Planting the World Tree From Pirates

The 56th floor of Aincrad.

Penny.

The headquarters of the Wings of Liberty Guild.

"What should I do... Makino... things are going to end badly..."

"Relax, the sky won't fall, just drink some tea first."

Asuna held the black tea that Makino helped to brew, her face regained some blood, but she was still very anxious.

The duel invitation that Captain Heathcliff asked her to convey, although not in the nature of accountability, has a strong sense of exchange - if Makino wants to maintain a romantic relationship with her, he must accept this duel invitation!

[What are these? ]

[Could it be that she is the deputy head of the Knights of the Blood Alliance, and doesn't even have the freedom to fall in love? ]

Although she is the deputy head of the Knights of the Blood Alliance and Makino is the president of the Wings of Freedom, the relationship between the two guilds is not as harmonious as expected.

but.

Because of this inexplicable reason, she was about to have Makino and the captain duel, which still made Asuna feel very uncomfortable.

She felt that since the blood alliance knights expanded significantly, the blood alliance knights really is no longer the guild it was when it was founded.

Asuna knew that the most fundamental reason why this matter developed to this point might be that she took the opportunity to dismiss Cratier under the run on Makino.

Although, Captain Heathcliff has clearly ordered Cradle to suspend his duties and reflect.

But still...it depends on the owner to beat the dog!

Cladier, Heathcliff can be dismissed and punished, but Makino cannot interfere.

Because, all of this is the internal affairs of the Knights of the Blood.

Asuna said apologetically, "Makino, I've tried very hard to convince him that it's pointless to do so... But he just wouldn't listen anyway..."

The king does not see the king. This principle is a common rule in ancient and modern China and abroad.

Because the king cannot lose no matter what.

Once Wang loses, there will be no way out.

The Wings of Liberty can no longer compete with the Knights of the Blood!

In the past year, Asuna has tried to defeat Makino and Wings of Freedom more than once.

But definitely not through this kind of coercion!

Although Asuna is very confident in Makino, especially after knowing the news of [Wu Shuang Sword], her confidence has doubled.

Even though it was called "Flash", Asuna still felt that Makino and she were not powerful in the same dimension.

but.

Heathcliff, the leader of the Knights of the Blood Alliance, is even more mysterious, and no one even knows how strong he is.

Although Makino has a lot of titles, in fact, Heathcliff is not inferior in this regard.

In some ways, even more or less.

Heathcliff is really mysterious!

Titles such as "The Strongest Man", "Living Legend", "Holy Knight", etc., are all basic operations.

Commander Heathcliff uses a pair of swords and shields in the shape of a cross, which is free to attack and defend, and unparalleled in defense.

Nowadays, the Knights of the Blood Alliance in SAO, or ordinary players, as long as they use a combination of swords and shields, they are basically influenced by Heathcliff.

One can imagine the influence of Heathcliff.

As for the defensive power it possesses, it is even more perverted - no one has seen his HP fall into the yellow zone so far.

When the leader of the 50th floor with many casualties was attacking the battle, he alone supported the almost collapsed battle line for ten minutes, and this anecdote is still talked about today.

[No weapon can penetrate Heathcliff's shield. ]

This is even regarded as an iron law by many players in Aincrad, just like many players in the Wings of Freedom guild believe that President Makino is their last "blood lock".

This is simply a miracle!

Asuna is really worried about Makino!

She even felt that the head of the regiment took the opportunity to ask Muye to fight at this time.

It even broke Heathcliff's usual impression in Asuna's heart!

Seeing Asuna's anxious look, Makino immediately smiled.

Asuna didn't understand what was going on, Makino certainly understood.

Heathcliff must have finally confirmed that Makino has obtained the special sword skill [Unparalleled Sword]. He feels that his "pig" is almost fattened, and it is worth his weight.

However, if Heathcliff thinks he can beat Makino like this, then he thinks too much.

For this decisive battle, Makino himself was actually looking forward to it.

"Don't worry, Asuna, I'm the number one swordsman in SAO!"

Seeing Makino's confident expression, Asuna couldn't help but be deeply affected, but she still couldn't hide her anxiety.

"Muye, listen to me, the leader's behavior this time is very strange!"

"Weird?"

"Yes! The head of the team usually doesn't say it's a guild event. Even the floor strategy is fully handled by us. He has never issued an order at all, but I don't know why this time..."

The more Asuna said, the more she felt wrong.

There is no doubt that Heathcliff, the leader of the Knights of the Blood, has a very high prestige in the Knights of the Blood.

