Chapter XXXIII

。 Pen, fun, and www.biquge.info

In the Black Iron Palace, where it was originally the "Room of the Resurrected", a huge metal tablet was set up that was not available during the closed test, and the names of all 10,000 players were engraved on its surface, and it was even very thoughtful to draw a simple and easy-to-understand horizontal line on the name of the dead player, and the time and cause of death were also recorded in detail next to it.

The first person to be given the honor of being marked with an elimination line appears three hours after the game starts.

The cause of death is not fighting monsters, but suicide.

The man came up with the argument that, given the structure of NERvGear, it should be able to automatically regain consciousness if it can cut the connection to the game system. So he jumped over the high fence at the southern end of the starting town, at the outermost observation deck of Ayn Grant.

No matter how wide your eyes are, you can't see the land below the floating castle of Al Nin Grant, all you can see is the endless sky and the white clouds. As many of the spectators leaned out of the observation deck to watch, the man's figure grew smaller and quieter with a long, long-tailed wail before disappearing into the clouds.

Two minutes later, the man's name was succinctly and mercilessly underlined. The cause of death reads "Falling from a height".

I really don't want to imagine what kind of experience he had in these two minutes. And from the inside of the game, it is not known whether the man has returned to the real world, or, as Kayaba said, caused the brain to be burned.

It's just that almost all the players think that if we can get out of here by such a simple means, then all of us should have been disconnected from the outside and rescued.

Even so, after that man disappears from the game world, there are still people who occasionally entrust their lives and deaths to the temptation of this simple result.

All players, including Kirito, can't have any sense of reality about the "death" in SAO.

That hasn't changed much even now.

The phenomenon of HP turning to zero and the polygons that make up the body being destroyed is all too familiar to them, that is, it is too similar to the feeling of "GAMEOVER" in ordinary games.

Therefore, there is probably no other way for us to understand the meaning of death in SAO except to experience it firsthand. The lack of realism should also be one of the determining factors for the rapid reduction of players.

Then again, the "army" and players who belong to other groups, especially those in the waiting group, will also show up after they slowly start to play the game, and there will be people who have lost their lives because of fighting monsters.

With a frightening death toll of 2,000 just a month into the game, all the remaining players were gripped by a dark sense of despair.

If the death toll continues to increase at this rate.

In less than half a year, 10,000 players will all die, and it is a fool's dream to break through the 100th floor, but now the first layer meeting is about to be held, no matter what the situation is later, the most important thing now is to raid the first layer.

This was the end of his thoughts, and Kirito followed the group to the place where the meeting was held.

The venue is a semi-circular building, which is quite like the ancient Roman Colosseum, but compared to the former, the area of the latter is too small.

There were dozens of people sitting here and there, some talking to each other, others staring at their system interfaces, but there was no doubt that they were all surrounded by other teammates.

But think about it, too, in order to ensure the survival rate, most of the people are now teamed up, compared to them, the proportion of solo players is too rare, but Kirito is no longer a solo player now.

Thinking of Zhang Xinyu, Kirito's tense face unconsciously showed a smile.

Finding an open spot and sitting down, he looked at the flat ground in front of him, which was in the center of the entire field, and was the best place to observe the whole field.

Now there was a blue-haired young man standing quietly, as if he was waiting for something, although Kirito's memory was not very good, but until now, he still remembered the blue-haired young man.

Unexpected meetings are always impressive.

Seeing that no one entered again, the blue-haired young man's eyes flashed with a trace of disappointment, but he hid it in an instant, looking at the only dozens of people in front of him, he sighed secretly in his heart.

I had expected that there would be no one for a long time, but I didn't expect that among the more than 10,000 people, only a few dozen people had such courage.

However, the sooner this action is taken, the better.

"Slap~smack~ smack! Okay, it's almost begins. The blue-haired young man clapped his hands, attracting the attention of the people around him, and the noisy venue suddenly fell silent, as if a needle could be heard falling on the ground.

"So, first of all, thank you all for being invited, my name is Diabel, what about my profession...... Self-righteous knight. Diabel smiled, his eyes together in a slit, and his tone was humorous.

The moment the words fell, the surrounding atmosphere immediately came alive, and everyone in the venue laughed.

"There's no career system."

"Is the meeting a joke too?"

"Is there any new skill?"

Although it was extremely noisy, everyone's tense hearts were successfully relaxed by Diabel, and the shadows left by the previous strategy also dissipated somewhat, and the atmosphere became more harmonious.

Terrific means, this is the first impression of Kirito's heart, if it is under his leadership, maybe ......

Seeing this, Diabel nodded in satisfaction, and then waved his hands to signal everyone to calm down.

With a smile on his face, he said with a serious expression: "Today, our team found the boss's room on the top floor of that tower. ”

"Really, fake." There are endless doubts, but because this is someone else's home field, most of them are just muttering quietly.

Ignoring the doubts from the audience, Diabel continued, "We must defeat the boss, reach the second level, and tell all of you who are still waiting in the town of Origin that this game of death will end one day, and it is our duty to gather here now!" ”

Speaking of this, Diabel's clenched right hand was placed in front of his chest, and a confident smile appeared on his face, encouraging: "Yes! Everyone! ”

The people around subconsciously looked at the teammates around them, looked at each other, and nodded hesitantly, although they were still a little confused, but Diabel's words undoubtedly inspired everyone's courage.

The infected people applauded their palms one after another, and some even whistled and cheered loudly.

Even Kirito, who was usually expressionless, smiled slightly.

“OK! Then without further ado, let's start the strategy session now! "Diabel hits the railroad while it's hot.

got everyone's applause and cheers, but there was no pride and pride on his face, it was still the same smile as before, and commanded: "First of all, please form a team of six people, the first-level boss is not something that ordinary teams can fight, and the team must be gathered to form a team!" ”
