Aincrad's 57th floor.

Martin.

Soma Tavern.

Kirito was taking a sip from a wine glass.

In Japan, it is forbidden to drink alcohol if you are under 18, but in the virtual world of SAO, where you will face death at any time, who cares about this?

After taking a sip, the wine here is surprisingly delicious.

Soma is the **** of wine in ancient Indian mythology, and the tavern opened by this NPC should be derived from this.

Originally the price was very high, and since the updated version of SAO, the price is even more terrifyingly high.

However, at this moment, Kirito felt a heavy knock on the shoulder.

"Yo, is it because Kirito-sama lost the challenge, so he can only be sad and drunk here?"

The voice Kirito is very familiar, as for the figure, it is even more familiar.

Because this guy wears a large black cloak all the year round, his identity should not be too strong.

Who is Argo, the most famous intelligence dealer in SAO?

Kirito smiled and said, "Yeah, I lost so badly!"

Seeing Kirito's appearance, Argo couldn't help staring into Kirito's eyes, and took a serious look.

This small gaze even made Kirito feel goosebumps all over his body.

"What are you... doing?"

Argo rolled his eyes at Kirito, "Why... are you still afraid that I will eat you?"

Kirito was speechless.

Argo couldn't help laughing.

This guy, Kirito, is clearly an important cadre of the strongest guild in the raiding group, the Wings of Freedom.

In the hearts of middle- and lower-level players, they are even somewhat similar to leaders.

However, it is unexpectedly innocent!

Argo: "Okay, I won't tease you anymore. I just took a serious look at it. You guys lost a lot not long ago, but it seems that you really don't take it too seriously!"

Argo didn't lie. Not long ago, in the battle between Kirito and Makino, the loss was really embarrassing.

To make matters worse, because the battle was carried out in public, it quickly appeared in the newspapers.

In SAO, which lacks entertainment information, this can be very sensational.

Especially when the guy who took the photo also used the recording crystal to capture the embarrassed figure of Kirito falling in front of Makino, it looked like Kirito was kneeling and begging for mercy.

The miserable index is soaring!

There are even some headline parties, and they even exaggeratedly wrote shocking titles such as "The hero of the second sword style fell to his knees and begged for mercy" and "Akihiko Kayaba miscalculated again".

Kirito has become famous recently!

Facing his friend Argo's ridicule, Kirito calmly took a sip of wine and said, "Isn't it normal for me to lose to Makino?"

Argo was speechless.

It was the first time I saw someone lose, and they were so righteous!

Argo: "Don't you have any... even a little bit of unwillingness?"

Kirito said calmly, "Of course there is. If you lose, you will definitely feel bad. I'm not an NPC!"

Argo was even more puzzled.

"Then... why do you feel like nothing is happening?"

Kirito put down his wine glass and said with emotion, "Because I really feel the hope of customs clearance from Muye!"

Speaking of this, in Kirito's mind, the sword in Makino's hand could not help but emerge.

It was an incredibly "heavy" sword, and it was at that time that Kirito first learned that the "core" injected into the Makino sword also truly understood the true source of Makino's power.

Argo was shocked, "Hope for customs clearance? Kirito, what do you feel?"

Kirito shook his head, "Don't say it, maybe it won't work if you say it."

Argo glanced at Kirito, and after confirming that Kirito was not faking things, he immediately stopped asking.

No one understands the power of intelligence better than an intelligence dealer like Argo.

Some information, that is enough to change the situation of the war.

"I really don't understand you men..."

"Maybe this is a man's romance!"

"It's still romantic... chi... Kirito, have we known each other for a long time?"

"???"

Kirito recalled that he and Argo were "old acquaintances". Strictly speaking, the two had a brief encounter during the beta test period.

After SAO was unable to log out, he became a frequent visitor to Argo.

Many times, he even bought information from Argo on behalf of the Wings of Freedom.

By the way, what does Argo mean?

