The Trickster's Ninth Episode

"Well, Akira, that... I'm actually still a student, so although I really want to join the regular team, I'm worried that I won't be able to come later." Kirito said a little embarrassed.

This is what he just thought of just now, and he was happy to patronize him before.I'm only talking about this now, and I feel like I'm deceiving my friends.

"It's okay." Ren Amamiya patted Kirito's shoulder very freely, smiling brightly.

"I'm also a student party."

"Huh?" Kirito was stunned.

Second in the world, shouldn't he be a professional player?

He's a professional gamer and a virtual streamer, so this guy is actually a student?

"Okay, okay, chatting has been delayed for a long time, let's go there quickly." Yu Gonglian ignored Kirito's surprise, and said to everyone.

It was indeed delayed for a while. Considering that the story of the world would definitely not stop waiting for a certain person, it was not too late. The four of them pressed the send button one after another to confirm, and disappeared in place as a stream of data.

There was almost no time to read the picture, and Ren Amameiya appeared in a corner of the central city square.

Sure enough, as he expected, his location was not inside the teleportation array in the central city square, but was assigned to a certain location on the periphery. Blank and Kirito were not by his side, and they must have dispersed during the teleportation.

Yu Gonglian immediately opened the friend list to check the location of Blank, but unexpectedly found that the coordinates of Blank and Blank were together, and they were not separated.

It seems that besides Amamiya Ren, there is still someone who is taking care of the blank in this game. This person is still an authority point, maybe it is Tetu?

At present, the entire central city plaza is crowded with players, and there are noisy discussions.

In fact, it is possible to chat privately in "Digital Gods". In the private chat mode, people outside the channel can only see the character's mouth moving, but cannot hear the sound.Such a noisy discussion means that a lot of people are chatting on the public frequency.

Of course, it may also be because you are new to the pit, and you don't know that there is such a setting as a private chat channel.

As for the possibility that some people may say that the private chat channel can decipher the content by reading lips.

Hmm... If you have to be such a professional eavesdropper to play a game, then you are amazing.

Because there were so many people that even moving became a problem, and the blank two were not separated due to the teleportation, so Amamiya Ren was not in a hurry to meet them.

Like most players, Ren Amamiya looked up at the phantom in the sky.

Then Yu Gonglian was stunned.Originally, the entire face of this huge human-shaped phantom was hidden inside the burqa, and it was not very clear from a distance.But when she got close, Yu Gonglian always felt that the face under the burqa was somewhat déjà vu.

It's not that the face is familiar, Yu Gonglian has never seen this face before in his impression, it's just that it has a sense of déjà vu.

The players were still sending over one after another, and it didn't take long, and it seemed that it was time.The person whose face was hidden under the burqa suddenly took off the hood on his head, revealing his long light purple hair.

Hey!

The moment she saw the image of this character clearly, Ren Amamiya suddenly remembered who it was.

"To all the people of Aincrad, I am the highest priest of the Axiom Church—Quinella."

As if reflecting Yu Gonglian's inner thoughts, the phantom of the woman in the sky spoke.

"Here, I would like to inform all classes in Aincrad that from now on, Aincrad will be blocked, and all personnel are prohibited from continuing to explore the lower realm. All roads leading to the lower realm, and even the teleportation circle will be blocked. "

"At the same time, the passages between the various classes will also be suspended, and no one is allowed to pass between the classes in any form."

As Quinila's words fell, a scarlet thunderbolt tore apart the originally imitated sky, and the huge thunderbolt fell on the inscription on the teleportation array in the central city square.

The incantation text that could have been transmitted between various levels dimmed and was blocked by a red light.

At the same time, the stairs that could have directly led to the upper floor were also covered by a huge barrier, and the whole building rose from the ground. From the false sky that was torn apart by the red thunder, one could see that the upper floors were gradually moving away from the lower world. .

If someone could stand outside Aincrad and watch this scene, every class of Aincrad would be separated.The channel is broken, the stratum rises to an unreachable height, and there is an enchantment interception, which almost cuts off the way to other strata fundamentally.

Those below cannot go up, and those above cannot come down.

And the female giant shadow who claimed to be Quinella also disappeared after the ban was announced.

The NPCs in Central City are visibly confused and terrified, while the players...they are only confused.

What the hell?What's the matter?What kind of plot is this?

For players who have only watched an opening animation and haven't even started the main plot, it is really confusing to make such a sudden move.

But if you listen carefully to the players introduced next to the opening animation, you may be able to find something wrong with this event.

Because in the background introduction, there is this border below Aincrad. On the one hand, it resists the attack of the dark realm, and on the other hand, it is also waiting for an opportunity to return to land.

Moreover, some of the resources used by Aincrad also need to be collected by the army, explorers and bounty hunters from the world below.

It can be said that Aincrad encouraged people to go under the floating island with the information revealed in the background of the game story.

Blocking the passage, first of all, cut off the supply and return of the troops below, and secondly, it closed itself, and also blocked the connection between various classes. No matter how you think about it, there is a big problem here.

If there are no surprises, this is probably the harbinger of the opening of the main line.

It's actually okay to unfold the plot in this way, and it's smooth to follow the normal logic.

It was that the phantom that appeared in the sky was actually Quinella, which made Amamiya Ren very concerned.

Quinella is the real name of the villain in the first half of the Sword Art Online UW chapter—【Adominus Doret".She is the highest priest of the Axiom Church. In a nutshell, this is a character who breaks the fourth wall as an NPC and leads to madness.

Ren Amamiya really didn't expect this character to appear here. Could it be that in the 1.0 plot, she is the final boss?

Don't be messy, don't be messy.I can't cook it in one pot (sad).

