Zongman: My days as a chaebol in Japan

As time passed, the players' strategies only stopped at the 60th level. Many players began to level up and upgrade their equipment again. Many players were dissatisfied that all the good resources were taken by the strategy group. Moreover, it has been almost two months, and no one has suddenly disconnected. This shows that the authenticity of the real body nearing the end needs to be verified.

Then the bad qualities of some people began to emerge, and a group of people who enjoyed robbing and killing players appeared. They even formed a guild called "Smiling Coffin". The president was very mysterious, and only his name was Poh. They usually used the maze area on a certain floor as their base camp.

A player guild was also established on the strategy front, named "Crimson Knights Alliance". The leader was called Heathcliff. They chose the town on the 55th floor as their base. The leader, Heathcliff, invited various expert players to enter the strategy floor.

There are other smaller groups, such as the Revolutionary Army, which has now become a group that exploits lower-level players, and the Black Knights, who also hope to reach the top. These are more positive groups.

The Smiling Coffin is a purely criminal organization. Several alliances have attacked these people many times but have not been able to completely eradicate them.

Therefore, many people wonder whether Laughing Coffin has mastered some method to cause damage in the safe zone.

For a while, the attack on the front line came to a halt, because not only did the attributes need to be improved, but the logistics here also came to a standstill because of the safe zone and people's suspicion about the Smiling Coffin.

In the maze area on the thirty-fourth floor, Li Xuan dodged the oncoming dagger by leaning sideways, and turned around to cut off the hand of the player who attacked him. The attacker was wearing a black robe, with a smiling blood-red skull on the back of his hand. There was no doubt that Li Xuan and Asuna were attacked by the Smiling Coffin.

Li Xuan was planning to accompany Asuna and the others to collect rare items in the maze area today. Unexpectedly, when they were halfway there, several members of the Smiling Coffin wearing black robes rushed out from the stone pillars on the side and attacked them.

However, with the reaction ability of Li Xuan and his men, it was easy for them to dodge. Then Li Xuan launched a counterattack. After a few rounds, a human stick appeared under Li Xuan's feet.

Because it is a digital body, so as long as it is not in a special state, the damage is only settled once. If it were in reality, he would have bled to death if he turned into a human stick. However, in the death game, as long as he is not in a state of continuous blood loss such as curse or poisoning, he can refresh his state over time.

However, being cut into a human stick was probably the first time for this member of the Smiling Coffin. The real pain made him unable to hold back his tears and snot, which flowed out crazily.

When Li Xuan heard the noisy sound, he picked up the weapon that fell on the ground, wrapped it in his black robe, and stuffed it into his mouth.

On the other side, Asuna and her friends' battle also ended. Asuna and Erina only beat the attackers until they lost their ability to fight, while Tokisaki Kurumi, Katsura Kotonoha, and Saionji Sekai directly imitated Li Xuan's moves and turned all their opponents into human sticks.

After throwing a few people together, Li Xuan saw that Asuna and Erina looked a little uncomfortable, so he just said lightly, "Don't have any mercy on the enemy. You must remember the story of the farmer and the snake. If you don't need their information, killing them directly is the best option."

Asuna and then Erina are both kind people, but the difference is that Tokisaki Kurumi was born in the fantasy world and has learned the habit of killing enemies since childhood. Katsura Kotonoha and Saionji Sekai are from the Iai family and have long been skilled in swordsmanship. The Irene sisters and Toosaka Rin and the others, the former saw many pirates when she went to sea with her family when she was young, and the latter are from a jewel family, and there are always many thieves who covet the jewels.

Only Asuna and Erina are special. Due to their environments, they rarely come into contact with bloody things, so Li Xuan has been intentionally letting them gradually get used to it these days.

"I know, Xuanjun, we will adapt as soon as possible." The two of them also understood this, so they were gradually adapting, but this would take a process.

Seeing the serious faces of the two, Li Xuan smiled and said, "No need to be so serious. I just want you to get over that hurdle in your hearts. You will always be by my side in the future, and you will witness situations that are a million times more serious than this. I don't want me to regret because of your kindness. You are the only ones in my heart."

After hearing Li Xuan's words, Asuna and Erina felt regretful and touched. Then they looked at each other, nodded, and turned the two people who had lost their fighting ability into human sticks and threw them to the position of their accomplices.

Li Xuan saw the two people's actions and nodded with satisfaction. After all, they were the people he chose, and their adaptability was maximized.

The long sword tapped the person who was shouting, Li Xuan exerted a little force, and the long sword stabbed in. The man who was originally stagnant and recovering suddenly dropped a bit. "Mr. who is shouting, can you tell me the address of your guild? I remember your guild seems to be called Smiling Coffin, right?"

