Skilled Pikemen Don't Leash

"This is... the iron sword of the kobold lord?"

As we all know, when an African sinks a ship, there must be a creature named "seal" near him performing a skill called "leopard jump".For example, a certain Kirito, a certain Kirito, and a certain Kirito.

Chapter 405 As a lucky E, I can only be a fairy

To be honest, as the holder of the Lancer system, Yi Guang has always had a miserable life in some aspects under the malicious taste of the creator of the system.If he thinks about it carefully, he has had a miserable life along the way. Although his current strength looks pretty good, Yi Guang himself probably doesn't even remember how many times he almost died.

In short, our student Yi Guang has almost despaired of his luck in many places.However, after going through so many things, Yi Guang also looked away. After all, he has been slanted along the way, and he has achieved a little success so far. There is no need to envy those European hosts—the last time he met in the world of "FGO" The two who arrived were not as good as myself.

In view of his bad luck, when he first entered this game, Yi Guang also discussed with the system that if his character was too bad in this game, he would not be able to get useful "reinforcement modules", which would cause him to What should I do if my in-game strength cannot be improved.As a matter of course, the system made him give up the option of honestly brushing up dungeons to improve his strength, and turned to take a slanted approach.

[You are my host, my host!who I am?System, there are only eight... oh no, there are only seven systems in the entire infinite world.You have a golden finger like me, but you still need to get enhanced modules by brushing dungeons and doing tasks like other players?of course not!It's just an imperfect subspace created by a half-baked person who accidentally came into contact with the realm of gods. We can try to project the host's own power according to the laws of this world, so as to avoid the collapse of the entire server caused by divine power.The specific method is that we can imitate the "enhancement module" by ourselves, manifest your power as the "enhancement module", and then use the "player driver" to use it like a normal module.That way, you don't have to worry about crashing effects on the server. 】

In short, let Yi Guang use the code of the game to write his own content into it.In a relatively easy-to-understand way, it is to make MOD and plug-in programs.

"In an online game, this kind of behavior should be regarded as cheating, right? Will it not attract the attention of the other party?" Yi Guang frowned, "Mod or something, single player is fine, in this kind of online game, will you be sanctioned? "

Yi Guang's worry is not unreasonable, after all, this game is not an ordinary online game.This game is a real world, a world created by the man who walked the path of the gods.In this world, there is no customer service, no anti-cheat detection system, there is only a "God" who can truly "omnipotent" in this world.Even if the world itself is still a very rough product in the eyes of a superior being like the system, this does not change Tan Lidou's complete grasp of this small world.

Under such a premise, using this method similar to hacking, Yi Guang felt that this proposal was very unreliable.Mr. Tan Lidou, the game administrator, probably will come to the door immediately, right?At that time, I'm afraid I have to use divine power?

[Leave this question to me, you only need to decipher the essence of the module, and I will handle things like extracting power to make MOD modules. 】

In this way, Yi Guang decided from the very beginning the route of "go to the f*cking weapons and modules, and I will have enough food and clothing by myself", so he devoted himself to training hard, working hard to upgrade, and strived to open "module enhancement" as soon as possible, and live a life of writing by himself. MOD, the day of becoming a "fairy".

However, when he saw that he only produced a bunch of coins and two ordinary materials for fighting the BOSS, and when a creature named "Kiriya · Seal · Aotian · Kazuto" next to him was released, Yi Light still felt a certain melancholy and anger.That's the class antagonism that exists between Europeans and Africans, whales and seals.

In a word: "Europeans, eat me with a spear!"

However, after all, these thoughts only flickered in Yi Guang's mind for a while, and they were instantly suppressed by him.After all, they have stepped into the realm of gods. If they can still get angry because of such things, then Yi Guang's non-human mental strength is just for display.The huge difference in the form of existence between him and Kirito predestined how Yi Guang would really treat him, but...

