The war with <Smiling Coffin> ended for more than a month, and the heavy loss of the clearing team has not been recovered well. That action caused the clearing team to lose a lot of available combat power, and a lot of resources were wasted. People panic.

There are also a large part of the strategy team who kill people for self-protection, and their mentality has also been hit afterward, and it is not easy to recover.

Mana felt that Chen looked at her strangely during this period of time, and she couldn't describe that feeling. Although she used to often find that his eyes would leave the ceiling and put them on her from time to time, but recently his eyes are really strange. Strange, still very focused and serious, still as bright as the stars, but there is an emotion similar to inquiry.

It was like looking at the white mice used in the experiment. Of course, Mana had never seen the white mice, she just had such a strange feeling.

Chen is not the only one who has problems. Lian also looks at her strangely. How can I say that in the past Lian looked at people without emotion. His eyes can smile. He is so kind to everyone and has no affection for anyone. , There is a meaning of treating you all as cabbages and radishes.

But recently, Lian's eyes on her are also full of inquiry, a kind of inquiry that is different from Kechen.If Chen is relying on the tacit understanding between the two to find out the differences in her, then Lian seems to want to discover more of the differences that she already has.Because in the past, Lian never thought of trying to understand her better.

The most abnormal one is Liar, who is still obediently on the top when there is a shortage of people at the front line. Every day, he runs to the floors below and doesn't know what he is doing.Chen went to question him about the change in the crusade plan that he concealed, and the result was unsatisfactory as Mana could imagine. Liar is best at perfunctory and sloppy, and he can make you give up with a few words In his own words, the topic he wants to discuss is a kind of language art. Although he is not in business, he is more cunning than all businessmen. Lian also said that this is due to social experience.

Mana and Chen were both unconvinced, but there was nothing they could do about it. What else could they do but endure before they were more advanced than him?

The current frontline is the 75th floor. This floor has been conquered for more than ten days. The map of the labyrinth area is still dark. Kirito, who showed his supernatural power, didn't know where to go.

Kirito's reputation was already comparable to that of the most famous guild leader, Heathcliff, and the two who also possessed unique skills held a vigorous PK not long ago.Because the tickets were not cheap, Mana didn't go to watch the game, but Liar, for some reason, went to join in the fun.

No matter how exciting it is, PK is nothing more than a fight. At that level of fighting, you may not even be able to see the attack clearly. Mana feels that there is really no need to spend a lot of money on it.

However, when Kirito performed the special sword skill of two swords, Mana was not far from him. The visual effect at that time was really amazing. Seeing Kirito and the blue-eyed demon's HP drop together, I was shocked At the same time, there is no lack of pleasure.The thrill of pursuing extreme speed.

Mana felt that since it was the system's support, the power of the skills should not have much to do with people. From her understanding, the so-called dual-sword style means adding an extra weapon, which doubles the attack power. Seeing that Kirito singled out the boss You can know how powerful that is, but her understanding is simply ridiculous to those who are professional in combat.

"I've only heard of special skills. They can only be obtained when they reach the 'best' level in certain aspects. The stage I participated in the development has not yet been designed. That child, probably because of his unrivaled reaction speed allows him to obtain It’s a hack-like skill.”

When Mana expressed her opinion, Liar said so, but when he mentioned another owner of a special skill, he showed a very blank expression, with a contradictory and hesitant expression .

The head of the Knights of the Blood Alliance, even Mana has heard of it, is a very great and great head, who can establish the number one guild in people's hearts, there must be something unusual.

For some reason, there have been a lot of things going wrong recently. Mana’s weapon has been strengthened to plus 43, which is almost at its limit. She really likes that weapon, and the fact that her beloved object may have to be replaced makes her very happy. depressed.

She planned to negotiate with Lial, this weapon must become part of the next weapon, but Mana hoped to retain part of the appearance, and wondered if the foundry could control this.

Liar has been wandering around the 22nd floor recently, which is very strange, and on today's rare rest day, Chen also ran there with him, and Mana found them after chasing the map.

