What the hell is this movie theater?

There were only a handful of times when Su Hong took someone or something seriously after coming to this world.

The only time when he took something seriously like this was shown in front of others was the night when he faced Yui and asked him a question - and now, it was such a time.

He got serious.

Su Hong felt overwhelmed when faced with Yui's question. Essentially, Yui was a "newborn child" in a sense, which made his answer closer to "safe" and "objective". All he wanted was It’s just that he didn’t deceive Yui’s thoughts and thinking patterns, so that he was walking on thin ice.

Because he realized that his every word and deed might be interpreted by [Yui] using a magnifying glass and microscope to interpret every word he said. Every word he said made him rack his brains. .

——Now Yui can be regarded as a newborn child. It is normal to be confused and curious about me. And what is your identity, Kayaba Akihiko?Why are you being so arrogant to me in front of me and criticizing what I do?

"Don't you think it's ridiculous?"

Su Hong looked at Heathcliff and sneered.

"Even if online games are given krypton gold or other attributes, first of all, online games themselves should make people feel fun and worth investing in. Therefore, online games will have equipment systems, numerical systems, skill systems, entertainment systems, life systems and social interactions. system.

The game we are playing now called "Sword Art Online" makes players feel like prisoners in a cage after being unable to be resurrected, let alone whether the game is fun or not.

Although I admit that "Sword Art Online", as a completely stealth online game, is very realistic and great, and can be regarded as an important chapter in human history, this still cannot change that it has become a death game under the premise of [Game I don’t think is fun].

Since I don’t think this game is fun, and the players who play this game are just prisoners in a prison, then as a prisoner, I naturally have to create a game method that is most suitable for me within limited conditions.

Two weeks before this death game was announced, what did you see in the floating city of Aincrad?A horde of walking dead.

I just fulfilled my right as a player to play the game my own way, and I was judged back and forth by their prisoners who were not players - don't you think it's ridiculous? "

Xinka felt that the atmosphere of this conversation was suddenly full of gunpowder for some reason. He wanted to suppress the unpleasant atmosphere by speaking out, but he was actually a little curious about a certain part of Su Hong's words——

"Can this game...become a significant moment in human history?"

"This game cannot become a highlight in human history. Instead, it has become a shame that can be recorded in human history. It is because of the creator of this death game - Kayaba Akihiko."

After coming to this world, Su Hong has never been so full of aggression as he is now.

"This kind of completely invisible technology of virtual reality can bring good news to many industries and bring happiness to many people. However, Kayaba Akihiko insists on using the cross-generational technology of virtual reality in killing people as he does now. on this matter.

When this virtual reality technology is applied to the medical industry, it can bring light and hope to disabled patients, allowing them to be down to earth with their complete selves; when applied to the aerospace industry and high-risk industries, robots can be used to replace humans to perform dangerous tasks; even if Just by applying it to games and life, it can also allow friends and relatives who are far apart to meet each other in the game and maintain relationships.

But what about now?Virtual reality technology became a tool used by Kayaba Akihiko to kill people.

Compared to how I was laughing like a lunatic all day long in Beginning Town, I didn’t look like a normal person, which made people feel ridiculous. Could it be that the crimes Kayaba Akihiko committed using virtual reality technology, and this, could allow me to come into contact with this false world? , isn’t the magical reality before me even more ridiculous? "

"Indeed," Heathcliff nodded calmly, "the most ridiculous thing is the magical reality that happens to us."

"Humph."

Su Hong did not continue to ridicule Kayaba Akihiko, but accepted his show of weakness.

After all, he has no intention of fighting him to the death, and since he has taken advantage, there is no need to kill them all to prevent the rabbit from kicking the eagle.

"If it's just because it's good for you that I go to the Central Square every night to have a seizure, you don't need to ask me to come over here - I appear in the Central Square almost every night, so there's no need for you to make such a fuss. Send me an invitation."

"Well... well, haha," Xinka said as he haha, softening the subtle atmosphere of the conversation. "We found that you can increase combat experience by fighting with other players on the street, so we extended the invitation to you."

"Can I gain more experience by fighting with other players on the street using French sticks?" When Su Hong heard this sentence, his head suddenly short-circuited for a moment. The idiot called up his character attribute bar and took a look at it and said inexplicably. , "There is no change in my experience bar?"

