Dimensional Chat Room

Chapter 126 Delicious Cake

Wanting to escape from this death game is the code of conduct for almost all players in SAO. Kibaou also started to act based on this, whether it was to obtain equipment or upgrade his level, it was not for the purpose of pursuing satisfaction before, but for the purpose of returning to reality.

It is impossible for anyone to accept dying in a virtual game like this. Under this huge pressure, the instinctive desire to survive will endlessly break through the lower limit.

However, Ye You also completely grasped the information about his real life. At this moment, Kibaou suddenly lost his goal, and for a moment he even thought that it would be good if he could stay here forever.

Kibaou understood the common wishes of nine out of ten players, whether it was because he was sincerely ‘targeting the beta testers’ or he wanted to ‘become the spokesperson for the majority of players and then control the right to speak’. No matter what he really thought, it was meaningless at this moment.

The strongest player? The strongest guild? so what? Kibaou felt that everything was meaningless at this moment. Isn't everything I do trying to get out of this prison as soon as possible?

Then what? Will someone from somewhere come to your door? Just thinking about this made Kibaou feel extremely scared. Or do you want to stay in this virtual world forever? Isn't this even more pitiful?

At this moment, he was really scared.

When you do whatever you want in the virtual world, and are suddenly found by people in real life, I am afraid only the person involved can understand this fear. Kibaou didn't understand how he could investigate his identity in Aincrad, which was completely cut off from the outside world. Even if he had attached great importance to privacy protection in the past, no one could grasp his own comprehensive information. Information, and even things like five kisses can be known. This is no longer something that can be found out through the Internet, right?

Kibaou couldn't understand it, but he realized that someone who could control his identity like this was something that a convenience store clerk couldn't resist.

Kibaou is just an ordinary person at the bottom of society. He just used a little cleverness in the game to stand in the center of everyone's attention. After all, he still can't think of killing the opponent. No, that's not the reason. It's because you're worried that you'll be killed instead, right? All members of the Akatsuki Car Guild are monsters, and apart from using the majority to suppress the minority, Kibaou doesn't feel that he has any advantage.

so what should I do now?

If I kneel down and apologize properly, will he forgive me? You might as well just stay in seclusion on the first floor and never show your face again.

Once it comes to reality, Kibaou's heroic spirit evaporates instantly and becomes mud on the ground.

Eleventh floor, maze area.

Kibaou had been taken away, and the news spread quickly here.

The hateful closed beta players of the Akatsuki Car Guild bully the weak and even attack other players. This is the message released by members of the Aincrad Liberation Team.

Kibaou blocked the entrance to the maze area, not allowing all beta testers to enter, and asked the beta testers to hand over all their equipment and kneel down to apologize, so he was taught a lesson. This is news that comes from someone’s mouth.

Two different messages are constantly being exchanged among all players. Although it is still unclear who the closed beta players are, an invisible barrier is getting thicker between ordinary players and closed beta players.

That's fine.

It is much easier to create conflicts than to resolve them. Ye You no longer has time to slowly adjust. There are only nearly eleven months left before Aincrad is fully realized, and there are still 88 floors left to clear.

Then simply form a strategy team whose members are all beta testers. Nowadays, if a person walks alone outside the circle, and his identity is exposed, he may be jointly 'executed' by other players. The beta testers must be very willing to join a team.

Today's events have further aroused conflicts. After Argo the mouse completely spreads the chat records of the strategy group meeting, another strategy group will be formed.

Ye You entered the leveling area with an orange cursor on his head, and Asuna followed behind. This is a gesture that he must express, and it is also a signal that the Akatsuki Car cannot be blocked at any time.

In the maze, in order to avoid the alertness of other players and possible unnecessary fights, although Ye You tried his best to go to remote areas, he still encountered players exploring the map inside.

They saw the orange cursor on Ye You's head, and his eyes showed strong alert. It was a signal that he had attacked other players. If such a player appeared in this dangerous maze area, he would be boycotted by all the green players.

But after seeing his face clearly, doubts appeared in his eyes. Most of the players exploring the maze area are warriors active on the front lines and have defeated bosses with the Akatsuki. It can be said that they are comrades in arms. But no matter what, they still won't let down their guard.

Ye You just smiled at this and went directly to the unexplored foggy area of ​​the map without making any further stops.

Asuna remained silent on the road. She didn't move until she met the monster in the maze area. The rapier made today's attack much more powerful than before.

"You don't seem to be in a very good mood." After the battle, Asuna's experience bar increased again, and Ye You sat on a protruding stone and smiled.

Asuna, who over-attacked, was very exhausted mentally. The last two monsters could be killed with normal attacks, but she still used sword skills. The cost of this was excessive mental load. After being guided by Neet Ji and Kuang, Asuna Na, I would never have made such an obviously low-level mistake in the past.

The rapier user didn't reply immediately. She walked to Ye You and leaned against the wall, closed her eyes to adjust her breathing, and then said: "We have done so much, but in the end we were hostile... To be honest, it's a bit uncomfortable. Be willing to do so.”

Asuna can be said to be a perfectionist to a certain extent, and such a situation is considered a failure to her, giving her a slight sense of frustration.

"Take it." Ye You took out the cream cake from the inventory and handed it to the tired rapier user.

"cake?"

"It's good for eliminating fatigue." Ye You said with a smile.

"It's just imaginary food. Even if you eat it in your real body, you won't take in a single bit of sugar." Asuna said while holding her rapier.

Having said that, in this world, if you don’t eat, the hunger simulated by the signal will continue to exist.

Although you can block this false sense of hunger with willpower, there is no need to resist needlessly when food is right in front of you. Asuna took the cake and took a bite, then chewed it as if her taste buds were stimulated.

"It's quite delicious."

It has a pastoral-style taste, the cream is fragrant and smooth, and it also has a refreshing and sour taste similar to yogurt. Although Ye You was mentally exhausted after the battle and wanted to eat, Asuna, who was holding the cake and eating it all at once, really couldn't say anything negative.

"You can go back to the guild by yourself later. I, Tachibana, will be suppressed by the guards once I arrive in the town. It will take a few days to recover. I will not be online these days."

This was also the reason why Ye You blocked Asuna's rapier attack at the beginning. If Asuna could not return to the safe area to rest, there would be considerable risks.

"Ah, okay."

After exploring the maze, the two parted at the gate of the town. When Ye You was about to log off, Asuna stopped him: "Um, where did you get the cake?"

Since landing in SAO, Asuna has only maintained the minimum level of food and clothing. After all, she didn't come here just to eat.

But the cake just now made Asuna, who had not enjoyed delicious food for a long time, really excited. Obviously in real life, even if there are all kinds of cakes from all over the world in front of you, you just feel empty. But here, after fighting, you will feel extremely delicious. Even though it was just a fictitious feeling of satisfaction created by the taste reproduction engine, I still couldn't help but want to eat it again.

"Ah, I'm sorry, maybe it's gone. This was obtained from the mission 'Lost Key to the Cake Shop' on the eighth floor, but it seems that the mission can only be accepted once."

"That's it."

A trace of disappointment flashed across Asuna's face, and then she said goodbye to Ye You with a smile.

(New episode: The Promised Neverland, blown up.)

(Um...can I ask for a recommendation vote? (///ω///))