"As expected, I'm still very envious. I also want to experience it once the goods are shipped." Yi Guang said with some self-pity, "To be honest, I don't seem to have shipped many goods before encountering the system. .”

"This is, the iron sword of the kobold lord?"

After hearing Kirito talking to himself, Yi Guang became more and more depressed.Although he doesn't care much about these things, but playing online games is like this, even if you know that this thing is actually meaningless to you, but when others ship the goods and you sink the ship, you will always feel uncontrollable pain in your heart.However, as a person who is used to seeing strong winds and waves, Yi Guang quickly adjusted his mentality, and then looked towards the light curtain in front of Kirito.

[Kobold Lord's Black Rust Sword X1]

In the light curtain that appeared in front of Kirito, Yi Guang saw such a display, and below it were rows of densely packed small words, explaining the basic attributes and functions of this weapon in detail.Needless to say, even the weapons dropped by Lv.10 primary bosses are far stronger than novice weapons that have not been upgraded with materials.Undoubtedly, compared to Yi Guang who got almost nothing except for a sum of Cole, Kirito can be regarded as a bumper harvest. The value of this one-handed sword alone is already higher than the value of the three items dropped by Yi Guang. The total price will be higher.

"It comes with two passive skills of 'Repel' and 'Cleave'... Congratulations, Kirito, this is a very rare attribute weapon in the early stage." Yi Guang congratulated Kirito with a sigh.

"Ah, how should I put it, although I am very happy to get this sword, but I always feel that I am not worthy of this weapon. After all, I don't seem to have done much in the previous battle." Kirito scratched his head, He said with some embarrassment, "After all, no one thought of this kind of random allocation before..."

Tongren sincerely expressed his guilt, but hearing this in Yi Guang's ears, it made him feel a little different.

Don't get me wrong, it doesn't mean that Yi Guang is greedy for Kirito's sword, wanting to snatch it or something.Rather, some kind of ominous premonition loomed in Yi Guang's heart.

Although Yiguang and Kirito have good personalities, they wouldn't fight over such a trivial matter, but... what about the others?Can you guarantee that under this random mechanism, other people will not have any ideas?

"Why? It's obvious that we have been charging forward to resist the boss's damage, but there is nothing in the end?"

"This is luck. The game setting is random distribution. Blame me? Besides, you also got a lot of money from Cole anyway, so it's not too much of a disadvantage, right?"

"Everyone has Cole, but the weapons and materials are completely unbalanced!"

Sure enough, when Yi Guang just thought of this question, among the players who were fighting side by side just now, some people started arguing in groups because of this question.Even, some impatient people have put on a posture, showing that they want to fight.

"Uh, little brother Lansa, this situation is not quite right..." Kirito naturally noticed the increasingly weird atmosphere on the field, he showed a somewhat flustered look, and at the same time subconsciously looked left and right, "I think we'd better hide? Nobody seems to be paying attention to us yet."

"I think so too. Sure enough... that guy who calls himself 'Dan Lidou' won't let us pass the level so easily." Yi Guang looked at the crowd in front of him who started to have conflicts because of equipment problems. The monster is indeed the most frightening and helpless in people's hearts."

As I said before, even in traditional online games, incidents of fighting between dungeon teams because of equipment also happen from time to time.Faced with the data composed of 0 and 1, good friends in the past can turn against each other casually, and the guild that has worked together along the way may also disintegrate overnight.Not to mention, this is an almost completely real world, a world where as long as you die without paying attention, you will really fall into a long sleep.

If the equipment in other online games only satisfies the player's desire to pretend and self-fantasy, then the materials, weapons, and modules that will be opened in the future are the capital to gain a foothold in this world.Its importance is far greater than that of equipment and mounts in traditional online games, so it is inevitable that there will be more intense and extensive conflicts.And the most terrible thing is that the equipment and materials of this game are not bound, but similar to the early ancient online games such as "Legend". After the player is killed, the things he holds will have a chance to be exploded .

