() "What, what's going on?" Yuuki whispered beside Kirito in confusion. The scene in front of the Demon King's door made everyone hold their breath and stop. Xiaoji and Ajun, who were running in front, also rubbed their boots against the ground.

Apply emergency brake.

The last thirty meters from the corridor to the Demon King's room have been blocked by about twenty players. These people are of different races. The only thing they have in common is that they all have shields and horizontal horse guilds next to their cursors.

The icon is the same as the three people hiding in front of the door just now.

At first he felt that it was too late, but Kirito found that the number of people in front of the door was too small. Twenty people, that is, three teams, was not even half of the total of seven teams of forty-nine people. Their members who participated in the strategy should not have been there yet.

It was a very bold move to choose the gathering place at the deepest part of the maze, and it was obvious that these people must be quite anxious.

"It doesn't matter, it seems we still have another chance to challenge." Kirito stepped forward and patted Yuuki's shoulder gently. Under everyone's hopeful expressions, he stood directly in front, looking at his most armed body.

The expensive male earth elf player said: "Sorry, we want to challenge the Demon King, can you please make way?"

"Sorry, this place is currently on lockdown." This earth elf, who had his arms folded as if to show off his thick arms, actually said something that left Kirito completely unexpected and even a little speechless.

"Blocked!? What do you mean?" Kirito, who was speechless for a moment, finally squeezed out the question. The earth elf moved his eyebrows exaggeratedly, and then continued in a normal tone: "Next, our guild will

The challenge is still being prepared, please wait here for a moment."

"Wait...how long?" Kirito frowned, instinctively feeling something bad in his heart, and asked with a hint of expectation.

"Well, about an hour or so." By now, no matter how stupid Kirito is, he has understood their intentions. His travels in the three worlds have already made him understand too many selfish humanoids. These people are not just arranging in front of the Demon King's room.

The reconnaissance team only collects intelligence. When other groups that may succeed in the attack appear, they will use a large number of troops to physically block them. Recently, I did hear that some high-level players caused problems because they monopolized hunting locations, but I didn't expect it.

How dare they carry out such blatant occupation in a neutral area.

In the past 'Aincrad', this kind of barbaric and violent style would never have appeared except in the army... If you ask why, it was because in that 'world' there were rules that could never be broken.

, that is to make people die. Sometimes, Kirito even knelt down and asked some high-level players to join in the strategy, because in his heart he really did not want to see any of his companions who had just fought together die.

"We can't wait that long. It's a different matter if you want to challenge him soon. If not, let us go in first." Kirito tried his best to suppress his anger and finally said in a calm tone.

"That's what you said..." The earth elf continued brazenly: "But we came first, you have to line up."

"Then you should be ready to come again. We can start the strategy at any time but have to wait for an hour. This is so unreasonable." To be honest, Kirito felt that his temper had reached the limit. If he was standing next to him but

Ding, maybe the demon has already transformed and killed him.

"So, even if you complain, I can't help you. This is an order from above. If you have any objections, go to the guild headquarters to negotiate with them. Our headquarters is in World Tree City."

"It will really take an hour to get there!" Kirito finally couldn't bear it anymore and had to shout back. He took a deep breath to calm himself down. No matter how he negotiated, the other party didn't seem to give way. The deal would definitely not work.

, the charm of defeating the Demon King is not only the props, but also non-substantial rewards such as huge skill points and leaving your name on the Swordsman's Monument. These guys should not accept such inducements.

If this kind of problem was in the past games, you could complain to the GM, but since the addition of 'Aincrad', disputes between players have been resolved by the players themselves, and the GM basically only feels the problems caused by the system.

Resisting the urge to draw his sword and charge forward, Kirito was just about to turn around and go back when his shoulder was patted by Yuuki who came to his side. He stared at the earth elf with his beautiful amethyst eyes.

Yes, he asked in his usual energetic voice: "You mean, no matter how much we beg you, you are not going to make way for us to have a confrontation?"

"Honestly... that's what happened." Hearing Yuuki's straightforward statement, the earth elf couldn't help but blinked, but immediately returned to its unruly attitude and nodded.

