Zongman: My days as a chaebol in Japan

This time, the opening ceremony of Totsuki ended perfectly. In the car, Li Xuan hugged Erina and Asuna who fell asleep due to fatigue, and recalled what happened today in his mind. He just briefly skipped the chef competition in Totsuki, and the diving competition in the hot spring was what made Li Xuan most satisfied.

There was one less person in the car at this time, and Kobayashi Ryudan did not follow Li Xuan back directly. Kobayashi Ryudan currently felt that he still had a strong interest in pursuing the path of a chef, and the commander-in-chief also decided to let him and Erina participate in the Light and Dark Chef Competition at the end of the year, so Kobayashi Ryudan had to separate from Li Xuan at Totsuki Academy. A long wet kiss made Kobayashi Ryudan almost suffocate. They agreed to go to Rizhao City on the weekend, and then left and returned to the dormitory.

The King Phantom slowly drove into Rizhao and stopped in front of Li Xuan's villa. Li Xuan gently picked up the sleeping girls in the car, put them on the sofa, and then sent them back to their rooms one by one.

After finishing his work, Li Xuan also took a rest, because tonight was Sakuya Izayoi's performance time.

...

In the morning, Li Xuan got up very early, gave the little maid a good morning kiss, washed up, went downstairs and did morning exercises with Xiaolan, Sonoko, Katsura Kotonoha and Saionji Sekai who got up early.

Gurefia prepared breakfast. After Li Xuan quickly finished his breakfast, he went upstairs to wake up all those who were staying in bed. When he returned to the lobby, Xiaolan and Sonoko had already asked Izayoi Sakuya to drive them back to Teitan High School.

The morning ceremony ended and we set off for Kyoto High School.

After entering the school gate, he was welcomed by the opposite sex and envied by most of the same sex as usual. His outstanding team member Tsuchimi Rin was still in the same place with a group of backups. The number of members of the Cannon King group increased a lot in half a month, but compared with the spirited appearance when he first entered school, all the members of the Cannon King group now seemed a little malnourished.

The first to be hit is the ostensibly legal wife, Ito Makoto, with deep dark circles under his eyes and the appearance of having stayed up all night in the Internet cafe for seven days and seven nights. People have a feeling that this guy might be dead in the next second. Several of his good friends, Fujii Yafuyu, Kuriya Mugi, and Sawa Yutasuke have been in the Internet cafe for three days and three nights. Several other members have more or less developed dark circles under their eyes and have become thinner.

After encouraging Tsuchimi Rin, Li Xuan felt that he still needed to remind them to let the leader take a break and give little Ito and the others a holiday. Otherwise, Li Xuan felt that in another month, the school would announce that a student had successfully practiced Taoism by staying up all night.

However, they cannot be allowed to fully recover. After all, Katsura Kotonoha and Saionji Sekai said a few days ago that Ito Makoto actually wanted to get to know them even though he already had a girlfriend, Tsuchimi Rin. Everyone in the school who has a little insight knows their relationship with Li Xuan. How dare you, a thing with a cerebellum controlling the brain, swing a hoe?

Although Katsura Kotonoha and Saionji Sekai had let Ito Makoto see the swordsmanship of the Iai family at that time, Ito Makoto actually had the spirit of an immortal cockroach.

Therefore, Li Xuan felt it necessary to ask Tsuchimi Rin to increase her efforts. However, at present, the effect is still good. At least today, the Cannon King trio no longer has the energy to look at other girls. They are sitting or lying in the pavilion, drowsy.

After sending Asuna and the others downstairs, Li Xuan and Tokisaki Kurumi returned to the World Class of the Supernatural Campus and continued their daily routine. However, this time, Li Xuan took out his mobile phone and began to announce the plan to Tsuchimi Rin.

Tsuchimi Rin was a bit bored during this period, because the Cannon King combination had begun to prevent her from using most of her strength, and she could only make up for it through numbers. Due to the captain's orders, she could not kill all the fish, so during this period of time, apart from not being able to vent much of her strength, she did get to see the diversity of species.

But that was not the case. In the end, she found that only a limited number of people like Ito Makoto could compete with her, and the others were no different from those on the verge of a fight.

Seeing that the plan asked her to work harder, there was only one thing to pay attention to: don't let people die. Tsuchimi Rin was excited. She recently saw some interesting things in some books of Ze Yuezhi at Ito Makoto's house. She planned to find an opportunity to put them into practice in the next two days.

There was nothing special to note about this week's exorcism practice. Li Xuan, Tokisaki Kurumi and their team members completed it in no time. When school was over in the afternoon, the two came to the Art Club. After knocking on the door and entering, they saw that there were fewer people in the Art Club today.

