"Am I a master?"

"No, I'm just a coward."

"Behemoth has been successfully killed."

“Not enough, far from enough”

"Become stronger, I want to become stronger, become stronger than anyone else, until the weak me disappears...disappears...until..."

Lying on the bed, Shino Asada untied the [amuspheere], still thinking about the battle just now.

She won that battle.

Yes, at the last moment, she jumped from the top of the nearly collapsed building and completed the killing blow without Behemoth realizing it.

the end

Like a declaration of victory, she took down Hecatell, known as the goddess of the underworld, and Behemoth was unable to hide from this shot and turned into pieces and scattered, but the shock and fear on her face were deeply impressed.

In Shino's heart.

"It turns out it's not as strong as I thought..."

...

"Ah? Brother is leaving Alo...?"

"What, how many things are you hiding from me!!"

"Brother Ling Xiao will come back, right? Don't leave us behind!"

Su Chen, who had just finished announcing that he was going to work, had not had time to take a breath when Liz and the others in front of him started to ask questions like a cauldron was exploding.

"Well, it's nothing serious. I just went to investigate other vrmmo worlds. It was mainly requested by the guy from the Ministry of Internal Affairs and Communications. It's just a commission. I'll transfer it back immediately after it's over!"

Su Chen wiped the cold sweat from his forehead. Sure enough, it was very troublesome to explain this kind of thing. Facing the suspicious looks from Liz and others, he had no choice but to explain with a dry smile.

As for the content of the investigation and the real purpose of the trip, he didn't reveal much. After all, he didn't want to involve them.

Of course, ninety-nine percent of the topic of "death guns" is the product of rumors, and no one knows the real situation. It is really impossible to believe that such a thing can happen in a virtual world that causes the death of people in the real world.

"This is the real power, the real power. Foolish humans, keep this name and fear in your heart. I call this gun the Death Gun."

When he first heard this recording, Su Chen felt an inexplicable throbbing. It was not the crazy remarks of this person, but the unique voice, that uncomfortable voice that seemed to have been somewhere before.

I've heard it, but now I can't remember it.

Perhaps when Su Chen heard this recording, only two words "sand sculpture" came to his mind, but after experiencing sao and alo, he did not dare to make any conclusions. After all, there were two corpses as a warning.

............

Time: December 13

"Hey, Kazuto, why does this place look so familiar to me?"

Taking off his motorcycle helmet, Su Chen looked at the large hospital in front of him and muttered.

"...Hey, isn't this the place where we went to the hospital to recover our strength after being freed from SAO? You won't forget it, right?"

Looking at the confused Su Chen, Kiritani Kazuto felt a little helpless. This guy was really hopeless. He didn't remember anything other than games.

"...Eh, eh! It's... like this, I just said why it looks so familiar, haha..."

After a friendly exchange with Kikuoka a week ago, they negotiated to enter GGO today. The location is this hospital. According to Kikuoka's explanation, this was for the sake of their safety. Before anything was done properly,

necessary means before explanation.

Although it was a bit troublesome, the two agreed.

After Kirito parked his motorcycle, the two arrived at the entrance of the hospital.

The hospital's unique smell of disinfectant hit their faces as soon as they entered the door. Due to time constraints, there were not many people in the hospital at the moment.

"Third floor, Ward 3025."

According to the latest news sent by Kikuoka on their mobile phones, the two began to search. After a while, they stopped in front of a door with the house number 3025 and no patient's name.

After looking at each other, Su Chen nodded and stretched out his hand to knock on the door.

The door to the room suddenly opened, and a woman wearing a nurse's hat and a white uniform appeared in front of them.

"..."

The nurse was stunned for a moment and then looked at the two of them with a smile.

"Ah, you...Hello, Miss An Qi, long time no see..."

The embarrassed Kirito quickly recovered and lowered his head shyly. The nurse in front of him had taken care of him during his rehabilitation training and was also a relatively familiar person.

"Sister An Qi, I haven't seen you for a long time. I never thought I would have to be taken care of by you again this time."

Although Su Chen was a little surprised that it was Miss Anqi, but seeing Kirito's subtle expression, he understood that it was indeed Kikuoka's 'careful arrangement'.

As expected, An Qi smiled slightly.

"I heard about it from the glasses officer. It seems that you two went to investigate virtual networks for the government? Really, it's not even a year since you came back. It's really embarrassing, so he wanted to take charge of Kiritani-kun and

During Su Chenjun's rehabilitation training, I have to be responsible for checking the monitors and so on, so it's my turn to be on duty here today. I seem to have gotten through to the head nurse. It really feels like a state power. Well, in short, during this period,

Let’s take care of each other again, two handsome guys.”

"..."

He was really cunning. At this moment, Su Chen couldn't help but have a new understanding of Kikuoka.

"...Why didn't the eye official come?"

"Well, it seems that something is going on, but it seems that I have something to explain."

Taking out the slightly folded piece of paper from his pocket and handing it to the two of them, Nurse Anqi nodded and said.

Kirito took the note, swallowed his saliva, and unfolded it gently.

"Please send the report to the old address. Various expenses will be paid together with the reward after the mission is completed. Remember to ask for it. In addition, although you are in the same room with a beautiful nurse, you two should not let your young impulses run wild."

Although he couldn't see Kikuoka's expression, Kirito could read between the lines of this man who was too obscene, crumpled the note into a ball and put it in his bag.

Su Chen looked a little weird, and secretly glanced at an unsuspecting nurse who was smiling at her. Tsk, Kikuoka really went too far with his joke, but he could arrange for Miss Anqi to be here.

Not to mention, it’s quite detailed.

"What's wrong?"

"No, it's just some nonsense. Let's connect to the Internet now."

Looking at Miss Anqi with a surprised expression, Kirito replied with a smile, while Su Chen stared at Kirito in amusement and made a tsk-tsk sound.

Although Nurse Anqi was a little suspicious of the two people's strange reactions after reading the letter, after all, it was not something that needed to be understood, so she simply nodded indifferently.

"Well, the equipment is ready."

An exaggerated display machine was placed next to the hospital bed, which was used to monitor the heartbeat, and on the bed was an amusphere that the two of them were familiar with.

It is worth mentioning that although amusphere can also monitor heartbeats, Kikuoka seems to have placed this machine here specifically for safety reasons.

"Okay, everything is ready, you can sneak in..."

After the testing machine was running normally, Nurse Anqi made a gesture gracefully, and a crisp voice reached the ears of the two of them.

"Well, please take care of me."

"Well, feel free to go."

Empty his mind, Su Chen smiled at An Qi and slowly closed his eyes.

"link start"

...

In a simple cabin, the girl was staring at the mirror aimlessly, or to be precise, staring at the figure in the mirror.

He has a thin body, his bangs are slightly stuck to his forehead, his eyes look a little big because of the lenses, he has a small braid on each side of his cheeks, and his fair complexion makes people feel a little malnourished.

"As long as Shino becomes stronger, then I can also become stronger, so..."

As he murmured softly, Asada Shino's eyes showed confusion.

Can you really...really become stronger? Can you really be saved when you are so weak in reality?

Definitely, definitely possible. If it's Shino, there's absolutely no problem.

It's just not enough, not strong enough.

Defeat all the stronger guys and win the championship in this bob.

At that time...it should be...ok...

Slowly lying on the bed, putting on the amusphere and plugging it in, Asada Shino closed her eyes, exhaled slowly, and whispered the password to enter another world.
Chapter completed!
