Artoria wants to read people's hearts

When Arturia heard this, her eyes darkened a little, then flickered for a while, and became a little deep again, and then ignited an uncontrollable anger.

"You... what is the purpose of doing this?"

Suppressing her anger, she said sharply, "How can doing such an evil deed bring you any good?"

She didn't want to point her sword at the player, so she stubbornly wanted to find out the specific reason.

but.........

"Ha!" The despicable man looked up at the girl in front of him. He licked his lower lip, with strong malice in his eyes, "Purpose?"

"It's ridiculous. What's the purpose? It's just because it's so interesting."

He grinned, an unabashedly malicious grin on his face.

"........."

Hearing the other party's answer like this, Artoria couldn't help being silent for a moment.

She turned her head and looked at the other players except that person, "...you, do you think so too?"

As for Arturia's question, the reply they received was their sneer after another.

There are so many people here, and she is only one person. No matter how she thinks about it, the girl has no room to resist at this moment.

With a mocking and malicious smile, he looked at her slender figure.

After seeing this situation and receiving such a response, Arturia still didn't understand.

then..........

"—Ah, I see."

She took a deep breath, her voice was a little hoarse, but her eyes were as bright as the morning light.

"It turns out that you are all hopeless people..."

Artoria stretched out her hand to help the little girl stand up, then leaned over her head and whispered something in her ear, and after getting a response from the other party, she turned around and let the little girl hide behind her.

"I really feel sorry for you." She said while raising the long sword in her hand, "Disregarding life and taking pleasure in it, you have lost the most basic bottom line as a person."

"So—" The girl's face was calm, her emerald green eyes seemed to be separated by a layer of mist, and she couldn't see the emotions clearly. "—I really feel sad for you."

"If you want to ask why." The girl enunciated each word clearly, "Obviously, because you are no longer worthy of being human!"

Chapter 20 People Can't, At Least Shouldn't... ([-] in [-])

Benevolence, righteousness, propriety, wisdom, faith.

In this world, there are certain principles that people must never violate, but now it is obvious that these players have completely trampled on these principles.

Compared with those thought prisoners who at least have bright eyes, their hearts are dirtier.

As for such a person, Artoria is no longer willing to waste any more words.

All she can do now is the last bit left.

That is.........

The eyes are scattered, and the wind is strong.

As if the moment the blade was unsheathed, Arturia's green eyes sharpened sharply.

Pointing the blade at the players in front of her, she exerted force on her feet, relying only on the strength of her own flesh/body, in an instant she reached the ultimate speed that ordinary people could hardly achieve.

The girl stepped on the windy bushes and disappeared in the same place in an instant.

Facing the evil ghost players in the distance, she held her head high, and a sharp sword light suddenly burst out from the hands of the blond girl.

Her speed is too fast, so fast that those players can't react at all.

The blade of the sword struck the man's abdomen, and the huge force swept him away with just one blow.

The man's body knocked down the trees behind him, and together with himself and the tree trunk, it hit the ground with a "bang".

It was just a face-to-face meeting. The man who spoke freely and generously before, HP fell to the edge of danger in an instant.

From this, it can be seen that Artoria has mastered the strength very well.

Artoria stopped steadily, and looked sharply at the embarrassed man who was struggling and trying to get up from the ground.

"........."

The scene in front of me happened so quickly that other players couldn't help but froze in place.

After they reacted, shock, fear......

These negative emotions suddenly exploded in their hearts.

How could this be?

Obviously she didn't use any skills......

Is it difficult to do this by relying on pure strength? !

Such a terrifying power, is this guy really human? !

Artoria didn't care what those people were thinking at the moment, because she cared more about another thing now.

His eyes moved to the cursor above that person's head, it was a dazzling red color, the meaning it represented, presumably every "SAO" player knew very well.

This means that this guy has not only killed people, but even killed more than one person.

but..........

It's strange, obviously before this, the cursor above his head was still green.

"........."

Pursing her lips lightly, Arturia couldn't help clenching the long sword in her hand.

She thought of all the weird mission props in this game world, maybe this bastard used some kind of props to cover up his own red name.

That being the case, does this mean that........

Turning her head, she scanned the heads of the others one by one. After seeing the green cursors above their heads, she couldn't help but have some guesses in her mind.

Some tasks can be received repeatedly, and task props can also be obtained repeatedly.

This group of people can be mixed with this famous player, and everyone must be famous.

'So.........'

Artoria's eyes fell, her eyes were as cold as snow, "It seems that there is no need for me to keep my hands." '

"Who the hell are you?!"

