For the next few days, Eight-cloud Ink and Silica partnered up to level up.
To Silica's surprise and admiration, Eight-cloud Ink actually skipped the field and went straight to the labyrinth area to level up!
Even with the help of the Healer Familiar, Pina, it was still difficult for Silica to deal with the Novice Wild Boar, let alone those powerful Field Bosses.
And in the labyrinth area, even the common monsters were not much weaker than the field bosses!
"Brother Mo … you're really amazing …"
Silica, who was in a party with Eight-cloud Ink, had been leveling up in the labyrinth area with him, and her leveling speed was far faster than the average player.
Because of Pina's help and Eight-cloud Ink's intentional protection, Silica did not encounter any danger when she followed Eight-cloud Ink into the labyrinth area.
Most of the time, Eight-cloud Ink was the one who attracted the monster's aggro, and then killed it alone.
Pina, on the other hand, was responsible for healing Eight-cloud Ink's HP.
Although Silica felt guilty for not being able to help Eight-cloud Ink, Eight-cloud Ink gently patted the girl's head and comforted her, "Silica, you're also very good. If you didn't ask Pina to heal me, I wouldn't be able to level up in the labyrinth area so recklessly!"
Because of Eight-cloud Ink's help, Silica could focus on leveling up in the labyrinth area with Eight-cloud Ink.
The two of them were in a party, so even if the monster was killed by Eight-cloud Ink alone, Silica would still get a share of the EXP.
In SAO, not every player in a party could get all the EXP from killing a monster, but it would be adjusted according to the number of players in the party.
In a two-person party, each player would get 70% of the EXP from killing a monster.
In a three-person party, each player would get 65% of the EXP from killing a monster.
For every additional member in the party, the EXP share would decrease by 5%, and it would stop decreasing when it reached 50%.
Therefore, when players formed a party to level up, every member had to participate in the killing of monsters in order to obtain the most benefits.
For example, Eight-cloud Ink and Silica, all the monsters were killed by Eight-cloud Ink alone, while Silica was responsible for healing his HP, which more or less slowed down Eight-cloud Ink's leveling speed.
However, even if the leveling speed was slowed down, Eight-cloud Ink and Silica's leveling speed was still far faster than other players in a party.

Because Eight-cloud Ink was too good.
Even the monsters in the labyrinth area could rarely survive three rounds of attacks from him. Even the monsters in the labyrinth area.

Unknowingly, it has been a month since the launch of SAO.
For a month, Eight-cloud Ink and Silica came to the labyrinth area every day to level up and explore new maps. However, no matter how good Eight-cloud Ink was, he and Silica were only two people. They still couldn't find the room of the First Floor's Boss.
On this day, countless players received a message.
Someone was going to hold a meeting on how to defeat the First Floor's Boss in the First Floor's Conference Square.
"Brother Ink, should we go and have a look?"
Silica raised her head and looked at Eight-cloud Ink next to her.
After leveling with Eight-cloud Ink for a month, Silica knew very well that if Eight-cloud Ink joined them, they would definitely succeed in defeating the First Floor's Boss.
Over the past month, almost 2,000 players have died due to various accidents.
Whenever Silica thought of this number, she couldn't help but shudder. She looked at Eight-cloud Ink with great joy and admiration in her eyes.
"If it weren't for Brother Ink, maybe I would also die in an accident, right?"
At this time, Ba Yun Mo and Xili were in a town on the first floor, dealing with all kinds of items that they couldn't use from the monsters in the labyrinth area.
Although Silica had suggested setting up a stall to sell these items to players for a higher profit than selling them to NPC Shops, Eight Cloud Ink had rejected her suggestion.
He was not interested in spending a lot of time to set up a stall, and Eight-cloud Ink was also worried about Silica selling items alone.
Silica had no choice but to give up.
Looking at Silica, Eight-cloud Ink nodded.
"Okay, let's go and have a look!"
"Okay!" Silica smiled happily.
= = = I'm the divider for the meeting. = = =
Aincrad First Floor, Toubana.
In the center of the town, there was a building that looked like the Colosseum.
Today, there will be a meeting organized by players to discuss how to defeat the Boss of the First Floor.
When Eight-cloud Ink and Silica appeared in the meeting room, there were already a lot of players gathered in groups of twos and threes to discuss something.
Seeing Eight-cloud Ink and Silica's luxurious equipment, everyone was shocked.
Silica was a little scared and hid behind Eight-cloud Ink, trying to avoid the players' sight.
"Don't worry."
Eight-cloud Ink patted Silica's shoulder, then pulled her to the top of the stairs and sat down, quietly waiting for the meeting to begin.
After sitting down, Eight-cloud Ink took advantage of the geographical advantage and looked at the players in the meeting room.
Soon, his eyes were attracted by two people.
One of them was a black-haired young man with delicate features, and the other was a female player who was wearing a cloak, her face hidden.
Although he wasn't sure whether the youth was Kirito or not, Eight-cloud Ink was sure of the cloaked female's identity.
Asuna was the only one in the meeting room with a cloak covering her face.
As if she felt Eight-cloud Ink's gaze, Asuna moved and looked at Eight-cloud Ink.
Eight-cloud Ink immediately showed a friendly smile to Asuna.
"Clap! Clap! Clap! "
The sound of clapping suddenly attracted the attention of the players in the meeting room.
In the center of the meeting room, a blue-haired man wearing a knight's armor with a long sword on his waist said loudly: "Almost everyone is here! Then, let's begin the meeting! "
"Let me introduce myself. My name is Diablo, and as for my class, I'm a knight!"
"Hahahaha …"
There was a burst of laughter in the meeting room.
SAO doesn't have a strict professionalism, so Diaburu's words made everyone laugh.
After everyone stopped laughing, Diablo's face suddenly became serious.
"Everyone, not long ago, my companions and I found the boss's room in the labyrinth area!"
"Whoa ~"
Everyone was shocked.
"Really?"
"Are you kidding me?"
"You found the boss's room!?"
Diablo raised his arm and gestured everyone to be quiet, then he continued: "We must defeat the boss and reach the second floor!"
"No matter what, we must clear this game!"
"We must tell everyone that one day, we will leave this game of death alive!"
"Everyone! Since you're sitting here right now, don't you have the same idea!? "
Diablo raised his right hand and clenched his fist with a solemn expression.
"Isn't that right!?"
In the meeting room, the players looked at each other. Then, a burst of applause, from the initial sparse applause, then it became louder and louder!
The players roared in anger.
"Yes!"
"That's right! We must clear this game! "
"Reach the second floor!"
Looking at the excited players, Eight-cloud Ink smiled at Silica: "This Diablo is quite suitable to be a leader!"
"Yeah!" Silica said, "If there are more players like him, we will definitely be able to clear this game!"
Then she thought of something and turned to Eight-cloud Ink with a bright smile.
"Also, Brother Mo is here!"
"Haha …"
Seeing how much Silica trusted him, Eight-cloud Ink shook his head in embarrassment.