"Really? There is no other way but to resort to force." Hearing Yuuki speak extremely dangerous words despite being full of energy, Kirito and the earth elves both let out surprised sounds.

There is no doubt that players can be attacked unconditionally in neutral areas, but there are still some private taboos about attacking players. Sometimes, when they encounter extremely narrow-minded players, they may even resent them.

Bring it to online communities outside the game or to real-life injuries.

"Such...such a thing..." Kirito opened his mouth, and for a moment he didn't know how to express what he wanted to say, but Yuuki just patted him on the back and said: "Kirito-san, there are some things.

You still have to use strong methods to make the other party understand, for example, when you want the other party to understand how serious you are like now."

"Well, you're right." Ah Chun behind him also nodded in agreement. Kirito turned around in surprise and immediately found that the other five people had also grasped their weapons again as a matter of course.

The petite dark elf girl pulled out the long sword from her waist in front of the earth elf who had not yet recovered from the surprise, and then pointed the tip of the sword at the sky. The smile on her lips had disappeared, and a serious light appeared in her eyes. The next moment

, the girl swept across the entire corridor like a whirlwind.

The earth elf, who finally understood what was going on, wrinkled his nose and roared loudly. At the same time, he waved the huge ax in his hand, but his movements were too slow. Yuuki's obsidian sword turned into a black trajectory and penetrated directly.

The opponent's chest is in the center.

The chest was attacked, and the earth elf screamed in panic and lost its balance. Then Yuuki added a frontal slash, and the long sword made a heavy sound before cutting into the earth elf's shoulder, causing HP

Articles were significantly reduced.

The delicate dark elf girl finally added a four-hit 'horizontal four-way slash'. The earth elf screamed and flew several meters away, and the HP bar dropped to the red area in one breath. When his eyes returned again

When he reached Yuuki, the expression on his face changed from shock to indignation, and he said solemnly: "It's so... so despicable, you attacked me secretly!"

Kirito didn't think there was anything wrong with Yuuki's actions. What really affected him might just be the memory of the past. Looking at the giant ax coming down head-on, he smiled slightly, opened his lips in an invisible arc and said: "Look

What Dante said is absolutely correct, I still have a long way to go." The next moment, he had already drawn the long sword behind him and moved towards the giant ax in front of him.

"Hey!" The earth elf suddenly felt a soft feeling of weakness, and the giant ax struck the ground hard.

With a single stroke of the long sword in Kirito's right hand, a large amount of virtual bright red blood sprayed out from the opponent's neck, and then a normal X-shaped slash cut into the shoulders of the opponent's back, hitting the human body three times in a row.

In the most vulnerable part, even the earth elf, which mainly uses defense power, can only let out a low scream of reluctance, and its body is broken into a light red cluster of life fire, waiting for other players to use resurrection magic or half of it.

Automatically resurrect at the town save point after hours.

"Damn it! How dare you... (Thinking about names is the most annoying thing!)" There was a loud roar from behind, and an earth elf, who was also an earth elf, rushed up with his hands raised and holding a giant sword.

Just when the giant sword was about to hit Kirito's head, an arm stretched out like a ghost and hit the side of the giant sword hard. The strong arm strength knocked the giant sword away, and then

The severe pain in his chest made the big man scream and fly out.

When the physical skill ended, Kirito used the 'Four Combo' sword skill without hesitation, causing four levels of pain to hit the opponent's chest. Then, under the astonished gaze of the opponent, he could not see the effect of the sword skill at the end.

Any stiff body rushed forward quickly, and with a 'clang' sound, he pulled out a black one-handed sword from behind again, and used a double fan-shaped sword technique to cut the opponent's HP to 0.

In less than two minutes, all 20 players in the team were killed by Kirito's seven players. Such a record can be described as horrifying. Nearly ten players among them died in Kirito.

hand.

"Brother Kirito, you..." Yuuki stared at Kirito with big round eyes like amethyst in surprise, who was holding a sword in each hand. "I see... you were useless in the last battle.

Do your best.”
