"Clang! Clang!!"
Swords clashed.
Fang Zheng swung the greatsword in his hands with force, blocking the Kobold Lord’s axe strike. Then he lifted his hands upward, causing the Kobold Lord’s attack to be deflected. Simultaneously, Ester leaped from the side, her longsword emanating a dazzling brilliance, which scattered and pierced the Kobold Lord’s body.
"Awooooo!!!"
The attacked Kobold Lord imdiately raised its shield and smashed it toward Ester. Ester swiftly rolled backward while, from the other side, Restia quickly moved to fill the gap. She unleashed a piercing strike with her sword skill. Simultaneously, Fang Zheng raised his greatsword high and swung it down forcefully!
"Boom!!"
With the sound of shattering, the next mont the Kobold Lord knelt to the ground, leading Fang Zheng to step forward with his greatsword—damn this ga for not allowing executions!!
This is so frustrating!
Seeing the reduced health of the Kobold Lord after his strike, Fang Zheng cursed internally. In this crappy online ga world, everything is data, and even with the bonus of vital attacks, it’s impossible to take down a BOSS instantly...
If this were the Black Soul World, whether you’re the Naless King or the King of Salary’s incarnation, watch explode your dog head with this sword!
With no other choice, Fang Zheng withdrew his sword and retreated. Almost imdiately, the Kobold Lord stood up violently, swinging his axe at Fang Zheng.
After engaging with the first layer Lord for a mont, Fang Zheng had almost figured out this BOSS’s tactics. Specifically, considering it’s the first BOSS, in any ga, the first BOSS either helps players familiarize themselves with various BOSS battle skills or tests players’ mastery of character skills. Once these two points are mastered, apart from the BOSS having slightly higher attack damage, more health, and larger attack range, it holds no other threats by itself.
If this were just a regular online ga, this Kobold Lord would have long been thrashed by players hundreds of tis. The reason it’s still living comfortably is solely because this death ga’s twisted setup makes players too afraid to take risks.
Unfortunately, having encountered Fang Zheng, this BOSS’s wonderful life concludes here...
"So amazing...!!"
As Fang Zheng and his team fought fiercely, on the other side of the hall, Yuna and Agil were excitedly clenching their hands, watching the battle unfold not far away. Although they weren’t seasoned players, they could see that the current situation looked very promising.
Fang Zheng, together with Ester and Restia, distracted the boss BOSS while wearing it down. Nearby, Leafa and Black Cat, Gabriel and Aoba, Yuki, and Asuna ford three teams respectively to handle the Kobold Guards.
Under their fierce attacks, the three Kobold Guards didn’t show any remarkable performance and were completely overwheld. If it weren’t for being BOSS battle’s minions with higher defense and health than usual creatures, they would’ve probably perished long ago.
Only Eiriri stood a bit behind the others, holding a dagger while cautiously surveying the battlefield. As a Dagger Wielder, Eiriri’s attack power wasn’t high, so Fang Zheng didn’t make her participate in the battle. Instead, she stayed back, utilizing her keen observational skills to monitor the battlefield so that in case of any unexpected situations, they could be handled well.
"I want to record this battle!"
Yuna quickly opened the system and began recording the battle before her eyes. This mont was the players’ first step toward challenge, and as things stood, these people should be able to defeat—not just should, they absolutely will defeat the first layer BOSS. She wouldn’t miss this historic mont!
"Gahhhhh!!"
The Kobold Guard scread again, pouncing forward. By now its HP was nearly at its end, yet even so, Aoba stood before it without letting her guard down. She raised the shield in her hand, blocking in front of her, allowing the Kobold Guard’s hamr to smash heavily onto the shield. She then forcefully pushed forward.
"Gabriel!"
"Got it!"
Gabriel, holding a one-handed hamr, sprinted over from the side. She then swung the hamrhead forward.
"In the na of Angels, I’ll send you to Hell!"
"Boom!!"
