The Advent of the Infinite King

Tiabell stood up and left after hearing that.The place they are in is a special corner of the venue. Because of the design problem, most of the outside can be seen here without any obstacles, but from the inside of the venue, they can’t see clearly what is here. It was specially arranged by Xie Chen. from.

After Tiabell left, Asuna looked at Xie Chen suspiciously, and asked, "Is someone really looking for Tiabell?"

Chapter 190 Seven

Xie Chen said, "Maybe."

Asuna looked at him helplessly, then shook her head.

And Tia Bellu, who had gone out, found no one looking for him after walking for a while, and suddenly realized that this must be what Xie Chen said on purpose, because he didn't want him to disturb their world of two people.Tiabellu sighed, then turned around and walked to the other side. After sitting for a while, she felt a little hungry, so she went to eat something.

It's just that he hadn't taken two steps when someone came over and said anxiously, "Deputy head, something happened!"

Seeing his anxious expression, Tiabell knew that something had really happened, so he stretched out his hand and pressed down, saying: "This is not a place to talk, follow me." After finishing speaking, Tiabel With a serious face, he led him outside.

Randomly looking for a room next to him, Tiabellu closed the door and said, "Let's talk about something now."

The person who came to look for Tiabell was one of the two people who usually followed Shengye, who was responsible for some external intelligence work. He said to Tiabel with a serious expression: "Deputy head, just received the news that someone discovered I defeated the maze guard boss and made a strategy first, but the result seems to be not very good.”

Tia Bell frowned and said, "What's going on?"

That person reported the situation to Tia Bell.It turned out that the person who discovered the BOSS was a front-line raiding team. I don't know why, maybe because he wanted to prove himself, so he didn't announce the news. He found some people and went to raid the BOSS by himself.Not many of them have participated in the raid battle. In addition to their lack of experience and lack of strength, although they managed to defeat the boss this time, they suffered huge losses and suffered heavy casualties.

After listening to what happened, Tia Bellu frowned tightly, and said: "You should go back to this matter first, don't say it, and pay attention to the follow-up of the matter."

"Yes." The man replied, and then pushed the door and went out.Tia Bell stood there thinking for a while, then walked away and found Xie Chen and the others again.

Xie Chen had seen Tiabellu being stopped by someone before, and he was a little strange. He just said something casually, but he didn't expect it to be right.Unexpectedly, Tiabel came back frowning after a while.

As soon as he came back, Tiabellu said: "Xie Chen, Asuna, something happened." His voice was low.

Asuna was startled, and quickly asked, "What's wrong? Is it the guild's business?" As she said that, she glanced outside, and found that everyone was having fun as before, and it didn't seem like anything had happened. .

Tia Bellu sat down, shook his head and said, "It's not the guild, it's an accident on the front line."

Asuna was a little relieved when she heard that something was wrong with the guild, and then asked, "What's the matter?"

Tia Bell simply told what he had just learned. After listening, Xie Chen and Asuna looked at each other and then separated.Xie Chen leaned back, with an unclear look in his eyes, and a smile appeared on the corner of his mouth, and said, "Do they think that their strength is enough to deal with the boss? It seems that our previous strategy was too fast to give them the illusion that the boss is easy to defeat." Be it." There was not much sympathy or regret for those people in his words, but it seemed to say that they were beyond their control.

But the other two didn't care. After getting along for so long, they knew Xie Chen's character very well.

Asuna frowned, and the emotions in her eyes were surging. She felt sorry for those people, couldn't bear it, and she also felt dissatisfied with those people like Xie Chen. Why didn't she announce the news or when she was more confident? How about a strategy?Just like that, he lost his life in vain.

"Where are the others? Are you okay?" Asuna asked softly.

Tia Bellu said: "The specific news is still unclear, but I have made it clear for them to continue to pay attention to this matter."

Asuna pursed her lips, wondering what she was thinking.Xie Chen lowered his eyes, then raised his eyes to Tia Bellu, and said, "Since the incident has already happened, we can only accept it and learn from it. It is useless to be sad and regret it." Then he put his hand on Asuna's shoulder , the voice was white and soft, "So, Asuna, don't feel uncomfortable in your heart, it has nothing to do with you."

