[Combat Experience +1650]
【Ke Er+167】
[Weapon·One-handed sword proficiency +13]
"Amazing!"
Yiji couldn't help but praise her.
But Kiriko was too embarrassed to accept it. She was only able to make the finishing blow by relying on the damage multiplier of her skills. On the other hand, Yiji relied on her pure combat awareness to deal with the Yellow-striped Queen Bee.
"Hey, Mr. Tongzi, look, it looks like something has fallen there."
Yiji pointed at the place where the yellow-striped queen bee died and shouted.
I saw a one-handed sword glowing green, inserted in the open space in front.
-
[Wind Sword (Excellent)]
[Equipment conditions: One-handed sword proficiency level·cultivation]
【Sharp Ⅰ】
[Force of the Wind I]
-
Equipment, in Aincrad, occupies a huge space for improving capabilities.
There are six grades in total: Common, Excellent, Rare, Epic, Legendary, and Mythic. There are also five levels that are closely linked to passive skills related to armor, such as "Powerful Light Armor Specialization" and "Cloth Armor Mastery", based on the weapon proficiency level.
In the game framework of Aincrad, equipment does not provide constant values, but rather uses attribute bonuses.
For example, the [Sharpness I] of the Wind Sword increases the basic attack by 10%, and the [Force of Wind I] increases the basic speed by 10%.
Therefore, there will not be a phenomenon where a novice with a set of magical equipment will mindlessly beat the veteran.
The number of entries is related to the grade. Ordinary-level equipment has only one entry, excellent-level equipment has 2~3, rare equipment has 3~4, and so on, up to the mythical level, which has seven entries.
The entry level is related to the equipment level. For weapons that can be used at the cultivation level of weapon proficiency, the entry level is only one or two at most.
If it is a high-level weapon, the attribute level can reach two or three.
Tongzi weighed the Gale Sword in his hand and seemed particularly satisfied with it. With such a high-quality sword, he would be able to kill monsters and level up more efficiently in the coming days.
"Oh~ I almost forgot, that poisonous queen bee exploded a pair of boxing gloves, here you go."
Kiriko handed the emerald green gloves to Kazuhime.
“Is this really okay for me?”
Yiji took the emerald green boxing gloves, which had poisonous damage and impact, or knockback effect, which felt super powerful.
"Of course, we are a team after all, so the distribution of equipment must be fair. Besides, I can't use boxing gloves. Just now, I saw you fighting so smoothly and fighting back so neatly. Could it be that you have also learned martial arts in real life?"
Tongzi asked curiously.
"It's not as good as you say. I just know a little bit, that's all."
Ichiki's answer was very modest.
Kirito recognized Ichihime's strength, so she decided to team up with him and kill monsters in the area together.
Two people are always safer than one, and especially their efficiency will be improved. Although the combat experience gained will inevitably be discounted, it is still 55%.
There will be a slight bonus of 5% when forming a team. A team of two will get this 50% added when the share is evenly divided at 5%, a team of three will get this bonus when the share is evenly divided at 33%, and so on up to a team of ten people, when an additional 10% is added when the share is evenly divided at 5%, which is a total of 15%.
Although it’s not much, it’s better than nothing. It seems that the official also encourages players to travel together.
However, weapon proficiency is only obtained by the final killer.
"My combat experience is finally positive!"
Yiji stared at the panel at the bottom of the game interface, and then expanded the skill list.
I immediately learned the "Strong Punch".
[Powerful Punch (LV: 1): Causes 135% of the attack damage, and stuns the target for 1 second. ]
With this skill, it became extremely smooth for Kiriko and Kazuhime to kill monsters.
First pull the monster, then stiffen it, and finally use "Angry Stab". If it is not dead, punch and kick it again.
It took a full three hours, and on average they could kill a bee monster every five minutes. Looking at the nearly three thousand extra combat experience points at the bottom of the interface, both Kiriko and Kazuhime felt very satisfied.
Although these combat experiences are not as much as the sum of those two elite queen bees, this is the normal standard for monster hunting in the early stage of the game.
[Iron Bones (Level 10): Increases defense by %. ]
[Weakness Sense (Level 1): Sense the weaknesses of low-level enemies within a certain range.]
[Super Armor (Level 10): Puts the player into a super armor state, increases defense by 10% and spirit by 5%, and reduces movement speed by %.]
[Light Metal Equipment Mastery (Level 1): Can equip level 1 light armor.]
With a relatively sufficient economy, Kiriko and Kazuhime also learned a lot of practical skills to enhance their endurance and combat capabilities.
The sky gradually turned dark. The time inside Aincrad was synchronized with reality, so even the changes of dawn and dusk were consistent.
Kiriko and Ichihime also added each other as friends. Although they still wanted to continue killing monsters, but...
"Sorry, my sister called me to eat, Mr. Kiriko, let's continue tomorrow."
Ichiki said apologetically.
"It's okay, I have a similar situation here."
Kiriko waved her hand and watched Yiji go offline first, then she crossed out the list and logged out of the game.
……
In the real world, Yuki family.
Yuuki Asuna stood in front of her brother's bedroom door, knocked several times, and greeted, "Brother, it's time for dinner."
"Wait a minute, I'm coming."
Hearing a noise in the room, Koichiro Yuki hurriedly opened the door.
"…Are you busy with the company's business again?"
