The Advent of the Infinite King

The teleportation array on the [-]th floor was activated, and none of the people present left, but reached the [-]th floor together.

The last floor is different from the previous ones, the entire floor is like a hall, where they are located is a huge square, and in front is a palace-like building.

"Akihiko Kayaba, should it be there?" Tia Bell asked.

Xie Chen nodded, and said slowly: "It should be."

Asuna asked, "Shall we go there now?"

Xie Chen pursed his lips and smiled: "Of course not, let's go back and have a good rest before we talk." There was a glimmer of light in his eyes, and after the magic eye was opened, he could easily see who was staying in the hall. Kayaba Akihiko, in front of him, has many screens, on which are the figures of their group.

Xie Chen looked at Akihiko Kayaba without any concealment.And Kayaba Akihiko seemed to have noticed something, looking at Xie Chen who narrowed his eyes slightly on the screen, and frowned.The way he looked at Xie Chen, as if he could see him from so far away, made him feel uncomfortable.

Xie Chen looked at Kayaba Akihiko's expression, smiled slightly, turned around and said to them, "Okay, let's go back first."

Watching Xie Chen leave and the group of people behind him, Kayaba Akihiko's tightly pursed lips slowly relaxed, and finally smiled: "Why don't you come directly? Let's see what you can come up with." , I am here waiting for you."

After returning, Xie Chen held a meeting with all the members of the strategy team.Not only them, but everyone else can come and participate if they want, and the theme of this conference is about the last strategy battle, which is the final decisive battle.

This news spread to everyone's ears with the newspapers that were issued, and they paid special attention to this matter, more than all the previous matters.

This is the final battle. If they can succeed this time, it will mean that they have succeeded in the strategy and can return to reality.

At this time, no matter what the thoughts in the hearts of all people are, it is difficult to calm down.Facing the final battle, they couldn't help but stop what they were doing, or they were excited, or laughed, or cried directly, or just smiled lightly, full of anticipation.Everyone is paying close attention to this battle.

So when they found out that there was such a conference, many people decided to attend it.

"It would be great to see what the soldiers who have been fighting on the front line look like. It's really hard for these children." This is a person who has been on the [-]nd floor all year round. He doesn't have the ability to stand fast, so he has been staying here and living a life like a vacation, but he has also been paying attention to various news from the front line. Considering his age, he is called the Raiders team. "Children" are also normal, just like Xie Chen, Asuna, and Yingshan are all in their teens, and there are quite a few of them who are as old as them.Then upwards, that is, a little over [-] years old, this group of people accounts for the largest proportion, and the oldest is only [-] years old.

These people who are very young to him are people who have been struggling to clear the customs, but he has never seen what they look like, so he thought of taking this time to take a look and see what these people are What's it like.

There are quite a few people who have the same thoughts as him. Almost all of them are people who have been active in low-level activities all year round, and almost all of them are life players. They think that they should take a look at those people before leaving.

Others who are also fighters but are no longer in the Raiders group because of insufficient strength will definitely participate this time. According to them, this time is a matter of everyone's fate. If you don't go, you will that's too regretful.

In any case, the last and first national meeting was held.

The place Xie Chen and the others chose was on an empty square, that is, in the town of the beginning, the place where they had just landed. It has a special meaning to be held here, where it starts, where it starts Finish.

During the official meeting, they used props to make something like a loudspeaker, which could be heard clearly even if they were far away.Because of insufficient conditions, they couldn't make something like a big screen, but they also built many small high platforms on the square, with many projections on them, which were set up in advance, and someone was in charge of each.

When the conference was officially held, it was the third day after they conquered the [-]th floor, and many people gathered densely on the square.It is said that it is a national assembly, but not all the people who came to participate, but there are two to three thousand people.But even with so many people standing on the square, it doesn't look crowded.

Xie Chen stood on the high platform, looked at the crowd below, and thought carefully.Asuna stood beside him with a slightly serious expression on her face.Then there was Tia Bell, with a signature smile on the corner of his mouth.Standing on the other side of Xie Chen was Ramos, with an indifferent expression and no apparent thoughts.To the side are the guild leaders of other guilds, and then to the back are the well-known people in the strategy group who performed well.The rest of the people stood on both sides of the high platform, looking at the crowd below, not exchanging a word or two.