Altria and Erza, who usually eat snacks, and Irene and Toosaka Rin, who usually watch a drama, are gone. Only Asuna and Erina, Katsura Kotonoha, and Saionji Sekai are there.

Li Xuan and the other person came in and saw that a few people were missing. They asked a few questions and Asuna told them about Irene and the others.

Toosaka Rin and Altria had to study at home for a while due to family affairs, so they were basically not around Li Xuan for a while; the same went for the Irene sisters. With Li Xuan's intervention, their family's shipbuilding business finally started to get on track. The Irene sisters went back because they needed to be exposed to more information for the family business.

On the other hand, they had agreed with Li Xuan to build a super luxurious yacht, and go on a sea trip with Li Xuan and a group of sisters during the summer vacation. So although they were reluctant to leave Li Xuan, the temporary separation was for a better reunion. They contacted each other by phone every day, and met at lunch on campus, but they did not spend as much time in the villa.

After understanding this, Li Xuan nodded in approval. The women who could stay by his side had potential as dazzling as gold. He just collected them and placed them on his highest platform.

Chapter 124 Death Game

After understanding the situation, Li Xuan sent words of encouragement to Irene and the other three, and told them to tell him if they had any troubles.

He hugged Katsura Kotonoha, who was reading a book beside him, and told them how he had arranged for Ito Makoto for her and Saionji Sekai. The two of them blushed a little, but couldn't help laughing.

Because it is a new month, today is the time for the Art Club to re-select their hobbies for this month. Since Irene and the others were absent, Asuna finally suggested that they use their own SAO as a hobby competition.

For Erina, it's because the combination of ingredients and recipes in SAO can expand her own career as a chef. For Kotonoha Katsura and Sekai Saionji, it's because the feeling of practicing Iai in SAO is very similar to reality. For Asuna, it's because of many factors.

Finally it was decided that SAO didn't need to practice on campus as the login device was inside the villa, so Li Xuan and Asuna left the activity room directly and got on the King Phantom to go home.

In the car, Asuna also revealed some new secrets of SAO.

RECT's new technology has allowed many consortiums to see business opportunities, and with the support of a strong foundation, they have begun to cooperate with consortiums from many countries. The most recent and latest cooperation is in the field of medicine, focusing on the rehabilitation of vegetative patients.

RECT plans to allow vegetative patients to enter an independent server in SAO, put all selected vegetative patients into this server, and play a game similar to Dragon Quest, and the reward is the recovery and awakening of the vegetative patients. As soon as this project was established, multinational consortiums took notice.

Many third-rate businessmen from conglomerates who had no access to the extraordinary heard that RECT had the means to cure vegetative patients with 100% certainty, and they immediately smelled a huge scent of money. Moreover, there were many vegetative patients in their hospital industries. If this could really succeed, it would be a huge boost to the expansion of the industry and their own reputation.

Unfortunately, there are only 50,000 places available for the first collaboration. This number sounds like a lot, but it is very small compared to the number of patients in so many countries. However, this is only the first practice, so many countries still understand it, but the places are still being scrambled for.

Listening to Asuna, who was leaning on him, talking about this project, Li Xuan gradually discovered that this project was actually basically similar to the original SAO. They were all unwitting chosen ones who were constrained in SAO and gained freedom after passing the level.

In fact, many vegetative patients have successfully met their families in SAO through holographic stealth technology, but many people still do not realize the extent of the application of this technology.

After returning to the villa area, Li Xuan and his companions lay down directly on the sofa in the hall, put on holographic stealth helmets, logged in to the new address link that Asuna sent to them, and logged in again.

Lincoln dead head, connection.

At the starting point, many people, or players, have been looking at their current situation curiously. Basically, everyone is wondering why they are in this place when they have lost consciousness. Many younger people have begun to familiarize themselves with their own and SAO's conditions. These people find that they seem to be in the same situation as in some storybooks, so they all feel like they have been reincarnated into a different world.

Before long, all 50,000 people had landed, and those who were still getting familiar with this world were suddenly attracted by the voice coming from the sky.

At the starting point, all the players in the town square were gathered together, the sky turned blood red, and then a figure condensed and appeared from the sky.

"Everyone, warriors from the other world, I'm Akihiko Kayaba, the producer of the Death Game. Your bodies in the real world are nearing the end, but I think you can still be saved. Go ahead and conquer the top 100 floors of the floating city of Aincrad in this other world. You'll have the chance to reunite with your family and friends in the real world... Also, don't think this is a game, or you'll die." After explaining the status of the real world to these confused players and giving them some final advice, Akihiko Kayaba disappeared into the air.

