Two Hundred and Ninety-Three <Magician>
Floating City, Aincrad.
In this imaginary fortress suspended in the sky and composed of one hundred floors, there are also four seasons of the year.
However, the four seasons of Aincrad are fundamentally different from the real world.
Because, the seasons of the year in Aincrad have nothing to do with the climate, but only with the environment where the floor is located.
In Aincrad, there are scorching hot areas with high temperatures, snowy areas with low temperatures, uncertain areas with year-round changes, and normal temperature areas with a very comfortable climate.
Of course, in addition to the temperature, there are other climate parameters in Aincrad as well.
Like the wind.
Like rain.
Such as humidity.
Like dust.
There are even climatic parameters similar to natural backgrounds such as swarms of bugs, allowing players to experience a variety of different environments in this world.
Among these environments, some are quite harsh or even dangerous environments for players, while some are quite pleasing to the eye, which is quite eye-catching.
Level 24 of Aincrad is one such place.
It was a lake-floor floor that was mostly covered by water.
The main block of the floor is a town called "Panareze".
It was an artificial island built in the middle of a huge lake.
Around the artificial island, there are strips of slender pontoon bridges stretching out in all directions.
These pontoon bridges connect countless small islands around Panareze. If you go a little north, there is a sightseeing spot with a huge tree, which is quite popular among players.
Of course, these small islands are not in the circle, and some places are even practice areas full of monsters, and only players with a level of 30 or above can break into it, otherwise, it will be more dangerous.
Fortunately, up to now, there are not no players with a level above 30.
even,
There are also players with a level above 40 who are now reclaiming wasteland on higher floors.
These players are the top players in the entire sao, each of them belongs to the famous big guild, as a member of the frontline strategy team, they are struggling to fight against the powerful monsters.
For ordinary players, the members of these strategy groups are unreachable existences, and they are the hope of being able to take themselves out of this world.
Therefore, there are many players who yearn for the clearing group, but there are also many players who fear, fear, and even loathe the clearing group.
After all, ability does not represent character.
In the strategy group, there are some guilds and players with very bad reviews, which make ordinary players fear, fear and loathe.
And among these guilds, there is a guild with mixed reviews.
The members of this guild are a group of beta testers.
Some of them were players who abandoned all the players at the beginning of the game and only cared about becoming stronger, and finally gained full strength.
Some of them hid their identities, mixed in with the general players, and finally revealed their identities for various reasons and joined the guild players.
The reason why players have mixed reviews on this guild is mainly due to two aspects.
The praise is because this guild is currently the strongest guild in SAO. Even though there are only dozens of internal members, each of them is a former beta tester. Naturally, it cannot be so weak. It is at the forefront He is also recognized as the most active member, and must stand at the forefront of every battle against the defensive boss. The guild leader is even considered to be the best commander in SAO, and he is always regarded as the most outstanding commander in every battle against the defensive boss. Recommended as a leader, responsible for directing all players to attack the boss. So far, there has never been a defeat. It is claimed that as long as he is present, the defending boss will be defeated, or even pass the level without loss.
The derogatory aspect is naturally because of the status of "beta tester", so far, it is still considered by some people as a group of selfish guys, which makes people unable to get a good impression.
However, compared to the situation in the past when everyone shouted and beat beta testers, the reputation and treatment of the current beta testers is undoubtedly much better.
At least, the beta testers did stand up and continue to participate in the strategy at the forefront in order to liberate all the players. From time to time, they will distribute the latest information to the players on the lower floors, so that the players can know the distribution of monsters on each floor , dangerous areas, and the locations of mission npcs, gradually cultivated a group of middle-level players who bravely walked out of the town, took up arms, and continued to fight.
In view of this, although this guild is not yet supported by everyone, it has also eliminated many players' bad feelings and impressions of beta testers.
There are people who yearn for them.
There are people who hate them.
And there are people who look at them very objectively.
This is already a considerable improvement compared to before.
Players all know that it is a person who caused this situation.
During the most difficult period for the beta testers, he kept standing up, and with a lazy and careless attitude, he saw through, kicked away and even retaliated against everyone's malice, calculations, and schemes, and finally allowed the beta testers guild to A foothold and a figure who has been recognized by most people.
What is his name, to be honest, many people don't know.
Players only know that this person has always carried a beautiful swallowtail butterfly as his familiar. Although he is the commander of the strategy team, his own strength should not be underestimated. Not only does he have amazing sword skills, but his familiar You can also use a variety of special skills, especially the debuff skills that can bring negative states. It is said that even the defensive boss with the strongest resistance is hard to escape, and is often controlled.
For the convenience of calling each other, the good people have given each other various nicknames.
For example,
However, there is still only one nickname that people use most often.
———
"Magic" is the familiar demon.
"Shi" is the division of the division.
Not only leading the familiar, but also leading the division, the player who fights at the forefront.
That is the
At this moment, this legendary figure is on the 24th floor of Aincrad.
Because the current base of the guild he leads—
"jingle!"
A rather pleasant bell sounded.
It was the sound of a bar door being pushed open.
While yawning, Luo Zhen walked into the bar as if he had just woken up.
But in this bar, there are already players one by one.
"President!"
"President!"
"Good morning! President!"
Players raised their hands to greet Luo Zhen one by one.
"Good morning."
Luo Zhen responded listlessly.
"Woo..."
The Rainbow Butterfly standing on his shoulder also looked sleepy.
Take a closer look, including Luo Zhen, there is a coat of arms on the upper left of the hp gauges of all the players present.
That is the guild crest.
Once you join a guild, the coat of arms belonging to that guild will appear at the upper left of the hp gauge.
And the guild crest of
All the players here are members of the
They are also the top players who have all reached level 40 or above.
As for Luo Zhen, his level is above all others.
——— "48".
This is Rozen's current level.
