The Age of Heroic Spirits in the Eyes of the Reincarnated

Chapter 37 His figure is shining!

After a nice bath, it was a little late, so Li Xia took Asuna back to the town inn.

Along the way, the two chatted a lot.

They were even asked how they viewed the closed beta testers.

"Hey, Captain Li Xia, what do you think of those closed beta testers?"

The face covered by the cloak could not show his emotions.

"Why do you ask that?"

"Because some people have always accused them of being cold-blooded, accusing them of abandoning their companions and pursuing their own interests... But you, Captain Li Xia, have been actively and enthusiastically sharing information with ordinary players, and even compiled useful free booklets for them, such as [Survival Guide for Salted Fish Players] and [Guide for the Improvement of Mid-level Players]."

As she spoke, the 15-year-old blonde girl took out two small booklets.

It was a survival manual provided by someone for the vast majority of players.

Those who entered this death game were naturally not just adults, but also many minors like her, even children of eight or nine years old and elderly people in their seventies and eighties.

And there were quite a few of them.

It's not impossible to let those children and the elderly go to the front line to attack the floor, but it's totally unnecessary.

In addition, some people are indeed cowardly, weak to the core. It's okay for them to hide in the back to do some small business, fight small monsters, and contribute a little to the logistics of the entire player group, but if you let them go to the front line to face death, it will be more difficult for them than taking their lives on the spot.

These are obvious things, but the only person who really implements and sorts out and reconciles them is the one in front of her:

"Captain Li Xia, I want to ask you, can this game really change the essence of a person?"

She doesn't know why there are so many differences between people?

Li Xia blinked: "Hey, you actually went to the grocery store to pick up these little things I wrote?"

"Well, thank you for doing it for all the players."

It was because she knew that the person in front of her was a good person that she dared to go to his house to take a bath and visit him.

If she didn't have a hurdle in her heart and was afraid of being abandoned by the people around her again, she would have accepted the invitation to join the club.

"Actually, I'm not as good as you think. I just want a better result.

In addition, I'm actually a bit mean.

You just don't know my other side."

Looking at the beautiful starry sky of the SAO game world, Li Xia pondered for a moment, then asked:

"You asked me about the closed beta testers. Do you have a grudge against one of them?

If you can, you might as well tell me. I will keep it a secret for you."

And Asuna really needs someone to talk to.

She needs to vent the sadness in her heart.

So, she roughly recounted the story between herself and her best friend Usagi:

"A friend of mine in the real world, after coming to this world, is also a friend who relies on each other and is inseparable.

We have always been so good, but I don't know why she chased a wild monster for rare equipment at that time.

Compared to my safety, she chose equipment...

Before that, we clearly always supported each other...

Why did it become like this?"

Tears fell down.

That grievance, held back for too long.

"Tell me what wild monster she was chasing."

"It was a rat monster."

"Rat monster? Are you sure?"

"Yes."

"So...what weapon does she usually use?"

"Scythe."

"I see, I think I understand."

Li Xia touched her chin thoughtfully.

"Understand what?"

The girl took off her cloak, her face full of curiosity.

"The equipment dropped by rat monsters is usually one-handed swords, which is your usual equipment. And she uses a scythe, so she naturally won't compete with you for equipment. In other words, she chased the rat monster at that time, and it might not be for herself..."

"Huh?!"

...

December 2022.

The player group initially formed the awareness of forming a strategy group to conquer the maze floor.

On the 3rd, the first small-scale early strategy group team embarked on the journey.

The top of the first floor maze, the boss room.

When everyone entered in a line, the door behind them closed immediately.

The originally dim room instantly became a colorful and bright one.

Deep in the room.

On the throne.

A dog-headed man several meters tall with four blood bars suddenly opened his eyes and stood up.

Its weapons are a long axe and a round shield, and it is wearing iron armor. It has three skills: blocking, weapon exchange, and defense breaking.

When the blood bar drops to the last one, it will switch its weapon to a forbidden machete that can release group impact and group paralysis skills.

As long as there are more than 3 players around it, this skill can be triggered continuously.

Originally.

If everyone has mastered this accurate information and is more careful, there should be no casualties.

