Skilled Pikemen Don't Leash

"Wait a minute, that 'source code' represents the laws of 'reproduction' and 'birth'... and before that thing disappeared, it wrote these two laws into the bottom of this world. In this way, in this way Come on...that Asuna, she..."

Tan Lidou's eyes lit up all of a sudden, and he looked straight at Asuna's waist and abdomen.

"If this is true, then the final result..." Tan Lidou's face once again showed the smile of Zhong Er, "Fate, it really is on my side!"

Very good, that should be more, wait and see what happens... I look forward to the final result.

While Tan Lidou discovered the truth and began to take action, Yi Guang also successfully returned to the front line of the strategy.And as the "Smiling Coffin" guild was broken, the players of the "Hunter" organization gradually shifted the focus of their games to the strategy.Although after the destruction of "Smiling Coffin", there are still a certain number of "Murder Guild" groups in this game, but after the "leader" "Smiling Coffin" was wiped out, they were also affected a lot. Time, the atmosphere of the entire game is clear.

In such an atmosphere, the progress of the "Strategy Team" suddenly accelerated a lot, especially after a considerable number of "Hunters" joined, and they quickly made up for the delay caused by the riots caused by Yiguang and Tan Lidou. Progress, successfully completed the No.40 floor "world task" within the deadline, and continued to advance the progress of the strategy along the way.

In three months, the progress of the players' strategy has advanced to the fourth floor of No.40.

Then, a seemingly inconspicuous incident happened between the players.This caused many players to feel astonished, but also a subtle feeling that some kind of emotion that had never appeared before fermented among the players.

That is, the birth of a new life.

Yes, as I said before, when the "world will" facing extinction chose Asuna as its mother, it wrote the laws it represented into the world's operating rules.It chose to use the rules it represented to obtain its own existence through the birth of ordinary human beings, and it also gave all life in this world the right to reproduce.The most primitive and most important piece of the puzzle in terms of the laws of the entire world has been completed, and now is the time for this piece of the puzzle to show its effect.

Following a group of players who are husband and wife or male and female friends, they found that the women among them had a series of pregnancy reactions such as morning sickness, and the personal data of these female players did not know when "pregnant" was added After the status logo, the players gradually reacted to the meaning it represented.All of a sudden, doubts, joy, worries... all kinds of emotions began to brew among the players.The player ecology, which has become relatively stable since the "Smiling Coffin" was wiped out, has become a little tense again.

However, compared to the killing horror brought by "Smiling Coffin", this time it can only be regarded as a commotion among the players.It did not produce any sense of destruction, nor did it cause any adverse consequences, but it did make players feel uneasy and nervous.

"Turtle! This game is too real... Can you still get pregnant?" This is a heartless person who still enjoys the game.

"Not only can you have sex in this game, but can you actually have children? Well, am I going to be a father?" This is an optimistic attitude.

"What is this? What are we now? Why are we able to conceive offspring, and what will be born? Is it human?" This is worrying about the current reality.

"No! This is a monster! This must be the new experiment of that lunatic! He wants to breed a group of monsters in this way!" This is the person with the deepest malice towards Tan Lidou and the world, who is fishing on the 22nd floor Tan Lidou said that he was shot in anger.

In short, as more and more pregnant women among female players, there are various opinions among the players.Although the emotions of the players remained stable and restrained in general, radicals inevitably appeared, trying to attack pregnant female players.These people believed that this was another conspiracy by Tan Lidou. He tried to use the bodies of female players to breed new breeds of monsters.

For a while, the players showed all kinds of beings, but fortunately, everyone in the "Strategy Team" has not been affected by this emotion for the time being.Although there are also female players in the "Strategy Group" who are pregnant, elite players with considerable discipline and fighting spirit can clearly distinguish the overall situation.

"Well, it's about time. It's time for the child in Asuna's womb to be untied."

After discussing with Yi Guang, the system felt that it was time for Asuna to know the truth.But they didn't know that at this time, Tan Lidou had also found the secret hidden by them, otherwise they would be more cautious and sensitive.However, no one can be omniscient and omnipotent, so under Tan Lidou's "secret observation" strategy, Yi Guang and others are still kept in the dark.

Thus, Yi Guang and the system came to the second floor of No.20 again.

Chapter 457

"Eh? I, I'm actually...pregnant? Well, how could...Although I'm with Kirito-kun, but..."