This means that players should be careful of other players while attacking monsters.Murder guilds like the "Smiling Coffin" in the original "Sword Art Online" will definitely appear in this magically altered world.And in the exploration stage where the framework of the "guild" system has not yet been established, this kind of thing that is torn because of equipment will definitely be the most serious period in the history of this game.

"I think we'd better hide, Brother Lansa. Although they shouldn't kill people, but..."

Kirito just wanted to say this to Yi Guang, but Yi Guang had already taken a step ahead and pulled him forward.Obviously, Yi Guang also thought about the same thing as Kirito, so he dragged Kirito to the cave where the inner passage was opened after the Kobold BOSS was defeated without hesitation.That was the new labyrinth area unlocked after the kobold lord was defeated, but most of the people outside were fighting because of the equipment, so they didn't notice it.Only a small number of people have been paying attention to the map of this labyrinth, so Yiguang and Kirito followed this group of explorers into the cave.

Chapter 406 Kirito's Thoughts

The action of exploring the maze area guarded by the kobolds was finally abandoned halfway. After forcibly exploring the area before the first boss of the maze, Kirito and Yiguang had to return to the ground.

As for the reason, it is also very simple, two words: grade.

Yes, compared to the monsters in the maze, the levels of Hiko and Kirito are a bit low.This is also easy to understand. After all, the kobold lord who is the gatekeeper has a level of Lv.10, so the monsters in the maze will not be worse than it. The minimum specification is five-player dungeon, but the large number is enough for players to drink a pot.Facing a group of Lv.10, or even Lv.12 elite kobold fighters, even Yi Guang and Kirito, who are used to leapfrogging and fighting monsters, are a bit struggling.

Very helpless, in a hierarchical MMORPG game, it is unreasonable to suppress such things as levels. In the original "Sword Art Online", Kirito once complained about this point.Now the levels, attributes, and skills of all players are at an extremely weak level. At this time, you have to go beyond level five and above to suppress monsters... Among other things, your weapon's hit rate is a problem.Especially when facing the first boss in the maze, even though both of them are said to be the best among players, Yi Guang has experienced many battles, but faced with various "deflection" and "miss" judgments, The two of them could only sigh.In the end, after grinding away one-third of the boss's health, the two of them, whose health was in danger, had to go back to the entrance of the maze through the "transportation crystal" prepared in advance for emergency.

"Sure enough, our current level is really too weak, we should work hard to level up."

After experiencing the feeling of going to the dungeon once, Yi Guang realized his own weakness.Without being able to use his divine power at all, he also had to be subject to the "level suppression" game setting, which was a bit of a slump.

"You're right, Brother Lansa, exploring the maze...it's really too early for us." Kirito also said as he saw that he had less than one-fifth of his life left. With lingering fears in his heart, "But Brother Lansa, you are indeed very powerful. You actually dealt with the boss alone for so long."

"Don't be kidding, I originally explored this dungeon on a whim, but I didn't expect you to make trouble with me." Yi Guang said with some reproach, "This dungeon was originally recommended for five people to explore. There are only two of you and me, and the level is still low." It's so low...you're not afraid of accidents."

"Speaking of which, Brother Lansa, didn't you go inside first?" Kirito asked back, "But you were able to bring me a Lv.5... oh, a Lv.6 player and a Lv.10 player The monsters in the five-person maze fought back and forth, brother Lansa, how old are you?"

"I've at least prepared the 'transportation crystal' at any time, and I'm ready to retreat at any time, just checking the situation." Yi Guang sighed, and then looked at Kirito with a strange expression, "But judging by your appearance, you are always adventurous Guys... Ordinary players don't carry the 'transportation crystal' with them."

