Red A had already died by Lin Yan's sword when Lin Yan obtained the Reality Marble and Unlimited Blade Works.

With the Holy Grail War having progressed to this point, only Lin Yan and Matou Sakura remain as the two opposing forces. Regardless of who wins, they will ultimately benefit Angra Mainyu.

Medea, as expected of a magician from the Age of Gods, had seen through all of this long ago.

Even the Holy Grail was nothing more than something she could create herself if she had enough magic power.

"Ayan." She came to Lin Yan's side and gently took his arm: "Even if the Holy Grail War ends, as your familiar, I will stay by your side."

Artoria said nothing. She stood behind Lin Yan, her eyes dim, and bit her lip.

She is no ordinary woman; on her shoulders rests the entire Kingdom of Britain, waiting to be saved.

If I hadn't become the king of this country back then, I would probably be able to follow my heart now, boldly stand behind Lin Yan, and express my wish to be with him forever.

"Using them as familiars is only a last resort." Lin Yan's gaze swept over Medea, finally settling on Artoria.

He took Medea's hand and said:

"The black mud within the Holy Grail can devour heroic spirits, but it can also grant them a physical body to exist in this world. As long as the filth and pollution within the black mud can be resolved, I can allow you to remain intact in this world."

"Although this method still requires me to be your source of magic, normal survival and maintaining existence no longer require magic."

As he said this, Lin Yan gently patted their shoulders reassuringly, and finally whispered in Artoria's ear:

"There's no need to worry too much. Although the Holy Grail has been corrupted, and although this world cannot be changed, in another timeline, Britain will not perish, but will continue to thrive."

……

The opponent ahead is Angolan Mainyu. If we want the Holy Grail to become truly clean and clear again, we must not let him remain in the Holy Grail.

All you have to do is release it, and then...

Eliminate them!

No one in the world possesses this power. Even Gilgamesh, the King of Heroes at his peak, could not guarantee that he could destroy Angra Mainyu.

Except for Lin Yan.

Two flowers bloom, each telling its own story. In the black mist space, Lin Yan, who had just returned from Aincrad, looked around and found himself still alone, and sighed with some disappointment.

Forget it, although it's said that it's better to rely on yourself than on others, given my current situation, relying on myself is also a form of asking others for help.

The exploration progress of the 75th floor maze is very encouraging. This floor should be a perk given by the game designers, with abundant resources and countless leveling spots. After exploring it, the strategy team finally released the information, and within half a day, the entire 75th floor was packed with players, including many second- and third-rate guilds and some guys who had long since retreated to the second line and stayed on the first floor to loaf around.

What kind of monsters and demons have all come to the seventy-fifth floor to pan for gold?

"Lady Asuna, the area ahead is still unexplored. As a high-ranking officer of the Knights of the Blood Oath, you would be best advised to bring guards with you."

"Get lost! It's none of your business how I handle things."

"Lady Asuna..."

After an afternoon of grinding, Lin Yan had successfully raised his level to 66. This level was enough to deal with most unexpected situations. Although he was still a bit behind top players like Asuna, he was definitely in the middle of the pack among first-tier players.

"Now that I've broken through to level 75, the highest level has been unlocked. Next, I need to level up before the next boss fight." Lin Yan pondered while resting his chin on his hand, also planning how to make his presence known to Heathcliff.

Otherwise, their fate would most likely be directly manipulated by the system into a paralyzed state, leaving Heathcliff to disappear from the game, while they and their group continue to suffer through the game.

"I wish I could travel into a world that starts from scratch someday." Lin Yan sighed. "If I could get the blessing of the Phoenix, I'd be willing to directly use purple clay in the game."

……

"Hey, that... Lin Yan."

Lin Yan, who was deep in thought, was patted on the shoulder by a soft little hand. He subconsciously turned around and was met with a bright and beautiful face.

"Asuna?"

He was puzzled. Shouldn't he be the one scheming? Why was the prey coming to him willingly?

"Um... I have something to take care of. We agreed to explore the maze together, right?"

As Asuna blinked frantically to signal him, Lin Yan saw behind her the tall but old-looking Kradel.

Oh, it's that ugly fellow again!

"Yes, I was just saying I was going to come find you." Seeing this, Lin Yan nodded and readily agreed.

"What a coincidence! I was looking for you too. The maze entrance is just ahead. Let's go together." (End of Chapter)

Chapter 309 Dragon Crystal Longsword

After saying that, in order to make the relationship between the two seem more intimate, Asuna took the opportunity to link arms with Lin Yan.

Although you could see the lingering impatience and embarrassment towards Kradil in her expression, her face was truly beautiful!

Her skin was as white as snow, delicate and smooth; her features were exquisite and three-dimensional, with a straight nose and rosy, well-defined lips, exuding elegance and determination. Her face was a classic oval shape with a pointed chin, giving her an overall fresh and refined appearance.

Her slender eyebrows, like a crescent moon, were graceful yet tinged with melancholy, and her slightly upturned eyes shimmered with moisture. Her chestnut hair was tied into a high ponytail, making her appear both lively and gentle. The ends of her hair were slightly curled, swaying gracefully with her movements.

