Aincrad.
Tang Hao stood on the edge of the square, looking through thousands of miles of clouds, looking at the cities and villages in the distance, as well as the endless mountains and the earth, his heart was suddenly filled with emotion.
This was not the first time he came to Aincrad. He remembered the first time he came here, he was just a penniless otaku. Because of a coincidence, he entered the chatroom, and inexplicably shouldered the fate of the chatroom. Aincrad was just a stop on his road, but it was a very important stop.
Now that half a year has passed, he is not the same as before, and Aincrad has also become different from before.
"The decomposition of the barrier has reached the last layer, and in at most half an hour, the two worlds will completely merge … No, to be precise, Aincrad will be integrated into this world. At the same time, Aincrad will become the center of this world, an existence similar to the Holy Tower in the sky. "
"Equivalent to God?"
"Sort of." Kayaba Akihiko smiled, with a little pride in his eyes. "I have calculated according to the information you provided. If we calculate according to the intensity, the interference value of this world should not exceed 100, but now it has risen to 150. A small part of it is increased by the big tomb on the ground, but most of it is in Aincrad, because … this is the only place in the whole world where one can become a god."
"After the two worlds merge, it will no longer be just a game system, but an evolutionary system of life. Kirito is just the first to taste the forbidden fruit, but from now on, anyone can challenge this supreme life evolution."
"The people on the ground will continue to move toward this holy place, trying to come to this Holy Tower in the sky, and then find the opportunity to become a god here. Of course, they will not be as lucky as Kirito. Only a very small number of Children of Destiny will be able to complete the evolution of life, but even so, their Divine Spark will not be complete, because they will not be the first."
After listening to Kayaba Akihiko calmly, Tang Hao turned his head and looked at the huge holy tree behind him that seemed to connect to the sky. This is the 100th floor of Aincrad. Under Kayaba Akihiko's transformation, it replaced the original foundation with the last God's Job Quest, and the holy tree was the god's final experiment.
Climb to the top of the holy tree with your bare hands, pluck the brightest World Leaf at the top, and eat it. No matter what kind of life, you can evolve into a god.
But the power of the Holy Tree is limited, and the further it goes, the less divine power it can provide. Therefore, except for Kirito, who was the first to pick the World Leaf, no one else, even Asuna, who is currently undergoing the trial, can obtain a complete Divine Spark.
"There's one more thing, maybe it's the World's Will's leniency, a special port has appeared on our personal panel …" Kayaba Akihiko swiped his hand and showed his game's profile to Tang Hao. Tang Hao took a closer look and saw a new option in the lower right corner of the page that didn't exist before — — Quit the game.
"I've studied it, this option can be used normally. Of course, it hasn't been opened yet. We have to wait until we defeat the big tomb and confirm that Aincrad is the only holy place before it will be officially opened to all players. What do you think this means?" Kayaba Akihiko said.
"The competition of Wills." Tang Hao retracted his gaze and smiled indifferently, "This integrated world is composed of three worlds, SAO, Overlord, and the original world. In other words, it is composed of three World's Wills. Among them, SAO's World Will is the weakest, so in the beginning, it received a certain degree of protection from the chatroom, which prevented it from being swallowed by the other two World Wills. But it also has the strongest evolution potential, so when the three World Wills merged into one, it formed a competition similar to the rising faction and the conservative faction. "
"Let's put it this way …" Tang Hao drew a picture in the air, "SAO and Overlord are, after all, just evolved World's Wills of the game world. Whether it's accumulation or strength, they are much weaker than the original World's Will. Although their arrival brought some threat to the original World's Will, it also gave it the possibility of evolution. The interference value is the best evidence."
"That's why the original World's Will didn't destroy them, but tried to merge them, which led to the scenes we encountered before. At present, the merging process is almost over. This world is still dominated by the original World's Will. The two Wills of Overlord and SAO are equivalent to two new brains. They don't have the right to lead, but they have the influence to interfere with the evolution of the world. One side is evolving towards the direction of Overlord, and the other side is evolving towards the direction of SAO … "Speaking of this, Tang Hao looked back at Kayaba Akihiko and asked," If you are the original World's Will and can't decide which side to focus on, what would you do? "
Kayaba Akihiko answered without hesitation, "The weak are prey to the strong, and the winner is king."
"Bingo."
