Chapter 317: Any knife light will only hurt you
"roar--"
The deafening roar echoed throughout the palace.
Under the siege of hundreds of players, the three monsters were all eliminated, leaving only the ogre boss rushing through the crowd, knocking players away one by one.
The spectacular boss battle scenes and the shouts of the players deeply stimulated the visual nerves of the audience in the live broadcast room.
"That's awesome! Is this what it feels like to face the boss in person?"
“It makes my blood boil, I really want to join in.”
"Damn it! If I had more money, I would be the only one here right now!"
"Don't say it, brother. I'm already regretting it."
“It hurts, it hurts so much!”
In just one week, the popularity of the various "Sword Art Online" live broadcast rooms has reached an unprecedented level.
Even netizens who don’t play games rushed to the scene after hearing the news, wanting to see this epoch-making game with their own eyes.
The other anchors and internet celebrities who didn’t qualify for the first test saw this and became jealous.
They have worked hard for so many years and finally accumulated hundreds of thousands of fans.
As a result, after he live-streamed "Sword Art Online" for a week, his fans increased by hundreds of thousands. Some of them were new anchors. How could they not be jealous?
And this.
Let them understand too.
The horror of the game "Sword Art Online".
They all started to ask through their connections when the next test qualification for Honghuang would be issued.
Don’t even mention 15,000 by then.
Even if it costs 150,000, they have to grit their teeth and buy it!
"Look! The boss is about to change phases!"
Suddenly, a cry of surprise was heard, bringing everyone back to their discussion.
When the dog-headed boss's health dropped to only one bar, he suddenly threw away the shield axe in his hand and drew out the butcher's knife from his waist.
This change.
The surviving players shocked, but at the same time they looked happy.
Because in the original plot, the Gnoll Lord also enters a stage when his health is low. Not only does his attack and speed increase significantly, but his attack method also changes to a group attack.
at the same time.
Because of the loss of the shield, the defense is greatly reduced.
I didn't expect this to be restored.
"Haha, my chance to pull out the knife light has come!"
"Look how I kill it in one move!"
One of the players with the ID "小刀拉臀" immediately put away his sword and shield, switched to dual-blade mode, and rushed forward with excitement on his face.
But the next second.
Bang!
The butcher swung his knife and knocked him to the ground.
[The player "Xiaodao Labuti" has died. 】
teammate:……
audience:……
Everyone had a strange look on their faces, and burst out laughing as they watched the corpse turn into pieces and disappear.
"Good guy, you want to be the protagonist, right?"
"You can't laugh anymore, just kill me with one blow."
"Are you here just to make people laugh?"
" Boss: I heard you want to pull a knife with me?"
"Any knife light will only hurt you."
"I admit I couldn't hold it in, hahahaha..."
I have to say that the scene where the protagonist of "Sword Art Online" fights the boss with two swords is really deeply rooted in people's hearts.
Basically more than half of the players who enter this game have specially learned the dual-sword stance and spent money to buy two one-handed weapons.
I just want to replicate that cool and handsome scene during the boss battle.
But the result...
"This guy is so stupid, does he think everyone is the protagonist?"
In the crowd, Ouyang Xiao complained while silently putting away the second weapon he had just taken out of his bag.
As if nothing happened.
Then.
Several defensive sword and shield players stepped forward.
"Everyone be careful, the second stage is very fast and can kill people instantly! It can only be defeated by switching battles, it should be the early teaching boss!"
Teaching boss, also known as stuck boss.
It is an existence that can only be defeated if the player masters certain skills.
And this ogre lord is undoubtedly used by Honghuang to teach players how to switch battles.
Only by learning this fighting style can you defeat it and reach the second level.
"In this case, those who have learned how to switch will be in charge of the inner circle, and the others will provide support from the outer circle and look for opportunities to attack!"
Those who can become the vanguard and arrive here are not ordinary players.
In just a moment, he analyzed the interests and rearranged the players' teams to form two inner and outer encirclements.
The tense situation, as if facing a formidable enemy, made the audience's blood boil.
This was the boss battle they had imagined.
Today I really had a feast for my eyes.
As for Ouyang Xiao and the female spearman, they looked at each other, walked forward spontaneously, joined the inner circle, and gripped their weapons tightly.
"roar--"
Seeing himself surrounded, the Kobold Lord lowered his body and put his butcher's knife back to his waist, emitting a dazzling blade light.
"Get started!"
With a loud shout, several players in the front row took up their positions, and dazzling white lights lit up on their weapons.
The sound of energy gathering echoed in my ears, as if a surge of energy was about to burst out.
boom!
The soles of the Kobold Lord's feet exploded, and the butcher's knife turned into a white afterimage and swept towards the crowd.
The speed is so fast that it is difficult to see with the naked eye.
Several people were shocked and attacked one after another, their weapons were suddenly thrown out in a flash of light.
"when!"
The sound of the collision exploded the eardrums and shook the air in the palace.
Several players were knocked back, and the Kobold Lord's offensive was also blown away, his huge body leaning back slightly.
“Switch!”
Ouyang Xiao and others who had been waiting for a long time rushed out quickly, and the flash of swords and shadows instantly submerged the ogre lord, causing countless wounds.
However.
Their first team battle.
Obviously, I still lack some experience.
As soon as the attack landed, the Kobold Lord had already steadied himself.
With an angry roar, he slashed out in a half-moon-long horizontal slash, instantly killing the nearest players.
For a while.
The scene fell into chaos again.
