Planting the World Tree From Pirates

Labyrinth area.

Located at the northernmost end of the first floor of Aincrad, is a sturdy tower with a diameter of 300 meters and a height of 100 meters.

Torbana.

Located in the valley not far from the labyrinth area, it is the most prosperous town nearby.

Because the guard boss is located in the labyrinth area, a large number of players came to Torbana to station.

Perhaps the game designer has long considered the gathering of a large number of players. The design of the town is unusually convenient, and you can see hotels, restaurants, weapon shops, taverns and other facilities everywhere.

The scenery of the town is also unique.

The building is located in an orderly, all-European style building, looking antique and very exotic.

Urban greening is also very aesthetically designed.

Parks, fountains, arenas...you name it!

If in reality, in such a town, housing prices can absolutely skyrocket.

I don't know how many people have worked hard all their lives, and maybe they can't buy a toilet here.

but.

In a death game like SAO, no one has the mood to appreciate the scenery no matter how beautiful it is!

In Torbana, a large number of players are silently licking their wounds.

I don't know how many people are repairing their weapons and cloth armor attentively. It seems that only in this way can they give them a little sense of security.

Too many people have died. In just one month, nearly one-tenth of them died, putting unimaginable pressure on every player.

To make matters worse, after paying one-tenth of the casualties, they still haven't been able to defeat the boss on the first floor.

You know, the entire SAO has 100 layers.

Can they really beat the game?

Every player has a psychological shadow on their hearts!

Initially, players had fantasies about outside rescues.

A mere game, in front of the state machine, what is this?

but.

Time passed by, and they did not get any rescue.

Players familiar or unfamiliar around them died one by one, which made everyone feel desperate for rescue from the outside.

Makino and Kirito were walking on the streets of Torbana. Although they were not as desperate as those ordinary players, they still had a heavy feeling in their hearts.

Along the way, life is full of changes.

Compared with half a month ago, it is a completely different situation.

Half a month ago, although the players were still extremely frightened, the pride that they wanted to hit the hundredth floor was still there.

No one wants to be a prisoner, let alone a precarious one.

But now, there are more and more players with numb expressions on their faces.

After numbness, it is indulgence and sinking.

Half a month ago, most players were reluctant to spend an extra koel on food.

Eat the cheapest bread that tastes like firewood.

But now, there are a lot of players drinking a glass of beer that is as high as 10 to 20 kels.

The two even saw that a player was thrown out of the tavern by the irascible NPC tavern owner because he was very drunk but did not have Cole to pay for the drink.

What is even more shocking is that the players who were thrown out of the tavern lie down wherever they were thrown out.

Drunk like mud, like a salted fish without a dream.

The sinking of people's hearts is much faster than the two imagined.

If you think about it, you can understand it. In reality, everyone is an ordinary person.

There are many students who have never experienced social beatings. How strong can they be expected to withstand pressure?

Makino looked at Kirito, "Do you want a drink?"

Kirito was a little hesitant. He was only 14 years old, and he was far from the age to drink.

but.

What he's seen and felt recently made him feel the urge to have a drink.

Then, Kirito felt like he was being dragged into the tavern.

After drinking a glass of beer, Kirito cried out his sins.

It's all Muye's fault, he's been brought down.

Beer, the taste is also very ordinary!

Then, Kirito took the initiative to order a large glass.

At first, most of the people drank silently, but after a few large glasses of beer entered their stomachs, many people began to become drunk and blurred.

Some people are usually taciturn, but they become chatty as soon as they drink.

"Dead, even the guild leader whose technology is many times better than me has died. Maybe I will be the one who will die next time!"

As soon as the words fell, the eyes of everyone in the tavern converged on the past.

It was only then that everyone realized that the speaker was a handsome young man wearing leather armor.

It looks like he is only fourteen or fifteen years old, which is the appearance of a middle school student.

At this time, his face was flushed, and it was obvious that he had drunk too much.

However, it is precisely because of this that the true feelings are revealed, and the tears do not stop.

Because of the drunkenness, the words were unclear, and even some of the forewords did not match the afterwords, but everyone still made up the story of the young man.

The teenager is still a middle school student in reality and has always liked games.

However, the boy is not a skilled player like Kirito, so he cannot be called a high-level gamer.

However, how many real game masters are there?

For ordinary people, playing games as long as they have fun is enough.

Even if you roll your face on the keyboard, even if you are scolded as a primary school student, so what?

The teenager is relatively withdrawn, but he still met some friends in the game.

For example, the guild leader who often takes him to kill monsters, and the guild friends who often level up together.

They even queued for days in order to be able to buy SAO's gaming helmets.

I didn't know how excited I was when I was lucky to be the first batch of SAO players.

However, no one thought that on the first day of the game, everything changed.

Twenty days ago, the guild friend who usually took good care of him died under the siege of several gray wolves;

Fifteen days ago, the guy in the guild who always liked to bicker with him died.

And he still wanted to apologize to him, because he was timid and cowardly, and failed to hold back the hatred of a little goblin as planned...

ten days ago.

The prestige is very high, and the president who has been coordinating the overall situation has also died... He is a waste!

Hearing the young man's words, everyone felt a sense of sympathy.

I don't know how many people have been hit by the young man's words, and they can no longer be strong.

"Trash, I'm just trash. I promised to protect Naoko and live with her until the end. The result...the result..."

A decadent young man choked up.

Naoko is his real girlfriend, originally Naoko didn't play games.

However, he wanted to share what he liked with Naoko, so he dragged her into the game together.