Not to mention that Asuna never thought about seizing power, even if she really thought about it, she would never be able to do it.

Although, Asuna, the deputy head, is the actual person in charge and executor of various affairs of the Knights of the Blood.

However, within the Knights of the Blood Alliance, Heathcliff's charm is almost overwhelming.

With this, he also firmly grasped the hearts of the Knights of the Blood Alliance, and even most of the players in the strategy group.

But surprisingly, he never gave instructions or orders.

Even in large-scale battles such as boss battles and boss battles, he didn't say a word, just silently supporting the battle.

But even so, it is still admired by everyone.

In a sense, Heathcliff and Makino are strikingly similar.

Both of them are extremely powerful, and they rarely take action, they are all the guild's Dinghaishenzhen...

This is the kind of man who actually objected to Asuna's application this time, insisted on a confrontation with Makino, and even didn't care about interfering with personal privacy and freedom.

No matter how you look or think, it's not normal!

Seeing Asuna's frowning frown, Makino couldn't help being moved, even a little guilty.

Asuna has no reservations about him, but many of his secrets cannot be told to Asuna now.

In order to reassure Asuna, Makino said, "It's just a duel, no matter how bad it is, it won't be too bad. As for the first guild, I actually don't take it too seriously."

Seeing that Makino had made a decision, Asuna was a little uneasy, but that was the only way things could go.

"Well... I'm so sorry for always causing you trouble..."

"Do you still need to say things like causing trouble at this time? Asuna!"

Makino had a dissatisfied look on his face.

Asuna understood in seconds, the worry on her face disappeared, replaced by a smile.

Asuna's smile was beautiful, and Makino's mood couldn't help but brighten.

One thing, Makino didn't lie.

Makino is also looking forward to the showdown with Heathcliff!

Because Heathcliff, or Kayaba Akihiko, may be the most difficult "big question" in Makino's exam.

but.

When it came time to do the most difficult big problem, Muye was actually a little worried about gains and losses.

Because, Makino is really reluctant to end this exam just like that.

Because, the wonderful life between him and Asuna has just begun!

No matter what, the wheel of history will eventually roll forward.

......

The news that Makino was going to fight Heathcliff quickly spread throughout Aincrad.

The influence of this point even surpasses that of Makino's three swords beheading Johnny Black, the cadre of the Smiling Coffin.

For this battle, the players in the entire SAO have been looking forward to it for too long.

Whether the leader of the Wings of Freedom, Makino, is stronger, or the leader of the Knights of the Blood, Heathcliff, has become a national topic since the day the two guilds competed against each other.

This time, it is just a result of the final fermentation of this topic.

The whole SAO is completely boiling!

The news that Makino and Heathcliff are going to duel is even more rumored.

Of course.

One of the gossips that I have to mention is that the duel between Makino and Heathcliff was a red face (Asuna).

Even Muye doesn't know how this gossip spread!

However, when Makino knew the news, the entire SAO had already spread.

Even if Makino and Asuna jointly refuted the rumors, it would have no effect.

On the contrary, the members of the Wings of Freedom and the Knights of the Blood Alliance all seemed to have been beaten with blood.

Another notable impact is that the gaming industry in SAO is booming.

The topic of who is stronger between Makino and Heathcliff has already become the biggest gamble in SAO's history.

Although there is not much difference between the two in terms of odds, it can still be seen that Makino and Heathcliff have the difference in influence.

Heathcliff gained more from high-level players, especially the influence of the Raiders group.

However, Makino's influence is mainly based on middle and lower-level players.

As for the strategy team, Makino and Heathcliff still have some differences.

Of course, these differences are extremely small.

......

The duel between Makino and Heathcliff was finally chosen in the arena on the 70th floor.

It is said to be an arena, but just looking at the image, it is more like an ancient Roman Colosseum.

However, the design of the "Colosseum" is very suitable for the audience to watch.

When Makino and Wings of Freedom's players arrived at the arena, the arena was already crowded, and the audience seats were filled with players from all floors.

In terms of scale, it is almost catching up with the Mid-Autumn Festival Gala a few days ago. It is conceivable that many players are looking forward to this battle.

"The people of Wings of Freedom are here!"

I don't know who shouted, and the whole arena was completely noisy.

"Makino!"

"Makino!"

"Makino!"

The sound of shouting resounded through the sky.

Not to mention others, even Makino was a little excited.

As for the rest of the Wings of Freedom Guild, their blood is boiling.