With so many people here, even if half of them whispered a few words, it would be very noisy. The entire square was full of people's discussions, and there was an endless "buzzing".

At this time, Sheng also walked to Xie Chen's side and said, "Leader, it's almost time to start."

Xie Chen nodded and said, "Okay, you can make arrangements, the meeting will start right away."

After seeing Sheng Ye's gesture, Xie Chen stood there and breathed a sigh of relief, then took a step forward, and there was a gadget floating in front of him, something like a microphone.

Xie Chen looked around, and then said in a deep voice: "Everyone." His voice rang out from the square at the same time, reaching everyone's ears.

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

Hearing Xie Chen's voice, the people who were still talking unconsciously closed their mouths. Seeing that the scene was much quieter, Xie Chen said again: "Everyone, thank you very much for coming today. I am the head of the Demon Knights. At the same time lead the strategy team to carry out strategies on the front line, I think you all know my name."

Just as he finished his sentence, someone shouted from below, "It's the Lord Demon King!", "I finally saw what the Lord Demon King looks like! I'm so excited!" Seeing their somewhat excited faces, Xie Chen smiled slightly, After the voices fell silent again, he continued: "Today's meeting has only one theme, which is the final decisive battle. Three days ago, we have successfully attacked the [-]th floor, so we stopped the plan of the offensive battle. After that, we discussed it, and finally decided to hold such a meeting, which can be regarded as communicating with everyone before the final battle."

Xie Chen paused, and continued: "The theme of today's meeting is very simple. It is just to tell you what we want to say so far. First of all, I am a closed beta player of the SAO game, and I am also a beta tester. Time to reach the highest level of players. Then after officially logging into the game, I was as surprised and angry as you at the beginning, but I was not empty and afraid. Because no matter what, things have become a foregone conclusion. If you want to go back , and there is only fighting. So in the first month, I was able to make up my mind to fight and use my own strength to attack people who struggled to clear the level. Now they are almost behind me. This world is different from the real world. Some people adapt well, some people don't. But no matter what, at this point, it will be over soon."

Xie Chen looked at them with a smile on the corner of his mouth. There were some truths and some lies in this passage, and the false point was naturally his state of mind when he first came in.Then he looked at the mixed reactions of the people below, and continued: "So before the end, I thought, these people who have been fighting desperately for everyone, shouldn't more people remember him? After this final battle is over, perhaps some people will never return to reality."

In the end, it was unexpectedly sad.Xie Chen looked back, indicating that Sheng could also start.Then he said: "On the high platform among you, the information of everyone in the Raiders team will be released. I hope they can be remembered by more people."

As soon as the voice fell, everyone on the high platform took out the equipment they had prepared in advance, and played the prepared projection synchronously.The first one is Xie Chen, who is wearing a black armor and a red cloak with a smile on his mouth and piercing eyes.

The next one is Asuna, and then Tiabell, Ramos, Kirito, etc... After everyone's image comes out, there will be some people whispering, and they almost listen to everyone on it. name, and the first few are even more impressive.

After five full minutes, the projection ended.

Xie Chen nodded in satisfaction, looked at the reactions of all the people below, smiled and said: "I have finished reading about my family's illness, then I will finish my speech, and Asuna will explain to you what follows. "

After hearing this, Asuna took a step forward, crossed Xie Chen's eyes, nodded slightly, and then stood at the front: "I am very touched that everyone can come here today. What I want to explain next is that at the end Before the battle, there are some preparations to be made, and some things to say."

Asuna's face was serious, her tone was calm, she spoke in a leisurely manner, and the people below listened very seriously.Next was Ramos. He still had no expression on his face. He had been like this since Heathcliff's identity was exposed.

The first thing he said was about Heathcliff. Their group leader, who was the final boss they were about to face, was shocked, but they would still try their best to fight.

After he finished speaking, it was another person. After a brief speech, Xie Chen stood at the front again and glanced at everyone, and then slowly said: "The final battle that is about to begin may be an end, But it may not be. But I believe that we will win." A few simple words showed his confidence.People who were worried about whether they could succeed could not help but feel relieved after hearing his words.

The final battle officially started on the second day of the meeting.

