Chapter 600: Enter the Labyrinth Zone

The small episode of the invasion of the "Bull Clan" did not affect Ling Ze's plan, and the group left the "Outpost Village" and continued to move towards the Labyrinth Tower, which was already not far away.

The periphery of the labyrinth area is full of some very common monsters, and there are not even many "subordinate bulls and attackers".

"In fact, the bulls live in the labyrinth area, and they are the owners of the second floor of this tower, and they should be able to see more of them when they get to the second floor of the maze area."

Kirito opened his mouth to explain, the words were a little winding, in the maze area of each layer, it was also divided into many layers, and the bull clan lived on the second floor of the second layer of the maze area.

The group quickly came to the entrance of the labyrinth area, and Kirito's sealing experience played a big role here.

"There are a lot of treasure chests in the labyrinth area, and eighty percent of the location of the treasure chests in the early stage should be the same as during the closed beta, so we should be able to find a lot of treasure chests."

Kirito's words made Klein very excited, and at the same time, he also had a better understanding of the advantages of closed beta players.

If it wasn't them who came to the maze area first, but someone else, and there were closed beta players on the opposing team, then by the time they arrived, they would probably only see empty boxes.

"Thinking about it this way, the players who came in after us are probably going to be angry, Diabel doesn't know if he will regret it, hehehe~~~"

Klein said with a smile, he felt that Diabel should regret not only the treasure chest, but also the "black hair Wagyu cow", the cow burst out of a "cowhide shield", the value is very good, more than one grade stronger than the shield Jerome was equipped before, this is really too big for a team, after all, an excellent "tank" is the cornerstone of a team.

"I don't know if he will regret it, but he will definitely spray the blood of the dog we scolded, and he will speed up to chase after him."

Ling Ze complained, but anyone who thought about it knew how annoyed Diabel would be when he was given a head start.

But there is no way, Diabel's choice is actually not a mistake, and it can even be regarded as an old and serious move, but when it comes to these unreasonable of them, there is really no way at all, so I can only admit it.

A few people talked and laughed, fighting monsters along the way and opening treasure chests, which was called a pleasant, not like a boss but like a tour.

"Wow! Gear out! ”

In a small room on the first floor, after destroying a team of monsters, Klein, who went to touch the treasure chest, shouted exaggeratedly.

"It's called a strong belt underwear, and it's so good! It looks like magic equipment, with special bonuses! ”

Klein took out the "Power Belt Underwear", and he was clearly surprised by the attributes of the equipment.

Ling Ze looked over, compared to leather armor, the defense of this equipment is not bad, and it also has a rare strength bonus, but this equipment is quite special, just like its name, after the equipment is up, the upper body will be fixed to "only use the belt to tie the ** state everywhere", it is impossible to wear other tights or armor at all, and the inner word of "strong belt underwear" can be removed.

"Forehead ......"

Asuna immediately raised her forehead, this dress is really a little blind, what is the difference between wearing this and those minotaurs?

"How? Anyone wants it? No one asked me to put it on first. ”

Unlike Asuna, who thinks she has no eyes, Klein seems to be quite interested, and Kirito is actually a little excited, after all, for a veteran gamer like him, there is no comparison between "good-looking" and "easy-to-use".

But after seeing Asuna's eyes, he hesitated for a moment but didn't speak, Kirito didn't have any thoughts about Asuna, he was just a little thin-skinned, and there was such a girl who was obviously a little disgusted with this kind of nudity here, he was really embarrassed to wear that equipment, and he always felt like a perverted transvestite.

"Actually, this kind of belt-tied armor with a magical effect is the most suitable for Asuna to wear with the Lord and agility, you have ......"

Although Klein was interested, he politely asked Asuna about it first, considering the suitability.

And his inquiry, in exchange for Asuna's very cold expression.

Klein was stunned for a moment, and after glancing at the "belt" armor, he also reacted quickly.

Thinking about Asuna's identity as a "novice to the game", he felt that Asuna might have misunderstood him.

"No...... Asuna ...... You listen to me, I think purely from the direction of improving the combat effectiveness of the squad, and I don't mean anything else, it doesn't matter if you don't want it, I just want it, hahaha... Ha ha... Ha ......"

Klein smiled awkwardly, put away the "strong belt underwear", and then decisively changed it himself.

"Poof!"

Klein just put it on, and the brothers couldn't help but burst out laughing, I have to say, this guy is really spicy when he wears it, and the picture is so beautiful that it can't be described.

"You'd better take it off, the attribute bonus brought by the equipment can't offset the mental damage you bring to your teammates."

Ling Ze was a little speechless, a man wearing such black cover-up leather armor was indeed a little bit of a commotion.

Asuna simply turned around, almost not laughing, compared to the disgusting and exaggerated muscular hunk of the Minotaur, Klein wore this kind of thing, and with his red hair, there was an inexplicable sense of joy.

"Is that an exaggeration?"

Klein scratched his head, although he also felt a little weird, but it wasn't so exaggerated, right?

Looking at his smiling companions, Klein took off his "power belt underwear" and changed back into normal leather armor.

"I thought it didn't matter what I was wearing during this time in the maze, I was all my own anyway."

Klein was a little distressed, he finally got this rare treasure, and it would be a pity not to use it.

"I think it's better to sell, Mr. Achill should be a good fit, what do you think? His tall stature was just enough to hold up this odd piece of equipment. ”

Kirito came up with the idea, and the majestic and tall black man Achill obviously made a deep impression on Kirito.

"yes, I think so."

Klein agreed, the partners of the "Wind Forest Volcano" talked a lot, and they all agreed to this solution, if you think about it a little, I feel that that guy is really quite suitable, they have all fought with Akyll before, and they are naturally impressed by that brave guy.

