"Potions and skill CDs are also ready." said Yuuki Asuna.
"That's good." Yushan Heren nodded and reached his hand into the remaining ball of light.
In an instant, a purple stream rose into the sky and appeared in the depths of the forest. Along with a deafening roar, a giant purple ape with golden horns on its head appeared in front of the three people.
In an instant, the earth shook and Yushan and the other two men moved in the air several times before they could stabilize their bodies.
It was the guardian of the 87th floor - the Light Eater.
"Greedy adventurer, I will make you pay the price!"
Yushan Kazuto exchanged a quick look with Tsuchima Yui and Yuuki Asuna, nodded slightly, and in the blink of an eye they dispersed, forming a triangle and surrounding the Light Eater. A battle was about to break out.
……
"Greedy adventurer! Aincrad will judge you!"
The Light Eater roared to the sky, but unfortunately, this roar exhausted its last bit of strength. After it finished bragging, its body froze and shattered like crystal, turning into countless points of light.
There were only dozens of light balls of different sizes left on the ground, shining brightly.
The entire forest quickly receded, and a ruin emerged. In the ruins, there were dragon-like and tangled tree roots everywhere, which was in line with the name of this layer - the Greedy Root City.
"Hello, are you feeling unwell?" Ignoring the ball of light on the ground, Yushan Kazuto walked to Tsuchima and asked.
Tsuchiya's performance just now was a disaster, not matching her skill level at all. She almost got hit by the Light Eater's ultimate move several times. If it wasn't for protecting Tsuchiya, Yushan Kazuto wouldn't have fought so hard.
If it weren't for the fact that Sao couldn't let someone else log in on his behalf, and that Tsuchima Yui lived in his own house, Yuyama and others would have suspected that Tsuchima Yui had given the game to her younger sister, Xiao Kun, to play.
"No, no." Domama avoided the gaze of Yushan Kazuto. She felt that when she was looked at by Yushan Kazuto, she always had a strange feeling of discomfort all over.
"Then why did you make so many mistakes when fighting the boss today?"
If we judge by the standards of an ordinary player, in fact, Doma Yui had played very well. However, Doma Yui is obviously a master and she did not play at her level at all today, so Yushan and Rencai found it a bit strange.
"Umi-chan, are you sleepy?" Asuna Yuuki suggested another possibility.
"Yes, a little bit." Domama said in a low voice.
Yushan Kazuto also remembered that Domama was knitting until very late last night and was a little unable to get up in the morning. Although it is not too late now, it is almost one o'clock in the morning. It makes sense that Domama is a little sleepy.
"In that case, when we return to the union headquarters, you should log off first, Komari." Yushan Kazuto said.
Tsuchima Mai's beautiful eyes moved and she looked at Yushan Kazuto. She heard clearly that Yushan Kazuto told her to log off first.
"Senior Kazuto, is there anything else between you and Asuna?" asked Yui Doma with some vigilance.
"Asuna and I are going to visit the Blood Alliance Knights. It's time to get the key to the Black Iron Palace back." Yushan Kazuto said.
Although it was agreed that the keys to the Black Iron Palace would be handed over once a month, neither party deliberately memorized the handover time.
It's already mid-December, and once I get the key, it will be just enough to keep it until the end of winter vacation.
"I, I'll go with you!" said Tsuchimiya firmly.
"Hey, aren't you sleepy?" Yushan Heren blinked, "Besides, they can't hear you talking, so you should log off and rest early."
Hearing this, Tsuchima Mai immediately cast a resentful look at Yushan Kazuto. Yushan Kazuto had turned off Tsuchima Mai's voice ability. Although she had no interest in chatting with others, she felt very uncomfortable with the feeling of being controlled by Yushan Kazuto.
"Umaru-chan, you should go to bed early." Yuuki Asuna also said.
"Well, you didn't sleep well last night, so you should log off early."
Doma opened his mouth, but of course he couldn't argue with Yushan Kazuto and Yuuki Asuna, so he nodded somewhat aggrievedly.
Yushan Kazuto then smiled and said, "You, Komari, will pick up the items dropped by the Radiance Eater. See if you can get some equipment for me. I feel like my output is a bit weak."
Tsuchima Yui looked at the battle intelligence and found that Kazuto Yuyama accounted for 89% of the team's output. Is this called weak output?
