[Forever Forest] is a transitional area before the maze area on the eleventh floor, and is a hunting and training place that some players prefer.

The reason is very simple. It is a simple and difficult monster-occurring area that ordinary humans can pass through, and the environment is also very good.

First of all, [Forest of Forever] is mostly waterways, with only one dry land about seven or eight meters wide that can pass through the forest. However, there will be a huge circular site every once in a distance. On that circular site, the chance of monsters appearing will be greatly increased.

At the same time, the monster named [Little Water Demon] is not of high level, not strong attack power, and has very small risk factor. If you conduct combat training there, you don’t have to worry about being killed by monsters.

Moreover, after destroying the [Little Water Demon], it is possible to obtain their spirits. Thirty of them can be used to refine advanced medicines in the place where the props are refined.

Therefore, it is still very popular among the lower-level players. Just spend a little money to ask the intelligence house and you can know all the details.

After all, that place is well known to all players today.

Hearing Asuna's explanation, Natsume wrote down while repeating it.

The starting point of his arrival in this world was not the first floor, but the twenty-fifth floor. In this way, it was impossible to know this information and could not find where that place was.

Now, Natsume is very glad that he has not separated from Asuna, otherwise it will definitely become quite difficult.

"Can you please take me there? Quicker! The faster the better."

“What exactly happened?”

"My friend, in danger, asked me for help just now."

But that kind of place.

Thinking of this, Asuna also accelerated her pace.

The two of them seemed to be in line with each other. Since the monster could not threaten the player, there was only one possibility that the player could fall into danger.

That is—

"Killing Guild?"

Asuna said something Natsume was worried about. The two of them had already arrived at the portal and were waiting for Asuna to deal with it.

Nodded, Natsume did not deny Asuna's guess, and also told some of the previous incidents with the Killing Guild, which made Asuna's expression very heavy.

Going to the killing guild in Sao is the most unwise behavior because they are players, unlike monsters. You can monitor you at any time and find opportunities to kill you, so that you can't defend yourself.

Natsume knew this fact, but why were they in danger? Was it the last time those people?

It must be a little faster.

He urged Asuna, and in silence she confirmed a little, and after a gust of white light, the two of them teleported to the designated location.

Natsume looked at the environment in front of him, and a road leading to the depths of the forest appeared in front of him, and the road was surrounded by clear rivers.

From here, there was no light inside, only the shadow formed by the moonlight fell on the ground, turning into strange portraits.

There are almost no players in it at this moment, and many people are attracted by the news of the strategy. I want to see what the 21st floor looks like.

Since this is a monster area, Natsume brought out the Lake Sword from the warehouse, and the touch of holding it in his hand made him feel much more at ease.

No, it's not about being at ease, but about being more impatient.

The weapon in his right hand seemed to tremble a little, reflecting the silver-white moonlight blade, and some cold air was blowing.

Like Natsume, Asuna also held her weapon in her hand and ran towards Natsume.

The road was not long. In about two minutes, I saw the first circular site, with a diameter of about thirty meters and no one was left on the empty site.

Not here?

Natsume only knew that the area was displayed on it, but it did not show the detailed location. There was no way to find Natsume.

Judging from the information just now, it shouldn't be Sakurami's joke.

Not to mention her courage, Natsume, who had been with her for a while, knew that people like Sakurami could not lie, and it was purely terrifying.

Like others in [Unknown Brigade], she is also pursuing her dreams and is not a simple gamer.

After seeing that the first circular venue was not available, Natsume immediately advanced towards the second one, but on the way, a large number of [Little Water Demons] emerged from the riverside.

They are transparent all over, but the part of the head emits a faint light, and the level is seven, which poses no threat at all.

Kill it with one knife, and the transparent body divided into two disappeared immediately after it became a data fragment, leaving nothing but a little experience.

Cooperating with Asuna, he solved the [Little Water Demon] who rushed out at the fastest speed. After ignoring the five or six spirits, he came from the first circular field to the land bridge between the second field.

The land under my feet is very strong and extends into the darkness shrouded by moonlight.

At this time, Asuna approached from the side, and like her, Natsume also noticed the light directly in front of her.

It was not a golden light like sunlight, but a crystal light that was biased towards blue and white.

Natsume just rushed forward, while Asuna was paying attention to the surrounding environment to prevent being attacked by others.

After passing through the woods and stepping through the huge puddle, Natsume came to this area.

On the edge of this circular site, near the river, there is a huge fallen tree.

Under the tree, the girl holding the radiant crystal in her hand was trembling with her body.

"Hey?! Is Sakuramei?!"

Running over and holding her in his arms, Natsume shouted at Asuna.

"Take the healing crystal over! Save her first, and then I can do whatever I want!"

“It’s okay if you don’t need such a promise.”

As a guard, Asuna threw the healing crystal to Natsume.

I want to use it, but find it is completely unavailable, it cannot work, is it broken? No, it is impossible.

"No need."

The girl holding the crystal, Sakurami put her hand on Natsume's hand.

Looking up, Natsume saw Sakurami's blood bars, which had already returned to zero, which means...death.

"Sakurami has been able to persist until now thanks to the [delay potion] we have received. I want to see you instead of everyone."

"I, are you late? Others..."

"They have been killed by those damn guys, but it doesn't matter..."

Shoumi stretched out her hand and placed it on Natsume's face.

"Don't avenge for us, it's not just dangerous, because if revenge is successful, those who like that group of people will cry because of this. Sakurami, don't want to see others cry."

"I will save you, and now I will find medicine that can be resurrected."

"There is no such thing in this world, so it's okay, Natsume..."

Sakura smiled, the huge wound on her chest was slowly shattering and disappearing, and her body began to turn into fragments and digitize.

"The mantra of [Unknown Brigade] is strong, but no one can do it, and the dream is... coming to an end, but—"

Tears flowed out, and the girl's expression became very at ease.

"But if no one will cry, wouldn't that be great? So, be strong, you are the one who saved us, and you are the one who protected us... Therefore, let me convey a word to Natsume."

That's-

Tears kept flowing, and the sound of data disappearing into the air slowly came.

"It's really a blessing to be able to meet Natsume."

The young man who brought misfortune, for the first time, was told in this false world that brought happiness.
