Chapter 31: Seventy-five Floors
Twenty-second floor, Kolaru, Mouton's home.
It's been three days since Yui left.
Yui's heart was worn around her neck by Asuna, and she could feel Yui's temperature all the time.
Mouton took all the ore he had stored to Liz and made the final upgrade for the current stage of Moonthirsty and Bloodthirsty.
The two of them, after receiving an email from Heathcliff today, the front line of the Raiders group is in big trouble and needs the help of the strength of the two, after the two of them discussed, adjusted their mentality, took all the equipment, and appeared on the fifty-fifth floor, Grandsam.
In the main hall of the Blood Alliance Knights' Conference, Mouton frowned and looked at Heathcliff, who was sitting at the conference table.
"All the scouts sent out were wiped out, and none of them came back alive?"
"Yes, after we found the boss's room, we sent a scout team to investigate, but unfortunately, none of the scouts returned, so, I think we are in big trouble."
Heathcliff clasped his hands and looked at Mouton and Asuna standing side by side, and said, "Therefore, for the upcoming boss battle, the front line of the Raiders group needs the strength of two people. ”
"Yes." Mouton and Asuna spoke in unison, glanced at each other, looked at Heathcliff, and Mouton said: "Preliminarily, the boss room on this floor should belong to the area where the transfer crystal is neutralized, right?" ”
"Not bad. Our five guilds sent a total of 20 scout teams, and the first batch of ten people arrived in the center of the room first, and the door to the room was closed tightly the moment the boss appeared. When the door of the room opened again five minutes later, the ten people, including the boss, had disappeared without a trace. ”
"How could it be ......" Asuna had a look of surprise on her face, and even Mouton was shocked.
Although I knew that the boss of the 75th floor would be very strong, I didn't expect that this time the official battle hadn't even started, and 10 people had already been damaged, despite the experience of the previous layers of the raider, the overall progress of the strategy of sao had slowed down a lot after entering the 70th floor, but this time there were still such heavy casualties!
"That's why we're gathering all the top players, and we hope that everyone will work together to beat this level." Heathcliff looked at the two men quietly, waiting for an answer.
"We can assist in this boss fight, however, in the boss fight, I will prioritize the safety of Asuna, and as for the others, I don't think I have that time to spare."
"Kiri......" Asuna tightened her right hand that was being held by Mouton.
Heathcliff smiled faintly and nodded, "It's natural, but I think when a person has someone to protect, he will definitely be able to burst out with infinite power." I'm looking forward to fighting with you Mouton. With five hours left before the battle begins, Mouton-kun and Asuna should take a good rest. What follows will be an uphill battle. With that, Heathcliff got up from his chair and walked out of the conference hall, disappearing from the sight of the two men.
"Let's go, Asuna, let's go out and rest for a while."
"Hmm."
On the lawn not far from the headquarters of the Blood Alliance Knights, Mouton and Asuna walked here, and after sitting down, Asuna looked at the blue sky and said, "For the rest of the few hours, will we rest quietly like this?" ”
"Asuna ......"
"What's wrong?"
"Can you not participate in this boss battle and wait for me to come back at home?" I don't know when Mouton's concern for Asuna has risen to this point.
The last time he killed the 74th floor, Mouton already felt that he needed to use all his strength, although at that time, because there were other people around him, in order to prevent casualties, Mouton was forced to use all his strength, but this time it was the same, with Asuna here, and in addition to the special level of the 75th floor, Mouton didn't know what would happen.
Even if he knew the plot of the original book, Mouton still didn't dare to be completely reassured, after all, the plot had changed a lot due to his own reasons.
"Kiri...... Why do you say such things all of a sudden......"