Looking at myself again, it's only 4%, while Yuuki Asuna's is 7%. Normally, Doma Yui's output is slightly higher than Yuuki Asuna's, but today it's more than half less than hers!
Tsuchiya blushed a little.
[It's all my fault, the scumbag senior, for interfering with me before the fight started! ]
After glaring at Yushan Kazuto hatefully, Doma Mai walked to the ball of light and picked up the prop.
Although the first kill of the Glorious Eater produced a huge explosion, with dozens of treasures dropped, not many of them were of great use. After all, the equipment used by Yushan and the other two were always the best.
I opened the packages one by one like opening a blind box, and I didn't expect that there would be a real one.
Equipment used.
Coincidentally, the new equipment released this time is also a key, which is very similar to the key that was dropped by the Demon Ape before. After all, the Demon Ape is a subordinate of the Light Eater, or a member of the same race, so it is normal that the ring is from the same series.
"Did anything good come out?" Yushan and others came over and asked.
"A ring appeared that you can use." Doma said with a pout.
"Eh, it can't be a pair with the previous Demon Ape Ring." Yushan Heren blinked and said.
"It looks very similar, but this one is called the Ring of Gluttony." Domama said, holding the ring.
"Let me see." Yushan Heren blinked. He didn't expect that Tsuchiya was such a good player! Yushan Heren had played ten light groups, but he couldn't get a piece of equipment that he could use. Tsuchiya actually got one in one group.
Moreover, it is an extremely rare piece of jewelry, and just by hearing the name you can tell that it has extraordinary properties.
Domama glanced at Yushan Kazuto, walked up, and helped Yushan Kazuto put the ring on him.
Yushan Heren blinked, but didn't notice where she wore the ring. His eyes were attracted by the properties of the ring.
"Combos increase damage by a percentage? Up to 100%!"
One hundred combos can deal an extra 100% damage. You should know that when Yushan and others fight the boss, his combo will not be interrupted unless the boss enters a new stage of dominance.
In other words, this ring doubled his output.
"Mamoru-chan, you really are my lucky star!"
Tsuchiya's face, which had calmed down a little, suddenly turned red again.
[What nonsense is this scumbag senior talking about! ]
Chapter 521: The Knights' Sights
Walking on the streets of Guildenstern, a drizzle began to fall from the sky again.
The tiny raindrops hit my body, and for a moment, I suddenly had an illusion that fantasy and reality were intertwined.
Yushan Kazuto raised his head, ready to take a good look at the sky in Guildenstern in the rain, but he saw a purple sky instead.
Turning my head, I saw Yuuki Asuna had already opened an umbrella to block out the heavy wind and rain.
"Asuna, where did you get the umbrella?" asked Yushan Kazuto with a smile.
"It was just exploded by the Light Eater." said Yuuki Asuna.
"Something like this actually dropped." Yushan Kazuto blinked. He didn't expect that a boss would drop such a completely entertaining prop.
In SAO, there will be no negative buffs if you get caught in the rain. Although this umbrella can protect you from wind and rain, from a practical point of view, it can only be used as an entertainment prop or a decorative prop.
"Senior Kazuto, don't you think this is a good idea?" Yuuki Asuna said with a smile.
The dangerous world is very dangerous, but under the umbrella, this dangerous world seems to have a more peaceful feeling, which is quite comfortable.
Yushan Kazuto nodded, but still smiled and said, "But now, this umbrella blocks my view of the sky."
Asuna Yuuki pressed on the umbrella, and the whole umbrella suddenly became transparent. Only the handle in Asuna Yuuki's hand proved the existence of the umbrella.
Although the umbrella surface is transparent, the umbrella still has the function of shielding from rain. It can block rain while not affecting the appreciation of the scenery. The design is quite unique.
"Hey, this umbrella is quite interesting." Yushan Kazuto said with a smile.
Yuuki Asuna nodded slightly. After all, it was equipment dropped by the boss. Although it didn't have many uses, just based on this function, it was considered a fine piece of equipment.
"It's a pity that the Light Eater didn't drop any equipment that you can use, Asuna." Yushan Kazuto said.
Although Yuuki Asuna's equipment is slightly better than that of Haneyama Kazuto, she still feels like a beggar compared to that of Tsuchima Yui.
Now Yuyama Kazuto has obtained a powerful ring, and Doma Yui has been strengthened again. The only one who has not got new equipment is Yuuki Asuna.
