When Lixia was in contact with Asuna and the others, Zheng Shuanglong, who was frowning and preparing to take a sip of tea, suddenly picked up his head, looked in the direction of the entrance of the church, and said, "Someone is coming, and ...... alone."

"Huh...... Are there any guests again......" Hearing Zheng Shuanglong's words, Sasha asked in surprise. Pen % fun % Pavilion www.biquge.info

A loud knock on the door overlapped with Sasha's words, resounding throughout the room.

Along with Saxia, who has a short sword around her waist, and Zheng Shuanglong, who follows the past into the restaurant for the sake of prudence, is a slender female player.

The long silver hair is tied into a ponytail, and the sky-blue eyes on the upright face, which can be described as smart, shine impressively.

Lixia's first impression of this female gamer included the longing that she felt that she was really beautiful and mature. Later, when I looked at her gear, I couldn't help but stiffen.

Although obscured by an iron-gray cloak, the dark green top, loose thigh-length pants, and metal armor that glows faintly like stainless steel are the uniforms of the "army". On the right hangs a short sword from his waist, and on the left hangs a circle of bound black leather whips.

The children, who had noticed the women's dress, also closed their mouths, and stopped moving with a wary look in their eyes. However, Sasha smiled at the children, and then said as if to reassure them, "Don't be afraid of this person, let's continue eating." ”

Although it didn't seem very reliable at first, Sasha, who was absolutely trusted by the children, said this, and everyone breathed a sigh of relief, and the restaurant instantly resumed its noise. At this time, the female player who walked to the round table bowed lightly to Sasha, who invited her to sit down, and then sat down on the chair.

Lixia, who was a little confused about the situation, asked Zheng Shuanglong with her eyes.

Zheng Shuanglong, who noticed Lixia's gaze, tilted his head slightly and said to Lixia: "She was asked for help by Miss Liyeer, well, probably like this." ”

The silver-haired whip envoy named Yuriel looked directly at Lixia for a moment, then nodded and said, "When we first met, I was Yuriyer, who belonged to the Guild Ayngrunt Liberation Army. ”

"The Ayn Grant Liberation Army?" Lixia **** this name for the first time. On weekdays, the army and the army are called, but the specific name of the army is the guild, and it is the first time that Lixia, who doesn't care much about the affairs of the guild, has heard of it.

Yuriel shrunk her neck slightly, and said apologetically in her voice: "Ah, I'm sorry, this is the full name of the army, after all, as a member of the Aingrun Liberation Army, in abbreviation, it is a little less dignified......"

Yuriel's voice is smooth and showy bass. This made Lixia, who was only fourteen years old and often felt that her voice was very childish, even more envious, and said hello back. "When we first met, I was a member of the Void Brigade, my name was Lishia, and this kid was Yui."

Yui, who had spent a long time emptying the plate with the soup and was now challenging the juice, raised her face and looked at Yuriel. Though she was slightly suspicious, she immediately smiled and turned her gaze back again.

And the moment Yuriel heard the Void Brigade, her azure eyes widened, and she said in shock: "Void Brigade, the strongest guild...... I see, no wonder it was easy to deal with that group of people. ”

After realizing that "that group" was referring to yesterday's violent intimidation group, Lixia once again strengthened her vigilance and said, "In other words, you are here to protest against yesterday's incident?"

Hearing Lixia's words, Yuliel quickly denied it: "No, no, there is no such thing. I would like to thank you in return, it was so well done. ”

"......" Listening to Yuriyer's words, Lixia really didn't know what to say, she was a member of the army. Is that the right thing to say?

Facing Zheng Shuanglong and Lixia, who were completely confused about the situation and fell silent, Liyeer straightened her posture and said sincerely: "The purpose of coming here today is that I want to ask the two of you for something." ”

"Please, please......?" Lixia looked at each other in surprise, looking rather surprised.

In Lixia's opinion, Yuriel's words were so surprising.

The difference in the relationship between the army and the Void Brigade is basically known to all SAO players, although this relationship is not so bad that they draw their swords as soon as they meet, but it is not much better. Asking the members of the Void Brigade to help the army has never happened even in the most important thing like the boss of the Raider floor, let alone now.

