Time passes day by day.

For most people in this world, this is just a normal day, but for some, it is not the case.

A young young man wearing glasses pushed open the door and rushed into the room, and came to the computer desk, which was already full of people. Most of them were wearing glasses. At this moment, they were nervous and looked at the screen in front of them with red faces.

"The 99th floor is here, it's here to the 99th floor!!"

"It's still a little bit, it's a little bit! Can they do it?!"

"The Dark Moon Sword is OK, the Dark Nebula and the Knights of the Red may need to be repaired for a few days..."

The programmer sitting at the table was so excited that he was almost typing the keyboard into a piano.

These people are not ordinary people who are members of the Sao incident countermeasures headquarters. After Kayaba Akihiko created this horrifying incident, the government immediately organized a department specifically for tracking and managing the progress and follow-up of the incident.

As the world's first fully stealth game, no one expected that a game would attract the attention of the whole world. After the sao incident broke out, not only was the complete stealth technology itself strictly prohibited by various countries, but also various social discussions also began. The pressure on the ao countermeasures headquarters is huge. You should know that before this, although the complete stealth technology was initially used in game entertainment, it could also play an effect in military, medical and health care, depending on the situation. And just when everyone was about to create a new future era, this vicious incident seemed to be a blow and almost fooled everyone.

If you want to say it, it is like humans built the first nuclear power plant, but it exploded just after the construction started trial operation. The consequences and impacts of it are naturally self-evident.

The problem now depends on the "post-handling" and "number of casualties" of the disaster.

Although more than a year has passed since then, and it seems that the outside media has rarely played news about this matter again, everyone is very clear that not paying attention does not mean that the matter is over. If this matter does not end well, then it is the real trouble.

But to be honest, they can actually do very little.

Akihiko Kayaba is a genius scientist. The system he designed has almost no loopholes to drill. At first, the countermeasures headquarters wanted to force an intrusion, but later, like Fang Zheng, chose to give up. After all, the error caused by intrusion into the main system is likely to cause the entire world to collapse completely. By that time, if ten thousand people die, then they will be finished.

Not to mention that among these victims, there are not only ordinary players, but also diplomats and some family descendants. The forces behind these people are not easy to mess with!

At the beginning, the countermeasures headquarters decided to find the mastermind behind Kayaba Akihiko and force him to release the others.

Later... Kayaba Akihiko was found, but the person was already dead.

According to the autopsy report and investigation results, it was finally determined that Akihiko Kayaba had a sudden accident while using the complete stealth device, which caused the pulse signal to suddenly increase, and a violent impact on the brain was no less than that of a diamond drill. In the end, the doctor gave the result was brain death.

When everyone in the countermeasures headquarters was also stunned when they heard this news.

The culprit is over, what should I do?

Although it is a good idea to hang Kayaba Akihiko's body out and make the angry victims' families whip the corpse, this cannot solve the fundamental problem!

Although some people suggested sending a group of people to help those players solve problems, this opinion was eventually rejected. First of all, the game world is different from the real world. There is an old Chinese saying that heroes violate the ban with martial arts, which is the most appropriate place in the game world.

At that time, players were generally around 30 or 40 levels. Although they could not reach the level of East Evil and West Poison, they were at least stronger than those who were flying on grass or white strips in the waves. If they wanted to send people in, even if the active soldiers were in, they would be the level of the government soldiers. Any thief could beat him up.

Not to mention that the danger is so great, who would want to go in and die?

In the end, it depends on the players themselves.

Fortunately, except for the first period, there were not many casualties in most of the following period. Because of this, the countermeasures headquarters also focused more on taking care of the victims to avoid accidents - they could not interfere in the game, but if someone suffered casualties due to actual factors, then it was their responsibility.

There are 10,000 players in total, and it has been almost two years since then. Until now, the number of deaths has been frozen at 853... Relatively speaking, this is a very exciting number. This means that if everything goes well, most players can return to the real world alive.

If everything goes well.

But now, what is in front of them is the last difficulty.

"Is there really no way we can adjust the boss's strength?"

Looking at the boss attributes of the 100th level, many people looked solemn, and some people were unwilling to raise this cliché question again.

