After the strategy was over, Viscount Yofelith left with the soldiers of the "Dark Elves", Ling Ze and them naturally followed, this time they didn't go to the fifth layer first, after all, Viscount Jofelith still had two treasures there was still uncollected, and they had to go back together.

It is worth mentioning that Viscount Joferis, who finally killed the "Horse-headed Mermaid Weiz", actually gave Ling Ze the reward dropped by the boss's last blow.

Viscount Jofelith said that he didn't need it, so after pushing it twice, Ling Ze and they simply accepted it.

After returning to "Jofer City", Ling Ze and the others carefully selected for a while before they finally settled the task and each selected the equipment that satisfied them.

They are really not polite, they choose very precious and useful items, after all, they are all with the mentality of some players, since it is said that it is a task reward, then even if it is a real heirloom of the "Jofer family", they will not hesitate to take it, this is the gamer.

"Take care, if you have time, you can come to Joffel City more often."

After selecting the treasures, Ling Ze and the others said goodbye to Viscount Jofelis, but Viscount Jofelis did not keep them, but sent them out very simply.

"Kizmail, the Tilnell pleases you."

Kizmer followed Ling Ze and the others to the labyrinth area with the "Tilnelle", and after Ling Ze and the others went ashore, they entrusted the "Tilnell" to Kizmer.

"Don't worry, I'll take good care of her."

Kizmer assured Ling Ze and the others, and then the group separated again, and Ling Ze and the others went to the fifth floor entrance of the boss room, and Kizmel returned to "Jofer City".

"A question occurred to me, how can we get to Jofer City without the Ternier?"

After entering the boss room and starting to climb the spiral staircase leading to the fifth floor, Asuna suddenly said worriedly.

"Ah......h

Asuna's question instantly stumped Kirito and them.

"Once the transfer door on the fifth floor of the main block is effective, we can use the transfer door to go back to the main block of Robia on the fourth floor, and then move from there to Jofer City."

Ling Ze replied, in fact, the method is still very simple, for example, they can collect a little more materials casually, and then ask the old shipwright Ramoro to build a ship for them.

"It seems like it works."

Asuna nodded thoughtfully, agreeing with Ling Ze's statement, she also thought that this method was indeed feasible, and now she didn't have to worry about not being able to go back to "Jofer City".

Everyone walked all the way, and soon, in the dim front, they finally saw the classic double-open door, the relief carved on it, the pattern is the same as the sealed test period, only some very slight differences, which makes Kirito, who has always been worried, can't help but breathe a sigh of relief.

"Looks like my experience has worked."

Kirito muttered, although he also knew that due to the number of layers of the strategy during the closed beta period, there would always be a day when his experience would not come in handy, but if he could be as late as possible, he still hoped to be later.

It's not that he hopes that he can always guide everyone's actions, he just simply hopes that there will be less trouble on the way to the strategy, just like this time, because of the lack of intelligence, the strategy team was almost completely wiped out, and he hopes that this kind of thing will not happen in the future.

"The fifth layer is the layer of ruins, the forest is extremely scarce, and the environment is very dark, it is very difficult to pick up firewood for lighting, fortunately we picked up a lot of wood in advance."

The walls along the way are customarily covered with reliefs that hint at the topography and scenery of the upper floors, and the reliefs on the gate are a huge old castle, not as chic and beautiful as the "Jofer Castle" surrounded by a lake, but more like a solid fortress.

"Ruins? What kind of terrain is it? ”

Everyone who has not participated in the closed test looks at this relief, and naturally they can't see any tricks, so they can only let Kirito introduce it.

"The layer of ruins, the natural terrain of the fifth layer of the wild is only about thirty percent, and the rest of the places are all like labyrinth-like ruins, which means that the entire fifth layer can be said to be a labyrinth area in a sense, and it is also very dim, PK events often occur during the closed beta period, after all, it is easy to be ambushed by black lights."

Kirito opened his mouth to explain that the fifth layer is actually very dangerous, in addition to those wild monsters hiding in the shadows, players can also be a source of danger, especially those perverted red players who take pleasure in killing.

“......”

Everyone was a little silent, at the beginning, everyone still felt that the current SAO could not have players who love PK, because the biggest wish of all players is to get out of this virtual world, and the act of attacking and killing other players will only make the game strategy more difficult, and no one will do such a thankless thing.

But now, when it comes to "red players", everyone's faces are very serious, because it is conceivable that the fifth layer will definitely become a paradise for "red players".

Everyone silently pushed open the door and entered the fifth layer of the "Ruins Layer", they were not too worried about their safety, after all, with their strong team strength, they were not afraid of attacks, but those weak players, who had just been encouraged by the "Raiders Group" to go out of the city, were likely to become the prey of those "red players".

This is quite possible, after all, those "red players" are not stupid and know who to ambush.

The blue-black night shrouded the earth, and the entire fifth layer could not be reached, and in the lower layers, although it was also dark at night, there would still be a faint clear light formed by the reflection of the moonlight from the periphery.

But in this fifth layer, the moonlight is almost not felt, everything around is just darkness, even if you look at the people around you, you can only see black silhouettes.

"Crackle."

Ling Ze lit the torch, this is a very simple tool-making skill, as long as there is wood on the body, you can rub it out, after Kirito's prompting, they have picked up a lot.

"Crackle, crackle."

Kirito and the others soon lit torches, in the darkness, lighting torches will undoubtedly become targets, and will continue to attract the attention of possible monsters around them, but it is almost the same if they don't light the torches, they can see clearly by lighting the torches.

