Xie Chen stood in the room, walked around to observe for a while, then stood by the window, turned his back to Xie Chen and Xing, and said, "Is this where the incident happened just now?"

Kirito nodded: "Yes, it's here."

"Yes, at that window just now, Yuerke was shot with a dagger just like that, and then died!" The man sitting beside him with his head in his hands said in a trembling voice.

Xie Chen narrowed his eyes slightly, and he had already thought of this incident and the identity of this man, Schmidt, the person involved in the murder in the circle.And the time has already developed to the second murder in the circle, which just happened to happen to him, and Asuna in the original plot was replaced by Xing.

"It seems that no matter what happens, the things in the original plot will always happen." Xie Chen said in a low voice.Because the voice was low and the back was facing them, no one noticed.

He turned around and said to Kirito: "This incident is very interesting. It is still possible to kill people in the circle twice in a row, so there must be logic in the game system. If this matter is not completely If the investigation is clear, maybe similar things will happen in the future, and when the originally absolutely safe area becomes no longer safe, there should be chaos here."

Xie Chen's words stirred up layers of waves in Tongren Hexing's heart. They only thought of catching this person, but they hadn't thought of the consequences of this matter for the time being. The two of them looked at each other, and the worry in their eyes was even more serious. up.Xing couldn't help asking: "Then, what should we do now? If we can't catch that person..."

Kirito's complexion became even worse.At this time, Schmidt, who was squatting on the side, suddenly shouted: "This is a ghost! It must be Grinther Rutan's ghost! She came to seek revenge on us!"

The other three people in the room heard his words, their eyes crossed, and they didn't speak.

Xie Chen and Tong Ren were lucky enough to be walking back to the headquarters. Xie Chen said slowly, "Actually, there is something I want to tell you."

Kirito asked in confusion: "What are you talking about?"

Xie Chen raised his mouth slightly, and said, "Actually, what our eyes see may not be true. You think you see it, but you don't actually see it. Eyes can be deceiving."

"What do you mean by this?" Tongren frowned, he didn't understand Xie Chen's words.Xing stood aside with a dazed look on his face.

Xie Chen smiled and said: "It's just my thoughts. This incident is too weird, so I have to wonder if it's true. After all, I didn't see the scene where the incident happened. That's fine. That's all for now, I have to leave beforehand."

After Xie Chen left, Xing frowned and asked Tongren: "Tiren, do you understand what the leader's words mean?"

Kirito shook his head: "I don't understand yet, but how did the group say this sentence, it must have some meaning to say it, so we must understand it."

Kirito and Xing walked forward slowly, chatting while walking, trying to find some clues in the whole incident.As we talked, we talked about weapons.

Xing said with some distress: "Because of this matter, I didn't have time to repair the equipment after hunting, so I'll send it there on the way now. I don't know if the durability drops too much, it will be troublesome."

Wait, durability?A flash of light seemed to flash through Kirito's mind suddenly, and then he stood still, and various thoughts appeared quickly.

Xing Xing saw Xie Chen standing still, still lowered his head and couldn't see the expression on his face clearly, so he couldn't help stretching out his hand and shaking it in front of his eyes, and then asked together: "What's the matter, Tongren? Why did you suddenly stop?" Are you here?" Kirito stretched out a hand to signal Xing not to speak, and after a while, he suddenly laughed, muttering something in his mouth: "That's it, that's it, so the truth of your matter is like this! "

The suddenly louder voice startled Xing, and she couldn't help asking Kirito: "Kirito, what happened to you? You suddenly looked like this."

This time, Kirito raised his head and said to her with a smile on his face: "I know the truth of the matter."

"What? You know?" Xing asked in surprise, "How did you know? What is the truth?"

Facing Xing's questioning, Kirito began to explain: "The words of the leader just now have reminded us that what our eyes see may not be real, that is to say, even if we see Kainz and Yuerke's Death, they are not necessarily really dead, those bursting light spots are only produced after the durability of the equipment disappears. Whether it is Kainz or Urk, their deaths are all done in this way. When the durability disappeared, they moved to other places by transferring the crystal, so that they could create the illusion of death. In this case, the man in black robe just now should be Kainz."

"What?" Xing was surprised, and after thinking for a while, he couldn't help but nodded slowly, "In this way, it can indeed cause such an effect that is infinitely close to death, and they did it because of Grimlock and Grintherloo Let's talk, let's use this method to find the real culprit of this matter..."

Kirito nodded: "Yes, that's it. It seems that they have already planned it, and the two of us seem to be regarded as part of the plan."

Xing smiled and said: "It's nothing, Miss Yuerke is not a bad person, she just wants to avenge Miss Grinthero and Mr Grimlock, that's all, I can rest assured , it’s great that the things we’re worried about won’t happen.”

Kirito stood there, stretched his waist and said, "Yeah, that's great." After standing still, he scratched his hair and said, "Thanks to the reminder from the leader this time, we The two have been investigating for so long and haven't seen as many things as the leader in a while, it's really too weak."

