In the current SAO, which players are of the greatest help to the progress of the entire game strategy? Then "rat" and "saint" are definitely on the top of the list. The mouse Argo is also a closed beta player, and he specializes in intelligence business. In addition to some exclusive information, some in-game precautions and information from the internal test, the other party compiled a beginner's guide and distributed it to every player for free. Because Argo is an intelligence officer and her whereabouts are secretive, no one even knows what she looks like, so she is called "Rat". As for the so-called "saint", it is another player mentioned by "Mouse" in the novice guide. Mouse stated in the Beginner's Guide that any new player can borrow a certain amount from the "Saint". Although the loan amount is charged with a high interest rate of more than 30%, it can be repaid later. As for why Seiya is called a "saint" despite charging such a high interest rate, the reason is very simple. That's because Seiya's loan periods are extremely long, and he never picks and chooses who to lend to. Although the interest rates may seem high, the risks Seiya himself bears are also very high.
Because once the person he borrowed money from dies, he will lose all his money. Even if the person who borrowed money from him pays him back later, Seiya will only make 30% profit. Other people who gamble always pay back 100%, but Seiya either loses everything or only earns 30% interest. When the income and expenditure are disproportionate, many people think that Seiya is doing a losing business. Moreover, for most new players who have no resources in the early stages, Seiya's lending does greatly increase their chances of survival. It is for this reason that Seiya is nicknamed "Saint". However, since we are still on the first floor of Aincrad, players are not qualified to open a shop, so Seiya's so-called "Famous Chamber of Commerce" is completely in its infancy. Even if players want to borrow money from Seiya, they can only rely on luck to see if they can meet him. This leads to many people knowing the "Saint" but not knowing what the other person looks like. However, the beginner's guide given by "Mouse" stated that "Saint" was a public beta player, not a closed beta player. Therefore, most people speculated that the "saint" must be an extremely outstanding entrepreneur, otherwise it would be impossible for him to obtain enough money to lend to others in such a short period of time. Whether they are "rat" or "saint", they do have their own purposes when they help other players. But it is undeniable that their contribution to the players has indeed greatly reduced the mortality rate of this game. If it weren't for the novice guide from 'Mouse' and the loan from 'Saint', the number of players who died this month might not be one thousand, but two thousand, or even more... At this moment, Ya Wang, who was standing next to Diabel, also felt a great pain in his face from being hit. He had previously mocked Seiya as a selfish "beta tester", but he never expected that the other party was actually the famous "Saint"! And according to intelligence, the "Saint" is also a public beta player, not the so-called "cheater" he claims. "Okay, everyone, as you can see, now even the famous 'Saint' has joined the attack team this time. I think everyone should have more confidence in this attack plan, right? Without further ado, let's follow our previous agreement and form a team with people we are familiar with." Blue-haired Diabel is obviously a very scheming person. After realizing that Seiya is a very prestigious player, he immediately spoke up to consolidate his position as leader.
Kirito, who already had social phobia, immediately looked at his only best friend when he heard that he had to team up with others if he wanted to participate in the strategy operation. "Mr. Seiya, please join our team. I'm sure we can work well together." "Brother Seiya, come to our team. My sister and I are in need of a captain who is good at commanding." “…” Looking at Seiya who was surrounded by many people, Kirito wanted to curse him. He used to think that Seiya was only popular in reality, but he didn't expect that now in the game, he is still so popular. He is obviously a hardcore game geek, and Seiya is a little richer, a little more handsome, and has a better learning ability. What else can he compare with himself in? Why is it that a mere newbie is being treated like a star by everyone, while no one cares about him, a top boss? But soon, Kirito discovered that he was not the only one sitting on the bench. Not far away from him, there was a guy wearing a rag cloak covering his entire body, also giving off a keep-away vibe. He quickly caught Kirito's attention. With the idea that since everyone is socially anxious, they might as well form a team, Kirito finally mustered up the courage and tried to contact the other party. "Ding, the player Kirito has invited you to form a team. Do you want to accept?" "Ding, player Asuna joins the team." Seeing that the other party did not refuse his invitation to form a team, Kirito breathed a sigh of relief. When he saw the name in the team list, he guessed that the other party might be a female player. Just as he was organizing his words and wanted to say hello to the new teammate next to him, Kirito didn't expect that the other party would speak first. "Is what they just said true?" Kirito: (_??? "Is that what they just said, that any new player can borrow money from that 'saint'?" The voice coming from under the cloak was indeed a female, and she sounded relatively young. And from the questions asked by the other party, Kirito could instantly judge that his temporary teammate should also be a public beta player, and he was probably a newbie in the game who knew nothing, just like Seiya. "You want to borrow money from Seiya? There is no doubt that it is true. After all, that guy still has some integrity. But from what I know about his character, he never does anything without profit. If you don't really need it, don't go to him to borrow money. It's definitely a trap." Having known each other for so many years, Kirito is quite familiar with his bad friend's personality. Let's not say he is a wicked villain, but this guy Seiya is definitely not a "saint". He has always been the one taking advantage of others. Would he be so generous as to lend money selflessly to others? Maybe others think that Seiya is doing a losing business, but Kirito, who is familiar with Seiya, knows that this guy must have made a lot of money secretly. "Hey, hey, hey, we are close friends and brothers. I just pushed so many team invitations to find you. And you actually stabbed me in the back just to pick up girls for yourself, that's really too much, Kirito-kun."
