This second dimension is too immortal

"Uh...."

I didn't expect this to happen. Zhao Si thought he could see the consciousness of another world, but the girl suddenly became wet?

However, the man ran away, but the girl named "Yui", who was used as a medium by the girl to talk to him, stayed.

Looking at the girl in front of him, Zhao Si thought for a moment and decided to keep the girl with him for the time being.

I don't know whose daughter this is. Let Zhao Wu and the others look for her when the time comes. After they find the child's parents, they can send her back.

Thinking of this, Zhao Si picked up the girl and prepared to activate his hidden skills to return to the false hell as usual.

however

"Oh, by the way, my game system has also disappeared..." Patting his head, Zhao Si remembered this fact.

The game system disappeared, and everything obtained through the game system naturally disappeared as well, including hidden skills. Zhao Si now has no way to return to the false hell for the time being.

"Forget it, then I'll stay in Aincrad first, so I can look for the child's parents." With this in mind, Zhao Si flew towards the teleportation square.

"Hurry, hurry, there are not enough people in the strategy team. Go and find more people, ordinary players are fine too." As soon as he arrived at the second floor, a familiar voice sounded in Zhao Si's ears.

Looking up, I saw a figure in red and white clothes directing the crowd to carry the unconscious player on the square on the second floor.

If one only looked at the style of her clothes, the famous "Ghost of Strategy" lady was once thought to have joined the Knights of the Blood Alliance.

However, people later found out that it was not Asuna who joined the Knights of the Blood Alliance, but someone simply had a bad taste and customized such a set of equipment for Asuna, just to retaliate against the leader of the Knights of the Blood Alliance who had tried to poach Asuna in public.

Zhao Si also knew about this matter, because Zhao Wu had specifically come to Zhao Si to complain about it, so it was hard for Zhao Si not to know about it.

"Ah, Mr. Zhao Si!"

Zhao Si walked out of the teleportation point. Asuna, who often paid attention to this place, saw him at once and ran to Zhao Si.

"Mr. Zhao Si, are you okay?" Asuna asked, looking at Zhao Si.

"It's okay, don't worry about me, just go do your own thing." Zhao Si said. He glanced around, and saw thin, unconscious players everywhere...even on the roof?

The corner of his mouth twitched, and Zhao Si felt a little helpless.

It's a world consciousness after all. Can you please be more sincere when doing things?

"Yeah." Asuna nodded. She was originally just worried about Zhao Si's condition. Now that Zhao Si is fine, she naturally has to go back and continue doing her own thing.

"Then I'll be leaving first... Huh?"

As Asuna was speaking, she glanced and suddenly saw the small figure in Zhao Si's arms, and couldn't help but exclaim in surprise.

It was a child. Asuna had seen this child when she saw Zhao Si. Now that the distance was so close, Asuna could see it even more clearly. It was a very cute girl.

However, the child was still unconscious before, but now, when Asuna took a glance, she saw that the girl had woken up.

Not only did she wake up, but she saw the girl staring at her with her dark eyes.

That look, Asuna wondered if it was just an illusion, but she felt like she had seen it somewhere before, as if...

Suddenly realizing what the girl's gaze looked like, Asuna remembered.

It was like a newborn bird seeing its mother in an animal documentary.

Chapter 525 Konno Mumenji

Regarding the phenomenon of confusing reality with virtuality, Zhao Si believes that this situation did not happen overnight. Just like the current situation, Aincrad, which was originally a virtual game world, is now slowly transforming from virtuality to reality.

Zhao Si didn't know the reason for this change, and he hadn't had time to ask the World Consciousness before. However, since the other party didn't show any concern about this situation, then in the other party's cognition, this might not be an abnormal situation.

Aincrad, born from human technology in the surface world, is a virtual world full of sword and fantasy style. Perhaps at the beginning of its birth, the mysterious power had already cast the same illusion in the inner world, and then as time went by, the illusion will eventually emerge in the inner world.

Of course, this transformation takes time. Right now, only the first floor of Aincrad is undergoing this change, from a virtual world to a real world, where the NPCs and monsters that originally existed will become flesh-and-blood creatures.

However, as a game world, the most special existence in it - the players, their situation is not as simple as turning virtual into real.

The 22nd floor of Aincrad.

Thanks to his previous experience of fishing in the fake hell, Zhao Si would run to No. 22 to fish and do other things when he had nothing to do.

Now, although he cannot return to the false hell for the time being, fortunately, the 22nd floor of Aincrad can also allow Zhao Si to do his own things while fishing.

"Zhao Si! Zhao Si!"

Zhao Si was fishing with one hand and operating a furnace-like device beside him with the other. At this moment, a cheerful voice came from a distance.