"Compared with the 75th floor guard boss and the previous guard boss, the two are not the same level at all, and the boss room can't use battle crystals, Asuna, I'm afraid I'll ...... when fighting"
"Kiri...... Do you go to that kind of place alone and leave me waiting at home? Asuna turned around, rested her head on Mouton's shoulder, and said, "If you can't come back, I'll kill myself, it's you who made me find the meaning of living in this world, let me stay at home and wait for you to come back, Kiri, you're really selfish." ”
"Asuna ......" Mouton clenched his fists and was silent for a while, before he sighed, "I'm sorry, I was wrong." ”
"No, Kiri-......" Asuna said, holding Mouton's palm, "Kiri, this is a sign of gentleness...... However, I hope you don't say this kind of thing, no matter when, no matter what the situation, I want to face it with you. ”
"Kiri, do you know, in fact, I'm really afraid of any danger to you, I really want to go back to the real world with Kiri, a real relationship, a real marriage......" Asuna stared at Mouton, her voice and delicate body began to tremble, Asuna was really worried about Mouton, worried that something would happen to him, and Mouton was the same!
The original Asuna was strong, cold and arrogant, and in the later slow contact with Mouton, she was gradually moved by Mouton, and it was only now that Asuna found that the bond between the two could no longer be easily eliminated.
Hearing that Mouton asked him to go home and wait was undoubtedly a psychological torture for Asuna, who was worried about Mouton's safety.
Mouton took Asuna into his arms, looked at Asuna who was about to burst into tears, Mouton stroked Asuna's hair, and said: "No matter what world you are in, Asuna is the person I care about the most, and I also want to have a real relationship with Asuna, go shopping, and even get married, so I said that kind of thing before." ”
"So, in the battle later, Asuna, we all have to work hard to clear this level."
"Kiri......
With a trembling cry, Asuna's hands and Mouton clasped tightly, Mouton's cheek pressed against Asuna's face, and smiled: "Come on together." ”
"Let's do it together."
……
Five hours passed in a flash, but for Mouton and Asuna, it was an indescribably warm relationship.
On the seventy-fifth floor, Corinia, the Diversion Gate Plaza, where Mouton and Asuna appeared with their left hands clasped with their right hands.
And the players who appeared here first were already gathered in twos and threes, either chatting or whispering about the battle assignment for a while.
After seeing the appearance of the 'Black Red Sword' Mouton and the 'Flash' Asuna, everyone was still talking, but most of their eyes fell on the two of them.
Seeing Kirito, Celica, Keita, Yuki, Klein, and Achill and other acquaintances coming in front of him, before Mouton could speak, Klein smiled and said, "Yo, it's here." ”
Mouton asked, "Are you all going to participate this time?" ”
"Well, what is it called, isn't it obvious? We're a member of the strategy team.,It's natural to get together when we encounter difficulties.,It's the two of you.,I heard that you've only been married for a few days.,I thought you wouldn't come.,But it really surprised us.。 Kirito raised his eyebrows and smiled.
"Then, when the boss battle is going on, everyone must cooperate with each other, but I left all the business of the store and came to support you." Achill crossed his arms and looked at the crowd with a smile.
Just when everyone was chatting, someone from behind teleported over, Mouton and the others looked in the direction of the visitor, and the blood-red uniforms suddenly came into view, and there was no doubt that the people who came were the members of the Blood Alliance Knights.
"Now that everyone is here, let's go." Heathcliff glanced at Mouton and the others, passed by Mouton's side, took out all the transfer crystals that were several times larger than ordinary transfer crystals, and looked at everyone: "Let's go." ”
Dozens of players walked into the portal and appeared at the door of the boss room on the seventy-fifth floor.
Mouton glanced around, his gaze already on Heathcliff.
"Are you ready? The members of the Blood Alliance Knights serve as the avant-garde, withstand the attack of the boss, and the rest of the people try to see through the attack mode of the boss, looking for opportunities to output, and it will be a difficult battle next, I hope you will cheer up all your spirits, I believe we will definitely break through the difficulties! After saying that, Heathcliff turned and walked towards the door, and with a push of his hand, the door to the boss's room quickly opened.
Mouton opened the skill list of the system and switched directly to the second knife stream, Moon by Moon and Bloodthirsty were held in both hands, Asuna also pulled out her weapon at this moment, the difficult war is about to begin!
