(It's been a bit of a Kavin these days, and I'm sorry that the update has slowed down.) But I still thank more and more book friends for their tips. Because there are a lot of people who are rewarding, some names can't be found, so I won't thank them one by one, anyway, I'll keep it in mind, because there will be your names on the fan list! ）

The second main district of Al Ayn Grant, Ulbas, is like a small town built inside the mountains. Since the boss of the first floor disappeared for no reason, the strategy team composed of dozens of players marched all the way to the town and successfully arrived at the town to open the portal, and the place suddenly became lively, and enthusiastic players can be seen everywhere.

Of course, although the breakthrough of the first layer is not worth mentioning for Ayn Grant, it is a small hope for players.

More and more players rushed to the front line with weapons in hand, and I didn't dare to say how much they could help the strategy process, but at least Ling Yi's original purpose was achieved.

And he himself can finally rest well, and then go to complete Argo's commission.

A few days ago, Ling Yi really couldn't find an excuse to excuse himself after the commission in exchange for two pieces of information, not to mention that after solving the first layer of the boss, now more and more players are beginning to discuss the 'boss disappearance'. Of course, this is just a description, everyone knows that the boss can't leave the room on his own, so it must be some mysterious team of players who defeated the boss.

It is worth mentioning that in terms of the number of players, almost all players think that it is 'at least a dozen Jishu superb closed beta players', because they have a lot of combat experience, so they can successfully defeat the boss even when the number is at a disadvantage.

However, no one knows the whereabouts of this mysterious team, some people say that they are busy attacking the second layer of the boss, and some people also say that although they defeated the first layer of the boss, they sacrificed too much and have been forced to disband.

The news goes on and on.

But this didn't affect Ling Yi's life, with his low-key style, I believe no one except Argo would know that he killed the boss.

Even the guy who bought the information from Argo would never have imagined that the strength of the 'Death Sword Spirit' would improve so quickly that he could even take on the boss alone.

Under this kind of conventional thinking, Ling Yi's life was quite comfortable, and no one came to trouble him at all

No, it's not that there aren't troubles.

It's just that Ling Yi doesn't know if it's troublesome, from common sense, it should be a good thing if a sister paper comes to the door, but he feels uncomfortable here.

It all started a few days ago, when he had just finished Argo's commission, a task to hide his skills, and was in a good mood back on the block.

"Don't be kidding!"

The sudden commotion made Ling Yi stop and look at him suspiciously.

In front of the street was a wide square, from which the commotion was heard.

"Restoration! Restore me! Enhancement +4, return my enhancement +4! ”

The anxious and angry roar made Ling Yi understand the current situation slightly, and it seemed that it was a conflict between a certain forger and the player.

Even though this is the central plaza of Ulbas, the main block on the second floor of Ayn Grant, the 'Crime Prevention Circle', neither player can inflict actual damage on the other.

Even so, Ling Yi still found a hidden position to watch the riots, although he was not a person who liked to watch the excitement, but he was rarely in a good mood, and completing the hidden task allowed him to substantially increase his strength.

Thursday, December 8, 2022, the thirty-second day of the Game of Death Sword Art Online Open Beta.

Five days have passed since the boss on the first floor was defeated and the portal to Ulbas was opened.

A self-proclaimed knight Tilberu first-tier strategy meeting,With excellent leadership temperament to conquer many people,Although the boss was not defeated in the end,But it retained the original tradition - a strategy meeting was held in the square at three o'clock in the afternoon.,There will be a lot of players to participate.。

However, it was not yet three o'clock, otherwise Ling Yi would have to squeeze into the crowd to watch the excitement.

"For weishenme will be like this! weishenme enhancement will fall so much! ”

The man's face turned red, as if blood was surging, and he kept slamming the tip of his sword into the stone floor as he yelled.

"Weishenme has failed four times in a row! Enhancement +0 is too much, so it's better to leave it to NPCs! Take responsibility for me, bastard forger! ”

The male player, who insisted on ten minutes of scolding, had to put on a troubled but helpless expression.