"This is not the combat experience we are talking about," Xinka said in a funny and helpless voice. "The combat experience we are talking about is combat experience such as on-the-spot reactions and dodges during combat, not experience points."

"Oh...that's it," Su Hong raised his eyebrows, "You mean you want me to use the French stick as the combat guide in the game? For example, newcomers should know when to attack and when to block. Block, when to dodge, etc.?”

"That's right," Xinka nodded seriously, "Although "Sword Art Online" is a virtual online game, it is still an action game related to cold weapon combat. Real-life armed combat is also quite common in this game. So when you duel with other people on the street using baguettes, you can definitely help others gain combat experience - and you don’t have to pay a particularly serious price."

"I think you have already felt it," Heathcliff said calmly. "When you were fighting with other people with a French stick, you didn't feel that the system was controlling your body, right? This is because the motion assistance system is not online. Correct the reason for your attack."

"...No wonder I always felt something strange when I was killing monsters before. Sometimes I even felt that my body and brain were fighting each other, just like Zhou Botong taught me online how to use Buddha's Wrath Fire Lotus and Buddha's Wrath Tanglian at the same time. So weird..."

Su Hong squinted at the table in front of him, and his fingers made a rhythmic sound on the table - this was proof that he was thinking about something in his mind, but the words in his mouth did not stop.

"I don't mean to refuse, but there must be some among these [-] players who have already been exposed to fighting training such as Sanda and Kendo in real life, and are more suitable for such a novice trainer position than me, so my question Yes...why didn't you find them to be the novice trainers of your Blood Alliance Knights, instead of me, a wild guy like me who only had experience in street fighting?"

——At this time, even Heathcliff, who always had a poker face, could not help but give him a speechless expression.

"...Because they don't have as much free time as you."

33. "Fish, and then meet the fishing uncle"

The sun is shining brightly and the breeze is blowing, making it a good time to bask in the sun.

Su Hong came to the haystack in the shade of a big tree, took out a pillow from his backpack, placed it on the trunk of the tree, and sat down happily. Then he took out the newspaper from his backpack, flicked it, and then continued his leisurely life.

"Ah, now the team has conquered the 30th floor. You have worked really hard..." Su Hong expressed his sincere emotion, "This year is like being cut off by the Crimson King. Happy times are always there. It’s so fleeting.”

It has been nearly a year since he was introduced to this world by Keima Keima, but his life has not changed much.

In the first half of the year, Su Hong added the work of training novices to his daily work of supplying supplies, setting up stalls, spawning monsters, performing, and brushing up his tailoring level—but this job of training novices only lasted about half a year.

In half a year of fighting each other with French sticks, all the novice players who should have started training have also started training, and the players who should not have started training have also turned into players of the life and manufacturing department. This has also made Su Hong's job completely useless. He became a legitimate salary thief in the Blood Alliance Knights.

Even if suddenly he would be kicked out of the Knights of the Blood Alliance by Kayaba Akihiko one day, it would not be surprising, it would rather be said to be a matter of course.

Of course, it is good news that the team has conquered the [-]th floor in this year. If we speculate at this speed, it is only a matter of time before we conquer the entire Aincrad.

Now the original plot of Sword Art Online has developed to a ridiculous degree due to the butterfly effect. The Knights of the Blood Alliance are now a single family and have long been beyond the control of Su Hong. Moreover, he is not so arrogant and feels that he can fight with the strength of one person. This plot has long gone astray to the [reality] of who knows where——

So he still lived his own life peacefully and comfortably, not worrying about the problems of the strategy team and the floor BOSS, nor whether the original plot that went astray was good or bad for the final result.

After all, children and grandchildren will have their own blessings. Worrying so much is just putting pressure on yourself.

Because he is too weak and has no strength... Hee hee, I'm just pretending.

After all, so-called human beings must face up to their own weakness and powerlessness!Only by accepting your own weakness can you transform into the invincible Kamen Rider Jeanne d'Arc——

No, do it again.

People, you must understand that human abilities have limits. The more scheming you are, the more you will stumble in unexpected places - well, that's what it means anyway, just mean it.

Su Hong's current life is more enjoyable than working. He can do what he wants to do anytime and anywhere, and he has no worries about food and clothing.

