My system is broken will

The 22nd floor is a floor composed of forests and lakes. The name of the town area is [Golal], which is located on the south bank of the central lake. The north bank is the maze area, and everything else is forest. This has become a rare place on the 22nd floor.

The reason is that there are not even many villages.

The white ghosts mentioned in rumors are in the forest of the maze area. Since it is a maze area, there will inevitably be battles and the possibility of encountering BOSS or key monsters. A year ago, you might still feel that

Troublesome, now it can be completely ignored by Feng Chen.

"Ghosts are like human children, but they will run away when they see players." That's all that can be analyzed from the information obtained. No, this cannot be called intelligence at all - it can only be regarded as

It's just hearsay, and rumors that it's famous may be a bit exaggerated.

If you see a player running away, first rule out monsters that are not threatening or malicious to the player, maybe an NPC.

But you can guess from these words that the other party is not an NPC that will trigger the task when it reaches a certain range. As long as it is seen, it will run away.

"It's like it's set up by the system."

Now that "system settings" are mentioned, Feng Chen doesn't need to think about what they are.

On the shore of the lake, several casual players are fishing. This kind of thing is very common in SAO. It started to happen after the 22nd floor gradually became the living area of ​​low-level players. Because the lake in the middle may be the largest in the game, there are many

Players like to come here to fish.

Fortunately, Feng Chen's ID has not been passed down to the lower levels, only a general image and title have been passed out. And Bella also made relevant disguises - using props that can temporarily change the look, and dyeing her hair white

At first, Bella wanted to dye it black like Feng Chen, but Feng Chen insisted on dyeing it white. After all, the great man said: The habit of removing putty is white hair.

"Are you going out for a walk again today? I'm so envious. We have nothing to do all day, and we don't know many players. Unlike you, you have a sister who can accompany you."

If this was said by a player, Feng Chen might respond, but...

The person in front of me is an uncle who is at least 40 years old. According to the wonderful law that dead otakus will be reincarnated into magicians when they reach thirty years old, he is definitely not a player.

It's a real NPC, and it appeared without warning not long ago.

Not long after this NPC appeared, Feng Chen understood one thing - this game, just as Kayaba Akihiko thought, was transforming into a real [world].

(If this is really the case...)

Is there a possibility that while Kayaba Akihiko is working hard to transform this game into [the world] and improve it - someone is trying to obtain the highest level of this world through some relationships or channels with Kayaba Akihiko?

Management rights.

When he first came into contact with SAO, Feng Chen was full of infinite fantasies about this world - even if there was no [reality] with Feng Chen. Only after he really came into contact with SAO did Feng Chen know what this world regarded as a game was like.

How many possibilities are there.

Kayaba Akihiko was unhappy with using the lives of 10,000 people for experiments, but it did not affect his love for this game. Just like he examines life and all the beauty in the world, this game is also the beauty in his heart

thing.

······

The girl standing in front of me has waist-length black hair and a spotless white dress. She is as lively and cute as a fairy from a fairy tale. No, maybe it is not accurate to say that she is a girl, because——

This is a [girl] younger than Silica.

After seeing Feng Chen, he turned around and ran deeper.

"etc!"

The monsters inside pose no threat to Feng Chen at all, but this girl is different. She is not a player in the strategy group, and she has not...

Even Feng Chen used [Time and Space Break] to catch up, but it was useless. The opponent was actually able to move freely within the Time and Space Break.

(Is it unintentional?)

According to the content of the original work, the girl did not remember everything at this time, and all defensive methods were passively triggered.

After turning a corner, the girl disappeared from Feng Chen's sight.

"[White Ghost]..."

Feng Chen has already guessed a lot about the girl's identity, but why does she appear here? According to the original book, among the players who are full of despair and fear, Kirito and Asuna are a few exceptions, so they appear here.

in front of two people.

Doesn't Feng Chen feel that he is anything special? He even feels that he is a source of negative energy.

"Today, I couldn't stand in front of him and speak properly."

After the wind and dust left, the girl walked out from somewhere. At the same time, she talked to herself in a tone of disappointment or joy.

"But that skill is really scary. It can slow down the passage of time, and the proficiency has not reached MAX. If it reaches MAX, will it have more powerful abilities? For example, it can pause time."

Things like time-stopping are extremely rare abilities, whether in legends or fairy tales. Fengchen's [Eye of Balor] has many similar images based on it. But time-stopping, in

Feng Chen really doesn’t know what the legendary examples are. Among the settings he knows, there are few - [The Wrold], [Star Platinum·The Wrold] and Red Devil.

The head maid of the hotel, that's all he knew.

Apart from time-stopping, there are more abilities related to time, but none of them have much to do with Feng Chen.

"Well, maybe it can make time go faster or go backwards?"

The girl who stayed where she was thought for a while and ran out of the maze area.

In its direction is Fengchen's hut.

Before she gets to the cabin, the cabin will have another guest.

"So, why did you find this place?"

Sitting directly opposite Feng Chen was Asuna, the deputy leader of the [Blood Alliance Knights] and the heroine of the original novel.

Unexpectedly, Asuna glanced at Feng Chen even more helplessly, and after a moment said: "Who asked someone to be so careless when moving? If he jumped directly from the 10th floor to the 22nd floor, maybe there wouldn't be so many things."

If you waste a transfer crystal and move, Feng Chen won't be so generous. Although the guarding BOSS room is a crystal invalid area, crystals can still be used outside the room.

"So, is Captain Asuna here to supervise whether I practice properly every day, or is she here to be a light bulb?"

If we don’t talk about this light bulb, there may not be much more to come.
