" Beginning connection-"
He gently shouted the command to start the machine. With the help of NERvGear, Osamu Uesugi's self-consciousness went through a brief period of darkness and arrived at the game login interface of SAO.

After completing the simple settings given by the system, Osamu Uesugi once again came to the game world called SAO. The gender would match the player's real gender by default, which was male. As for his name, he still used the name Uesugi from the closed beta.
Osamu Uesugi's game name actually corresponded to the two words " Uesugi ". There was no special meaning to it, but he was too lazy to give it a name.
The Town of Beginnings
This was the starting point for players to log in to the game. All the players walked out from here. Due to the time constraint, various shops and hotels had been built in this small town to meet the various needs of the players.
Standing in the crowded central square of the town, Osamu Uesugi looked at the bustling scene around him and couldn't help but sigh.
Blue lights flashed around them from time to time as players logged in. However, from the scene, it could be seen that many people did not immediately rush out of the town to fight wild monsters after entering the game. On the contrary, everyone began to explore this exotic town out of curiosity.
Some people would choose suitable weapons for themselves in front of the weapon shop, but the initial 1000 Cole probably wouldn't buy anything good. Some men and women even began to flirt on the street, just like couples in real life.
Seeing this, Osamu Uesugi shook his head. It was possible to change one's appearance in the game. As far as the eye could see, almost everyone on this street was handsome and beautiful. There was no one who was unattractive. Osamu Uesugi was probably the only one who had retained his true appearance in real life.
Osamu Uesugi, who already knew the truth of the game, naturally would not spend time leisurely shopping in the Town of Beginnings like the other players. What he needed to do now was to head to the farming spots near the town. He could not waste this precious time and try his best to level up and widen the gap between him and the other players. This was the only way to increase his survival rate in the game.
Without hesitation, Osamu Uesugi ran outside. He was already thinking about his next plan to maximize the benefits.
There was no need to purchase any additional weapons or equipment. The newbie longsword gifted by the system was already enough for him to use. As for armor and HP recovery potions, he did not need them either. Osamu Uesugi was quite confident in dealing with some small monsters with his experience from the closed beta.
First level, starting point of the town's western region
There were many low-level monsters, Berserk Wild Boars, roaming around the wide grassland. Uesugi Shuu chose this place as the first place to go. As for the forest in the north and the lake in the south, they were too far away and his level was too low, so Uesugi Shuu placed them behind.
SwordSkill was the only way for SAO players to fight against wild monsters. In this world where magic was excluded, players had to swing their weapons in order to kill monsters. This setting could be used indefinitely as long as they had enough stamina.
Of course, the activation of the sword skill also required a specific action. Under the judgment of the system AI, the player could activate the sword skill after setting up the action.
Right now, in front of Osamu Uesugi was an ordinary wild boar. Osamu Uesugi had killed countless wild monsters like this during the closed beta.
Although it was only a Level 1 minion, it was not very friendly to new players. Many players who encountered it for the first time might be frightened by its fierce appearance and lose their sense of propriety. In the end, they would be killed and sent back to the resurrection point.
He pulled out the plain and unadorned longsword from the scabbard on his back and placed it in front of him. Under the sunlight, it seemed to emit a chilling aura. Then, a yellow light rose from the sword. It was the basic skill of a vertical slash. This was one of the few skills that Uesugi Shuu knew.
Bang!
A beautiful arc streaked across the air, and the sharp blade slashed deeply across the Wild Boar's body. Red spots of light that symbolized blood seeped out from the wound, and the Wild Boar, which had yet to react, lost half of its HP.
"Kuaixi, keep up the good work."
Osamu Uesugi let out an excited cheer as his attack hit the target. Although he had experienced this many times, every time the sword in his hand pierced into the thick muscles, the feeling of cutting would always make his heart beat wildly.
It was precisely this kind of battle that revolved around life and death that fascinated Shuu Uesugi, and he had praised Hayaba Akihiko's great masterpiece more than once.
After that, Osamu Uesugi got into position again. He activated dazzling sword skills one after another, and the wild boar on the other side was instantly caught in a disaster.
It only took a few seconds for the wild monster to let out its last howl. Then, it turned into glass shards and disappeared from this world.
Ding!
The system prompt appeared in front of Uesugi Osamu. The experience gained from killing the wild monsters was enough for Uesugi Osamu to level up. As for the pitifully little Cole, Uesugi Osamu ignored her.
"Then, it's your turn next.”
Shuu Uesugi placed his sword horizontally on his shoulder and looked at the wild monsters that were still leisurely walking on the grassland. A fiery light flashed in his eyes.
························
A few hours later, the time in the game was synchronized with the real world. The afterglow of the sun sprinkled over the earth. All the players of SAO had logged in one after another. The number of people online at the same time was close to 10,000.
After a period of exploration, the players had already adapted to the game mode here. More people had already walked towards the practice area, and some people saw that the sky was getting dark and were ready to log out.
At this moment, Uesugi was confronting the last wild boar in front of him.
Different from the other wild monsters, this wild boar was obviously twice as big. Its protruding fangs made people doubt its sharpness. Its red eyes revealed a ferocious aura. It was obvious that this was an elite among the minions.
A higher-level monster would bring more benefits as well as danger. Osamu Uesugi was well aware of this, so he had been patiently grinding with the wild boar for nearly half an hour after he found it.
Shuu Uesugi placed his sword, which was already slightly worn, near his chest and immediately activated his new skill, Sonic Impact. This was a new sword skill that he had learned after leveling up. It was a high speed and medium damage skill.
It was precisely because of this sword skill that Osamu Uesugi was able to use it agilely. While dealing damage, he was also able to move forward. After a long period of entanglement, his proficiency with this sword skill also increased. In the end, he successfully killed this elite monster.
There was always a reward for the effort. This unusual wild monster not only gave a lot of experience, but it also dropped a wild boar skin, which could be used to make armor. The effect should be quite good.
However, in the early stages of the game, there were no players who could make equipment, so they could only rely on NPCs to complete it.
After this battle, Osamu Uesugi had leveled up to Level 4. Of course, most of the EXP was provided by the last Elite Wild Boar.
However, this level should not be underestimated. This was only the first day of the game. Many players had not even figured out the combat mode and sword skills. It was estimated that only the original closed beta players could reach this level.
Moreover, the change in level had also increased Osamu Uesugi's HP, HP, and Tendon. In this game, HP was of great importance, while Tendon referred to Strength, Agility, Stamina, and other attributes. It was equally important. For example, many special equipment had a Tendon requirement before they could be used.
He pulled out his sword from the ground and waved it in the air before putting it back into the scabbard on his back.
Osamu Uesugi looked at the sun that was gradually setting in the distance and calculated in his heart.
"It should be about time.”
He sat on the ground and rested to recover his strength. Then, the crisp sound of a bell rang in his ears, and a blue light enveloped Uesugi's body.
"As expected, it's coming."
This was the indication of the player's teleportation, which proved that Hayaba Kyokihiko's operation was still going on as before without much panic. Osamu Uesugi closed his eyes and waited quietly. A few seconds later, his figure appeared in the central square of the Town of Beginnings. Similarly, there were also a large number of players who were at a loss.
Even the most experienced players were at a loss. They couldn't figure out what was going on.