Argo said quietly, "Kirito, they are all old friends, don't you invite me for a drink?"

Kirito was a little speechless, feeling that he couldn't understand Argo's brain circuits. The topic changed too quickly.

However, he still called the NPC waiter directly and ordered a big glass of cold beer for Argo.

Gugugugu~~~

After Argo took a sip, he was so relieved that he closed his eyes, and his whole body seemed unusually ecstatic.

"Ah, ah, beer that costs no money is delicious, Kirito, thank you so much!"

Kirito was speechless.

"Argo, you are almost in control of the entire SAO news and entertainment industry, do you still lack the money for beer?"

Argo nodded, "It's not lacking at all, but is it better to drink for free!"

Kirito: "..."

Seeing Kirito's appearance, Argo immediately laughed.

"Okay, I'll stop teasing you. However, after the recent SAO update, the Cole in my pocket has shrunk a lot!"

Speaking of this, Kirito felt the same way.

After the updated version of SAO, production players suffered "heavy losses".

The cost of producing various props is soaring, and players have almost lost the source of various cheap props.

As for the various props provided by NPCs, the price naturally goes up.

The only fortunate thing is that the products provided by the NPC shop are estimated to be of guaranteed quality.

Speaking of this, Argo couldn't help but complain.

"Ah, ah, recently, when we make a newspaper, we have to start with logging to make pulp. It feels like going crazy. Production players have felt the strong malice from Kayaba Akihiko!"

Kirito couldn't help but look worried.

"Yeah, in the absence of equipment and props, the progress of the strategy has slowed down significantly... I don't know what our bodies are in the real world!"

Kirito's concerns are not top secret.

One of the important motivations for the players in the Raiders team to move up is this.

Lying in bed for a long time, relying on nutrient solution to survive, how long can it last?

SAO has never been a game that can be played forever!

Argo: "Kirito, you said this new version, why do you do this? It's just slowing down our pace?"

Kirito shook his head.

He was also very surprised!

Because of this approach, it was seriously inconsistent with the Kayaba Akihiko he knew.

It doesn't seem like it was written by Kayaba Akihiko!

However, thinking of this Kirito himself, he couldn't help laughing at himself.

He said this as if he knew Kayaba Akihiko very well!

Kirito: "Stop talking about this, have you brought the information I want?"

Argo's expression turned solemn.

"Kirito, I have no ability to interfere with your decision-making, but... please be careful!"

"thanks."

Kirito nodded and thanked Argo.

After all, it is a business relationship. It is very rare for Argo to achieve this level.

After exchanging information, after chatting with Argo for a few more words, Kirito chose to leave.

Looking at Kirito's back, Argo couldn't help shouting, "Kirito..."

Kirito paused and turned around.

Argo: "Don't die!"

Kirito said solemnly, "We will survive, we will all return to the real world alive!"

After leaving the tavern, a gust of cool wind hit, and Kirito felt his head suddenly clear up a lot.

[The war with the smiling coffin...is it finally going to start? ]

That's right, the main reason why Kirito came to trade with Argo this time is because the top executives of the Wings of Freedom and the Holy Dragon have decided to attack the Smile Coffin.

Because, since the updated version of SAO, the life of players has become a lot more difficult, and people's hearts are floating.

And at this critical moment, the smiling coffin came out again to fan the flames.

These actions have made players such as Wings of Freedom and Holy Dragon United endure to the extreme.

Although only a few cores now know the decision of the crusade, this fierce battle is inevitable.

......

The 48th floor of Aincrad.

Lindas.

This is a town with criss-crossing waterways and waterwheels everywhere.

The scenery of the town is very beautiful. Although it doesn't feel like a developed steel city like the Grand Sam on the 55th floor, the rural style here has a taste of being far away from the hustle and bustle of the world.

Due to the fact that waterwheels are erected everywhere, the player's cabin can obtain enough water energy to power their work.