The voice was like that of a lark, cheerful and joyful. Just by hearing the voice, the figure of the owner of the voice couldn't help but appear in Zhao Si's mind.

Turning around, he saw, as expected, a purple figure was running towards him on the distant road like a fluttering butterfly.

The girl looked no more than twelve or thirteen years old, with long purple hair and most of the clothes she wore were purple.

Yuuki, this is the girl's game ID, and her real name is Konno Kimonoki. She is the vice president of a guild called "Sleeping Knight" in the strategy group.

Logically speaking, apart from Zhao Wu and others, Zhao Si rarely interacted with other players. After all, he could only maintain level one in Aincrad, which meant he had nothing to do. Therefore, he usually stayed in the fake hell and rarely interacted with players other than Zhao Wu and others.

As for Konno Kumaki, Zhao Si actually only got to know her recently.

"It's this child..."

After confirming that the person who came was indeed who he thought, Zhao Si waved in the direction of Youji, and then turned his attention to the alchemy furnace in front of him again.

"Zhao Si, Zhao Si! It's successful, it's really successful!!" On the other side, Yuki quickly came to Zhao Si. The lively girl didn't even stop and spoke to Zhao Si excitedly, her little face flushed.

"That person recovered quickly after taking the pills you gave me! Not only that, her original illness was also cured! She really stood up!!" Yuki seemed to be very excited. She walked back and forth while talking, and clenched her fists from time to time, fully reflecting the joy in her heart.

"Yeah, that's not bad."

Upon hearing this, Zhao Si was not as excited as Youji, because he was very confident in the pills he had refined. If Zhao Si's talent in formation was the reverse "extraordinary talent", then his talent in refining pills and weapons was positive.

As long as what he refines can be recognized by the game system and can be used by players, then the problem can definitely be solved. This is Zhao Si's confidence.

Speaking of alchemy, it is actually inextricably linked to the acquaintance between Zhao Si and You Ji.

Just like Zhao Si’s situation, the players who were originally on the first level were also affected when the first level was transformed into the real world.

However, unlike NPCs who have become real creatures, players already exist in reality. They only enter the game world through their consciousness through gaming devices, while their real bodies are still in the surface world.

As for the first level of changes, for those players, they did not directly transform into real existences like those NPCs, but were restored to their true appearance.

So what do the players really look like?

The answer was, of course, the person who had been paralyzed in bed due to a long coma, relying on nutrient solution to stay alive. He was emaciated and extremely weak.

Therefore, rather than saying that these people have returned to their true appearance, it is better to say that as the first layer becomes the real world, these people have truly traveled into this world with both body and soul, and have truly become part of Aincrad.

However, having said that, the good news is that when these people were transported to floors other than the first floor, their gaming systems returned!

This situation made the originally difficult follow-up work of Zhao Wu and others easier, because they found that after these people's game systems returned, the recovery items in the game could have an effect on these people's weak physical conditions!

This is very comfortable. There were originally 5,000 people, and each of them was in an extremely weak state. It would be very troublesome and manpower-consuming to take care of them.

But the current situation is not so troublesome. As long as those people do not have any particularly serious diseases and are just physically weak, they can quickly return to normal with the help of recovery items.

However, among the 5,000 people in the first floor, it is impossible for every one of them to be healthy. Some people already have serious illnesses.

Like these people, and some players whose conditions were not serious originally, but suddenly became seriously ill after this incident.

For these people, recovery items can only restore their weak bodies, but are powerless against the diseases in their bodies.

Among these people is Yuuki's sister, Konno Aiko.

Originally a member of the Clearers group and the guild leader of the Sleeping Knights, Konno Aiko usually spends most of her time on the front lines.

However, on the day when changes occurred on the first floor, Konno Aiko happened to have a mission to hand over on the first floor. Because of this, Konno Aiko became one of the five thousand people.

Konno Aiko and Konno Konnoki, these are the names of the two sisters. Besides, no one knows that they are actually HIV patients, also known as AIDS, except for the members of the Sleeping Knights guild.

As their conditions worsened, they adopted virtual treatment methods at the advice of their attending physician and became the subjects of the world's first fully submersible machine for medical use.

With the sudden emergence of Sword Art Online "SAO", the two of them entered the game together and have been fighting ever since.

With the influence of the first level of changes, Konno Aiko also returned to her real-life state. She was already ill, and with the help of medical equipment, her real-life body could still hold on for a while.

But now, without medical equipment, she was in an extremely weak condition, like a fragile, cracked glass that could break at any time.

This also made Yuki very sad and even desperate. At first, she even thought about dying with her sister.

But in the end, the girl finally saw the light.

Faced with the situation of these players, Zhao Wu and her friends were naturally helpless. After all, the world of virtual games was still a world of swords and knives. They couldn't think of a solution even if they racked their brains.