Asuna looked at Xie Chen's concerned eyes, and reluctantly nodded: "Yes."

A hint of helplessness flashed across Xie Chen's eyes. He knew that Asuna was the most soft-hearted, and she didn't want anyone to die. Although she didn't participate in this matter and had nothing to do with her, she still felt bad and became depressed.Wanting to know that this is her nature, I can only wait for her to recover slowly.All he could do was stay by her side and comfort her.

Patting Asuna on the shoulder, Xie Chen looked at Tia Bell and asked, "Has this matter spread?"

Tia Bell shook his head: "Probably not yet. I just heard from the intelligence department. I told him to keep the news away for the time being. But although it hasn't spread, there should be quite a few of them." People know about it, like the blood alliance, the federation should have already received the news. By tomorrow morning, it should have spread."

Xie Chen nodded, rubbed his chin, and said, "It's fine not to say it for now." His eyes flicked across the faces of the members outside. Today is a rare guild gathering, and it would be a pity to ruin it. Wait until tomorrow Of course they know.

Tia Bellu and Xie Chen mean the same thing, he asked: "This happened, what are you going to do?"

Xie Chen raised his eyebrows: "How to do it? What to do and how to do it. Wait until tomorrow to see how other people react." The other people he mentioned were actually Heathcliff.He felt that Heathcliff would definitely not be ignorant of this matter, and it was even possible that he had done something that led to the current result.

Facts have proved that Xie Chen's intuition is still very accurate.After receiving the news reported by the abode, Heathcliff didn't react on the surface, just kept silent for a while, and then asked people to go out.

Heathcliff leaned back in the chair, his eyes drooped slightly, and a smile appeared on the corner of his mouth, and he said in a low voice, "What a bunch of stupid people."

Chapter 190: Common Raiders

It turned out that the incident this time was caused by Heathcliff.Xie Chen saw the strange smile that flickered from the corner of Heathcliff's mouth, and he understood it.

Xie Chen didn't really care much about his plan, as long as it didn't hinder him from completing the final task.Xie Chen's eyes drooped slightly, his fingers moved lightly, thinking silently in his heart.

The current scene is the second day of Halloween. After the news spread that someone had suffered heavy losses in the raid, they spontaneously gathered together to discuss an informal meeting about this matter.

Heathcliff said in a deep voice: "Everyone already knows what happened. For those warriors who sacrificed their lives, I would like to express my deep condolences and pay my respects to them." Feel sorry for them in general.

The others also lowered their heads, no matter what they thought in their hearts, their attitudes here are similar.Xie Chen lowered his head slightly, with a cold expression, making it impossible to know what he was thinking.

After everyone raised their heads again, Xie Chen said: "It has already happened, I believe everyone has their own thoughts in their hearts. Although this strategy is barely a success, the consequences are too disastrous. ,what do y'all think?"

Xie Chen's words aroused popular approval, a man nodded and said: "The head of the Demon King is right, it's better not to have such a thing happen in the future."

"But how?" asked one.

"After this incident happened, it should serve as a warning. Maybe the incident with Lace will not return to you." Someone said hesitantly.

"There is no shortage of self-righteous people everywhere. I think they just saw that the previous strategy was too easy, so they thought they could do the same thing. In the end, hehehe, let me see, people who are overconfident just let them do it. What, without this, there will be other things, they just have to suffer on their own, don't worry about it." Someone mocked unceremoniously.

This man's words actually expressed the true thoughts in many people's hearts. They were silent for a while without speaking.

Xie Chen smiled and said, "But we're not sitting here to think of a way out, so if you have any ideas, just speak up and listen, and it's better to solve it as soon as possible."

Heathcliff looked around, and unexpectedly met Heathcliff's dishonesty, Xie Chen twitched his lips, and said, "Is there any good solution, Captain Heathcliff?"

Heathcliff's expression remained unchanged, and he said: "To prevent similar incidents and reduce casualties, we still need to unify our offensive operations."