They were not the only ones they found, but also Kirito and Asuna, who hadn't heard much recently.

One is the only two-handed swordsman, and the other is the beautiful deputy head of the Knights of the Blood Alliance. There is always news about these two well-known figures, but I haven't heard anything about them recently.

It turned out that he hid here to play happily...

The main street on the second floor of No.20 has only a very small village, which is not commensurate with the vast scope of this floor. The huge lake in the center divides the labyrinth area and the main street.Their location is near the outer edge of the southern end of the floor. There are countless large and small lakes on this floor, and they are standing on the edge of one of the lakes.

The scenery on this floor is also extremely beautiful. At the beginning, because I was obsessed with the strategy, and this floor was not difficult, I got through it in less than a week, so no one appreciated it carefully.Now it seems that McGee, who likes fishing, can also count this layer as one of the fishing spots.Now he probably stays fishing by the lake on a certain floor.

Chen was the first to notice Mana, and she was still far away. Chen just sensed it, and subconsciously turned his body to the side facing her, then squinted his eyes and looked into the distance. The enemy skill made him see Mana's figure at the first time, and when he saw her walking over, Chen nodded his head as a gesture. Between them, just one movement and one expression is enough, that is a kind of tacit understanding.

The combination of these people standing together has a very uncoordinated sense of sight, but since they are all people with a certain strength in the strategy team, it’s okay to get together. Mana doesn’t care, she stands beside Chen, Say hello to Kirito and Asuna on the opposite side.

They were all dressed in casual clothes and looked in a good mood, which proved that the rest day was not wasted in vain. The purpose of the rest day was to relax.

Liar didn't know what to do by the lake, Mana's main target was him, so after talking with Chen, she went to call Liar.

Looking closer, I saw a surprising picture. Liar was not alone, he was holding a little girl's hand.

"This child..."

Mana was surprised and didn't know what to say. It was a little girl who was only six or seven years old from the outside. SAO should have an age limit. People under the age of 16 couldn't get it at all. Occasionally there would be some younger A little bit of children secretly put on machines bought by other people in the family, so they were trapped in this world, but most of them were still able to take care of themselves.However, it was the first time Mana saw such a young child.

How did such a small child survive till now?

Mana looked at the innocent little girl with a smile, and carefully picked wild flowers on the grass and presented them to Liar. That innocent look really didn't look like she could hunt monsters. Not very stable, it is impossible to go out to fight monsters.

So Mana thought of another possibility. Maybe there was a relative who entered this world with the child and was always protecting her.

"It's cute."

Liar took the little girl's hand and said to Mana with a smile, as if he was praising his child, which made Mana feel very incredible.

That cunning Liar would show such a loving side!It didn't look like an act at all, but if he set his mind on such a young child, Mana thought, she might lose her temper at Liar.

Mana was hesitating, so she didn't reply to Liar in time. She didn't know what her expression was now, but she inadvertently caught a glimpse of the child, who was shrinking behind Liar in a panic.

She tried to smile at the kid, who probably had a bad impression of her now because of Lial.

Children are actually easy to coax, and Mana's fierce expression on Liar made her panic, but then she smiled at her and she would get close.Mana looked at the little girl standing in front of her under Lial's push, tried to look as friendly as possible, then bent down and smiled and asked, "What's your name?"

This little girl is not afraid of strangers. It seems that as long as you are kind to her, she will show you a healing smile. Mana can't help but worry.

This child, shouldn't be deceived by Liar.

The little girl broke away from Liar's holding her hand, stretched out her hands towards Mana, and walked towards Mana unsteadily.

"Yuyi." The little girl said in a childish voice, "My name is Yui."

"Auntie, give me a hug."

Mana had an indescribable feeling that being called an aunt at her age should make her angry for a while, but this child overflowed her heart only with affection, and there was no dissatisfaction at all.

She squatted down, stretched out her arms, and caught Xiao Yui who fell ahead because of her unsteady walking.
