Simultaneous travel: invincible from the beginning of the anime!

Chapter 600 Kirito: Seiya, can't you be as devoted as I am?
As for the character name, Seiya hesitated for a moment before finally entering the ID "Wenren Sword Dojo".

Since the purpose is to advertise the family's swordsmanship dojo, let's be straightforward and simple.

Seiya, who completed character creation in less than ten minutes, quickly entered the "Shangri-La Border".

Unlike SAO, when you complete character creation in Shangri-La, you will not be directly teleported to the town, but will be randomly teleported to the surrounding newbie area.

When Seiya entered the game, he was teleported to a mountain forest.

Feeling the wind blowing in his face and smelling the earthy scent in the air, Seiya couldn't help but be a little surprised.

No wonder Kirito said that "Shangri-La Frontier" is the most popular masterpiece virtual reality game recently.

The virtual technology and physics engine used in this game have almost reached the point of being indistinguishable from reality.

He brandished the beginner's longsword given to him by the system, and the natural realism of it made Seiya almost unable to distinguish whether he was in a game or in reality.

"Kirito is right, the game's physics engine and virtual technology are indeed amazing."

If the unique monster he described is indeed as powerful as he claims, then that would truly be something to look forward to.

When I played SAO, Seiya was a complete newbie to virtual games.

But after experiencing SAO, ALO, and GGO, even if he's not a seasoned veteran, he's not completely ignorant about virtual games anymore.

However, Seiya knew nothing about the game "Shangri-La Border" before.

So, looking at the mountains and forests in front of him, Seiya, who was at a loss for what to do, could only bring up the game menu and find the function to search and add friends.

Using the same game ID throughout seems to be a preference of many veteran gamers.

Kirito has always used the ID "Kirito" in the game.

However, when Seiya opened the friend search bar and entered "Kirito", the game menu displayed "No such person found".

There are generally only two possibilities for this situation: either Kirito used a different ID this time, or that guy hasn't created his character yet.

Seiya thinks the former is unlikely, since the ID "Kirito" has special significance for Kirito. Unless there are special circumstances, he would not change his alias so easily.

If we eliminate the first possibility, then the only thing Seiya can think of is that Kirito is obsessed with character customization, which is why the character hasn't been created yet.

"Tsk, we clearly agreed to meet at eight o'clock, I don't know what kind of trouble that guy is up to this time."

So what if she looks a little effeminate? Is it really necessary to deliberately make the character model look masculine and mature every time?

After glancing at the forest before him and then at the beginner's iron sword in his hand, Seiya hesitated for a moment before finally closing the menu and stepping into the forest.

Waiting is just too boring, after all, he doesn't know how deep Kirito's obsession with his looks is.

Moreover, if we include the two years he was trapped in SAO, Seiya is now at least a pro at playing virtual games for two and a half years.

Even without reading the game background introduction and beginner's guide for "Shangri-La Border", a mere beginner area shouldn't be too difficult for him, right?

Meanwhile, shortly after Seiya entered the forest alone, Kirito, on the other side, finally managed to shake off the troublesome Suguha. He only realized how late it was after checking the time – 8:10 PM. Quickly entering the game, Kirito didn't waste much time creating his class and character ID, finishing quickly.

As for character modeling, he had already searched for the corresponding "tough guy" parameters online, so he completed the detailed adjustments in less than ten minutes.

Once in the game, Kirito's first thought was to add Seiya as a friend and find a place to meet up.

However, when he tried to use the game's friend search function, he found that he couldn't find Seiya at all.

The reason is quite simple. Kirito tried all the IDs Seiya had used before, whether it was "Wenren Shengzai" or "Golden Young Lion," but the final result was always "No such person found."

According to what Suguha said before, Seiya should have already entered the game.

So the fact that he can't find anyone now can only mean that Seiya has changed to a new ID again.

"Damn it, can't Seiya be a little more devoted like me?"

Changing his ID for every game, he's just as promiscuous as he is. No wonder he's using Asuna, Sinon, and Leafa all over again.

After trying many times, Kirito finally gave up and decided to reach the beginner town "Fastia" in the game guide first tonight.

At their current level, it's too early for them to challenge or even conquer unique monsters.

As for the character ID, you can ask Seiya himself offline tomorrow; it's the same thing.

One of the beginner zones in Shangri-La, located in the chaotic mountains and forests.

At this moment, Seiya was wearing a beginner's outfit and holding a red longsword, dodging an attack from a large group of digging lizards.

Digging Lizard, LV: 5
These are social monsters that inhabit the undersides of the Wild Forest. They have hard scales that can withstand physical attacks and are quite irritable. If provoked, they may be attacked by a group of monsters.

Skills: "Stone Throw", "Blade Claw Strike", "Bite"

After entering this so-called Forest of Madness, Seiya easily killed several small goblins and raised his level to level three.

After accidentally wandering into a cave, he inadvertently attracted a large group of monsters called "Digging Lizards".

With Seiya's awareness and skill, even killing ordinary monsters two levels higher than him should have been an easy task.

However, the crux of the matter is that after he killed one burrowing lizard, it was as if he had stirred up a hornet's nest, as more than a dozen burrowing lizards suddenly appeared and chased after him, biting him.

Moreover, if they were all just ordinary monsters, that would be one thing, but among these giant lizards that are half a meter long, there is one with crimson scales all over its body, nearly a meter long, and that can breathe fireballs.

Digging Salamander, LV5
This special individual, which inhabits the underground burrowing lizards of the Wild Forest, not only possesses hard scales but also has the power to wield fire, having fed on special minerals for many years.

Skills: "Fireball", "High Temperature", "Bite"

Although both are level 5 monsters, fire lizards are significantly more troublesome than ordinary lizards.

Seiya's beginner iron sword was used to strike the opponent, but it was melted after only a few hits because the opponent's "exposed body heat" skill caused its durability to drop to zero.
