in his hand.

He stopped when he was still 2 meters away from the boar, put the rapier on his chest, and kicked the ground with his left foot to make a sword start.

The whole person moved to the back of the boar with a dark blue iron sword in an instant, drawing a 4-meter-long blue trace.

The boar "whined", turned and rushed towards Zeyi, and when it was about to collide with Zeyi, Zeyi ended his stiff state, he quickly turned around to avoid the boar's impact, and then stabbed a sword into the ribs of its waist.

The boar's health bar drops rapidly until it is emptied.

Looking at the purple experience points on the ground and the mountain boar that had broken into countless polygonal pieces, Zeyi nodded with satisfaction.

"Sure enough, it's the feeling of a real fight that makes me feel comfortable."

Sitting on the grass, Zeyi sighed at the perfection of Sword Art Online while munching on black bread worth 1 k'er.

You must know that in the past computer games, although Zeyi can use the mouse and keyboard as flexibly as an arm, there is still a sense of estrangement after all, and it is not as comfortable as it is today.

Back then, he was in a game that fought monsters and accumulated points, but he had an achievement of 1,000,000 points. If that game could also be fully infiltrated, Zeyi felt that his score would be better if he fell.

And now, after getting used to the game's mechanics, Zeyi has decided to take the plunge and try attacking two boars at the same time.

If it succeeds like that, Zeyi's leveling speed will be doubled, and he will be able to accumulate the advantage in the early stage faster, but if he fails......

"No matter, if you don't play the game anyway, you're going to be trapped here, so it's better to fight to the death."

Zeyi gritted his teeth and made the final decision, he first stepped into the hatred range of one boar, and then stepped into the range of another. Two boars were attracted to him at the same time and rushed towards him.

Dodging the first boar sideways, then quickly dodging the second boar with another beautiful turn, and at the same time giving the first boar a blow, draining a third of its health.

Looking at the two boars that were in a state of stiffness, Ze Yi once again launched his sword technique, penetrating the bodies of the two boars.

The first boar shattered to pieces as expected, and the second crashed into it. Zeyi fended off the boar's attack with his sword, and at the same time turned and killed it with a sword.

EXP+80

Kell +20

The fur of the boar × 2

The fangs of the boar ×1

Boar × 1

As time passed, Zeyi's experience points increased rapidly, and finally reached level 2 when the sky broke.

At this time, Zeyi's eyes were dizzy, and his body swayed towards the Initial Town, the thin sword in his right hand was already scarred and about to shatter.

But his gains are also extraordinary, first of all, reaching the second level that countless people have only dreamed of, and secondly, the mountains of materials in the inventory.

When you return to the "Town of Beginnings", as soon as you walk in, you can smell the desolation that pervades the entire town.

After Akihiko Kayaba announced that "the game has officially begun", two-thirds of the players fell into a panic.

They cry in corners, shout and even indiscriminately attack the system of protected buildings, trying to get rid of their inner fears.

But those fears were very real in front of them, pressing on their nerves and making them sleepless.

Even after a day, the players are still in fear, no, more accurately, the fear is stronger now than it was a day ago.

Walking on the marble street leading to the square, you can see players with drunken faces lying on the ground and screaming loudly with red faces; You can also see players eating at restaurants, fidgeting in chairs with their stomachs that they can't swallow anymore.

They are numbing/paralyzing their current panic nerves by consuming their future survival possibilities, hoping that they will not be afraid.

They've given up, and "since there's no hope, it's better to die after having some fun" is a reflection of the hearts of most of the players here.

Passing by these deserted players, the sleepy Zeyi walked towards the East End.

He can't help them much, and he's not a saint. For him, it's more important to have a break than to help this group of self-deprecating players.

Walking to the East End, Zeyi stopped in front of a hotel.

"How many koll does it cost to open a room?"

Zeyi looked at the NPC opposite with squinted eyes, it was probably a fat man, looking at him with a beer belly and a smile.

"50 kl for a single room, 100 kl for a double room."

"That'...... Let's have a private room. ”

At this time, Zeyi couldn't afford to bargain at all, he was eager to sleep for a while, otherwise, he was afraid that he would argue with the NPC on the opposite side and tell him who was the king of chopping.

As soon as he walked into the room, Zeyi fell to the ground and fell asleep.

At this time, he didn't know what kind of ridiculous behavior was happening outside.

The prelude to everything is a voice in the square - "Someone has found a way out!" ”

The sound exploded among desperate players, drawing them to watch.

I saw a tall scimitar envoy, standing on the outer edge of the game, muttering loudly with a drunken face: "About the way to get out of the game, hiccup~ It's death!"

"What, you have proof?"

"What are you kidding, what if you don't get out?"

"Deceitful things, let's disperse."

Although the players are decadent, they have not given up their remaining sanity and have questioned one after another.

The tall scimitar laughed, and his face looked like everyone was drunk and I was alone.

"Who knows if you don't try this kind of thing? Besides, do you have any other way to get out? ”

"The so-called strategy game is simply ridiculous, that's 100 floors! When will you be able to get out, why not try jumping down and dying? ”

"Then you can try it."

"Yes, you come first."

Seeing that the other players turned from questioning to hesitation and agitation, the scimitar jumped and jumped, and the other players hurried over, watching his figure get smaller and smaller, and finally disappeared into the dense fog outside.

He ...... It worked? One player whispered

"Whatever, there's only one way to do it anyway!"

The other player recklessly agreed with the scimitar's statement and jumped down.

After them, several more players who were already completely desperate jumped in. But more, they didn't even have the courage to commit suicide, so they could only shake their heads to comfort themselves and continue to live.

And all this was noticed by a man with cactus-like hair, who secretly clenched his hands and said in a unique Kansai accent: "I will definitely give you hope!"