Asuna Yuuki noticed that her brother Yuuki Koichiro had messy hair and a machine in the room. Although she didn't understand much, she could see that he was also very tired.
Yuuki Asuna respects her brother very much. Although her mother has always told her that she is inferior to her brother in every way, she has never held a grudge against him.
Her elder brother was always the top student from elementary school to high school, unlike her who was always the second child. He was free and easy and very reliable. But most importantly, every time after being scolded by her mother, she would rush to comfort him and chat with him about his past.
Yuuki Asuna knows a lot about her brother, for example, he once participated in a karate competition but ended up only getting fourth place in the county and didn't even get the third place trophy.
Although, in the eyes of Yuuki Asuna, this is already very powerful.
……
Aincrad, outdoor area.
Dressed in black, even the wide cloak could not conceal her proud figure. In Tamamonomae's hand, she held a short sword glowing with blue light, which she had obtained by hunting elite monsters and bandit leaders.
-
[Hunting Sword (Rare)]
[Equipment conditions: Short sword proficiency level·cultivation]
【Sharp Ⅰ】
【Puncture Ⅱ】
[Bleeding I]
【Primate Killer Ⅱ】
-
Even though most of his power was sealed by Yuzhongjin and he could only project his physical world, and his basic attributes were no different from those of ordinary humans, Tamamonomae still managed to take down the elite bandit leader with his excellent combat skills. After all, he was still a being with the concept of "human", so [Killing Skills (Human)] still maintained its effect.
Although the elite monster was marked as four-star, it took several hours for Tamamonomae to kill the target without any damage.
And thus get this nice equipment in your hand.
Sharpness increases attack, piercing increases penetration effect, bleeding is needless to say, and the last primate killer, as the name suggests, is a special attack against humans.
As night fell, Tamamonomae looked towards the mountains in the distance and couldn't help but smile eerily. Now was the time to hunt!
Even without the weapon in her hand, Tamamonomae can still kill human players alone, but what she pursues is not the killing, but the surprised look on the target's face before death.
This is the true meaning of an assassin, taking the life of the enemy silently and leaving the opponent with only a look of disbelief before his death.
Thinking of this, Tamamonomae couldn't help but get excited. She couldn't help licking her lips. Her sweet tongue flashed across her lips. She turned the dagger in her hand and activated the "Gallop" skill.
It was like a breeze passing by, without any sound, but it was more deadly than a kamaitachi. Blood splattered in the moonlight, and Tamamonomae killed the target in the throat with one sword on the spot.
Lowering his head, the player struggled desperately, but his health bar had already fallen to the bottom, his body shattered, turned into nothingness of data, and finally transmitted back to the starting city.
Tamamonomae stood there, complaining: "Why is there no reward for killing people? Humans are just a group of beasts. Is there any difference between killing them and killing wild monsters?"
[Combat Experience +300]
[Weapon·Dagger Proficiency +3]
After Tamamonomae finished complaining, a new column of information suddenly appeared in the game interface. It was obvious that Kayaba Akihiko loaded the patch immediately after hearing the feedback.
"That's pretty much it."
Seeing this, Tamamonomae nodded in satisfaction and continued hunting, completely ignoring the fact that the nickname above his head had already turned bright red.
Overnight, dozens of people were assassinated in the mountains. The incident was immediately reported on the game's official website and caused a sensation. However, the official response from Kayaba Akihiko was only one point: in this game, everything is allowed.
Whether it's finding bugs or cheating, everything is officially approved.
The prerequisite is that those hackers can break into his database. Even so, there is Yuzhuanjin's protection behind it.
SAO is the product of the combination of modern emerging technology and ancient mysteries.
If you can't understand that layer of mystery, no matter how advanced the technology is, it will be of no use.
With this official response, players are hard to say. After all, open outdoor PK in the game has always been a hot topic, and making random changes would lead to a loss of freedom.
But that assassin was really abominable, especially his damage was off the charts. Once hit in the vitals, you would be killed instantly.
The speed is even faster, coming and going without a trace.
The person being killed didn't even see the opponent's ID.
In desperation, players had to travel in teams, forming teams of at least three people just in case.
There is no need to say much about the monster-killing efficiency of team mode. Although the combat experience will be split, the amount obtained is much greater than that of acting alone, which greatly increases the player's growth rate and cooperates to form a more sophisticated team combat capability.
……
"For human development, necessary evils cannot be abandoned. Maybe it's war or natural disasters. They are not aimed at a certain person, but at the entire group called 'human beings'."
When Kayaba Akihiko asked Tamamonomae whether his actions would be tolerated by Ootenzu, the latter said: "Just wait and see. I made humans united, so they developed and progressed faster. Without me, this group of people would be vulnerable. Now they have the strength to fight against me. Now I can be war or natural disasters."
This fox has deep evil in his bones, even outside the game.
Kayaba Akihiko saw it clearly. Although the other party might not have any ill will towards humans, his personality was not what humans liked.
"A necessary evil..."
Kayaba Akihiko certainly knew the meaning of this word.
Even though there is no hope, something has to be done due to the needs of organizational operations or social life.
But is evil like Tamamonomae's really necessary?
Although the process has indeed moved forward in terms of results, even if it has not, human civilization will continue to develop, and it is only a matter of time before that result is reached.
Rather than being a necessary evil, it feels more like a necessary evil.
