The Advent of the Infinite King

Xie Chen thought in his heart, in fact, this should be the normal speed, even faster than the speed in the original plot.After silently complaining a few words, he continued: "But don't be too hasty, just follow the steps, and be careful that you will make mistakes when you are eager."

"We all understand this, so the free time now is used to do other things, practice life skills, talk about love and so on. But a lonely person like me can only go to the pub for a stroll. "Tia Belle said leisurely, "I also want to find a girl to fall into her warm embrace, what a pity"

"What a pity?" Xie Chen raised his eyebrows.

"It's a pity that there is no suitable girl." Tia Bell replied.

"Don't blame us, who made you look so high? Aren't there many girls out there who are courting you." Xie Chen smiled and said.

Tia Bell shook his head helplessly: "This kind of thing still has to be resigned, I'd better go to the pub, maybe I can meet it."

Xie Chen shrugged, did not answer but changed the subject: "Since your current level has reached this point, the new strategy will not start for a while, so I decided to give you a task."

"What task?" Yingshan said quickly.

"It is to separate you, and then send them to each team individually, and lead them to level up and hunt. If you complete the task, you will have contribution points." Xie Chen briefly explained the task.

The eyes of the people below lit up and said, "Contribution points, that's great. When will it start?"

Xie Chen gave them a funny look, and then took out a list, which had already arranged the team to go to and the tasks to be done.After sending the task to them respectively, Xie Chen said: "All you have to do is here, and the task will start tomorrow. Take a look and ask if you don't understand anything."

The members of the Raiders couldn't wait to look at their missions, and found that there was no difficulty at all. What they had to do was actually very easy for their level, as long as they paid attention to the team members who followed, so they had no objections. They all quickly concluded this task. Of course, there are also reasons for the relatively generous rewards for contribution points.

While they were watching, Xie Chen said: "The people in these teams have been notified, and they all have potential. Pay attention, maybe there will be your future teammates in it. So don't just use it as a contribution point." Means, understand? There will be additional rewards for the best performers."

"Understood, Captain!" The members of the Raiders replied excitedly, and then began to think about how to train the newcomers after meeting them, completely overturning the previous idea of ​​just leading people to level up.

Seeing them so active, Xie Chen smiled slightly, then turned to ask Tongren who was sitting not far away: "Tirto, what are you going to do?"

Tongren was stunned for a moment, and said, "I can do it."

Xie Chen said: "There just happens to be another team, so I'll leave it to you. That's the task, please take a look." He sent the message to Kirito as he spoke.

Tongren had no idea about this matter at first, seeing that Xie Chen handed it over to him, he accepted it by the way.In fact, he is really tired from staying at the front line now, and his level will not change for a while, so it's good to agree, and it can be regarded as relaxing.But when I saw the task content sent by Xie Chen, I was still a little stunned, then smiled, and said to Xie Chen: "Thank you."

Xie Chen waved his hand: "It's nothing, seeing that you are idle is also idle."

The next day, when those members of the Moonlight Black Cat Group were still discussing what kind of people their team would come to serve as guides, they saw Kirito walking over with a smile in his eyes, and said hello to them: "Yo, hello everyone. I am your new guide."

Regardless of whether it is the Devil I Am Group, the other members on the front line are almost in the same situation, but not as many and serious as them.So after a while, the proposal to speed up the strategy was brought up again.

At this time, the members of the Devil Knights are not idle like others or practicing leveling with half the effort.Under Xie Chen's arrangement, the ranks of their lower-level personnel were quickly promoted.

Several guilds did the same thing as them, but they all kept silent and didn't publicize it as if they had discussed it.

During this period, Xiechen Guild’s new aggregation equipment was released one after another, and almost all of them were exchanged for them as soon as they came out. They were very popular because a small part of the raw materials were sold, so there were only four finished products. .Those who stayed on the front line all the year round got it. Kirito missed it because of his slow movement. He couldn't help but sighed, and he didn't recover until he got the "Interpreter".

After Xie Chen knew about it, he asked about it with interest. He didn't expect that Kirito could still get the original weapon when the plot was so different from the original one. It's amazing.

Because of the improvement of the overall strength, the progress of the frontline strategy has also increased, and because of the needs of the people in the strategy group, the progress has been consciously accelerated. When the strategy reached the 58th floor, it has only been more than a month since now. Before dealing with the final maze guard boss, they have an area boss to deal with first, the ice dragon.

Song of Boss is not very difficult, but the rewards are still very generous, so they still get their attention.Unlike the original plot where all their actions were for clearing the level, their current state is closer to the usual game. There is still competition among the unions in the strategy group. The rewards brought by this boss are also the same. is the object of their competition.

Chapter 170 VII Danaku

However, Xie Chen did not go in person, and Tia Bellu was leading the team.The same goes for the Knights of the Blood Order. Heathcliff is still on the front line, led by Ramos, the deputy head.After secret negotiations and competition, the final boss still fell into the hands of Tia Bellu, who took the first step and took down the boss.

