infinite blood sorrow

"On the other hand, once you all log out, while weakening our strength in the game, it will also bring strong pressure to the opponent. At least the opponent will send four senior people to deal with you. In this way, we will be able to deal with you in the game. Four formidable opponents are missing."

"As for dealing with the rest..."

"Science and I, enough is enough!"

Chapter 60 Changes at the Beginning (Revised)

As soon as the words fell, when the gentleman and black and white were silently thinking about Mo Ao's decision, Mo Ao suddenly stopped them again.

"Wait a minute, Miss Black and White, before I log out, I need to ask you to send me a letter." Mo Ao said.

"This letter is not very convenient for me to handle. Send it to Argo directly after editing."

Mo Ao's eyes narrowed, and the eyeballs turned from left to right.Think about every step in the future.

This letter cannot pass through his hands. If it is not because black and white have no connections, it does not need to be handed over to Argo. To be precise, the fewer people passing this letter, the better.

None, because the addressee was—Heathcliff.

========== After logging out ==========

After a night of silence, Mo Ao and Zhao Yun got up early the next day.

Although after Gentleman and Black and White logged out, only Mo Ao and Zhao Yun were left alone in the huge guild.But on the one hand, Mo Ao's head is now full of high-memory things, and on the other hand, the young man is not so handsome as to make people fall in love with him.

So they are also lonely and widowed, compared to Kirito Asuna's adultery, ahem, the passion, the coldness here makes people feel a little uncomfortable.

Fortunately, neither of them cared much about the character of the atmosphere.Hmm... To put it in a nutshell, it is - EQ, but willful.

"Hey! Are we just waiting like this? How long will we have to wait?" Zhao Yun was smart, but she didn't seem to be very good at calculating. She didn't point fingers at Mo Ao's instructions, but she still showed a lot of impatience.

"I don't know. The plan to crusade against Hongming has already begun, but no matter what they do, they always have to hold a meeting to discuss it. Although it is a bit time-consuming for us, we can only wait."

"Ding! Nanzhongzhou team member Disbo died, and the current score is three points."

"Ding! Qi Zhenghao, a member of the Nanzhongzhou team, died, and the current score is two points."

"Ding! South Central Continent team members..."

suddenly!A series of ear-piercing reminders sounded, Mo Ao's expression changed drastically, and he stood up from his chair directly.

"Ding! Liu Feihang, a member of the South Central Continent team, died, and the current score is negative by three points."

Eight consecutive beeps came so quickly that people could not be caught off guard, and even before Death Alice opened the server, the South Central Continent team lost four points in an instant.

Who leaked the news? !

This was Mo Ao's first thought, he had no doubt that this was done by the people of Beiyanzhou, but after second thought, it was not realistic.

Nan Zhongzhou had eight people in the battle group in the game, and two of them died.The remaining eight people have been living in the town of beginning as a living group, and at most they will go to the safe area of ​​other layers for fishing and mining.

Unless those eight people committed suicide, who would know that they were in the town of the beginning?

But the queen's hands and feet were all in the minds of those eight people, and the most basic confidentiality regulations can be rest assured.They are just like ordinary life players, enjoying life and killing time, and they usually don’t enter the wild area. After that, they rely on the experience level of life skills to get up, and they can also walk horizontally in the lower layers, which is safe and happy.

Under such circumstances, Mo Ao couldn't figure out why this group of people would suddenly disappear.

After ruling out most of the unreasonable reasons, Mo Ao's mind was shocked, and he had a vague guess, and his face became even more ugly.

At this moment, the email reminder from Argo also sounded.

The content is very concise and easy to understand-

"Hurry up to the town of beginning! Those guys... are massacring the city!"

==========Six-layer Pani==========

In a building near the teleportation array, almost all the members of the clearing team gathered in a huge space.

Mo Ao and Zhao Yun were gathered in the opposite corner, and the expressions on their faces were equally unsightly.

The red-named players occupied the starting town, slaughtered half of the ordinary players who were powerless, and finally used the starting town as their base to take the rest of the players as hostages. Dare to act rashly.

This is no longer a problem at the level of a murderer, or even a terrorist is not enough.You must know that there are thousands of people in such a large starting town.