This also caused Linda Division to become a production base for many production players.

In view of this, in Lindas, you can often hear the hammer of the forge on the street during the day, which is one of the characteristics and selling points of this place.

And Lisbeth, the famous blacksmith of Aincrad, also opened her weapon shop here.

After a busy day, Lisbeth had a sore back and felt extremely tired.

SAO does not have real pain, but the fatigue value setting is there.

It's like feeling hungry and sleepy. It's obviously playing games, but it makes people feel more real.

Compared with the previous time when you could forge a weapon with just two hammers, if you want to forge a weapon now, the efficiency is really touching and makes the blacksmith cry.

It's like going back to the time before liberation!

Even after the version has been updated for so long, Lisbeth still hasn't adjusted her mentality.

She really couldn't understand, what's the point of the game suddenly becoming so hardcore!

At this moment, Lisbeth suddenly heard a bell rang outside the door.

Lisbeth was curious, who would come here at this time?

Since the version update, the quality of the products provided by the players in the production department cannot be guaranteed.

In addition, players have limited money in their pockets, so they usually choose to buy weapons and armor from shops opened by NPCs.

Today's shops can only provide some repair services at most.

However, at this time, the guests are more precious.

Lisbeth immediately showed the best service attitude, "Welcome to the Lisbeth Arms Store!"

However, when she finished saying those words, Lisbeth was a little stunned.

Because the face that appeared in front of her was very familiar, who was it if it wasn't Makino?

Although Lisbeth and Makino only met by chance, Makino's impression on Lisbeth was quite profound.

Because, Lisbeth's debut as a full-fledged blacksmith was completed with the help of Makino.

She has been working hard to improve the level of forging. One of the important reasons is that she hopes to forge and repair equipment for the strategy team, and provide strength for the strategy of this **** game.

Lizbet had actually done it, but the arrival of the new version poured cold water on her.

However, what Lisbeth never expected was that when she was a little disheartened, Makino, the first person in the strategy group, came to the door again.

"Why are you here, Muye?"

Lisbeth couldn't help but feel a little surprised.

"What? Not welcome?"

Seeing Lisbeth, Makino's heart was also very happy.

This point has to be said to be a bit dreamy. SAO has never had anything to do with backwardness and occlusion.

But because of the high risk, the relationship between people does not appear to be very close.

This also makes true friendship very precious!

Even though Makino and Lisbeth didn't have a deep friendship, the joy of goodbye still surrounded them.

"How come? Welcome, very welcome..."

Lisbeth's face was full of smiles, and her heart was a little excited.

However, at this moment, Lisbeth saw Asuna behind Makino.

In an instant, Lisbeth's heart couldn't help being cold, and her smile couldn't help but become rigid.

However, Asuna was also a regular customer of Lisbeth, and the relationship was very close. Lisbeth quickly calmed down, and a smile appeared on her face again.

"It's Asuna, long time no see."

Asuna was also very familiar with her, so she took off the flashing light pinned to her waist, "Liz, long time no see, I'll leave the care to you."

Lisbeth took the flickering light, pulled Asuna aside, and said gossip, "Let's not talk about repairs, you two...hehe...when did you get together? Yes, speak up, speak up!"

Asuna looked back at Makino with a sweet smile on her face.

"That's a long story. Liz will talk about it later when he is free. The sword has been seriously worn out recently. Apart from the flashing light, Makino's dark holy sword needs care."

"Also, Muye wants to ask you to help him forge a new sword!"

Seeing the smile on Asuna's face, Lisbeth didn't know what it was like.

However, she was also relieved to see Asuna so happy.

"Asuna has found the most important person in her life, congratulations!"

Asuna smiled, "Thank you. Liz should also hurry up, you are so pretty and cute."

Lisbeth waved her hand and said with a broad smile, "I...let's forget it, let's help Asuna see the twinkling light now!"

Lisbeth slowly drew out the flickering light, and a cold light appeared on the blade of the sword.

