Chapter 670 Cross-region Points Competition
Hurry up, hurry up, hurry up!
The six swords intertwined with the dazzling light of six colors in the air. The arms holding them swung so fast that they turned into afterimages, leaving streaks of blood on Toguro Ludi's body in front of him. Their master, Kirito, had a ferocious expression and said: The air is running to the extreme!
The monster's fist passed through the knife net and hit his chest, severely injuring his internal organs in an instant and making him vomit blood. However, Kirito, who used his telekinesis to defend himself in advance, did not take a step back. He just crushed the ground with his feet and let out a ferocious roar: "ah--!!"
The speed of slashing speeds up again! The six-color sword light and Toguro Ludi's blood seemed to merge to form a dazzling rainbow, which penetrated the entire competition venue and finally exploded suddenly!
The roaring shock wave overturned the ground and expanded as if without end, destroying most of the fighting field. Kirito's vision turned black and he fell to the ground.
"Kirito! Kirito-kun!"
After a long time, Asuna's call brought him back to consciousness, "Stand up! We won!"
Won……? Kirito held his chest, coughed hard and straightened up. He saw Toguro Ludi, whose chest was rotten from front to back, lying in front of him.
There is no breath left!
"finally……"
…
‘Congratulations to Kiritani Kazuto’s team for passing the Dark Martial Arts Club and winning tickets to the cross-region points competition. ’
After being teleported back to the teleportation tower on the 51st floor, his injuries healed on their own. Kirito was in a daze: "I finally won, the 54th challenge!"
Asuna cheered and hugged him next to him, and the other three teammates were also jumping for joy.
It’s really not easy.
It has been three years since the boss Togoro brothers were defeated on the 50th floor and a copy of the Dark Martial Arts Society appeared on the 51st floor.
In the past three years, he formed a team to challenge Toguro Ludi 54 times. He was killed in the first 53 times and lost 53 levels. This 54th time he finally succeeded in the challenge!
He killed Toguro Ludi in a one-on-one duel, and he, Asuna, and the others became the first team to pass the Dark Martial Arts Club!
Thinking back on the battle just now, Kirito still secretly felt that it was dangerous. If Toguro Ludi's last punch hit him, he might still be defeated this time.
He drew out the information bar to check, secretly saying that sure enough, Kendo had broken through at that moment!
Kendo: Extreme (Level 1) (0/200,000)
It's not enough. It's still far behind the mysterious team that continuously penetrated to the 80th floor two and a half years ago.
Even with teamwork, a group of 40 people would have had to defeat the Toguro brothers a year and a half ago at the earliest, let alone subsequent floors.
But having a breakthrough in swordsmanship and passing the Dark Martial Arts Club is already something worth celebrating!
After hesitating for a moment, he looked at his companions. In addition to Asuna, there was one man and two women in the five-person team.
Men are the first shield warriors Agil.
The girls are Suguha, a kendo genius who has caught up in level strength, and Metsuki, a girl with even more exaggerated kendo abilities.
"Should we try the cross-district points competition first? Or should we take a break and celebrate first?"
Several people looked at each other.
"Is everyone the same? You got the reminder that there are only three cross-region points competition opportunities every month? The other content is the same as the Dark Martial Arts Club, except that death will no longer drop the level?"
"Let's try it once. There are only nine days until the end of the month...Is that how you calculate it?"
"I don't know, but...let's try it once."
Three years, three years ago, I haven't cleared the Dark Martial Arts Club, and I have been curious about the cross-region points competition for three years.
What area does it cross?
As the captain, Kirito nodded slightly, touched the stone tablet, and chose to conduct a cross-region points competition.
‘Current cross-district ranking: 018’
‘We are waiting for teams No. 017, No. 016, and No. 015 to confirm their participation. ’
‘…’
In an instant, many system prompt messages began to scroll in front of the five people. Some of the messages made their expressions change. Agil blurted out: "For the Demon-Sealing Thread?!"