Each of them knew that President Makino had a great influence, but this situation was still somewhat beyond everyone's imagination.

Of course, Makino has a large number of supporters, and Heathcliff is no exception.

When Makino's supporters chanted the name "Makino", Heathcliff's supporters also exerted their strength, and the voice of support for Heathcliff's victory for a while also penetrated into the sky.

What's even more incredible is that these two voices come and go one after another, and they even become more vigorous.

This made countless people who eat melons stunned!

They knew that Makino and Heathcliff were very popular, but they didn't expect their popularity to be so high.

The duel between characters like Makino and Heathcliff, especially with so many audiences coming, even if the two parties wanted to make it simple, it would not be easy.

As a result, various procedures are becoming more and more complicated and formalized.

Perhaps in order to prevent accidents or even possible disturbances in the duel, the members of the Wings of Freedom Guild were first guided into the auditorium.

And Makino, led by the service staff, came to a preparation room - a small room facing the arena.

Although the room is small, it has all the internal organs and all kinds of facilities.

Of course, the most important thing is that it is very convenient for Makino to enter the arena here.

Outside the room, cheers rose one after another.

However, nothing could affect Makino's state of mind.

Silently wiping the dark holy sword in his hand, Muye's heart became more and more peaceful.

At this moment, Makino unexpectedly received a communication from Asuna.

"Even if the outcome is determined by one blow, as long as you take a heavy attack from the front, you will still be in danger. Especially, there are still many unknowns in the captain's sword skills. If you feel bad, you will surrender immediately, you know?"

Muye smiled, and without thinking, replied directly, "You should still worry about Heathcliff."

Here, I have to mention the duel mechanism in SAO.

Because SAO has become a game of death, the act of initiating PK without authorization is generally absolutely forbidden.

However, where there are people, there are rivers and lakes. It is absolutely forbidden to initiate PK, which is impossible.

Therefore, PK can also be performed in SAO, but there are some restrictions.

The first is the geographical limitation.

In the circle, players cannot carry out any criminal acts and belong to a safe area.

Outside the circle, if players pk without authorization, the player who attacks first will be given the attributes of a criminal, the color buoy will turn orange, and they will not be able to enter the circle.

However, if it's a duel, it can be fought both inside and outside the circle.

The key to a duel is that both parties agree!

After both parties agree, the attacker will not become an orange name.

Of course, as long as there are rules, there are loopholes.

This loophole is the common killing method of the crime guild - sleep PK.

The so-called "sleep PK homicide method" is a method that uses the complete victory and defeat model to achieve the purpose of homicide.

The prisoner took the opportunity to propose a one-on-one duel to the target player while he was sleeping, and used the player's finger to click the consent button in his application window.

In this way, you can successfully kill people without risking being labeled as a criminal player. Most of the killing methods in the circle are this method.

However, after this method was discovered, players became vigilant.

Although players who knew they would die if their hp returned to zero would not readily agree to a duel, SAO's duel was also designed into two modes.

One is the complete victory and defeat mode in the normal state, and the other is the one-hit victory and defeat mode.

In the complete victory mode, whoever first reduces the HP of others to 0 will win, and in the one-shot victory mode, whoever first reduces the HP of others to 50% will win.

Originally, there was no difference between the two, but after SAO became a death game, the complete victory and defeat mode was absolutely banned.

but.

Even if it is a one-shot win-lose mode, it is not completely without the risk of death.

A duel in the one-hit-win mode will end when one of the dueling parties' HP drops below 50%.

In the circle, when the window showing the result of the duel appears ~www.NovelMTL.com~ the player's continued attack will be blocked by the protection of the system and will be invalidated.

This sounds safe, but if a player has 2000 HP, and when the remaining 50% is attacked enough to cause 1000 damage, the HP will immediately drop to 0.

And even in a duel, once the HP becomes 0, the player will still die.

On the other hand, since the attacker is attacking in the duel mode, even if the player is killed, it will not become an orange name.

This mode has been used by the orange-named players and even the orange-named guild, which has killed a lot of players, and was once panicking.

To sum up, the one-shot win-lose mode is also a mode with huge risks. If there is no hatred that cannot be solved, players will still exercise restraint and will not initiate PK without authorization.

In other words, in this duel between Makino and Heathcliff, there is a possibility of death.

Even if one of them is killed, there is no need to take responsibility!

This is also one of the important reasons why players are so fanatical. The battle between Makino and Heathcliff is, in a way, a "life-and-death" death battle.

This is also the reason why Asuna kept remonstrating before the decisive battle!
