Chapter 24: The rematch is the official beginning

The lighting changes in the underground part are independent of time, only depending on the location. Pen ~ fun ~ pavilion www.biquge.info

Players and NPCs who embark on the quest begin out as strangers and wary of each other within the team, and even more hostile to the others, but soon realize that, at least for now, the biggest threat to them is not the contestants, but the strange traps placed in the rooms.

In all fairness, these traps are not particularly scary, if you are vigilant at all times, and after having experience and a slightly higher level of observation than the average person, you can avoid 90% of these traps, and the remaining 10% are not the kind that will definitely die as soon as you step into them. With the superhuman physical strength and magic that most players have, as long as they react in time, they don't say that they are alive, and it is more than enough to protect their NPC companions.

But the biggest threat to traps, especially randomly placed traps, is often not itself, but its existence. Because I don't know where and how something will come out, I have to be cautious at every step, maintain a high degree of vigilance, and try to maintain a state of being in a ......state of being in a

While this greatly increases the survival rate of these people, on the other hand, it also leads to the rapid depletion of their spirits, and their attention has to be constantly focused on the dangers that may come. So, after about five hours, most of the people had stopped in place and started to rest. Then, after falling into a state of relaxation, they will be even more reluctant to return to the previous state of tension that is close to collapse.

After that, the few people who still remained active, except for Lin Qing and Death House No. 1, two crazy NPCs who were nine out of ten sure of immortality, there were only a few high-end players like knights who had excellent personal strength, didn't need to pay attention to most of the traps, and could get out of the way if they stepped in.

But even these players have to be in a state of relative excitement to ensure that they can react in time. After ten to twenty hours in this state, although most of them feel good about themselves, in reality, they are all exhausted and in a state of fatigue.

Having said that, what I'm really trying to say is that the contestants, who are so focused entirely on dangers like traps, are in the constant light source that is just as tiring as they can easily get tired, and naturally almost all of them ignore one more important message – that is, time.

Time passed silently, the day was not as long as expected, and before they knew it, an even greater threat had befallen them, and yet they were not aware of it.

"Five thousand." The knight gently stroked his temple, which was completely subconscious, because for the player, the headache was just a "feeling", and it had nothing to do with the head organ in essence, "There are about three thousand players in it. Well, maybe it's better to just tell the player? It's not easy to get this number of people......"

Although the little knight and his team were sought after like saviors when they cleared the first layer, that kind of fanatical worship did not and could not last in everyone's hearts.

And in the end, although it is true that Xiao Cang and the knight broke through the final boss of the first layer and made everyone successfully reach the second layer, this is not complete, or largely not their credit. First of all, it is the strategy obtained by the sacrifice of countless predecessors; Secondly, everyone is united to provide help to a small number of people to level up. These two points are the key to clearing the first layer.

Therefore, in the second layer, the level practiced in the first level of turn-based world became meaningless, and when everyone relied on their abilities, the number of players who still supported them and were willing to cooperate with them unconditionally was as there were in the first layer can be said to be a handful compared to the original.

In such an atmosphere, in this very scattered labyrinth of people, the knight can still find close to three thousand players to listen to his arrangement, at least after listening to what he said before deciding whether to obey or not, it is already a manifestation of the knight's powerful flickering ability and personal charm. However, in this case, it will be difficult for his idea to be realized.

The knight patted the shoulder of an unusually obscene-looking man next to him and asked, "Have those words been passed out just now?" What do you think of this idea? What are your thoughts? ”

The lewd man laughed twice, hunched over and stroked his thin arm: "You know, most people here trust you very much. So, since you said this is one of the Ain Grant layers, people will want to believe you, even if you don't come up with any credible evidence. But, IMHO, no one with a modicum of brains will approve of your idea. ”

The knight pursed his lips and nodded, then shook his head: "Tell me, why do you say that?" ”

"It is our idea to reopen the world's first martial arts club." The lewd man rubbed his hands again, "At first, everyone will accept it, but it's just in the mentality of 'try it and don't want money'." But now that it's really reopened, the question of the final reward comes to mind. According to that plan, whether or not he can leave Ayn Grant in the end is all counting on the champion. ”

"Then, this championship can only be relieved if you hold it in your own hands." The knight squinted and nodded again.

