Chapter 76 Knife 1 Sword Art Online

Sure enough, as Zhao Shangyuan said, the fact that Zhao Shangyuan, the president of the Great Thousand World, accepted the challenge of Heathcliff, the head of the Knights of the Blood Alliance, has spread throughout the entire SAO world.Everyone regards this duel as the most publicized confrontation between the Blue Alliance and the Knights of the Blood Alliance, and the confrontation between the two forces in SAO has also attracted everyone's attention.

It is said that many places have set up gambling games for this. Some people think that Heathcliff is stronger because his blood volume has never dropped below the dangerous line, and some people think that Zhao Shangyuan is stronger because he has never fully demonstrated his true self. Strength.

However, generally speaking, more people think that Heathcliff will win, after all he is recognized as "the strongest man in SAO".Before this halo of fame, Zhao Shangyuan, who had always been low-key, looked much inferior.

At this time, many people are gathering together, discussing:

"I bet the long will win."

"This...Although I'm sorry for the chairman, I still bet on Heathcliff."

"I'm betting on Heathcliff, too."

"You guys look down on the president so much? You must bet that the president wins!"

When Fang Hengai walked into the lounge, what he saw was such a scene, and he couldn't help but have black lines all over his head: "Hey, what are you doing?"

"As you can see, I'm betting on who will win, the president or Heathcliff." The one who spoke was Asda, who just came back from the Moonlight Black Cat Group. Coldly said, "A bunch of boring guys."

"Isn't that right, the game of gambling has come to us?" Fang Hengai fumed, how boring these guys are is obviously a very important thing, but they had a good time.But fortunately, at least Asda is still normal...

"I've already bought the president to win. He has a higher odds, and if he wins, he will earn more than Heathcliff." Esta said this out of nowhere.

Fang Hengai: "..."

Esta also added: "So the president must win, I don't want to waste my hard-earned money like that!"

"..." Fang Hengai had nothing to say, glanced at Esda and the people behind her who were still discussing who should bet, turned around silently, and prepared to leave.

The moment she was about to pull the door open, the door opened by itself.She turned sideways to get out of the way, and then met a pair of dark eyes through the crack of the door.Seeing these eyes, Fang Hengai immediately remembered the duel that was about to start in the afternoon, and the chattering people behind them who were placing bets.

"What's the matter?" Zhao Shangyuan, who found Fang Hengai standing still and being blocked from the road, was not in a hurry, asked her with a slight smile, then looked past her, saw the lively crowd behind, and asked again, "What's wrong with them? It's so lively."

Those guys are betting on you to lose... Fang Hengai said silently in his heart.She stepped aside and signaled Zhao Shangyuan to go and have a look by herself, "Look for yourself, I'll go first."

She walked out of the door, and vaguely heard Zhao Shangyuan's calm voice from the crack of the door that was not fully closed:

"Bet on Heathcliff to win? Let me tell you, if you don't want to lose all your pants, just buy me to win. Don't change? Then don't blame me if you lose."

He is really confident.

Listening to Zhao Shangyuan forcing the guild members to buy him to win, Fang Hengai couldn't help laughing, the last bit of hesitation and worry in his heart dissipated invisible.

Soon it was the day of the duel, and in the huge duel arena on the 34th floor, there were crowds of people, all densely packed with people.Not only many ordinary players came, but also most of the members of the strategy group. The two bosses of the strategy group put down the game strategy and made a date for a woman. They naturally took the opportunity to watch the excitement.

Fang Hengai sat in the first row, next to Ye Qingyi and other members of the Great Thousand Worlds Guild.She looked at Zhao Shangyuan nervously, watched him smile at her, and then walked into the duel field leisurely.

"Bet! Bet! How much do you buy?" Ye Qingyi yelled from the side, and instantly stirred up the tense atmosphere.Fang Hengai couldn't laugh or cry, so he simply spent [-] cols to buy Zhao Shangyuan Sheng.

Zhao Shangyuan slung his Qianyuan Sword across his waist, walked slowly into the duel arena, and looked at Heathcliff standing opposite him from afar.Diving into the abyss, Qianlong is in the abyss, the golden dragon dormant in the scabbard, the day it is unsheathed, it is the time to leap into the sky.

