DanMachi, My Members Are From Slice-of-Life Anime

To Xia Jia's surprise, the first person to respond to the call was not one of the "closed beta testers" caught red-handed, but a handsome guy with glasses in the crowd.

He stepped forward, accompanied by a muscular man and a purple-haired girl, pushing through the crowd:

"My name is Cheng Hui! This shield warrior is Naotsugu, and the assassin is Akatsuki! We are not closed beta testers, but we have experience with dozens of games and extensive experience with legion-level boss battles. We want to join the strategy team!"

Shaga smiled.

These people are interesting.

He naturally wouldn't refuse players who volunteered to join, and readily agreed: "Great, then you'll become the leader of the strategy group. You can treat it like a large guild. You should have more experience than me in how to develop it."

Cheng Hui was surprised to be appointed directly, and unpleasant memories from the game suddenly surfaced in her mind.

I hope I won't be used again.

However, the idea vanished in an instant.

This is an arrangement by the imperial court, not a game! It's to save lives! Even if we're being used, it doesn't matter!

He shook his head, correcting his still-unchanged thinking, and stood at attention, saluting: "Understood your orders, sir!"

Xia Jia chuckled: "Call me Commander."

"Yes, Commander!" This time, all three answered in unison.

This little incident happened.

Yuki and Asuna, along with Mito, also slipped out of the crowd.

Yuuki snuggled right into Xia Jia's arms: "Xia Jia, I want to join the strategy team too!"

Xia Jia chuckled: "It's good that you're alright. Don't worry, we're busy now, we'll talk about it later."

Asuna stood to one side, watching the young man confidently gesturing in front of thousands, and a sense of security welled up in her heart.

"With him around, everything will be fine."

Chapter 470 I, Mitsu, ranked second in the closed beta test, am now a working-class person!

With the assistance of Xia Jia and Sato Miwako, and with Makoto's initiative to respond, the difficulty of reorganizing the players in a planned manner was greatly reduced.

Many closed beta testers who saw Cheng Hui elected as guild leader joined the team one after another, including Diabel, who died in the first floor in the original work, and Argo, the merchant in charge of collecting intelligence.

Once things had largely stabilized, Xia Jia began to execute the plan:

"Cheng Hui, you and Diabel should organize the players to collect quests and treasure chests in the starting town. We need some start-up capital."

"After that, collect and consolidate the equipment and items from the players who are not planning to fight, and forge two or three highly enhanced weapons."

Cheng Hui adjusted her glasses: "Yes."

"After gathering the resources, use the extra Cole to buy a few sets of heavy armor. Have the second team members go out of the city in groups of ten to level up. Remember, their goal for the next two days is not to increase their level or hunt for materials, but to improve their skill proficiency."

Cheng Hui nodded; he was satisfied with Xia Jia's arrangements. Even for seasoned gamers like them, it was easy to see the monsters break down and run away in the current situation, let alone others.

"I remember."

Xia Jia then turned to look at Sato Miwako.

"Officer Sato, your task is to maintain order in the town. Our methods may be a bit excessive in the game, and we need you to calm people down when necessary."

"By the way, we need some more manpower to register the collected resources and equipment in the form of points. After that, you can communicate with Inspector Megure about how to reward these players."

Whether it's a scholarship or a merit award, there needs to be a tangible benefit to prevent players from developing antagonistic feelings and hoarding items.

"Furthermore, there is extra time to allow the second echelon of soldiers to receive special training in military formations and coordination, so that they can get used to combat in the shortest possible time."

Miwako Sato saluted: "Yes."

As for those closed beta testers who were pulled back...

"I only have a few requirements for you: you must level up in teams of five or more. You are not allowed to explore treasure chests or quests with unknown risks on your own."

"It would be best to record the locations of outdoor treasure chests and elite monsters on each floor so that combat power can be allocated uniformly."

His plan was straightforward: to overwhelm the enemy with sheer numbers.

The first level is ultimately just the first level. Whether it's traps to deal with players or elite monsters, the maximum number can't exceed 50.

'What will you do if I send a thousand heavily armored soldiers?'

After Shaka finished speaking, everyone got to work quickly. He himself, along with Yuuki, Asuna, and Mito, the closed beta tester, headed towards the town.

Mitt asked, puzzled, "Where are we going?"

