A huge room that was dim and low, with a dark red floor, a centipede-like monster made of white bones meandered and moved quickly. Pen, fun, pavilion www. biquge。 info

Around it, players are fighting to attack it, and it is facing Heathcliff, who wields the Holy Sword.

Hold the red shield in front of you, then Heathcliff draws the sword behind the shield and attacks the boss.

"Roar!"

The boss let out a fierce roar, its skeletal head shining with two pairs of blood-red eyes, and its two huge white bone claws that resembled blades were attacking wildly.

Although there are shield guards led by Heathcliff who are responsible for defending against the boss's attacks, there are still these players who are accidentally attacked by the boss's body composed of sharp bone spurs, and then directly turn into blue shards. The vacant slots were quickly filled by other players. They can't go back, they can only defeat this guy!

"Drink!"

As for the three-person attack team led by Li Tong, Li Tong held the White Dragon Sword, Kiriko held the Dark Chaser and retreated from the boss's side, while Asuna used a thin sword to resist the BOSS's attacks with his body occasionally crashing into them.

Finally, with the concerted efforts of everyone, the boss's HP dropped to a low point. At this time, Heathcliff waved the long sword in his hand and gave orders to all the staff: "All assault!" ”

Immediately afterwards, he took the lead in attacking the boss, and then the other players followed, and Li Tong also stepped quickly, and the white dragon sword attacked the boss with fierce force. Behind him, Kiriko and Asuna used their sword skills side by side.

At the same time, all the players around the boss began to make a final assault on the boss. As the boss stiffens, HP drops to 0, then explodes into large blue shards that vanish. Then in the hall, a big system prompt appeared - "Congratulations!! ”

"Finally...... It's over......"

Looking at the system prompt above, everyone couldn't help but have such a sentence in their hearts, and then they sat down on the ground one after another.

"How many people...... sacrificed ......"

Someone's voice appeared, silencing everyone who heard it.

At this time, Kiriko couldn't help but open the team window.

"7 people died......"

"Liar, don't ......"

"There are 25 floors to go up......"

"Can we really get to the top......"

……

Just as the players suddenly fell into a pessimistic mood, Li Tong stood up instead, and under the puzzled gaze of Asuna and Kiriko, he walked towards Heathcliff who was standing in the distance.

"Oh! Kirito-kun, I'm glad you joined, otherwise I would have doubled the death toll before I saw it...... Well?! ”

"Kirito!?"

……

In the midst of everyone's exclamations, when Heathcliff looked at Li Tong who came over with a smile, Li Tong suddenly made a move, and the white dragon sword in his hand stabbed straight at Heatscliff, who was still half-blooded because of the boss battle just now.

"Ding-!"

However, it seemed that because what they thought was not happening in front of them, the people who had not yet reacted in their heads forgot what Li Tong was doing, and looked at the purple system prompt window that appeared above Heathcliff's head and were stunned.

――“ImmortalObject！！ ”

"An immortal attribute on the system? How could it be ......"

At this time, Asuna, who was the first to react, was trying to stop Li Tong's behavior, but was stopped by the text in the prompt window.

"Sure enough! It's impossible for your guy's HP to drop below yellow, how's that? Is it fun to watch others fight to the death in a world of their own making? Heathcliff ...... Oh! No! You should be called Akihiko Kayaba! ”

As if he had known that his attack would not work, Li Tong chuckled and looked at Heathcliff in front of him.

"Huh?"

Because of Li Tong's words, everyone was shocked, and they couldn't believe that it was true.

"For reference, can you tell me why you noticed that?"

"No......"

Heath...... No! Kayaba Akihiko replied like this, as if he had admitted to everyone that he was the culprit who trapped them in this game world - Kayaba Akihiko.

"Huh!" Li Tong showed a mocking smile, "Want to know? You guess. ”

"Hahaha! You're a very interesting person! That's right......" Kayaba Akihiko didn't seem to care about Li Tong's provocation, let out a happy laugh, and then in front of everyone, he personally said the fact that there were still people who couldn't accept it: "Indeed, I am Kayaba Akihiko." ”

"By the way, I'm the final boss of this game that should have been waiting for you at the top."

"Ah......h

Kayaba Akihiko's words seemed to have the final word on this matter, and everyone present had to believe that the leader of the Blood Alliance Knights who led the players in the strategy was actually Kayaba Akihiko.