"What does Commander Heathcliff mean?" Xie Chen narrowed his eyes slightly, as if he knew the purpose of Heathcliff planning this outing.

"The current strategy is not unified. In the end, each guild will take turns leading the strategy for the boss. Although the speed is good, it seems inappropriate in other aspects." Heathcliff looked around and turned his voice Yang Qi said to everyone, "Everyone, we are now in a virtual game world. Don't become slack because the days here are getting more and more comfortable. Our goal is to capture the entire Aincrad, and eventually Return to reality. So the approach in other games is not suitable here. What we have to do is to unite and jointly attack. Only in this way can we achieve success at the fastest speed and return to reality.”

As soon as Heathcliff's words came out, everyone's mood changed. They wanted to look around and ask the other people's opinions with their eyes, and there were low, slightly noisy discussions at the scene.

After a while, someone said: "Captain Heathcliff is right. We have been here for a long time, and almost forgot what our original intention is. I agree with Captain Heathcliff. Joint strategy, in this way we can combine forces and reduce the danger again. Besides, we have done this before.”

"You're right, I agree with this approach." Someone agreed.

"It doesn't matter to us, but we are also happy to participate in a few strategy battles by mistake." This is the person who said the ridicule just now.The original gatekeeper bosses were almost all eliminated by those large guilds, especially the two top guilds, Xie Chen's Devil Knights and Heathcliff's Blood Knights, there were really not many left for others , which indirectly led to the inertia of other people and the misunderstanding of the difficulty of the strategy battle.

Xie Chen smiled slowly, looked at Heathcliff with deep meaning in his eyes, and said: "Since Captain Heathcliff already has an idea, I won't say anything more. This idea is a good one. On behalf of the Demon Knights, I agree."

"My lord Demon King and Heathcliff really understand righteousness, and they can hand over so many benefits to share." Some people commented in a low voice.

"Do you think everyone is the same as you? Those two are on the side of all players. In order to get out of here as soon as possible, they naturally don't take this matter to heart."

"That's right, but I think life in SAO is more suitable for me. When I think about returning to reality and facing unemployment, I don't want to leave at all."

"You can't say that. Although the reality is very stressful, this place is fake after all." The person who answered the words hesitated, but it was not difficult to hear that he still agreed with the person just now.

Xie Chen's hearing is excellent, and he also heard this small conversation. He smiled slightly. Sure enough, just like what he said to Asuna before, many people no longer set the strategy game to return to reality. up.

This simple informal meeting ended with the approval of Heathcliff's proposal.

Xie Chen returned to the headquarters, summoned someone to talk about the results this time, and then made some corresponding actions to adapt to the changing situation.

Sitting on the side, Tia Bell shook his head and said: "Actually, I think the previous model is quite good, but this incident can't be regarded as not happening. Let's do what Heathcliff said first, If not, we don’t do it.”

Chapter 190 Nine Intuition

As an important member of the Raiders team, Kageyama is also here, and said: "I think Heathcliff's proposal is really useless. Although a joint Raider can bring together cutting-edge forces as he said, it doesn't mean that there are too many people. Efficiency will be high. It’s impossible just to run in with them to the length of cooperation between us.”

Yingshan's words aroused the approval of everyone, but Xie Chen waved his hand and said: "I have done cooperative strategies before, and later the guild gradually became bigger and then slowly turned into solo strategies. Xianzi just returned to the previous demons, that's all. You don’t have to worry too much about it, you can do whatever you want, we have to worry about specific matters, and you can just follow the instructions.”

Asuna frowned slightly: "Actually, this is also good. It allows them to participate in person and know the real difficulty of the strategy battle. Even if they don't do this in the future, it can also make them give up the idea of ​​private strategy." security considerations.

At this time, Tiabello, who was standing aside and listening quietly, spoke, he said hesitantly: "I always feel that this time is a bit strange."

Xie Chen frowned and asked, "What's strange? Tell me."

