Chapter 49 Attack on the 75th Floor Boss
Level 75 of Aincrad, Crinia, Transfer Square...

Today's atmosphere is particularly heavy, and there is always a sense of depression covering people's hearts. Their faces are all full of seriousness, and they keep wandering on the wide square.

At the same time, the players were still scattered, forming groups in twos and threes, each chatting about something.

It's just that from the worry and tension on their faces, it seems that they can understand that what is about to happen is not easy!
And the fact is indeed the case, these fifty or so players are all top players in the strategy group.

Gathered here, in response to Heathcliff's call, went to the labyrinth area, and captured the boss on the 75th floor!

They all knew more or less that this time the guarding boss is different from the previous guarding bosses, and will be particularly powerful.

Therefore, although more than fifty players were chatting about something, none of them was joking, which made the atmosphere even more heavy.

Indistinctly, there is also a thick and indescribable haze that permeates the square, showing the inner emotions of everyone present...

Perhaps he knew from somewhere that today is a special day. The people in the Transfer Gate Square are all players from the Raiders group, and none of them are from other places.

Otherwise, there would not be only fifty people left here.

After all, it is the front line, and the danger also means greater rewards. Many capable players are still willing to come here.

But today there is none!
Everyone whispered, not sure if they were discussing the strategy or praying for themselves.

"Deputy head, you said [Shadow League] will come to help?"

A somewhat surprised voice suddenly sounded, and the man in the red and white knight uniform said happily.

"Well, Duo has already agreed to the leader's request, so you can rest assured Diabel."

Asuna heard the words, nodded emphatically, and replied with certainty.

That man, no!Diabel breathed a sigh of relief slowly, and his heart that was tense all the time was also slightly relieved.

"That's really great. With Duo's participation, our chances of winning will definitely increase a lot..."

Although it has been more than a year since he defeated the first-floor boss, Duo's powerful and trembling posture is still fresh in his memory and he dare not forget it.

Now, knowing that Duo would join them in the 75th floor boss raid, how could Diabel not be excited.

"Are you so confident in him?"

Seeing this, Asuna joked in a joking tone.

"If even he can't do it, then we in SAO can only wait to die..."

Diabel shrugged his shoulders. Although these words were full of negative emotions, how could they not be the truth?

Asuna also sighed slightly, then said nothing more, and then just quietly waited for the arrival of other guilds and her own president.

Finally on the platform of the transfer door, accompanied by a flash of light, the eyes of the players present couldn't help but look in that direction, and everyone's attention was instantly attracted!

Those who will come here today will only come to participate in the 75th floor guard boss battle, that is to say, their next companions.

Even if it is for the sake of their own safety, they have to see clearly who the person who came is, and whether they are worthy of their entrustment, which is also human nature...

But soon everyone's eyes widened, because when the waves disappeared, several figures appeared in the players' sight range.

That's someone they couldn't have imagined anyway!
I saw them wearing black uniforms, with a dagger-like silhouette on their left chests. They walked slowly to the square, looked around lightly, and then walked towards Asuna's position.

"This is a member of the [Shadow League]? And all... all of them are high-level cadres, it's really incredible..."

"Dragon Envoy Silica... Black Swordsman Kirito... White Knight Rand... And the last shadow (princess) Lord Duo, my God, they are all here..."

The originally heavy square seemed to be blown up, and it didn't match the previous atmosphere at all. All the players showed joyful expressions at this moment.

Not caring about other people's changes, Duo frowned and asked Asuna.

"Has Heathcliff not come yet?"

"Not yet, the president is preparing the corridor crystal, it should be soon."

The corridor crystal has the same effect as the transfer crystal, except that it can freely set the transfer location, and it can also allow multiple people to transfer, but unfortunately it can only be used once.

"Hey, isn't this our little princess? I didn't expect to meet you here..."

Duo couldn't help turning dark, the voice was so familiar, he didn't need to turn around to know who it was?
On the other hand, Rand smacked his lips, looking at the man with the face of a downcast warrior as if looking at a dead man.

"Klein, I think you should shut up first."

At this time, a tall, dark-skinned bald man slapped the other person on the shoulder hard, his tone full of speechlessness.

"Haha, Agil, I'm just joking..." Klein smiled awkwardly.

No, you are joking with your life!

Several people around kept complaining in their hearts.

Duo took a deep look at Klein, which made the latter tremble.

Why do you feel that this look is a bit strange...

"I didn't expect you to come back!"

Kirito patted Agil's chest lightly, and said happily.

"What does 'I didn't expect' mean, I put aside my business and came to support you, can't you understand the spirit of selflessness and desire?"

Agil straightened his back, full of pride.

"So, how about excluding you when distributing the spoils?" Kirito smiled lightly.

"No... no, those are two different things!"

Agil hurriedly explained, and then everyone burst out laughing, including himself.

While these few people were talking, Heathcliff also brought a few members of the [Blood Knights] to the square, and all the voices disappeared without a trace.

"Now that everyone is here, let's get started."

As he spoke, he took out a corridor crystal that was much larger than ordinary crystals.

"The corridor is open!"

As soon as the words fell, the corridor crystal in Heathcliff's hand immediately shattered.

And in front of Heathcliff, an arc that seemed to appear during the transfer reverberated, like a passage, frozen on the spot...

"Let's go!"

Looking at the passage in front of them, everyone's expressions were full of solemnity, and then they followed Heathcliff closely, their eyes dazzled, and they arrived at the door of the boss' room the next moment.

Looking at the gate that is close at hand, no matter who it is, there is an unprecedented seriousness.

Without much hesitation, Lizcliff pushed open the door and shouted loudly.

"Down with the boss!"
