June 15, 2022, SAO corporate headquarters.

Kayaba Akihiko held a red CS-1 potion in his hand, his eyes flickering, "God, what do you want me to do?" ”

"Am I all wrong? Isn't it the only way to reach eternal immortality through the transfer of consciousness? ”

Kayaba Akihiko's eyes flickered, "A semi-finished product, now it only has three effects, accelerating metabolism, increasing cell activity, and accelerating recovery, and it is difficult to see the dream of immortality, even if this CS-1 potion can increase the life span of a hundred years, the final destination is death." ”

"The Nordic consortium and the South American consortium, the low-IQ high-level leaders, were confused by the hundred-year lifespan, and actually agreed to the agreement to transfer the 'shaking light' virtual technology."

Kayaba Kizuhiko stared at the red CS-1 potion, picked up a syringe and injected it into his body, "Regardless of the longevity effect of the 'Healing Factor' for the time being, the existing three major effects can increase the success rate of 'Consciousness Transfer'. ”

Reflecting on the latest meeting report sent by the consortium, Akihiko Chewaba pondered: "The SAO virtual game is ready and ready to be launched immediately, but in order to seize the virtual market, the consortium has accelerated its itinerary and only vetoed the previous 'consciousness transfer' project. ”

"If the 'Consciousness Transfer' project is put on hold, then the deadline for putting it back on the agenda will be faltered, and all my previous efforts will be in vain."

As a researcher, a genius in quantum physics and a genius designer of games, he has a fanaticism and confidence in his own products, and will never put his beliefs on others.

A bewitching smile appeared on Akihiko Kayaba's face, "'Shaking Light' and SAO are both worlds created by me, and anyone can easily get their hands on them without my consent. ”

"Whether it's 'Shake Light' or SAO, the original purpose was to be developed for the 'Consciousness Transfer' project."

"The soul of the 'shake light' clone cannot meet the selection criteria of the 'consciousness transfer' material, so the soul experiment of the social person has become an imperative part, how can I give up?"

"Even if I am ruined and cannot die well, I will take this step."

A touch of fanaticism appeared on Kayaba's face, "For the great rejuvenation of the entire human race, in order to forge an eternal and immortal human civilization, a little sacrifice is worth it. ”

The corners of Akihiko Kayaba's mouth curled up and smiled lightly, "Today is the day when the 'Shake Light' world and the SAO world will jointly launch the service, and it will also be the first step for mankind to move towards eternity, and the pace of human history will change from this moment." ”

"The 'Consciousness Transfer' project was launched."

Big Four Consortiums, Summit, June 16, 2022.

There were thundershowers in the sky, and the hot weather swept the whole world, and the opening of the SAO world should have been a major event for the whole world to celebrate.

However, all this changed because Akihiko Kayaba was alone.

Located in the Times House in London, the atmosphere is particularly heavy today.

Xiao Xing looked a little angry, and said coldly: "Ladies and gentlemen of the Nordic and South American consortiums, do you know that Kayaba Jinghiko has a premeditated plan to coerce virtual gamers all over the world. ”

Andrew stared at Xiao Xing and said coldly: "When the matter comes, Xiao Dong should not escape the involvement." ”

Xiao Xing was even more angry: "Kayaba Jinghiko is a member of your Nordic consortium, such a crazy person, you actually let him control the supreme authority of 'Shaking Light' and SAO. ”

Banat said in a low voice: "Xiao Dong, let's dissipate our anger, now is not the time to shirk responsibility, let's think about how to solve the matter of more than 100 million players." ”

Xiao Xing looked at Barnett coldly, "I shirk my responsibility, Akihiko Kayaba is not my person, how do I know that this madman is coercing more than 100 million players, what the hell is he going to do?" ”

Xiao Xing looked at Andrew, "I think you must know his purpose, let's talk about it, now there are players dying in the game every moment, if we don't solve the problem, we don't know when we will be shot by crazy people." ”

Andrew said with a little tiredness: "Since it has come to this point, everyone is a grasshopper on the same rope, and I have nothing to hide?" ”

Andrew distributed a report to the conference attendees.

Xiao Xing flipped through the report and read it carefully.

A few minutes later.

Xiao Xing closed the report, thought about it for a while, knew the cause and effect, a look of anger appeared in his eyes, and he stared at Andrew, "You guys in Northern Europe and South America are really ruthless enough, and you dare to carry out human experiments in society." ”

Andrew smiled coldly: "Do it again, there is no black history, this is the world of assets, don't mention hypocritical justice to me......"

Banat smiled and said slowly, "Since everyone is willing to get together and discuss solutions, don't quarrel anymore." ”

Banat turned his head to look at Xiao Xing: "Things have reached such a point, it is no longer a matter of right or wrong, and the people outside will not listen to your explanation, in their eyes, Xiao Dong, you are also one of the participants, and the 'Shake Light' server can be in your hands." ”

Xiao Xing was silent, "Then you say how to solve it, there must be a plan to solve this problem." ”

Andrew said slowly: "There is a core element in Akihiko Kayaba's plan, which is to continuously improve the player's survival consciousness through the player's attack on the 100-layer boss of Aingrant, and in the continuous battle, improve the potential of human beings, and finally achieve the goal of 'consciousness transfer'." ”

"This is a death game, human beings are like being in another world, constantly improving their skills and willpower, each time they clear a level, the player's living space expands one step until they get real freedom, if they lose the battle, they are real death."

Xiao Xing showed a thoughtful expression, "The world of scientists is really incomprehensible. ”

Banat said lightly: "From the perspective of our normal human beings, it is a crazy thing to coerce more than 100 million players, but for scientists, this is just a screening of experimental materials, in their eyes, as long as it does not threaten the life and death of human beings, and the partial sacrifice brings the overall sublimation, it is a project worth investing in." ”

Andrew continued: "Although Akihiko Aoba has the highest permission ID, the game server is based on the real world, and it is not that the permissions cannot be modified, but the player who is coerced will die. ”

Andrew said here and paused: "However, from the beginning of the research and development of virtual technology, I have prepared a backdoor ID, although this back ID cannot directly contact the permission of Akihiko Kayaba, but partial modifications can still be made." ”

Andrew sighed: "It's a pity that this ID was discovered by Kayaba Akihiko as soon as he logged in, and he could only directly reduce the clearance conditions to 75 layers." ”

Xiao Xing paused, "You mean that as long as you clear the 75th floor of the boss, even if Aingrant clears the level, the player can get out of the SAO world." ”

Andrew nodded, "The core equation has been solidified, and the Aingrun World Environment Running Equation will run according to the original trajectory, and Kayaba Akihiko cannot change it even if he has the highest authority ID." ”

Xiao Xing breathed a sigh of relief, "I finally heard a good news, so what we have to do now is to send the professional strategy team into the SAO world and complete the customs clearance conditions." ”

Andrew nodded, "I've started recruiting a senior professional game strategy team to enter the SAO world and clear the customs." ”