When they arrived at the Red Jade Palace again, a huge projection appeared on the huge square, exactly the same as when they first entered.The difference is that Kayaba Akihiko's image is directly projected on the sky.

He said to them with a confident and expectant expression: "The last brave, you have finally arrived. I am looking forward to the final battle. Come, fight with me. If you win, you If you can liberate everyone here, if you lose... you should have discovered that this is the crystal invalidation area."

"In other words, if we don't succeed this time, we won't have a chance." Asuna said in a low voice.Xie Chen nodded slightly and narrowed his eyes: "Probably."

"So, let's start the battle." Akihiko Kayaba smiled slightly in the projection above, and said to them.

Xie Chen and the others only felt a little dizzy in front of Hua Hua, and found that they had changed places.Surrounded by tall pillars, the entire space is bright and transparent, the sky can be seen directly above, and the golden clouds are beautiful.

Xie Chen looked around, he was the only one here.Xie Chen frowned and looked around, and then saw Kayaba Akihiko appearing in front of him, then slowly walked towards him, and said: "The final battle will not require too many people, and if the siege Don't you think it's too unfair? So in the final decisive battle, there can only be one person participating, and this person is you, the Demon King."

The people who were left outside looked at each other, seeing that the place where Xie Chen was standing suddenly became empty with a flash of light, and before they were in a hurry, they saw that the projection of the place that was originally Kayaba Akihiko had turned into a hall In the scene inside, the disappeared Xie Chen just stood there.

Asuna tightly pursed her lips and wanted to run over to the main hall over there, but was stopped by Tia Bellu, then shook her head and said to her: "Trust Xie Chen." Asuna frowned, and passed After a while, he walked back slowly, looked at the projection in the sky, and said in a low voice: "Take care, Chen."

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

The rest of the people glanced at each other, and they all stood there and stared at the screen tightly with their heads up. Although there was only the picture and no sound, it was enough.

Xie Chenxing took a step forward, and slowly pulled out a sword from his waist. The blood-red sword exuded a crystal luster.

Kayaba Akihiko looked at the sword in his hand, and a flash of understanding flashed in his eyes, and said: "So this sword is with you. I thought that no one would accept that mission. It is worthy of being the brave man I chose." , did a good job."

Xie Chen frowned and then let go, a faint smile curled up on the corner of his mouth, and said: "What to do with so much talk, why not just start."

Akihiko Kayaba was very satisfied with Xie Chen's current calm state. He said, "Then, as you wish, let's start." Bright blue light.

Corresponding to it was the red light on the blood blade in Xie Chen's hand. It seemed that some kind of opportunity had come, and the two of them moved at the same time.The two swords intersected, arousing a pleasant golden sound.During the battle, the figures of the two quickly crossed each other, and their expressions couldn't help becoming serious, their eyes were piercing, comparable to Jian Guang.

With a sound of "clang", the figures of Xie Chen and Kayaba Akihiko stopped at the same time. Xie Chen knelt down on one knee, and Kayaba Akihiko raised his sword forward. There was a distance of two or three meters between them back to back.

Xie Chen stood up and wiped his face with his hands, feeling a little tingling.On the side of his face, a thin scar flashed away.

Over there, Kayaba Akihiko stood up again, turned to look at Xie Chen, looked down at the wound on his waist, and said to Xie Chen: "As expected, your sword skills are very good."

Xie Chen didn't speak, but directly rushed over with his sword, drawing the sword!

This move was so swift that Kayaba Akihiko, who was speaking, couldn't react for a while. His eyes widened slightly, and he quickly retreated, but he was still injured by the sword.

After this move passed, Xie Chen turned around and said to him, "Thanks for the compliment."

Kayaba Akihiko's complexion was really not good. After staring at Xie Chen for a while, he suddenly laughed and said, "Hahaha, your character really matches your name. If that's the case, then Let's fight." Xie Chen frowned, and fought with Kayaba Akihiko who rushed over.

It's the same this time, Xie Chen didn't turn on the additional state.Just relying on his own strength to fight Kayaba Akihiko.But even so, it was already possible to beat him like this.

Kayaba Akihiko is actually a little surprised now. He feels that he has understood Xie Chen's strength enough, but he did not expect that his strength has reached this point. It seems that he still underestimated him.His eyes dimmed a little, his current strength was completely different from when he was Heathcliff, and he only had two blood bars.