Kirito frowned, shook his head and said, "It's just a feeling. It's been there since the beginning of the meeting, and it became more and more obvious until the end." At this moment, Kirito suddenly found that everyone here was looking at him, Then added, "This is just my personal feeling, just talk about it, you don't need to care about it. Things like this are obviously for everyone's benefit, so my feeling should be wrong"

Before Tongren finished speaking, Xie Chen said directly: "Tiren, you can just tell me what or who you think is strange." Then Xie Chen smiled slightly and looked at Xie Chen.

Tongren looked at Xie Chen with some encouraging eyes, hesitated for a moment, and said his thoughts: "I think Captain Heathcliff seems a bit strange. Oh, my feeling is a bit inconsistent." Thinking about it Kirito frowned when he accidentally saw Heathcliff's strange smile.

As soon as his words came out, the others asked in amazement: "Captain Heathcliff? Is that him?" There was suspicion and surprise in the words.

"It's hard to believe, right? I also think my feeling is wrong." Kirito scratched his head and said.

At this time, Xie Chen, Asuna, and Tia Bellu looked at each other and understood.They knew Heathcliff's identity and what was wrong with him since they were here, and this time they were also thinking about using their tricks to see what he wanted to do.It's just that he didn't expect Kirito to be so keen, and he could still feel it when Heathcliff's image was managed so well.

Is it really the protagonist's treatment?Xie Chen rubbed his chin, thinking playfully.Then he put this idea aside, and just said to them: "Sometimes we have to trust our intuition. Intuition is a very mysterious thing, and there is no harm in believing it, don't you think so?"

The words Xie Chen said with a smile that was full of hints made them a little confused. Could it be that there is something wrong with Heathcliff?They frowned, hesitated for a while, and then made a decision, trusting the words of their team leader.No matter how you say it, Xie Chen will not harm them, and it is for their own good to say such things.In addition, many of them know or have personally organized Xie Chen's attention to Heathcliff and the Knights of the Blood Knights, and they have a more objective impression of thinking than ordinary players, so making such a decision will not be a problem at all. What pressure or hesitation.

He silently strengthened his vigilance against Heathcliff in his heart, and the team members left after Xie Chen finished speaking.Tongren seemed to have something to ask Xie Chen, but after thinking about it, he left first.Before leaving, Xie Chen stopped him and said, "Tirto, you sit in the lounge on the side for a while, and I will find you later." He knew what Tongren wanted to ask, so rather than let this matter He himself found that it would be better for him to tell him first, of course it would not be the real fact.

After Tongren left, Xie Chen leaned back and sighed: "It seems that Heathcliff is about to make a move, and he can't help but want to make a move."

Asuna frowned: "What the hell is he trying to do? It's not enough to trap us here, he's even involved in it himself."

Xie Chen said: "Anyway, it won't be a good thing. From now on, we must strengthen our vigilance, and I will personally lead people to the next strategy battle."

Tia Belle nodded: "This is indeed the safest way. Even if there is any accident, you can respond in time. But you still have to pay attention to safety. After all, he is different from us. Maybe there is something special about him. The right, you will be forced in time."

Thinking of this possibility, both Tiabell and Asuna frowned.Asuna said worriedly: "Otherwise, you will"

Xie Chen interrupted directly, and said, "Asuna, you know this is impossible."

Asuna swallowed back the words that followed, and looked at Xie Chen worriedly: "Then"

Xie Chen smiled consolingly and said, "Don't worry, he won't go too far. If he wants to get rid of us here, how will he play in the future? Didn't he come here safely for so long. "

Xie Chen said a few words to reassure Tiabell and Asuna, and thinking about Xie Chen's special ability, Asuna's expression relaxed again, so she said: "I want to fight with you in the strategy battle." You go together."

Xie Chen frowned, and directly refused: "This time, at the beginning, I don't know what the specific situation is, so you can stay outside with peace of mind." Asuna wanted to say something else, but seeing Xie Chen's irresistible gaze, she thought He swallowed back what he wanted to say.

Asuna and Tia Bellu left respectively, Xie Chen got up to find Kirito.

Seeing Xie Chen come in, Tongren stood up, nodded and said: "Head, you are here."