Work is all about passing the time. You can do it when you think about it and don’t do it when you don’t want to do it. The most important thing is to provide for retirement and enjoy life. It is simply more important than the master of Sanhe.

"The weather is so nice..."

Su Hong sighed like a retiree.

Although he understood that the weather in Aincrad was simulated by the program, in terms of experience, reality was much worse than virtual reality.

Su Hong has never seen the night sky full of stars since he became self-aware, and he basically sits in his room studying or surfing the Internet. Coupled with the city's air quality, weather environment and outdoor temperature, there are also It depends on whether God opens his eyes or not. In terms of experience alone, it is not better than it is now.

From this point of view, the best future for mankind is the mechanical ascension of flesh and blood pain. Jiejiejiejie...

While Su Hong was amusing himself with his imagination, a middle-aged man holding a fishing rod came from a distance. He also took a look at the middle-aged man and was also attracted by the middle-aged man. People attract attention.

"Hey! Uncle! Are you going to fish?"

The uncle was a little surprised and said, "Oh - oh, I'm going fishing."

"Fishing, uncle, you really enjoy it... Is this the difference in age and experience?" Su Hong stood up with a smile, "Where can I learn fishing skills?"

The uncle said in surprise, "Do you also want to learn fishing?"

"That's natural," Su Hong said confidently, "How could I say no to something that can relax me for a whole day and also get benefits."

"That's it," the uncle looked at Su Hong and said after hesitating for a few times, "Then I'll take you to a place where you learn fishing skills? It's not very far from here."

"Very helpful."

Su Hong quickly ran to the uncle's side and accompanied him to the place where he was learning skills. On the way, he was bored and talked to the uncle who looked to be in his 50s or [-]s.

"By the way, at your age, uncle still plays such trendy online games? Ah, by the way, my name is Su Hong, and I am a foreigner."

"You can call me Nishida," the uncle said helplessly, "I was originally the security director of the Tokyo network line. When the server was launched, I just planned to go online to see if there were any problems with the network environment of the game project I was responsible for, but there was no problem. Thinking about what happened to me - it's more like bad luck than it's fashionable."

"Yeah, yeah. I can understand, I can understand."

Su Hong nodded sympathetically.

Originally, he was just chatting and fishing on the Internet, but he didn't expect to be caught by Keima Katsuragi, who gave him a so-called [system] and threw him into this world.

But now this so-called [system] is so complete that you can't even see it, and don't continue to say that it is like the system flow protagonist in some novel website, who has been precisely customized by the system daddy, the cheap father-in-law, or the system wife. Poverty alleviation.

Obviously many people treat the Internet like a cesspool. If they have the slightest disagreement, they will turn into a dump truck and create crazily on the Internet. People who are more crazy than him are in the comment areas of major video websites. It's everywhere - he fishes in accordance with basic laws and logical theories.

Let’s not talk about [I am a shovel] and [people’s physiques cannot be generalized], let’s just talk about the female boxers who attack crazily on Weibo and the Internet trolls who promote all kinds of extremism. Which one is not as good as him? Is the little Zhihu fishing guy more important?

But he was captured as a young man by Keima Katsuragi, and they wanted him to debut as Truman in the new century for the audience who didn't know where to come from to judge him [live broadcast].

Not to mention anything else, just talking about this point alone, it is indeed a magical reality. It is similar to the magical reality of Uncle Nishida who "was only responsible for his own duties but suffered unreasonable disasters."

Because Su Hong sympathized with Uncle Xitian's experience, he couldn't help but become a close sister for once.

"Actually, if you think about it from another perspective, there is nothing bad about living here - after all, if you don't fight monsters and upgrade, then there will be no annoying bosses in this game, and there will be no subordinates who cause trouble for you every day, and there will be no need. You have to work overtime to complete the work, and there is no annoying Party A. You can do what you like every day. If you don't like doing your own thing, don't do it. You don't even need to think too much about three meals a day and Regarding life’s problems, you can be free to enjoy your time – actually this is quite good.”

"Although it's true to say that, I still have a family in real life...in my heart I worry about my wife and children."

"Rather than worrying about this kind of thing, shouldn't the top priority be to consider what kind of life you are leading in the game? In real life, what wives and children worry about is whether the uncle is living well in the game?"

"Hahaha...that's exactly what I said."