"Although your age is indeed a bit younger, there is no doubt that according to the data feedback from my calculations, you are indeed pregnant, Asuna." The system said to Asuna with a smile on his face, "Congratulations, you I'm going to be a mother. Of course, congratulations to Kirito-kun, you're going to be a father too..."

"But, didn't you say that I...didn't you say that I was infected with the virus?" Asuna still had a feeling of bewilderment, "Well, is it really okay? It really doesn't matter if a child born with that virus Is it? Will it become a monster..."

"It's really hard to say, but it shouldn't be possible to become a monster." The system said honestly, "After all, the virus we have obtained has lost its original activity and the ability to mutate human appearance. Of course, after your child is born, she must be extraordinary. Maybe she will become an individual with authority in this world just like us. This is why we are so nervous. If your child really gets a part of this world authority, then we have undoubtedly gained an important bargaining chip in the war against Tan Lidou."

"Wait a minute, you mean, you want this kid to join your fight?"

Asuna suddenly became hesitant, even though she was still in astonishment, even though her child was not born.However, the instinct of being a mother is still reflected in Asuna at this moment.Almost subconsciously, she began to worry about the little guy in her stomach who didn't even have a basic form. Of course, part of it was also worried for herself.Because he also understands that if the child in his womb is really so important, then as a mother himself, he will inevitably be involved in this dispute.

"No, we didn't let him join this dispute. This is the fate of this child and yours." The system shook his head, "This child is destined to become an important trump card for us to defeat Tan Lidou. Something that was destined before she was born."

"Eh? Why 'her'?" Kirito's focus was a little different, "You can tell the difference between men and women at this time?"

"Well, I have my own way to know." The system smiled slightly, "Anyway, I can be sure that this is a little girl, a cute little girl."

"If so, then she..."

Asuna was a little uneasy. She understood what the system meant. The birth of this child was an abnormal event. Even if the system didn't say it clearly, she was not stupid. There must be some kind of relationship.Just like what the system just said, it's not that someone got this child involved in the dispute, but that this is her fate.

Perhaps this child is not her child at all, but "something" born through her belly.

But so what?After all, the child was in her womb, she was the one who gave birth, and she instinctively showed maternal love to this unborn life.

"Please rest assured, none of us know what the future holds, but..." Yi Guang said at this moment, "We are all working hard to make it better, everything will be fine..."

Although there was a little controversy over the child's future, Asuna's mentality was considered stable.Probably because there have been many cases of female players getting pregnant among the players. Although Asuna showed shyness and surprise, her mood was generally stable.This made both Yi Guang and Kirito heave a sigh of relief. A big stone that had been weighing on their hearts for several months finally fell to the ground.

"Anyway, thank you very much..." Kirito said to Yiguang and the system with a haggard face in a corner far away from Asuna's sight, "Without you, I would have been in this situation. do not know what to do."

Once again, Kiritani Kazuto is only 15 years old this year. If there is no such thing, he should be an ordinary junior high school student—according to the name of the Celestial Dynasty, that is, a junior high school student.A little boy in the third grade of junior high school, if you bring in what Kirito has encountered in the past year, especially in the past three months, if it was handled by other third-grade junior students, it would have exploded long ago.Not to mention junior high school students, even adults, how can they ensure that they will not be in a mess in the face of this series of things?

Therefore, Yi Guang admired this guy very much, especially his attitude towards Asuna.In fact, when the previous incident happened, he could completely reject the system's suggestion, but he neither ran away nor made a hasty decision.After careful consideration, he still decided to take up this burden, and also carried out a strengthening transformation on himself according to Yi Guang's suggestion.

Just like Kazuma Sato back then, Hiko admired this kind of responsible character very much, so he was not stingy with Kirito.Although he was rarely able to come to the second floor of No.20 because of the "Strategy Team", he let the system carry out "module strengthening" upgrades for Kirito many times. From the various skills that Yiguang learned, A series of martial arts were integrated and delivered to Kirito.

And during the time when Yiguang left, Kirito's own progress was actually pretty good.His "reinforcement module" has been constantly evolving with his battles in the dungeon, and according to the relevant information reserved by the system, Kirito has successfully restored the "Starburst Airflow Slash" and "Eclipse" on his own. Most of the original "Double Swords Style" techniques in it.

In short, from the current point of view, it can indeed be said that everything is going well.