The sky returned to its white and blue color, but for those who heard Kayaba Akihiko's words, it was like thunder in their ears, because they found that there was no logout option in their game character interface.

Now, the warriors from another world officially appear on the stage.

Li Xuan, Asuna and the others were quietly listening to Kayaba Akihiko's words in an inconspicuous place. Their character interfaces had a logout option.

The 50,000 selected vegetative patients use special medical helmets, so there is no logout option.

Li Xuan and his companions were wearing normal helmets, and even if forcibly taking them off would trigger a strong electric pulse as he remembered, Li Xuan did not think that a mere artificial electric current could harm the few people who had been transformed by their internal energy.

However, since it is a project they invested in, Li Xuan and Asuna and the others still cannot attract people's attention openly. They are more like players with a God's perspective.

At the starting point, after adding Asuna and the others as friends, they began exploring again. The reality of the Death Game (sao version) was further enhanced and it was no different from reality.

After seeing many players getting rid of the discomfort they felt when they first heard Kayaba Akihiko's words, many smart people have already started to act. They heard Kayaba Akihiko's last words, and they still have a chance to wake up in reality. Many of these people are clear about what they have encountered in reality.

After accepting the setting of the other world, they began to show their gaming talents and everyone started to plunder resources. This time, Kayaba Jingyang also gave them a basic manual for free, which recorded some basic information, including that the refresh of resources was limited every day.

In order to see their important people again in the real world, these selected people began to plunder resources frantically, and some people even started attacking each other for wild monsters.

However, because it is still in the early stages, these people are still a little restrained. They just knock out the opponent's status and drive them away. There has been no situation where anyone deliberately drains the opponent's health bar.

Because they saw someone who didn't believe in the setting of this game world, and after jumping off the suspended continent, he never appeared in the starting place again. However, the player's name was recorded on the death tombstone in the starting place.

They once again remembered what Kayaba Akihiko said, don't think this is a game, or you will die.

In their view, those who jumped and never reappeared were truly dead and lost the chance to meet their important people again in the real world.

Li Xuan and his companions avoided these people. Since they had experience in another battle, they easily completed the upgrade and reached the town.

Chapter 125 Strategy and Battle

This time, the death game added a lot of restrictions. Li Xuan and his companions clearly felt that their attributes were not as good as in SAO.

Only the reaction attribute was still slightly online. Li Xuan and his companions did not show any intention of highlighting themselves. Instead, they started the journey of killing monsters, upgrading and collecting like normal players.

Fighting is the main theme of the death game.

After only one day, the names of hundreds of people appeared on the stone tablet of the starting place. These were players who were unable to adapt to and accept their own situation.

Many players choose to wait at the starting point. They think that someone will complete the strategy soon, and they may be able to take advantage of it. However, a month has passed in the game, and everyone is still stuck at the boss door of the first level. The game time and the real world are passing at a ratio of two to one. Finally, a strategy group appears.

Because players have discovered that the experience level and item gains they can obtain on the first floor are almost reaching their upper limit, and what they can gain every day is now negligible. This forces players to defeat bosses and enter higher floors. The plan to start again after reaching the maximum level in the Novice Village has failed.

That day, after Li Xuan, Asuna and others came online from the hotel, they saw people waiting for players downstairs and sending them invitations.

In the town square, a blue-haired man was standing on a high step and began a speech to encourage people to attack. Everyone's emotions were aroused. They always remembered what Kayaba Akihiko said, that their bodies in reality were nearing the end. If the body was gone, the consciousness would be gone too.

"Complete the game and liberate the world" is the slogan shouted by the blue-haired man, and it is also the slogan of many players.

Soon, a raiding team was formed, led by the blue-haired man. A team of a hundred people was formed and they set out towards the boss room that had been discovered long ago.

The strategy failed because of a player who wanted to get the last blow in the team. The blue-haired man lost his life in the process. The player who got the last blow opened the activation crystal amid the condemnation of the crowd and entered the second level.

With the successful capture of the first-level boss and the activation of the second level, the players' enthusiasm for the capture suddenly increased, and under the fierce offensive of the players, the number of levels soon reached 30. Because the front-line capture team began to suffer casualties and the boss's attributes were obviously improved to a higher level, the players' progress in the capture was forced to stop.

A new round of leveling began.

The 22nd floor, the Lake Forest, Li Xuan and Asuna bought a house here again, but this time because it was a death game, Li Xuan could not buy a big villa like Sao. This multi-room wooden house was already the most expensive building in the Lake Forest.

