"What's that—" Countless people looked at the figure and asked the same question.

"GM (Game Master)?"

"What kind of event is it?"

"It's scary..."

Countless people whispered.

Only Lu Xiu... While everyone looked up at the figure, Lu Xiu stared at the upper left of his gaze.

There... It's a status bar.

HP, HP, HP... And... Teammates status bar...

Since Qin Yun went offline, Lu Xiu forgot to disband the team because he was bent on playing with the gray wolf.

Originally, when Qin Yun went offline, his status bar would turn gray, and things like hp would become question marks.

But at this time... Those question marks become exact values, and at the same time... His name lit up...

Illustrate... He's online!

"This guy..."Lu Xiu looked around a little anxiously, trying to find the figure, but there were too many people around him, and he couldn't find it at all.

"Where are you?" Lu Xiu hurriedly used the chat communication function to send a message to Qin Yun.

But when the figure spoke, Lu Xiu didn't wait for Qin Yun's reply.

"Fellow players... Welcome to Minecraft. The figure calmly opened his hands as if embracing the whole world, "My name is Akihiko Kayaba, and I'm the only one who can control this world right now. ”

Lu Xiu began to push through the crowd with some eagerness, he knew that the next development, if he couldn't find Qin Yun now, it would be even more difficult to find it next.

"I'm sure you've noticed that the logout button in the main menu is missing."

Those who had already noticed this problem were relieved to hear Akihiko Aoba say this, as long as GM noticed the problem.

But...

"But, I'll tell you in all seriousness, it's not that there's a problem with the game." Plain words exploded like a thunderclap over the square.

"Again, it's not that there's a problem with the game, it's... That's the right way to play SAO. ”

"How to play?" Some people can't help but ask questions.

"From now on, players can't quit the game on their own, and the outside world can't take off the game helmet violently. Waiting for you... That is, the way of death. ”

The cold words were like a cold wind blowing in the harsh winter, and everyone couldn't help but shiver.

"Hey, just kidding... You... You're killing someone! The leader who had surrounded Lu Xiu before roared loudly at Kayaba Jinghiko in dissatisfaction.

However, as soon as the words fell, a junior brother beside him suddenly turned into a point of light and disappeared in place.

At the same time, a virtual screen appeared in front of everyone's eyes.

In the picture, a woman angrily cuts off the power after shaking a teenager wearing a helmet to no avail.

In the next second, the helmet directly burst out with a burst of dazzling white light, accompanied by a few wisps of green smoke, and the young man's body convulsed a few times before he collapsed, life and death were unknown.

"This is what happened to the teenager just now, and unfortunately, he has withdrawn."

Everyone looked at this scene and was speechless in surprise.

is an ordinary person, living an ordinary life.

Suddenly, his life was out of his control, and the emotions he triggered were ultimately nothing but fear.

It is in everyone's nature to fear death, and human nature is such that no one can escape.

"There is only one way to get out of this game, and that is to clear this game, reach the 100th floor, defeat the 100th floor boss, and everything will be calm."

At this time, with the arrival of the meal, one after another, many players turned into points of light and lost their lives.

Everyone was afraid that their family members had done something bad, and they were all speechless in fear, and they had no time to deal with Kayaba Akihiko's words.

"At the same time, you will die in the game in the future... It can't be resurrected, and due to the authenticity of the game, as well as the gameplay of the game, this game has no option to resurrect from the dead from the beginning. ”

As soon as these words came out, the crowd exploded, and many people abandoned their fear for a while and stood up and yelled at Akihiko Kayaba.

"What a joke! Can't be resurrected, when are we going to fight these 100 floors?! ”

However, Kayaba Jinghiko didn't want to pay attention to everyone's questions at all, but slowly opened his hands and continued, "You have just delivered a gift in your backpack, please check it. ”

Not good! Lu Xiu suddenly had only this thought left in his mind, and looked around more eagerly.

However, at this time... There are already quite a few players with strong psychological qualities who have taken out the gift from their backpacks.

Simultaneously... Mirror.

In the next second, the players who took out the mirrors in the square were all shrouded in a burst of white light.

Lu Xiu looked around eagerly, but in the end, he still didn't get anything.

There was more and more white light, and more and more exclamations kept ringing out.

Eventually, the entire square was covered in white light.

After a long time, the white light slowly dissipated, and Lu Xiu couldn't help but open his eyes again and look around.

Since the game has a face pinching system, the appearance of the previous players belongs to the category of handsome and beautiful.

Few people will pinch the character to be ugly, but... With that burst of white light, all of a sudden, the player's appearance dropped a notch overall.

Everyone has been restored to their original reality.

What's more, the ontological man pinched a female character, and the original friend was directly frightened to doubt life after seeing it.

"I guess you're asking in your hearts why, why Akihiko Ashiba is doing such a thing."

"Everything... It's all for the world. ”

Speaking in the clouds, Akihiko Kayaba finally announced: "Now, the official operation tutorial of SAO is officially over, and I wish you all good luck." ”

As the words fell, the entire blood-red figure gradually turned into a pool of blood and rushed towards the sky, and the blood that originally appeared slowly disappeared according to the original route at this time.

As the last trace of blood disappeared, the bubble that had originally enveloped the entire square disappeared without a trace.

The sun's last rays shine on the earth, but the players in the square are cold.

There was an eerie silence in the square, and everyone stared at the sky in shock, motionless, like stone statues.

I don't know who suddenly let out a scream.

After the silence, there was a storm of noise.

Under the extreme suppression, the mood finally ushered in a rebound trend.

Countless people roared and ran madly towards the town.

And Lu Xiu was still anxiously looking above the square, trying to find the familiar figure.

But the prompt that popped up in front of him directly made him freeze in place.

"The squad has been disbanded."

Qin Yun... Quits the squad.

Lu Xiu was completely stunned.