His footsteps were not hurried or slow, and he stepped out of a rhythmic rhythm. His originally lazy and leisurely figure gradually became tall and straight, until he came to the center of the field and looked at Heathcliff, who was only ten meters away from him, with a calm expression.

The aura around him was very calm, he didn't show his teeth and claws, but had the introverted and arrogance of a master.

Heathcliff stood across from him, holding his sword and shield, showing a slight smile, and bowed slightly to him in a "please" gesture.

Zhao Shangyuan did not return the gift. In his opinion, anyone who tries to harm his important companions is an enemy that can be eliminated by any means.

There was a mocking smile on the corner of his lips, his voice was very soft, but it could be heard by Heathcliff:

"Give me the initiative, what a gentleman."

"--You will regret this."

As soon as the words fell, his figure disappeared from the spot, and the abyss was unsheathed, and the bright sword light burst out suddenly, with the sound of a dragon chant, and attacked Heathcliff mercilessly.His sword was fast and precise, Heathcliff didn't react for a moment, he raised his shield instinctively, leaned on the hard shield to block two attacks, and was about to block the third attack in the same way, when suddenly, the frontal attack disappeared Right after that, there was a sword light attacking from the side, straight at his throat.

"boom!"

At the critical moment, Heathcliff turned sideways, raised the great sword in his right hand, and blocked Zhao Shangyuan's sword.The two swords intersected, and he met Zhao Shangyuan's eyes. In those dark eyes, there was no wave, no emotion, and there was only one thing, and that was the sword.

These are the eyes of a swordsman.

He is a genius.Heathcliff suddenly had the idea of ​​cherishing talents, although in his opinion, both Zhao Shangyuan and Fang Hengai were hindering the balance of the game and needed to be obliterated, but after this moment, he suddenly hesitated.

But it doesn't matter, after winning this game, he still has time to think about what to do.

"Are you thinking, what will happen after you win?"

However, Zhao Shangyuan seemed to have seen through his thoughts. After the two swords intersected, his figure disappeared suddenly, leaving only this sentence gradually dissipating in the air.

"Sorry, you probably won't have this chance."

The voice was still on Heathcliff's left hand side. The next moment, he felt a chill on his back, and his health bar dropped by ten percent. He reacted quickly, rushed forward a few steps, turned around, and I saw Zhao Shangyuan's slightly regretful eyes.

Sitting in the auditorium, Fang Hengai watched the tense and fierce battle between the two in the duel field. At the same time, he could clearly see that although he was pressed and beaten by Zhao Shangyuan, Heathcliff hadn't tried his best yet.

The audience on the field also held their breaths, after all, the outcome of the two on the field is directly related to their wallets.Sitting next to Fang Hengai was Lisbeth, the chief foundry of the Great Thousand Worlds Guild. She was a little nervous, and poked Fang Hengai with her elbow, and whispered: "Hey, Hengai, look at the situation, the president will You won, right? Huanzi Zhu, let me put all the recent profits on the president..."

"Lisbeth, don't worry, he will win." Fang Hengai said, his eyes still fixed on the battle ahead, seeing that Heathcliff finally admitted that he underestimated the enemy a bit, and went all out to win the battle with Zhao Shangyuan Inextricably linked.

After Heathcliff went all out, Zhao Shangyuan was not so comfortable at the beginning, and was pressed by his offensive step by step, and finally exerted his full strength.As the number one sword cultivator, although many of his skills are restricted by the game, making him unable to reach his peak strength, this does not hinder him from fighting.

At this time, both of them were injured, and Heathcliff's blood bar had dropped to about 50%. Zhao Shangyuan was a little better than him, but it was still around 55%.

The more Zhao Shangyuan fought, the more he felt that the opponent's defense and attack were too high. If it weren't for the game data bonus of SAO, with Heathcliff's sword skills, he would have been defeated by him long ago.Moreover, he has also stayed here for two years, and he has never met someone with such a high overall physical fitness.

Should he be worthy of being the strongest man in SAO, or should he be worthy of being the game master of SAO?