Now that it's a fact, Ramos didn't bother or secretly sabotage it. The relationship between the two guilds is a bit strange. They are competitors, but they maintain a strange tacit understanding. I also knew this, so I made a decisive move.Although bosses are rare, they are just like that. This time it is your turn, next time it will be my turn.

After Xie Chen knew about it, he didn't say anything. After discussing with Tia Bellu for a few words, he refocused on the front line. "Danaku, the level of the best weather setting, I really want to feel what it looks like." Xie Chen said to himself.

Tiabellu didn't hear what he said, so he asked, "What did you say?"

Xie Chen shook his head: "It's nothing, I'm thinking about the next level. Looking at the progress, the strategy battle should be the latest thing. Tell them to get nervous."

"Okay, when do you think it will be?" Tiabel nodded, and then asked.

"Try to complete the strategy within a week, and then I will give you a vacation." Xie Chen dropped a sentence.

"It's a deal, I'll tell them right away." Tia Bell left with a smile.

Just as Xie Chen predicted, after three days, the boss's room was discovered, and then the official strategy was put on the agenda.Two days after the boss was discovered, the strategy battle officially started. This time the strategy was no different from the previous ones, it was still a one-off process, although the process was a bit tortuous and there were almost casualties.But fortunately those few people were fine in the end.

It's just that Xie Chen's heart was not so relaxed. He noticed the abnormal look in Heathcliff's eyes.Therefore, those accidents were all under his control, and it was his intention that such things happened.

Is this the start?Finally couldn't bear it anymore.Xie Chen thought to himself, he didn't expect Heathcliff to make a move so early this time, but it looked more like a temptation.It should be because of his own reasons that he made these actions.

Xie Chen silently considered Heathcliff's move this time and the meaning behind it in his heart, he should be vigilant, Xie Chen secretly noticed, the heart that was relaxed because of being too peaceful before should also be tense again Woke up, Xie Chen really wants to know, what exactly does this last big boss want to do?

It's just that Heathcliff didn't do anything secretly like this time, as if there was no such thing at all, and directed the battle with all his heart.

In the current situation, Xie Chen and him sometimes do not conduct strategic battles together. After all, it is not good to have two commanders in one battle.As for Heathcliff's star madness, Xie Chen only listened to what the team members said, and he didn't know the specifics.

So maybe the next strategy battle can be planned, and he wants to see Heathcliff's situation in person.

Aincrad ninth floor, Danaku.It's farm style, with the best weather settings.Xie Chen lay on the grass and stretched.

"Sure enough, it's the best weather setting. The sun feels a lot warmer, and the temperature is just right for sleeping." Xie Chen closed his eyes as he muttered.

Not far away, Asuna came over, sat down beside him, and asked, "Why did you fall asleep here?"

Xie Chen didn't open his eyes, but said, "I didn't sleep, I just rested for a while. The weather here is very good, don't you think?"

"It seems to be better than other places, and it feels very comfortable." Asuna said while holding her chin, then turned her head to look at Xie Chen, "But don't forget that there is still something to do, lie down for a while and get up. "

Xie Chen frowned slightly: "Really, it's so difficult to enjoy the sunshine and breeze."

Asuna pursed her lips and smiled: "After Tiabel's vacation is over, you can lie down however you want. But now you'd better get up with me and go to work honestly."

Xie Chen was helpless, sighed and sat up, opened his eyes, scratched his head and said, "Okay, I'll listen to you."

Not far from them, there was another person, like Xie Chen, lying under a tree, the corners of his mouth were slightly raised because he was very comfortable.

When Xie Chen and Asuna passed by, they saw him.Xie Chen frowned slightly, then walked over.

"Isn't that Kirito-kun? Why are you sleeping outside like you, don't you know it's very dangerous." Asuna said.Then he walked over with Xie Chen.

As soon as they got close to Tongren, he opened his eyes. When he saw them, Tongren sat up and said hello: "Master, deputy leader, good afternoon."

"Good afternoon, Kirito-kun." Asuna replied with a smile.

Xie Chen walked over, touched his chin and looked down at Tongren, and said, "You kid, you will enjoy it."

"Ah" Kirito stroked his hair and said with a smile: "Danaku has the best weather settings, so it feels better to lie outside than indoors, and now it's a holiday, so I'm here when I have nothing to do Rest meeting. What about the head and deputy head?"

Xie Chen pretended to be dissatisfied and said: "Tirto, as my guard, you actually took a vacation alone, isn't it too irresponsible?"

"Uh, this. Then I will end my vacation now? Where are you going, leader? I will go with you." Kirito was a little embarrassed. In fact, he had forgotten that he was Xie Chen's guard, and scratched gently with his right index finger Touching his cheek, he said.

"Okay, Chen." Asuna came over, glanced at Xie Chen, and then said to Kirito, "Tirto, you can continue to take your vacation, and you can just come back to work after the vacation is over. If there is nothing wrong, we will I'll go first."

Chapter 170: Puppet?

Xie Chen had no choice but to say: "Well, you can continue to sleep, I'm leaving first. By the way, you must not really fall asleep, or if you are maliciously PKed, my guards will be gone."