Originally, Mo Ao killed PoH just to force Bei Yanzhou to flip the table. According to his prediction, without PoH, the famous players would lose their backbone and become just a mob.The strength of the partners of the Beiyanzhou team has been greatly weakened, and the original balance between the two sides in the game will be broken.

Bei Yanzhou, who was at a disadvantage, had no choice but to turn the table when time was running out.

But who would have thought that this group of people would be so insane, maybe it was due to the pressure of "minus five points" that made them eager to get reward points to avoid being wiped out. In short, such things as massacring the city made this group of people do it insanely .

As for how this group of celebrities killed people in the safe zone, those from Beiyanzhou were not surprised at all in Mo Ao.

Mo Ao even guessed that the reason why half of these people stayed was because they found those eight life players from South Central Continent when they killed half of them.The almost free eight points and a total of 16000 bonus points gave them more leeway.

But now the strategy group is caught in a dilemma. With hostages in hand, it is definitely impossible to fight.But it is also impossible to let these famous names hold the hostages in the hands of the starting town, and they cannot retreat.

With this stalemate, the progress of the strategy has come to a standstill, and the whole of Aincrad seems to have fallen into some kind of unsolvable deadlock.

"Don't panic, don't panic, don't panic..." After reading the information Argo brought, Mo Ao rubbed his brows and kept repeating these three words.

"I said, it seems that now is the time for you to calm down." Zhao Yun looked at Mo Ao like this, feeling a little irritable.She wasn't blaming Mo Ao, what upset her was that the situation had developed to this point, and even now she had no idea of ​​breaking the situation.

"...I'm working hard..." Hearing Zhao Yun's words, Mo Ao was afraid that he would lose his composure now, he admitted frankly, but there was no way to do it.By now, if he could really deal with everything calmly without being nervous, he would feel unrealistic.

"What do we do now?"

"What to do... Now that the strategy has stagnated, it is not realistic to pass the level with the natural development of the same plot. But the strategy group will not just sit around here. I guess it won't be long before the four major guilds will go to fight with the red negotiating with more than one player, at worst a series of diversionary actions will be taken.”

"There are two main tasks for you..."

"What about you?" Zhao Yun asked after listening to Mo Ao's arrangement.

"I'm going to see Akihiko Kayaba!" Mo Ao's eyes shone with determination.

"If I don't come back, tell Kirito the identity of Akihiko Kayaba, and take the initiative to facilitate the plot."

"Thank you for your willingness to cooperate with my not-so-smart kindergarten plan."

"At least I'll keep you alive, I promise!"

==========Appendix==========

Chapter 61 Akihiko Kayaba, I'm here to negotiate terms (edit)

There was a power outage at home the night before yesterday, and it lasted until yesterday afternoon, so there is no update, above!

In the venue on the sixth floor, this day is the day when the strategy team organizes negotiations with the Red Name Guild, at least on the surface.

The guild leaders of the four major guilds have reached the third, and their respective members occupy the four sides, and the solo players stand in a relatively peripheral position.

And in the direction of the Knights of the Blood, Kirito, who was dressed as a Knight of the Blood, stood beside Asuna, and Asuna, the deputy head of the Knights of the Blood, looked anxious.

"It's almost time, why hasn't the leader arrived yet?" This is a big day for the crusade against red names, and according to the leader's past behavior, it is impossible to be late.

But they have already pressed the line, but Heathcliff still shows no signs of appearing.Not even answering the communication.

What happened?

========== The other side ==========

Mo Ao came out from the guild, unlike usual, he was not wearing his own hunter outfit.

Looking back at the [Bloodborne Curse] guild's residence, Mo Ao's mood was a bit complicated. No matter how long he lived in this place for almost two years, he was really reluctant.

If you walk out of this place this time, maybe you won't come back again.

After picking up his mood, Mo Ao turned around and didn't look back. He walked a few steps, but stopped again.

"Why are you here?" Mo Ao's voice was full of surprise.

Trench coat, hood, mouse whiskers.

Argo was waiting for him at the gate of the guild?

"I have handed over the letter you asked me to deliver to Heathcliff." Argo did not answer Mo Ao's question, but explained another matter.

"Ha, just to say that? Thanks."

"What do you want to do in such an urgent situation?" Argo asked, frowning.

At a time like this, shouldn't an important combat power like Mo Ao gather in the town of the beginning immediately, trying to rescue those ordinary players?

"What are you planning? Why didn't you tell me?"