He was thinking slowly in his heart, but the sword in his hand was getting faster, one ring after another, and the blooming sword flowers enveloped Heathcliff like a net.Relying on his precise sword and extremely high speed, his original strength was not bad, but because of Heathcliff's high defense, his strength was greatly compromised, so he could only rely on accuracy and speed to slowly sharpen his strength. Lose Heathcliff's health.

However, sometimes it can explode, for example, when the other party reveals flaws and weaknesses.

Grasping that fleeting moment, Zhao Shangyuan's sword aimed at the weak point under the gap between the sword and shield that Heathcliff had only revealed momentarily, and the Qianyuan sword crossed a tricky angle, piercing into it with an unstoppable force. Heathcliff's defense gap, rubbed against his shield, and accurately pierced Heathcliff's abdomen.

It stands to reason that when a human body's weakness is severely attacked, even if the blood volume does not return to zero, it will drop a lot.

"drop--"

However, following the sound, Heathcliff's blood volume dropped by 10%, and after dropping to 40%, his body glowed red, and his blood volume no longer decreased, remaining at the yellow level.

Zhao Shangyuan frowned, and tentatively made a few more wounds on Heathcliff. After finding that it was useless, he drew back his sword and stood in the distance, looking at Heathcliff.

Heathcliff first said: "Your strength is beyond my imagination. You can comprehend and create skills that the system didn't have before, and apply them in actual combat."

"You are also very good," Zhao Shangyuan also said, with sarcasm, "Your Excellency, the administrator who opens the plug-in."

He completely ignored the shock caused by his words being amplified and transmitted to the audience, and continued: "Your Excellency, I have already guessed your identity. He is an upright person. It's just that I guessed wrong, I never thought that the duel you proposed to me would be so unfair."

"You really impress me, but I underestimated you before." Heathcliff narrowed his eyes and said warmly, "Now that I have reached this point, I might as well tell you that I am also the 100th floor boss. By the way, maybe you You will know this name, I am Akihiko Kayaba."

"I originally thought that you would not expose rash incidents in consideration of Hengai's safety, but I didn't expect..."

Zhao Shangyuan also squinted his eyes, his eyes were full of coldness, "Do you think I will accept threats?"

Heathcliff had a good plan at first, and originally wanted to kill Heng Ai directly, but he gave up if he failed; it doesn't matter if his identity is found out, as long as they know that they are game masters, for the safety of Heng Ai, they will definitely not kill him. Dare to act rashly.As long as he wins the duel and takes away Hengai, but does not attack her for the time being, in order to keep her, those who know the inside story will keep silent.In this way, not only can they study why they can break through the system restrictions, but also keep their identities secret.

As for losing in a duel... In fact, Heathcliff has never thought about this kind of problem. He has system protection, and he never thought that Zhao Shangyuan could use his exquisite swordsmanship to break out his system protection, and even He broke his identity.

"Forget it," the plan was disrupted, it was his own fault for underestimating people, Heathcliff didn't show any anger, "Although I left much earlier than expected, I have to go .”

"Wait a minute, Your Excellency Kayaba."

Zhao Shangyuan stood with his sword in his hand, staring at Heathcliff with cold black eyes. After a long while, he sneered, slightly mocking, "You deceived your members with a false identity, and played tricks on me with an unfair duel. , Heathcliff, are you so cowardly that you just want to walk away?"

"What do you think?" Upon hearing his sarcasm, Heathcliff asked very calmly without changing his expression.

"Remove your redundant system protection, and come to a fair duel with me, using your real strength." Zhao Shangyuan looked at him, not letting go of any expression on his face, "The previous agreement is void, this time The lottery of the duel... If you win, Yokoai and I will be at your disposal."

"It's just that if you lose," he said slowly, "then, if I defeat the BOSS of the hundredth floor, it will count as all of us clearing the level, okay?"

"it is good."

What Zhao Shangyuan didn't expect was that Heathcliff agreed so simply.He opened the system panel, quickly removed the system protection, picked up the sword and shield again, and slowly assumed a combat posture.

At this time, Heathcliff's HP is 40%, and Zhao Shangyuan's is 50%.

Although the game started to be inextricably fought again, all the audience outside the field exploded after learning that Heathcliff was actually the game manager and the 100th-floor boss, discussing and expressing their disbelief. Confident intense anger.

