Do you believe in Sister Xuefeng?

With headphones of the same style as Baihui, Naoba smiled wordlessly and bitterly. Baihui didn't know who the makers and promoters of the death game were, they only knew that the death game couldn't be stopped.

As for the reason, probably because Baihui didn't ask, Sister Xuefeng didn't tell her the answer, and Naoba himself didn't tell his friend's plans.

If Baihui knew about it, he would probably immediately swing a knife at Sister Xuefeng, whom he admired.

Because if the world hurts itself, Baihui will definitely declare war on the whole world with the identity and power of one person at the next moment when he knows it.

So, so be it, you just need to know it yourself. From beginning to end, he was just a selfish, ruthless, cowardly, and cowardly mortal.

That's right, Naoba knows who is behind this death game.

On the first night of the incident, I wanted to know the true ~ phase of myself, so I went to ask Sister Xuefeng. And Sister Xuefeng was unexpected, but she was unexpected, and she said all the answers straightforwardly.

β€œSAO? Want to know the true ~ phase of this game? Since Naoha wants to know, I'll tell you directly, it's not an important thing anyway. ”

"The official open beta of SwordArtOnline, including the release of NERvGear, has been remade and tweaked by our Dragon Overwatch."

"The reason? Because the world has given us a commission, and paid the price, and we act on it, and that's it. ”

【Plane Order: Carnival of the Dead】

[Entrustment restrictions: This entrustment is a mandatory entrustment, and the player whose HP is returned to 0 shall not be saved by any means during the execution of the entrustment, and any complete cheating means shall not be used against the player, and the way to clear the game is to kill the boss of the last floor, or if a player exceeds the limit of the system, when the number of deaths exceeds two-thirds, it is forbidden to participate in the strategy]

[Commissioned content: After completing the public beta of 10,000 deaths of SAO games, the "truth" of this game shall not be announced in any way before the evening of the first day of the game, and no player shall be discouraged or prevented from entering the game in any way.] Unreal? Authentic? Game? Reality? No, none of this matters. Because human beings are creatures who cannot truly understand themselves if they cannot face life and death directly! 】

[Let's start the carnival, this is a game that belongs to human beings, it is also the reality of the world, and it is a carnival of death! 】

That's right, the world handed in the commission, and the Overwatch Dragon carried out the commission, and that's it.

Assisted Baihui to complete various commissions from searching for cats to killing like crazy, and saw the true reality of this world, as well as the darkness of the world and humanity.

Even if he didn't kill people himself, he had already stained his hands with blood, and he had no position or qualifications to question Sister Xuefeng.

Just kill the guilty? Just killing people who deserve to die? Even if you have made the highest feats to save the world, you will never be able to deny and clear yourself of the guilt of killing.

After Baihui's action began, Naoba subconsciously cooperated. As a partner, as well as rear support, although Naoba is distracted, but hundreds of times of cooperation make Naoha's support without any mistakes, and Baihui didn't find out that Naoba was thinking about something else at this time.

When Naoba came back to his senses, Baihui had already entered Conference Room 207. Only a dozen seconds later, dozens of people in the conference room were all killed by Baihui.

Looking at the corpse-strewn conference room on the screen, Naoba sighed softly. Although I have long been accustomed to this scene in the past year, even so, I still feel discomfort somewhere in my heart.

I guess I'm still a human, not an inhuman monster.

There is still enough resistance to killing.

There is still enough fear of death.

There is still enough respect for life.

However, compared to the first time when he accidentally invaded a camera, Baihui, who saw the killing with a stone mask, almost had a nervous breakdown countless times better.

It was one night, in the middle of a deserted path, a girl wearing a stone mask used a small knife and slashed four thugs at will with a calm to indifferent attitude.

Although the other party hid his appearance, although the resolution of the video was checked to the extreme, Naoba clearly understood who the girl was at the first glance when he saw the other party.

And after the girl finished killing and left the camera lens range for a while, she returned to the camera again, and at this time, the stone mask on her face had been moved to the side, revealing her face, which dealt a complete blow to Naoba's spirit.

His best friend, Baihui, stepped over the corpse and blood without any expression, and the small knife in his hand was not stained with any blood.

The last trace of self-deception in my heart was ruthlessly pierced.

It is precisely because the other party is his sworn friend that he cannot accept it, and the other party can commit the crime of killing without hesitation or burden.

It is precisely because the other party is his best friend that even though his spirit is close to collapse, he still insists on processing the relevant images.

Now that I think about it, that inadvertent invasion and the processing of images were the opportunity for me to start to become the rear support of Baihui.