Of course, if there is no Tan Lidou who is peeping from the side, then everything is really operating according to Yi Guanghe's prediction.However, even on the 22nd floor, Yi Guanghe's system failed to detect Tan Lidou's prying eyes. In this world structured by data and permissions, Tan Lidou, who has the most authority, successfully avoided Yi Guanghe's prying eyes. system perception.Although there have been cases of peeping at Yi Guang and being detected by him, and using divine power to counteract, but with authority, one can do whatever one wants. In the world of data, programmers can theoretically do anything.Therefore, it is not difficult for Tan Lidou to find another way to obtain information from Yi Guang and the system.The only disadvantage is that the timeliness may be a little bit worse, and the accuracy is also open to question.But this is nothing to Tan Lidou, he is not the kind of person who must control everything in his own hands.

His interest in Yiguang, and now Asuna, is only in research.He only needs to obtain the necessary information and relevant experimental data. This genius programmer doesn't care much about timeliness and accuracy.

After all, he's not a professional agent, he's just a programmer.Besides, in front of the two monsters Yi Guang and the system, he really didn't dare to be too presumptuous. Being able to test on the edge like now is already his most active way to deal with it.Although Yi Guang and him are in a state of mutual balance, if he really offends the other party, he really can't beat that spearman.

After all, he is a professional trainer, so he is just a programmer, okay?

"Then, it can be confirmed now that the 'source code' still hasn't given up its attempt to obtain a body. It uses the female player named 'Asuna' as its womb, trying to transform itself into a complete body through biological birth. s life."

In a corner that Yi Guang and the system could not detect, Tan Lidou analyzed while looking at the feedback from his authority.Surrounding him are several light curtains full of data information and corresponding consoles, among which are not only fragments of conversations between Yiguang and Kirito, but also related data changes.Although due to the existence of the system, it is impossible to directly obtain data from Asuna and Kirito, but relying on these most basic data, Dan Rito can already guess the general situation.

"In this case, there is no need for me to stare at this side." Tan Lidou thought for a while, "Anyway, as long as my intention is not exposed, they will not leave the second floor of No.20. I just need to wait. Just wait for the formed 'source code' to be born."

After carefully studying the conversation between Yi Guang and Kirito, Tan Rito decided to put this matter aside for the time being.As a straight steel man who never considered any women-related issues until he was 30 years old, and never showed any discriminatory treatment when talking to women, Tan Lidou said that he spent several months observing the pregnancy of a 16-year-old pregnant woman Change, this is really a meaningless thing.This is especially true when there are two guys who can counter him and appear irregularly beside the target pregnant woman.

Therefore, he simply handed over the matter to the server's automatic recording program, and then went to do other things by himself.

So, surprisingly, nothing happened during the period of Asuna's pregnancy.It can be said that the world is peaceful, so peaceful that Yi Guanghe and the system are still full of confidence, thinking that Tan Lidou doesn't know about it at all.

Of course, if you want to say that the world has been peaceful in the past few months, it is not always true.Although no one noticed such problems at first, as time went by, some problems began to be exposed slowly.The discussion about the new life has slowly turned into a real problem from the blowing water among the players.The continuous expansion of this problem is brewing some kind of vortex that has already been foreshadowed.

Chapter 458 Dispute, in the name of "love"

After solving the problem on Asuna's side, everyone seemed to be relieved. Whether it was Hiko or Kirito, they all returned to the normal life track before.

No one realized that the most serious crisis since the opening of "Sword Art Online" was quietly brewing within a few months.The crisis this time does not come from Tan Lidou who is the game administrator, nor does it come from the monsters in the game whose self-evolution is getting higher and higher.Unprecedented, this time the crisis comes from the players themselves.

Yes, the collapse of people's hearts is often only in a very short period of time.Moreover, it is different from the killing of players by "Smiling Coffin", which is derived from the opposition of good and evil at the moral level, but something broader and more incomprehensible.

Motherly love, and likewise fatherly love.

Perhaps for some science students who are absolutely sane or like rational thinking, the so-called "maternal love" and "fatherly love" are just the instincts born of human beings as animals to ensure the continuation of the race and the safety of offspring.After humans evolved into intelligent life, this instinct was complicated and turned into something more emotional and vague, and became a shining point of human nature.However, as a party with such feelings, this is not the case at all. The so-called rationality has a great chance of being defeated in front of a new life.

