The World Tree has been a hotly discussed topic among all players since the server was launched. The reason is that it involves reincarnation as a light elf and enjoys the unlimited right to stay in the air.

Flying in the Fairy World has been criticized by players for a long time. Anyone who plays this game wants to become an Elf of Light, and if you want to become an Elf of Light, you must break through the ultimate copy of the World Tree.

No one has climbed to the top, and no one knows what the top of the World Tree looks like, whether it is magnificent or filled with fairy spirit.

Curious players tried every means to explore, but in the end they only learned about the scenery at the tip of the iceberg. The top of the World Tree has always maintained a sense of mystery, making it daunting in the face of the chasm-like mission.

"laugh"

A meteor-like sword light penetrated the knight's encirclement and plunged into the huge circular door. The splashed dust dissipated, and a young man slowly stood up. It was Kirito who had just broken through the encirclement, enduring the extreme speed brought by him.

Feeling the burning pain in his soul, he finally got one step closer to Asuna.

"Yui."

Hearing Kirito's voice, the elf got out of his pocket and landed briskly on the round stone door at Kirito's feet. He stretched out his little hand and began to explore silently. After a moment, the elf showed a humane expression of frustration and said in a deep voice.

.

"Dad, this door is not locked due to mission conditions, but because of the administrator privileges added to the system."

"...what happened?"

Kirito's expression was a little flustered, and the hand holding the sword couldn't help but tremble.

"Players will never be able to open this stone door!"

Hearing this news, Kirito's face turned pale and he couldn't open it. It was not a door set by the mission, but a door that required administrator rights. Isn't this the biggest scam in ALO? This mission carries the wishes of all players.

It is actually a mirage that can never be touched.

Kirito seemed to have exhausted all his strength, his body swayed, and the hand holding the sword was a little loose. The beautiful figure that he could imagine in his heart was shattered like a mirror, and an inexplicable anger suddenly surged into his heart.

"...Everyone...has arrived here, why!!"

With a feeling of unwillingness, Kirito's expression was a little ferocious at the moment, and the guardian knights around him also looked for the sound and were indifferent. Kirito didn't even react to resist.

"boom"

A guardian knight fell and exploded in front of Kirito's eyes. The guardian knights surrounding him all transferred their hatred, as if there was a new intruder.

The young man in purple clothes flew towards Kirito, with a slight smile on his lips, and a golden light flashed in his eyes, but behind him was a dense army of guardian knights.

"Ling Xiao!!"

"Hey, Kirito, what are you waiting for? Hurry up and open the door!"

"It cannot be opened. This door has been granted permission by the system administrator. There is no..."

Su Chen frowned after hearing this. This game administrator actually set up system permissions in a place like this. Could it be that he was really doing some secret operation?

After landing with a snap, Su Chen looked at Yui beside him and suddenly thought of something.

"Card! Idiot, didn't you get a card before? Isn't that thing an access code?"

"oh oh."

Without enough time to ask how the guy in front of him managed to break through the encirclement, Kirito quickly put his left hand into his pocket and took out a metal card made of a strange material. Although the surface was ordinary, it still gave people the feeling that it was something extraordinary.

Yui immediately flew up and placed her hands on the surface of the card. Suddenly, several light strips lit up on the surface of the card, like veins, extending along Yui's little hand and into her body, and then Yui's whole body exuded a strange halo.

.

"Rewriting transmission code"

"activation"

Yui brought the hand that touched the card back into contact with the stone door. Code-like characters were reflected in her eyes, and a golden halo emitted from her whole body. There was a click, a heavy sound, and the stone door slowly cracked as if it had been activated.

A strong golden light emitted from the middle of the gap, and fluid lines like lines extended from Yui's hands. As the crack in the middle of the stone door gradually expanded, the entire stone door opened.

At the same time as the gate was opened, all the guardian knights stopped attacking and dispersed with strange screams.

"Teleportation begins, hold on tight."

As Yui's whole body emitted a strong white light, the two of them were teleported into the glowing door.

...

"vomit"

Just as Kirito regained consciousness, he heard the sound of vomiting in his ears. When he saw someone holding on to the wall, he shook his head helplessly. It seemed that this guy had committed another old habit and stopped eating as soon as he teleported.

"Hmph, I just forgot to restrain myself. You didn't see what happened just now, did you, Kirito?"

"..."

Looking speechlessly at Su Chen who was talking to himself, Kirito began to look around at the surrounding environment. There seemed to be a passage in front of him, but he couldn't tell where it led because he couldn't open the map.

"Where is Yui?"