The red-named player was about to respond, but the health bar above his head had been emptied in the process and turned into fragments and dissipated.

Li Xuan had no choice but to move his sword to the next stickman, and said with a bit of regret, "Oh, I forgot to give him time to recover his blood. So, this gentleman's companion, can you tell me where he is?"

Chapter 127 The Destruction of the Smiling Coffin

Looking at the long sword that was ready to stab into his chest at any time, the player of Smiling Coffin was a little mentally collapsed. The physical pain and mental torture made this player who enjoyed killing couldn't help but tell out all the address and personnel information.

It’s just a pity that he doesn’t know who President Poh is, because every time Poh appears, he is blocked by a black robe and a mask.

After checking the information with several other thugs and finding that they were correct, Li Xuan sent an email with coordinates to a bald player, and then waited at the spot with Asuna and the others. By the way, he tied up all the Smiling Coffin players after they recovered.

“Hey, Lightning, you are worthy of it. You actually caught the red-named bastards from Smiling Coffin. Our Blood Alliance Knights and several other teams have never found them.” As the voice came from afar, a team of people in red and white robes approached quickly. The leader had a bald head and looked to be in his forties. This was someone Li Xuan met when he was fishing, a captain of the Blood Alliance Knights.

Li Xuan waved his hand and asked them to take these people back and put them in jail. There was no way for them to get out before the game was completed. As for the information about the lair of Smiling Coffin, Li Xuan did not keep it to himself. Finally, the bald man invited Li Xuan and his team to encircle and suppress Smiling Coffin. Li Xuan thought about it and did not refuse.

Asuna and the other girl need more practical experience. They can't always show mercy. They should just keep their kindness to themselves and a group of good sisters.

So they agreed on a time, and Li Xuan, Asuna and the others continued on the purpose of their trip.

When the bald man was forcing the Smiling Coffin men back, the Smiling Coffin men saw that they had left the range of Li Xuan and his men, and immediately started shouting, saying things like "Li Xuan also killed someone, why are you only arresting us?"

However, after a few heavy punches from the bald guy, they calmed down and were thrown into the jail obediently. They were considered useless, and the bloody purple names on their heads meant that they had to stay in jail until the game was shut down before they had a chance to get out.

After collecting the things, Li Xuan brought Asuna and others to the entrance of the maze area on the 36th floor. The bald man was already waiting with several people from his team. This time, all the members of the Knights of the Smiling Coffin Blood Alliance were mobilized by their leader Heathcliff to encircle and suppress the Laughing Coffin. When he saw Li Xuan and others, they nodded to each other and greeted each other secretly.

But I know that Li Xuan and others are also in this death game experiment, and my president's daughter is a witness to this project.

He led the team in first, and people from several teams separated and surrounded the people with the Smiling Coffin according to the plan. Soon, many people in black robes were chased everywhere.

Li Xuan did not take action. He had already told Asuna and Erina on the way that this was a practical test for them both.

The result did not disappoint Li Xuan. Asuna and Erina thought of the miserable conditions of the players they saw in the newspaper and Li Xuan's expectations of themselves. There was no more kindness in their eyes towards these people. They raised their swords and rushed forward, instantly knocking down the black-robed man in front of them. The high-speed sword drawing speed completed more than a dozen consecutive hits in an instant, and the black-robed man disappeared with a scream.

The move was decisive and neat. Li Xuan nodded. It seemed that Asuna and the others had passed the level in their hearts. Although he knew that this was just death in the death game, Li Xuan saw Heathcliff, transformed by Kayaba Akihiko, looked at these people for a few times, and then an email was sent. Li Xuan opened it and saw that smart people deal with each other differently. Isn't it normal for a few people to die in the death game? And others can wake up normally. It's the dead's own problem.

After Asuna and Erina got rid of the first enemy, they reacted completely and their attacks became more fierce. This encirclement was very successful. The base camp of Laughing Coffin was destroyed. President Poh used some kind of teleportation tool to teleport away from the maze. Then there were the remaining dozens of people, all with red marks on their heads and purple names. In reality, they would definitely be dragged out and fed peanuts for five minutes.

Li Xuan greeted the bald man, nodded to Heathcliff, turned around and took Asuna and the others out of the maze area and returned to the house in the Lake Forest.

Asuna and Erina had a complicated look in their eyes at this time, but it soon disappeared because Li Xuan hugged them in his arms, gave them an approving evaluation in their ears, and then kissed them lightly. With the activation of the Bad Hand skill, the complexity in their hearts completely disappeared.