When he came to Baihui the next day and asked Baihui about the things in the video, Baihui chuckled and said this to himself.

"It's really Naoba.,Perfectly hacked into the camera.,Modify all the relevant images.,And there is no trace left.。 You know, that was my first commission, and I was ready to flee. ”

"Hehe, of course it's a joke. Because Sister Xuefeng promised to help me with everything, there was only one thing I needed to do, and that was to kill in the dark. ”

"Why? Why did you say yes? Why go and kill? Because I accepted a girl's last commission, and the four people I killed also need to pay the due price for what they did before, that's all. ”

"This is not me? Hehe, I'm still me, and I'm still exercising the killing thing in time, and it's also under the control of my own consciousness. However, it is also true that I am not the 'me' I used to be. ”

"During the treatment, Sister Xuefeng gave me two paths to choose from. The first way, Sister Xuefeng will completely cure me, and I will return to the normal world, without paying any price, and all of this has not happened to me. However, I chose the second path. ”

"If you want to get something, you have to give something."

"By wearing this mask, I gained power, and in return, I abandoned my human identity and became an inhuman being, an immortal and immortal monster."

"So, from that day on, the little wood Baihui who is a human has died, and the one standing here is the little this wood Baihui who is a monster."

"I'm not a man anymore, Naoba."

He didn't ask Baihui why he didn't hesitate to abandon his human identity in order to gain power and become an immortal monster.

Because as a sworn friend, she knows very well that no matter how much she asks, Baihui will not tell herself the real answer to her choice.

is even more because he already knows the real answer to Baihui's choice.

"In this world, without power, it is original sin."

"Abandon the identity of the human in exchange for power."

"This time, it's my turn to protect you, Naoba."

These are the three words that Baihui said when he stepped over the corpse in the video.

Even if he couldn't see anything clearly or hear anything, he knew from the bottom of his heart that it was these three sentences that Baihui said at that time.

This is what Sister Xuefeng once said, the "bond" that is engraved in the soul, lost countless memories, and still cannot be broken.

What is the reason why I actually agreed to Baihui's invitation in person and became Baihui's partner, or rear support staff.

Probably because he didn't want Baihui to go into the evil way, he could prevent Baihui's complete depravity at the last moment. However, it is more likely that it is because I don't want to go further and further with Baihui.

When did he start to be inseparable from Baihui, who had been sticking to himself before, timid and cowardly, but now he was willing to abandon his human identity for himself?

Probably at the last moment, the timid and cowardly Baihui pushed himself away from the kitchen knife that brought the breath of death at the cost of his own life.

What you get, you have to give.

Since Baihui is willing to fight against the whole world for himself, then he will become the most reliable backing for Baihui.

"The operation is over, all the personnel involved have been cleared, and now they are back to the base."

"Understand, the operation is over, stop all facility intrusions, and start removing traces."

I was distracted again, is my current condition really so bad......

Cleaned up the footage taken during Operation Baihui again, and then completely cleaned up the traces of his invasion. But seriously, it doesn't matter if you leave even a little trace, because it's a miracle that a device like a roadside camera hasn't been hacked more than three times in a week. In this case, unless the other party invites a real god-level existence, everyone can really trace themselves through traces.

As for the fact that there is really a great god joining? We also have a real god in charge.

Turning off the computer, Naoba stood up and walked towards the door: "Now, let's go take a shower." ”

At the door, Naoba stopped, and then pasted himself on the wall, and the next moment, on the small monitor on the side, there was his current height and weight, measurements, and so on.

"It's 159 now. 7mm, is it? ”

If you want SAO to stop now, it's impossible, even if this world regrets it, the Overwatch Dragon Wanshi House where Sister Xuefeng is located, even if it will fight against the whole world, it will still continue to complete this commission.

And for your brother to be able to leave the game now, you need to pay for everything you have, from life to soul. Not to mention whether he is really willing to pay, even if it is for Baihui, this price is unacceptable to him.

So he could only choose another plan proposed by Sister Xuefeng, pay the price, and then Kirito, that is, his brother, will have a great increase in defense when he is red, and when he has a little HP left, he will lock this drop of blood for a certain period of time.

Since delegating only restricts players who cannot save HP to 0, any action against the player is allowed until HP returns to 0. And complete cheating refers to the means of being directly invincible, indestructible, etc., and others have no solution to it. A period of automatic blood locking, because there is a way to crack it, so it is not a complete cheat.

And for this, the price you need to pay is your height.

Your height will decrease by 0 each time. 1mm。