Kirito nodded: "I will pay attention, thank you for your concern, head."

After Xie Chen and Asuna left, Kirito lay down again, extremely comfortable.

Asuna returned to the headquarters and began to deal with the daily affairs of the guild. Xie Chen ran out alone to collect some materials and do tasks by the way. Of course, the most important thing was to find the fragments of the long sword.

In the leveling area in the west, Xie Chen got a kind of medicinal herb, which was a raw material that Asuna said could be used as a condiment. There are quite a few seasonings or ingredients.

As Xie Chen collected these things, he gradually moved away from the original place and went deep into this leveling area.Suddenly found an entrance, thought for a while, and walked in.

The environment here is somewhat different from the outside, more like an autumn farm, a piece of golden grain swaying in the wind, which is very different from the green outside.

Xie Chen stood at the entrance with interest and looked at it for a while, then walked forward alone with a sword in his hand.When he walked along the country road for a certain distance, he saw a scarecrow. After approaching it, it suddenly changed from the item's logo to the red name, and became an active attacking monster!

The scarecrow was erected stiffly in the field, but now it suddenly became active, and ran towards Xie Chen.There were also two birds that were perched on it, and the strange thing was that there were still a few birds flying there, but there was no hostility at all, and they were still yellow.

Xie Chenyan froze and stood there waiting for the scarecrow to come.It was the two birds that attacked Xie Chen first, Xie Chen turned around, dodged the hard minions of the two birds and gave them a sword by the way, this sword cut off a third of their blood.

Xie Chen felt a little strange in his heart. Given his level, these two birds should have suffered more damage, but now it is only one-third, which is a bit abnormal.

But Xie Chen didn't think too much, because the scarecrow's attack had already appeared before his eyes.Xie Chen took a step forward and raised his sword to meet the branch that was attacked by the wind.The seemingly dry and fragile branch became extremely hard at this time. When Xie Chen cut it off, it felt like cutting off a sword.

The severed branches turned into broken pieces of light and disappeared, but the scarecrow didn't respond at all, and the amount of blood lost was different from Xie Chen's estimate, much less than usual.At this time, he swiped fiercely with the other arm.It is said to be an arm, but it is actually a branch full of branches.

Xie Chen's heart moved slightly, but he didn't dodge, but watched the sharp branch scratch his arm.Then the words "142" appeared on Xie Chen's body.

Xie Chen raised his brows and relaxed.Although the monster's defense might be a bit strange here, it still didn't violate SAO's level system MMO, and the damage caused to him by the scarecrow at level [-] just now was negligible.

After clarifying this point, Xie Chen simply and neatly dealt with the two birds and the scarecrow.When looking at the items they dropped, Xie Chen raised his eyebrows. These items seem to be a little different from other areas.

In addition to the fact that the dropped money is more unexpected than in the general hunting area, there are also some strange materials. Xie Chen seems to have never seen them before, so I plan to show them to Lisbeth after I go back to see if she knows what they are. thing.

Xie Chen kept going along this road, and the monsters on the road were almost all scarecrows, birds flying in the sky, and a few dog-type monsters appeared from time to time.

When Xie Chen felt that he was about to go back home, he saw a small wooden house, and there seemed to be someone inside, so he walked over.This kind of place should be an NPC, but the possibility of a humanoid monster is not ruled out.

Xie Chen stopped when he was two meters away from the door. At this time, he could see the situation inside through the half-open door.Simple table and chairs, and a bed.There are some farm tools piled up in the opposite corner.And the man dressed as a farmer sat there polishing the hoe in his hand.As if he noticed someone, he turned his head to look at Xie Chen, then turned his head back, and said lightly: "Young man, no one has come here for a long time, you came to see my old man, what's the matter?" ?” That’s right, this farmer is an old man with gray hair and a wisp of beard.

Xie Chen paused for a while, then took a few steps forward, entered the room, and said, "I came here by accident, may I ask who you are?" Although I don't know what kind of NPC this is, but experience Tell him there's nothing wrong with being polite.

The old man seemed to sigh, and then said: "That's right, then you should have nothing to do now, I have something I want to ask you to do, would you like it?"

Xie Chen smiled slightly. He really had a mission, so he asked, "I don't know what you want me to do, old man?"

The old man stood up slowly, walked past Xie Chen, and said to Xie Chen: "Young man, come with me."

Xie Chen followed behind him and left the house again.Then the old man said at this time: "Look at the sword in your hand, you should be a swordsman."

Xie Chen nodded: "Yes."

The old man continued: "That's right, otherwise you wouldn't be able to come here through the rice fields. You also met those puppets, right?"

puppet?Xie Chen thought for a while, and then realized that he should be talking about those straw people.So he nodded and said, "Yes, I met a lot on the road."

The old man turned around at this time, looked at Xie Chen, his eyes were a little excited, and his hands trembled slightly: "You defeated them all, didn't you?"

"Well, I came here after defeating them all. Is there anything strange about those puppets?" Xie Chen asked. In fact, he was only asking to comply with the requirements of the mission, so it would be easier to get the mission.