Li Xuan and his companions had no intention of going to the front line to attack. They just looked at the latest progress of the attack from the newspapers which recorded the battle reports from the front line.

In the morning, Li Xuan opened his eyes while playing the game. He saw the crossed thighs of Asuna and Erina on his body, and the warm breath of the two people on his cheeks.

There is a sleeping function in the death game, which can restore the player's spirit and hunger, so many players will choose to rest in the hotel when they are not leveling up.

Li Xuan and his companions were tired from playing in the Lake Forest, so they rested in the house. Although the theme of the Death Game was to conquer the floating city of Aincrad, other things aside, were still good, with fun and real-life AI. Ignoring the physical threats, many people regarded this place as a normal world.

There are wind and rain in all seasons, day and night alternate, and all things grow here. All of this, plus the interweaving of various human personalities, is no different from the normal world except that there are no modern equipment.

Asuna and her friends learned all the skills they liked in this world. In addition to fighting and upgrading every day, they went around looking for rare materials with Tokisaki Kurumi and her sisters.

Li Xuan fights with a few people from time to time to improve his combat skills and awareness. In the real world, Li Xuan is reluctant to train Asuna and the others intensively, but this is a game, and a consciousness stealth game. Many things cannot appear in the real world, but people's consciousness and trained reactions can appear.

After being trained by Li Xuan for nearly a month, Asuna and the others have improved their combat skills and intuition, but every day they would go to Li Xuan's room inside and outside the game to complain about how cruel this man was.

However, the result is that Asuna and the others can fight against karate masters like Xiaolan who have trained for many years and have rich fighting skills on equal terms.

After all, Li Xuan was planning to take them all to travel in the fantasy world in the future, and it would not do without some fighting power. For this reason, Li Xuan specially built a room that combined fitness training and competition arena not far from the hot spring that was almost completed.

Here Li Xuan taught Asuna and the others martial arts skills, and trained them according to their respective attributes. Whether their fighting ability has been greatly improved can only be known in actual combat, but after the intense training, Asuna and the others' bodies have become more tight and graceful.

The most enthusiastic ones among them were actually Katsura Kotonoha and Saionji Sekai, who often exercised until they were covered in sweat. But think about it, they were from the Iai family and they had a lot of exercise at home, which could be seen from the fact that they got up early every day to practice sword meditation. Sometimes they would stay in Li Xuan's room that night and would drag Li Xuan up with them the next day.

Asuna, Erina, Tokisaki Kurumi and the others just want to maintain their figure, and proper exercise will promote their body growth. During this period, Yukinoshita Yukino is also a frequent visitor to the villa. After Yukinoshita Yukino's family learned that their youngest daughter knew Li Xuan, they immediately turned down all the invitations to banquets for Yukinoshita, and also asked Yukinoshita Yukino and her sister Yukinoshita Haruno to visit from time to time.

After the beach activity ended that day, Yukinoshita Yukino was also taken to the villa by Li Xuan to activate her internal energy. Now she has begun to try Li Xuan's folk remedies, but the effect does not seem to be very good. However, Li Xuan specially asked Gurefia to bring some warming and tonic things from Daxia. After Yukino and Asuna used them, the scale began to change gratifyingly.

However, although this thing is relatively common, it cannot be cultivated artificially and can only grow with the help of nature. We can only wait and see if it exists in the fantasy world in the future.

Li Xuan logged into the quality inspector account at night amidst the somewhat disappointed looks of Asuna and Yukino, and concluded that Asuna had caught up with Erina and the current scale was just right, while Yukino was still two levels short and would have to wait until later.

The real-life training and intense battles in the game made Asuna and the others' fighting skills soar, and this was soon put into practice and confirmed in a special event.

Chapter 126 Smiling Coffin

That night, Li Xuan and his friends logged into the game as normal, while Asuna and his friends gathered together and started talking about the rumors they had heard in the past few days.

The death game is divided into combat zones and non-combat safe zones. Towns are safe zones and attack behavior cannot be judged. Attacks can only be carried out after leaving the town.

However, in recent days, news has been circulating that someone was killed in the safe zone. Erina and her friends opened a store in the town selling cooking and knives, and heard discussions from players.

The details are that someone saw a person being attacked by another person with a weapon in the town. Normally, there should be a reminder that the attack could not be judged, but what was seen that day was that the body of the person being attacked turned into pieces and dissipated.

When the health bar of a death game player is emptied, he will enter a state of death and turn into fragments and dissipate.

According to the information that came out, the bodies of the people who were attacked in the town also turned into fragments and dissipated, which surprised the players, because if this was the case, the town would no longer be safe, and the red-named murderers would be able to do whatever they wanted.