Xia Jia calmly said, "Go get a powerful early-game item."

"I know those players' character quite well. Although there are merit rewards, they won't necessarily hand over all the good stuff."

He remembered that in the later stages of SAO, Kirito carried at least a dozen weapons in his backpack that were no less powerful than the Elucidator.

How many second-tier players can be armed with these weapons?

Such waste of resources is not an isolated case. The bottom layer remains the bottom layer, and the middle layer can only barely survive, serving no purpose whatsoever.

Only the top 30 to 50 people can complete the strategy.

It was both inefficient and a waste of time, ultimately dragging out the planning process to two and a half years.

"I don't want to waste a month on the first floor."

Xia Jia looked at the church in front of him and smiled: "We must conquer the 5th floor in the shortest time possible and solve the accommodation and food problems for the players on the lower floors. Our goal is 3 days."

The group followed Shaga through the door with puzzlement and saw a gray kitten in the church.

Upon seeing the person who came, the kitten immediately jumped out of the window and ran out.

Xia Jia shouted, "Chase!"

After saying that, the four of them followed closely behind.

The group walked through winding alleys and crossed bridges, finally seeing the kitten disappear into a cluster of ruins surrounded by vines.

This is a dilapidated courtyard.

As Shaka stepped inside, the center of the courtyard collapsed, and in the huge pit, Shaka discovered a treasure chest.

“This is…” Mite was taken aback.

Xia Jia curled the corners of his mouth: "With the imperial court's records, it's not unreasonable to discover some unknown strategies, is it?"

In fact, this is the treasure chest that Shaga accidentally discovered in his previous life in the book 'How to Quickly Conquer Aincrad'.

It is said to be the extraordinary encounter of the former European Queen Silica.

As for now, in order for everyone to go home as soon as possible, Shaka can only shamelessly accept it.

Xia Jia stepped forward and opened the treasure chest, which contained 20 Cole and a short sword far superior to beginner weapons.

"In this way, if I go back to Cheng Hui to ask for a basic enhanced weapon, I can get a high-level weapon."

20 Cole is enough for one person to survive in a newbie town for two years. If Shaka doesn't personally enter the game, just this mission information is enough to guarantee that Yuki can rampage through SAO alone.

Shaka tossed the short sword to Yuuki: "A weapon far superior to the beginner level, coupled with overwhelming sword skills, next we'll head to the labyrinth area."

Mitt stared in disbelief at the configuration that surpassed the current version, then followed Shaga away with a bewildered expression.

"Hey, Asuna, is this really the game we played before?"

"That's how amazing the captain is." The chestnut-haired girl raised her head.

Back at the camp, the nine special police officers had been divided into groups and began practicing their weapon skills. In SAO, even swinging a sword in the air could improve one's proficiency.

Other casual players also began a thorough search of the starting town and indeed found quite a few lost treasure chests.

Aside from potions, we also acquired a few pieces of slightly stronger equipment.

Without hesitation, Xia Jia scraped together what she could from various sources and bought a set of basic equipment from the shopkeeper. She also upgraded Yuki's weapon to +5 and then told Cheng Hui about it.

He led his team straight into the maze area.

They will surpass the T1 player tier and become the T0 players who snowball for the strategy team.

On the way to the next town.

The four of them swept across the map at an astonishing speed. The wolves and blue-skinned boars that blocked their way were no match for them and died instantly upon contact.

With a mental reaction speed at the peak of level 7, coupled with the ability to foresee the future in the state of "selflessness," Xia Jia has completely evolved into an extreme agility player.

Similarly, Asuna and Yuuki also demonstrated the mental fortitude to fight in the dungeon, and their "Agility" and "Dexterity" attributes were perfectly suited to full stealth, making them kill monsters like slaughtering dogs.

Mitt, like a pendant, felt lost and disoriented carrying the scythe.

Just then, Shaga's voice came from ahead: "Don't just stand there, think about whether there are any special elite monsters on the way, we can take care of them along the way."

"Huh?" Mitt was stunned.

Did you bring me along just to use my guide?

I was the second player to reach level 10 during the closed beta! Don't look down on me!

Chapter 471 Advance, Maze Area.

Mite suppressed his restless heart and carefully recalled what he had seen and heard during the closed beta test.