34. No mole!Let’s have some adult talk!

The cool breeze in the forest blows across your face, the leaves rustle in the forest, and the gurgling stream keeps telling stories of fish and shrimp between the sound of the clear spring and the flowing stream.

"By the way, Christmas is coming soon——"

Uncle Xitian's sigh woke up Su Hong, who was enjoying all this as white noise. It also made the sleepiness flowing in his mind go away a little, and his eyes followed Uncle Xitian who wanted to say something but couldn't. On the face that sighs with uneasiness.

"Christmas, what day is it?"

"December 25th," Uncle Xitian looked at Su Hong unexpectedly, "I thought a young man like you would pay more attention to foreign festivals than me? I didn't expect you to be quite old-fashioned."

"Because in my country, almost every holiday has become Valentine's Day, and I am a young man who has been single until now, so there is no point in paying attention to the holiday."

Su Hong stretched out a hand and patted his cheek to wake himself up.

"But if Uncle Nishida is paying attention to this... it should be because he is your child."

"Yeah, I am Santa Claus after all."

"It sounds like a lot of trouble, being Santa Claus for your own children," Su Hong sighed from the bottom of his heart, "It's not easy for adults too."

"It's not easy being an adult..."

"Fortunately, I am a single person," Su Hong said with a smile. "Love and family don't sound like troublesome things that can easily lead to good results. For me, it's better now."

"Although it is not easy, I am still very happy," Nishida said with a smile. "At least my relationship with my wife and children is not as full of conflicts as the family dramas broadcast on TV Asahi."

"I heard before that the cheating rate among Japanese women is very high, right?"

"You kid... you are obviously the most energetic and active age in your life, but like middle-aged people like us who have been through most of our lives, you feel that your life is almost like this."

"I'm different from those ninjas who talk about being flat on the Internet every day, but still have the ambition to be a master in their hearts... I really accept that my talents are not enough, and accept that I may be beaten by others in the future. You are a loser who laughs crazily at the misery of life.”

Su Hong said casually.

"I used to feel that my whole life was just to be a tool for the big boss, and to get by with a salary that was neither too high nor too low, so I tried to find a job and integrate into society - and then I found that my colleagues were always trying to blame others. The leaders' flattery was at odds with each other, the boss above me always gave out orders that made people feel stupid, and the big boss of the company made ridiculous remarks all day long. In the end, I found that I didn't even have the ability to tolerate stupid people like ordinary people. I have to admit that I am a failure more than the average person."

After hearing this, Uncle Nishida sighed, "It would be great if you could meet someone you are willing to pay any price to love in the future. It would be great if you could meet someone."

"I don't have any high expectations for this. After all, I don't think I'm so lucky to go -"

The float on Su Hong's fishing rod shook a few times and sank to the bottom of the water, which made him forget about his unspoken words and concentrate on fighting with the fish's IQ and physical strength. Finally, he roared and suddenly exerted his strength, and then Pull the fat fish out of the stream.

"Pokémon! GET?daze!"

"..."

——Only at this time can you show your vitality as a young man...

Xitian smiled and shook his head. He no longer looked at Su Hong who happily unhooked the fish from the hook and threw it into the system column. Instead, he focused his attention on the fish bobber floating up and down in the stream, catching the fish bobber and sinking it completely. The moment you hit the bottom of the water.

Su Hong did not bother Uncle Xitian at this critical moment. He just hung up the bait, flicked the fishing rod in his hand, and then threw the float into the water. However, he suddenly recalled something.

Ah, it seems that Kirito in the original plot of "Sword Art Online" got a prop that can resurrect people from the Christmas event BOSS... But that prop seems to have some restrictions, and it can't help Kirito, and then... Kirito threw this prop to his good friend.

I don’t know if the current Kirito has ever encountered a girl who was killed in a group.

- That's it.

Su Hong brought up the friend bar of the system, clicked Argo to open the private chat window, and also adjusted the input method on the keyboard that appeared in front of him, and typed Chinese.

After all, the reason why he can communicate with me is adaptive language, and he doesn't know how to type Japanese at all. He is an illiterate who can listen but not write. If he wants to have a private chat, he must send a message in Chinese.

Su Hong, who is good at finding logical loopholes, naturally knew how to use different language systems to express his meaning, so he sent such a message.
