Dimensional journey starting from the sword

Chapter 45 Rescue
How long can Asuna be safe in this tomb full of monsters without a weapon?
"Asuna!"

"Where are you?"

"Can you hear me?"

He Yuan's shouts came from the dark tomb.

However, apart from provoking more monsters, there was no reply at all.

After visiting the first floor for most of the time, He Yuan suddenly realized that he and Asuna had registered as friends?You can send an email directly!
"Me too, panicked."

After giving himself a moment, He Yuan reopened Asuna's name and edited the email.

"Asuna, I found your sword in the tomb maze on the fifth floor, where are you now?"

Click Send.

1 minute, 2 minutes...

"Damn!"

Ten minutes later, He Yuan frowned, but Asuna didn't reply, which made things difficult.

There are only two possibilities, one is in a coma and did not hear the notification tone of the email, and the other is that he is in the middle of a battle and hears the notification tone of the email, but he has not been able to take time out to check the email.

However, no matter what the reason is, Asuna's situation will not be very good.

"Looks like it's time to hurry up."

"If this is the case, let's sweep it again!"

He Yuan glanced around and ran wildly in the tomb. All the monsters blocking He Yuan along the way turned into blue fragments and dissipated.

"No."

"Neither here."

In less than half an hour, He Yuan ran and ransacked the first floor and found many hidden rooms, but there was no sign of Asuna.

"Ding!"

At this time, a voice came from He Yuan's ear, which made He Yuan stunned for a moment, and immediately opened the received email.

This is the email Asuna replied to.

"I don't know. This place is like a closed secret room. A monster will be refreshed every 10 minutes or so. It's safe for the time being."

"Persevere first, I will rescue you as soon as possible!"

"Ah."

After receiving Asuna's reply, He Yuan breathed a sigh of relief as if a stone had been dropped.

Combined with the information Asuna said, some information about the maze flashed in He Yuan's mind.

"According to Asuna's description, did you fall into a trap?"

"Then, let's focus on those hidden rooms!"

……

In the following time, He Yuan searched for the room where Asuna was trapped in the tomb, while taking time to chat with Asuna by email.

After all, He Yuan knew that in a claustrophobic space, "quietness" itself was also a great terror.

Judging from Asuna's reply, He Yuan even felt that the reason why Asuna failed to reply to her email immediately was probably because the monster that refreshed every 10 minutes was used as a means to relieve fear.

Otherwise, after He Yuan sent the email, he received the latest reply in less than 3 minutes.

"Oh? Is it here?"

On the third floor of the tomb, He Yuan, who searched for a long time, finally found another secret room.

Unlike the other chambers, the door to this chamber is locked.

"Boom boom boom!"

"Can you hear me? Asuna!"

He Yuan reached out and knocked on the red and black gate, and shouted.

"Boom boom boom!"

After a while, a response came from inside the door, and He Yuan's email also flashed.

"I can hear the knock on the door, are you outside?"

"Hey~"

After reading Asuna's email, He Yuan understood that the door seemed to have a sound insulation effect.

"Well, it's me."

"But I guess you have to wait a little longer. The door is locked. I have to look around for the key."

"Ok!"

After closing the email, He Yuan started to kill the nearby mobs, and continued to search for the rest of the secret rooms.

Because according to the strategy, for a locked door like this, the key must be on the special monsters around or in the treasure chest in a certain secret room.

In fact, He Yuan felt that if he used his "mind", he could completely destroy the lock.

However, this is a game after all, and He Yuan is not sure if he uses such a "bug" method to violently destroy the lock, whether the locked door will be opened.

Therefore, in order to be on the safe side, He Yuan would rather spend more time to abide by Kayaba Akihiko's game rules.

……

"Boom!"

As the lock on the door shattered into pieces, the door trapped in Asuna's secret room was finally opened.

"well enough?"

"Ah."

He Yuan looked at Asuna, and except for a little messy hair, he really didn't feel that Asuna's spirit was hurt.

"Give!"

Taking out the "Majestic Rapier + 2" in the backpack and trading it to Asuna, He Yuan couldn't help asking: "Hey Asuna, aren't you leveling with Kirito? What? How could you be left alone in such a dangerous place?"

After accepting He Yuan's trade request, Asuna paused after hearing He Yuan's words: "I don't blame Kirito-kun. He said that with our current level, it would be dangerous to level up on the fifth floor of Aincrad. , so I want to strengthen the weapons first to increase my strength."

"Not strong enough?"

A trace of confusion flashed in He Yuan's heart.

If I want to become faster and stronger, I have to speed up the progress of Aincrad's strategy and gain more experience points to upgrade.

However, if you are like this, where will the remaining 7000 players in this game be placed?
With his current strength, He Yuan feels that even if he is the No. 20 fifth-level defensive boss, he can just pass it. If he works harder, he can completely conquer Aincrad to No. 30 within a month. [-] floors.

However, when you conquer that kind of floor, how many of the players in the conquering group will be left?
Even if it is Kirito, it is estimated that he can only walk around before the [-]th floor in a month, and if he is a little careless, there may be a life-and-death crisis.

At that time, the huge gap may make most players lose the desire to move on, and wait for He Yuan to conquer the entire game.

It is also possible that they want to do their part, level up desperately, and want to fight in front of the floor boss again, and then, blindly chasing after them will make them unable to see the difference in strength, and eventually die in the hands of more powerful monsters. Or be crushed by the gap in reality...

It seems that I have helped them, but because my attack speed is too fast, their development cannot keep up. Is the attack speed of the floor really good for them?
When this game is without Kirito, without Asuna, without the strategy team, then, is this game still the Sword Art Online in my mind?

……

In the end, He Yuan smiled in relief.

I'm too selfish, if things really develop in my own way, then countless fans will cry, right?
