Lyfa hastened the task of becoming an elf that allowed her to use [Spirit Tree Transfer], and came to see Kirito at a high level, which made Kirito's heart full of emotion, warmth, and apology.

"But the task I'm currently doing is full. I am very grateful to Xiaozhi for coming, but there is no way to let you join the team immediately." Kirito scratched the back of his head and said to Lyfa.

"Hey...it's okay, there are other tasks that I can do with my brother in the future." Lyfa picked up the long black hair and stroked it, and said, "Well, brother...does this look good?"

"Well, it suits you very well." Kirito also reached out and touched it a few times.

"Really...thank you." Lyfa, who wanted to say more, couldn't hold back any more lines for a while, and then remembered the question at hand, "By the way, your room seems to have been burglarized!"

"No, I think there may be other reasons." Kirito said awkwardly.

Afterwards, the brothers and sisters learned that the couple who took a shower together staged a bathroom duel, using various sword skills and auxiliary skills. As for the reason for the fight, they kept silent on the grounds that it was a "girls' conversation" .

Aincrad, twenty-second floor, Emerald City—

This city is obviously white but has such a name, the reason is that the copy related to the city borrows part of the settings from "The Wizard of Oz".

However, because a certain player who took the task of Dorothy happened to die when the map was greatly changed by the "Earth Severing". The missions related to "The Wizard of Oz" were so bad that they couldn't be continued, which made this place a maze that ordinary players couldn't reach.

It is not correct to say that there is no way to go there at all, just because the team does not bring Dorothy, who has the iron pot, the guardian of the witch, and the magic belt won from the kingdom of gold and silver, the death rate will be extremely high on the road, plus There seems to be no benefit to match the risk, and no one cares.

But it is different for some people who see through a part of the world.

The strongest magical girl in Academy City stood with her eyes closed in the castle of the former ruler of the Emerald City, holding a huge sword that was as long and wide as her own and inserted into the ground.

Those with sharp eyes could see the faint light spots on the surrounding ground converging towards the sword body, blending into her own body along the sword conduction.

And the long rivers formed by the convergence of light spots spread to the entire map of the copy.

"Spiritual power, magic power, and the energy of inherent sword skills are mixed according to the specified ratio... But it seems that even the spiritual power used to refresh the combat units in the entire dungeon has been drained, and it will not be able to regenerate in the next few weeks Let's go to another place."

Fuyutsuki Mihoko pulled the sword out of the ground and stepped out of the palace gate.

"Is that enough?" asked the purple kobold who was leaning against the door and was in charge of monitoring.

Mihoko Fuyutsuki turned her head and stared at the purple kobold. This is a candidate for the floor boss. It is the monster named "phantomlykaon" who once captured her, but was recently used by someone who captured her for research. The honey juice method has become this kind of humanoid, and that guy deliberately gathered a lot of similar things, which is too different as a means of raising combat power.

Of course, the main reason for the lack of winks is that I was caught and studied from head to toe. The other party understands the inner rules of this world better and can do many things that ordinary players cannot do.

"Hmph, now that the 'earth is cut off', those previous threats are useless, don't think that I will go back with you. So far I have listened to your words only because the things you asked me to cooperate with the research are also beneficial to my accumulation. It’s only about strength and being close to the truth. It’s true that Academy City is not clean, but I also want to act according to my own ideas instead of being your puppet in order to find out the truth and make the black hand pay the price.”

As she spoke, she vigorously swung the sword backwards, carried it on her back, bent her legs slightly, leaned forward, and jumped into the air.

"Just abandoning the dungeon can improve my strength so much, so what if the mainline dungeon is in progress? Then, my next goal is... to demonize the holy tree." She thought.

A few seconds later, the Phantom Hound who was qualified to be the floor boss and the palace behind him were split in half by the transparent water sword glow that Mihoko Fuyutsuki swung while holding the sword on her back, and then exploded...

One morning, Aincrad, the eighty-sixth floor, Traphael—

This is a floor main street town that can only be considered to have any other distinct theme features other than the fantasy world style.

If you look down from the air, it is a circular town surrounded by high walls similar to the pictures used in many works.

Standing on the tallest defense tower, Currea took a telescope to look at another city two kilometers away, and at the same time took the city defense map sold by Argo and checked it with the phantom celestial sphere to confirm the details.

The city on the opposite side has existed in the sphere of influence of Academy City since the opening of SAO, but the gate has been closed tightly. There are a large number of soldiers in excellent armor and armed with various weapons patrolling outside the city and on the city wall day and night, and the cursors on their heads are all red. .

Their individual strength is similar to the guards of the metropolis, very strong. Although someone has attacked those soldiers or tried to scout the city, the benefits of the former are the same as killing a single guard, and the latter has nothing worth fighting. Although there is a saying that this may be an unactivated copy~lightnovelpub.net~, but no quest that can be activated has been found yet.

"So the church used to bless the pair of rings is in that city, and I was the first to activate the dungeon map where tens of thousands of people failed to find the opening conditions for hundreds of days? The reason is for a pair of rings? This Isn’t the unfolding and gain too asymmetrical?” he said.

Looking at the defense configuration of the opponent, it takes a lot of people to attack the city. At worst, you have to call those magical girls to help. Kuria spends time every day to replenish blood and magic for them. I believe they will still give them this face. .

However, judging from the collected information, the only ones who could get in were the six people who had accepted the task of the blessing ceremony, and one person who was insane and could only marginally ob.

Not long ago, Ling Yinlai handed him a red spar badge that he thought should be related to Akanari. He knew that it was something that was integrated into the body to obtain abilities and magical spiritual equipment in the ritual of becoming a magical girl. Appeared in , but after trying to reintegrate it with Akanari, except that Akanari restored the parameters of the magical girl form, there was still no sign of consciousness recovery.

By the way, Ling Yin, Kurrea, and a bunch of magical girls are tentatively considered alumni.
