– December 17, 2023, 75th Floor of Ayn Grant, Labyrinth Area.

"Where is the boss room hidden, we have all searched through the maze area, why haven't we found it yet~" Kirito complained weakly.

Since the incident in the boss room on the 74th floor, Yuki has a lot less smile on his face, and after waking up in the blank house, he directly quit the blank team and returned to the headquarters of the Blood Alliance Knights.

Less than half an hour after Yuki returned to the headquarters, the head of the Blood Alliance Knights convened the entire strategy group and held an emergency meeting, which did not end until the evening.

After the meeting, the strategy group jointly issued an announcement:

It is forbidden for a single person to enter the maze area on the 70th floor and above, and it is forbidden to enter the maze area in a state of fatigue! Otherwise, you do it at your own risk!

At the same time, the meeting also decided to hand over the supreme command of the strategy group to Yuki, and those who opposed it, Yuki directly used a challenge to violently suppress it.

On the second day of the meeting, Yuki led the entire strategy group to plunge headlong into the labyrinth area on the 75th floor, and the members of the strategy team who were forced to suspend their vacation dared not speak out, for fear of being hung up and abused by Yuki.

And so far, the strategy team has turned the 75th floor of the maze area upside down, but the boss room has not been found, Yuki had to lead the strategy team to conduct a carpet search in the maze area side by side, and the players who already have a deep grudge against Kayaba Jinghiko once again greeted all the women of the eighteenth generation of Kayaba Jinghiko's ancestors.

"If it weren't for the fact that the environment of this labyrinth is not bad, and there are a lot of good ingredients, I wouldn't be hanging around here." Hearing Kirito's complaint, Asuna pursed her lips and spoke.

The blank brother and sister deliberately took a few steps behind the two in front of him, discussing something in a whisper, and from time to time he looked up at the two people in front of him, and every time Kirito looked back, both of them looked like they were seriously observing their surroundings, and after he turned his head, the whispering sound behind him would reach his ears again, making him hurt for a while.

As for the salted fish Sirika...... Well? Sirika!

Kirito turned his head suddenly, his eyes bypassed the blank brother and sister who were "seriously" observing the environment, and looked behind them, looking at the empty behind the two siblings, where there was still the figure of Sirika, Kirito's heart gradually lifted.

As if sensing Kirito's strange appearance, Asuna turned her head and asked suspiciously, "Kirito, is something wrong?" ”

"Sirika, it's gone!" Kirito replied in a deep voice.

Hearing Kirito's words, the blank brother and sister paused, glanced back, looked behind the empty air, the two glanced at each other, stretched out their hands to pull away the map, and ran towards the red dot on the map that was dozens of meters behind them, on the way, the two of them each found their own weapons.

Kirito and Asuna glanced at each other, and also felt their own to follow.

"Celica! You .........." Bai's anxious voice paused, looking at the scene in front of him, and the remaining half of the sentence was stuck in his throat, unable to speak.

I saw that Sirika was sitting on a huge tree that had fallen to the ground, holding a snow-white sphere in her arms, her right hand kept teasing, and her face was full of happy smiles.

Looking at the "warm" scene in front of him, black gas gradually came out of Bai's body, looking at his sister who was about to go crazy, he decisively found a corner and hid there shivering.

Bai walked slowly in front of Celica, shrouded her shadow over Celica, and stared at Cerica with a pair of dead fish eyes.

Feeling that her vision was darkening, Sirika raised her head suspiciously, and looked at Shangbai's seeping dead fish eyes, Sirika shuddered, swallowed her saliva, and said weakly: "Sister Bai~~~"

"Bang" Bai directly slashed a knife on Celica's head, Celica was cut off and squatted on the ground, squatting on the ground, bursting into tears, and then Sirika greeted Bai for half an hour of preaching.

Looking at Bai in a preachy state, Asuna and Kirito glanced at each other, and the corners of their mouths twitched unconsciously. Then he tacitly turned his head away.

Asuna happened to see the snow-white sphere at Sirika's feet, her eyes lit up, and she quietly walked over, picked up the white ball and quickly ran back to its original position, for fear of being affected by Bai's preaching.

