Chapter 87: The Town of Initiation
"No closed beta characters have been detected, do players want to create new characters?"
"Yes."
"Please create a character ID."
āā¦ā¦ Luo Tianfan. After hesitating for a while, the single-handed Luo Tianhuan directly used his real name.
"Is it custom or random?"
āā¦ā¦ Let's create it randomly...... "Actually, Luo Tianhuan originally wanted to customize it, but then I thought that the designer of this death game, Akihiko Kayaba, would send everyone a "demon mirror", and then change everyone back to their original appearance, so I didn't bother to spend that energy to create the character image I wanted, and chose to create it randomly.
"Randomly created successfully, welcome to Swo

After experiencing a scene like a time tunnel, Luo Tianhuan only felt that his eyes lit up, and the dazzling white light couldn't help but make him subconsciously close his eyes.
When he felt accustomed to the light and opened his eyes again, Luo Tianhuan found that he was already standing in a rather European-style square, and an antique building full of Western European flavor first caught his eye.
The blue sky and white clouds, the green trees, and even the air give people a feeling that is fresher than the real world, and a breeze blows through Luo Tianhuan's face like a real one, making him squint his eyes pleasantly.
Around, carried by an illusory blue flash, one after another figures appeared in this square, and in a short moment, countless crowds of people flooded this area, although it was not to the point of crowding, but the roaring noise showed the number of people.
"This is SAO? Really? Is this game really that real? ā
"What a beautiful environment, such a game world is really good!"
"Sao, I'm coming!"
ā¦ā¦
One after another, shouts of excitement came from the surrounding crowd and soared into the sky, and the square, which had been extremely silent a second ago, was filled with noise in the blink of an eye.
Looking at the players who were excited and began to try it, Luo Tianhuan shook his head gently, and he didn't know what kind of expressions would appear on their faces when they knew that they had entered a world of death games and could no longer go out?
He breathed a long sigh of relief, feeling the fresh breath around the tip of his nose, even Luo Tianhuan couldn't help but secretly admire, although this Kayaba Jinghiko has a bit of a middle second brain, but the technology is really not covered, and this game is quite real, if you don't know that you are in the game world now, you can't tell whether this is the game world or the real world.
Holding his right hand with brown linen gloves and feeling the slightly heavy body, Luo Tianhuan felt that the current body was similar to that of an ordinary person, no longer accompanied by a sense of lightness, as if the world had no weight, but once again experienced the heaviness of the world for a long time.
Since there is no mirror, Luo Tianhuan doesn't know what he looks like now, but seeing that the people around him don't care much about him, then my current appearance should be very ordinary, right?
It's a pity that it won't be long before it will change back......
Sighing silently, after glancing at the square where no flaws could be found, Luo Tianhuan stepped aside to familiarize himself with the use of this game system.
Recalling the content of the novice instructions attached to SAO's game equipment, Luo Tianhuan raised his right hand, and then slid lightly in the air, and five white buttons appeared in the air in front of him one after another.
"Hmm...... Character information, inventory, skills, friends, settings, and the same settings as in a regular game. ā
Saying that, Luo Tianhuan clicked on the character information bar, although it seems that the virtual interface is simple, but a lot of miscellaneous attributes on it dazzled Luo Tianhuan for a while, and he almost hit the street.
Looking at the status column with at least a dozen lines above, Luo Tianhuan was simply speechless, just a game, as for the accuracy of the genus to this?
After some tidying up, Luo Tianhuan finally figured out the role of these attributes.
Generally speaking, excluding those that are automatically added or increase or decrease with the increase or decrease of equipment, as well as attributes such as cold resistance, heat resistance, and hunger resistance, every time a character is upgraded, there are only two attributes that can be increased with the attribute points given by the game, that is, strength and agility.
Every time you increase a little bit of strength attributes, then all the attributes related to strength, such as attack power, blocking power, etc., will be greatly improved, and every time you increase the agility attribute, then not only the movement speed, but also the attack speed and other agility-related attributes will have a large increase.
And because Luo Tianhuan's current body is virtual in the game, and the level is still very low, it is no different from ordinary people.
Moreover, after some experiments, Luo Tianhuan has determined that his original bloodline and abilities cannot be used, well, after all, it is a virtual body, which is understandable.
So, is it a speed flow or a power flow?
Luo Tianhuan thought about his future direction, and decided to go to the speed flow, after all, the world's martial arts, only fast and not broken, no matter how powerful the attack, as long as it misses, it is useless, as for the problem of strength, just use equipment, skills and attack speed to make up for it.