Fortunately, he didn't care, and said with a smile: "It's not that you don't know the keenness of observation of the leader, so you don't need to be emotional."

Kirito shrugged: "You're right."

"Lucky, don't you have a friend of Jiayurke? Take a look." Kirito said.

"Huh? Oh, yes, I'll take a look." Xing reached out to open the game interface, and then found Yurk's name, "Sure enough, it's still there. Now it's on the outskirts of the [-]th-floor Crosshill, quite a distance from the main town. Far away, do you want to go there now?"

Tongren shook his head and said: "No need, our task for this matter has been completed, and the next thing is left to them." Xie Chen paused, pointing to the front, "Now we should What we need to do is to take good care of the equipment.”

After coming out of the casting room, Tongren Hexing walked towards his home, and then met Xie Chen at the door, Tongren walked over quickly and said: "Head, the previous killing in the circle The incident has come to an end."

Xie Chen frowned, so fast?Even if he gave a reminder, he didn't expect to find out the truth of the matter after a while, but he didn't know what inspired him this time.

"There is a result? It's so fast, hurry up and talk about it." Xie Chen asked eagerly.

Kirito talked about the methods they used in this matter, and then talked about Yuerke's current location, so it is true that the person is not dead. As for the method of killing people in the circle, it is just an illusion.

Xie Chen actually knew the whole story of this matter well, but after listening to Tongren finished speaking, he nodded, stroked his chin and said, "So that's the case." Then, Xie Chen thought of something, if he faked his death, Maybe he can do it too.

"Yes, it seems that what we were worried about before will not happen." Kirito said with a smile.

"That's the best." Xie Chen also smiled, "It seems that I don't have to worry about being killed while I'm sleeping."

"How come? With your strength, no one can hurt you even if you fall asleep." Kirito replied with a smile.

Xie Chen was just joking, seeing that it was all right, he waved his hand and said, "Since the matter is settled, then I don't worry anymore. I'm going to the labyrinth area now, shall we go together?"

Kirito looked at Xing, and said: "I won't go for now, our equipment is still undergoing maintenance, and we will go to the labyrinth area after it is repaired."

"That's it." Xie Chen said, it seems that he was inspired by the durability because he went to repair the equipment.

Xing stood aside and didn't say a word. Her strength was not good enough to go to the front line, so Kirito seldom went to the front line because of her in the past few days. Instead, she took her to upgrade in other places.

After Tongren and Xing left, Xie Chen remembered that there seemed to be a follow-up to this matter, but he hadn't thought of it before.Xie Chen rubbed his chin, and finally decided to forget it. In short, this matter has nothing to do with him. If the inertia of the original plot is really so great, I think Tongren will still go.

After making a decision, Xie Chen put the matter aside, and now he is going to the front line again, and is summoned by Tia Bell to speed up the progress of the attack.And he also wanted to find a place to test his "fake death" skills. After all, he was a person with the talent of "shining fruit".

On the other side, Kirito still sensed something was wrong, and rode quickly to the Hill of Crosses, just in time for Golden Ringo and the others to be threatened by the smiling coffin of the Red Name Guild.

After the person smiling at the coffin left, Kirito stood there and analyzed the whole thing, and finally found out the real culprit of the whole thing, Grimlock.

Eventually, the whole thing ended with Grimlock being taken away by other members of the same guild.Then things continued, and after a while, Kirito and Yuki got married. Because they were members of the same guild, they held a party, which was considered a wedding.

This incident caused quite a stir in the Demon Knights. After the wedding, Xie Chen looked at Asuna while eating and said, "Asuna, have you ever thought about... getting married?" Woolen cloth?"

Asuna stopped holding the chopsticks, looked at Xie Chen, and said, "What?"

"Asuna, let me tell you, let's get married." Xie Chen looked at Asuna with a smile, feeling a little embarrassed in his heart. The two of them have gotten used to it for such a long time, so they forgot that there is still a time to get married. thing.

Asuna opened her mouth, and her face gradually turned red. After a while, she nodded slowly and said, "Well, good."

So it didn't take long for everyone to witness a wedding again. Because it was in the game and Asuna's request was added, the wedding this time was still very simple, but the scene was not simple at all.

Then after a long time, Asuna remembered that day and would miss it, and at the same time complained about Xie Chen, who would propose marriage with chopsticks while eating?And she actually agreed to it.

This is what happened in the future. The current situation is that Asuna is looking at Xie Chen. No, it should be the things in their common inventory that are in a daze.

"These are all yours?" Asuna looked at Xie Chen and asked.

Xie Chen nodded: "Yes, otherwise, why would it be in my inventory."

Asuna opened her mouth and continued to look through. There were a lot of various materials, various equipment and weapons, and all kinds of messy little things. It could be seen that Xie Chen hadn't cleaned them up for a long time.Asuna asked with some headaches: "Have you not organized your inventory for a long time?"

Xie Chen nodded: "It seems to be, what's wrong?"