"Teleportation crystal" is one of the common props in the game. As the name suggests, it is a prop that allows players to escape from the battle in an instant and teleport back to safe areas such as towns or maze entrances.In this period when everyone's level has not broken through single digits, and the source and quantity of Cole are very limited, such functional items that can save lives are naturally very expensive, so generally speaking, ordinary players do not Would buy something like this and take it with me.After all, before considering whether you will die in battle, players need to first consider how not to starve to death in this real game that really needs to eat and drink—as far as the current state of most players is concerned, they Quests and monster spawning experience can only maintain their daily expenses, as well as simple entertainment and relaxation needs.

In this case, those who would carry such unconventional items as "Transportation Crystals" needless to say, were the same as Yi Guang who worked hard to level up, liked to go deep into dangerous areas, and often leapfrogged to kill monsters.Only this kind of people have enough wealth and affluence to buy such props, and they also need to carry and store such props at any time to ensure their survival in high-level areas.

"After all, I am a beta tester. On the premise of understanding part of the content of the game, of course we must pursue higher efficiency." Kirito explained his behavior, "But Brother Lanza is more powerful than people like us. You are much more powerful. You didn’t participate in the beta test and don’t know the content of the game, but you still dare to do the same things as us, and you seem to be progressing very fast. When you dealt with those kobold guards before, your contingency skills are not inferior For experienced players like us."

"Probably because I have considerable fighting experience in reality. Compared with humans, the monsters here are still a bit weaker in adaptability and intelligence. As long as they are not equipped with a boss template and cannot be dealt with with skills, I can deal with them." "Yi Guang smiled, "But Kirito, if I'm not mistaken, you should have a little foundation in swordsmanship."

"This, can you actually see it?" Kirito was slightly taken aback, and then a self-deprecating smile appeared on his face, "Yes, I have learned swordsmanship, but I gave up after a few years of learning. I thought it didn't matter at first. , I didn’t expect these to be useful.”

"Yes, life is impermanent. These players originally came in with the idea of ​​playing a new game, but it turned into a battle for survival and freedom." Yi Guang looked at the other players at the entrance of the maze, "I remember You said that in the two months of beta testing, your progress in clearing the game is only five floors. Now the content of the official version of the game has changed, and it has also increased. It is necessary to clear a hundred floors... I don’t know, the people in this game , what will become of it in the end.”

This game is completely different from the original book, and the scope of players is no longer limited to the [-] starter players who are stuck here today.According to Tan Lidou's plan, new players will enter here soon, and the difficulty of the game will also increase with the number of people.Since he designed such a death game, it is definitely impossible for the players to succeed in the attack simply by relying on the advantage of numbers.At the same time, this also means that the two-year strategy completion schedule in the original book has been turned into nothingness, and players may have to spend more time to go out.

At that time, whether these players who have gained extraordinary power in the game and fought against monsters for a long time will cause social problems... It is indeed very worrying.After all, they are not playing games with brain waves like the original, but really using their bodies.

"Yes, speaking of it, it is indeed a very worrying thing." Kirito also nodded, "But we who are trapped in this game now are not qualified to say such things, right. We have to think about it in the future If you want to, you must become stronger."

"That's right, your mentality is better than most of the current players in this game." Yi Guang nodded, "Let's go, since this place is not where we should be now, let's go to other places to level up first."

From the very beginning, Yiguang and Kirito never thought that they could completely clear this dungeon now, and their original intention was to avoid the group of players outside who almost got into a fight because of the equipment, and to explore the details of this dungeon by the way. .And the other players who entered with them seemed to have the same idea, at most they wanted to explore the way.When Yiguang and Tongzi walked out of this maze, they saw many other players also come out of the light sent by the instance with the same expression on their faces.

Needless to say, those who dared to enter the cave to explore at this level, but managed to escape, must be experienced people similar to Kirito.

How should I put it, although most people would be at a loss or even panic when faced with this kind of death game situation.But obviously, human nature is not only afraid of death, but also to die, otherwise how could there be a class of adventurers like the world of "Su Qing" and "Dungeon Encounter" world.While most people were panicking, there were still such a group of people who rushed to the forefront of fighting monsters, fully practicing the saying "wealth and wealth are sought in danger".