You must know that Zheng Shuanglong, the commander of the Void Brigade, had made a death declaration to the Tooth King, one of the top echelons of the army.

Until now, the Tooth King was eager to kill Zheng Shuanglong. It's really weird to help members of the military.

Faced with Lixia's surprise, Yuriel swayed her silver hair and nodded, and the female swordsman of the army continued, "Yes, I'll start from the beginning. The name army has not been used since the past...... The transformation into an army, as ALF is now called, was created after the former vice-president, who is now the de facto ruler, took over the real power. The original name was Guild MTD...... Have you heard of it?"

Lixia had never heard of it, and Zheng Shuanglong didn't know much about it.

Looking at Zheng Shuanglong and Lixia, who seemed to be completely unaware of this famous organization, Yuliyeer continued with a somewhat ugly face: "MTD, short for 'MMOTODAY'. At the beginning of SAO, Japan's largest online game comprehensive intelligence station, the manager of the guild should be Sinka. ”

Yuriel's expression distorted slightly as she said the name.

"He's absolutely ...... It's not like trying to form an organization that is doing it alone. He just wants to distribute intelligence, food, and other resources equally to as many players as possible......"

Lixia had heard a little bit about this.

The ideals and disillusionment of the "army". There is nothing wrong with the idea of hunting monsters in large numbers to avoid crises as much as possible and to obtain a stable income to distribute evenly. But the essence of MMORPGs is a scramble for resources between players, even in a game like SAO, which is in an extremely abnormal situation. No, perhaps it should be said, it is precisely because of this that it is even more so.

So, in order to achieve this ideal, the scale that the organization actually has and a strong leader is indispensable. For this reason, the army is simply too large. Improper concealment, purging, and backlash continue to occur, and leaders are slowly losing their leadership.

"At this moment, it was the man named the Tooth King who came out." Yuriel said in an unhappy tone: "Under the pretext of Sinka's laissez-faire, he and his cadres and players proposed to strengthen the system and change the name of the guild to the Ayngrunt Liberation Army. This was followed by the promotion of the accepted policy of hunting criminals and efficient monopoly of practice areas. Up to that point, although he had observed the etiquette of the practice area in consideration of maintaining friendship with other guilds, he continued to monopolize the practice area for a long time with most violence, and in addition to increasing the income of the guild rapidly, the power of the Tooth King's faction gradually became stronger. Recently, Sinka has almost become an ornament...... The players of the Tooth King faction also got carried away, and even began to intimidate in the name of "taxation" in the neighborhood circle. Yesterday you were the first of those who were in the vanguard of that group. ”

Yuriel took a breath and continued after drinking the tea made by Sasha, "However, the Tooth King faction also has a weakness, that is, it only cares about increasing assets and continues to ignore the strategy game. This makes "It's putting the cart before the horse!" The sound continues to expand among the players at the end...... In order to suppress this dissatisfaction, the Tooth King recently made an unreasonable bet, selecting a dozen or so players with the highest level from among his subordinates to form a strategy team, and sending the front-line strategy leader. ”

Hearing this, Lixia couldn't help but look at Zheng Shuanglong. They still have some impressions of Kobaz, the player who belonged to the army who challenged the floor boss "Shining Eye" in the maze area of the seventy-fourth floor without any preparation, and finally died miserably.

When she learned that those guys were the Tooth King's subordinates, a look of shame appeared on Lixia's face. Lowering his head, he was embarrassed to look at Zheng Shuanglong.

The relationship between the Tooth King and Zheng Shuanglong is not so pleasant. This is known not only to the members of the Void Brigade, but also to the vast majority of players in SAO.

It turns out that these stupid guys are the subordinates of the Tooth King, and they knew that they would all die at the hands of [Shining Demon Eye] at that time, and they really did superfluous things. Zheng Shuanglong, who guaranteed such an idea, continued to listen to what Yu Liye said.