Asuna rubbed her forehead, sure enough.She looked at the dazzling array of things in front of her and sighed, and the appointed person began to tidy up, saying, "It's because you haven't tidied up that you don't even know what you own. Where did you get so many materials?" Huh? There are these equipments. Didn’t Tiabel look for them before? If I knew you had them here, I wouldn’t need to spend a lot of money to buy them. There are these too.”

              

-------------Chapter Dividing Line---------------

Xie Chen blinked, and finally recalled the situation at that time.Tia Bell's set of equipment was only one belt away, but he couldn't find it all the time, and he didn't have enough time, so he bought one directly, which seemed to cost a lot of money.

Xie Chen looked at the belt lying in his inventory, touched his chin, and said, "Isn't that, I didn't expect that." Later, he forgot to take another look at what it was, so he didn't know exactly what was in his inventory until now.

Asuna shook her head helplessly, sorted them out one by one, sorted them into categories, and separated them according to their uses.You can get it from the guild, you can sell it if it’s useless, you need to put away precious materials, all kinds of small things, and so on. Then Asuna saw a strange thing, it was a red delicate Xiao Jian couldn't help asking Xie Chen in doubt: "What is this?"

Xie Chen saw the sword, took it over and said, "This is a quest item. I got it a long time ago, but there has been no progress."

"What is the mission?" Asuna was a little curious, so she asked.She saw the words "sealed" written on it, and she had never seen such a thing before, so she asked, if it wasn't for Xie Chen, she wouldn't have asked directly like this.

Xie Chen thought for a while and said, "It's a somewhat special task, do you know about the inheritance task?"

Asuna shook her head: "Inheritance mission? I haven't heard of it."

"That task was opened after getting this, but it has not been completed until now. And this one in my hand, it's the same." Xie Chen said, stretching his wrist over, the twilight inside flashed, and Ya Sina reached out and pulled it out, it was a meniscus pendant.This pendant is very familiar to Asuna, because Xie Chen has been wearing it and never took it off. At first, he thought it was some kind of jewelry, so he didn't ask. Later, when the level was rising, it was a bit strange to see him still wearing it, but at that time After I forgot, I never remembered it.Only now did I realize that it was not an accessory but a mission item.

"Then how is your mission going?" Asuna blinked and asked Xie Chen.

Xie Chen touched his chin: "I just had a clue, but recently there has been no progress, and there is no task reminder or anything. I am really frustrated."

Seeing this, Asuna patted Xie Chen's hand and comforted, "Take your time, it's been so long, there will always be clues."

Xie Chen nodded: "So now my attitude towards it is just resigned." After speaking, he smiled helplessly.

Asuna shrugged and continued to organize things. There was nothing she could do about this kind of thing.

However, what Xie Chen didn't expect was that his missions would soon progress, and then a series of missions sat down and he didn't even care about the strategy.

One month later, it will be December 2023, 12, which is close to Christmas.

Xie Chen returned to the headquarters with his people. They had just finished the raid on the [-]rd floor guard boss.And the biggest news this time was that Kirito fell down during the raid.So much so that when he came back, he left alone without being with the army.

Within two hours after the raid ended, the headline-grabbing news spread throughout Aincrad with additional newspapers.

Xie Chen sat down on the sofa a little tiredly, then lay down beside him, and said, "Tiabel, this strategy battle is really difficult."

Tia Bellu's expression was not good either. He rubbed his head and replied: "It is said that the boss this time is really troublesome. Thinking about it makes me feel bad, not to mention that there are still some people who always want to do it. What a point, this battle is really tiring."

"However, with Kirito-kun's performance, I feel unexpectedly much better." Asuna said with a smile.Xie Chen and Tiabellu couldn't help laughing when they thought of the scene where Kirito fell down. Anyway, the person involved would not be here again, so they just laughed out loud.

"Hahaha, speaking of this, it's really too funny. How can Kirito fall at any time? It's so ridiculous, hahaha." Tia Bellu said with a happy smile.

Xie Chen's expression was also very relaxed, with a smile on his face, he said slowly: "Tirto is also trying to stop that person's petty movements. Although this method is a bit embarrassing, it is still a good method, and it will not cause that person's troubles at all. precautions, don’t you think?”

"You're right, it's really wonderful, I must tell Kirito next time I see him." Tia Bell received excitedly.

Asuna just sat on the side, watching the two of them talking, and said after a while: "Okay, don't patronize Xiaotongren-kun, first summarize today's battle, and then Just go and rest now."

Tia Belle nodded: "That's right, I'm really tired today, so hurry up and go to rest after talking."

"Then let's start." Xie Chen responded, holding back his smile a little.

"We are all in today's battle, so I won't introduce the specifics of the battle, let's just talk about it," Asuna said directly, and then took out a piece of paper and a pen to write and draw on it, "From From today's battle card, it can be seen that with the increase of the level, the combat power of the boss is getting stronger and stronger in all aspects. We have all experienced this, and then in today's battle, Heathcliff started to move again. And it's becoming more and more obvious, presumably it won't be long before it will officially start."

Xie Chen nodded: "There is indeed such a sign, and I think he may transfer me away, if he really wants to do something in the strategy battle."

Tia Bell frowned: "Turn you away? How?"
