Chapter 58 - Information Materialization (2/2)
Under the blood-colored sky, the terrifying death god who appeared from the massive drop of blood said so. Such a declaration, no one would believe it at first.
No, Asuna refuses to believe. The fear of death was instinctively rejecting. Ten hours after the death announcement, there were still many people waiting.
They thought this must be a mistake. Yes, yes, this must be just a joke made by the operator.
Maybe, they would be able to go out later, and then they must be angry with them “how can you do such a prank!”. However, ten hours have passed since the death announcement, and She still could not log out.
Asuna was desperate. She squatted helplessly in a dark corner, surrounded by noisy panic and anger. Asuna held her arms tightly, staring at the blank interface without blinking, where the logout button was original. Then appeared the words’ Dimensional Chat Room’.
This made her tremble, and Asuna clicked in hopefully.
……
【】(Sora) explained, “We are not a game developer, nor an operator, so literally, we are people from other dimensions. But speaking of game developers… Kayaba Akihiko, who is too obsessed with his childhood dreams, is trying to realize the fantasy of a ‘floating castle in the air’ in the virtual world. Well, I cannot understand his persistence. If there is a chance, Even if I fight for my life, I will make a similar move.”
Asuna shocked, “Are you kidding me? The game world is dead, and the high-power signal components buried in the helmet in the real world will burn the brain. This is murder!”
【】(Sora) tried to calm her down, “But don’t worry, do you know that Humanoid Interface? No human being is her opponent in terms of information and data. Even if the virtual level of the entire human world is advanced for hundreds of years, it cannot be The opponent of Humanoid Interface.”
“???”
Humanoid Interface? Is a master in the field of information? Although Asuna did not know what was going on, she finally heard the good news.
Sure enough, the outside world began a rescue operation. Moreover, this chat room was the best evidence.
Asuna felt like weeping with joy. She initially felt that this world should be dark, but it suddenly brightened at this moment.
Blue Sky said, “I probably don’t know. Talking about “Haruhi Suzumiya” to Asuna in 2022 is like talking about “Holy Biography” to the post-00s.”
【】(Sora) asked, “Asuna stopped talking. Do you doubt the authenticity of our story? Me too, dimensional chat room or something, it’s too much.”
Blue Sky disagreed, “Huh? Do you doubt it? I think you accepted it quickly.”
【】(Sora) replied, “You can’t just say everything naggingly.”
Asuna begged, “Please stop joking.” And asked, “Did the game crack smoothly? How long will we get out?”
Blue Sky answered, “Peace of mind, I have connected to your world’s network, Humanoid Interface has begun to analyze the built-in code of Sword Art Online, and it will soon liberate you.”
Hearing these words, Asuna’s tight heart finally relaxed. Ye You was slapped in the face as soon as he said what he said.
Humanoid Interface typed, “Can’t liberate them from the virtual world.”
“What?” Ye You were shocked. “The firewall set by Akihiko Kayaba, can’t even your breakthrough?”
Couldn’t you? Information bodies were intelligent beings that have existed since the birth of the universe. Information is interconnected to form a colossal information network. How could it be at a loss for the human network in 2022?
Humanoid Interface said, “No. The simple coding information has been deciphered. But there are more serious things.”
The informant explained, “Since just now, I have observed that ‘Aincrad,’ a floating formation composed entirely of data that should have only existed in the virtual world, tends to transform into an entity.”
【】(Sora) asked, “Fantastical manifestation?”
Humanoid Interface answered, “No, it’s information, materialization.”
Blue Sky asked, “Does this have anything to do with the inability to liberate the people trapped in the game?”
Humanoid Interface answered, “These ten thousand people are the continuous hub of ‘reality’ and ‘virtual.’ If they are liberated, ‘Aincrad’ may fully manifest.”
Blue Sky was curious, “What are the consequences of this?”
Humanoid Interface replied, “In the worst case, the world collapses.”
