Looking down from the top of the Grand Canyon, the overall area of ​​the central altar is not very large, and it can be easily seen. However, when most people really enter the altar, they realize how naive their thoughts are.

Although the appearance of the central altar resembles the Colosseum, the interior is astonishingly large.

Hundreds of people appearing at the same time is not so crowded, on the contrary, it is estimated that the number of people will increase several times.

At this time, many players noticed the abnormality under their feet.

It was a mysterious pattern outlined by stone-gray lines, just like the magic circle that was popular in the Middle Ages. People couldn't help but feel a strange feeling when they saw it, and they couldn't tell whether it was good or bad.The number is about dozens, forming a super-large pattern like the ring of Mobius.

Unfortunately, none of them noticed this.

They only noticed that such mysterious patterns spread all over the inner grounds, which seemed particularly eye-catching.

"What is this? A magic circle?"

"Wait, I have them too!"

"Stop joking, where does magic come from in this world? This is obviously an official graffiti, okay?"

Even so, the players who said this were a little bit lacking in confidence.

After all, even the official can't control them now, the game settings are all up to Kayaba Akihiko, who knows if he will suddenly lose his nerve and create unimaginable magical phenomena.

"Everyone be quiet! Keep the formation according to the original plan, and don't get confused by some trivial things!" Seeing that the commotion in the team was getting bigger and bigger, Diabel had no choice but to stand up and shout.

Fortunately, here, his prestige is still relatively high, and those curious players immediately quieted down.

Diavel frowned and looked at Kibaou next to him, his questioning gaze seemed to ask, "Why didn't you tell me about the magic circle?"

Kibaou was embarrassed, and said in a low voice, "I'm sorry Mr. Diavel, but I don't know about it. Because when I came last time, there were no such things on the ground."

Didn't you notice it?

Diavel thought to himself, and he scoffed at Kibaou's explanation in his heart, he didn't believe such nonsense.

The settings of the game system will not be temporarily changed, and the settings will only be changed at the beginning, in other words-before death is declared.

If Kayaba Akihiko really temporarily modified the game settings, wouldn't that prove that 'he deliberately played tricks on everyone'?no!Once this matter got out, it would have a huge impact on morale, so even if it was true, Diavel would not admit it.

But he did guess right.

This is not a conspiracy by Akihiko Kayaba, but a hidden setting of the game.

To be precise, the difficulty has changed.

In fact, Kibao's strategy also had patterns, but they were just some graffiti-like lines, and they were still at the edge of the inner field, so it's normal not to notice them.

It didn't take long for the scene to quiet down——

The ground suddenly began to shake, and the dull rumbling sound coming from the depths of the ground under their feet made most people's hearts tense up, and they all thought in unison: "It shouldn't be an earthquake, right?"

No one answered their hearts, because as the vibration grew stronger, the dull roar in the depths of the earth became clearer.Yes, that was not the sound of an earthquake, but a roar that did not resemble a human being.

Realizing this, many players' expressions froze.

The oppressive atmosphere, the constantly shaking earth, and the mysterious roar.

A chill couldn't help but seep from the bottom of my heart, seeping into every corner of my body, like an invisible big hand tightly choking my throat, making it hard to breathe.

Facing this kind of power, only a few people remained calm. They were the members of the clearing team who followed Kibaou in the boss clearing battle, including the high-ranking commander Diavel, and——Asuna.

Surprisingly, Asuna.

She showed a calmness that didn't match her age, just like a warrior who has been walking on the edge of life and death all year round. There is no fear or retreat in the chestnut eyes, but only unwavering faith.Although she didn't know what her belief was, no one would doubt her determination.

There is no doubt that once the battle begins, she will be a sword that will make the enemy tremble.

Like a shooting star that never dies, her gorgeous and elegant figure is the most terrifying scenery on the battlefield.

"...Did I underestimate her?" Ling Yi, who was hiding behind the incomplete stone wall, whispered to himself, and suddenly smiled: "Forget it, this is the best time to witness the shining sword."

The moment his words fell, the earthquake suddenly stopped!

Then--

"Roar!"

The terrifying volume was like an earthquake in a certain sense, which shocked all the players present. Immediately, they noticed that the mysterious pattern under their feet erupted with dazzling light, as if it wanted to cover the sky and the ground at the same time.

Diavel's eyelids twitched, and he shouted without hesitation: "Everyone stand back 20 meters! Don't approach the center of the field! The shield swordsmen are in front, and the pikemen are behind. Everyone is ready to fight!"

Under his timely order, those players who were too scared to move backed away as if they were running away.

If it hadn't been for the mental quality of the players in the clearing group to pass the test, quickly stand in formation and put on a high-spirited momentum, I am afraid that hundreds of people will flee in all directions because of this.At that time, even if Diavel's command ability is excellent, it is impossible to turn the tide of the battle in one fell swoop.

Maybe Ling Yi can, but why would he do this?

After the mysterious pattern resembling a magic circle was lit up, I saw that those rays of light seemed to cut the earth into countless pieces, gathered together along strange lines, and then slowly formed a huge outline.

At first glance, it looks a bit like a human being, but it is a little different.

That is - it is a giant.

The body is completely made of mysterious minerals, and the surface is covered with a thick layer of dark red skin. At first glance, it is easy to think of a thick armor. The body of more than 25 feet (about 7.5 meters) stands on the ground. In fact, if you regard it as a human being, then it must be a super muscular man wearing heavy knight armor and weighing more than two hundred catties.

A living stone giant suddenly appeared in front of him.

One can imagine how strong this visual impact is.

What is particularly eye-catching is the size of its arms, which are completely out of proportion to its body shape.

As if inflated several times, the fist is like a giant hammer after clenched.Moreover, it doesn't have a lower body, and it has been integrated with the ground from the waist, so it is more like a giant beast than a giant.

Diavel once again looked at Kibaou, the meaning was self-evident.

"This... It's really not my fault, you have to believe me!" Kiba-oh even wanted to cry, scolded Akihiko Kayaba who didn't know where he was countless times in his heart, and greeted him in various ways. His ancestral home is an ancestor, and his household registration is no longer enough to appease his resentment.

"Oh? Then you mean that I heard it wrong?" Diavel frowned, his face was so calm that he counted down the characteristics of Kibaou's report that day: "Stone giants no longer than five meters, The movement speed is slow, the defense is amazing, and the physical attack is not very outstanding."

After all, he pointed to the giant mountain-like monster not far away, and said with a sneer, "I can tell that the defense is amazing. As for the body that does not exceed five meters, I want to ask you that math is taught by the physical education teacher's ** Is it also moving speed, you want to tell me that since it is a boss, it is not surprising that it can crawl? In the end, I suddenly felt that you are very talented in combat. A 'fragile' fist! Don't you think so?! My dearest adjutant, Kibaou-san."