The message clearly told them that those with the highest ranking in the inter-regional points competition would get the Demon-Sealing Silk. Those ranked first, second, third, fourth and fifth would get six, five, four, three and two threads per person per month respectively, and those ranked sixth to tenth would get one.
For those below, the entire team can only get one piece per month.
This is the first time they have seen another way to obtain the Demon-Sealing Thread besides pushing the Boss. A Demon-Sealing Thread can be a human life!
"We are ranked 18th. According to the rule that new entrants are ranked last, before us... there were 17 teams that defeated Toguro Ludi?"
"We can only challenge the teams ranked within three places above us. The higher you win, the more points you will get and your ranking will increase..."
"Even counting the 'mysterious team', even if they can have 10 people and split into two teams to pass the level, there are at least 15 teams here that belong to other 'regional servers'?"
The strategy team knows each other well, and it is unlikely that anyone who has cleared the Dark Martial Arts Club will keep it a secret. Under Kirito, only Eugene and Negishi Yoshiyuki are closer to single-handedly challenging Toguro Rodi - there really are other regional servers, we How to face it?
Several people wanted to say something else, but system prompts flashed before their eyes.
‘Prepare for battle! ’
‘Kiritani Kazuto’s team (018) vs. Jay Furishi’s team (015)! ’
Is the 15th ranked team taking the challenge?
Jay Fulis? Foreigner?
The next moment, the body teleported, and the five people returned to the venue where they had entered 54 times.
This time there were no virtual spectators around, and there were no opponents including Toguro Ludi's team who had fought countless times. There were only five other people facing them across the ring.
‘You don’t look very old. Is the youngest girl 12 years old? They're not some weird aliens, they're all yellow-skinned... But I've never seen them before. It's a cross-region war. Are they really people from another world? what to do? ’
Kirito quickly observed his opponent, and was a little hesitant for a moment, even unsure - did the opposite team really pass the Dark Martial Arts Club?
On the opposite side, 16-year-old Gon and Killua, 20-year-old Kurapika, 22-year-old Xiaodi, and the old woman Bisiki are also observing them.
"Ha, for those of you who haven't seen it before, I guessed it right. The team that recently cleared the Dark Martial Arts Club is really from another 'area'! It's not in vain!"
At this time, Bisji suddenly smiled and said: "The five children opposite, don't think about how to behave as if you have been guided by your seniors. To us, you are the first ones from other districts." 's squad.
Yes, that's right, I don't know how many zones this tower is divided into, but at least the first 17 teams that cleared the Dark Martial Arts Club are all from the same 'zone' as ours, only you are not. "
Who do children call children?
This awkwardness only lasted for a moment, and they were emotionally affected by the words that followed.
Are the first 17 teams in their area? ! There are at least 17 people who can kill Toguro Rodi one on one? This gap...
"Really, are they from the secret world of the Dark Continent?" Xiaojie said happily: "They are all human beings exactly like us."
"Don't be nervous, we won't ask where you live." Kurapika said in a gentle tone: "Before the battle, let's selectively exchange some information. I think this will be beneficial to both of us. "
Kirito and the others couldn't help but look at each other, and Kirito took a deep breath: "Okay."
The first is simple information exchange, making sure that the towers they are in are all the same tower. The bosses on the 50th floor are both Toguro brothers, but they are like two parallel worlds that do not intersect.
Each side has a different set of ‘players’.
On the way, Kurapika easily learned that Kirito and the others did not understand the "Dark Continent", and that disasters such as the 46th floor of immortal disease, the 51st floor of angstroms, and the 56th floor of twin rattlesnakes all cost "human lives".
From this point of view, they probably have much more people entering the tower than us, but there is a certain gap between their overall strength and ours.
