On the small notice, a picture was clearly presented.

It was a huge floating city, and the incomparably magnificent and atmospheric giant city was suspended in the air, making people feel small.

Floating City – Ayn Grant!

I'll go!! The city...... Is it in reality, or in a virtual imaginary world?

If it's the former, that's a lot of fun......

An Zhe's eyes widened, and he didn't know what to do for a while.

"Huh? What's wrong? It's just the name of the place in the game, is there anything to be surprised about......" Mikoto Misaka looked at An Zhe with a strange expression.

An Zhe was confused in his heart, and only came to his senses after hearing the girl's words.

Whew、、、 it's really a game! It really scared the hell out of me!!

"Uh...... No, nothing. I'm just wondering what this has to do with the midterm exams for those who are able......"

An Zhe's rational personality hurriedly explained like this, but saw Shirai Kuroko looking at him with a puzzled expression.

"Don't you know, this midterm exam for the Capable will be held in this imaginary world."

Ha?

What's going on......

Didn't that say it was a game? Exams held in-game?

You make me embarrassed by the hundreds of millions of students of the Great Heavenly Empire?!

……

With a strange face and a short time after separating from the two, An Zhe waited for Sento Isuzu.

An Zhe originally wanted to use his mobile phone to carefully check the information of Floating City, but seeing this, he had to put this matter aside for the time being.

But he was really tickled by this.

I can't help it, it's an imaginary world!

In his previous life, as a dead house, the house and the game were the pillars that supported his survival, and he naturally had a great longing for such a completely stealthy game!

But that kind of condition was obviously unattainable in his previous life, so he could only regret that he had no chance in this life.

But now, he actually knew that there really was a holographic imaginary world in this world, and it was also the divine domain that he longed for the most, so he was naturally extremely excited.

I have been thinking about this in my mind, and the more I think about it, the more itchy I become, and finally return to the residence in a hurry, he can't wait to open his light brain and search for information about the imaginary world.

A light screen popped up on the light brain, and An Zhe reached out to rummage through the light curtain and found the relevant events in this world about Sword Art Online.

After reading for nearly an hour, An Zhe learned about the imaginary world in this world.

He rubbed his brows, leaned back in the soft chair, and remained silent.

"Huh...... The world is really interesting...... It's familiar to me, but it's also terrifying to the point of being strange......"

After a while, he suddenly let out such a soft sigh.

After checking the information, he can be considered to have some understanding of the imaginary world in this world.

One thing worth saying is that in this world, this game really responds to the sentence in the original book that An Zhe knows.

It's not just a game......

Four years ago, Sord Art Online, a game developed by quantum physicist and genius game designer Akihiko Kayaba, was released, and a total of 10,000 ordinary people entered the completely stealthy game.

But the development of things is not like the original book that An Zhe is familiar with, because of Kayaba Akihiko's private purpose of "creating this world by himself just to watch it".

But...... It is caused by the cognitive error of the intelligent brain of the game.

Akihiko Aoba's purpose is to create a floating giant city that is no different from the real world. But it is precisely because of such a simple problem that people ignore that the main brain has logical cognitive errors.

Because it is impossible for people in the real world to come back from the dead!

As a result, the mastermind in charge of the game world turned off the offline option and announced that the SAO world was a death game!

At that time, Akihiko Aoba happened to log in to the game as GM: Heathcliff.

After doing his best to obtain his own 'immortal' authority from the mastermind, he established the Blood Alliance Knights, which lasted three years, and finally led everyone through the 100-level Red Jade Palace BOSS......

This incident, known as the SAO incident, resulted in more than 4,000 deaths......

And he himself performed an ultra-high-intensity scan of his brain after clearing the level and releasing all the survivors. Because of its death in the real world, the SAO incident was ultimately unresolved.

This kind of development can be said to be fundamentally different from the plot that An Zhe is familiar with......

That's why he sighed like that.

"......Shh

After being silent for a long time, An Zhe suddenly let out such a soft snort.

After all, it's not your own world, so there's no need to be surprised if anything happens in such a world......

Besides, are there fewer strange things that happen around you?

There are so many two-dimensional goddesses around me、、Where do you go to find reasonableness...... Think of it as a joke on yourself by the Crossing God!

Besides, imagining what the history of the development of the world will look like at the end is not a matter of concern to me at all.

The important thing is that it's enough to be in the imaginary world that you like!!

Thinking like this, An Zhe no longer dwelled on the difference between his past life and the present, but thought about the current matter about the ability exam.

The reason why the hypothetical world has developed into its current state is to start with the ALO world after the SAO world.

As a true complete stealth, people's behavior in the imaginary world can be said to be completely indistinguishable from reality, and after the opening of ALO, there are also many capable people who log in to ALO.

They were amazed to find that playing this game could significantly improve their combat skills!

This discovery immediately made countless capable people flock to it, and it also made the entire imaginary world completely popular.

Because in real life, although there are many capable people, there are very few elites who really have strong combat ability!

The reason is simple, lack of grinding!

And the imaginary world just gives a stage for many capable people to try!

Although there is a sense of oppression between life and death, for the vast majority of capable people, this is already the best place to practice to improve their combat skills!

After all, the experience of combat is engraved in the soul, and with proper physical practice, you can achieve the goal of improving your combat power in the real world!

Over the course of the year, ALO has become a haven for those who are capable to hone their combat skills.

And in three days, the world of ALO will be reborn with Ayn Grant!

Because of this, the university happened to set the students' midterm exams in the floating city of new students!

……

"The setting is so unrecognizable! I don't think about the feelings of the big guy in my previous life at all......"

An Zhe couldn't help complaining like this, but he could only smile helplessly.

The world itself is the biggest! What else can be said about how it has developed like this......

Whether it's the original world I'm familiar with or not, I just hope,

Those people are ......

No, it has to be......

Otherwise, I'm really going to take a lunch box and leave!!
