"You can call me the referee, or you can just call me by my name - Akihiko Kayaba."

The sky above Kassel was no longer a clear sky, but a bright red checkerboard-like pattern that spread to the horizon, and then the middle part of the red pattern covering the sky slowly dripped down like a rather viscous drop of blood.

But instead of dripping to the ground, the blood changed shape in mid-air.

Appearing there was a giant nearly twenty meters tall and wearing a crimson cloak.

No, that's a bit incorrect.

Because Caesar and the others were standing directly below that position, and looking up from their vantage point, they should be able to see the face in the hat that was pulled very low—but there was no face in that area.

There is a hollow underneath the hat, and you can even see the inside of the hat and the stitching on the edges.

And inside the long hem of the cloak, there was also a slight darkness.

The six below have different performances.

Caesar became alert for a moment, and the door straightened up and took two steps forward, only to realize that he seemed to be much weaker than his own president, and in this case, rushing forward was just delivering food.

However, if you don't put it in front at this time, will you be wearing small shoes later?

Mr. Doorboard, who has an upright temperament, is in a tangle.

Caesar didn't notice the movement of the gate, no, not so much not paying attention, but simply ignoring it, after all, the second middle school boy only had enemies and opponents in his eyes.

Friends and henchmen?

It is enough to give them wise leadership.

Now that Caesar's attention was focused on the red cloak in the sky, he naturally had no energy for anything else.

His mind is now full of all kinds of question marks:

What is this? Some kind of undiscovered spirit?

This person is behind this? Is he a man or a dragon?

Why didn't Norma give an invasion warning?

Where have the professors gone?

Why is the academy so quiet? Could it be that the Student Council, Lionheart, and other students were wiped out?

……

Caesar's mind was racing, but he didn't notice the expressions of the others.

Chu Zihang's eyes were strange, he had guessed the initiator of this farce from the beginning, after all, such a big stroke, even if it was put into a pure-blooded dragon, it could only be achieved by the first generation.

And when it falls on the Kassel Academy, only Gu Bei can do this kind of thing.

Especially after "the color of the world changed" and "the referee appeared", Chu Zihang was even more sure that all this must have been done by Gu Bei, after all, this kind of pretending to be a ghost is too Gu Bei's style, but ......

Didn't you say when you entered school that you should keep a low profile?

Is this a cover-up?

Is this low-key?

Chu Zihang didn't know where to start complaining for a while.

If Gu Bei could hear Chu Zihang's heart now, he would probably answer confidently: "I didn't show my face again, how do they know who I am?"

Thinking of Gu Bei's sworn appearance, the corners of Chu Zihang's mouth couldn't help twitching, and he began to reflect on whether he should take Gu Bei to cure his brain. ….

Although Susie, who was standing behind Chu Zihang, was not clear about the situation, she was good at observing words and feelings, and she more or less felt that something was not right with Chu Zihang's state, and it seemed that she was ...... I'm familiar with what that guy in the sky looks like.

Looking at Chu Zihang's somewhat shaky shoulders, he thought of someone Chu Zihang was more familiar with in the academy......

Susie felt like she had guessed the truth.

As hard as Chu Zihang, there is also Fingal, who is standing with Nuonuo, but what he cares about is not that Gu Bei is acting too high-profile, but ......

It's too middle two.

As one of the few dead otaku in the mixed-race group who is not good at socializing and "can't do anything", Fingal is quite familiar with Gu Bei's appearance

The image in front of me overlapped with the memory in my mind, and the name almost had to be blurted out.

Sure enough, the right sleeve of the cloak suddenly moved.

From the enlarged cuffs, you can see the pure white gloves, but the sleeves and gloves are obviously separated from each other, and there is no ** part to be seen at all.

Then the left sleeve was slowly raised.

On the heads of the six players, the empty white gloves spread to the left and right, and it felt like the Faceless Man was opening his mouth, and immediately a man's low, clear voice came from far above.

"Congratulations to all of you for clearing the first round of the game, the next game will be hosted by me, you can call me the referee, or you can call me by my name......

"Akihiko Kayaba!"

The voice of the red cloak was cut off by a person halfway, and what was even more unexpected was that this person seemed to know the name of the cloaked man, and opened his mouth to say it directly.