Because his current identity is the final boss of the Red Jade Palace, the increase in strength is of course according to the standard of the boss, but due to the final battle mode, the blood volume is not so much, but even so, it is better than Xie Chen's. More than doubled.

In addition, the attributes of speed, defense and agility have been improved.So gradually, Xie Chen's current strength was somewhat suppressed.

Then he silently activated his own skills, including power enhancement LV3, defense enhancement LV3, reflex enhancement LV2, and mental power enhancement LV2. The subsequent changes were very obvious. Xie Chen's strength had at least doubled times!Just now I felt a little stagnant and strenuous, but now I feel more at ease.

In Kayaba Akihiko's eyes, such a change was extremely astonishing, what happened?Why was he so relaxed all of a sudden?Did you use any skills?He frowned tightly.Because there are so many skills in SAO, even he doesn't know if the combination of several skills can produce such an effect.So he just increased his speed again.Do his best to suppress Xie Chen, if this situation is caused by some kind of skill, he must persist for a long time, he thought silently in his heart.

But the situation was different from what he thought. He thought that Xie Chen would soon become the same as it was at the beginning, but after more than a dozen rounds, Xie Chen's state was still the same.

The people standing on the square stared at Xie Chen and the others closely, and their hearts were tightly pulled.Seeing that Xie Chen was gradually not being suppressed, Asuna breathed a sigh of relief, and her heart that had been hanging was slightly let go.

In the main hall, Xie Chen gradually felt that the time was almost up, glanced at Kayaba Akihiko's blood bar, his eyes froze slightly, and he shaved instantly!

He hadn't used this skill before just for now!With the instant shaving and knife drawing technique, Xie Chen didn't give him any time to react, and directly stabbed the blood blade deeply into Kayaba Akihiko's chest, and the blood bar on the top slowly fell and then returned to zero.

Kayaba Akihiko narrowed his eyes, looked at Xie Chen's blood bar that had also turned into red, and smiled: "It really is the brave man I chose."

After Kayaba Akihiko was defeated, the players in SAO found that people around them disappeared after a flash of blue light. This effect...a guess emerged in their hearts.Sure enough, did it succeed?

In reality, the biggest news today is that the players in SAO are waking up one after another today, and now there are only more than [-] people left from the previous [-] players.

Xie Chen stood above the sea of ​​clouds, watching Aincrad under the golden sea of ​​clouds gradually disintegrate, and left here after talking with Akihiko Kayaba who came over.

After opening his eyes, Xie Chen found that he was still in his bedroom.Sitting up full, feeling the strength of his body, Xie Chen smiled: "Sure enough, it's still easy to use."

O'Oulas finally showed up at this time, and said, "The task has been completed, congratulations."

Xie Chen smiled slightly and said, "Oolas, long time no see."

Asuna, who finished her physical examination, walked in the corridor with some difficulty. Her body, which has not been used for a long time, needs to be slowly exercised in order to recover.Her feet were soft and she closed her eyes tightly, but she found herself.fell into an embrace.She opened her eyes, was stunned for a moment, then stretched out her hand to touch the person's cheek, and called softly, "Chen?"

Xie Chen smiled: "Asuna, I'm here to find you."

Volume 1 "Legend of Sword and Fairy III" Chapter [-] Prologue

Xie Chen has already completed this task, so he can't stay in this world for long after all. He accompanied Asuna to recover step by step, and then entered the school specially established for returning SAO players with her. After getting rid of Nobuyuki Sugo, who had been coveting Asuna, no matter how reluctant he was, he could only leave in the end.

Because Asuna is just an ordinary person, even if Xie Chen wanted to take Asuna away, he couldn't do it. In the end, he could only make Asuna's memory with the help of Aoulas. After seeing Asuna's dazed gaze, Xie Chen felt a slight pain in his heart.

He looked at Asuna, and said silently in his heart, Asuna, when I have enough strength one day, I will come back and take you away, and then unseal your memory.

Xie Chen stood in the void, looking at the vast sea of ​​people below, with a dazed expression.

O'Oulas laughed and said, "What? Feeling reluctant?"

Xie Chen lowered his eyes and smiled: "Fortunately, I just have a little regret."
