Now, Asuna finally understands why Yuuki brought everyone from "Sleeping Knight" to create unforgettable memories in ALO. To this end, she went to attack the defensive boss and left her name on the "Swordsman's Monument" .
The reason is not that everyone in the "Sleeping Knight" has something to do in the real world, so they have to disband the guild, but they have to disband the guild.
"Even if you enter the sterile room, you still cannot eliminate the bacteria and viruses that are already in your body. As the immune function declines, their power will continue to increase. Kapok Ji is now infected with cytomegalovirus and non-tuberculous mycobacteria. My vision has been almost completely lost, and the encephalitis caused by HIV is getting worse, and I can no longer move my body on my own."
"It has been fifteen years since I was infected with HIV, and three and a half years after AIDS developed. The symptoms of the kapok season are already at the end."
"At best, in a few months, the kapok season will probably have to say goodbye here and to this world."
Kurahashi's suppressed voice reached Asuna's ears, but it only made Asuna's mind go blank.
But this is the truth.
Yuuki is already dead.
Therefore, in order to leave unforgettable memories at the end, she and the people in the guild overcame such great difficulties, trying to defeat the defensive boss with just a few people and leave their names on the "Swordsman's Monument" .
And Yuuki left the world of ALO, no longer logged in, and kept a subtle distance from Asuna, unwilling to get too close to her, all in order to prevent the inevitable separation of life and death from causing Asuna pain. .
Recalling Yuuki's endlessly sad and nostalgic smile before she left, Asuna was so heartbroken that she couldn't breathe.
Only Luo Zhen took a deep breath and spoke like this.
"I think, not only Yuuki, but everyone in "Sleeping Knight" is like Yuuki, a seriously ill patient who can only live in a virtual world, right?"
Luo Zhen revealed this fact.
If this is not the case, then there is no way to explain that the rest of the "Sleeping Knights" are like Yuuki, possessing astonishing adaptability to complete stealth and extreme integration into the virtual world.
"The members of the so-called "Sleeping Knights" are all seriously ill players who met in the virtual world and depended on each other. Am I right?"
Luo Zhen looked at Cangqiao.
In response, Kurahashi nodded.
"In the original medical system network, there was a virtual shelter called "Tranquility Garden", where a variety of patients gathered. Even though their symptoms were different, in a broad sense, they all shared the same situation. A group of people can talk to each other, play games and spend the last part of their lives to the fullest in the VR world. That is the purpose of the server's operation."
This is where everyone in "Sleeping Knight" got to know each other.
"There seemed to be nine people at the beginning, but now three people are gone, so they decided to disband the guild when the next person disappeared." Cangqiao sighed: "And this year, including Kapok Season, there are no more people in that guild. Two people were declared to have only three months left..."
This is the real reason for the disbandment of "Sleeping Knight".
Regardless of whether it is Yuuki, Ajun, Tikki, Darkon, Xiaoji or Junie, they are all destined to leave that world sooner or later, or even leave this world and go to the kingdom of heaven.
That's why they are called - "Sleeping Knights".
"By the way, the name of the first president of that guild was Konno Aiko. She was also admitted to this hospital, but she was not similar to her twin sister. Her sister always smiled and quietly guarded the energetic and beautiful girl. My lively younger sister, in terms of appearance, she is somewhat similar to Miss Yuuki."
Kurahashi's words finally made Asuna shed tears.
"I'm not the strongest. The previous president was much stronger than me."
This is what Yuuki once said.
Now, Asuna fully understood how heavy these words were.
Konno Aiko.
Konno kapok season.
The former president mentioned by Yuuki and the first president mentioned by Kurahashi is clearly Yuuki's sister.
Twin sisters.
However, all the Konno family are infected with AIDS, and now Yuuki is probably the only one left.
"Why is this happening..."
Asuna couldn't stop her tears no matter what.
Luo Zhen looked at Asuna like this silently and said nothing.
After a while...
"I didn't expect that Asuna is actually a crybaby. She is obviously older than me."
When such a voice suddenly sounded, not only Asuna, but also Luo Zhen and Kikuoka Seijiro suddenly raised their heads and looked into the sterile room.
There, Yuuki was still lying motionless on the bed, but a blue light was flashing on a certain indicator facing the glass, and the words on the screen panel were different from a few seconds ago. "User" appeared. Talking" words.
Meaning - "The user is having a conversation".
"Yuki...!"
Asuna couldn't help but scream.
The next second, a familiar voice came from the microphone located above the glass wall.
"Well, I'm here, Asuna."
Yuuki's voice was as lively and cheerful as ever.
"Although it's through the lens, I can see you, Asuna. It's amazing. You look almost exactly like in the game. Thank you for coming to see me."
Yuuki's laughter became nostalgic and gentle.
"Yuki..."
Asuna bit her lip, trying her best not to let any more tears fall.
At this time, Luo Zhen also stepped forward.
"I won the bet."
Luo Zhen said this with a faint smile.
"Yes, I am really unwilling to lose to you again." Yuuki said with a smile: "But I am also very happy that you can come to see me. It has been a long time since anyone has come to see me in the ward in the real world."
The content of these words was obviously so sad, but Yuuki still said it in a lively and cheerful voice, which made people feel so distressed that they couldn't breathe.
At this time, Yuuki turned to Asuna again.
"I'm sorry, Asuna." Yuuki's voice became lower and she said, "Originally, we really didn't want to leave you with bad memories. If we had known it would turn out like this, I wouldn't have should... "
Before he finished speaking, Asuna immediately interrupted.
"That's not the case!" Asuna shook her head and said, "I never thought this was a bad memory. I'm really happy to be able to meet you Yuki and help you defeat the defensive boss. Happy."
"...Really?" Yuuki was silent for a while, and then said with satisfaction: "Your words are enough. I am already very satisfied and have no regrets."
"Yuki!" Asuna listened to Yuuki's words that were like parting, and tears flowed down again.
"Okay, don't cry anymore, Asuna." Yuuki said gently and helplessly: "Luo Zhen, you don't care. As a fiancé, you can't let your wife shed tears all the time."
Yuuki deliberately teased.
Luo Zhen suddenly smiled.
"That's really sorry." Luo Zhen said: "Next, I'm afraid Asuna will have to cry as much as she wants. I will never care about crying for joy."
Such words made everyone stunned.
"Cry tears of joy?"
No one understood the meaning of this sentence.
But Luo Zhen had already turned to Cangqiao.
"Can you let me go into the sterile room, doctor?"
Luo Zhen suddenly asked.
"No, if you enter, then..."
Cangqiao frowned almost subconsciously, preparing to refuse on the spot.
But what Luo Zhen said next shocked everyone.
"I have a way to save her."
