Chapter 43, the 10001st player (ask for a monthly ticket)
My name is Kiritani Kazuto, I am an Internet addict... No, I am an online game enthusiast. Since the end of the closed beta of SAO, everything in reality seems so boring. After finally waiting for the public beta, but It was turned into a death game by mad scientists.
In reality, I am obedient, but in the game, I strike hard.
If this is the case, let me clear the game and save everyone.
I stared at the giant pillar that suddenly appeared, and made a big wish.
【Starting Town】, Central Square.
Aomori stood on the top of the totem pole. The tattered sportswear on his body lowered him a lot, but he still tried his best to pretend to be unfathomable. He looked down at the players below and said, "My name is Aomori , the identity is a senior agent affiliated to the Ministry of National Defense."
"What? So it's an agent?"
"Are you here to catch Akihiko Kayaba? Hurry up and catch him!"
"I'm a taxpayer who pays tens of millions every year, so get me out of this **** place!"
"Asshole! It's the inaction of you people from the government that got us into such a dangerous predicament. After I get out, I will accuse the media of your incompetence!"
Suddenly, thunder sounded, suppressing the voices of the players.
"Hey, Kirito, didn't you say you can't use magic?" Klein, who was wearing a red turban, said blankly.
"I don't know..." Kirito, the second-year boy and the protagonist of the original book, is also unclear about the situation.
Aomori held up 【Liuguang】, squinted his eyes, and said with a warm smile: "Be safe and don't be impatient, please listen to me."
"As you can see, I know long-range skills. That's because the account I logged into is a special account with some GM privileges, which can exert the combat power equivalent to a full-level queen."
"Full-level tuba?!" Kirito, who stood back in the crowd, was shocked. As a beta player, he naturally understood how strong this would be. "If this is the case, maybe you can really pass the level."
"Great!" Most of the other players can also understand that the stronger Aomori is, the better it is, and the easier it is for them to hug their thighs. For them, Aomori falling from the sky is equivalent to the only life-saving herb.
"So, my colleague is in charge of Kayaba Akihiko outside, and I am responsible for clearing the game and saving you guys, if Kayaba Akihiko is not lying." Aomori said.
"why is it like this…"
"Is there no other reliable way?"
"I don't even want to stay for a minute in this broken game."
"If you have any good suggestions, feel free to put them forward. If not, for the sake of your safety, you must follow my instructions obediently in the future, otherwise you will bear the consequences." Aomori's voice was not loud, but everyone Can hear clearly.
Most of the people were waiting to hug their thighs, while some looked struggling.
Suddenly, a male player with a sharp mouth and monkey cheeks jumped out and questioned: "How do you prove that what you said is true? What if you were sent by Akihiko Kayaba to deliberately mislead us?"
"It makes sense."
Aomori shook his head: "There is no way to prove it. You can choose to believe me, or wait for us to pass the customs in the town. As long as it doesn't hinder us."
"Hmph, if you say you can't prove it, you're obviously guilty." The male player teased.
Many people began to waver, whether they should trust this handsome guy, their attitudes wavered from side to side.
"Time is precious, so don't waste it. If you can trust me, go to the exit of the West End of [Starting Town] now, and I will wait for your arrival there. The time limit is one hour."
After finishing speaking, Aomori jumped off the totem pole, and when he was about to land, a white light suddenly flashed under him, and a white-bodied canine creature appeared, carrying him out of the central square.
In the sky, a large and vigorous bird suddenly appeared and flew into the distance.
"So handsome."
"I'm really envious, I hate cheating."
"That should be the animal trainer's familiar, I didn't expect him to have that." Kirito said with the same envy.
"Hey, Kirito, would you choose to follow him?" Klein, who had an indissoluble bond with Kirito, asked.
Now, many players have already gone to the West District.
"Ah." Kirito pondered for a moment, and just about to answer, he heard Klein say: "I will follow him, because I can see that he is a great master, just like you. Kirito, you Just go with me, please trust my vision."
"Of course I believe it. A few hours ago, you saw my extraordinaryness at a glance." Kirito said with a smile.
"That means, you promised!"
"Um."
"Okay!" Klein cheered, and said, "I still need to find my friends first, Kirito, you should go there by yourself first."
"Okay, see you on the West End."
"See you in the West End."
Looking at the back of Klein going away, Kirito's smile gradually faded away.
He saw that the guy named Aomori was a master, but he was not sure whether he was good or bad. The reason why he agreed to follow was to see if it was a trap with his own eyes. After all, the lives of thousands of people were at stake.
But, even if it is a trap, what can he do? Can you stop him?
Kirito recalled Aomori's various performances, and became more and more uncertain. Summoning stone pillars, using thunder and lightning, and being able to use magic in this world of swords is really a trick.
Shaking his head, Kirito followed the direction of the flow of people and took steps.
In the open space at the exit of the West District, there stands a totem pole that is exactly the same as the one on the square. Aomori sits on it, leaning against Absolu, watching the crowd around the totem pole grow.
Aomori forged an identity temporarily, mainly to give a reasonable explanation for his own strength. In addition, Aincrad is too big, and he will definitely not be able to pass the level within the specified time on his own.
Once you start to conquer the maze, your prowess will definitely fall into the sight of Akihiko Kayaba. In this way, it is better to jump out now than to hide it. At least you can recruit a lot of workers, and you can even get invincible for nothing Helped by Captain Heathcliff—the vest of Akihiko Kayaba.
There are many loopholes in Aomori's identity, and he can't hide it for too long, but as long as he doesn't show a deceitful personality, then no one will choose to kill him.
This wave, Aomori is in the atmosphere.
An hour later, there were nearly 3,000 players gathered under the totem pole of Aomori. Except for some players who didn't trust Aomori, most of them probably couldn't accept the reality and chose to stay in the starting town.
"Bibi!" The Bibi bird fell from the sky, landed on Aomori's shoulder, and kept "Bibibi" toward him.
Aomori nodded, looked around at the dark heads, and said loudly: "I'm glad that everyone can trust me. I won't talk nonsense about the so-called time to see people's hearts. Just remember three sentences, life is precious, and you can protect it well." The only thing I have is the sword in my hand and the teammates around me. As the leader, I will always charge at the forefront. Let’s not be underestimated by monsters in mere games, humans will win!”
"Humanity will prevail!"
Yeah, those AIs are just data. Will we lose to such an opponent? Many players who are confident in their skills are full of excitement, thinking that they can single-handedly beat the boss.
"Now, beta testers, please raise your hands." Aomori added, "Don't worry, I just want to get some information on how to conquer the labyrinth area. Those who provided the information have a lot of credit, except that there are various subsidies and preferential treatment in the game In addition, they will be honored by the state after going out.”
After the voice fell, some people in the crowd raised their hands sparsely, including Kirito.
Aomori simply counted, there are nearly 600 people, and there are only 1,000 beta testers in total, 60% of them here, but there must be some people who hide their identities.
"600 people, that's enough." Aomori said, "Please go to the two sides of the team to protect the novice players. We have to rush to the next town before it is completely dark. Novice players should also familiarize themselves with the operation early. We don't have much time left."
"yes!"
Attack is a theatrical version, I thought it was a drama.