No one can act as if nothing had happened after being tricked for a while. Seeing that the person they admired the most turned out to be the culprit who locked themselves into this game, the anger of the players reached a peak, and they wished to kill Heathcliff. Unload eight pieces.

However, for the sake of fairness, the duel field is protected by the system, and non-duel participants are not allowed to enter the field.So even though the players hated Heathcliff to the bottom of their hearts, they were still helpless and could only look anxiously at the scene in the duel arena.

Fang Hengai calmed down. Since Zhao Shangyuan can use Heathcliff's system protection, he can go one step further and defeat Heathcliff.So she is very confident, not as anxious as other players.

The battle in the duel arena became more and more fierce. After Heathcliff lifted the system protection, his strength seemed to have improved to a higher level. He fought with Zhao Shangyuan inextricably. The upper hand made everyone extremely nervous.

Until the HP of both of them was reduced to 10%, Zhao Shangyuan, who had been attacking silently, suddenly started talking:

"I admire your desire to create a real different world, but your method of trapping players into the world and binding their game life to real life is not advisable."

"Oh? What's your opinion?" Heathcliff raised his eyebrows. He was somewhat interested in other people's views on his ideal.

"Instead of starting with the reality of the player, why not start with the reality of the world? In such an obvious online game world, apart from the fact that the player is real, which other things are real?" He said slowly , "Have you ever thought about what kind of game world is the real world that looks like reality?"

Heathcliff didn't speak, his brow was furrowed, obviously thinking.

"Do you understand why Yoko Ai and I exceeded the limit of the system?" There was a slight smile in his voice, "Because, we are now in a 'play within a play'."

Then, he met Heathcliff's shocked eyes.Ignoring the many questions he hadn't said yet, Zhao Shangyuan took advantage of his distraction and rushed forward, pointing the tip of his sword at his throat.

"Admit defeat, Heathcliff," he said, "If you understand me, then don't worry about this failed SAO world anymore. There are still many things waiting for you to discover in the future." Zhao Shangyuan paused, then continued, "You are also a genius, I believe you can do it."

As his words fell to the ground, Heathcliff closed his eyes silently, opened them again, and said slowly: "I admit defeat."

There was thunderous applause from the auditorium, and everyone knew excitedly that Heathcliff's surrender represented the end of this world. They persisted for two years and finally waited for the day when they left this world.

At the same time, Zhao Shangyuan, Fang Hengai and other five people waited until the day they left the game.

Heathcliff looked at Zhao Shangyuan with complicated eyes, and his figure slowly dissipated into the air.With Heathcliff gone, the huge castle in SAO also began to fall, and slowly shattered and collapsed.

Players have logged out of the game one after another, and many people who have established a deep friendship in the game are saying goodbye, including Kirito and Asuna, who have exchanged contact information.

As for the Great Thousand World gamers, they also exchanged contact information and agreed to meet again later.Coincidentally, Fang Hengai and Zhao Shangyuan are both in City C, Huanzi Zhu and Ye Qingyi are both in City S, and Esther is in City H not far from City C.

"See you, Penguin, after logging out!" Asda winked at them, and was the first to log out.

Huanzi Zhu and Ye Qingyi were still in the same city's astonishment. After saying a few words, they started discussing where the food in S city is the best, and clamored to have a meal together as soon as they went offline.Then the two foodies quickly said goodbye to Fang Hengai and Zhao Shangyuan, and couldn't wait to go offline to eat.

Only Fang Hengai and Zhao Shangyuan were left standing in place.

"We'll meet soon, Heng Ai, no, Fang Hengai." Zhao Shangyuan blinked slowly at her, but when she was shocked and wanted to ask why he knew her real name, she decisively clicked Login Pressing the button, only left her with a suspenseful, somewhat sly smile.

"Congratulations to player number 005, Heng Ai, who has successfully passed the first closed test and obtained the qualification for the second closed test. All player information, equipment and skills will be preserved, and will be used to continue the journey in the future."

"Thank you for your support of "Big Thousand Worlds", friends, and we will see you soon."

With the end of the system prompt, Fang Hengai felt the world around her gradually dissipate, her head sank suddenly, and when she opened her eyes again, she had returned to reality.

The author has something to say: the sword is over, back to reality.
