5.55% Dimension Lobby / Chapter 2: Chapter 2: Sword Art Online

Chapter 2: Chapter 2: Sword Art Online

"Entering the world of Sword Art Online, please choose a faction from the two choices below." (System)

"Reminder: The time on the player's original world will stop while inside the SAO world" (System)

Suddenly, it was completely dark before him, and he was nauseous. The feeling of teleportation is something he is not quite used to.

Blue players (Lawful Faction)

Blue players gain points by killing monsters and clearing floors to proceed through the game.

Killing regular monsters will net players 1 point, 100 points for killing boss monsters, and 1000 points for clearing a floor.

Blue players killed by Red players will have their points seized by the killer.

(Note Blue Players only have one life. Dying inside the Dimension Lobby will lead to the wiping out of the player's memory and will cause the player to die a natural death a few days after)

Red players (Evil Faction)

Red players gain points by killing other players.

Killing native players will net players 10 points. And 1000 points for killing another Dimension Lobby player.

Red players cannot accumulate points by killing monsters or by clearing floors.

Red players killed by Blue players will have their points seized by the killer.

(Note Red Players can revive once. Dying inside the Dimension Lobby will lead to the wiping out of the player's memory and will cause the player to die a natural death a few days after)

After thinking for a while, Kotton made his choice. He chooses to be a blue player. While taking the red player route will make him earn points faster. The thought of adventuring with Kirito and Asuna and making a guild is enticing.

He had seen the SAO anime in his past life. Kotton was an avid gamer and an otaku. Being with the characters he could only watch before made him quite excited. It can be said it is a dream come true for any otaku. He can also kill red players to get their points. Overall joining the blue faction brings him more merit than joining the reds.

"Player 8760002 has selected Blue players" (System)

"Hint: Techniques created through training and experience can be integrated into SAO in-game skills through the help of the Dimension Lobby System. The Dimension Lobby System has a higher priority than the SAO system" (System)

"Reminder: Pain sensitivity is set as 100% due to participating using the player's original body instead of a virtual avatar" (System)

"Activating SAO Main Quest (Hard Mode)" (System)

(Note there are three quest difficulties Basic, Normal, and Hard. Completing missions with Basic difficulty will only reward the player with the normal amount of attribute points. Completing a Normal difficulty mission will reward the player with the normal amount of attribute points and an ordinary RNG box. Completing a Hard difficulty mission will reward the player with double the number of attribute points, a random skill box, and a premium RNG box)

First, the basic task (Blue players) (completing the basic task will allow the player to return to his original world): Kill the creator of SAO Kayaba Akihito in less than one year.

Second, title task (finish the title task to obtain a permanent title):

Kill 1000 monsters and participate in killing a floor boss to get the title Rookie Swordsman.

Kill 10000 monsters and participate in killing 10-floor bosses to get the title Super Rookie.

Kill 5 Red players and solo kill a floor boss to get the title Elite Swordsman.

Kill 10 Red players and solo kill 3-floor bosses to get the title Veteran Swordsman.

Kill 20 Red players, solo kill 5-floor bosses, and kill Kayaba Akihito to get the title SAO Conqueror.

(Note title effects will not stack. Only the highest title will take effect)

Third, ranking task (you are not alone in the game, with one hundred people vying for dominance. Reach rank one and be able to take out a character back to your original world): Current Ranking: None.

"What a devilish system" (Kotton)

After hearing the System notifications, Kotton thought the System was leaning towards making Dimension Lobby players kill each other. Killing a Dimension Lobby player is more efficient than killing monsters. The rewards are structured in a way to encourage player killing.

Worse yet, blue players only have one life, while PKers have a chance to revive. Things can get very volatile in SAO. Having one more life is better than just having one.

A feature exclusive to Dimensional players was also introduced, the ability to create your skills. These skills can bypass the sword motions needed to activate skills. With freedom and agility, Dimensional players can one-up native SAO players.

The System probably introduced the 100% pain sensitivity to make things more interesting. SAO players feel little to no pain if monsters strike them. Numbness and the feeling of being punched would be the worst punishment a monster in SAO can deal against a native SAO player.

"Initiating transfer, dropdown location: SAO, Aincrad, Town of Beginnings." (System)

"Player 8760002 has obtained the official language of SAO."

His vision went dark he felt dizzy as if a heavy hammer had smacked his head. Soon, the nauseating feeling went away, and he could hear the ecstatic gossip of players around him as a medieval-era township appeared all around him.

In 2022 humanity came up with NerveGear, allowing humans to dive fully into virtual reality. SAO was a child born of NerveGear, a world-shaking full-dive VRMMORPG.

The gameplay of SAO coincided with the materials he read in his past world. Ditching the mouse, keyboard, joysticks, and controllers, this world was generated by putting on NerveGear and diving into the virtual realm.

Kotton didn't feel like a stranger in his body. The System said the players were physically transported into this virtual realm. Unlike the virtual bodies controlled by the bio-electric impulses of the other native players, they can feel 100% of the pain of a similar attack in the real world.