The players were in chaos and the noobs were hacking around.
The audience was secretly shocked. The boss after this stage was too powerful. If it were them, they would have died long ago.
fortunately.
The situation got out of control.
But after all, there is an advantage in numbers.
Under the joint resistance of several big players.
Everyone seized the opportunity to launch a fierce attack, and at the cost of half of their men being killed or wounded, they cleared the last bit of the boss's health.
Inside the entire palace.
Finally, there was a thunderous cheer.
[First level, cleared! ]
The big word "Pass" floated right above the palace.
The surviving players hugged each other excitedly, with tears in their eyes.
Those who had just been resurrected and rushed over were also very excited.
It’s not about how awesome this boss is, but the profound meaning it contains.
Because this is their first time, and also the first boss that all players have defeated in the virtual world!
Just this.
It is enough for them to remember it forever.
In excitement, they began to gather in groups of three or five to discuss the battle that had just taken place.
"Damn it! I forgot to record the video!"
Suddenly, someone reacted and let out a wail.
After these words were spoken, everyone recovered and couldn't help but smile knowingly.
"Fortunately, I was smart and turned on the video as soon as I walked in."
"I did the same. I recorded the cool scene of myself blocking the boss's jump attack."
"Did you record the concentrated fire during the transition phase just now? Please share."
"Hey, after this first test is over, I'm going to upload it online to show off."
"We still have some time. How about we go back to the tavern in Torbana Town to celebrate after we finish looking at the environment on the second floor?"
“I agree!”
With only a few hours left before the end of the first test, they had no plans to do anything else.
I went up to the second floor through the stairs behind the boss throne, walked around outside to familiarize myself with the environment, and then teleported back to the maze town on the first floor, Tolbana.
That evening.
The pub was brightly lit.
Countless players gathered in the square, held a bonfire party with the props they collected, and tasted the wine and food in the game.
The whole square was filled with singing and dancing, laughter, and reluctant farewells.
Even though they have only been in this world for seven days.
But I fell deeply in love with this place.
Now the first test is about to end.
These comrades who came from all over the world and had experienced adventures and battles together are about to return to reality, and they inexplicably feel a sense of trance.
“It’s almost over.”
Beside Ouyang Xiao, the female spearman friend she had just made was leaning against a big tree, holding a crystal cup dropped by a rare monster, silently watching the lively scene around the campfire.
"Yeah, I'm really reluctant to do that."
Ouyang Xiao gently wiped the green sword , with a hint of melancholy on his face.
Even though she knew it was just a game.
But the adventures of these days, the people and things encountered, and even the embarrassment of being chased by monsters, are so real and make people nostalgic.
This is something other games can't give you.
This is also something that the real world cannot give.
"By the way, I saw you were playing like crazy when you were fighting the boss. Was that always the case when you played games before?"
In order to ease the mood, Ouyang Xiao changed the subject.
Unexpectedly, the female spearman's eyes darkened when she heard this.
"No, I don't have the chance to go crazy in real life..."
After saying this, he lowered his head silently, seeming a little depressed.
Even someone as rough as Ouyang Xiao could sense her change and couldn't help asking, "Is your family very strict?"
"No." The female spearman shook her head.
Perhaps because they had helped each other today, after a moment of silence, she finally whispered, "In reality... I can only sit in a wheelchair."
"In a wheelchair? Could it be that you..." Ouyang Xiao's face changed and he immediately shut his mouth.
"Well, there's nothing to hide." The female spearman smiled. "It's all thanks to this game that I can indulge myself freely for once. I'm already very satisfied."
Light words came out.
But it silenced the entire audience in the live broadcast room.
No wonder .
No wonder they looked so obsessed, even crazy, when they first met each other; it turned out to be because of this.
After understanding the reason, Ouyang Xiao couldn't help but say, "In that case, how about we play together after the game is released? I have already made an appointment with a few girlfriends, and now the five-person team is just short of one person."
"OK."
The female spearman smiled and nodded.
It had been a long time since she had made normal friends like this, so she naturally agreed without hesitation.
However.
But she didn't know.
At this moment, the style of Ouyang Xiao's live broadcast room suddenly changed.
"Don't! Don't promise her!"
"Miss, you are confused. Do you know what team you have joined?"
"If you follow these four, you will become a funny person too!"
"It's over, it's over. The young lady is going to be infected by the anchor."
"Are the four funny sisters going to evolve into the five funny sisters?"
Looking at the barrage of comments that kept flashing by, Ouyang Xiao's face turned dark.
What a funny four sisters.
They are four beautiful sisters, okay!
but.
Before she could get mad.
A shout was heard from a distance.
"Come on, come on. There is still half an hour left before the first test ends. Come over and take a group photo as a souvenir."
Take a group photo?
The two men's eyes lit up, and they left the tree and joined the crowd around the campfire.
The whole square was bustling with activity, with countless players crowded together and striking all kinds of funny poses.
final.
After a shutter click.
The picture was frozen forever.
Everyone also said goodbye to each other in the countdown to the end of the first test and made an appointment to see each other next time.
Then they all went offline and disappeared on the spot as a beam of light.
"call--"
In the room, Ouyang Xiao opened his eyes and let out a long sigh.
But she didn't get up, but lay there, as if recalling what had happened in the past few days.
Just when the audience thought she was going to express her emotion, she suddenly took off her helmet and sat up with a frown on her face.
"The test time is too short! How can seven days be enough!"
"No! I need to contact Honghuang to start a second test!"