However, they still have Zhao Si as their backup. What if they can't solve any problem? Then they can find Zhao Si. This is Zhao Wu's usual course of action. No matter what, she believes that she can find a solution to the problem from Zhao Si.

Zhao Wu told Zhao Si about this matter. As for Zhao Si, if he had not gone to the first floor and the game system on his body had not disappeared, then he really had no way out.

But now...

What? Human diseases?

Well, for things like this, why not just take one of the Ten-Herbs Tonic Pills from the Refining Furnace? It will definitely cure the disease.

Just kidding, the Ten-Herbs Tonic Pill is actually just like a recovery item, and it is probably useless for HIV.

However, there is no doubt that Zhao Si can indeed refine elixirs that can cure most incurable diseases.

After Zhao Wu mentioned it to him, Zhao Si immediately started refining the pills and made the first batch of pills.

As for Youji, she and Zhao Si met through this incident.

The girl didn't know which mouse she heard the news from. When she heard the news, she felt like dry weeds that had found water. The black fog of despair in her heart was dispelled, and the girl saw the dawn of hope.

As members of the same strategy group, Yuki was no stranger to Zhao Wu and Asuna, having registered as friends with each other. After learning that Zhao Si could be found through Asuna, Yuki immediately contacted them and eventually managed to meet Zhao Si.

After Zhao Si successfully refined the first batch of pills, Youji also followed him to witness the situation of the person who used the medicine.

Among the first group of people who took the drug, there was a girl whose condition was quite serious. She had ALS, which was incurable according to the medical capabilities in the real world at that time. Like HIV, it was an incurable disease. This girl was also the one that Yuki was most concerned about.

If the elixir refined by Zhao Si can really cure the girl's ALS, then is there hope for her sister's HIV as well?

With anticipation in his heart, Yuuki finally witnessed the girl standing up again.

At that moment, not only the girl cried, but Yuki also cried, because the hope before her was not a fantasy in her dreams, but real and tangible.

Chapter 526 Untitled

"Come to think of it, those people's game systems recovered after leaving the first floor, but why haven't you recovered yet, brother?"

On the shore of the lake on the 22nd floor of Aincrad, Zhao Wu squatted beside Zhao Si and asked curiously.

Unlike others, although Zhao Si was also affected by the first level of changes, his game system has not yet recovered.

"Gaming system? What's the point of restoring that?"

Hearing this, Zhao Si glanced at Zhao Wu, then casually threw a red herb into the alchemy furnace beside him.

"To be honest, I can do much more now than before. I have finally broken free from the constraints of the rules of the game. Why should I recover? It's like I have nothing to do after eating." Zhao Si said.

"Uh...."

Zhao Wu was stunned when she heard this. She pondered the meaning of Zhao Si's words and said in surprise after a while:

"Hey, brother, are you saying that the reason your game system didn't recover was because of you?"

Can this really be done?

"Ah."

Hearing this, Zhao Si chuckled, and then he waved his hand, and a blue light appeared in front of Zhao Wu.

"This is..."

Zhao Wu stood up and looked at Zhao Si's surroundings with surprise.

Countless blue data lights with a strong sci-fi feel were constantly surrounding Zhao Si, like moths attracted by the light, trying to swarm into Zhao Si's body. A white halo enveloped the two-meter area around Zhao Si, completely blocking out those data lights.

"Because I originally connected to this game world directly through the game terminal, and because of the system mission, I had no objection, so it was able to integrate into my soul. The rules of the world must have restricted my state in Aincrad."

As he spoke, Zhao Si looked at Zhao Wu and continued to explain:

"Weren't you curious about why I was at level 100 in the Fake Hell? Now it seems that it's probably because the Fake Hell is actually a real world. The rules of the virtual game world have limited influence on me, and the power of my soul has been unleashed."

If the strength of the Yuanying stage cultivator's soul is converted into game data, then wouldn't it be a simple matter to reach level 100? This is because the upper limit of the level of this game is 100. Even if it is higher, Zhao Si will still be at the maximum level.

"If it had always been like this, it would be fine. No matter how powerful my soul is, facing the suppression of the rules, I can only follow them. In Aincrad, I can only maintain the level one state...but."

Zhao Si laughed. "The change on the first level not only eliminated the rules of the game world that had been integrated into my soul, but also sent my physical body here."

"Now, unless I want to, these things will never be able to enter my body and become the so-called game system."

"There is such a thing. Wow, if that's the case, if I go to the first floor, will my body in Gensokyo also be teleported here?" Zhao Wu said curiously.

"Well, the first floor should be useless now. The changes over there have ended. If you really want, you can wait for the second floor, but I'm saying this first."
