As it turned out, Rozen's idea was correct.
As soon as the Aincrad Army's Players entered the Safe Zone, they were immediately attacked by wild monsters before they even reached the labyrinth area.
Even if their level and equipment seemed to be able to keep up with the Clearers' top Players, they shouldn't be flustered by some monster's attack in the ordinary training area. But if they had never reached the frontline, even if their level had reached a safe range, they would still panic because they weren't used to the frontline's combat rhythm.
Moreover, the Aincrad Liberation Army's Players didn't seem to care about the monsters in the wild at first. They seemed to think that the monsters in the wild were not worthy of their attention. With contempt and pride in their hearts, the monsters gave the Players a surprise.
However, as the leader of the Aincrad Army, Cobards kept yelling at the rear with a flustered look.
"Are you still the elite of the Aincrad Liberation Army? Hurry up and get rid of these minions! "
Cobartz bellowed furiously. As a leader, he should have given orders to stabilize the team when they were in a state of panic. However, he didn't have the slightest self-awareness to do so. He only felt that he had wasted so much time on a bunch of trash in the wilderness. It was extremely embarrassing. So, he continued to make a ruckus. It was truly unbearable for him to watch.
Fortunately, the Aincrad Army's Players' level was quite high. Even if they were in a panic, they still managed to hold on and finally defeated the enemies in the chaos.
But Cobards seemed to be very dissatisfied with that, and he kept yelling.
"Our goal this time is to show the world our strength, and we must get rid of the monsters as easily as possible. Next time, we will not allow this kind of situation to happen again. Do you understand?"
Cobartz's order made the Aincrad Liberation Army's Players unable to complain, and they could only grit their teeth and continue on their way.
So Rozen, who used Concealment to follow behind the group of people, frowned, and his face was full of dissatisfaction.
"What the hell is that King Ya guy doing?"
Sending this kind of guy to the frontline, is there something wrong with his head?
"If this goes on, these guys will have wasted all their energy by the time we reach the maze area."
If that really happened, how were they going to deal with the monsters in the maze area that were far stronger than the monsters in the wilderness?
"If the Aincrad Liberation Army is like this, then don't even think about returning to the Clearers."
As the leader of the Clearers, Rozen silently sentenced them to death.
However, for Rozen to sentence these guys to death was considered a light punishment.
If these fellows sentenced themselves to death because of their stupidity, that would be a serious matter.
Rozen recalled the incident on the 25th Floor. In order to monopolize the Floor Boss, King Of Ya had disregarded the Clearers' wishes and rashly led his own guild members into the Floor Boss' room. As a result, they were almost annihilated.
With the current situation of the Aincrad Liberation Army, if they found the Floor Boss room on the 74th Floor, what would they do?
Would they ignore the Clearers' existence and enter the Floor Boss room just to show off their strength?
"Are we going to repeat the same mistake again?"
Rozen thought silently while continuing to follow behind the Aincrad Liberation Army.
At this time …
"Haa … haa … haa …"
Accompanied by a burst of rapid breathing, a figure quickly ran from the direction of the town.
Hiding in the grass, Rozen, who was about to catch up with Cobartz and his party, noticed the sound and turned his head to look at the source of the sound.
Immediately afterward, Rozen was startled.
He saw a rapier user in a knight uniform and miniskirt hurriedly running from behind, looking a little anxious.
"Yasna?" Rozen was surprised: "How did she run like this?"
It was as if he was being chased by someone.
"Chased?"
Rozen seemed to have thought of something. After glancing at the direction where the Aincrad Liberation Army left, he sighed and quietly sneaked in the direction where Yasna was.
… …
At the same time, Yasna, who was running on the forest trail, repeatedly looked behind her while confirming the map.
"Still … still chasing?"
Yasna's face showed disgust and annoyance, and she quickened her pace and rushed in the direction of the labyrinth area ahead.
Normally, whenever Asuna entered the Labyrinth, she would bring her guild members with her and raid the Labyrinth as a team. She would never venture into the Labyrinth alone.
But today, Yasna couldn't do that.
There were two reasons.
One was that today was not a guild activity day, and Yasna didn't plan to sneak into the labyrinth area with her guild members.
The other reason was that she didn't want to bring her guild members with her.
There was no other way.
The other party had gone too far.
Thinking of this, Yasna couldn't help but feel angry, but she still quickened her pace and tried to leave this place as soon as possible.
Just as Asuna dashed through a thicket …
"Rustle!"
The sound of the bush was quickly pushed aside, and a figure came out from it.
"What …!?"
Yasna noticed that someone was attacking her, and her pretty face changed slightly. Her slender hand immediately reached for the rapier on her waist and grabbed the hilt.
Unfortunately, before Yasna could pull out her weapon, the other party had already attacked Yasna from behind. One hand wrapped around Yasna's waist, and the other hand covered Yasna's mouth. Like a captive, the other party dragged Yasna directly into the bush and disappeared.
The bush shook violently several times, and after a while, everything returned to silence.
After a while, a man with a gloomy face appeared and ran there.
It was Klatyr.
"Please stop being willful! Lady Yasna! "
Klatyr shouted with a face full of anxiety.
"Please follow me back to the guild headquarters immediately!"
As Klatyr shouted, he continued to rush forward in an extremely irritable manner.
That look, rather than calling him a guard, it would be more accurate to call him a mad villain.
Just like that, Klatyr rushed forward and quickly disappeared at the end of the road.
He didn't notice that in the bush that he just passed by, two players' green cursors were floating.
"It's really him …"
Rozen hid behind the bush, watching the way Klatyr left, and couldn't help but twitch his mouth.
"Wuuuu …!"
In his arms, a whimpering sound could be heard.
The kidnapped girl was tightly held in Rozen's arms, and her mouth was even covered by Rozen's hand. Her face was red, and it was unclear whether she was embarrassed or angry.
"Uh …"
Rozen reacted and quickly let go of Yasna in his arms.
As soon as she was freed, she immediately turned around and clenched her fist without any hesitation. Her fist glowed with the light of a Sword Skill.
That was the Sword Skill of Body Technique — Flash Strike.
"Can't you do it another way? Idiot! "
Yasna shouted and punched Rozen's face without hesitation.
That incomparably angry look made Rozen, who was about to be attacked, couldn't help but have a thought.
"I didn't know she had such an expression."
