Ain Grandet, 55th floor.

This is a snowy area.

The practice area is a dry wilderness with very few plants.

Directly below is the beautiful conical snow-capped mountains.

There is a small village a little further away.

On the other side of the vast snowfield and the deep forest, the sharp roofs of each household in the main street area are side by side, looking like chimneys, quite distinctive.

Luo Zhen came out of the maze area standing in the distance, teasing the two demons, while slowly walking towards the main block of "Gransam" on the 55th floor.

Gransam is also known as the Iron Capital.

Because, unlike other towns that are mostly made of stone, the main buildings of this town are huge spires, built with steel flashing with black light. The smelting and gold carving crafts are quite prosperous, resulting in many players who exercise production skills settling here, but there are no streets with streets without street trees at all. In this season when autumn is getting stronger, it makes people feel that the wind is particularly cold when it blows.

Luo Zhen was walking on the streets of this city, moving forward under the gaze of pedestrians, holding a newspaper in his hand, watching the latest reports.

"The (Knights of Blood Alliance) who are affiliated with the strategy group will set up a base on the 55th floor that they have arrived recently, and use the 55th floor as the guild headquarters?"

Luo Zhen was reading this latest news, and while scratching his head, he couldn't help but shrugging.

"Do you really plan to fully implement the cold steel impression when you choose this place as your headquarters?"

After nearly a year, the number of personnel in the strategy team has increased much more than before. If the part that does not usually attend is calculated, there will be hundreds of people.

In the past year, (The Knights of Blood Alliance) has also absorbed many powerful players, replaced many eliminated players, and finally maintained at the level of dozens of people.

Although there are only a few dozen people, the strength of the (Blood Alliance Knights) is undoubtedly unquestionable. The members are extremely powerful. Asuna, as the deputy leader, has such a well-known title as (Flash), not to mention Hitzcliff, who (Sacred Sword). Even though the game has been operating for nearly a year and a half, it is still confirmed that he only holds unique skills. Naturally, players cannot think that they are not strong.

Even because of the existence of the (Blood Alliance Knights), players have gradually compared (Red Wings) with (Blood Alliance Knights), believing that (Blood Alliance Knights) are stronger, so they should be the strongest guild in Sao.

In fact, in terms of strength, there is really no gap between the two sides.

Regarding the members of the group, there are only dozens of people, whether they are (Red Wings) or (Blood League Knights), both sides are taking the elite route, and one side only collects the players in the blockade, and the other side is particularly strict and picky, so the members in the guild are very strong, and their strength ranks among the top in the strategy group.

Regarding high-end players, there is Kirito in (Red Wings) and Asuna in (Blood League Knights). Both sides have enough strength to rank in the top five in the strategy group. Perhaps Kirito is better, but Asuna will not be much weaker than Kirito.

Regarding the president, Luo Zhen and Hitzcliff are both legendary figures.

One is to use two magic weapons, and even the guard boss can be firmly controlled, making it a target, and he has a very high leadership ability and has maintained a record of no losses to the strategy (the magician).

One is that he has a unique skill, both in defense and attack power, which is extremely high, and is above all players. Even in the 50th floor, which was extremely terrifying, he fought against the boss of the lower level alone for ten minutes, and there was a vaguely known as the strongest player (Sacred Sword).

Both sides have their own strengths and are often compared by players.

In view of this, there are often rumors that (Red Wings) and (Blood Alliance Knights) have been preparing to compete for the name of the strongest guild.

Especially Luo Zhen and Asuna, one is the president of (Red Wings) and the other is the deputy leader of (The Knights of Blood League), representing the two guilds, but often have disputes at the strategy meetings of the strategy group. It is normal for people to think like this.

Thanks to this, the hostility of Zahad (United of the Holy Dragons) who has been staring at the name of the strongest guild is also increasing. Recently, it is also very common for Zahad to find Asuna to trouble him at the strategy meeting.

In a nutshell...

“It’s been a turbulent moment recently.”

Luo Zhen put away the newspaper in his hand, and while leaving such comments, he stepped into Gransam's transfer gate square with the fingers and discussions from the players on the roadside.

"Transfer! Panarese!"

With the appearance of the transfer effect light, Luo Zhen returned from the 55th floor to the 24th floor and headed to the base where his guild was located.

Of course, the voices surrounding Luo Zhen's fingers and discussions became more and more complicated.

"After nearly a year, this floor is no longer just two floors away from the front line, but has fallen to the middle floor."

Luo Zhen looked at the crowd around him who seemed much more lively than on the 55th floor, and thought to himself.

"Is it time to change the base?"

Otherwise, if you keep taking Caidian and Huadian on the street like this, you will be recognized. If you have so many fingers and comments appear, it would be a little annoying.

Not to mention, setting the base at the lower level will also cause a lot of trouble.

Not to mention anything else, there are many middle and even lower players who come to join the guild and ask to join the guild. It is really troublesome to refuse one by one. It is more appropriate to move the base to the high floor.

"I remember there are still a lot of operating funds in the guild. The last time I hunted the boss in the exercise area, the spoils I had not been allocated yet. Find some time to solve them."

Thinking of such a thing, Luo Zhen returned to the bar.

"jingle!"

Amid the pleasant ringtone, Luo Zhen pushed open the bar door and walked in.

At this time, members of the guild should be hunting in the maze area, which makes the bar empty, right?

"Gu!"

"Woo!"

Caidie and Huadie flew into the bar, and they were familiar with each other and occupied the counter.

But when Luo Zhen thought there was no one in the guild, someone spoke to Luo Zhen.

"You...you are back..."

Some panicked sounds came from a player sitting in front of the bar.

I saw Kirito sitting on the bar, holding a drink in his hand, looking a little panicked.

“Hoho…”

Luo Zhen was stunned at first, then showed a sly smile.

Because, in the guild, Kirito is not the only one.

"Luo...President Luo Zhen..."

A girl greeted Luo Zhen under such an extremely nervous voice.

Luo Zhen naturally wouldn't miss this girl.

It is the member of the Black Cat Group (Moonlight Night).

At this time, Kirito and Yuki were sitting in front of the counter of the bar, and were very close, as if they could be together at any time. At first glance, there was an ambiguous atmosphere inside.

Luo Zhen still doesn’t know what happened in this situation?

"Sorry, I'm disturbing."

At that moment, Luo Zhen immediately answered, turned around and prepared to walk out of the bar.

"etc!"

Kirito ran out.
Chapter completed!