In one corner of the square is a gray blanket, and in the narrow space above it are chairs and anvils, which are the most rudimentary of forges. However, this kind of simple player shop is very common around the neighborhood and is also a must-have for traveling merchants.

Of course, you can buy and sell items on the street without selling them, but if you have them in your place, your durability will be reduced, and you must always be vigilant to prevent theft.

In other words, operating without a license.

Merchants on the main block on each floor have placed all kinds of carpets and opened shops, but after the official server beta of the death game, it is rare to see anyone open a store.

Seeing this, Ling Yi almost understood the reason for the matter.

The man had entrusted the weapon to the forger to strengthen it, but the forger failed one after another, causing his weapon to be almost scrapped.

Ling Yi was quite surprised by this, because in general, the success rate of players at the same level of forging is much higher than that of NPCs. Unless the proficiency of the forging skill is horribly low. However, the props required by the production skills, such as the forging props of the hammer or something, are impossible to equip if you are not proficient enough, and the setting of this game is so subtle. And that smith has much better equipment than the forging equipment of those nearby NPCs.

In other words, this blacksmith's jishu is almost the most haode here, and the success rate is relatively highest.

- Unfortunately, even if you have a high level of proficiency in Sword Art Online, the success rate of weapon enhancement will not reach 100%.

Even if the probability of failure is 30%, the probability of two consecutive failures is 9 percent, the probability of three consecutive defeats is 3 percent, and the probability of four consecutive defeats in tragedy is 0.8 percent.

What is surprising is that in the online game Shijie, this level of probability is a 'tragedy', enough to make people angry and delete the game. Ling Yi was secretly glad that he hadn't entrusted the weapon to that person to strengthen it, otherwise he would definitely be unlucky.

"What's going on, such a commotion?"

At this time, such a whisper came from the side.

A very familiar voice, Ling Yi would never hear it wrong. It should be said that it was a coincidence or fate to meet her here, but it doesn't matter if you know each other and say hello.

Thinking so, he turned his head to look, and then his expression froze.

White leather tunic and pale green leather leggings. The chest is equipped with light armor. The iconic rapier was still worn at his waist, but the original rustic cloak was gone, revealing its original appearance, not to mention the long chestnut hair and snow-white skin that poured down like a waterfall, which was enough to make every young man stop and admire.

For a moment, Ling Yi wavered in his judgment.

However, he immediately put this idea aside, because the style of the rapier and the voice would never be mistaken.

As for the hidden beauty, it can only be said that it is unexpected.

Ling Yi's cheeks twitched, he quickly regained his composure, and replied in a very casual tone: "It seems to have been produced by that triangle man's strengthened sword."

His answer was like that of a well-meaning passerby.

After all, Ling Yi didn't think that the other party could recognize him, because after reaching the second layer, he had also learned the 'stunt' of the Rapier - cloak disguise, and his dark cloak was like an intelligence dealer walking in the streets and alleys.

Even Argo doesn't necessarily recognize him.

As for the Rapier who has only met a few times and doesn't even know his name, it's even more impossible.

And he deliberately lowered his voice, making him look deeper and hoarse than before.

But-

"So, that huh? Have we seen this before? ”

Asuna frowned, staring suspiciously at the cloaked man next to her, her penetrating gaze seeming to be able to see through the cloak and see under the cloak.

"No, though I would love to admit it, I have no impression in my poor and fleeting memory, especially a beautiful young lady like you, and I can only lament with regret." Ling Yi's expression under the cloak stiffened again, although he didn't know where the flaws were exposed, but this person had seen himself appear at the door of the boss room, and if it was exposed, it would cause big trouble, so he pretended to be unhurried and said.

Hopefully, with this deliberately attention-grabbing dandy-like tone, the Blademaker's suspicions can be dispelled.

However, what made Ling Yi more and more puzzled was that this girl who seemed to be reborn narrowed her eyes and said, "Excuse me, can you take off your cloak?" I'd like to make sure you're the friend I know, and if not, I'd like to use the +4 enhanced WindFleuret (her official game name for the Rapier) as your compensation. ”