The crowd followed the sound and looked over, and found Fingal, who looked like a reservoir dog, not far from Nono.

That's right, Gu Beixian's is the final boss of the anime "Sword Art Online", the creator of the death game SAO, the man who created these and further developed the virtual world, realizing the dream of mankind.

Genius programmer - Akihiko Kayaba.

Although in the anime, genius is basically something that can be mass-produced, in the past, there was Saiki Kusuke, who relied on technology to tease his superpower brother, and then there was Ishigami Chiku, who made rockets empty-handed in the Wild Era, and Dr. Tenma, who made Astro Boy, and under which there was Aralei, who likes to play shit but can crack the earth, and then there is Senbei.

It can be said that genius is a very worthless thing.

But although Akihiko Kayaba is the boss, he is the most shining of these geniuses.

After all, he used his own hands to fulfill his dream, and at the same time, he also created something that was almost a divine skill, such as the World Seed.

In all respects, the only scientists who can really be as famous as Akihiko Kayaba are Rentaro Okabe, who has jumped countless worlds just for you, and Grandpa Rick, who has lost my love and is worse than death.

Therefore, in terms of popularity, Akihiko Kayaba may be higher than the protagonist of some unpopular works.

It is inevitable that Fingal, a first-class otaku in Kassel, will be recognized.

However, just because Fingal knows it doesn't mean that other people know it, such as a student council president who until now thought that the academy had been invaded by the dragon king.

Akihiko Kayaba? Who's that? Is that the name of that guy in the sky? Did Fingal know him? Is there a dragon king called Akihiko Kayaba? ….

Caesar squinted, the hole was faintly golden, his bloodline was roaring, he was trying to urge the spirit to break through the precepts, if this guy in the sky was indeed the dragon king, at least he had the power to hurt the other side.

Anyway, why hasn't the Night's Watch shown up until now?

It was clear that the Commandments were still working, which meant that the Night's Watch was not being attacked, but neither Norma, nor the professors, nor the various departments of the school seemed to react.

Even the equipment department, which is usually the most lively, has no movement.

Caesar couldn't think of any reason but to take one step at a time.

Meanwhile, in the academy's bell tower, a man dressed in a cowboy costume was sitting in a dimly lit room, carrying a bottle of Johnnie Walker, but the bottle was empty, and there was not a drop of wine.

But the cowboy didn't care, his eyes weren't at all misty as if he had just drunk a bottle of high-strength whiskey, but shimmered brightly.

The images on the projector in front of the old cowboy, which was originally used to watch various Westerns and action movies, are also very different from those of the past, and now the scene on the screen is the scene from the fountain square in the center of the college.

The red-cloaked man flicked his sleeves, and then a dragon of water rolled up in the pool under the fountain and slammed it into Fingal's face.

The scene was like a special effects blockbuster, very spectacular, but the old cowboy's attention was not on it at all, he just looked ahead, but lost focus between his eyes, and muttered to himself

He said, "I see, I can do this......

It seems that Mr. Night's Watch will not be able to properly protect the Academy while Ange is away.

On the other side, Gu Bei looked at Fingal, who was washed by the water dragon, and his heart was secretly refreshed.

This is the end of interrupting someone Gu to pretend.

Gu Bei sorted out his lines and continued: "I'm not a dragon, I'm just a gamer with interest, when the freedom is over, it will naturally not appear again, of course, you can also try to find my traces in Kassel...... If you think you can find me."

As he spoke, Gu Bei also glanced at Caesar, who was covered in black under his hat, as if he was about to suck Caesar in.

Caesar quickly looked away, he felt that Akihiko Kayaba's words had a potential meaning, but the current situation did not allow him to think too much, and he heard a crisp sound in the sky.

Akihiko Kayaba snapped her fingers.

There have been some wonderful changes in the field.

The weeding machine that Chu Zihang and the two were riding disappeared.

The water on Nono and Fingal's bodies was peeled off in an instant, and then quickly evaporated, and the two of them suddenly returned to a dry state.

Caesar and the Gate...... Nothing has changed.

