Chapter 94: Church in the woods

Chapter 94
The third floor of Aincrad, Zimford, the sky is set, sunny.
Today is a sunny day. The three huge yew trees in the central street support the sky. The warm breeze blows by, and the leaves sway gently. Below it is a fairy-style tree house and a Western fantasy Victorian-style building.
On the branch of a tree, there is a white double-storey hut, which is the headquarters of the trade union "Car of Dawn". Akatsuki’s active figure on the front line of the raiders soon spread to Aincrad, "Slaying Ji" Neet Ji, and "Shuangshu Suanshu" have such a reputation as blank, and they are praised by good deeds. Three people standing on top of SAO.
Such a guild is naturally rushed by countless players, but Akatsuki never recruits outsiders. There was a player who asked for a day outside the door to join, but was eventually rejected. Moreover, most of the members' whereabouts are secret, and apart from the time of the strategy, they are all seen by the dragon. Therefore, Xiaozhi's car is also called by the players as the "world that only the strong know", artificially given a layer of mystery.
A sunny breeze blowing in from the wooden window, Asuna's hair swayed gently, her eyebrows frowned, and she looked at the invitation letters of the major guilds on the Koan, saying that she hoped to unite the top combat power. , To form a'Raiders Group'.
Aincrad has been able to form guilds from the third level. The first to take action is Linde and Tooth King. They formed the Dragon Knights and Aincrad Liberation Team, respectively. Because of the first step, most of the players who are active on the frontline are gathered. However, it was not because of these two guilds that made Asuna frowned, but the currently unknown ‘Knights of the Blood Alliance’.
According to "Sword Art Online", the Blood Alliance Knights may develop into the strongest guild in the future, and they may join this guild in the future. And its president is the instigator of this death game, Akihiko Kayaba, the mad scientist who brought despair and death to Aincrad.
After involving 10,000 innocent people in terrorist activities caused only by interest, Asuna could not forgive this behavior after she understood the whole story. How can you forgive? I am imprisoned in a virtual world, facing the threat of death at any time. At the same time, there are still 10,000 families that may be shattered, and the network of sadness formed by this spreads infinitely.
And you said, "This is just a dream I have been in since childhood"?
Go to hell!
"Do you want to refuse?" Neet Ji sat on the hospitality sofa, drinking coffee elegantly. SAO's taste simulation system is really good. Although it is impossible to reproduce the sensation of sensitive taste buds in detail, it is enough to satisfy the taste effect of ordinary people.
Neet Ji put down the cup, "Anyway, even if we only rely on us, we can also attack the boss alone. Only weak people like to get together."
The freshness of the first login to the game has faded. Neet Ji now spends much less time on SAO than when she first started. At this point in the game, you have to ‘see it’.
"No." Although struggling in her eyes, Asuna said decisively: "According to the current strategy speed, an average of one layer every 3.5 days, it is still too risky. And the more difficult it is, the more difficult it is."
Asuna will not forget what Nagato Yuki said, and must update Aincrad's data again within one year, that is, add a hundred layers, otherwise the substantive information will invade reality and cause a'crash phenomenon'. Although it feels absurd, just like a novel, Asuna no longer doubts the authenticity of Da Moe God's words.
If a strategy group can be formed, then the speed of the strategy will inevitably increase.
At this moment, she showed the judgment under the elite education and the decisiveness as the president, "I will pass the meeting where the strategy team is formed."
"Come on, then." Neet Ji said softly, then slowly got up and walked out the door, "But dealing with other guilds and this kind of thing will fall on your shoulders."
"Well, I understand." Asuna nodded.
"Then I'm going to the practice area first. If it's just a boss, I can come anytime." Neet turned his head and smiled.
......
Type month.
The stone pillar bridge erected on the blue waves, the train rumbling through with black smoke.
Joan and Sakura rode an old diesel train from France to Slovakia, and then all the way south to the Republic of Macedonia. The sky was clear and verdant along the way, and the air was full of mud and sunshine.
Today's ancient saints are familiar with things like ticket purchases. Although the black cat and the waste angel taught her many unnecessary things, thanks to their blessings, Jeanne has begun to possess some common sense knowledge.
The scenery outside the window began to undulate, the mountains and rivers were endless, the beautiful lakes were as clear as mirrors, and the Feiteng waterfalls were high above the sky.
"Wow! It's beautiful." Sakura leaned on the window. The inaccessible Orthodox monasteries and ancient mosques dotted it, making it even more pure and dusty, like a world away.
"Grape cheese is in a small town in Gostivar district. After we get off the bus, we can walk there, or take a car, but there is still some distance to go by ourselves. Can you stick to it, Sakura?"
Joan couldn't help admiring Sakura's abundant stamina. If it were other children, she would have complained about such a long journey. Perhaps interest played a role in the high spirit? Joan is unknown, but the beautiful scenery and Sakura's smile along the way calmed her mood.
"Well, I heard that the wine here is also very good." Kozakura turned her head, her clear eyes looked at Jeanne of Arc happily.
"You'll get drunk." Joan laughed. There is no ‘no underage drinking’ in her mind.
"It doesn't matter, sister will protect me." The girl smiled innocently.
After getting off the train, Joan took Sakura in the car and got off at the end of a damaged road. The two of them walked on the path in the forest, under the soft soil under their feet, which is a natural feeling that is completely unexperienced when stepping on the concrete or asphalt road.
The road has not yet been completed, the sky has dimmed, a few scattered stars have hung up in the night, and there are occasional calls from the forest that do not know what animals they are.
It seems that we can't make it today, so let's find a place to stay, Joan thought.
Passing the corner of the trees, a Romanesque-style church is hidden in the woods. The church looks a bit old. The years have carved historical mottles on it, and several windows are faintly lit with lights.
At the gate, sitting a little girl with a small body and fair skin. She has shining silver hair like a starry sky and golden pupils. The girl stared at the sky blankly, not knowing what she was thinking. Seeing the arrival of Joan of Arc and Sakura, she shrank timidly and ran into the church.
"Father, priest, someone is coming."