With Gabriel’s words, the one-handed hamr in her hand swung rcilessly, smashing down on the Kobold Guard’s head. Instantly, the Kobold Guard’s remaining HP cleared to zero, screaming as it shattered into fragnts and vanished into the air.
"Phew..."
Seeing the enemy disappear before her, Aoba let out a sigh of relief. But at this mont, Eiriri’s voice suddenly sounded in her ear.
"Aoba, watch out to your right, there’s a respawn!"
If it were the newly-entered Aoba, she might have been totally confused by now. But now, upon hearing Eiriri’s warning, although Aoba herself hadn’t realized what was happening, her body had already reacted instinctively from training, quickly turning around and raising the shield to protect her chest and stomach vitals.
"Whoosh!!"
Only then did Aoba witness a long spear descending from the sky, grazing the edge of her shield and shoulder. Then, a Kobold Soldier scread and jumped down, crashing into her shield!
"Hey!"
Aoba reacted, hurriedly smacking the shield forward, striking the Kobold Soldier’s head. Gabriel then rushed over from the side and smashed it flying with her hamr.
"Are you okay, Aoba?"
"I’m... I’m fine, Gabriel. Just lost a little HP."
Saying this, Aoba breathed a sigh of relief and glanced at her HP. Luckily, her HP was within the safe line. Due to her tily defense earlier, the creature had only taken a small part of her HP, not enough to force her out of the battle.
Aoba caught her breath, then tightly gripped her weapon.
"Let’s keep going!"
Minutes ticked by, the battle ahead raged intensely, while behind, Yuna and Agil watched anxiously, cold sweat in their hands. Several tis, they had the urge to jump in and join the fight. But rembering the words said by that man before the fight, they cald their eager hearts and watched the battle gradually reach its conclusion...
"————Roar!!"
Suddenly, a deafening roar sounded. Hearing the roar, almost everyone simultaneously looked toward the sound, seeing the Kobold Lord’s HP dropping to the critical red alert line!
"You must succeed!!"
Seeing this, Yuna and Agil couldn’t contain their excitent, itching to rush in and help Fang Zheng and the others finish off the first layer Lord. However, at this mont, the Kobold Lord suddenly raised both hands, tossing away its shield and axe, then drew the taidao from its back!
Attack mode switch!
After pulling out the Taidao, the Kobold Lord instantly changed from its originally steady approach. It leaped suddenly, planting a foot on the nearby pillar, vaulting over the defensive line ford by Fang Zheng, Restia, and Ester, rushing towards Leafa and Black Cat who were engaging with the smaller creatures!
"Not good!!"
Seeing this, both Yuna and Agil’s faces changed dramatically. Although they weren’t fighting on the frontlines, they understood the disastrous outco if the creatures broke through the defenses. Not to ntion, Leafa and Black Cat were focused on tackling the Kobold Soldiers, having no ti to spare for the descending BOSS!
However, at this mont, they saw Eiriri, who had been standing in the arena all along, suddenly move!
The blonde twin-tail girl lowered her stance, her dagger emitting a dazzling radiance of sword skills. Then Eiriri, like an arrow released from a bowstring, leaped forward, both person and sword transforming into a light beam charging towards the Kobold Lord.
Facing the descending Taidao of the Kobold Lord, Eiriri unhesitatingly thrust out her sword, striking against the blade!
"Bang!!"
If it were in the real world, Eiriri’s dagger couldn’t possibly contend against the Kobold Lord’s Taidao. But in this ga world, things were entirely different. As Eiriri’s dagger struck the Taidao, the BOSS’s weapon imdiately followed the ga’s rule, bouncing back.
With this strike, the Kobold Lord lost balance, flipping backward in the air.
"Whoosh!!"
The pitch-black Greatsword ca whistling, straight hitting the Kobold Lord’s back, knocking it to the ground!
"Boom!!"