"...I don't know, the navigation map information is completely unusable here."

Yui was a little confused.

"Then...do you know where Asuna is?"

"Well, it's not far away, and Qi...very close!!"

Yui's eyes suddenly lit up, and she quickly stood up and ran in one direction without looking back. Kirito looked a little panicked and hurriedly caught up with him. After running a few steps, he found that Su Chen was still staying in the same place.

Without too much explanation, Su Chen waved his hands and said with a smile.

"You go first, I'll be there soon."

"Then be careful."

"Um."

Su Chen let out a long sigh of relief as he watched Kirito leave, and slowly moved his head towards the opposite route to Kirito. It seemed that something was waiting for him there. This feeling began to exist when he approached the World Tree.

And the feeling became stronger and stronger, and his curiosity gradually grew with this feeling.

Walking on the monotonous and undecorated circular passage, Su Chen muttered a little. The scene in front of him was too inconsistent. One second he was in a different world of swords and magic, and the next second it was like he was in a different world.

The real world is normal.

Su Chen didn't have a navigation system. He was relying on the directions marked in his mind. Although he didn't know exactly how long he should walk, he just followed the feeling and walked for about a few minutes. Two door-shaped partitions blocked the way.

His way to go.

"Huh~"

After seeing the green button on the side, Su Chen subconsciously breathed a sigh of relief. After all, this passage really made him feel a little bored. He even began to doubt whether there was an end to this passage.

After passing through the door, what appeared in front of Su Chen was an intersection, with a poster-like thing hanging on the wall on one side.

"Lab map?"

Looking at the information in the picture, Su Chen had a general understanding. First of all, the area he was in now belonged to the outermost area c. According to the direction pointed in his heart, the approximate location should be area a, and he had to pass through various areas in the middle.

Plant data rooms, monitoring areas and other places.

Looking at the words "Experimental Subject Storage" marked next to Area A, Su Chen couldn't help but feel a chill in his heart. It seemed that there were a lot of tricks in it. The data room and the monitoring room were simply an experimental base.

"What on earth is this guy doing? Research, what on earth is he researching?"

Ever since he heard Kirito saying that Shimen had been given system permissions, Su Chen had a bad feeling. Thinking about Asuna, he could already conclude that this so-called alo system administrator was definitely not a good person.

Bird, and must still be plotting something.

Su Chen felt more and more that he had to quickly investigate this so-called 'Experimental Subject Reservoir'. Su Chen was quite concerned about his premonition, especially the feeling that made him vaguely uneasy.

Su Chen walked quickly along the direction indicated on the map. After passing through countless circular metal doors, he finally came to a huge rectangular area.

In front of the area is a pure white door. There is a slight gap in the door but it is not closed. There is a sign hanging in the upper left corner with the words "Experimental Subject Storage" written on it. Su Chen checked the left and right and found that there was no such thing.

Seeing signs of people, he slowly pushed open the ajar door.

...

Kirito stared blankly at the scene in front of him, a little sluggishly. Unexpectedly, the scene before him after passing through those strange passages was just a pile of dry leaves, winding branches and tree trunks that continued to reach the top.

"There's nothing at all, a city in the sky or something like that..."

Although Kirito still had the slightest idea of ​​triggering an event after breaking through the gate, the reality in front of him told him that the lies were all false lies.

Standing at the top of the so-called World Tree, Kirito sighed solemnly, with a somewhat unbearable expression. When he thought of telling Suguha the truth, everything that the child had imagined would disappear in an instant like a bubble. How cruel it was.

"Unforgivable..."

Just when Kirito was in a trance, his sleeve was pulled slightly. Yui looked up at Kirito worriedly.

"Well, we have to rescue Asuna first."

Kirito nodded slightly apologetically. At this moment, he retracted his sadness and anger. Saving Asuna was the purpose of his standing here.

Suppressing the impatience in his heart, Kirito walked along the huge artificial road of tree branches. His destination was the small cage on the treetop that was dazzlingly reflected by the sunset. The crisscrossing road seemed to become abnormal in Kirito's eyes.

For a long time, running, shuttling, and stepping on the stairs, the distance between the target and him was getting closer and closer, and finally he came to the location in the photo given by Agil.

A huge golden birdcage and various brightly colored potted plants cover the circle. In the center is a semicircular bed with a luxurious ceiling. Next to it is a pure white round table. A girl is burying her head on the table. Although the girl's face is not exposed,

But Kirito was extremely sure at this moment that the person in front of him was the girl in his heart that he had been pursuing, and Yui beside him was already crying.
To be continued...
