Chapter Seventy-Four: Will

Xie Lu Xie cared and took medicine, but it didn't seem to have much effect.

---------------

This man must be crazy...

It took less than a second to stun, and it was only a brief second to take Sephiroth's distorted face into his eyes up close, but it was enough to freeze the image into an eternal existence.

Xiangkong's eyes opened slightly, and his eyes were full of cold light.

After the stun time passed, the two of them raised their one-handed swords and swung them at each other almost at the same time.

Boom!

Sparks shot out from the point where the blades collided, and as soon as the tail note disappeared, the two one-handed swords quickly separated, and stopped crossing again.

Sephiroth's agility is much higher than that of Soaring, so Soaring is forced to raise his shield to block after only casting his sword twice.

"Ha Lu Ha! Die, die! ”

Sephiroth's twisted face was hideous, and he roared in anger as he launched a stormy attack into the sky, forming a one-sided suppression.

Most of Xiangkong's body shrank behind the shield, listening to the sound of the sword blade slashing on the shield, his eyes were still a little solemn.

There is a critical value setting for offense and defense in SAO, after removing the impact damage judgment, it is not possible to block the attack with a shield and not get hurt, which involves a hidden value, which can be regarded as the armor value, under the continuous attack, the armor value will be cleared after the defender will be judged to be damaged, and this damage is not direct damage, so the defender has an advantage in this judgment standard.

Even so, in such a fierce battle, a small amount of health can be the last straw that breaks the camel's back.

As for drinking potions or using recovery crystals, it can be said that whoever uses them first will die first.

If the sky has been suppressed, then there will only be two outcomes in the end.

One is that Xiangkong's HP will be reset to zero first, and the other is that Sephiroth's weapon durability will be reset to zero, both possibilities are available, but Xiangkong doesn't want to gamble, so he's been looking for opportunities.

His gaze remained on the blade running at high speed, and he kept thinking about the possibility of withdrawing his shield to dodge an immediate counterattack, but Sephiroth's sword dance was too terrifying, more difficult and diverse than Asuna's monotonous stabbing attack, so although he had the mentality of trying, he couldn't take that step, because if he took the wrong step, then the situation would be settled in an instant.

"No one can stop me!"

The sound of breaking the air and the clash of iron resounded across the plain, and Sephiroth laughed wildly.

Xiangkong looked at him coldly, the shield's skill mercy can stun the opponent for at least a second, but releasing the skill requires a specific starting posture, if the opponent detects it in advance, the chance of hitting will be greatly reduced, but you can still give it a try, this is an opportunity.

After making up his mind, he slowly adjusted his stance as he parried, hoping to use his skills as quickly as possible.

Sephiroth noticed the strangeness of flying in the sky, and a faint chill suddenly flashed in his eyes.

Xiangkong didn't know about all this, and when the posture was almost the same, he immediately released his skill, only to see the gem on the light of mercy appear.

"It's just waiting for you to make a move!"

Sephiroth sneered loudly, closing his eyes almost at the same time, and stabbed his sword into the sky's unshielded side.

Xiangkong's pupils suddenly shrank sharply, never expecting that his intentions would be detected by the other party, and the other party actually knew the weakness of Lu Dao's compassionate gaze.

He couldn't change his movements during the release of his skill, and even though he saw Sephiroth's one-handed sword, he couldn't put his shield across the path of the one-handed sword.

Poof!

A brief but dazzling flash of white light flickered through the second round, and Sephiroth managed to break through the shield in the sky after the second round.

It can be regarded as Xiangkong's luck, in the process of releasing the skill, he was stabbed by a sword, but it was free of the stun effect, and at the same time as being stabbed, Xiangkong immediately retreated a few steps back to open the distance, looking at the amount of blood, but only two-tenths was left, almost to the red area.

Sephiroth originally wanted to connect with the second sword to solve Xiangkong, but he didn't want Xiangkong to fall into a state of hard stun, but he reacted extremely quickly, and immediately bullied Xiangkong backwards, without giving Xiangkong any respite.

"Damn."

The strong sense of crisis made his temples beat slightly, and Xiangkong gritted his teeth to block the attack of Sephiroth like a maggot attached to the bones, and under this compact attack, he couldn't spare time to use the recovery crystal.