"That's right. No matter what those players want to do, this championship must be in their own hands as much as possible, and no matter how bad it is, it must also be in the hands of people they trust. That's why so many people follow you, but it's also why these are the only people who follow you. The lewd man laughed, and a light flashed in his eyes.

"You get the idea, right?" The lewd man coughed, "Of course, if this is really one of the layers of Ayn Grant, we can directly start clearing Ayn Grant, and we can clear the quest without the help of that champion, which is a good idea." However, there are two issues that must be addressed in order for most people to be willing to help you. ”

"Prove that this is indeed one of the layers of Ayn Grant." The Knight sighed again, "And then, to prove that in the rematch with only one chance to resurrect, we can get through the entire Ayn Grant before it is all destroyed." ”

"That's right." The lewd man laughed twice, "Of course, in fact, this plan can also belong to the category of 'try without money', if everyone is really willing to cooperate at the beginning, there is only benefit and no harm in trying to get through Aingrant." But, as I said earlier, the most important thing in this 'No. 1 martial arts club in the world' is the champion. ”

The knight bit his lip tightly, his face full of resentment and unwillingness: "Trust - I rarely really think about everyone once, but at this time they are hindered because they don't trust me. It's so funny. ”

"Hey...... So what's the solution? Well, it's so cheap. The lewd man's smile grew stranger and stranger.

"Hmm. Anyway, let's arrange this beforehand. Like you said, it's always good to try anyway. The knight turned his head with his eyes closed and looked behind him a little confused, "By the way, what's going on?" ”

In the underground part of the two-color orb dungeon, there are only two places where people can stay, the hallway and the room. As mentioned earlier, the hallways are long and narrow, and most of the rooms are limited in size. The only space that can accommodate 5,000 people is a few laboratories in the outer ring area, and the location of the knight at this time is still far from there.

So, the 5,000 people were actually scattered across many corridors and trap-cleared rooms. The knight was only standing in the middle of the corridor, something big had happened behind him, and in the knight's position, he could only notice that it had become a little noisy.

"Don't you know? It was—" In the knight's ears, the lewd man's voice was getting louder, which meant that the guy was getting closer to his back, and the playful malice in his tone of voice was very familiar to the knight.

The knight raised his right foot lightly, stomped slowly, and suddenly a gentle wind blew beside him, although it was covered with dust, but it was not intense, but like a piece of veil, wrapped around him, and then, the knight slid lightly, turned around, as if floating, and came behind the lewd man in a strange and agile manner.

The movements were so complicated and seemed to be slow, but when the knight came to the back of the lewd man, the dagger that the lewd man stabbed from his waist was only five centimeters away from his stomach, and the lewd man himself had not even reacted to the fact that the knight was no longer in front of him.

"No, I know now. Day 1 is over, right? The knight smiled as if all the negative emotions had never been present, and stood there thoughtfully, "I'll just say why you came up to me without asking me for an autograph." It turned out to be an assassin. ”

The lewd man's pupils shrank, he snorted coldly, stepped forward with his left foot, resisted castration, and made his body begin to fall back, and his hand holding the dagger had naturally stabbed towards the knight's chest, and said disdainfully: "Megalomania." ”

The knight tilted his head, his smile did not change at all, and he took a step back slightly, dodging the attack of the lewd man whose body suddenly froze: "It is indeed difficult to catch a useful pet in this world. However, if you want to play against the player, don't you have to take all the medicine and pets into account? ”

The knight bent down and put his hand on the collar of the molested man, and then a small white snake came out of the collar and wrapped around the knight's arm: "When I came to see SAO, I always thought that people like you were quite. But now it seems that there are really people like you, it's really surprising, everyone of the 'Smiling Coffin'. ”

The knight shook his body again, and the sharp arrow shot from behind was dodged by the knight lightly, and plunged straight into the head of the lewd man, and then the knight stood up, looked back at the one who shot the arrow, and nodded: "I was not immediately disqualified from being sent back to China, it seems that the first day has indeed passed." So, go die, 'Smile Coffin'! ”

"It's the Guardians of Heaven!" The man shouted in some panic, and then ran into a room in a panic.

"Retarded - you have no escape!" The knight sneered, and a cyan light suddenly emitted from his body, and in an instant, his speed became very amazing, and before the door of the room was closed, the knight stepped in.

Then the knight was confused.

"Huh? What's going on? ”