"What a bad taste! Transformed from the most prestigious player to the worst boss? ”

Kiriko came to Asuna's side, supported Asuna, who was a little unsteady, and looked at Akihiko Kayaba and said coldly.

"That's a good script, isn't it? I had expected that in the end, it was you Kiriko who was in front of me, and you with the fastest reaction speed were given the skill of the second sword. The Brave vs. the Demon King, this is the script I had in mind at the beginning. I just didn't expect ......"

Kayaba Jinghiko looked at Li Tong, and Li Tong also looked at him, and took over: "I just didn't expect my appearance!" Is it? ”

"That's right! However, your strength is beyond my expectations. Hawkers! This kind of unexpected development is also the beauty of online RPG! ”

“…… Our Loyalty and Hope...... You're actually ...... You're actually ...... You're-! ”

At this time, a cadre of the Blood Alliance Knights who was behind Kayaba Akihiko listened to Akihiko's remarks about this death game as an online RPG, his face was distorted, and then he screamed frantically and attacked Kayaba Akihiko.

"Huh!"

With a sneer, Akihiko Kayaba casually clicked on a system menu and clicked it casually.

"Ahh

Then the man suddenly stopped his movements, and then fell heavily to the ground, slumping.

Then Kayaba Akihiko clicked on the system window several times in succession, and then everyone present suddenly fell to the ground as if they had lost the strength to support their bodies. Except for Li Tong, but he didn't seem surprised by this situation.

"Paralysis?"

Kneeling on the ground with Asuna in each other's arms, Kiriko couldn't help but exclaim as she looked at the state on everyone's blood bars.

"What do you want to do? Do you want to kill everyone here to hide the truth? ”

Kiriko questioned Kayaba Akihiko, and when he heard what Kiriko said, he seemed to hear some kind of joke, and Kayaba immediately dismissed her speculation.

"How so? I won't do that kind of unreasonable thing, and since there is no way to do it, I will wait for your visit at the top of the Ruby Palace. The Blood Alliance Knights I have cultivated so far, as well as the players in the strategy group, it really wasn't my intention to let go halfway. Scold! Don't worry, you'll be able to get there! But, until then......"

Kayaba Jinghiko thrust the shield sword in his hand heavily on the ground, and looked at Li Tong with a relaxed face on the side: "Kirito-kun, I want to reward you for seeing my true identity!" Give it your chance! Now we're going to duel one-on-one, and of course I'll turn off the undead attribute, and if you win, the game will be cleared! What do you think? Kirito-kun. ”

"Huh! I've been waiting for you for a long time, come on! Assume that my promise is still valid, and duel here! ”

Finally putting away the relaxed appearance, Li Tong withdrew the white dragon sword behind his back, and then made a sword grip with his right hand.

"Oh? It seems that Kirito-kun is very confident! Let's get started! ”

Looking at Li Tong's move, Akihiko Kayaba looked very interested, and then a system prompt of "The immortal attribute has been lifted" appeared on his head.

"Friendly reminder, use all the permissions you can use! Otherwise......"

Before Akihiko Kayaba could react, Li Tong's figure appeared in front of him, and in his right hand, he was holding a knife burning with black flames and black all over, swinging it towards him.

How could it be so fast!? Shocked, Kayaba Akihiko used the acceleration system to make his shield appear in front of him instantly. Luckily, it blocked the ......

Just when Kayaba Jinghiko thought that he had defused Li Tong's attack, Li Tong's voice came from the shield.

“…… Otherwise, you'll already lose at the beginning! ”

As soon as Li Tong's words fell, Kayaba Jinghiko heard the sound of the shield in his hand shattering, and then he saw a black shadow plunging straight into his body.

“！？” looked at his HP that had been reduced to zero, and then looked at Li Tong, who was still full of blood, "Heh! Really! Is this the fun of cyber RPG? Forever...... Full of unknowns......"

After saying that, it turned into a blue shard.

"Win...... Won ......"

All the players present couldn't believe their eyes, it was so simple......

"At 14:55 on November 7th, the game was cleared...... The game has been cleared ......"

At this moment, almost every player in almost every part of Ayn Grant heard the voice, and everyone fell into a coma.
