As Xia Jia was sleeping, he even yawned and simply closed his eyes. The world became magical in the next second.

"what?"

An inexplicable feeling surrounded Xia Jia.

A vague feeling emerged in his mind.

"Is this... a small universe?"

Xia Jia, who was in soul state, discovered the problem unexpectedly.

Whether it was Yuuki or Asuna, they could sense the aura of the microcosm, but the monster in front of them did not have that.

“Is it because of the data?”

This difference deepened his understanding of the microcosm. After closing his eyes, the battle was like his perception was sealed, and he could only rely on his sixth sense to make judgments.

He suddenly tilted his head back, and a strong wind suddenly flashed across his nose. The axe blade flashed past Xia Jia's eyes and almost hit the target.

"interesting."

Xia Jia raised the corner of his mouth, and aura suddenly appeared on his body. His [Brilliant Talent] was brought to its fullest, sensing the non-existent monster.

Whoosh, whoosh, whoosh.

Xia Jia would rise or fall, flip over and slash sideways, slide and cut downward, and sometimes step on the opponent's knees, rush forward and slash at the neck of the kobold lord.

The blood bar slid down slowly, but the monster didn't hit Xia Jia once.

until a certain moment.

"We're here to help you!"

Yuki and the others dealt with the guards, and a brilliant purple light burst out in front of the Kobold Lord. The 12 sword holes were closed in an instant, and a rose bloomed.

brush--

Originally with only two and a half health points left, it dropped significantly in an instant and reached the last line of health. The red health bar warned everyone of danger.

The Kobold Lord emitted a terrifying shock wave from his body, completely freezing the surrounding players. At the same time, he squatted down and drew out the saber from his back.

"It's been a long time coming!"

Xia Jia, who had noticed something was wrong a long time ago, left the control area at the beginning and rushed forward now. His eyes were shining with golden light, and his powerful soul power broke through the system restrictions, turning into a ray of starlight, taking Yuki away from the attack range of the Kobold Lord.

brush--

A huge sword slash flashed by, and there was no one in the range.

The next moment, Shaka's figure suddenly appeared in front of the ogre lord, holding two swords in his hands, and his eyes were flickering with a light that symbolized disregard for all control.

The Kobold Lord wanted to complain: "You are cheating."

But Xia Jiake couldn't understand the monster's roar, and he raised the corner of his mouth playfully and sneered:

"Who says you can only perform combos if you master the dual-sword style?"

"Look at me rubbing the board! Starburst and Healing Slash!"

While the Kobold Lord was frozen in his stance, 16 high-speed slashes transformed into alternating blue waves.

The health of the Kobold Lord dropped instantly, and Mite and Asuna, who had finished their stiffness behind him, also seized the opportunity and rushed out.

The light of the skill fell, and the Kobold Lord let out an unwilling roar before exploding into pieces.

At this moment...

The news of completing the level appeared in the eyes of all the players, causing those who were still swinging their swords on the first floor to be stunned for dozens of seconds.

"That's it... we've cleared the first level?"

"So, it will only take 50 days at most for us to get out?"

"That's not the way to calculate it. There are only four of them. We also have closed beta testers and a strategy team. The speed will definitely get faster and faster in the future!"

For a moment, the brick-moving players worked harder and harder.

They realized that as long as they worked hard enough, they could not only get bonuses and honors, but they could even end their current lives early!

"Don't stop me, I want to move bricks! Woo! I won't sleep anymore, give me liver!"

A huge enthusiasm broke out in the town of origin.

Cheng Hui pushed up his glasses and said, "Get ready. Send someone to the second floor to buy equipment. Then it's almost time for the raiders to set off."

"Let's complete the tasks on the first floor first!"

Xiao knelt on one knee and responded, "Yes!"

The next moment, he disappeared from the spot.

On a farm outside the town, a handsome young man with black hair sneezed:

"Tsk, why do I feel like someone has stolen my things?"

Muttering to himself, he completed the task at hand and obtained the recipe for making the cream.

"This way the black bread won't taste so bad, hehe."

In the maze.

Xia Jia put the [Midnight Coat] from his backpack on Yuuki.

"this?"

Xia Jia said seriously: "Don't you think Yuki looks really handsome in this?"

Asuna nodded, "Yeah, it's much cooler than the muddy coat the captain is wearing!"

Mitt sat on the ground and said seriously:

"At this stage, we can't master advanced sword skills too quickly, so the main output of the lord in the future will still be Yuki. It is a very powerful equipment and is most suitable for Yuki."

Xia Jia squinted his eyes: It has to be you, the closed beta player!

Yuuki rubbed his nose and raised his scissor hands: "Hehe, then leave it to me! I will definitely rescue everyone!"

Chapter 473 Exploding Cream

Everyone adjusted their equipment and went up the stairs to the upper level, freeing the teleportation anchor leading to the second level.

Xia Jia suggested: "Let's go back to the starting town through the teleportation array first. There are still many wild bosses worth killing on the first floor. At this time, the players in the closed beta test group should mark the locations and positions."

After completing the strategy for the first level, the teleportation to each town on this level has been unlocked, and players can now move to the second level through the teleportation devices in the towns.

Mitt agreed, "We are at a disadvantage compared to the other floors, and we need some monsters to replenish our experience points."

Yuuki saw what Xia Jia really meant, "Aren't you going with us?"

Xia Jia smiled and said, "I'll just take a look around the second floor. Rather than leveling up, I hope to improve my own strength through this game."

After the previous BOSS battle, he accidentally discovered the function of this game.