"Even if it's a high level, it's undeniable that we can't compare to the people in the Raiders group in the first place...... In the end, the worst result was the defeat of the team and the death of the captain, and the tooth king also incurred a correction because of his unscrupulous behavior. I almost could have banished him......" Yuriel furrowed her nose and bit her lip, "Three days ago, the desperate Tooth King resorted to a forcible strategy to frame Sinka. He used the cloister crystal whose exit was set in the depths of the labyrinth, and in turn banished Sinka. At that time, Sinka was unarmed because he believed in the Tooth King's words, "Let's disarm and talk about it." It is simply impossible to break through the monster horde from the deepest part of the labyrinth alone. I don't even think I even brought ...... transfer crystal."

"Three, ...... three days ago? That Sinkata? Lixia asked the question reflexively.

Yuriel nodded slightly in response, "His name is pretty good on the 'Monument of Life', so he should have successfully reached safety." It's just that the location is deep in a very high-level labyrinth, so there is no way to move...... As you know, there is no way to send messages inside the labyrinth, and there is no way to connect to the guild warehouse, so it is not possible to send the transfer crystal to him. ”

This large-scale method of killing people using cloister crystals that set the exit in the depths of a desperate situation is known as "Entrance P K", and of course Shinka knows about it. However, it may be that even if you look against each other, you are the vice president of the same guild, so you shouldn't be able to do this. Or rather, reluctantly to think so.

As if reading Lixia's thoughts, Yuriel whispered, "Others are just too good." After that, he continued: "The only people who can operate the Guild Master's Certificate [Agreed Scroll] are Xinka and the Tooth King. If Sinka never returns, the guild's personnel and accountants will completely fall into the hands of the Tooth King. Failing to prevent Sinka from falling into the trap is my responsibility as a deputy, and I must rescue him. But my level can't break through the labyrinth that imprisons him, and I can't count on the help of the Army's players. ”

Yu Liye bit her lip, looked directly at Zheng Shuanglong and Lixia, and pleaded: "At this time, I heard that there was a very strong duo in the town, and I have been feeling uneasy, so I came to ask you for help. Mr. Zheng Shuanglong, Miss Lixia. ”

Yuriel bowed her head deeply and said, "You may think that it is too cheeky to make such a request just after we met. But please, please come with me to save Sinka. ”

Hearing this, Zheng Shuanglong nodded as if understanding: "I see, it's because of the action against the Tooth King, that's why you came to us generously." As long as you rescue that Xinka, you can fight the Tooth King, which is a little interesting. ”

Zheng Shuanglong did not say agree or disagree, and so did Lixia. The kind-hearted Lixia really has a heart to help others, but although she is sad, she can't easily believe what others say in SAO. What I heard this time may be true, but it may also be a conspiracy to lure Zheng Shuanglong and Lixia to persecute them outside the circle.

Often, with sufficient knowledge of the game, it is possible to find flaws in the words of the scammers. But it's a pity that Lixia and the others are too ignorant of the inside story of the "army".

Lixia didn't care much about the guild's actions, while Zheng Shuanglong didn't care about the scum guild like the army at all.

Finding that Zheng Shuanglong didn't have any intention at all, Lixia also fell into hesitation, and Liye lowered her head slightly and pleaded: "I also know that this is a very unreasonable request...... However, the thought that Xinka's name on the Black Iron Palace's 'Monument of Life' could be engraved with a horizontal line at any time made me feel like crazy......"

Seeing the silver-haired whip that made Yuriel's strong eyes glow with tears, Lixia's heart couldn't help but waver, and she felt even more painful to believe her. But at the same time, the experience of living in this world for the past two years is sounding the alarm to tell me that it is dangerous to act because of sentimentality.

The most important thing is that Zheng Shuanglong has not expressed his position. That's the most important thing. Lixia has always been centered on Zheng Shuanglong.

Even if she wanted to help Liye again, if Zheng Shuanglong vetoed it, Lixia would not take any action.

Zheng Shuanglong is Lixia's sky, Zheng Shuanglong is everything to Lixia, in Lixia's heart, changing her dark fate, pulling herself out of the dark life, and letting yourself see the light Zheng Shuanglong is the most important. (To be continued.) )