"Well, don't be nervous, it's not something important, it's just a private matter." Mo Ao smiled indifferently. "When the things here are done, I will leave for the town of beginning immediately."

Mo Ao smiled as he walked forward like a stroll, and when he came to Argo's side, he reached out and rubbed her head.

"Then, bye."

"If you want to go, go, don't touch my head!"

========== Meeting ==========

"Sorry for keeping you waiting." When he arrived at the place, Mo Ao looked at Heathcliff standing upright in the open space in the wild area, and said politely. "But I didn't expect that you would come so early in advance."

"In contrast, you are very punctual!...Mo Aojun." Facing the young man who was walking towards him, Heathcliff, or Kayaba Akihiko, looked calm .

"..." Mo Ao narrowed his eyes when he heard the words, but the two sides basically shared the balance, so he didn't take it seriously.

"This name, did you just see it from my registration information?"

"That's not the case. In fact, I've been paying attention to you for a long time." After all, it's my own game. It's understandable that a group of undisguised cheaters will attract the attention of the GM.

"But I'm very strange, how did you determine my identity?"

"It's not a commendable method, please allow me to avoid this answer." Mo Ao changed the subject, he couldn't just say that I had read the script from the beginning. "It's quite stressful to talk to the GM like this, can you get straight to the point?"

"Of course there is no problem. Then Mo Aojun, why did you go out of your way to ask me out at this time?"

"Cheer up. We have to start from the beginning."

"Since you said that you have been following us for a long time, then you should already know that our group of guys who use all kinds of weird skills are actually divided into two camps." Mo Ao looked straight at Akihiko Kayaba, his hands unnatural Holding it tightly, I was very nervous, but on the surface, I tried to show myself as natural as possible.

"It's worth mentioning that there has been an undying relationship between our two camps from the very beginning. And now those who massacre civilian players in the safe zone of the starting town are our enemies."

"You want me to help you deal with people from the other camp?" Kayaba Akihiko couldn't hear what he was thinking in his tone.

"Although I don't really want to admit it, the reality is that these people are likely to threaten our lives in reality. Therefore, in order to kill them in the game, we really need your help."

"Why should I help you?"

"Don't worry! I risked my life to meet you, GM, so straightforwardly. So although the next words may be presumptuous, please listen to them."

"I want to make a deal with you." Mo Ao stared at Akihiko Kayaba without blinking his eyes, his whole body crumpled tightly, although if the other party wanted to kill him as a GM, this level of vigilance might be completely complete. It was useless, but the strong sense of tension still made him subconsciously alert.

"I want to get GM permission and customs clearance permission!"

"Oh? I have a lot of appetite." Akihiko Kayaba showed some interest. "Even though neither of those things is a big deal to me..."

"But what capital do you have in exchange?"

"I have prepared three reasons, I wonder if I can convince you?" Mo Ao had anticipated Kayaba Akihiko's questioning, and pretended to be relaxed and said with a smile.

"I know that you have selected a [brave] among the players. Although that [brave] is not me, I think [the devil] should be happy to see someone challenge him. This is one of them."

"Secondly, the group of famous players who are against us has fundamentally affected the progress of the game. If we don't get rid of them, we will never be able to pass the game. So even if it is a bit far-fetched, we have the same interests."

"The above two points are the method and premise of our trading. In the end, it is the capital I use for trading-I can give you the answer you have been looking for!"

Clearing the original book's understanding of Akihiko Kayaba is Mo Ao's biggest bargaining chip.And what he chose was exactly what Kayaba Akihiko pursued all his life-there is the possibility contained in the data world!This is his only hope of breaking and convincing Akihiko Kayaba.

"!..." Kayaba Akihiko was finally moved, he who showed everything under control from the beginning to the end, finally showed a surprised expression.

"I don't know how confident you are to say such things in front of me, but...why should I trust you?"

"I don't need you to believe me." Mo Ao said. "I made it very clear just now."

"The duel between our two camps has come to an end. I have no time to waste. I can only risk everything for a big gamble. I am bound to win the GM authority and customs clearance authority!"

"I will challenge you. It doesn't matter what method you use. You can use GM authority and boss attribute templates. And I will defeat you. At that time, please give me GM authority and customs clearance authority."

"As for the answer I just said..."

"It's in my knife!"

"You, get it yourself!"