After solving the problem with this piece of equipment, Ling Ze and his group continued to move upward, coming to the second layer of the labyrinth area where more "Bull Clan Warriors" began to appear.

"This should be the floor where the boss room is located, let's find the location of the treasure chest on this floor first, and then explore the location of the boss room by the way."

After going up to the second floor, Kirito once again led everyone to start looking for the treasure chest, and there was no hurry to find the boss room, after all, they wouldn't immediately switch the bottom boss.

"What kind of guy is the boss at the end of this layer? Is it also a minotaur? It can't be Minotoros, right? ”

Klein asked curiously, Kirito hasn't mentioned the second layer of the final boss until now.

"Although it's a minotaur, it's not a Minotaur, after all, if the developer really changed the name of the minotaur to the bull clan as Asuna said, how could he not set the boss of the end to the Minotaur, right?"

Kirito shook his head, and Asuna lifted her chin slightly, with an expression that was exactly as I thought.

"The boss at the end of the pass is a red-haired minotaur named General Bull Baran, and it has only one guard, called Colonel Bull Nato, although there are not many guards, but Colonel Nato is equivalent to a weakened General Baran, much stronger than those guards of the first layer of bosses."

Kirito told what he knew, but in fact, the real difficulty of the "bull warriors" is not how fierce their attacks are and how high the damage is, but the special mechanisms they carry.

In SAO, the monsters' attacks on players can be roughly divided into two systems, the first is to reduce HP, which is the so-called "direct attack".

On the other hand, "indirect attacks" are often referred to as "obstruction effects" in which the HP does not decrease after being attacked, but sometimes causes a greater crisis.

Perhaps Akihiko Kayaba, who designed this death game, may still have a little mercy for beginner players, so all the kobolds who inhabit the first layer of the maze area will hardly use the "obstruction effect" attack.

If I have to say, the "action delay" that almost caused Diabel's death can barely be regarded as a "hindrance effect", but it is actually a "status abnormality" that has a high probability of appearing as long as it is continuously attacked with great power, so it cannot be regarded as a special obstruction effect attack inherent to kobold lords.

Therefore, the minotaur "Bull Clan" inhabiting the second layer of the labyrinth is the real "obstruction effect" users that players face for the first time, and they have the kind of real skills that almost do not lose blood and only cause "hindering effect", which is completely different from the "kobold lord" on the first floor.

"So the amount of HP,In the face of this layer of bosses,It's not that important.,As long as you can dodge its attacks with obstruction effects.,It's really hard to dodge.,Equipment enhancement level is a little higher.,It's okay to stack more resistance to abnormal states.。

Kirito said about his experience, so at this time it reflects the importance of Nezhha, that little blacksmith can help them a lot, and this is one of the main reasons why that guy is so popular in Marmelo, about this layer of bosses, Argo, who made the strategy manual, should have also been released.

"Seriously, Nezhha's name is really weird, and I never understand why he's called it."

Speaking of Nezhha, Klein scratched his head and expressed his doubts, he asked Nezha this question, and Nezha didn't tell him, which made him even more curious.

Kirito, Asuna, and the "Wind Forest Volcano" are unknown, and Nezha doesn't explain the meaning of the name.

"Actually, his name is not Nezha, Nezha, this should be read Nezha."

In the end, it was Ling Ze who helped them answer this question, unlike Kirito, Klein, and Asuna, Ling Ze's first reaction after seeing this name was Nezha, and this name directly got the "stone hammer" after he killed several of Nezhha's "companions".

"Nezha?! Why is he called that? ”

Kirishi and Klein didn't react, but Asuna looked surprised, apparently only she understood the meaning of the name, which made the boys look at her.

"Nezha, also known as the third prince of Nezha, is a young god who appeared in the fantasy "Romance of the Gods" of the Ming Dynasty in China, he can not only control many weapons called treasures, but also can fly in the air on two wheels."

Asuna gave them an answer very intimately, and it can be seen that Asuna seems to be really interested in mythology, as can be seen from the previous Minotaur's incident, and it is even more surprising that she will know Nezha, after all, she is not a flower planter.

"It's weird, but it's probably true."

Ling Ze couldn't laugh or cry a little, what the hell is "flying in the air on two wheels"? Is it a bicycle?

"The reason why he is called this name should be related to the guild he was in before, I'm not sure, but the names of the people in that guild are all in this style."

Ling Ze explained, but this was actually his guess, and he really didn't care much about Nezhha's name.

"The leader of those guys is called Orlando, Orlando is actually the paladin Roland, this name comes from "Crazy Orlando", this book is based on "The Song of Roland", and then refers to the fusion of the songs of many poets to Charlemagne and his warriors over the centuries, and there is a two-handed sword envoy called Beowulf, a two-handed pistol called Cúchulainn, a shield-wielding hammer envoy called Gilgamesh, a knife envoy called Enkidu, and the guild name is Legendary Brave."

As soon as Ling Ze's words were finished, Kirito, Asuna, and Klein were all embarrassed in an instant, in fact, Ling Ze was also quite embarrassed at that time, after all, there were still a lot of "acquaintances" in these names, and when he killed those guys, Ling Ze had a sense of confusion, and he only felt that something was wrong.

"Those guys... The name is really daring......"

Kirito couldn't help but sigh, he really admired it a little, because that kind of name was undoubtedly a public execution!

Klein, a guy who obviously likes Takeda Shingen, just called the guild "Wind Forest Volcano", and he didn't name himself Takeda Shingen!

Klein named the guild "Wind Forest Volcano", of course, not because he read through "The Art of War" and liked Sun Wu, but because he liked "Kai no Tiger", "The First General of the Warring States", and "The First War Artist of the Warring States" Takeda Shingen.

Well, it's possible that he didn't even know that "Wind Forest Volcano" was from "The Art of War".