"Ha Luha, you're finished! Are you wondering why I know your skills? Sephiroth laughed wildly.

Before Xiangkong could say anything, he sneered: "I saw you use this skill before, which is to make the target stunned with strong light, but the skill system of this game eliminates the magic factor, so I guess that this stun skill can be physically dodged, that is, close your eyes, it turns out that my guess is right, I admit that you are very strong, but from this moment on, you have no chance of winning." ”

"I won..."

The cold voice proclaimed sovereignty, and the sky seemed to be at the end of the road.

Is there really no chance of winning?

In fact, if you can't get rid of Sephiroth's suppression, then Xiangkong, which has such a low HP, really has no chance of winning at all, and besides, there are only two of them on this vast plain, and it is impossible to count on foreign help.

It's never been the style of Xiangkong, and he doesn't want to die so aggrieved.

Since blind defense can't find an opportunity to attack, then simply don't defend.

Xiangkong's eyes suddenly flashed with madness, and when the sword in Sephiroth's hand fell on the shield, he took a small step back, and at the same time let go and abandoned the shield, causing the strength in Sephiroth's hand to fall without a point, and his body leaned forward slightly, and at this time, Xiangkong unceremoniously slashed at Sephiroth.

Sephiroth was unexpected, and put away his sword in time to block Xiangkong's attack, and at the same time sneered: "You will be even more unbearable without a shield, are you mentally prepared for death?" ”

Ignoring it, he dodged Sephiroth's sharp stab sideways, and immediately countered with a sword.

However, Sephiroth was not a vegetarian, so he did not choose to put away his sword to resist, but moved to avoid the sword of Xiangkong, and then swung his sword again and slashed towards Xiangkong.

Unconsciously, the two fought for dozens of rounds, and it was only at this moment that Sephiroth realized that Xiangkong, who had abandoned the shield, was even more difficult, and all the attacks he was proud of had failed, and what made him even more unacceptable was that Xiangkong was dodging from beginning to end instead of raising his sword to block, and when he faced Xiangkong's attack, sometimes he couldn't dodge and could only raise his sword to block in a hurry.

The superiority of the two sides can be seen from this detail, and he is a little angry.

The battle situation is once again in a stalemate, and the two sides come and go, and no one can help the other.

At this moment, Sephiroth's face suddenly changed, and after blocking the sword in the sky, he quickly took a few steps back, and a thick doubt appeared on his pale face.

His raised arm suddenly drooped like a puppet arm with a broken string, and his eyes were wide open and his mouth was slightly open, as if he wanted to say something but couldn't say anything.

Xiangkong didn't know what kind of medicine he was selling in his gourd, but he just looked at him vigilantly and didn't attack hastily.

Suddenly, the edge of Sephiroth's body emitted a faint white light, and at the same time it twisted violently, and after a second, not only was it distorted, but his entire body was in a translucent blurring state, and at the same time, his translucent body was pulling from side to side like an airwave picture.

"No...!

The open mouth popped out a word full of unwillingness.

Xiangkong looked at him stunned, could it be because the real body had died, but his guess was correct.

Sephiroth's HP did not return to zero, but his body began to collapse, indicating that it was caused by the influence of his body in the real world.

"Nope! It can't just end there! ”

Sephiroth suddenly roared wildly, and uttered a complete sentence.

His translucent body, which trembled violently and twisted, was actually back to normal.

Sensing that his collapse did not continue, he was slightly stunned, and then immediately raised his head and laughed proudly.

"See? I resisted death with my own will, Ha Lu Ha, there is no doubt that I am the strongest, this world is really wonderful. ”

Xiangkong looked at him, his mouth open speechless, and a strong surprise welled up in his heart.

This man is not only a madman, but also a monster!

Did you really resist death with your will? Can this be done?

Just as he was thinking this, he saw Sephiroth's distorted smile suddenly freeze, as if time froze, and then, with a bang, Sephiroth shattered into flying corners without warning, leaving nothing behind, and just disappeared.

One second he was still smiling proudly, but the next second he died without warning.

The sudden change made Xiangkong's eyes widen as he watched as the place where Sephiroth had been standing was blank and stunned.