Tang Hao smiled and snapped his fingers, "So this is the result. The conflict between Aincrad and the Great Tomb is not only about the survival of the race, but also determines the direction of the world's evolution. The loser leaves the stage, and the winner leads the evolution of the world. This is the decision made by the World's Will, and whether it is Aincrad or the Great Tomb, they are just pawns on the board. "
"So that's how it is." Kayaba Akihiko suddenly understood. Although he was used to being a chess player, this time he was not dissatisfied with being used as a chess piece, because the chess player was the will of the world. As a mortal, being used as a chess piece by the will of the world was proof of his own value.
Tang Hao also didn't feel the slightest dissatisfaction. Although he was a chess piece, he was no different from a chess player.
Of course, he didn't come up with these things himself. He didn't have such knowledge. It was actually Amethyst who told him these things.
From the very beginning, Aincrad was protected by a barrier, to the later development of Aincrad and the Great Tomb, it was actually the process of competition and fusion between the three World's Wills.
No matter what the final result was, the three World Wills would not disappear because they had already merged into one. The conflict between the Great Tomb and Aincrad was only to determine the best direction of evolution. Once the result was decided, ordinary players would no longer be of any use, so they had the option to quit the game.
After all, the most important thing in Aincrad is not the players, but the Evolution Tree.
"So, who do you think will win in this evolution?" Kayaba Akihiko asked.
"Foolish theory." Tang Hao smiled slightly, "Isn't it obvious?"
As soon as Tang Hao's voice fell, on the square behind him, figures began to appear one by one.
Patchouli, Yakushi, Misaka Mikoto, Sakata Gintoshi, Zoro, Eluza, Ilya, Kuzuji Yuzu, Takamachi Naba, Amelia, Orochimaru … almost everyone with an interference value of less than 170 appeared.
Of course, there was no Kaguya of Mount Penglai, no Yuji, no Sandaiko, no Shizaki Kuzo, no Kouzo Kaze, no Hachii Eirin, no Aresta, and no Amethyst.
The final battle in the Small Circle World was started by Amethyst. At that time, not only did she gather all the members in the chat room, but she also brought a large number of combat power from each of the members' worlds. It was a true war of the best.
This time, the final battle with the Great Tomb was led by Tang Hao. The number of people gathered was only a small portion of the members in the chat room, and apart from him, there was almost no top-level combat power.
But even so, Tang Hao did not consider the problem of losing.
"Really, it's too exaggerated." Tang Hao smiled and shook his head, "I have already said that I alone am enough to attack the enemy's headquarters. You don't need to go with me."
"It's just that we want to go. Besides, there's no need for so many people to stay behind."
The war between Aincrad and the Great Tomb was imminent. Of course, the Great Tomb would not give up on attacking Aincrad. Moreover, they had infiltrated and attacked Aincrad many times before, causing a certain number of casualties. Therefore, according to Tang Hao's strategy, he would attack the Great Tomb alone, and the rest of the members would be responsible for protecting Aincrad.
After all, it was impossible for the players to stop the Bone King's army.
But obviously, not everyone accepted this arrangement.
"Okay, then I'll just pick a few …" Tang Hao's gaze swept across the crowd and said, "Kirito, Mikoto, Naiba, the three of you, follow me."
The three that Tang Hao picked might not be the strongest, but they were the most suitable for attacking.
Needless to say, Misaka Mikoto had surpassed Patchouli in terms of combat power, and she did not have any obvious weaknesses. On the other hand, Kirito, who had completed his class advancement as a divine seed, had a qualitative breakthrough in his strength. His divinity was very effective against dark creatures.
As for Naiba Takamachi, although she had just joined the chatroom not long ago, she had a high starting point and improved very quickly. The battle with Fett had allowed her to complete the transformation from an ordinary person to a Magister. Her iron will allowed her to awaken her second soul almost at the same time as Kuang Three. Moreover, her huge amount of magic power allowed her to have high magic resistance and high cannon attacks. Excluding Tang Hao, her mid-range and long-range cannon attacks were the strongest among the people present.
As for the others, Patchouli was weak, her pearl was good at defense but not offense, and Ohmet did not have magic resistance, so they were not suitable for attacking.
"Then, count me in as well."
However, just when Tang Hao assigned the members to attack and defend, a voice suddenly sounded in the air.
Everyone subconsciously looked up and saw the towering holy tree suddenly emitting a divine light. A girl with four light wings and a thin sword in her hand descended from the sky.
Asuna, divine seed, class advancement successful.
