They asked a group of young and promising boys and girls to face an unknown and terrifying enemy.

Thinking of this, Dick couldn't help but sigh.

"This... is just my personal opinion. Captain Asuna, you can withdraw to Hedunmar with us. As long as we hand over some resources, the principality will not make it too difficult for us adventurers."

"Dick, you!"

This is different from what we said before.

The other group leaders just wanted to say this, but immediately took it back. These words cannot be said in front of these little devils.

Not everyone has good intentions in their hearts. What most people want is to preserve the strength of their adventure group. As for the dangers that may occur in the future?

Oh, I can't survive now, so why talk about the future?

As for dividing half of the harvest to the Flash Adventure Group, there is no problem. If this group of brats can successfully defeat Di Ruiji, it means that they can't afford to offend them at all, so they will give it to them.

But if the crusade fails, then the so-called divided half will not have to be distributed according to the rules. What you should get, you will still get.

This is very strange. It is obviously the same conclusion, but the starting point is different, which gives people a completely different feeling. In the final analysis, human beings are emotional creatures.

"..."

Asuna lowered her head and was silent for a while, then spoke softly.

"I understand, and thank you for your advice, Commander Dick. But we can't just retreat."

"......Yeah."

Dick smiled bitterly, and then said solemnly: "Unless I get official news of your death, I will always keep the parts that belong to you. Anyone who dares to have other thoughts is going against our Angry Flame Adventure Group!"

"I also sincerely wish you, Captain Asuna, a triumphant return."

"Well, thank you."

Looking at Dick and others who turned away and began to direct the team members to sort out supplies, Asuna couldn't help but shake her head. She understood that the other party had misunderstood something. However, she did not need to explain so much to the other party.

Perhaps in Dick's eyes, they are heroes who are willing to stand up for other people in the principality. In the eyes of other adventure group leaders, they are little brats looking for death who don't know the boundaries of heaven and earth.

Only they know that they are just players. Players who have to take risks in order to return to their hometown.

A player who was involved in a huge conspiracy and turned into a chess piece without knowing it.

How can the advancement or retreat of a chess piece be decided by the chess piece itself? The real decider is always the chess player behind it.

"Asuna..."

"I'm fine, don't worry, Yuuki, everyone."

Smiling softly, Asuna looked at her friends: "We don't have many choices. No matter what is waiting for us ahead, all we can do is move forward."

"The power of Duke Yuris is estimated to be at the beginning to intermediate level of awakening. We can defeat such terrifying enemies with special abilities head-on. This shows that enemies above awakening are not so out of reach.

"

"Kirito, what do you think?"

".....Yes."

Kirito understood that morale must not be undermined at this time: "Moreover, we are not ordinary job changers, we are players. As players, our biggest advantages are tactics, coordination and the skills brought out from the new ALO!"

"Ran's dual cast, Yuki's Holy Mother's Chant, Asuna's Star Tears, and my two-sword style. These are the key weapons for us to defeat the apostles."

"As the master of Yuris just now, Di Ruigi's ability will inevitably be more difficult to deal with. Therefore, we must first conduct observation and testing, and collect intelligence before proceeding with the strategy."

"Strike the Boss, isn't this what we are best at?"

Kirito put the black and white swords behind his back and showed a confident smile.

"Furthermore, we are led by that shining one! Even Ran and Yuuki, who have not experienced the SAO incident, I believe they all know how reliable and excellent Asuna's command is, right?"

"Ah! Thanks to Asuna, our Sleeping Knight can fulfill our wish! Asuna is our benefactor!"

"So everyone, believe in our own strength and believe in what we have accumulated so far."

Kirito stretched out his hand and said seriously: "The Flash Adventure Group will win!"

"......That's right, since Mr. Tong said so."

"I believe in Asuna's command, and I also believe in everyone's strength."

One hand after another, they overlapped Kirito's right hand. Seeing this, Asuna smiled softly and placed her hand on top.

"Then let's get ready!"

"This may be the most difficult battle we have ever fought, but it will also be a battle in which we surpass ourselves!"

"Flash Adventure Group...."