After skillfully opening the data menu of Flickering Light, Lisbeth suddenly had a headache.

"I haven't taken care of it for a long time, and the durability and sharpness have dropped seriously. Oops, I've been busy today!"

Lizbet couldn't help covering her face, feeling an unusual headache.

The better the sword, the more difficult it is to care for.

It's the best product like the flickering light, so you need to be more careful and careful when you take care of it.

What's more, after the version update, all these details need to be controlled by her, which is even more difficult.

Perceiving Lisbeth's embarrassment, Asuna said apologetically, "I'm sorry Liz, I've caused you trouble again."

Lisbeth waved her hand hurriedly, "No trouble, no trouble, I am running a weapons store after all, if there is no business at all, then it will be a real headache."

"That's right. The maintenance of the twinkling light and the dark holy sword is all up to you!"

Asuna said that, she took the Dark Holy Sword from Makino and handed it to Lisbeth.

Lisbeth habitually clicked on the data menu of the Dark Holy Sword, and the next second, Lisbeth was startled.

The data of the Dark Holy Sword is really scary, not to mention the basic values. Makino brutally raised the Holy Sword to the level of "+30".

How many precious resources does this consume?

Too embarrassing!

Seeing Lisbeth's surprised appearance, Mu Ye's heart was unavoidable.

Raising the Dark Holy Sword to +30 made Makino tremble at one point.

SAO's weapon upgrade system is really one-shot, like riding a roller coaster.

The process of caring for swords is actually quite boring, but for swordsmen, caring for their beloved swords is actually a part of their essential work.

Therefore, neither Makino nor Asuna was impatient.

What's more, watching Lisbeth take care of the sword is also a pleasure to watch.

Especially after the abolition of the streamlined program system, Lisbeth took care of the sword, and everything needed to be done by herself.

Oiling, wiping, sanding...

If you look at it carefully, it is like taking care of a work of art.

Later, even Lisbeth had a smile on her face.

Obviously, Lisbeth, the blacksmith, didn't hate this tedious work as much as she said.

Nearly an hour later, Lisbeth finally completed the maintenance of a whole set of swords.

When she returned the flickering light to Asuna, Lisbeth was relieved, and she was exhausted and collapsed.

"It's really exhausting me. Before the version update, these tasks could be completed in five minutes, but now it takes an hour. Kayaba is sincerely trying to embarrass me!"

Hearing Liz's complaint, Asuna pursed her lips and smiled. She completely got what Liz said.

In fact, let alone Asuna, even Makino was happy.

"Liz doesn't really hate the cancellation of the streamlined program... The process of Leeds taking care of the sword just now is super handsome!"

"Really, it's not that there is no fun, it's a sense of ritual and achievement. But is it always difficult for people to switch from extravagance to thrift!"

"I understand, I understand what Liz said very well. When I was cooking, I felt that the program was too simplified and lacked a lot of fun. Now, it feels too cumbersome and a waste of time..."

Asuna and Lisbeth are both "victims of the new version", not to mention how speculative they are chatting, and they can hear laughter from time to time.

After half a day.

Asuna and Lisbeth are reluctant to part with each other!

Seeing Makino and Asuna who had walked away holding hands, Lisbeth couldn't help but her eyes dimmed.

Both Asuna and Makino have found the important person in their lives, can she find it?

Seeing the various precious materials Makino left in the store, Lisbeth didn't know what to do for a while.

"It's true, Muye, he suddenly threw so many precious materials to me... I'm also very scared, okay?"

The materials that Makino left her are really good, even as SAO's current leading blacksmith, Lisbeth still has a feeling that she has no idea what to do.

Snapped!

Lisbeth slapped her face heavily with both hands.

"I don't think so, Liz, if you can do it, you will definitely be able to forge a good sword!"

Liz thought about it, and immediately took out a few pieces of white paper, and then began to write and draw on the paper.