Everyone walked all the way to the main block on the fifth floor, although it was dark around, but because the fifth floor had basically not changed much, Kirito could lead the way in front with ease.

The main block "Karuin" on the fifth floor of the Ayn Grant, built in the center of a huge ruin located in the southern part of the floor, is a city in the style of "reusing the city of the past", which is probably the "wasteland style" of the SAO world.

Compared to the fourth-floor main town of Lobia, which has a wide waterway, there is no water at all, but it also does not feel like it is full of dust.

Although the collapsed buildings made of blue rock are everywhere, the streets of the central part of the city are neatly flanked, with rows of tents made of leather and cloth, giving the city a chaotic and vibrant look.

Of course, it's okay to say it's a huge colony.

Ling Ze and the others lit torches and walked straight along the road surrounded by a half-broken stone wall, and there were no arches or pillars in the city that could become landmarks.

Walking along the stone path, they came to a quadrangular square surrounded by mossy ancient buildings, there was silence all around, there was no breath of other players or NPCs, and the afterglow shining from the outer perimeter of the floating city was extremely faint, and the blue-purple night continued to darken.

"During the closed beta, there were players who piled up wooden boxes and other things as landmarks, but that kind of thing was placed as props, so it would decay and disappear after a while outside, and then some people switched to things like broken rocks, in short, they could only rely on their own efforts to create landmarks."

Everyone held torches, first went to find a restaurant to eat, and then went to find an inn, after working for so long, they must have eaten and drunk enough to rest before they could continue to work hard.

Wake up early the next morning.,Everyone took over the task under the leadership of Kirito.,There's no need to ask Argo on this floor.,Just rely on Kirito's own memory to get it done.。

Then, Kirito took everyone to experience the characteristics of the fifth layer, as the fifth layer of the "layer of relics", of course, "relics", or "antiques" are more appropriate.

Kirito held a "silver coin" in his hand, although it was a little old, but it was indeed a "silver coin", but the pattern engraved on the surface of the silver coin was not the usual pattern of the Ayngrunte floating city on the 100 Cole silver coins, but two trees side by side horizontally, and there was only a wonderful coat of arms on the reverse side, and no numbers could be seen.

"The so-called layer of ruins, in addition to the ruins, also needs an important element to be established, that is, relics, ruins and relics, is the main theme of this layer, in this ruins city of Karuruin, in addition to the historic roads and walls, there are such small relics everywhere, it can be regarded as a small easter egg, but this kind of relics can really be sold for money."

Kirito explained to the crowd, and they immediately began to search for the "relics" all over the city, and in the process of searching, they also met many players who were doing the same thing.

In general games, item drops will be marked on the map, or emit a special light in the screen, but in SAO, the item is simply on the ground, and it is difficult to find it if you don't look carefully, so finding the "relic" is not a very easy job.

However, fortunately, there is a special food in "Karuruin" that can give players a "Relic Discovery Buff", and after eating that food, the "Relic" will glow.

"In addition to silver and copper coins, there are quite rare gold coins and gems, as well as rarer things like rings and necklaces with magical effects, but they are even harder to find."

The reason that prompted the "Wind Forest Volcano" team to start searching for "relics" was naturally not "silver coins and copper coins", their goal was rare props, and the "relics" type equipment was very rare, and the attributes were very exaggerated.

It's a pity that the food that provides buffs, "Blue Blueberry Tart", is limited to purchase, and the buff can last for an hour at a time, and each person is limited to one, and only thirty are sold per day.

"There are very few relics on the road, there are almost zero in the shops or houses of NPCs, the focus is on the squares or temples in various places, and then there are places that really look like ruins, there are still quite a lot of such Kaluruin coins."

Kirito and his companions from the Wind Forest Volcano are running around, and according to his experience, they are constantly going to places where it is easy to pick up "relics", and their efficiency is far higher than that of their competitors.

Because Kirito made the judgment that the "relics" will not be updated again, everyone in the "Wind Forest Volcano" is very positive, after all, this means that once the "rare equipment" is picked up by others, then they are doing useless work.

In an hour's time, Ling Ze and the others gained a lot, they found forty-three "copper coins" equivalent to ten kore, nineteen "silver coins" equivalent to one hundred kore, two "small gold coins" equivalent to five hundred kore, one "big gold coin" equivalent to one thousand kore, three "gems" of good quality, one "magic necklace", one "magic bracelet", and two "magic rings".

It only took an hour to collect these, and just talking about making money is quite amazingly efficient.

"Actually, if we want, we can completely split the time of using the blueberry tart, and nine people can use it for nine hours, or we can safely spread it out, and nine people can go to nine different locations to search for it together."

Ling Ze shook his head, he was actually not very interested in the matter of "picking up relics", because in this SAO world, Ke Er is just a number, and the role he can play is very limited, after all, there are no "experience scrolls" and "attribute scrolls" in SAO.

"Nine hours is too much of a waste of time, or to do tasks, fight monsters, picking up relics can be a pastime, and these relics, you can still pick up now, and after other players read the strategy manual, it is estimated that we will not be able to grab the buff of the blue blueberry tower."

Kirito has the same idea as Ling Ze, and his enthusiasm for picking up "relics" is not very high, but Asuna is very interested in it.

"Let's leave these relics to someone else."

Everyone quickly reached a consensus and gave up continuing to pick up "relics", so after selling these "antiques", Ling Ze and the others once again embarked on a journey to fight monsters and do tasks.
