January 1, 2024.

At the beginning of the new year, Ayn Grant has become much more lively.

Last year's New Year, because the game had just begun, most people were in a panic, so the rare New Year was not well spent.

And at the current pace of the strategy, this New Year is likely to be the last New Year for Ayn Grant.

Although they have been imprisoned here for more than a year, the environment here is indeed very good, not so much imprisonment as enjoyment, so this rare New Year should naturally be enjoyed.

It's the same with the strategy group.,Because it's the New Year.,The strategy group will stop the strategy for ten days.,The first is to let the members of the strategy group who are in high-intensity battles all day take a break.,The second is to prepare for the upcoming 75-floor boss battle.。

And then......

Early in the morning, the first shocking news of the year came from Ayn Grant.

The Sealer challenges the seventy-four bosses alone, and then wins.

Nowadays, the strongest character among the players is undoubtedly Kirito.

But this matter, even the ordinary members of the Raiders team did not know.

Most of the people who know about this are the elites in the strategy group.

And the recognized strongest, now it is generally considered to be Miku, followed by Lin Yu, and then Kirito.

If a person can already challenge the boss of the 74th floor alone, then the boss of the 75th floor should not be a big problem in the past without death.

With this in mind, the new year begins......

"It's a pity that you have to come out to do tasks on a rare holiday." Lin Yu was walking down the street with Miku, complaining.

That's right, although the strategy group is now on holiday, most of the strong ones have been assigned tasks during the holiday.

Asuna and Yuki witnessed a murder in a safe area just before the holiday and are now investigating.

As for Lin Yu and Miku, it is to deal with the smiling coffin.

Recently, the smiling coffin seems to have become active, although I haven't heard of malicious PK deaths, but malicious PK incidents are indeed increasing, and it has indeed caused a lot of trouble.

Because even if the strength of the chairman Poh is placed in the strategy group, it is also a top-notch existence, so Lin Yu and Miku were sent over.

Although Heatscliffe wants Kirito to go too, Kirito has just solved the boss on the seventy-fourth floor alone, and it is also appropriate to take a break.

"Na~master, don't complain about this, I don't think the master wants to see real malicious PK killings, right?" Miku asked.

"Well, yes, but this matter should take three or two days, and if this matter is resolved, there are still eight days to rest well, which is not bad." Lin Yu nodded.

"Obviously, the master has been resting for twenty days before, and if he continues to rest, he will definitely become lazy." Miku said.

"Sleep until you wake up naturally, this is the highest state of life I pursue......" Lin Yu looked longing.

"Okay, okay, this mission has been solved, there is time for you to sleep, before that, try to be patient." Miku said as he looked at the booklet in his hand.

This pamphlet lists almost all of the more famous guild residences, and the Smile Coffin is one of them.

And this booklet was taken out by Miku at the request of Asuna from the database of the Knights of the Blood Alliance.

"So, this is it, right?" Lin Yu stopped.

"That's right...... ......" Miku looked at the depression, a little unsure.

"Looks like people aren't here anymore." Lin Yu shrugged.

Just know it's not that simple.

How could Poh be caught so easily?

"Looks like we'll have to gather the news first......," Miku said helplessly.

The camera pans to Yuki and Asuna.

"Kill people in a safe area...... It seems like a great thing......" Asuna frowned.

"According to the current clues, all the evidence points to the hand of the smiling coffin, but how to kill people in the safe zone is also a very important issue." Yuki said.

If you want to cause HP loss in the safe zone, it is only possible if two people apply for PK.

But there was no PK winner before.

And after the investigation, the evidence all pointed to the smiling coffin.

"Then let's go to the smiling coffin first, maybe we can know something after that group of people." Asuna made a decision.

"So, Shumit and Yurko, trouble the two of you, we have to go to the Smile Coffin to investigate first, if you don't feel at ease, you can go to the Blood Alliance Knights, I think there, at least there won't be anything similar to the previous incident." Asuna said to the two in front of her.

Yurko is the person who witnessed the whole incident, and Xiumitt, who is the person of the Holy Dragon Alliance, although it seems that there is no connection, but the two people were from the same guild before.

And the same is true of the victims.

The cause of the incident was a ring dropped by the previous monster, and the attributes were very good, and there was a disagreement in the guild at that time, some of them advocated selling it, and some of them advocated keeping it for use, but the final decision was to sell it......

Originally, it was sold, but the problem is that the person who went to sell the ring didn't come back after he went, and on the friend menu, it turned black.

That is to say, dead......

So the three people who did not advocate selling became the object of suspicion.

But without evidence, nothing happened.

Although the disagreement grew, the guild was dissolved.

And the victims, Schumit and Yurko, were the three who opposed the sale.

Now, Yurco and Schumit believe that the people who died before have come back to ask for their lives, so they have no objection to killing people in the safe zone.

Only ghosts don't care about the rules of the system.

Schumit even uttered this sentence in a panic.

But there can be no ghosts in the game.

So Asuna and Yuki decided to go to the smiling coffin first to check on the situation.

"Now, luckily, according to the previous clues, it seems that the Smile Coffin killed Grintherudan and then snatched the ring, and then killed people in a safe area in order to seal this thing up......" Asuna asked.

"yes...... But in the safe zone, it is impossible to kill, and besides, that Grimmer Rutan has also been married, according to the marriage of this world, the inventory should be shared, so that ring, even if the person holding it is killed, it should be ......" Xing suddenly stopped.

"You mean...... The real culprit is ......" Asuna paused and looked at Yuki.

"The previous guild leader, the man who went out to sell the ring, was married, Greenlock...... Asuna asked.

"Maybe, but if he did it, then he should be famous, according to Yuerko's description, it seems that there is nothing wrong with that person." Yuki shook his head.

"Anyway, let's go to the smiling coffin first, no matter what, this matter is inseparable from the smiling coffin." Yuki said.

"It's fine." Asuna nodded, and the two continued their journey.
