It has been five months since SAO turned into a death game and the Players were imprisoned in this world.
Four months ago, the Players led by Rozen broke through the first floor of Aincrad, breaking the situation of almost no progress for a month, bringing a glimmer of hope to the Players in this world.
From then on, the players seemed to have been completely energized. They were no longer afraid of the monsters, nor were they sad about their current situation. As if they were racing against time, they broke through the floating city named Aincrad at an astonishing speed.
Under such circumstances, it had only been ten days since the Players had reached this floor when the second floor was conquered.
The third floor was conquered even faster, and it only took the Players seven days.
In other words, although they were trapped on the first floor for a whole month, in about half a month, the Players in the front line broke through two floors and reached the fourth floor.
As for the fourth floor, it only took three days to clear.
That's right.
Three days.
This was simply an unbelievable speed.
There were three reasons as to why it had changed so quickly.
One: The Players were no longer desperate and afraid of the current situation, and some people began to move forward resolutely.
Two: A large number of beta testers joined the frontline, increasing the clearing speed.
Three: Rozen, the man with the only tamed monster in the entire server, later known as the Magician, has been leading the Players in the front line since the second floor. He led a group of top Players into the labyrinth area fearlessly, found the Floor Boss' room as fast as possible, and then began to clear the floor without any losses.
With this, not only were the players in high spirits, but they also began to participate in the raid, increasing the number of top-tier players on the frontlines. Their combat power continued to rise, and the raiding speed increased with each passing day.
Of course, even if the Players began to move forward bravely, it was impossible for them to clear a floor in only three days.
However, with the participation of Rozen and the beta tester guild led by him, Red Wings, the frontline team still cleared a floor in about five days.
Now, it has been four months since the first floor was conquered.
As for the frontlines, they had already reached the 26th floor.
Not long ago, the 25th floor was conquered, which meant that the players had conquered a quarter of Aincrad.
However, the 25th floor was also a special floor.
In order to break through this floor, Rozen had put in a lot of effort not long ago. It was only recently that he finally had some free time.
Because of this, recently, Rozen had been sleeping for seven to eight hours almost every day. When he woke up in the morning, he was still listless.
However, in the words of the guild members …
"Even without this reason, the president is still listless every day."
That's it.
Rozen came to the bar in this situation.
That was Red Wings' base on the 24th Floor, Panareze.
Generally speaking, a guild would choose a place as their base and a place where their members would gather. Stronger and wealthier guilds would even spend a large amount of Cor to buy empty houses in the game and use them as their base.
As the most powerful guild in SAO, whether it was strength or financial resources, Rozen's Red Wings would not lose to the other guilds. It was a piece of cake for them to buy a house as their base.
In view of this, after seeing the environment here recently, Rozen immediately made a decision.
"Let's buy a house on this floor as our base."
Prior to this, Rozen didn't even think about buying a house to set up a base.
Because with the Clearers' speed, on average, they cleared a floor every five days, so the time they spent on a floor was quite short. Plus, there were probably better places on the upper floors, so Rozen didn't want to buy a house to set up a base for the time being.
But since reaching the 25th Floor, the Clearers' speed began to slow down, so Rozan Can considered setting up a base here.
Rozen came to the bar under the guidance of the guild members.
There was a benefit to this bar.
That was, all kinds of alcohol and drinks could be stored in the bar's item bar and provided to the Players who ordered it at will.
Don't underestimate this benefit.
In SAO, all food and drinks have a set of durability. Some of them will lose their durability over time, and some will lose their durability if they are taken out of the designated food area. Therefore, they can't be stored in the Player's item bar all the time, and they can't be carried around all the time.
On the other hand, this bar could store all alcoholic beverages and even dishes so that the durability of the food and beverages wouldn't decrease.
That was also the reason why Rozen was interested in this bar.
"There are also types of food and drinks that will increase the buff after consumption. These types of food and drinks usually have a purchase limit and quantity limit. If I buy them and store them in the bar, I can use them at any time. More or less, I can get some buff, which will help the guild members in the raid more effectively."
Because of this consideration, Rozen bought the bar.
So, Rozen knocked on the bar and called out the bar's item bar. After ordering a glass of low alcohol, he picked up the newspaper on the side.
It was a newspaper made by the Players.
Nowadays, in SAO, killing monsters wasn't the only way to make money.
In order to earn Cor, the Players have learned various Production and Lifestyle skills, which led to the emergence of various merchants.
Customizing the latest news that happened in SAO, making it into a newspaper and sending it to every floor was also a way of doing business.
Rozen picked up the newspaper that only cost 10 Cor a day and read the headlines.
"Breaking News: The former Clearers' Guild" Aincrad Liberation Squad "merged with the Town of Beginnings' support organization" MMO Today "to form a new guild," Aincrad Liberation Army "."
Seeing this news, Rozen raised his eyebrows slightly.
"Aincrad Liberation Army … huh?"
So Rozen muttered to himself.
"It seems that you haven't given up yet, King Of Ya."
This sentence was met with a familiar voice in return.
"There's nothing I can do about it."
A petite girl in a cloak came to Rozen's side and said so while tapping on the bar's menu.
"With that personality, even if the guild members are almost wiped out and the guild's strength is greatly reduced, I'm sure he won't give up, right?"
The one who said that was Argo.