After deciding on his own development route, Luo Tianhuan patted his face and walked into the town in front of him.
In the town, the rows of towering buildings are all antique, as if carved from giant stone carvings, and the streets are very bustling with people.
This is the starting town of the first level of Al Ayn Grant, a town that towers above the savannah, extending in all directions, with each passage leading to various regions, towns, villages, and even the monster areas outside the town.
In the game SAO, Ayn Grant is the main body of the whole game, which is an incomparably huge floating city suspended in the air, from top to bottom, divided into a total of 100 floors, each floor is very spacious in space, it is simply a small world, and players need to defeat the boss of each layer in order to open the portal to the upper floor.
"The best level 1 novice sword, the attack power is half higher than the weapon sent by the system, as long as two Keer coins, there are only three, while supplies last, come and take a look!"
"Homemade recovery potion, two bottles of one Kel coin, fight monsters, PK is not wrong, walk by, don't miss it!"
"Practice! Practice! I am professionally training, come if you need it! ā
"Is there a group to kill monsters? I have one of some groups! This big brother, do you form a group? Take me one, little brother, I'm good at fighting monsters, killing monsters, playing treasures, and picking up everything, but I don't know how to write pit characters, group me one! ā
ā¦ā¦
Listening to the shouts around him, Luo Tianhuan didn't expect that the games in the two-dimensional world were also so complaining......
Every newcomer who has just entered the SAO game has a start-up capital of ten Kel coins, and many people are hanging around those stalls in order to be able to level up faster at the beginning, buying equipment, buying potions, all in all, in such a lively atmosphere, there is no difference between this and the real world.
In this respect, Akihiko Kayaba, who founded SAO, is really a rare talent, of course, only in this kind of grassroots world where there is no mystery.
Glancing at the weapons placed on the stalls, Luo Tianhuan directly tilted his head and walked towards the monster area outside the town.
Indeed, those weapons are a little better than the weapons given away by the system for free, and the attack power is much higher, but they will still be eliminated soon.
Although there is such a good equipment, the leveling speed in the novice period will definitely be much faster, but for Luo Tianhuan, it is simply dispensable, the weapon attack is not enough, use skills to make up for it, brother has a rich combat experience and the combat skills taught by his mother personally, killing monsters or something, it's just a trivial matter, anyway, it's all about fighting monsters, so good weapons, sooner or later, there will be.
Luo Tianhuan was walking on the street, looking at the scenery along the way, and suddenly, a black-haired, blue-clothed, leather armor-clad teenager ran past him.
Is that...... Kirito?
Luo Tianhuan was slightly stunned, turned around, and looked at the young man who passed by him, of course, because he had not been transformed back into the real world by Kayaba Jinghiko, so Kirito's current appearance was a character image he created, but Luo Tianhuan still recognized him.
"Hey, guy over there, please wait a minute!"
Immediately after, a voice came from behind him, and another figure passed by him, calling Kirito in front of him.
Klein?
Looking at the guy with red hair and white clothes, who looked like a bad boy, or a bad uncle, Luo Tianhuan was a little stunned, this is too coincidental, just choose a way out of town, and meet these two good friends.
"You called me?" Hearing what seemed to be someone calling him, Kirito stopped and turned to the side, looking at the "bad uncle" who ran up suspiciously.
Klein bent down, his hands on his knees, took a few breaths, and asked Kirito, "Look at your unhesitating action, have you participated in the closed beta of SAO?" ā
"Count...... Sort of......"
"I'm playing this game for the first time today, can you tell me some tips on how to get started?"
"Uh......" Kirito was embarrassed for a while and hesitated.
"Please!" Klein folded his hands in a sincere attitude, then raised his right thumb, pointed to himself, and introduced himself: "My name is Klein, take care of me." ā
āā¦ā¦ My name is Kirito. Kirito showed a helpless expression, there was no choice but to take this "bad uncle" to level up.
Seeing that the two were talking, Luo Tianhuan didn't want to interrupt, and when they finished talking, he walked up, first said hello, and then pretended to be a novice, uh, although he was a novice, in short, he asked some questions about the skill bar and various other questions, and then said goodbye and continued to walk outside the city.
"This guy is really studious." Klein joked.
"Because you're a newbie, right? Maybe I came up to ask because I happened to hear what you said. Not understanding the humor of his "good friend" at all, Kirito pinched his chin and speculated.
