Chapter Thirty-Three: Return to the Town of the Beginning

On this day, Lin Yiyan held Yui in his left hand, followed by Yuzi in his right hand, and Yui's other hand led Asuna to the first floor of Ayn Grant, the town of Initiation! For the town of the beginning, whether it is Lin Yiyan or Yanzi or Asuna, they all have more complex feelings. Pen fun and pavilion www.biquge.info

Standing just outside the transfer door, looking around the huge plaza and the horizontal street opposite. This is the largest city in Ayn Grant, and the necessary functions for adventure are naturally more abundant than any other street. Prices are cheap, and there are many hotels and other businesses, so if you only think about efficiency, this is definitely the best place to use as a base.

For Lin Yiyan and Yanzi, this is the place where it first began, and it is also the place where they met the guys, just like the name of this town, this is the starting point of everything! Of course, as far as Lin Yiyan is concerned, this will also be the end point in the future!

"Mom?" Yui gently pulled Asuna's hand, looked at the distracted Asuna and asked curiously, "What's wrong?" ”

"Your mother's mood must be a little complicated right now!" Faced with Yui's doubts, Lin Yiyan sighed deeply and replied to Yui with a smile, "Here, for us, is the beginning of everything!" I guess that's the case for anyone! Scared and longing! ”

Lin Yiyan's answer made Yui deeply puzzled, Asuna smiled and stroked Yui's head, and said with a reminiscing expression, "Yes! I still remember the excitement I felt when I came into this world, in the form of Asuna, in the streets I had never seen and in the midst of people I didn't know. ”

Looking at the sky over the town, Asuna sighed deeply, "But, after that, everything changed!" When that so-called 'god' descended on me and declared that the world was an inescapable game of death, the first thing that came to my mind was my unfinished math homework! If you don't go back and finish your homework quickly, you will be scolded by the teacher in class the next day! ”

"Puff...... "Shh At this time, I was thinking about my own math homework! ”

"Maybe! If it hadn't been for the fact that I had been brought into the Wings of Liberty Guild, I think I might have survived a week or two, day by day, day by day! Asuna explained with mixed feelings, "From that day on, I kept wondering why there wasn't any outside help. Shut yourself in a hotel room in the town of the Beginning, squatting on a bed, and your head is in chaos! ”

"Sometimes I scream, or I bang on the wall while shouting! In the winter of the third year of junior high school, the joint entrance examination will be held soon, and the new semester will come soon! At that moment, for me, derailing from the established track of life is equivalent to the end of life! Every day is crazy about worry, and at that moment I believe it so much! ”

Lin Yiyan and Poison Island Tsuneko glanced at each other, and from Asuna's words, Poison Island Tsuneko heard the distress, worry and fear of all the people trapped in this game! And what Lin Yiyan thought of was, no wonder the program responsible for managing mental state management support would collapse, even Asuna, come to think of it, everyone's mental state was very bad at the beginning! However, perhaps it is precisely because of this that there will be an encounter between Lin Yiyan and Yui, so that Lin Yiyan doesn't know what kind of mentality he is at this moment.

"Mom!" Seeing Yui's worried gaze, Asuna bent down to pick her up, shook her head at Yui with a smile and said, "At this moment, I was thinking that instead of waiting for rescue, I should find a way to solve it myself and become a hero to solve this incident." That day, I gathered all my equipment, memorized all the reference manuals, and set off for the practice area. It was also at that moment that I met Koji, joined the 'Wings of Freedom' at her invitation, and finally met Yui! ”

"Perhaps, for a moment, I felt that this was destined by God!" Asuna smiled heartily, as if sweeping away all the gloom, looked at Yui in her arms and said gently, "If it were now, as long as Yui was by my side, I would feel that I could live for myself, and I would have such a lovely daughter as Yui!" ”

"Asuna! Yui is more than just a person's daughter~! Poison Island said deliberately with a jealous expression, "She's also my daughter!" ”

"Yes! Yui's father is Yi Yan! Mom is Asuna and Hiko! Yui, who jumped out of Asuna's arms, grabbed Asuna and Poison Island with her left and right hands respectively, and looked at Lin Yiyan with a smile and said.

"That's right!" Lin Yiyan smiled and rubbed Yui's little head vigorously.

