t gt The starting town, the central square. ```` An astonishing number of light pillars flashed in the central square where the game started.
Each light pillar was a player.
Soon, the large central square was filled to the brim.
Nearly ten thousand people.
All the players in the game currently have been transferred to this square like Zheng Shuanglong and his party.
For a few seconds, the crowd fell silent because they were confused about the situation, and then began to look at their surroundings in panic.
Soon after, noisy sounds began to be heard from various places, and the volume gradually became louder.
Zheng Shuanglong and his party kept hearing words like "What's going on?"
"Can I log out now?"
"Hurry up and let me log out."
After a while, the crowd's noise began to take on an anxious atmosphere, and roars such as "Stop joking" and "Get out of here" could be heard.
Suddenly, someone's shout drowned out the noisy sounds.
"Ah look up there" Most players reflexively look up.
Then, I saw a wonderful sight.
A hundred meters above, at the bottom of the second level, there was a bright red checkerboard pattern.
If you look closely, you can see that the pattern is formed by two English words arranged alternately.
As for the two single characters written in bright red fonts, it is.
Seeing this scene that seemed to be when g appeared, the noise in the square also subsided, and it felt like everyone was pricking up their ears and preparing to hear the announcement.
It seems that I feel reassured because problems with customer service seem to be solved.
But, can the problem really be solved?
A red pattern covering the entire sky.
The central part of it is like a huge drop of blood that is quite thick and slowly drips downwards.
But the blood did not drip to the ground, but suddenly changed its shape in mid-air.
What appeared there was a giant nearly twenty meters tall and wearing a crimson cloak.
Looking at this g that appeared with an unknown bloody light.
The players present seemed to feel a little uneasy in their hearts, and they began to talk about it, and then voices like "Is that G?"
could be heard everywhere.
At this time, as if to stop these restless sounds, the right sleeve of the cloak suddenly moved.
Pure white gloves can be seen from the enlarged cuffs.
But the sleeves and gloves are obviously separate from each other.
Some parts are completely invisible.
Then the left sleeve was slowly raised.
On the heads of ten thousand players, the empty white gloves opened to the left and right, and it felt like the faceless man was opening his mouth, and then immediately a man's deep and clear voice came from far above.
"Dear players, welcome to my world.
My name is Kayaba Akihiko.
I am the only person who can control this world now."
Hear this g’s self-introduction.
The players present were all shocked.
Kayaba Akihiko As a super game enthusiast, how could I not have heard the story of Kayaba Akihiko.
A few years ago, arg was just one of many small and small game development companies.
Now it has grown to be called the largest game development company in the industry.
The driving force comes from this young genius game designer and quantum physicist.
He is not only the developer and producer of the game sao, but also the basic designer of the device nervgear.
"I think all players should have noticed that the logout button has disappeared from the main menu screen.
But this is not a problem with the game.

I repeat.
This is not a problem with the game, but with the original version."
Ignoring the panic and uneasiness in the hearts of the players present.
Kayaba Akihiko continued to announce smoothly in a low voice: "From now on, you will not be able to log out of this game until you reach the top of this castle."
"Besides.
There is no way for outsiders to stop or deactivate Nervgear.
If anyone tries to do so," Kayaba Akihiko slowly said the desperate announcement in the heavy silence of ten thousand people holding their breath.
Come out: "The microwaves emitted by Nervgear's signal component will destroy your brain and stop your life activities."
For several seconds, the players present looked at Kayaba Akihiko in the sky with dull expressions.
Instinctively refuse to understand the meaning of that passage in my mind.
However, Kayaba's very concise declaration directly penetrated the players present from head to toe with its ferocious hardness and density.
Destroy the brain.
That means killing people.
Turn off the power to the nervgear.
Or if you unlock the fixed lock and try to take it off your head, the user wearing the nervgear will be killed.
That was Kayaba's declaration.
There was a commotion, and commotion came from all parts of the crowd.
But no one was shouting or rioting yet.
Probably they have not yet understood or refuse to understand what Kayaba said.
In a peaceful world.
How could such a thing happen?
Isn't this a brutal murderer?
A murderer who kidnapped 10,000 people.
When people were stupid, panicked, and uneasy, Kayaba Akihiko continued to announce from the sky certain announcements that would push the already panicked players into a hell of despair: "More specifically, if the external power supply is cut off for more than ten minutes, the network is disconnected for more than two hours, and attempts are made to destroy the nervgear body or unlock the fixed lock, the brain destruction program will only be executed under the above conditions.
And these conditions, It has been announced to the outside world through our company and the media.
By the way, at this point in time, many family members and friends of players have ignored our warnings and tried to forcefully cancel Nervgear, and the result is " "Unfortunately, there are currently two hundred and thirteen players who have permanently retired from the real world and Aincrad."
I don't know where the only cry came from.
In addition, most of the players around either cannot believe it or are unwilling to believe this fact.
There is only a slight smile on the face or a dazed state.
There are already two hundred and thirteen players This sentence was repeatedly played in the ears of the players present.
If what Kayaba said is true, then at this point in time, more than 200 people have died?
Panic turned into fear, and anxiety turned into despair.
Everyone present instinctively refused to believe this reality, shouting loudly: "It's just to scare people.
This kind of thing can't be done.
Stop blabbing there.
Get me out of here right away.
I don’t have enough time to play with you.
Yes, this is all a performance for the game, isn’t it?
and words of hope.
However, as if to wipe out the hope of all players, Kayaba's announcement of work matters started again.
"You don't need to worry about your body in the real world.
Now all TV, radio, and online media are constantly reporting on this situation and the many victims.
Therefore, the nervgears on your heads have been forcibly removed.
The risk can be said to have been reduced to a considerable level It's a low level.
From now on, I hope that your body in the real world will be moved to a hospital or other facility during the two-hour disconnection time while wearing Nervgear.