But Li Xia, who is foresighted, did not disclose the news about the forbidden machete.

He just warned everyone in the guild not to let anyone go forward to grab the boss's last blow! Everyone should save their lives!

As for why he didn't say it?

Put yourself in his shoes, and you will understand.

One reason is that he didn't want to reveal himself as the kind of person who has foresight. After all, the information he obtained from multiple intelligence channels was that "the boss will switch to a scimitar as a weapon when his blood is only left."

People said it was switching to a machete, but he said the boss would switch to a forbidden machete.

Isn't this voluntarily exposing another identity of oneself that one doesn't want others to know?

Furthermore, he wanted to use the boss's hand to test Kirito's identity one last time.

then.

Just when everyone worked together to deal with the boss and the attached elite monsters, they successfully defeated the guarding kobold until there was only one health bar left, and it was in a very low health state.

"Chance!"

"It's finished!"

It's time to grab the knife!

"Team C, surround the boss, I will deal with it."

Many of the people who were not guild members, led by a blue-haired figure, attacked the kobold.

That figure was none other than Diaber.

The C team he called was the team he was in, and the team was all his fellow testers.

In the original work, this guy did the same thing.

"clear."

Six or seven people left the attached mobs to other teams, while they and others were preparing to take the final blow to kill the boss and obtain the only equipment reward.

Then, the boss threw away the long ax and buckler in his hand, and pulled out the forbidden machete wrapped in layers of gauze hanging from his waist.

The moment the forbidden machete showed its edge, Tuze and other top beta testers who participated in this strategy operation all changed their colors, and some even exclaimed:

"No, the information is wrong! Back away!"

"Diyaberu, come back, the information about this gatekeeper boss has changed from the situation during the closed beta!"

"What it uses is not a scimitar, but a forbidden sword... Any boss carrying that weapon will have group skills triggered!"

"Everyone, disperse quickly!"

Unfortunately, it's too late.

The kobold boss was already surrounded by several people who triggered group skills.

A wave of air swept away, and all players within ten meters were paralyzed.

It's hard to even move a finger.

"roar…"

The kobold opened its mouth wide and sprayed saliva on Diaberu's head and face, which fell in front of him, causing him to lose all color in an instant, and his pupils were filled with fear:

"How could...how could this happen?"

The rest of the people wanted to rescue, but the large-scale paralysis effect on their bodies was still there, and they were unable to provide any help at all.

What's more, they also have to face attacks from attached mobs.

You know, the information given in the intelligence is: there are only three elite mobs around the boss. If the boss is not killed, these mobs will reappear even if they are killed.

But in fact, after the boss only has one health tank left, it can summon up to six elite mobs!

Twice as many as in the information!

And each mob also requires a team of three or four people to deal with it to ensure that there are no accidental casualties!

Therefore, for non-guild players, everyone has too much time to take care of themselves, and there is no time left to rescue them.

The forbidden sword slashed fiercely at the blue-haired young man.

With just two swords, the damage can exceed the young man's current safe blood line, and the damage will overflow to achieve an instant kill.

"Diabell!"

Kibaou, who had been drinking together, let out a heartbreaking cry.

He hoped more than ever for a miracle.

"Pfft..."

One knife.

Diaber screamed and flew out, and the originally green blood bar turned dangerously red.

Exclamation marks almost filled his eyes, so eye-catching.

This made him suffocate with despair.

But the second knife struck again!

If the sword comes to you, you will definitely die.

At this time:

"Swish swish..."

More than twenty kunai-like throwing concealed weapons attacked the kobold boss from different directions.

That was issued by the elites of the Liberator Guild.

It also really interrupted the Kobold boss's life-threatening offensive.

"Can this still happen?"

All non-guild members present showed expressions of astonishment, shock, and even surprise.

"The damage caused by a throwing weapon is definitely not enough to draw away the boss's hatred and interrupt its rhythm; but if the number is large enough, the nature will be different."

Li Xia, who jumped out to Diaberu's side, hugged the guy and ran back, explained softly.

His figure seemed to be dyed with a warm luster at this moment.

His voice is even more refreshing.
