Chapter 69: The Siege (9)

The sound suddenly rose, and the two of Shirokumar and the cardinal system suddenly disappeared in front of Asuna, although the sound of impact echoed in the air from time to time, Asuna could not see the figure of the two fighting, as if she had escaped into another time and space.

Asuna's mouth couldn't help but have a trace of bitterness, but it was only a short time gone, but Hirokuma's strength was even stronger.

Exhaling deeply, his gaze turned to the very young-looking young man in front of him, Akihiko Kayaba, who was looking at the sky, his gaze chasing the cardinal system that had disappeared.

"Commander... No, Akihiko Ikeba..."

Asuna took a breath and stood up from the ground, after being shocked by these events, Asuna's legs were still a little soft at the moment, but at this moment Asuna was staring straight at Akihiko Kayaba, it was this person who trapped 10,000 players in this world, and it was this person who murdered thousands of players......

"I really didn't expect that you would be Akihiko Kayaba who has been leading us all along..."

With grief, Asuna could almost imagine how the players would react now, if nothing else, that is, the members of the Blood Alliance Knights Guild who were still alive almost overturned the guild chat after learning the news.

The speed of news in the game is quite fast, and although there is no public chat system, a single message between players and players is enough to spread the news of Akihiko Kayaba's appearance.

"Ah, that's right."

After Kayaba Jinghiko appeared from the cardinal system, he collected his gaffe, he just looked at Asuna lightly, and then looked around at the players who were looking at him in disbelief not far away, and then turned into hateful eyes, with a look in his eyes, with a trace of nostalgia, a trace of unwillingness, a trace of incomprehension... After the last moment, all the emotions were kneaded into a kind of confusion.

"Originally, my script was supposed to be for me as the strongest player, waiting for you as the boss of the hundredth floor, but now it looks like I'm going to leave early."

His voice was a little hoarse, and his calm expression was as calm and even indifferent as if he had been appearing on TV and in the newspapers, and he whispered to Asuna, "No matter what, I've had a lot of fun these days." ”

Bite!

Asuna's sword light was blocked by a pale blue force field, and no matter how hard Asuna tried it, she couldn't penetrate the seemingly almost thick force field, inflicting damage on Kayaba Akihiko.

"Excellent, Asuna."

There was no accident with Asuna's sword, and Akihiko Kayaba, who understood that he could not recover the fact that he was about to die, suddenly saw through it, stretched out his hand, and touched the body of Asuna's thin sword.

With a calm smile, Akihiko Kayaba looked up and seemed to be able to see the situation in the invisible battlefield.

"Asuna, get ready, you are about to face a more brutal test than I designed it to be. Starting today, you will lead the Knights of the Blood Pact down. ”

Even if there is no statement about the state of affairs given by the cardinal system, Akihiko Kayaba can understand what the cardinal is fighting against, and the cardinal system seems to have been cornered, otherwise, just an NPC would not be able to shake the game's highest existence.

What to call another force?

Virus?

Hack?

But at this moment, Kayaba Jinghiko didn't have the heart to think about these issues, he just smiled, his eyes were full of a kind of doting, doting on this world. The world was born in his hands, although it was a little crooked, but it did grow, but he could no longer see the future.

It's a bit of a shame to think about it, if that's the case.

"I'll give you a present, Asuna."

Leave a seed for this distorted world, Kayaba Akihiko waved his hand, a white window popped up, and after a few random clicks on it, a crisp tone sounded in Asuna's ears.

"Akihiko Kayaba, what the hell is your purpose!!"

Asuna didn't care what the prompt in her ears meant for the time being, she just frowned and looked at Kayaba Akihiko, this person was so changeable, and it didn't seem to have any trust at all.

"For my dreams, but it doesn't matter anymore..."

Looking at his stubbornly flickering blood, Kayaba Jinghiko turned his head to look at the Heavenly Swordsman who had been waiting quietly in the void with a flat look after disappearing from the Shirokuma and Cardinal systems.

"What is your purpose for you?"

Lifting his eyelids, he retracted his gaze, looked at Kayaba Jinghiko, and grinned, "Of course, it is to turn this world back to the right trajectory." ”

"Your appearance is what really distorts the trajectory of this world."

Inexplicably, Aoba Jinghiko was surging with anger in his heart, what did this person in front of him say, this world realm should have moved forward according to the trajectory he designed, but it was invaded that led to the emergence of this group of strange NPCs, and it was rare to break into someone else's house so justifiably.

"The princess has already said that this world is our world world, and you are all just a group of invaders."

The Heavenly Swordsman restrained his smile, with a solemn look on his face, mentioning that Shirokuma's words were indeed respectful, he said lightly, "Is there anything wrong with expelling the invaders from the city?" ”

"What we do is our righteousness."

"This justice will not allow anyone to be defiled."

Asuna was silent, what the other party said was right, but if it wasn't for Akihiko Kayaba, who would want to stay in this world where life and death are not born, and who would be idle to care about NPC affairs?

So the source of everything, is it still this Ikeba Akihiko? But......

"I don't remember what we players have done to infringe on the interests of your NPCs..."

As the front-line strategy group, and as the deputy head of the Blood Alliance Knights, Asuna does not know much about the things below, but she also knows the truth roughly. Nowadays, players are completely focused on the strategy, and the NPCs are naturally systematically protected, which is simply not something they can shake.

"It's just not right now..."

Smiling mysteriously, without answering again, the Heavenly Swordsman turned his gaze back to the void and said, "The battle between the princess and her looks like it's over. ”

A figure appeared silently in the center, but Shirokumar's posture was a little embarrassed, and only two of the five long swords that were originally suspended behind him were left at the moment, and they still looked a little broken, and the white-green combat uniform he changed into was also slightly tattered, and from time to time some ** faintly revealed from it.

The Heavenly Swordsman stepped forward, with a hint of joy on his face, since the princess appeared, it means that the system has been eliminated.

Kayaba Akihiko waited for a while, but did not wait for another figure to appear, even he felt a pang of sadness.

Suddenly, a burst of white light appeared on his body, and Kayaba Jinghiko's blood volume was instantly emptied after losing the power of the system, which also meant that his life was about to pass away.

There were no words, no questions, and everyone watched as Akihiko Kayaba's body turned into pieces, scattered around the world in a way that was no different from other players, with cheap special effects.
