Simultaneous travel: invincible from the beginning of the anime!

Chapter 10 You are so damn handsome!

"Don't worry, this is definitely just a bug in the game. Once the game management finds the problem, they will definitely fix it."

There were people who were panicking, but there were also relatively calm players. There were even people in the crowd who claimed to be beta testers who said that the current situation was probably just a technical adjustment and asked everyone to calm down.

"It's impossible. A phenomenal game like SAO wouldn't have such a simple game bug.

Moreover, such a situation never occurred during the internal test."

Compared to other calm players, Kirito felt a growing sense of unease in his heart.

"Then maybe it's really like what I said, this is the game opening ceremony prepared by the game developers.

Did you not explain it in the game announcement just because you wanted to give players a surprise? "

Seiya and Kirito hadn't said anything about what Klein said, but someone soon answered Klein's question for them.

The information box, like a red brick, covered the entire square at a speed visible to the naked eye.

Immediately afterwards, a huge figure wearing a red robe, whose appearance was completely unclear and looked like the god of death, suddenly appeared in the air.

“This is indeed a grand ceremony prepared for you, but it is not the welcome ceremony you imagined, but a true invitation to death.

First, let me introduce myself. My name is Akihiko Kayaba, and I am the developer of this game.

I believe many players have also discovered that your game logout button has disappeared.

But I want to say that this is the real rule of the game of SAO. Players cannot voluntarily withdraw from the game.

If someone outside actively cuts off the connection, the helmet will instantly release high-power microwaves, and the brain will be destroyed instantly.

The only way to leave here is to successfully conquer the 100th floor of Aincrad, defeat the final boss, and complete the game."

Many people naturally did not believe the words of the man who claimed to be Kayaba Akihiko, but soon, Kayaba Akihiko directly produced extremely favorable evidence.

It also said that 213 people had taken off their helmets despite being stopped, so they were already dead.

The news of their deaths was also spreading in the real world.

After seeing the news projection released by Kayaba Akihiko, many players who originally had some ideas suddenly dared not act rashly.

"Is it enough to just clear the 100th floor of the Sky Tower?"

It is actually not easy to clear the 100th floor of the Sky Tower. After all, during the internal test, the highest level that players could reach was only the eighth floor.

But the beta tester who asked this question was not discouraged.

Because he knew very well that players were like the fourth calamity in the game world. Even if the dungeon was extremely difficult, as long as they possessed "immortality", it was only a matter of time before they could conquer it.

The number of players in the public beta test is now far greater than that in the internal beta test. It only takes one month in the internal beta test to reach the eighth level.

There are so many players here now, it will only take a year at most to reach the 100th floor.

"Of course, I can assure you of this. As long as you clear the 100th floor, I will naturally let you go back to your original time.

But under this premise, I must remind you that in this game, once your health bar reaches zero, the helmet will also release microwaves to damage your brain. Hearing Kayaba Akihiko's words, the beta test players in the square who had originally had some confidence suddenly became discouraged.

"What a joke! Isn't this clearly asking us to die?"

"That's right, if you die in the game, you'll die in real life too. Isn't this just a way for us to complete the game with one life?"

Facing the numerous players' insults, Kayaba Akihiko didn't care at all, but continued to speak slowly: "So I said it long ago, this is a true death game.

If you really are playing this game with the attitude that you are playing it, then what's the point of me trapping you here?
Well, before I leave, I'll give you a little gift and wish you all a happy gaming experience."

As the words fell, the giant god of death who called himself Kayaba Akihiko disappeared from mid-air.

Until the other party disappeared, the players in the square had a mirror in their hands.

Under the illumination of the mirror, all the players present were now exposed and returned to their real appearance.

There were handsome guys who turned into fat otakus on the spot, and even many beautiful girls who were originally crying turned into big men who picked their toes. It was a complete scene of a large-scale online love failure.

Kirito and Klein beside Seiya were no exception. They soon turned into a young boy with a childish look and an office worker with a rather vicissitudes of life.

Seiya, on the other hand, was fiddling with a mirror in his hand, and the appearance on his face hadn't changed at all compared to before.

The mirror given by Kayaba Akihiko should be a disposable prop, and it will disappear immediately after use.

As for the effect, there is no need to explain it in detail.

Since Seiya entered the game in his original form, the "Mirror of Truth" item was not triggered.

Looking at the mirror in his hand, Seiya thought of Kayaba Akihiko who later seemed to have created a small account to blend in with the players.

So the question is, if he gives this mirror to the other person, will it reveal the other person's true colors?
Compared to most of the players who died on the spot, the changes in appearance of Kirito and the others were still within an acceptable range.

When Klein saw that Seiya hadn't changed at all, he, who had transformed from a handsome man into a decadent old man, looked at Seiya in surprise and said, "No, why are you the only one who hasn't changed back to his original appearance?"

"This is what he originally looked like. When Seiya entered the game, his facial model wasn't modified at all."

Hearing what Kirito said, Klein was immediately shocked and said, "No, God, this is too unfair!

If I remember correctly, you mentioned before that Seiya is the champion of the kendo tournament, right?
Being young and promising is fine, but he actually looks more handsome than the face I sculpted. How the hell is that reasonable?"

Seeing Klein's face full of disbelief, Kirito walked over to him, patted him on the shoulder, and said that he completely understood his feelings.

Because Kirito has been experiencing this feeling for many years!

"Compared to such insignificant matters, don't you think there are more important things to do right now?

Just like the leveling area Kirito took us to earlier, the limited resources nearby will be snatched up by many players, right?"

Seiya's words made Kirito stunned for a moment, and then he nodded quickly and said, "That's right, the resources in the Novice Village are limited. If we don't go there quickly, someone else will definitely get there first!"