She truly deserves to be called the destined heroine of the entire series. Even Lin Yan's willpower... well, Lin Yan has no willpower at all. He hasn't been in a relationship for almost two years. Even though he's busy all day in the game world, it can't hide his emptiness.

Especially since there are so many of them in the black mist space, all of them have joined in pairs, showing off their affection, which is utterly despicable.

Especially the guy who transmigrated into a hentai game and is already living the life of a harem man—it's outrageous! It's infuriating! I'm furious!

How about we switch places and let ourselves travel to that kind of world?

Although I harbor some resentment, now that the opportunity has arrived, that resentment can be transformed into motivation in no time.

But it cannot be a blind motivation.

"Hey, who are you? Are you trying to kidnap one of our Knights of the Blood Oath?"

"I'm going to abduct one of your Blood Oath Knights' officers, what's wrong with that?" Lin Yan's tone carried a hint of disdain. "We're all players, do you think you're superior?"

The Knights of the Blood Oath have always led the entire raiding party, and in a sense, they are the largest guild in Aincrad, actually wielding the greatest power.

In particular, the fact that the 74th floor level was breached by a lone player wielding an invisible longsword spread throughout Aincrad in just half a day, igniting public attention.

A lone player, armed with only a sword, soloed the 74th floor boss, the Blue-Eyed Demon!

This kind of thing, which is so full of individual heroism, actually happened not long ago!

You have to understand that the boss fight wasn't a group effort; it was a battle of swords and hammers. When the boss attacked, a dedicated shield team had to hold it off. It was a real struggle to kill a boss. And now you're telling me that one person can solo it?

This person must be the savior sent by Inari, the reincarnation of Susanoo, the legendary hero who saves the world!

As a result, while everyone was curious about who this hero was, it also caused some leaders of top guilds such as the Blood Oath Knights to feel a strange sense of shame.

The culture of shame that prevails in this society is different from the culture of sin that prevails in Western European countries. The latter will say that you have original sin and you need to atone for it, while the former will say that you have brought shame to everyone and that you are a disgrace to the collective. They feel that they have been humiliated at the slightest thing.

The key is that if you feel humiliated, go find a quiet place and commit seppuku. Don't keep whining here!

Although Lin Yan had never killed anyone in the game, he had seen death all the time. Especially since this Kradir seemed to be a member of Laughing Coffin.

I need to find a chance to kill him.

Simply killing them isn't enough; it's best to make them serve their intended purpose.

For example, they could push forward the relationship between him and Asuna, and increase his affection level...

Lin Yan, now, is not afraid of any player in the entire Aincrad except for Heathcliff.

Even if all the red-named players from Smiling Coffin came, they wouldn't be enough for him to kill with just his Dragon Crystal Longsword.

There's nothing else to it, this is the essence of martial arts: speed is the only way to win.

As long as the opponent cannot attack you, even if they have great skills, they will be unable to do anything to you.

Even if the enemy's defenses are piled up like a mountain, they can be slowly worn down and killed.

Half a day ago, he really wouldn't have had this confidence, but when he was upgrading the Dragon Crystal Sword, a strange attribute suddenly appeared on his Dragon Crystal Sword in the system error message.

Weapon Name: Dragon Crystal Longsword

Quality: AAA.

Weapon attributes: Sharpness, Enchantment, Armor Penetration.

Weapon-specific attribute: Healing-preventing.

……

A new line of red text has been added below.

Healing Prohibition: The Dragon Crystal Longsword, during its forging, accidentally awakened the dragon's curse within the dragon crystal. Under the dragon's claws, all wounds will bleed continuously, and all healing methods will be cursed. (After being attacked by the Dragon Crystal Longsword, the attacked party is immediately prohibited from using any healing methods that restore health, mana, or status.)

Lin Yan didn't know if this was just pure luck or a cheat code, but he knew that weapons with unique attributes were all divine artifacts, and the chance of them appearing was one in ten thousand!

A year ago, there were indeed rumors that a player had forged a weapon with unique attributes. It was clearly a short dagger with only A-quality, but it sold for a high price of three million.

Looking at Kradir's constipated expression, wanting to take action but also worried about the influence of the Knights of the Blood Oath, Lin Yan couldn't help but laugh.

Great, that's good for stirring up hatred. It would be best if we could draw out more people from the Smiling Coffin. The more people there are, the better the "hero saves the damsel in distress" effect will be.

"Alright, Asuna, let's go. Let's ignore this clown behind us."

Lin Yan acted very gentlemanly and did not take advantage of the situation, which left a good impression on Asuna.

During this period, the relationship between Kirito and Asuna was more of a friendship between good friends. Although they had some vague thoughts about each other, there was no substantial progress in their relationship.

It was around this time. If it had been two days later, and Kirito had been forced to join the Knights of the Blood Oath because of Asuna's battle with Heathcliff, the leader of the Knights of the Blood Oath, their relationship would have progressed rapidly due to the combined effects of guilt and friendship. It would have been much more difficult for Lin Yan to interfere then.

"Okay... let's go."