After thinking about it, Kurapika and Bischi exchanged glances, and then said: "In this way, we have a lot of information to trade with each other. We have currently cleared the 79th floor of the tower and stopped in front of the 80th floor. We are probably a little ahead of you. You probably need information about the levels you haven’t been to yet, right?”
They also stopped in front of the 80th floor? !
Kirito and others were secretly shocked. As expected, 17 teams had cleared Toguro Ludi's area, and the progress of the mysterious team was actually the same.
But it’s also the 80th floor? It seems that the boss on the 80th floor is really strong... They also remembered the rumor that the mysterious team that appeared after not appearing again for two and a half years was destroyed by the boss on the 80th floor.
In the past two and a half years, Kirito and other players have only just explored the 68th floor. If there is information about the next 11 floors... it would be really good.
"Our progress is at the 68th floor." At this time, Asuna suddenly said: "What do you need in exchange? For example, the function of the Demon Sealing Thread?"
Kirito hesitated, can that thing be exchanged?
But the reaction of the other party at the next moment told them that the other party really didn't know. Kurapika asked directly: "Do you know the function of the Demon-Sealing Thread?"
Yes, if they knew, they would know that the two districts are most likely to be competitive in the Mysterious Tower, and would not propose a sharing intelligence transaction!
I think the original function of the Demon-Sealing Thread was a friend of Kirito. Klein died during the boss battle. He learned about it because he was wearing the Demon-Sealing Thread. He then used a trusted brother to log in with a helmet and stopped at this stop. Come tell them.
If you don’t know, it means that the other party did not use a helmet to enter the mysterious tower, or does not have the cohesion of the whole country like us?
After a brief exchange between the two parties, both parties found out some secrets from each other. Bisiki also discovered this. He looked at Asuna with his arms folded and said, "Well, she is a very smart and beautiful girl."
Asuna smiled: "Little sister, you are also very cute."
Bisji suddenly beamed, and the handsome boy Killua twitched the corners of his lips and asked tentatively: "How did you get into this tower? We came here to find someone in the first place.
There was a friend and senior who originally promised to explore a dangerous place for us. He replied within half a year, but he never returned. So we met to search together and entered this tower in a daze. What about you, did you come here on your own initiative? "
Sure enough, it wasn't through the helmet... Kirito shook his head: "We used other methods... Have you found that friend and senior?"
"No." Killua spread his hands and a glimmer of light flashed in his eyes: "I hope he is safe and sound."
"Ji Xing is so strong, of course he will be fine!" Xiaojie immediately added confidently as he expected.
Ji Xing? Kirito and the other five were instantly stunned.
The change of expression at this moment was not hidden from Killua's eyes, which made Killua feel happy. What he said about finding Ji Xing was true, but the method of finding Ji Xing was vague. In fact, the group of them teleported to Ji Xing through Naniga's wish!
As a result, after entering the tower and not finding Ji Xing, Killua always had a vague guess in his mind - he believed in Naniga's ability, so there must be something wrong somewhere else.
At the same time, Kurapika and Bischi were also aware of it. Their eyes were slightly surprised. Kurapika immediately asked: "You...?"
"Uh... It's probably just the same name." Asuna said, "The teacher who taught me cooking is also named Ji Xing."
"He is two meters tall and has very long legs?" Bisji said with narrowed eyes.
Asuna's eyes widened in confusion, and Kirito and the others also looked at each other... What a coincidence?
"Huh? That guy has really been assigned to another area to teach cooking? He's in a good mood!"
"Hey, Ji Xing is in their area?!"
"Wait, wait." Kirito said, "You mean... the Ji Xing we know is your friend and senior?"
It seems that Ji Xing did not show his strength in the opponent's area...Kurapika immediately judged this, with a trace of hesitation on his face.
At this time, Bisji raised his toes and patted him on the shoulder, and said with a smile: "Whatever, that bastard has made us worry for more than two years, and you are still afraid that something will happen that he can't handle?"