After observing Shiro for a moment to make sure she hadn't noticed her little movements, Asuna breathed a sigh of relief and lowered her head to observe the spherical creature in her arms.

Snow-white hair, long ears, three-petal mouth, red eyes, small short legs, and a negligibly short tail, wow! What a familiar snow rabbit......... Well? A familiar snow hare? Looking at the snow-white rabbit with a little familiar in her arms, Asuna was stunned, stretched out her hand, led the rabbit's long ears, put it in front of her eyes and turned around, and looked at the rabbit up and down, inside and out, Asuna felt more and more familiar with this rabbit, and then, Asuna took out a firm scroll from her backpack with a strange face, and then pointed at the rabbit, clicked to use, and then the rabbit's attributes emerged, Asuna looked at the rabbit's attributes, breathed a sigh, and then an ecstatic expression appeared on her face.

Chowder rabbit

Rarity: ??? (Can't tell!) ）

Description: Almost all chefs around the world have been looking for the legendary ingredient, but no one has found it so far, so the aborigines have deified it. Legend has it that its flesh and blood are hundreds of times better than Tang monk meat, and eating a bite can not only be immortal and youthful, but also can live and die human flesh and bones, and cure all diseases, as for what is Tang monk meat? Well~ who knows.

Purpose: After eating, a permanent buff can be added: increase the maximum HP by 20% of the maximum HP; After the chef uses this ingredient, his proficiency can be promoted to the god level!

Asuna, who was already happy and fearless, ran directly to Silika, ignoring Bai who was still unfinished and ready to say a few more words, shaking Silika whose eyes turned into mosquito coils, while shouting excitedly: "Silica! Wake up!! ”

On the side of the white face with a black line, looking at Celica's mosquito coil eyes that had become a little heavier, silently stretched out her hand and pulled Asuna, when Asuna turned her head suspiciously, she didn't speak, raised her hand and pointed at Celica, who had begun to foam at the mouth.

Asuna followed Shiro's fingers to look at Sirika.

"Forehead.................." looked at Celica who fell to the ground, and Asuna was embarrassed.

-—— after 2 minutes

Celica woke up slowly, sat up, her eyes full of confusion, and whispered, "Who am I?" Where am I? ............”

Looking at Celica's expression, Asuna felt that her embarrassment was about to explode. After organizing the language, he brought the chowder rabbit to Celica's eyes and said, "Na~ Sirika, thank you for finding this rabbit, we have found dinner today!" ”

Hearing that Asuna was going to make dinner with the rabbit in front of her, Celica instantly came to her senses, snatched the rabbit from Asuna's hand, tightly protected it in her arms, and retorted loudly: "Bunny is so cute, how can mud be a rabbit!" ”

As if she had anticipated Celica's reaction, Asuna smiled confidently and said temptingly: "I can make it into that kind of super delicacy with golden light and aroma~ Silica doesn't want to taste it?" ”

Listening to Asuna's words, Celica swallowed her saliva, as if thinking of a certain cartoon she watched before, in which a blue-haired boy waved kitchen utensils and made a series of delicacies that emitted golden light and wafted aroma, and after people tasted it, their intoxicated expressions.

After a moment's hesitation, Sirika asked, "Really?" ”

"Really, really!" Asuna nodded.

Celica, who was affirmed by Asuna, stuffed the rabbit in her arms to Asuna, and then urged: "Since it's true, then Sister Asuna doesn't have to wait for the night, now we'll go home and do it!" ”

Looking at the chowder rabbit stuffed in her arms, Asuna smiled, then turned to look at Blank and Kirito.

Getting Asuna's inquiring eyes, Kirito hesitated for a moment and then said, "Well~ Forget it, there are so many people in the strategy group looking for it, it's not just 6 of us, let's go home first!" ”

The blank sibling nodded in agreement.

After seeing that everyone agreed, Celica couldn't wait to take out a transfer crystal from her backpack, crush it, the white light lit up, and the six disappeared into the maze.