"It doesn't matter, there will definitely be one in the future." Yuuki Asuna didn't care at all, she didn't have much desire to compete for these things.
"Well, I hope the next few bosses can drop an equipment you can use." Yushan Heren nodded and said.
……
As the two chatted, they had already arrived at the headquarters of the Blood Alliance Knights.
The player who was in charge of guarding the gate was still the same one from last time. When he saw Yushan Kazuto and Yuuki Asuna, he remembered them and welcomed them in without asking any questions.
Because they did not have the authority to bring people into the core area, Yushan Kazuto and Yuuki Asuna could only sit in the hall and wait. Yushan Kazuto observed the flow of people from the Blood Alliance Knights with flickering eyes.
"What are you looking at?" asked Yuuki Asuna.
With outsiders present, the two naturally wouldn't address each other by name.
"Asuna, haven't you noticed that there seems to be a lot of traffic in the Blood Alliance Knights?" Yushan Heren said.
As the credibility of the Dragon Knights and the Aincrad Liberation Group declined, and the Rose Knights no longer intervened in the disputes, the Blood Knights gradually absorbed talents from all parties and grew into the largest force in Aincrad.
But the Blood Alliance Knights implement an elitist policy, not this kind of eclectic strategy!
Judging from the people moving back and forth, they could not meet the requirements of the Blood Alliance Knights, let alone the original requirements of the Dragon Knights.
Only a force like the Aincrad Liberation Group, which accepts everyone, would accept them.
And now, these people have actually joined the Blood Alliance Knights?
……
"I'm sorry, the three captains of the Rose Knights, I've kept you waiting for so long." Kirito walked in from the back door, but was surprised to see only Kazuto Yuyama and Asuna Yuuki.
"No, sorry, captains, I thought captain VNS came with us too." Kirito said hurriedly.
Yushan and the other two always act together. Without seeing the number of people, Kirito said that there were three leaders, which actually didn't seem to be a big problem.
"It's okay." Yuuki Asuna shook her head.
"I wonder, Captain VNS? I don't think you've encountered any emergencies, right?" Kirito asked cautiously.
Yushan Heren looked at him, and he actually thought that Doma was dead!
To be honest, it's normal for Kirito to have such a guess, but now that we've reached the 80th floor, who doesn't have a few items for resurrection?
Although the props for resurrection can only be used within ten seconds after the player's death, such things are usually carried with people and used automatically.
Although Yushan Kazuto felt that nothing could threaten him, he still brought two resurrection items for self-defense just in case.
Tujianmei brought even more, four in total.
Kirito's suspicion was a little too naive.
Even so, Yushan Heren did not complain, but just said: "VNS felt a little tired, so he did not come with us."
"That's good... I heard from Captain Heathcliff that the boss on the 87th floor is very difficult, but I... I won't say anything, I won't say anything, so I worried for nothing." Kirito smiled naively.
However, Yushan Kazuto noticed something strange.
Heathcliff
It's strange that he knows the situation of the boss on the 87th floor. 】
Yushan and the other two wandered around the 87th floor for several days before they barely discovered the abnormality on the 87th floor on a rainy day. How did Heathcliff know about the situation of the boss on the 87th floor?
However, Yushan Heren did not reveal his doubts, but just said: "Thank you for your concern. I was lucky enough to pass today. VNS exerted a lot of effort and I am a little tired."
Yushan Kazuto was lying with his eyes open. When it came to conquering the Shining Eater, Yui Doma was a complete drag, but he said that Yui Doma contributed a lot.
However, Kirito did not doubt it at all and said with a smile: "Congratulations to the three of you for taking another victory. At this rate, I'm afraid we will be able to leave this damned world soon."
"The bosses behind are getting more and more difficult, it will still take some time." Yushan Heren said.

"It doesn't matter, as long as there is hope." Kirito said.
A guard ran in and whispered something in Kirito's ear, and he immediately stood up: "Sorry, both of you, one of our teams encountered an elite monster in the wild, and I have to rush to rescue them."
Kazuto Yuyama and Asuna Yuuki nodded. In the current situation, although there is no infighting among players, some unexpected situations will occasionally lead to the death of players.
For example, if you encounter an elite monster in the wild, although the probability of death is very small, it still exists.
"You two are here for the key to the Black Iron Palace. The key is here. I'll be leaving now."
Kirito placed the key to the Black Iron Palace on the table and hurried out.
