Chapter 5 The Disappearing Logout Key
"Location: Ayn Grant Level 1."
"Time: The first day of the official operation of the virtual reality online game SAO."
"It's a game, but it's not a joke.
- Designer of 'SwordArtOnline'. Akihiko Kayaba
The world's first fully stealth game 'SwordArtOnline' has been released.
People who were about to experience the game's first official operation found that the 'log out' command disappeared shortly after logging in.
At the same time, the person who claimed to be the designer of the SAO game, 'Akihiko Kayaba', began to explain lightly that he could not leave the game without completing the strategy.
The only way to get out of this world is to defeat the boss on the 100th floor of the top floor of 'Ayn Grant' - and complete the 'Complete Raid'.
In addition, if you try to take off the NERvGear during the in-game GAMEOVER, the player will immediately be killed by the high-frequency microwaves emitted by the NERvGear.
Only those who accept this paradoxical fact can survive. ”
……
……
The crisp breeze blows across your cheeks, a feeling you would never feel in a steel jungle city.
Although it is only a virtual world, the enjoyment of the senses has reached 100%, almost a real world.
This is the world's first completely virtual online game - SwordArt Online.
Not only people who like games, because of this beautiful environment, some retired elderly people at home, or people who want to relax, will also choose to enter this world and enjoy the kind of tranquility that can never be felt in the city.
On the first day of the game's launch, perhaps no one thought that it would turn into a tragedy, right?
Standing on the edge of the river, Luo Yuan opened his eyes. Looking at the beautiful environment in front of me, I loved it for a while.
However, he has experienced a lot of the world, and such a beautiful environment is not unprecedented, and he is not as intoxicated as the kind of person who lives in the city.
Wearing a black trench coat, because the design refers to Kirito's clothes and Virgil's, it naturally looks extremely handsome.
Such clothes, on the first day of the game, everyone is still wearing novice equipment, which is naturally very conspicuous.
"It's a good thing they didn't throw me in a crowded place."
If that's the case, face the doubts of many players. He said he was going to pretend to be an NPC.
Smiling, Luo Yuan took off his clothes, opened SAO's system interface, and changed himself into novice equipment.
After changing clothes, Luo Yuan glanced around, and was not in a hurry to find the protagonist or start training.
Took out a fishing rod from the space of the game machine, sat on the grass, and threw the fishing line into the river, Luo Yuan quietly waited for Akihiko Kayaba's call.
Anyway, on the first day. No matter where you go, you will eventually be gathered by Akihiko Kayaba to the square where you started.
It's not too late to wait until the Form 2 guy finishes talking before starting training.
'Lord Yin, I helped you suppress the power in your body, after you entered SAO. In addition to the various ordinary skills, the other qiē is an ordinary person, so that the best effect can be achieved, and the suppression can be lifted step by step. By the time the Lord Silver regains the apostle's high rank, he will definitely be able to completely control this power. ’
Recalling the words of the artificial intelligence in his mind, Luo Yuan moved his body with some suspicion. I found that the energy in my body was indeed gone.
However, he had a feeling that if he needed to restore that kind of power, he only needed to force it open.
The game machine has iron rules, and it is impossible to suppress the host Luo Yuan in any form.
Therefore, even if it is for Luo Yuan's good and suppresses the power on its body, as long as Luo Yuan wants to, he can still recover his strength at any time.
Of course, he wouldn't do that.
Anyway, Cheng dù, who uses his sword of 'reason', can already be vertical and horizontal in this game that respects swordsmanship.
Just like Yiyi said, slowly start to master the power.
Closing his eyes and enjoying the breeze around him, Luo Yuan lay on his back on the slope grass, holding a fishing rod in his hand, quietly waiting for the fish to take the bait.
This should be a relatively quiet place, but because it is still relatively close to the city, it is often walked by players.
Luo Yuan didn't care, still lying on his back on the grass, enjoying the rare afternoon time.
Seeing his appearance, the pedestrians also smiled slightly, feeling that their mood had become much more cheerful, and even two like-minded colleagues also came to Luo Yuan's side, threw out the fishing rod, and fished with him.
For these people, Luo Yuan naturally ignored them.
With his eyes closed, his breathing was steady, as if he was asleep, but whenever a fish bites, he always pulls up the rod at the first moment and puts the fish he catches into the bucket aside.
This perfect control, after receiving Virgil's power, he has not felt it.
Now that his strength has been suppressed, Luo Yuan feels a lot more relaxed.
"Little brother, good skills!"
The two uncles who were traveling next to him saw Luo Yuan's eyes light up.
They are also fishing enthusiasts, how can they not know the difficulty of this practice.
It is already extremely rare to be able to take the fish hook out of the fish's mouth without using his hands, and Luo Yuan also put the fish into the small bucket next to him impartially, and this qiē was done with his eyes closed!
This kind of skill, not to mention these enthusiasts, even those fishing masters can't do it, right?
Opening his eyes, Luo Yuan saw the two uncles next to him and smiled at them.
It's not bad to have two colleagues chatting in the afternoon.
No longer closing his eyes, Luo Yuan and the two uncles who like fishing began to chat.
Most of what he said was fishing knowledge, and Luo Yuan, who got fishing skills from Connor, also knew a lot about this aspect, so he naturally wouldn't be embarrassed.
Between the side knocks and clicks, Luo Yuan got some information about the real world outside the game from their conversation.
In 2022, some things are still slightly different from 2014 where Luo Yuan is located.
Of course, the difference is not much.
An afternoon passed quickly.
"Little brother, we really found a confidant this time."
sighed, the uncle in front of him and the other uncle next to him looked at each other and laughed.
These two uncles, who have known each other in reality, are also fishing friends, and they entered SAO together, and they also came to relax.
"But it's not too early, the old woman in the family is going to nag again, so let's go first."
Waving goodbye, the two uncles put away the fishing tackle and opened the system settings according to the method of the manual.
"Ah, goodbye."
With a smile on his face, he said this, but Luo Yuan's eyes looked at the two people in front of him without blinking.
If nothing else, the logout button must have disappeared, right?
At this time, those players outside should probably be aware of this situation.
"Hmm...... Hey? ”
Sure enough, it didn't take long for the uncle in front of him to let out a sound of surprise.
"No, am I mistaken?"
As he spoke, the uncle turned to the other uncle and asked, "Old man, where is the logout button?" ”
"Are you so confused that you can't even read the manual?" The other uncle said with a smile, pointing to the system panel in front of him: "Isn't it behind here...... Hey?? ”
The smile on his face disappeared in an instant, replaced by confusion.
The place where it was supposed to be the logout button was now empty, nothing.
"How so?!"
"Is it a bug?"
"No...... Don't have a logout button?! ”
"What should I do, Xiaoxie is still waiting for me to go back to eat."
"Calm down, there should be a notice soon......"
At the same time, one after another exclamations rang out all around.
Some are calm, some are confused, some are surprised, and some are depressed.
All kinds of emotions are stored in zài, but without exception, there is no zài panicked look on the faces of the players.
Because until now, they only thought it was a mistake, a bug, which would be solved soon, and no one would think in any other direction.
But Luo Yuan knew that this was not a so-called BUG, but a conspiracy that had been designed a long time ago.
The real game, it's officially started! (To be continued......)