You can just focus on conquering the game with peace of mind.”
"However, I hope everyone will pay special attention.
For you, it is no longer just a game, but another real world.
In the future, all resurrection functions will be canceled in the game.
So when h becomes zero, your character will Destroyed forever, and your brains will be destroyed by nervgear."
At this moment, the vast majority of players instinctively looked at the slender green-lighting horizontal line in the upper left corner of their sight. residual value of life.
The moment it reaches zero, you will truly die.
According to Kayaba, your brain will be cooked by microwaves and you will die immediately.
This is indeed a game.
It's a real game of life and death.
That is, the game of death.
The so-called rg.
It's a game where you die constantly and gain experience points to improve your skills.
Now it is said that there is no way to resurrect and once you die, you will really lose your life.
What is even more exaggerated is that you cannot actively stop the game.
Under such conditions, would anyone want to run to the dangerous area?
All players will definitely hide in the safe street area.
However, how could Kayaba Akihiko, who was able to design this magical world, not see through the players' thoughts.
The desperate voice echoed again: "There is only one condition that can liberate you from this game.
As I just mentioned, reach the highest level of Aincrad, that is, the 100th layer, and then defeat the final demon waiting there.
I guarantee that all surviving players can safely log out of the game at that moment.”
Listen to this announcement of the only hope in despair.
All ten thousand players fell silent.
"It's going to be the 100th floor."
A warrior-faced player not far from Zheng Shuanglong suddenly roared and stood up quickly.
His right fist was raised towards the sky.
"How, how is it possible to do it?
I heard that it was very difficult to attack during the closed beta test."
There is no solution.
This is an almost unsolvable problem.
Ten thousand players, conquering one hundred floors.
When most of them are novices, and when everyone has only one life, how can they achieve the silence that enveloped the scene?
It didn't take long for them to be surrounded by low noises.
Submerged.
But there was almost no sound of terror or despair amidst the din.
How could ordinary people living in a peaceful era accept this?
How could they admit this reality?
You know, a few hours ago, they were still enjoying peaceful daily life.
But now, haha, he was led into a desperate death game by Kayaba Akihiko.
How could this kind of thing and this kind of result be accepted?
At this time, the red cloak, who was always thinking one step ahead of the players, moved his right hand lightly, and announced in a voice without any emotion: "Finally, let everyone see that this world is the only reality for you.
The evidence.
Please take a look at the gifts I have prepared in your inventory.
Upon hearing this, the two fingers of most players' right hands almost automatically waved directly downward.
A series of electronic ringing effects sounded in the square.

After tapping the item bar tab from the main menu that appeared.
At the top of the list of items displayed was the gift Kayaba mentioned.
The prop name is.
I clicked on the name and selected the materialization button from the window that appeared.
Accompanied by a bright sound effect, a small square mirror appeared immediately.
At this time, the player is suddenly enveloped in white light.
In just two or three seconds, the real faces in the real world appeared in this game world.
Those who looked like the handsome men and beauties who appeared in the fantasy adventure game just a few dozen seconds ago were all gone. .
Instead, it was like gathering many guests at a game exhibition venue.
And then put a bunch of real-world young people in armor.
What’s even more frightening is that the ratio of men to women has changed considerably.
The players around them looked at themselves and others in silence, and the average height was obviously much lower than before the "change".
Not only that, the average horizontal growth of the body has actually increased a lot.
A few seconds after "reality" appeared, a solemn voice came from the blood-red sky: "You must be thinking why now.
Why did SAO and Nervgear developer Kayaba Akihiko do this?
This is a big deal.
Is it a large-scale terrorist operation or a kidnapping case for ransom?”
Kayaba's tone had been completely emotionless before.
The voice at this time had some emotion.
A certain feeling called longing.
"These are not my goals.
It can even be said that I have no purpose or reason now.
If I want to say why, it is because for me, this situation is the ultimate goal.
Creating this world and watching it, I am It was for this purpose that I invented nervgear and created sao.
Now, all my goals have been achieved.”
After a short period of time, Kayaba's voice returned to inorganic matter.
"That's it for the official game description.
I wish you good luck to all players."
The last words left some echoes before disappearing.
The huge bright red cloak rose silently, starting from the tip of the hat.
As if melting, it gradually assimilates with the system information covering the entire sky.
Its shoulders, chest and limbs slowly sank into the blood-red water, leaving only a ripple spreading out.
Then, the message that filled the entire sky was the same as when it appeared.
Suddenly disappeared.
The game returns to its original appearance again.
The only change is that some of the rules of the game have changed.
Then things got to this point, and finally Only then did the player group of 10,000 people react as they should.
In short, overwhelming and super loud noises were emitted from many places, causing the entire square to shake.
"It's a lie.
What's going on?
It must be a lie."
"Stop joking, let me out, let me out of here."
"It bothers me a lot that I have to date someone next time."
"No, let me go back, let me go back, ah ah ah" Wail, roar, scream, curse, plead, and growl.
In just a few dozen minutes.

Some of the gamers turned prisoners were squatting on the ground with their heads in their hands.
Some raised their hands to the sky, and some hugged each other.
Some even started to defend each other.
"Hahaha, this is really interesting, really really interesting.
There is great terror between life and death.
Faced with such terror, should we face death, stand up our chest, muster up the courage to fight out, or should we kneel down?
Knees, escape into your own world, cowardly living in an ignoble existence.
Let me appreciate this wonderful world, Kayaba Akihiko."
While listening to countless shouts, Zheng Shuanglong laughed happily and unrestrainedly from the bottom of his heart. got up.
I didn't expect that there are such wonderful people in this world.
This game is worth playing.