Yes, although there are countless realistic news and literary works, they all exaggerate the supremacy of interests and the dark side of human nature.But it has to be admitted that when survival can be quite maintained, human morality is generally maintained at a certain level, which is the cornerstone for the basic stability of social order.Just like this game world, even if there is no law, most players maintain some kind of restraint and self-discipline. Killing organizations like "Smiling Coffin" are only a minority after all.

Therefore, when the feelings of "mother's love" and "father's love" really came, the player who gave birth to a new life began to change in his heart.As the so-called "October of Pregnancy", whether it is the mother of the bearer or the father of another party, they are unconsciously adjusting their hearts-bringing themselves into the role of "parents". middle.

Yes, even though there are all kinds of scumbag parents in this world, the essence of human beings still follows the instinct of race survival.This is the necessity of the continuation of species. Even if some people deviate from this law, most people are still dominated by it.This is also the reason why human beings have been able to reproduce to this day, and stand on the top of this planet with an astonishing number of 70 billion.

Just like the current Miss Asuna, from the very beginning when she was shocked to learn that she was pregnant, until now, she has practiced all the skills of being a qualified mother by herself.Yes, including a series of skills such as cooking, knitting, tailoring, and prenatal education, Miss Asuna has completely acquired them in more than half a year.Due to the system's deliberate suppression, although Asuna was the first pregnant woman in the world, her child was not born very early. The earliest batch of pregnant players even had their own children now.

Fortunately for everyone, these "second generation players" born in the game world are not all kinds of little monsters as everyone feared before.They are just like normal human babies, cute, lively and healthy.Such news has infected a large number of players who will become mothers and fathers.

Such as our Mrs. Asuna, such as Mr. Kirito.

"Hey, Musashi-sama, this is my newly knitted coat! Look, isn't this cute... Well, I personally think that pink ones are better for girls."

When the system and Yiguang went to visit Asuna and Kirito again, Miss Asuna was already seven months pregnant, and her belly was already very obvious... Cough cough, no, it should be Asuna Madam, in a very proud tone, showed the system her newly knitted sweater.

Well, very cute, small, the kind that children wear.

"Mrs. Kiritani, I think you've done a little...too much."

Since Asuna and Kirito have already entered into a formal marriage relationship, and they are about to have a child, the system's title has naturally changed.But now, the system looked at the piles of all kinds of small clothes and small shoes that almost filled the entire bed, and suddenly felt a sense of powerlessness.Although I understood the concept of "maternal love" from the database, after seeing Asuna's performance at the moment, the system still expressed its incomprehension somewhat remorselessly.

"Although I understand that you are trying your best to practice tailoring and knitting so that the child in your womb can have beautiful clothes from birth, but this... I don't think she needs so many clothes." System Carefully organized her words, "Look, the clothes you are weaving now can be worn until she is at least two years old. And, to be honest, I dare not say, what kind of baby will your child be born with?" What state is it?"

After learning knitting and tailoring, Asuna not only perfected the skill proficiency as quickly as possible, but also asked Kirito to collect various rare materials in each layer of dungeons, and weaved many children's clothes.From the baby clothes in the infancy to the baby clothes of two or three years old, this former "Strategy Group" elite who was in a pregnant state showed his amazing efficiency at this moment.But as the system said, because Asuna's child is too special, she can't guarantee whether this child will grow slowly from infancy. According to the existing test data, the system believes that There is a high probability that the clothes Asuna wove will be completely useless.

The system has told Asuna many times about this conclusion, but she obviously didn't listen to it.Young pregnant women who are full of energy and stay at home all day raising their babies still weave a lot of children's clothes.

"It seems that Asuna is completely ready to become a mother." While chatting with Kirito in the outside room, Yi Guang slightly shook his head, "Her acceptance is better than we imagined." Much stronger."

"Yeah, seeing Asuna like this, I am completely relieved." Kirito nodded, "Now, the only thing to do is wait for the baby to be born safely and prevent Dan Lidou from appearing suddenly."

"Yes, this situation is much more stable than we imagined before. I was a little surprised that there was no movement at Tan Lidou's side." Yi Guang agreed, "But , please don’t take it lightly, when the child is born, Tan Lidou will inevitably come to commit crimes, you must pay attention to this.”

"Of course, I understand." Kirito nodded, "By the way, you once said that the birth of this child may be our chance to defeat Dan Lidou and liberate this game world. Then, I can ask one thing ?"