"Although most players are in constant fear, among humans, there are a group of people who are not afraid of death at any time."

When I watched anime before, because the angle of view was all on Kirito, I didn’t pay much attention to the other beta players. Now that I’m in this game world, I found that many of these guys are brave enough to die... Ah no, it’s for exploration .I remember that it was vaguely mentioned in the original book that most of the beta test players are a group of lone rangers like Kirito. It is true that most of them are powerful, solitary, and do not participate in guilds or other forms of raiding teams.

"After all, you have to find a way. Since you can't get out, it's better to seize the time to level up and get resources. The essence of online role-playing games is a battle for resources between players. The more you grab, the more resources the system has Only those who are provided with limited money, props, and experience points can become stronger." Kirito sighed, and then said firmly, "Although others are confused now, most people will eventually figure it out. When the time comes, they will There are a large number of players leveling and making money in the novice area on the first floor. The resources will be exhausted soon, and the difficulty of leveling will become very high in a certain period of time. At that time, it will be difficult to become stronger. Not to mention Said that soon there will be more heartbeats poured in from the outside world, and this cycle will become shorter."

"You're not very old, so you think far ahead..." Yi Guang looked at Kirito in surprise, "I look forward to your performance in the future, maybe we can go to the [-]th floor together in the future."

"Hey! You are not too old, right?" Kirito said with some dissatisfaction, "Look at you, you are just a high school student, don't pretend to be like a grandfather in front of me."

"Grandpa? Maybe I really am."

Author's message:

PS: The plot of Chapter 7 of "fgo" is really frankly mentally polluted... By the end, I was in a bad mood.

Mushrooms are also devoid of conscience...

Chapter 407 The Game World Gradually Begins to Prosper

With the completion of the first BOSS kobold lord's strategy, the player level of the entire "Sword Art Online" has entered a period of development.

Yes, although it does seem unbelievable, the level of players has indeed entered a stage of rapid development.The main reason is probably that after defeating the kobold lord, the five-player dungeon of "Kobold Underground Kingdom" was opened.Although the first batch of players who entered the exploration all failed, and even a group of players died directly in the early stage, the resources and experience value produced by the dungeon far exceed those scattered monsters in the wild, which is not good for the players. It's not a temptation.And when the basic level of the players gradually increased over time, the copy of the "Kobold Underground Kingdom", which was originally considered to be a difficult area, became the permanent area for the players at the current level.

Even many players, in order to ensure the time efficiency of leveling, did not even go back to the town, and directly brought tents and camping equipment to set up camp at the entrance of the instance.Even, in order to ensure the efficiency of everyone's leveling in this area, organizations like "security teams" gradually began to appear, mainly for players to jointly expel those monsters spawned near the camping area.

"Let's start the group. The kobold dungeon efficiency team, finish the fight in half an hour. Those who come are obedient, and those who don't obey the command get out."

"Lv.11 Sword and Shield Warrior, has the ability to control and pull monsters, if there is a team that needs it, please discuss it in detail."

"The kobold team is fourth and first, and those who are above Lv.10 please apply to me."

In less than half a month, this remote valley suddenly became like a vegetable market.The appearance of dungeons has brought a stable source of resources, which has greatly alleviated the tension in game resources that Kirito originally speculated, and also strengthened those players who are behind in level or have just got rid of confusion and joined the leveling army. own strength.Coupled with the influx of the first batch of new players, the level of the entire player group has entered a rapid growth.

Yes, a week after the game opened, this "game of death" ushered in the first wave of population growth.As the Bugster Legion led by Kayaba Akihiko successfully occupied the capital area, the sales of "Sword Art Online" software and "Player Drive" that had been suppressed by the Neon government were restarted, which brought a group of relatives and friends who wanted to save themselves , a new player full of courage and action.The entry of this group of new players has changed the mentality of some players. Most of them are relatives and friends of the starting players. The reunion and encouragement of relatives and friends has made some passive players become upward again.At the same time, they also brought news from the real world, which further confirmed the authenticity of Tan Lidou's words, and also let the players understand that no one can save themselves now.