This is not over, after a series of changes ended, a dazzling light suddenly erupted from the bodies of several people, and with the fading of the light, some changes appeared in the six people in the square.

It was a basically identical outfit, like a rebellious kid playing spray painting on the street, the only difference was the color.

Caesar and the gate player behind him were bright yellow, with the golden hair, and the majestic golden child's hole, like a lion rising from the ground. ….

Nono and Fingal's clothes are red, like a burning flame, whether you should say it or not, it is a good match for the little witch.

Chu Zihang and Susie's are blue, but if the color of Caesar and Nuno's clothing is because of their hair color, Chu Zihang's hair doesn't seem to be blue, and neither is Susie.

However, there is one thing to say, Chu Zihang and this blue body are quite compatible, and when he wears this clothes, he is a moving iceberg.

And it wasn't just the costumes that were changed, but several people quickly noticed other changes.

The weapon in each of their hands was gone, replaced by a ...... of the same color as their clothes Gun?

If this kind of thing with a small head and a big body that looks like a water gun can also be called a gun.

"Now let me explain the rules of the game."

A deep male voice in the sky grabbed everyone's attention.

"First, don't be discouraged...... Ahem, I'm sorry, I'm on the stage."

Gu Bei didn't have the slightest embarrassment of saying the wrong lines, he took out a piece of paper from his pocket and said according to the script: "There are six of you, two people in a group, divided into three groups, and the rules of the game are very simple."

"The central square in Kassel covers an area of about 100,000 square meters, but we don't need that much, we only need the central 10,000 square meters, and the three of you teams will compete within this 10,000 square meters, using your spray guns to dye the ground the same color as your clothes, and the time limit is twenty minutes."

"The team that paints the most area or occupies the most area within the time limit wins."

Speaking of this, a chuckle suddenly came from under the red cloak: "Of course, it is allowed to attack each other during the game, and it is also allowed to bully more and less, and I, as the referee, will only be responsible for judging the outcome of the game, and I will only interfere with your game form."

"The Spray Gun has the same damage as a normal gun, but don't worry, the player hit by the Spray Gun will only produce synaesthesia, and the one who teleports back to the team will not actually die, so the fight is perfectly fine."

"One more thing, while each of you may seem to be very similar, each of you is actually equipped with different skills, and if used well, you may be able to use your words

It's the same thing."

"So next, the game...... Can't start yet."

Originally, the momentum was violent, and the six people who had already prepared fell at the same time, and even Chu Zihang looked at the sky with a puzzled look, not knowing what Gu Bei was going to do.

But he soon learned,

The central square of Kassel covers an area of 100,000 square meters, and their game range is only 10,000 square meters in the very center, so the remaining area will not be empty.

It's fun, of course, everyone has to watch it together.

Gu Bei clapped his hands: "Next, please invite our audience friends to sit down."

As soon as Gu Bei's voice fell, the surrounding scene suddenly changed, and the originally flat square ground was raised layer by layer, and it actually turned into a circle of audience seats.

Four huge curtains appeared in the sky, rushing towards the auditorium in four directions, and the picture on the curtain was the state of the six people in the center of the square.

Immediately afterward, the red patterned checkerboard in mid-air was flipped over one after another, and then one figure after another fell out of it and landed on the audience one after another.

True people fall like rain.

Take a closer look, aren't these the students who were eliminated before, the four members of the Lionheart Club who were in the same action team as Chu Zihang, as well as the new minister of the student union and the dragon man who made Caesar speechless, and some other members, all appeared in the audience.

Not only students, but also professors.

The bald-headed Manstein, the off-line Guderian, the wheelchair-bound Schneider, and even the hot-eyed cowboy of the West – the vice-chancellor of the night watch.

The scene suddenly became lively, some people were cheering for Caesar, some people were waving their flags and shouting for Chu Zihang, and some people were whistling at Nuno and Susie......

What about security? Security come here!

Get the whistling fork out!

Why are there still banana peels thrown on their bodies!?

Oh, the one who threw Fingal.

Gu Bei looked at the six people in the center of the square, and said in a brisk tone: "Are you ready? Well, you don't have to answer, whether you're ready or not, the game begins!"

Fat oranges that can't get enough to eat