"Let's talk, between you and me, there is no need to be so formal." Yi Guang waved his hand, "If you have any questions, I will be happy to answer them for you."

"I would like to ask, if this game world is liberated, what will happen to the child in Asuna's belly?" Kirito hesitated a little, and asked his own question, "Once this world is liberated, we will leave, then This child...will she be able to go to the real world with us? Or will she be left alone in this world? Will this world continue to exist? "

Kirito asked Yi Guang questions, from the first question, to the later confusion, and finally, the trace of fear in his eyes.Yi Guang saw all these, and then he fell into a kind of silence.

"Sure enough, everyone is unavoidable. Are you also caught in this kind of emotion like those players? Kirito-kun?" Finally, with a tone of "as expected", Yi Guang spoke again, " However, you can bear it and didn't come to ask me these questions until now."

"Because, I used to think that this was not a problem." Kirito smiled helplessly, "However, recently I have realized more and more that this is something we will inevitably face. Especially, seeing Ya Si When I saw Nana's hard work, and the happy smile she occasionally showed, I... and, I also heard some not-so-good remarks."

"That's right..." Yi Guang nodded, "Sure enough, from the very beginning, we ignored people's hearts."

Yes, from the very beginning, neither Yi Guang nor the system considered this issue.After all, although the system looks like a human, she is not human after all.As for Yi Guang, although he has a wife, he does not have a family in a certain sense.Those who have never conceived offspring will never know what it is like to be a parent.They have never considered that it is not the desires of human nature, nor the malice of Tan Rito and Kayaba Akihiko, that cause the greatest chaos in the player ecology of this game.

It's love, mother's love and father's love, these two loves that extend from the most primitive instincts of human beings, unexpectedly, become the biggest reason for the players' morale to be shaken.Players, because of the domination and infection of these two emotions, there is a crack in the camp.So much so that now, with the birth of the first batch of "player children" in the game, the conflicts between players began to intensify rapidly. A large number of players who have children or are about to have children have begun to change their attitudes towards "strategy". Positivity has turned into negativity, and voices of "against the Raiders" have even begun to appear.

As for the reason, it is just like what Kirito put forward now: Once this world is liberated, what will happen to the children born in the game world?

For those players who don't have a personal experience, or consider it entirely from the perspective of interests, the children born in this world are just a bunch of data, not even human beings, if there is no one, there will be nothing, as long as everyone can return to reality The world is fine no matter what.However, for those players who have experienced all this first-hand, those children who are regarded by others as "data" and "monsters" are real.

This difference in concept became the fuse of the dispute and was quickly ignited.

Chapter 459 The Torn World

It has been about two years since this "game of death" started.From the ignorance and fear of the players at the beginning, to the courageous struggle later, and then to the unity and cooperation afterwards, the "Strategy Group" with the slogan "United as one, liberate the game world" emerged.The growth of these players is enormous, and the progress can also be described as "amazing". Under extreme circumstances, these people have demonstrated the terrifying potential of human beings.The players, who were originally just abandoned houses and social animals, have been sharpening in this world and surpassing death. With a huge base of tens of thousands, they have created a group of elite fighters.

At one time, everyone believed that the "Strategy Team" could save the world.Even as an outsider, Yi Guang, who has part of the authority of the system, thinks so. This god who evolved from a mortal also believes in the possibility of human beings.Even Tan Lidou once deduced that he would be defeated by a hero who stands out among mortals.

However, no one thought that in the end, the "Strategy Team" would fall into a situation that almost collapsed in an unimaginable way.In other words, today's "strategy group" has already stood on the opposite side of a large number of players.

"Do you know what you are doing?" This is the roar of a staunch member of the "Strategy Team" when facing opponents.

"Of course we know that we are all just for ourselves." A soldier said, "And I am not planning to interfere with your 'strategy', we just applied to withdraw from the guild and this 'strategy group'."

"Are you kidding? Ajie, you are one of the best fighters among us. What would the front row do without you?"

"This has nothing to do with me anymore. If I continue to open up wasteland, I might die one day." The soldier who applied for resignation said, "I know, I may be sorry to my comrades, but you all understand that I am now I already have my own son with Ali, and you all know that I was the one who was at the forefront of the strategy... I was so scared! I don’t want to die, I have a son! Now every time I see him treat me The way he smiled made me very scared! I don’t want to lose sight of him and Ali, and I don’t want him to lose his father if he is sensible! You, you should be able to understand!”