"Even the government, the Self-Defense Forces, and even the US military can't do anything?!"

"Desperate, desperate, we are completely finished!"

"Sure enough, you can only go out if you have to complete the strategy?"

"There is only one way to go... There is no way, you can't just sit and wait to die."

Human beings are such creatures, they will always take a chance when there may be a little hope, and when the hope is destroyed by reality, they will adapt to the change of reality.After learning all kinds of things that happened in the real world from the new players, and after confirming that no one can save them, among those players who were still confused, a large number of them immediately abandoned their illusions and devoted themselves to the strategy of the game. middle.More and more people left the "Initial Town" and began to face those monsters with malicious intentions together with the new players.

Of course, for those players who are completely desperate, these news make them lose all hope and courage, which also makes the phenomenon of suicide in the game occur frequently in a period of time.However, Neon is already famous for its high suicide rate, coupled with the unique reality of the game world, these poor guys don't pay much attention.In the end, their actions only left a name on the monument to the fallen in the "Black Iron Palace".

For most players, life always has to go on, not everyone is willing to face death.

"Even if I lose to a monster and die, I don't want to lose to this game and this world."

For example, a girl with long chestnut hair whispered to herself in a somewhat extreme tone after learning about the situation in the outside world.Then activated the armor of the fighting posture, holding a slender rapier, and started his own adventure.She did not wait for external rescue, because she knew that under the current circumstances, it would be difficult for her family to find reliable candidates to rescue her.And it is impossible for my parents and elder brother to abandon their superior social status to rescue themselves in person.

For quite a long time, I could probably consider myself abandoned.

So I can only rely on myself.

"This game world has really begun to smell a little prosperous."

Returning to the "Town of the Beginning" to hand over the task again, Yi Guang looked at the new stalls that appeared on both sides of the street, as well as the bargaining customers and vendors, and said in a rather complicated tone.In the ten days after the dungeon of "Kobold's Underground Kingdom" was discovered and opened, many high-end players who were fighting at the forefront discovered three more regular dungeons one after another, which made the map of the entire first floor more and more clear. , and at the same time make the output of low-level resources more stable.The basic ecology of the entire game is gradually built up, followed by the prosperity of commercial activities among players, and the activity of life-related players.Now, a month has passed since the game was released, and various town strongholds represented by the "Initial Town" have begun to appear with stalls and shops established by players.Compared with NPC shops with programmed behavior patterns, the stalls and shops established by these players make the city in this game really lively.Although limited by the level and resource acquisition, these stalls appear crude and not rich in products, but at least there is a vitality that was not there before.

"This doesn't look bad, at least it's much better than when everyone was dead at first."

Kirito, who was walking beside Yiguang, also nodded, expressing his agreement with his point of view.Since conquering the kobold lord together and exploring the "Kobold Underground Kingdom", Yi Guanghe and the hero of the original book have added friends to each other in the game, and often explore dungeons together.However, most of the time, these two people still act alone, and only when the next dungeon is short of manpower will they summon each other.As for why the two didn't form a fixed team to attack, Yi Guang's side is naturally because there are too many things in him that are difficult to explain, such as why he can attack without sleep and why his level is obviously higher than other players by a large amount. Cuts and the like... However, the main reason is actually Mr. Kirito's psychological barrier.

"Brother Lansa, why does your girlfriend always look at me with a feeling that makes my heart jump?"

Yes, the system returned again after disappearing inexplicably for a few days, and this time she never turned into a card and blended into her body again.Instead, she maintained the attitude of Ms. Miyamoto Musashi, who didn't know how to get a set of player's equipment, and started raiding the dungeon together with herself.

"Hey, hey, didn't you say that you can't directly interfere with the mission?" Yi Guang was extremely surprised by this, "What are you doing now?"