Although the extracted information makes Ren Amamiya feel very delicate, but from his current perspective as an [informed person], the main line of 1.0 may really be that the adventurers at the lowest level find a way to go to the top level to face Quinella .

At this point in the serious analysis, Yu Gonglian's face suddenly became weird.

This...isn't this still climbing a tower?

According to the current development, the main line of the game version 1.0 should be to find a way to go from the lowest level of Aincrad to the top level to investigate the truth of the blockade.

By the way, Aincrad in "Digital Gods" is not a hundred-story floating island.Aincrad here has only nine floors.

Although the appearance has not changed much from the original Aincrad, most of the space inside has been used to make equipment full of magical and scientific atmosphere.

For example, the generation of the virtual sky, the source of the floating power, and even the links connecting the various classes are all produced by these seemingly sci-fi and magical devices.

In short, although compared with the original design of climbing towers in the entire game, the current tower climbing gameplay seems to only cover one stage of the game plot, but this is still tower climbing!

Akihiko Kayaba, how obsessed are you with climbing towers? !

The ignorance of the players didn't last long, because soon they had something to do.

The sudden upheaval made the NPCs panic, but among these NPCs, the most anxious one at this time was the Adventurer's Association.

As mentioned earlier, there are troops stationed on the lower border of Aincrad, and at the same time there are explorers and bounty hunters.Unlike the army, adventurers and bounty hunters don't stay in the lower realm, and they all want to return to Aincrad in the end.

Now the road is blocked by an enchantment, which means that there will be a large number of adventurers and bounty hunters stranded in the lower realm and unable to return.

That will be a huge number of people, and the subsequent impact of this fact is also extremely serious.

Most importantly, the president of the Adventurer's Association was in the lower realm before and has not yet returned.

So the Adventurers Association began to recall the adventurers, and this naturally included players who had just joined the association in name.

As expected, Yu Gonglian received a message.

It was a message from the front desk lady who had received him at the Adventurer's Association before.

That's right, NPCs in this game can send you messages just like players, as long as the other party knows your digital ID.

The digital ID of the role is naturally included in the basic information entered before.

【Adventurer Akira, please go to the Adventurers Association Hall in Central City as soon as possible. 】

Very concise and concise information.

Well, let's find a place to meet up with Kirito blank first, and then go to the hall.

??gossip??

Writing live articles in daily articles is hard enough, why should I write game articles in live articles?

(in a daze...)

It's time to write fantasy adventures in the game text. (broken pot broken wrestling)

Chapter 130 Seven Happy Errand Time

(I had a fever the day before yesterday, but it is better today. I will try to update it, and try to update it today and tomorrow.)

Through the state of the team, the characteristics of the teammates will be displayed on the small map. I found Blank and Kirito, and then the four went to the Adventurer's Association together.

Hmm... kinda stuck.

There are really too many people. Although the number of virtual helmets currently released is limited, this headset is currently equipped with a "Digigo Gods". In other words, people who buy helmets are basically rushing to this game.

This number is indeed a bit too much for an Adventurer's Guild Hall.

"Brother, you can adjust the character collision in the game settings." Bai looked at the three people standing in front of the crowd, and said proactively.

"Huh? Is that so?" Umiya Ren was only concerned with the study of volume determination and pain adjustment before, but didn't pay attention to this.

The three of Ren Amamiya opened the setting menu according to Bai's guidance, and then saw that the model collision between players can be set. It can be set to not collide with other players, or it can be set to only interact with teammates or friends.

Amamiya Ren's first reaction was, wouldn't this solve the problem that the player might be harassed? He couldn't even hook his shoulders and grab his arms to strike up a conversation, so he could just ignore the opponent and walk away.

The senior lone wolf rejoices.

As for why Amamiya Ren's first reaction was this... Well...

After changing the settings, a group of people became piercers within the range of the player, and went directly through the crowd to the inside of the clubhouse.

"Hiss... This feeling is a bit creepy." Sora looked disgusted, as if he had goosebumps.

Although the model collision is turned off, he can still see people. If he passes directly through a person's body, there will still be visual feedback.Of course, the inside of the player is actually a data flow, and there will be no discordant things, but even so, it is still a bit uncomfortable for Sora and Shiro.

"Acting like this... It will be difficult if you get used to it. Will you see people bumping into you when you walk in reality?" Kirito, whose symptoms of social fear are much lighter than Blank, is concerned about something else On the one hand.

"You don't have to worry about that." When it came up, it was Ren Amamiya's turn to speak. He had talked with Yasen about these hard-core topics. "Although complete immersion can indeed leave residual effects on the human brain, the game has layered consciousness. In other words, after logging out of this game, players will not feel a gap due to changes in attribute values, like If you can jump three meters high in the game, you will think that you can jump three meters high in reality. This kind of habitual consciousness will not exist."

In fact, this sense of gap is a very terrible thing. It is easy to turn people into waste who only want to stay in the virtual world and do not want to stay in the real world. If it is not handled well, it will become the key to open the dystopian society.

"To put it simply, this game seems to let the player have an extremely lucid shallow dream. After waking up from this shallow dream, it will not have an impact on the player's consciousness."

"Uh...Although I don't understand, it means don't worry, right?" Kirito concluded after listening to Amamiya Ren's explanation with confused eyes.

Ren Amamiya shrugged noncommittally. It is normal for Kirito in the new era of pure cuteness to not understand these things, just need to know the conclusion.

I found the front desk lady who called me over, and there was a particularly obvious icon on the other side's head that could hand in the task.

"Hello, new adventurers. You should already know that a major event that affected the entire Aincrad happened just now." The front desk lady said with a rather serious expression. "Although in principle the association does not mandate to assign missions to adventurers, but due to the serious shortage of manpower at present, we have decided to entrust you in the name of the association."