The Kobold Lord slamd heavily into the ground, while the Greatsword that struck it flipped and flew backward. At the sa ti, Fang Zheng leaped up suddenly, grasped the spinning Greatsword in mid-air, firmly held it with both hands, and forcefully struck down at the Kobold Lord!
The icy blade pierced the Kobold Lord’s head, and this ti the Kobold Lord’s defense finally reached its limit. Its head, along with its body, was directly split by Fang Zheng’s sword. The next mont, amidst a wail, the massive body of the Kobold Lord fragnted and disappeared into information scraps in the air.
"Bang bang bang!!"
With the fall of the Kobold Lord, the small creatures originally besieging Fang Zheng and others also shattered and vanished, a lodious horn sound echoed, and a line of information appeared before everyone’s eyes.
[The Dark Moon Sword Guild has successfully defeated the first-floor Lord, the passage between the first and second floor is officially opened!]
Accompanying this information, the wall ahead slowly descended, revealing the hidden staircase within.
"We did it!!"
Incredulously staring at the scene before her, Aoba was stunned for a mont, then she hugged Gabriel tightly. Yuki and Asuna excitedly high-fived in celebration, Leafa stood in place dumbly, gripping her Taidao, seemingly still processing what had happened, while Black Cat huffed coldly, raising her head proudly with an evil laugh.
"re Kobolds, how could they be a match for , the Fallen Saint Black Cat? In the face of our mighty strength, even deities are not real opponents!"
"Phew......"
Only Eiriri let out a sigh of relief, then sat down heavily, lowered her head, looked at her trembling hands, and couldn’t help but smile a little.
"I really didn’t expect I could actually do it...... hahaha, I can brag to that annoying Shiyu of Misty Hill after going back!"
"Well done."
Seeing the excited and thrilled girls before him, Fang Zheng sheathed his sword and nodded contentedly.
"To be honest, I didn’t expect them to do so well."
Restia also walked over at this point, watching the celebration scene of the girls with a hint of reflection. After all, in her view, these girls were just ordinary people, not even as skilled as the Priestess Princesses of her world. They’d picked up weapons to start fighting, and it’s only been these brief ten days. But now, they’ve successfully crossed the first step......
"Alright! Enough talking about this!"
Fang Zheng clapped his hands vigorously.
"Everyone, it’s ti to open the chest!"
Hearing Fang Zheng’s voice, the girls hurriedly gathered around him, looking at the treasure chest that appeared along with the disappearance of the Kobold Lord.
"Who’s opening the chest this ti?"
"......Hmm, Gabriel, you do it."
Fang Zheng paused for a mont, then appointed Gabriel. He himself wasn’t going to open the chest anymore, but now, almost everyone on his side had obtained excellent weapons, except for him. This ti......no matter what, it should be his turn to get sothing.
"Alright, leave it to ."
Hearing Fang Zheng’s words, Gabriel’s eyes brightened, she rubbed her hands, then approached the chest and opened it.
A dazzling golden light erged, seeing this brilliant glow, everyone couldn’t help but sigh in admiration, while Gabriel reached inside the chest and took out a......
"What’s this thing?"
Looking at the guitar-like item before him, Fang Zheng was utterly speechless. Everyone else also gathered around, curiously staring at this odd object in Gabriel’s hand. It didn’t resemble a weapon at all, from its appearance, it looked more like a musical instrunt...
"This......seems to be called a lute?"
"......Wasn’t that Miss Yuna just performing with this earlier?"
".........."
Fang Zheng glanced at the lute in Gabriel’s hand, then turned his head back to look at Yuna standing not far away, uncertain if she should approach... I’ve calculated everything so precisely, and you actually give this? Are you kidding ! You’d rather hand out an equipnt not ant for our team, than give a Two-Handed Sword? Are you trying to drive crazy?
Who’s in charge of planning this crappy ga? Co out and let’s battle for three hundred rounds!!! See if I don’t cut you down!!!