After finishing her words, she looked at Asuna and said: "Little girl, have you ever encountered any trouble that Ji Xing helped solve? Is your strategy level really only 68? If Ji Xing is not playing, even if it is just He should be able to survive alone."
The trouble that Ji Xing helped solve?
That time between Immortal Disease and Sugou Nobuyuki.
The real strategy layer?
The same is the 80th floor.
At this moment, it was as if an electric current hit the five Kiritos. They all felt numb from the base of their feet to their spines!
What's the meaning?
…
Half an hour later.
The five people who had "timed out" returned to the teleportation tower on the 51st floor and stood there in a daze for a long time.
I never imagined that the truth of the ‘Mysterious Team’ would be like this! Ji Xing, who cooks extremely delicious food, has been regarded by them as a dice poker player and a tailor who has no real job in the past two years. He comes from another world. Can he push the mysterious tower up to 30 floors by himself? !
Knowing that Ji Xing had also advanced to the 80th floor, the outer team was stunned for a moment before saying, "As expected of Ji Xing," but Kirito and others didn't even mention that they had accomplished this two and a half years ago!
Two reading ability teaching books were written by him.
He sold a lot of key information.
what a...
"Now, what should I do now?"
The other district team strongly hopes that they can bring Ji Xing to the cross-district points competition, but...
"Look for Argo!" Asuna gritted her teeth, thinking of some situations in the past few years.
Argo...she knows? !
Not long after, the mouse came to them with a guilty look on his face: "Hey..."
A group of six people arrived at the 49th floor. Kirito and the five Kiritos, who often visited Ji Xing's house, became hesitant. Argo, who had been quietly apologizing to Asuna all the way, stood up and knocked on the door.
"Ji Xing! Are you at home?"
"The door is unlocked, come in!"
Ji Xing's response came from inside the room. Argo opened the door and signaled back to the five people.
The five of them took a deep breath to calm down, and walked into Ji Xing's home with completely different emotions than before. They were paused again in the foyer.
Ji Xing was seen sitting on the sofa, carefully repairing an ornament with a carving knife.
What kind of ornament is that?
Although the materials used were only a piece of tree root, the giant carp leaping from the river on the ground to the gantry in the sky was constructed with exquisite skills. Above the clouds, there were two unknown old men playing chess on the table. Standing next to them was a handsome young man watching the chess game. The expressions of the three of them were even more lifelike, as if they could come to life if they clicked on two eyes.
Even the chess pieces are as detailed as real!
In addition, there is a monster not far away that is baring its teeth and claws, and there are several people around it who are flying or drawing swords to attack the monster.
Each expression and movement are reflected to the extreme. From top to bottom, from left to right, there are many contents piled on the small wood carving, but they are extremely layered, well-organized, exquisite and perfect!
Just seeing it makes people hold their breath involuntarily, for fear that some movement will disturb Ji Xing and destroy the perfection of this wooden sculpture!
He...is really that extremely powerful...special chef from another world? !
The five Kiritos were even more confused.
They didn't dare to breathe until Ji Xing completed the repairs and put down the carving knife in his hand.
Sculpting: Master (Level 10) (Full Level)
Ji Xing looked at this wood carving with perfect details with satisfaction. Not long ago, he had completed a larger and more magnificent "final work" with stone carvings.
The 77th full-level skill, completed!
He raised his head and looked at Kirito and the others: "Looking at your expressions, you already know my identity? Have you cleared the level of Dark Martial Arts?"
You are calm... Argo cursed and said: "Ji Xing, your trouble has been revealed!"
"Little things." Ji Xing stood up and smiled: "There is nothing that can't be solved with one meal. If there is, then two meals. I'll cook tonight. Asuna, come and help me a little."
"Oh... oh!"
Asuna subconsciously went over, and when she got the apron, she was stunned. She looked at the four Kiritos who were staring at her at the door, and then at Ji Xing. For a moment, she didn't know what to do.
Looking for a monthly pass for September.