As a result, Naoko, who had never played the game and didn't even know how to level up, was directly killed by several small monsters.

However, he vowed to protect Naoko, but he was dragged by a small monster of only level 4.

He could only watch Naoko die in front of him, and he couldn't even hug her one last time.

When he saw Naoko turned into countless small fragments in front of him, and then completely dissipated, the young man felt that his heart was completely empty.

The young man was so remorseful and dejected that he almost filled the entire tavern.

"Mom, I don't play games secretly anymore. I was wrong!"

A young child burst into tears.

Usually, his parents have always been against him playing games.

He was full of games at that time, how could he listen to his parents' nagging?

As a result, he was stuck in the game.

He hated SAO, Kayaba Akihiko, and even those players who robbed him of his equipment and beat him.

Unfortunately, there is no regret medicine in life.

With the increase of complainants, it was like opening a Pandora's box in the tavern.

More and more people have joined the ranks of regrets, complaints, pleadings, and abuse.

A young mother wailing in despair!

After getting married, she became a housewife.

However, this is really too boring.

In a sense, she became the mother of a child before she was even ready to be a mother.

In addition, the newly born child was too noisy, which made her feel extremely depressed.

I even suffered from postpartum depression!

So, I just want to play a game to relax.

How lucky she was when she got the helmet, how unlucky she is now.

She is trapped in the game, who will take care of the child who has not been weaned?

My husband is also on the rise in his career, and now he has to take care of her and the children at the same time, can the husband hold on to it?

She is so sorry!

However, where in this world is there any regret medicine to sell?

Happy families are generally similar, but unhappy families are unhappy in their own way.

Inside the tavern, it became more and more depressing.

Complaints, sobbing, weeping, swearing...they are endless!

Maybe it's almost time to vent, and the topic is crooked when chatting.

scolding SAO, scolding Kayaba, scolding monsters, scolding NPCs for money, and scolding beta testers who only care about themselves and upgrade their lives regardless of their lives...

In particular, scolding the beta testers has resonated with many frustrated players.

It seems that their failures and frustrations are generally caused by the selfishness of the beta testers.

Later, even Makino and Kirito, who distributed the game guide, lay guns.

The reason is that the guide is not comprehensive and accurate enough.

I don't know how many players have mistrusted the guide and regretted it for life.

Muye is quite open to seeing, after all, he has traveled through several worlds, what kind of people have not seen?

On the contrary, it was Kirito, whose eyebrows were directly wrinkled into the word "Chuan", and finally he could only drown his head in depression and drink alcohol.

Later, a bald man, who did not know where he found a saxophone, buried his head and began to play.

For a while, a desolate and melodious voice spread throughout the tavern.

Let that depressed, depressed, dull atmosphere, to a higher level.

When the love was so strong, a woman's voice rang out and sang along with the saxophone's voice.

The singing is like weeping, sobbing faintly, indescribably sad, and endlessly desolate.

The song is over, the people are scattered.

More and more people couldn't stand this repression and fled the pub one after another.

After stepping out of the tavern, both Makino and Kirito could not help but breathe a sigh of relief.

There are too many disappointed people in the tavern.

Everyone is the protagonist of a sad story.

Even Makino and Kirito couldn't help being affected.

In particular, the story of the mother made the two feel extremely heavy.

Kayaba Akihiko... How many families have been destroyed because of him?

Although the mentality of both of them is very good, the abuse of those disappointed players to the beta testers still makes them a little concerned.

It's not that those people are justified in scolding, nor is it that they feel guilty for monopolizing resources.

After all, everyone is a player, not their parent. Everyone is fighting for it, and no one owes anyone!

What they both care about is the passing of their lives!

evening.

The setting sun is like remnant blood, and the beautiful town is soaked, as if there are thousands of corpses floating in blood, making life inexplicably desolate.

The hotel where Makino and Kirito lived was in the core area of ​​Torbana. The location was slightly remote, but the living conditions were better.

along the way.

Neither of them said a word, and they seemed rather depressed.

I don't know how long it has passed~www.wuxiamtl.com~ The street lights on both sides of the road turned on.

Only then did the two realize that the sky had been completely dark without knowing it.

At this moment, the two unexpectedly saw a young boy with blue hair wearing cloth armor, handing out flyers.

flyer?

Not worth mentioning in reality, even a little annoying.

But in SAO, this is a novelty.

And even more coincidentally, Makino also knew the blue-haired boy.

He wasn't trying to get the dropped items, but who was Diabel who was killed by Kayaba Akihiko?

Diabel is very enthusiastic, and the content on the flyer is clear at a glance, that is, he calls on everyone to form a team to fight the defensive boss.

The two did not communicate much with Diabel, but holding such a flyer in their hands, both of them were filled with emotion.

Especially Kirito, his heart even became hot.

Kirito's face was resolute, "Muye, I have decided to go to the boss strategy meeting tomorrow, and then defeat the guard boss."

Defeating the guard boss on the first floor is of great significance.

Nowadays, all players really need a booster.

Otherwise, no one knows whether everyone can continue to persevere.

Muye didn't talk too much nonsense, and said directly, "The head of the boss, I have a reservation."

Kirito laughed immediately, and he knew that Muye would never fall for this kind of thing.

"Don't dream of your head dog, I will never let you take away the head of the guard boss."

"Wait and see."

"Who is afraid of whom?"

The two were noisy, and the sound spread farther and farther.

At the street lamp where the two of them walked, several moths kept flying around the street lamp.