After all, the sensory system in the death game is very similar to that in the real world, and the long sword attacks on the body are just like weapons attacking objects in reality. Just now, Asuna and Erina each killed at least seven or eight people from the Laughing Coffin. Now that the fighting spirit has subsided, it is normal to feel a little uncomfortable when they think about it.

After a treatment that he approved of, Li Xuan has now been kicked out of the room by Asuna and Erina, who were embarrassed and rolled their eyes at him. He is now on the balcony, hugging Tokisaki Kurumi and enjoying the breeze from the lake.

"Mr. Xuan, it's incredible. Just by relying on the Internet and machines, you can actually steal a part of the creative power belonging to the gods. The feeling of the breeze and the lake water, humans have an enviable creative imagination," Tokisaki Kurumi, who hugged Li Xuan's neck and sat sideways on Li Xuan's thighs, praised the holographic stealth technology with admiration.

Li Xuan lowered his head and tapped the pink lips of the elf girl, "Human creative talent is hidden in every cell of everyone, but most of the time they don't use it in the right direction."

When Tokisaki Kurumi heard Li Xuan's evaluation, she nodded in agreement. It was natural that disputes would arise when the human race alone occupied the land of the human world, and the strong would prey on the weak. However, the records of the final winners were different.

As the hanging rattan chair swayed gently, the two whispered to each other in the breeze, making the elf girl in their arms giggle from time to time. Finally, the two hugged each other and closed their eyes.

In the room, Kotonoha Katsura and Sekai Saionji were sharing their experiences in Iai training and sharpening their blades with Asuna and Erina. After they finished sharing, they heard the voices of Li Xuan and Tokisaki Kurumi outside stop, so they came out.

Seeing two people hugging each other on the hanging rattan chair, the breeze entangles their hair together, and the two people hugging each other tightly looks enviable.

Li Xuan just closed his eyes and did not fall asleep like Tokisaki Kurumi. He felt the voices around him, opened his eyes, and saw Asuna and the other three. Seeing their envious looks, he smiled, stretched out a hand, and pointed to the empty spaces on both sides of him.

So, the balcony where two people were originally hugging each other became a balcony where five people could lie down together. The hanging rattan chair was of very good quality, and Li Xuan planned to build one in the yard outside.

Chapter 128 Adventure Group, Aaron

At night, Li Xuan woke up several beautiful girls, and after eating the dinner carefully prepared by Gurefia and the others, he entered the game again.

the next day.

After the destruction of the Smiling Coffin, another safe zone murder occurred. This time there were more witnesses, and it happened outside the town’s church.

Many people saw with their own eyes that the players turned into pieces and disappeared, and suddenly, panic spread again.

Li Xuan, who received the commission, was entrusted by the bald head of the Blood Alliance Knights to help investigate the matter. Because of the destruction of the Smiling Coffin, although Li Xuan and his companions had no intention of going to the front line, the bald head still recognized the strength of this Tiantian Air Force brother, so he entrusted this investigation to Li Xuan.

Li Xuan started the investigation with Asuna and the others who were equally curious. According to the information provided by the bald guy, the deceased was a player of the Holy Dragon Alliance. When he was found, he was hanging on the big bell outside the church. Not long after, he turned into fragments of death.

Curious Asuna and her friends thought they needed to find a friend of the Holy Dragon Alliance victim to ask if the victim had offended anyone recently.

Li Xuan looked at the information, and then went to the church with Asuna and the others to see where the victim was killed. Asuna and Erina even attacked each other on the spot, but it showed that the attack was ineffective.

This was the protection area of ​​the safe zone, and the function of the safe zone had not been lost. So how did the people of the Holy Dragon Alliance get killed? The four of them brainstormed and finally decided to find the witness who was in the church bell tower at the time.

Ye Zi, this was the person who was on the bell tower when the incident happened, and the victim actually knew Ye Zi and was friends with him.

Mark, this is the name of the victim.

When Li Xuan and Asuna found Ye Zi, Ye Zi was in a hotel, her face full of struggle and anxiety. When she saw that Li Xuan and his group came to ask about Mark, excitement appeared in her eyes, and she began to tell Li Xuan and the others about Mark.

After listening to Ye Zi's words, Li Xuan has confirmed that this is not an incident in the circle. I thought it was something else, but it turned out to be a real victim. However, could it be that the wife lady became the real victim? Li Xuan became a little interested.

Afterwards, they learned about Mark's identity and his former adventure team, and found out that another person had been killed before, and that person was their leader. This further aroused the curiosity of Asuna and the others, and that Yako actually kept the weapon that killed their leader.

