Simultaneous travel: invincible from the beginning of the anime!

Chapter 265: Super rare character virtual body?
It wasn't strange that Seiya suddenly appeared on the crowded street. After all, players' logins and logouts were always so mysterious.

But when his figure, which was less than one meter and two inches tall, appeared in the crowd, many people's attention was quickly attracted.

"Hey, that can't be that..."

"That should be right. It's pretty much the same as what was officially introduced. I originally thought this kind of virtual body only existed in legends, but it turns out it actually exists!"

"Maybe he really is just a child? After all, the SNS-404 avatar hasn't appeared in GGO yet."

"Idiot, don't you know that GGO is different from other MMO games? Because it contains a lot of gun elements, this game prohibits underage children from playing stealth.

And even if a dwarf in real life enters GGO, do you think he can adjust his height because of the setting of the virtual body? "

Seiya, who was very sharp-eyed and sharp-eared, listened to the discussions around him, then looked at the SNS-404 marked on his own virtual body and immediately understood.

It seems that he was lucky enough to get a very rare virtual body at the beginning, just like Mr. Kirito.

However, after taking a look at "himself" in the reflection of the glass, Seiya had to complain about one thing.

What kind of people are the game planners of GGO? Mr. Kirito's M-9000 avatar with a sissy style and my own SNS-404 with a shota style are both super rare avatars.

However, the macho-style virtual bodies that he thought were more handsome were actually just ordinary virtual bodies in GGO. Is the XP of the planners and operators of this game really normal?
"Brother, if I'm not mistaken, your virtual body should be SNS-404, right?"

When faced with passersby who approached to talk to him, Seiya did not hide anything but nodded directly.

After seeing Seiya's affirmative answer, the passersby around him were instantly excited. Many middlemen even rubbed their hands and came forward to Seiya and said, "Hey, are you selling this account? I can offer 500 million for it!"

"Get lost! You're just bullying me because I'm a newbie, aren't you? This is the price of a normal rare virtual body.

But SNS-404 is an extremely rare virtual body that has never appeared in GGO, and it is worth at least 1000 million!"

To be honest, when Seiya heard the offers from these people, he was really tempted.

How dare you imagine that a newly created character account is worth 1000 million? The value of this account alone is much more than the compensation that Seijiro Kikuoka had promised him.

"I have a question for everyone. GGO's rare Avatars, do they have any special abilities compared to regular Avatars?"

Because the account used by Seiya is linked to SAO, he has no intention of selling it, but this does not prevent him from taking this opportunity to learn more about the game settings of GGO.

"GGO isn't some fantasy MMO game. The character stats here are all balanced and identical, and there's no level division.

In this world of guns and machines, the only factors that determine the outcome of PvP are the player's own skills and the difference in firearms.

There is no difference in level settings and character attributes, which means that the only standard that distinguishes old players from novices is their own skills.

For a game that advocates fair PvP among players, Seiya is not surprised by such a setting, but...

"Since there is no difference in character attributes, why are rare virtual bodies more valuable? It can't be just because of its rarity..." When other players use ordinary virtual body models, and you use a rare virtual body, there is indeed an effect that I stand out from the crowd by using a "skin".

But just for the sake of attracting attention, this price seemed a bit too outrageous to Seiya.

When he was following the anime in the past, Seiya wondered why Kirito's M-9000 virtual body was sold at such a high price. It couldn't be that all players liked effeminate characters, so he decided to find out today.

"If this ultra-rare virtual body only had collectible value, it naturally wouldn't be priced so high.

However, some special models of virtual bodies, such as M-9000 and your current SNS-404, have such value.

Don't forget, because of the balanced setting of character attributes, no matter it is a burly man or a virtual body of your size, there will not be too obvious difference in speed, strength, or endurance without using equipment.

Even if some virtual bodies have certain bonuses in attributes, the magnitude will not be too huge.

In a gun game, do you think being big is more advantageous, or being small is more advantageous?"

The other party's explanation also made Seiya show an expression of sudden enlightenment.

That's right, since the initial data of the characters are roughly the same, the petite virtual body modeling will naturally be more difficult to hit in a shooting game, and it will also be easier to find cover!

Take GGO players who are good at using sniper rifles as an example. The probability of hitting a target by sniping a 1.2-meter-tall boy and a 2-meter-tall big man from a long distance is almost twice as much!
Because of his short stature, Seiya, the virtual version of a boy, doesn't even need to dodge some low-height projectiles.

By the same token, Mr. Tong's M-9000 virtual body is expensive. In addition to providing certain attribute bonuses, the main reason is that although it is a male character, it has a petite body.

Although it seems to have no special abilities, the small-sized virtual body has many advantages over ordinary virtual bodies.

And if it were just an ordinary MMO, it would be fine, but "GGO" is also the only VRMMO in Japan that has "professional players".

Because this game uses a system that can convert game currency into real-world currency, high-level players can earn high amounts of electronic currency every month.

To use the term in the game, it is called "moving bricks".

As long as players continue to get high scores in "GGO", they can obtain various rare firearms in the game, sell them for electronic currency, and use it to maintain their daily lives.

Therefore, compared with other MMOs, "GGO" players are more willing to spend a lot of time and energy on this game.

Owning a rare virtual body is enough to gain a greater advantage in various competitions, especially an ultra-rare virtual body like Seiya SNS-404. Merchants don't worry about not being able to sell it. This is why they are so enthusiastic about Seiya and answer all his questions.

"Thank you for sharing so much with me. If I don't plan to play GGO anymore, I will consider selling this avatar to you."

Seiya politely thanked the people who gathered around him and left. Now that he had learned about the basic settings and operations of GGO from those people, he would start to practice it next.