"no."

Another technician shook his head.

"We all know that the complete stealth device uses brain waves to verify the account. Now that Kashiba Akihiko is dead, no one can log in to the developer's account. It will have an unknown impact on the external modification of the cardinal... For now, we can only watch it."

"Why…………"

Hearing this, everyone sighed. Although they had held meetings many times and were very clear about what they should and should not do, now that they are at this critical moment, they can only watch outside... and feel a little uncomfortable.

And at this moment, someone suddenly asked timidly.

"You said...in case they failed..."

"Shut up!"

“……………………………”

No one wants to be a crow, especially in the current situation.

In fact, this kind of worry is not only the real people, but in the game world, this feeling is even stronger.

The town of the beginning.

The starting town is still very lively, but the atmosphere seems a bit tense. Players often take to the streets, or gather in the park, discussing with each other.

"Have you heard that? The strategy team has reached the 99th floor."

"Does that mean we may be able to go out? No problem?"

"It shouldn't be there. Do you think they haven't been going well all the time?"

"But if..."

"Go and go, don't say it if you can't speak!"

Some are worried, some are excited, and some are nervous.

They have been in this world for almost two years, and many people have long been accustomed to life here and even forgot what reality looks like. But now, with Fang Zheng and others hitting up layer by layer, until the ninety-nine floor... others have gradually reacted.

Wait, what are we doing here?

It seems that it's not a game.

By the way, we are trapped here.

As long as we open up a hundred layers, we can go out!

Thinking of this, everyone began to worry about gains and losses again. Of course, they hope that Fang Zheng and his group could successfully pass the level. But what if they fail?

What if?

At present, in the world of Ain Grandet, the three most powerful guilds are the Dark Moon Sword, the Dark Nebula and the Red Knights. In fact, after reaching the 90th floor, the bosses on each floor are made by a three-party joint strategy. During this period, the Dark Nebula and the Red Knights suffered combat reductions in the 95th, the 98th and the 99th floors respectively, and the next one hundred floors... No one knows what the ending will be.

If they are destroyed, then...will others still have a chance to leave this world?

No one knows.

In fact, even the Dark Moon Sword itself didn't know it.

"call……………"

Looking at Yingliri who was already asleep beside her, Fang Zheng stretched out his hand, gently stroked her cheek, tidied up Yingliri's hair, and then he got up and left Yingliri's room.

As the boss finally got closer, the pressure on the members of the Dark Moon Sword became greater and greater. Yingliri even had to secretly and warmly sleep with Fang Zheng at night every day. Fang Zheng was not unaware of this. The end point was close to her. If she succeeded, it would be heaven, and if she failed, it would be hell.

Even Kabaili, who is always lazy and looks like a salted fish, rarely shows a serious expression. She even learned to organize herself. You should know that Kabaili has always been extremely loose before, and is the type of person who is too lazy to comb his hair when he is messy, takes a shower and simmers, and then lie on the bed and starts rolling.

Now, she has actually started combing her hair, tidying her instruments, and has started practicing hard every day.

To be honest, this really surprised Fang Zheng, but it was expected.

Such pressure is much greater than that of the college entrance examination.

After all, you can still repeat the exam if you fail the college entrance examination.

After leaving Yingriri's room, Fang Zheng walked around the base, looked at Yui who was sleeping with Ester, and greeted Sophie, who was still wandering around in the middle of the night. He confirmed that everything was normal in the guild, and then returned to his room.

However, what surprised Fang Zheng was that when he came to the door of the room, he accidentally saw Asuna and the black cat.

"Asuna? Black Cat?"

Looking at the two people standing at their door, Fang Zheng raised his eyebrows.

"What are you doing here if you don't go to rest?"

“……………………………”

Hearing Fang Zheng's inquiry, Asuna and the Black Cat looked at each other with red faces, and finally Asuna spoke with a tough forehead.

"That...we... have some things, I want to be with you, Mr. Fang Zheng..."

“…………………”

Looking at the slightly red cheeks and dodging eyes, Fang Zheng had almost guessed what they were going to do. So he didn't say anything, but reached out and pushed open the door.

"So, come in."