After the new version, forging a sword, the appearance and shape of the sword need to be finalized by the designer himself.

Asuna was right. As a blacksmith, she was not as disgusted by the cumbersome blacksmithing procedures of the new version as she thought.

What's more, there are also legendary materials left by Makino.

She might be able to forge an epic piece of equipment!

......

Makino and Asuna did not rush back to the front line, but slowly inspected the players' living conditions in the new version.

Honestly, it's pretty bad!

The level of players who can live on a floor like Lindas is actually not too low.

He can even be regarded as a player in the second echelon of SAO, but this time, Makino's feeling is generally... poor!

In the new version, because the production players are generally difficult, all players have less Cole at their disposal.

And because of the cancellation of the rigid time, the difficulty of killing monsters has also increased a lot, and the speed of earning Cole will inevitably decrease.

The players collectively lived a life of "poverty" in the game!

This was really unimaginable in the past.

I have to say that life inevitably has its ups and downs....

Just like Thor, after Infinity War, everyone always thought he had nothing to lose.

In the end, Marvel told everyone that he still has a fit body to lose!

After walking all the way, Asuna couldn't help but ask, "Makino, what's the point of cancelling the streamlined program in the new version?"

In fact, Makino had already thought about Asuna's question.

Compared with embarrassing ordinary players, Makino is more willing to believe that the cancellation of this streamlined program is more like targeting him.

Or, this is more like a puzzle that the examiner gave to Muye!

From frugality to extravagance is easy, from extravagance to frugality is difficult.

Did the Protoss want to tell Muye that the Protoss also encountered the dilemma of going from extravagant to thrifty, and this is the reason why they need to plant people.

In other words, the Protoss wants to "give up the over-simplified program and find something important again"... And this is the reason why they plant tree people? !

Makino felt that he was only one step away from the truth.

Even if it doesn't hit, it's not far off.

And this short-term kick is the key to the key.

Because Muye knew too little about the Singer Protoss, and the Singer Protoss was too powerful.

Therefore, with Muye's limited knowledge, it is difficult to imagine what the Singer Protoss lacks, and it is necessary to give up all advantages and go back to the hard and difficult road to obtain it.

Is it a state of mind?

Makino couldn't help but think of those people in the real world who gave up the prosperity of the city and chose to go to places like Zhongnan Mountain for hermitage.

Muye really doesn't understand the realm that these people are pursuing!

Seeing that Makino was lost in thought, Asuna quietly stood aside, quietly waiting for Makino to think about the result.

However, at this moment, there was a commotion not far away.

The noise grew louder and louder, and both Makino and Asuna were attracted at the same time.

Looking from a distance, I saw a big buffalo running wildly from a distance, and behind the big buffalo, several players followed.

In the distance, you can even see the dust and smoke caused by the violent running.

"Bison monster."

Asuna's beautiful eyes lifted, she directly grasped the flickering light in her hand, and planned to slay the wild bull directly.

However, just as Asuna held the sword, the players who were chasing the bison became anxious, and several people shouted at the same time.

"Don't kill it!"

"Don't kill it!"

Both Makino and Asuna couldn't help but froze.

Don't kill cows... what do you mean?

However, the big bison didn't give the two of them much time to think, and quickly rushed to the two of them.

Seeing how hard everyone was chasing him, Makino didn't watch the show anymore, and immediately began to see the timing, and planned to subdue the bison.

Seeing Muye standing blankly in front of the bison, the guys behind him who were chasing the bison were startled.

This big bison's temper is not very good!

However, before everyone had time to remind them, they saw Muye put one hand on the top of the big bison's head.

Then, the wild buffalo was stopped by Muye.

Perhaps because the collision was too violent, a large number of small stars even appeared on the head of the big bison.

Directly fainted!

Several players were stunned, how much is this muscle strength?

This is also amazing!

It has to be said that these players who were chasing the bison have successfully attracted Muye's attention.

