Infinite Trial from the Giant

"careful!"

Loki's voice had just come out when Xia Tian had already turned his head to the side at a speed beyond his imagination, perfectly avoiding the sudden bite of the kobold.

Hearing the sound of fangs and sounds coming from his ears, Xia Tian, ​​who remained sideways, suddenly thrust his elbow upwards and hit the dog-headed man directly in the chin. The next moment, the dog-headed man, who had already jumped up because of the biting attack, was actually knocked away by Xia Tian's elbow.

The armor blade turned flexibly in his hand, and Xia Tian, ​​holding the knife in his backhand, straightened his body and stabbed the knives at the knives when they fell. Even though he didn't use sword skills, the knife went straight into the knives' still half-open mouth, completely draining the little blood that was left.

"What are you daydreaming about? Let's go. You don't want to wait for it to refresh, do you?"

The words that came to his ears brought Loki back to his senses. Looking at Xia Tian's back as he walked forward, he hurriedly followed.

"Could you please not do this kind of thing next time? It really irritates other people's hearts."

"Okay, let's try a different way of attacking next time."

The voices of the two people echoed throughout the maze.

……

As the only ogre that needed to be watched out for in the maze area of ​​the first level was unable to pose any threat to Xia Tian and Loki, it took them just one morning to successfully reach the fourth level.

"That mouse has made a fortune this time." Loki took a sip of water, then looked at his map data and sighed.

Xia Tian and Loki were in a safe room on the fourth level. This kind of safe room was specially used for players to rest in the maze area. The four corners of the wall were decorated with distinctive colors, which could be seen at a glance from a long distance. Although it was used for rest, there was actually nothing inside except the cold floor. Not only that, even if the monsters outside could not come in, the sounds they made when they moved could be clearly transmitted into the safe room, as if the walls of the room were made of paper. In addition, the safe room could only be used for one hour, so if ordinary people wanted to take a nap here, forget it.

Xia Tian and Loki had no intention of sleeping here, they just wanted to have lunch.

"If you don't want to give her all, you can just give her part of it. Anyway, she didn't ask for much exploration progress." Xia Tian responded while eating the burger in his hand.

"Forget it. If I contribute the map data, it can also help others and speed up the exploration progress." Loki didn't have this plan. He just wanted to leave the game as soon as possible. It would be better to share the map and other things.

"Perhaps she also thought so. She first sold the map data at a higher price, and then used the return method to induce others to hand over the subsequent exploration data to her. In this way, she could quickly achieve the goal of integrating the current exploration progress of everyone. If she just wanted to make money, she wouldn't need to do this."

Loki looked at it with some surprise, and then said: "It seems that if you are also a closed beta player, you may become the second information dealer."

"I have no interest in that sort of thing."

"That's right." Loki nodded, and then changed the subject: "Speaking of Xia Tian, ​​I thought about it last night, let's build a guild later."

"guild?"

When Loki mentioned this word, Xia Tian immediately thought of the name of a guild - the Knights of the Blood Alliance. It was founded by Heathcliff, that is, Kayaba Akihiko himself, and was known as the strongest guild in the entire Sword Art Online.

Xia Tian had certainly considered creating a guild. If he could find some powerful players to form a guild and have them cooperate with him, it would be very helpful in completing the extra goals. However, there were certain problems with creating a guild. The first was the method. Xia Tian only knew the names of guilds such as the Blood Alliance Knights, the Holy Dragon Alliance, and even the Moonlit Black Cats, but he didn't know how they were created. The second was the members. Like Liz, if he wanted to find a companion, Xia Tian definitely didn't want to find someone who would be a burden, and it was not easy to find more reliable members.

To sum up, Xia Tian temporarily gave up the idea of ​​creating a guild and planned to strengthen himself first and do research later. However, he did not expect Loki to take the initiative to propose this.

"Yes, although the two of us can explore independently now, even if we don't talk about the floor bosses, once the floors are higher, the advantages of the closed beta players will completely disappear. At that time, the strength of just the two of us will be totally insufficient." Obviously, Loki didn't think that he and Xia Tian could become those powerful lone rangers.

Of course, Xia Tian himself does not agree with the Lone Ranger's code of conduct. Although the benefits of being a Lone Ranger are high, the chance of dying is also high. Not everyone is Kirito. It is definitely safer and more secure to be with trustworthy companions than to be alone.

"Can we create a guild now?" Since Loki had brought up the idea that had been put on hold, Xia Tian naturally took it up.

Xia Tian originally thought that Loki's bringing it up at this time meant that he knew how to create a guild, but Loki was stunned and shook his head: "It's not possible now. In fact, I don't know how to create a guild. I just heard that you have to wait until you reach the third level and accept the task of creating a guild before you can create a guild."

However, since Loki has proposed it now, he will not talk nonsense. He continued: "Even so, we can still form a guild. Completing the guild mission is just a formality."

Formal form...I see...

Listening to Loki's words, Xia Tian immediately understood what he meant.

"If we can find like-minded companions now, even if we haven't completed the guild mission, we can still get together as a team and work together. So the key is to find companions who meet the requirements." Obviously, it's not just Xia Tian. Loki also doesn't seem to want to just find some burdens to join, which saves Xia Tian a lot of worries.

But this is understandable. Loki's purpose is very clear, which is to pass the level and return to the real world, so it is impossible for him to look for some burdens as companions.

Don't you want to be a burden?

Several figures flashed through Xia Tian's mind, including the person Liz mentioned, the deputy leader of the Blood Alliance Knights, who was named Flash.
