Despite finding a way to return to the real world, Luo Jie is once again caught in a dilemma.

If he chooses to use the [Key of Time and Space] to return to the real world, then it means that his journey to the illusion will be fruitless.

Forget about points or something, but there are four things that Luo Jie doesn't want to give up no matter what.

Hidden class [Cheater], D-gold materials [Snow Dragon's Horn] and [Snow Dragon's Heart].

There is also the loyal 2B young lady in front of her - [Yurha No. 2 Type B General-purpose Combat Robot].

After some thought, a bold plan gradually took shape in Luo Jie's mind.

This plan requires the consumption of two [Keys to Time and Space], and if he wins the bet, he can successfully complete the hidden quest on the 100th floor and obtain the legendary SAO core - [The_Seed].

Of course, even if he loses the bet, it is nothing, he still has three [Keys of Time and Space] left in his hand, and it is a big deal to use the last one left to directly get out of the illusion, and he will not lose all the games.

"2B, get ready, we're about to get out of here."

"Okay, Commander."

……

Late at night.

The first floor of the floating city "Ian Grant".

The old royal capital of the Seven Shields Alliance.

Located in the largest Heroes Square on the central axis of the royal capital, the teleportation array, which had not moved for five years, suddenly lit up with a familiar teleportation white light.

Two figures appeared in the dissipating white light.

One is a plain-looking young man in a long black trench coat, while the other is a blonde giant fairy with a holy temperament wearing a sexy white veil.

It was Luo Jie and the former saint "Christine".

"Night, I didn't expect that you would really find a way to open the teleportation array......"

When Luo Jie found her and said that he wanted to take her back to the royal capital with her, "Christine" thought that Luo Jie wanted to leave the 55th floor and wanted to go crazy, but she didn't expect that the other party would really bring her back to the familiar royal capital.

"I can turn on a teleportation like this again, so we must find the Dark Elf Queen "Orika" this time."

Luo Jie didn't tell the truth to "Chrystin", the last chance to teleport was his hole card to leave this world, and he would never reveal it to anyone until the last moment.

Even the "Chrystin" in front of him, who has long treated himself as his wife, can't do it.

"Chrysten" was very smart, and when he heard Luo Jie say this, he already understood his whole plan.

Capture the dark elf queen "Orika", and then use the last teleportation opportunity to go directly to the 100th floor to seize the divine power, and finally lift the curse left by the former goddess, so that the world of "Ian Grant" can be restored to its original state.

"Night, how are we going to find Orika?"

Although "Chrysten" has lived for hundreds of years, she has always been a mascot in the temple, and she may still have some insight in terms of power and strategy, but she has no experience in professional things like finding people.

"Just wait here, maybe she'll come to us soon."

As Luo Jie had predicted, in less than a quarter of an hour, the streets in the direction of the palace were soon filled with torches like long dragons, and the chaotic sound of horses' hooves could be clearly heard.

Luo Jie released Shizuka Jukawa, who had turned into a golden giant wolf, and let "Christine" sit on the wolf's back, and then walked fearlessly with 2B to the approaching firelight.

The horse team immediately dispersed after arriving at the square, and thousands of members of the BLACK Beast Mercenary Group surrounded Luo Jie and the others with torches and weapons held high.

With the light of the fire in the other party's hand, Luo Jie looked around and did not find the figure of the dark elf queen "Orica", but in front of the crowd, he saw a short-haired middle-aged man with a giant sword on his back and a scar on his face.

Although it was the first time he had seen him in this SAO world, Luo Jie still recognized the true identity of this giant sword scar man at a glance.

This is exactly the first male protagonist of the so-called "Serving the Country" in the original work of "BALCK Beast", which pushed all nine heroines and established the so-called "serving the country" - the leader of the BLACK Beast Mercenary Group, known as "Walter", known as the "Black Beast".

As a "winner in life" in an alternative sense, Luo Jie really can't help but be impressed by this man whose marksmanship is higher than his swordsmanship.

"Oh? Didn't run away? ”

"Walter" jumped off the horse's back, took off the sword that was almost equal to his height behind his back, and stuck his backhand in front of him, looking at Luo Jie with interest, as well as 2B and "Christine" beside him.

"Seriously, I didn't expect Her Excellency the Holy Maiden to do such a desperate thing as sealing the teleportation array, and I didn't expect that you would dare to return to the royal capital without honestly hiding in the upper echelons...... Or can it be understood that you are despising me? ”

After a pause, he shrugged as if asking himself, "But it doesn't matter, after all, I don't like to talk to people who are about to die—brothers, do it!" Except for our former Holy Maiden, all the others have been killed! ”

"Don't move!"

Luo Jie raised his hand and threw off one of the fastest bandits off the horse, and said sharply with his eyebrows upside, "Have you all forgotten the explosion of the Inheritance Temple five years ago?" ”

"Wait!" Hearing Luo Jie's words, "Walter" couldn't help but change his face, and immediately stopped all his subordinates.

The temple attack battle five years ago can be said to be the biggest loss since the establishment of the BLACK Beast Mercenary Regiment, not only lost an archmage-level deputy leader, but also buried nearly half of the main members of the group, which can be called a great injury.

Although I didn't see those exploding steel golems this time, the silver-haired girl with a strange black blindfold and the silver cube in her hand exuded a terrifying aura even more terrifying.

"Walter" had a hunch that if he hadn't stopped in time just now, the entire BLACK Beast Mercenary Group would probably be a thing of the past by now.

"A wise choice."

Luo Jie nodded, motioning for 2B to retract her energy core.

The cost of self-detonation maintenance of 2B is too expensive, and if it is not necessary, he really does not want to use this trick.

What's more, he wasn't sure if the dark elf queen "Orica" was hiding nearby and secretly observing, in case she was killed in such an unknown way, it would be a lot of fun.

"You all stand back." "Walter" waved his hand to the group of subordinates with a gloomy face, and said coldly: "Ming people don't say dark words, you and I both know that the elven saint "Christine" and the dark queen "Orica", these two goddess reincarnations are the key to obtaining the divine power in the 100th layer of the "Red Jade Palace...... Since we are all for the theocracy of the "Ayngrant" world, let's abandon any conspiracy and use the sword in our hands to decide the belonging of these two women in the most direct way. ”

Luo Jie shrugged noncommittally, and the expression on his face gradually became calm and dignified.

The black [Ming Knife Puffer Fish Poison] drew its knife out of its sheath, and a violent hurricane suddenly stirred up.