"What? Are you planning to domesticate the bison and use it to cultivate the land?"

Mu Ye was shocked.

What kind of divine operation is this?

Kayaba Akihiko didn't dare to write the script to domesticate bison farming in SAO, right?

Makino's shock also made those players feel a little embarrassed.

This operation is indeed a bit... showy!

Then, Makino understood the ins and outs of the matter.

It turned out that the idea was not brought up by these young people, but by a fisherman named Nishida.

Nishida, another fisherman...

After listening to these players, Muye suddenly remembered.

In SAO, there really is an older player named Nishida. He was originally the security director of the Dongdu Express Line Company and was responsible for maintaining the SAO network line.

Then on the day the server was launched, I was trapped in this game world with ordinary players.

In the original book, Asuna and Kirito also invited Nishida to visit the Forest House, and they are also quite interesting old people.

Makino didn't expect that this old man even gave young players advice on domesticating bison... A sense of age?

Showa flavor?

Makino suddenly couldn't help wanting to meet the old man.

......

Aincrad's 22nd floor.

Golar.

When Makino and Asuna arrived, they saw this security minister named Nishida not long after.

However, unlike Makino's impression, Nishida was hoeing the ground with a hoe.

And behind Nishida, there are several young people who also follow Nishida to learn.

They should all be players of the production system, and hoeing should also be planning to get some raw materials.

This is full of a sense of sight, and Makino is a little stunned when he sees it.

Sensing the arrival of Makino and Asuna, Nishida walked directly out of the field.

"Hello, my name is Makino, this is my wife Asuna..."

Makino first introduced himself and introduced Asuna by the way.

"Hello, sorry to bother you!"

Asuna also politely greeted Nishida.

"wife?"

Hearing Makino's introduction, Nishida was taken aback.

In SAO, there are not many players who can develop into husband and wife.

After taking a look at Asuna, Nishida couldn't help but opened his mouth wide and stared blankly at Asuna.

After blinking his eyes a few times, Nishida, who finally came to his senses, said, "Oh, oh, I'm so rude, I'm completely dumbfounded. Mr. Makino, and Asuna, you two are very talented and beautiful. A perfect match. Bless you!"

While scratching his head, he smiled wowly.

However, Nishida, who was scratching his head, was startled again.

"Makino, Asuna...you won't be..."

Seeing Nishida's gesture of exclamation, Makino hurriedly put his finger to his lips and made a "shush" gesture with all his might.

Makino and Asuna have seen this scene too many times.

If Nishida exclaimed, the two of them would soon be surrounded, and it would be absolutely impossible to get clean again.

After all, Nishida is relatively old. In the real world, he can still hold the position of a company director, and his mentality is still very good.

Westfield House.

"Sorry, rude, I didn't expect to meet you two, I'm sorry I don't have anything to entertain you..."

At this moment, Asuna looked at the sky and said, "It's getting late, Mr. Nishida, can I borrow it from your kitchen?"

"kitchen?"

Hearing Asuna's request, Nishida couldn't help but glanced at Asuna.

After the SAO version was updated, cooking well is not as easy as it used to be.

Asuna even borrowed the kitchen, she must be very confident in cooking.

"The kitchen is right there, feel free to use it!"

"Thank you so much, Mr. Nishida!"

After Asuna finished speaking, she walked directly into the kitchen and started to get busy.

Seeing Asuna's skilled movements, Nishida couldn't help but praised, "Makino, it's a blessing to have a wife like Asuna!"

Makino nodded in agreement.

"Being able to marry Asuna is the happiest thing in the game!"

Nishida sighed, finally in this sad game, he heard something that made him feel very relieved.

Makino: "Mr. Nishida, I just saw a player domesticating a bison on the upper floor. I heard that it was Mr. Nishida who paid attention to you, so I came here to ask, how did you come up with such an attention!"