The essence of SAO is to change the five senses to allow players to enter a state of complete stealth, which is actually no different from blocking the five senses.

Of these false five senses, only the sixth sense can act on the real thing. The early warning from danger can help him further master the sixth sense.

Asuna was a little worried about Shaka acting alone. After all, SAO is still a game that depends on numbers. If you encounter an overwhelming attribute, mistakes may occur even if you rely solely on operations.

But she recalled that Xia Jia seemed to have broken through the system limitations and fought against the paralysis before, and smiled:

"We understand. We will upgrade our level as quickly as possible and will not hold you back."

Xia Jia put his hands in his pockets and said, "Don't be so stubborn. You see, Mitt can't stand it anymore. Take a rest for a while. I have something to say to Chenghui later."

……

The three of them separated temporarily, and Xia Jia came to the town on the second floor alone.

The second layer is mainly composed of wastelands and grasslands, and the monsters are basically bulls... well, the kind of pure bulls that crawl on all fours.

Besides that, there are bees.

It is worth mentioning that these bees will attack the bulls, causing them to go into a frenzy. If you are not careful, it may lead to the destruction of the entire group.

Xia Jia covered his eyes, quietly feeling the changes in the environment, and nimbly moved across the map. After encountering a monster, his sixth sense accurately captured the impending danger, and with a single swing of his knife, he cut off one third of a giant bull's health bar.

Immediately he turned around and waved his hand, looking at the camera, and then he saw the camera moving forward.

Xia Jia looked at the experience value that had increased a little, and sighed: "It's only the second level, and fighting against higher-level players no longer exists."

In fact, until the 5th floor, the monsters' levels did not exceed level 15. The one-month delay in the original book did allow the players in the strategy group to accumulate a lot of experience.

As a result, the progress of the strategy was very fast until the 50th floor.

Xia Jia opened his backpack and unexpectedly found some strange dropped objects in the corner of the backpack.

"Milk? Honey? And cream?! Isn't it a bit strange that a cow can burst cream..." Xia Jia's face lit up with joy at first.

The black bread on the first layer was really unpalatable, but I didn’t expect these seasonings to fall directly on the second layer.

But then his face turned weird...

"Where does this cream come from in the cow? Eh, why is it a bit disgusting?" Xia Jia looked at the glass jar in front of him with disdain, feeling uncomfortable with the strange drop rules of the online game.

but……

"This way, Chenghui shouldn't have to worry about the players' psychological problems. No more eating dry black bread."

Xia Jia put away his props and prepared to go back to the starting town.

After activating the transfer crystal purchased from the store, Xia Jia returned to the second floor and walked around the nearby shops. He was surprised to see that the bread sold in the store was no longer black bread.

“As expected, pioneering can bring many different experiences!”

Shaka became more determined to liberate more floors as soon as possible. He took the bread prepared for Asuna and Yuuki, passed through the portal, and returned to the town of origin.

……

In the temporary guild camp, Xia Jia found Cheng Hui who was arranging activities for the players.

"I'm so sorry to have you busy with these trivial matters. You must want to upgrade as well." Xia Jia threw a piece of bread and said, "Try this, it's a benefit for pioneering."

Chenghui looked at the bread in her hand in surprise, and after breaking it open, she saw rich cream.

He shared half of the bread with Xiao Hou who was passing the message back and forth, and took a bite himself: "Hmm~~, not bad, it's good to be able to solve the food problem the next day."

While enjoying the food, he casually said, "There was also a closed beta player who found the task of obtaining cream on the first level, but that task was quite difficult and could not be popularized. You have solved the problem for me."

"As for my upgrade, it won't be too late once everyone has settled down."

"Oh?" Xia Jia asked curiously, "Has anyone been able to complete that kind of task?"

Cheng Hui smiled and said, "He is a very shy boy. Haha, he always looks like he doesn't want strangers to come near him, but in fact he is eager to form a team."

Xia Jia smiled and said, "Ah, I understand, I understand! A 14-year-old boy always thinks that being alone is cool. Now when I put away my sword, I will subconsciously turn around, or turn my back with my hands in my pockets, etc."

Cheng Hui laughed and said, "You? You can become the leader of those special police at this grade. I can't see that you would have such an interest."

Xia Jia spread his hands: "Ah, it's all due to the pressure of life."

After joking, Xia Jia said seriously: "Regarding the safe town on the second level, we can send people to explore it. The recovered funds can also be used to purchase some upper-level equipment."

"By the way, how is the progress of the strategy team now?"

Cheng Hui pushed his glasses up and searched through the pile of documents for a while. "The average level of the strategy team has reached level 4. With uniformly configured highly enhanced equipment, they are upgrading very quickly. It is estimated that by this time tomorrow, they will be able to reach level 8."

"The players in the second stage are also equipped with heavy armor. I asked them to form a team and go outside to find wild boars to practice their skill proficiency."

"Middle-level players, don't let them take too many risks. Remember to always maintain the advantage in numbers." Xia Jia pondered:

"As for the closed beta test players, after they reach level 8, let them go to the second floor. The monsters there drop honey and cream. Let's stabilize the emotions of ordinary people for now."

"I will open the third floor in advance before you finish exploring the second floor."

Cheng Hui nodded and put the exploration of the second floor on the agenda. These new floors have many tasks that can be given to each player once, and completing them will gain a lot of resources.

The progress of the strategy is advancing in an orderly manner.

……

the other side.

Kirito sneezed, and he spread the butter he got from the mission on the black bread, and then distributed it to the 100 people who had contributed the most the day before.

After finishing everything, he sneezed, feeling uncomfortable as if someone else had overshadowed him again.