Maybe it's because her eyes are too cold, and there are lessons learned from the previous man.

When seeing the girl looking in their direction, one of them couldn't help but shouted in horror.

"—We are [Smiling Coffin], do you know what will happen if you mess with us?!"

"Smile....coffin?"

Hearing this name from the other party's mouth unexpectedly, Artoria couldn't help but flashed a hint of confusion in her eyes.

Smile and coffin, such a strange combination, it sounds... like the name of some game guild.

Just when she was wondering, a cold and moving voice suddenly sounded not far behind her.

"...So it turns out that you are members of [Smiling Coffin]."

Following the sound, I looked over, and at the edge of the forest, Asuna was already standing there at some point.

And behind her was the little girl who was saved by Artoria not long ago.

"!!!"

Their eyes widened in astonishment. When the group of players saw the little girl appearing there, they couldn't help turning their heads to look at the place where Artoria was standing before.

But at this moment, there was no one there.

Damn it!When exactly? !

The player whose ID is [Red-Eyed Shasa] couldn't help biting his molars hard when he saw this.

Just now, all their minds were focused on this strange girl, and none of them noticed that the brat had disappeared.

What a mistake! !

It turned out that what Artoria said in the little girl's ear just now was to make her turn around and look for Asuna who was staying where she was, waiting for her to bring back the news.

but...........

I told you to go find her, but I didn't tell you to bring her here.

She tapped her sword hilt with her fingers, then sighed helplessly.

Forget it, if you think about it with your brain, you know that with Asuna's temperament, after learning about the situation here, she definitely won't just sit around and wait for her to finish her work.

And it's all here, it's definitely not realistic to let her go back now.

Glancing at the player who was already struggling to stand up with his eyes, Artoria's hand moved subconsciously, and then pressed down forcefully.

No, this guy's HP has already dropped to the lowest value. If he makes up for it at this time, he will definitely die.

Although that person's death is not a pity, but at least......, I can't kill him in front of Asuna.

"...So, what the hell is [Smiling Coffin]?"

Turning around, she put half of her attention on Asuna, and then softly asked her about the meaning of these four words.

So, from the other party's mouth, she heard words that made her regret for keeping her hand just now.

This guild named [Smiling Coffin] was created not long after the game started, and many orange and red players joined it, and then embarked on the crazy path of crime.

What they believe in is: Since it is a death game, killing people is a matter of course, so enjoy the game happily, because this is the right given to all players.

Such anti-social remarks can be said to completely annihilate the three views and morality of being a human being.

When people like this are killing people, what are they thinking in their hearts?

"......"

Taking a deep breath, Arturia's heart felt unspeakably heavy at the moment.

Her eyelashes trembled slightly, she raised her eyes slightly, and then glanced at all the hostile players present.

So, she can't understand the madman's thinking at all...

Perhaps he was shocked by Artoria's force, or he saw that there was even Asuna as a reinforcement.

All in all, the members of that group of [Smiling Coffin] want to retreat at this time.

But is it really possible to leave so easily?

The answer is of course no.

Just hearing "Shua!", Artoria drew her sword out of its sheath again.

Like a shooting star falling from the sky in the far distance, [Red-eyed Shasa] stared blankly at the light, and his retreat paused for a moment, even the vigilance in his heart was loosened by the sudden surprise a little.

So in the next second, he followed in the footsteps of his previous companion.

That sword move was unprecedentedly amazing. She didn't use any systematic skills at all, and only relied on her own strength and skill to swing the long sword. The figure of the blond girl looked elegant and fierce.

In fact, not only him, but all his companions, one by one, were all slapped on the tree by Artoria. At the same time, everyone's HP also dropped to Equally dangerous fringes.

"you........."

He opened his eyes wide, looking at the blond girl in front of him in disbelief, like the lingering sound of breathing from his nasal cavity, accompanied by a thick breath.

This game is not able to completely shield the pain, so when the pain that was enough to kill in real life was brought to the body just now, they couldn't even speak completely at this moment.

And because of the pain, it was very difficult for that group of people to even make large movements.

Artoria's eyes that were like ice springs emitted a little cold light, and there was no trace of a smile on her white face like snow, and her whole face looked as cold as nine winters.

But even so, it didn't affect her charm in the slightest, she looked as mysterious as an orchid in a deep valley, or a plum blossom in snow.

The matter has come to this point, after Artoria hurt them so much, she doesn't plan to continue anymore.

Because the next step is to die, it is better for me to leave some leeway in doing things in front of Asuna and the little girl.

After all, even though she didn't think it mattered about killing people, it would be a little bad if it frightened the two of them.