Hearing Makino's question, Nishida couldn't help feeling emotional.

"What's so surprising? Using cows to plow the land is just the life of our generation. When I was a child, I went to the ground with my father... It's just that the times have changed, and your generation has little knowledge. That's it!"

Makino was slightly startled, and then he knew that he was on the cusp of a bull's horn.

What kind of unattainable thing is to use cattle to cultivate the land?

It's just the reality of life in the past!

The reason why most players can't think of it is because times have changed, and everyone sees it less often.

What's more, this is SAO, the world of virtual games, and everyone is more rigid in their thinking, and they don't think about it here.

At this moment, Makino was greatly touched.

What he has been unable to understand all the time, is it because he is too obsessed, thinking too complicated?

The reason why the Singer Protoss needs to plant a World Tree and a tree person is whether it is the profession of planting a tree person. In the very early days of the Protoss, it was actually a commonplace thing.

This is not something too inscrutable, but just everyone's daily life!

But later, with the development of the times, this daily life has become a lost...ancient black technology?

planting trees...planting trees...

Could it be that what you want to plant is not a World Tree at all, but the... Destiny Tree within the Protoss?

At this moment, lightning flashed in Makino's mind.

He remembered the seed of the tree of fate that the goddess sister gave him, and it was just such a seed that the goddess sister's family was passed down from generation to generation, but no one was able to make it germinate.

Also, every time Muye encounters difficulties and obstacles and needs to give his life to fight, the song of destiny always rings in his mind.

Everything is connected!

The so-called tree planters are not actually planting a world tree, but a supreme divine tree that can sing the song of destiny within the Protoss!

The reason why tree planters are humble is because this profession is likely to be eliminated, and it is a very ancient profession.

However, being eliminated does not mean that it is not important, on the contrary, it is very important!

Because, after the entire civilization has achieved super-evolution, the interior of the Singer Protoss may be too comfortable, and the Supreme Divine Tree may lack enough spiritual nourishment.

As a result, the Supreme Divine Tree began to stop growing, and even entered a stage of chronic death.

So, the divine tree has seeds.

And the people of the Protoss who got the seeds, because the civilization is too advanced, the ancestors in ancient times did not need what they did in the stage of hard work and entrepreneurship.

Therefore, the seeds cannot germinate at all!

And that may be the truth of everything...is that so?

Just when Makino figured out this question, he suddenly felt a shock in his mind.

In an instant, it seemed to be separated by the overlapping space, and saw a huge and unbelievable... God tree!

Threads of fairy mist hang down from the divine tree, as if glowing and joyful.

And the connection between Muye and the divine tree has been significantly improved.

At this moment, Makino suddenly had an inexhaustible power, and even the thickness of his soul increased by an unknown amount.

I don't know if it was an illusion, Makino even felt a sense of spiritual pressure.

Reality, or...illusion?

Makino didn't know, but what he knew was ~lightnovelpub.net~ what the examiner wanted to tell him through the system upgrade, he knew!

This is an unprecedented joy. Knowing the meaning of the game version upgrade means that the possibility of Makino's successful return to normal is greatly improved.

What's more, it means that he can get through the game earlier, and then let Asuna return to reality.

Perfect!

After Makino refocused his thoughts on reality, he found that Mr. Nishida was drinking tea quietly.

Makino quickly apologized, "I'm sorry, Mr. Nishida, I just thought about the problem too much and I neglected you. I'm really sorry."

Nishida didn't care, and smiled, "Looking at how excited you are, what you figured out must be very important. It's really great to be able to help you, so I'm not going to waste any time in this game. suffered."

Nishida said that he was optimistic, and Makino immediately became happy.

The more they talked, the happier they became. I have to say that Nishida is a very talkative person with rich social experience.

Soon, Asuna brought the prepared dinner over.

After eating the sashimi with the taste of soy sauce, Nishida was so moved that he almost cried.

The whole atmosphere is even more pleasant.