As Lin Yiyan and his party walked towards the southern street, Asuna, who always felt a little strange, revisited the square while walking, and in the face of this situation, Asuna asked Lin Yiyan and the son beside her, "Don't you think it's strange?" Why are there so few people? ”

"That's right! I thought it was strange from the beginning, it stands to reason that the Transfergate Square in the starting town is quite spacious, considering that a year ago it was enough to accommodate more than 20,000 players, and it would not be surprising that on a normal day like this, it would be a little noisy because of the players taking a break everywhere. But all the figures in sight moved towards the transfer door or the exit of the plaza, and there were almost no people stopping or sitting on the benches. ”

Asuna and Poison Island Tsuneko's question and answer made Lin Yiyan very puzzled, and at the same time, he looked around, and what appeared in front of him was a huge clock tower in the center of the circular space with a stone floor, and a transfer door swaying with blue light below.

At the same time, the concentric slender flower beds that surround the tower extend outward, and several elegant white benches are lined in the middle of the grid. And just like Poison Island Tsuneko said, usually at this time, there are always people coming and going, and there are many players resting here on the benches, but at this moment, there are no people at all, only deserted streets and empty benches.

And Lin Yiyan knows very well that in the large-scale streets of the upper floor, the transfer gate square is always mixed because of the countless players coming and going. Some people are chatting from all over the world, some are recruiting team members, and some people are setting up simple stalls to sell, and it is almost impossible to move forward in a straight line because of the crowd of people gathered!

"Xiao Yi!"

"Huh?" Yan Zi asked Lin Yiyan, who turned around, "How many players are left here now?" ”

"I want to think about it...... If I'm not mistaken... There are about 18,000 players still alive! After Lin Yiyan calculated the data provided by Jarvis every day, he said slowly in a heavy tone, "In addition to those who died at the beginning, there are also those who died in the follow-up strategy, there are so many people left!" As for the starting town, about 30% of the starting towns, including the 'army', remained in the starting towns, so it was about 5,000 or 6,000 people, right? ”

"But with that kind of number, don't you think there are too few people here?" Asuna said.

"Listen to you...... Will they all gather at the market? Let's go see how? Lin Yiyan said, and at the same time, in the face of this situation, a look of doubt appeared on his face. However, Lin Yiyan and the others were destined to be disappointed, even if they walked into the street from the square and arrived at the market area with shops and vendors side by side, the streets were still very deserted, and only the shouting of NPC merchants with spirits resounded emptily throughout the street.

However, Asuna soon spotted a man sitting under a tree in the middle of the street, so she walked over and asked, "Excuse me, excuse me!" The man who looked up at the tree with a particularly serious expression replied in a troublesome tone without looking back, "What's the matter?" ”

"That...... What are you doing here? Also, why aren't there so many people here? Hearing this, the man finally turned his gaze to Poison Island and Asuna, and stared at their faces unceremoniously.

Seeing this situation, Lin Yiyan twitched the corners of his mouth and wanted to tell him, fortunately, you are in the game, or in a safe area, if you are in the practice area, or in the real world, it is guaranteed that in the next moment, you will definitely break your three legs, and guarantee that you will live half of your life without half of your body!

However, as if realizing something, the man, who was dressed in simple and light clothes and could hardly distinguish the guild he belonged to, was a little surprised when he faced the stunning faces of Asuna and Poison Island Tsuneko, but immediately turned his gaze to the tree on his head. Then he replied in a tactful tone, "Actually, I'd love to reply to you that it's a trade secret, but since you're a foreigner, that's fine...... You should be able to see that too, right? That tall branch. ”

Asuna and Tsunako looked in the direction the man was pointing. The branches of the tall street trees are covered with bright autumn leaves, and if you look closely, you can see a few yellow fruits growing in the shadow of the leaves. I heard the man continue, "Of course, because the street tree is an indestructible object, even if you climb it, let alone a fruit, you won't be able to pick a leaf. But that fruit drops a few times a day...... Although it will rot and disappear after only a few minutes, if you take the opportunity to pick it up, you can sell it to NPCs at a good price, and it tastes good. ”

"Huh?" Speaking of ingredients and props, Tsuna, who is very proficient in cooking, and Asuna, who is somewhat proficient, asked with a very interested look, "How much can that sell for?" ”

"Please keep this confidential. One can be sold for five kΓΆlls! The answer given by the man made Lin Yiyan, who was holding Yui, stumble and almost fell to the ground. For Lin Tuhao, who has never worried about money, Wukeer is completely a fraction of the little bit around him.

Just looking at the man's smug expression, Asuna and Poison Island Tsuneko glanced at each other, and the two were speechless for an instant. For the money they never lacked, in addition to being surprised that the price was too cheap, they also felt that it was completely incompatible with the labor of staying under the tree all day. In the end, Asuna, who was kind, reminded the man, "That, that...... Should I say that this is completely unprofitable...... If you go to the practice area and defeat a random worm, you can earn 30 kers. (To be continued.) )