Asuna immediately took Yako and the weapons and went to Linda Division on the 48th floor. Li Xuan became even more curious because it seemed that there really was a friend of Asuna here.

Arriving at the door of a weapons store, Asuna pushed the door open and went in, calling out in a tender voice, "Fabre, Fabre, I have something to talk to you about, come out quickly."

When Li Xuan heard Fabre's name, his curiosity was slightly dampened. Her name was not Lizbeth.

Then a neutral female voice came out from the forge of the weapon shop. A young girl who looked to be in her twenties came out with an average appearance.

When Fabre saw that it was his friend Asuna who came to see him, he was very happy, "Oh, it's Asuna, are you here to ask me to make weapons? I have learned a new weapon diagram now."

Fabre happily shared his joy with Asuna, and Asuna happily congratulated her friend upon hearing his words. After a while, Asuna told him the purpose of her visit.

"Identify the weapon? I can try, but if it is a privately made weapon, there should be information about the person who made it on it," Fabre nodded and said.

Asuna handed over the weapon she got from Yako, which was painted red and had a thorn-like shape.

Fabre placed the weapon on the table, then used his forging skills to identify the detailed information of the weapon.

"The weapon was made by a blacksmith named Aaron, huh? Aaron? I don't think I've heard of him in our blacksmith circle. He should be a blacksmith of a lower level. And weapons of this shape are also rare." After Fabre finished speaking, he was still looking at the sword body of the weapon carefully.

Li Xuan saw that when Ye Zi heard Fabre say Aaron's name, a look of disbelief appeared in his eyes for a moment, but Li Xuan did not ask immediately. Instead, he continued to listen. Although it was not the name he remembered, the story seemed similar.

There was no other information after that. After Fabre saw the close relationship between Asuna and Li Xuan, he was surprised by Li Xuan's outstanding appearance, and then he praised Asuna for her sharp vision.

After getting to know Fabre, the few of them said goodbye to Fabre and prepared to find a place to inquire about the blacksmith named Aaron.

At this time, Asuna seemed to have thought of a candidate, so she pulled Li Xuan and others and started walking towards the portal. However, Ye Zi said that someone was looking for her, so she went back first. Asuna didn't think much about it, but just told Ye Zi that he could contact her if he found anything. After that, the two added each other as friends.

Asuna took Li Xuan to where she wanted to go.

On the 25th floor, Famila's shop.

Pushing the door open, Asuna saw the girl who was swatting mosquitoes out of boredom at the counter in the store, and greeted her happily, "Famila, I'm here to see you."

Famira is a girl of about the same age as Asuna. According to Asuna, Famira is at the highest level in forging and identification skills.

"Eh? It's Asuna. Wow, long time no see. I missed you so much." Famira's voice sounded a little delicate. She looked good, but her figure was a bit unpleasant. Li Xuan thought that Yukinoshita Yukino didn't seem to be much better than Famira before she ate the food he specially found for her.

After talking with Famira for a while, Asuna began to ask about her own affairs, "Famira, do you know a blacksmith named Aaron?"

After hearing Asuna's question, Famira scratched her hair and thought carefully about the blacksmiths she knew in the circle. Suddenly, she remembered that an adventure group came to her place a few days ago. Among them was a man named Aaron, and they also borrowed her forging table. He should be a blacksmith.

Asuna was not in a hurry. She just took Li Xuan's arm and quietly looked at her friend who was in deep thought. Then she saw the look of realization in her friend's eyes, and Asuna knew that the information she was looking for was found.

Sure enough, Famira raised her head and told Aaron's information, and also told her about the adventure group that came together that day. Then, Famira found that Asuna was intimately holding the arm of the super handsome guy who came in with her.

Once again, I give a thumbs up to Asuna’s vicious eyes.

Chapter 129 Ye Zi, "Death"

After listening to what Famira said, Asuna also learned the information about this Aaron blacksmith, but the question now is how to find this Aaron blacksmith?

Famira did provide a solution to Asuna's troubles.

"Asuna, the other day I saw someone coming with this guy named Aaron. Their adventure group seemed to be called the Night Adventure Group. Or you can follow this clue to find them," Famira gave Asuna an idea.

"Night Adventure Group? Thank you, Famira, you've been a great help. I'm going to go do my work now and I'll come find you shopping later." After hearing the news, Asuna pulled Li Xuan, Erina and the others out of Famira's shop. As it was already noon, everyone found a tavern and planned to have lunch before going to the Adventure Group Guild.
