Chapter 197

Chapter 197 Who is the “brave”?

"You will know after the twentieth floor. I hope you can bring me enough surprises."

Kayaba Akihiko looked up at the sky and turned into a ball of particles from his feet to his head.

He didn't notice that in just a split second, a special piece of equipment that had not been detected by the game appeared on Bai Ye's arm.

The swastika "Infinite Realm" appeared for the first time in the Sword Art Online game. The main computer hidden on the fifth underground floor of the head office actually experienced lag.

The frame of Sword Art Online even dropped for a moment, making this supposedly perfect world appear somewhat flawed.

Now Bai Ye can use the infinite realm silently. Unless there is a need, he will not do things that would expose the swastika.

A huge data scan enveloped Kayaba Akihiko, who was about to disappear. Without his knowledge, Bai Ye had already extracted his IP address from his small amount of information.

If he didn't change his position during the game, Bai Ye could theoretically follow the network cable and hit him.

However, Bai Ye did not do that for the time being.

Kayaba Akihiko is a very stubborn person, and he will definitely not be able to make him give in through coercion. Even before his death, he will completely delete the data in the world.

At that time, people and money will really be lost.

After Kayaba Akihiko disappeared, time began to flow again.

Looking at Bai Ye who ran a few meters away at some point, Suguha tilted her head.

Brother Bai Ye originally had the ability to teleport, so why did he run when he went to fight monsters before?

Suguha had no idea that just now, the culprit of the killing game had appeared next to her, slowing down her thinking.

"Let's go fight monsters. I'm bound to get the reward after the 100th floor."

Suguha nodded in agreement, suddenly a little confused, what was the purpose of entering Sword Art Online?

It seems that with her ability in playing games, she can only shout cheers behind Brother Bai Ye and be a salty fish who can only use experience.

Even so, some people who want to be salty fish may not be able to do so.

"Hey, friend, I think your qualifications are extraordinary. Could it be that he is the brave man who saves us players?"

Suddenly, a player with a bloated body and freckles on his face who liked to stay at home and play games rushed to Bai Ye.

Without any explanation, she took his hand and spoke excitedly to Bai Ye in an ups and downs tone.

NPCs with handsome designs and well-equipped equipment like Bai Ye are simply on a different level from other NPCs.

Even if you are not a "brave", you should still know some information about him.

Otherwise, would Kayaba Akihiko still want them to look for a needle in a haystack by trying their luck among all NPCs?

What made him jealous the most was that this NPC's conversational ability was so terrifying.

How long has it been since then? There is a girl as cute as a doll next to her. If she can learn a few tricks from Bai Ye, then she will really make a lot of money.

It seems that he has temporarily ignored the difference in appearance between himself and Bai Ye.

"No, there are rumors that the Hero will appear when Aincrad's twentieth floor is breached. I don't know if this rumor is true or false."

Like a real NPC, Bai Ye answered very mechanically, without any difference from other NPCs.

"Tch, he's just another ordinary NPC. Giving him such good equipment is really a waste of resources."

Fatty noticed that after Bai Ye said something, he just looked at him with a smile and had no intention of continuing.

After taking a jealous look at Bai Ye's equipment, he curled his lips, ran to the next NPC, and said the same words again.

"Brother Bai Ye, if nothing else happens, the life that Kayaba Akihiko is talking about should be you. Why are you lying?"

Suguha looked at the fat man in the distance who was getting angry because all the NPCs in the square had nothing to do with the hero, and asked in confusion.

If Bai Ye admits his identity at this time, the players trapped in the game world will have hope in their hearts.

Don't lose sight of hope for a long time and end up short-sighted in the game.

Even Asuna, the heroine in the original work, had the thought of dying at the hands of monsters at the beginning of the game.

Not to mention other players who are younger and have worse mentality.

"Because... there is no benefit, and Suguha, you have to know that in addition to hope, human beings also have a darker side in their hearts.

It's good to say that the strategy has always been successful. If something happens in the team, even if I didn't do it, most people will probably blame me. "

Bai Ye shook his head, but didn't say a word.

That is, if a similar incident really happened, he would let those people stay in this game world forever without the need for a gaming helmet.

I really thought that since I was given the title of "brave" by Kayaba Akihiko, I would really become glorious.

No kidding.

"It seems...that's true. No matter other people, no matter what happens, I will stand by Brother Bai Ye's side."

Suguha nodded and said firmly,

It is best to always be alert when dealing with strangers, but Brother Bai Ye is not a stranger.

Grandpa seems to want to make a marriage contract or something...

Suguha touched her somewhat hot face, wondering if this game was a bit too real.

Data's body can actually react to the changes in his emotions.

......

Three hours later, many players were surprised to find that the teleportation array on the third floor was also opened.

This means that someone has successfully cleared the second floor and reached the third floor.

"It's a hero! Definitely a hero. I have a friend from the closed beta period. It is said that it took him at least 20 days to reach the third floor with the guild."

"Are you talking about this friend?"

However, most of the players hiding in the town of origin now don't care so much about who is the closed beta player.

Accumulating experience points also risks being killed by monsters in the wild. Even many closed beta players are looking for the figure of this hero in the safe area.

Unfortunately, the only information we have learned so far is that the hero will appear after the 20th floor.

The accuracy of the news is still unknown.

"However, according to the current strategy speed, we can leave this damn game in less than a month at most. By then, we must sue this broken company to bankruptcy."

The angry shouts of the players rang out in the central square.

Yasuna sat on the bench in a depressed mood.

After all, her father is Rect, the CEO of the company that released the full-dive equipment.
