"Hmm...!"

Heathcliff finally let out a grunt of bitterness.

The pitch-black drill that penetrated deep into its arm vanished into its bone marrow as if it were intended to burrow into its marrow, and disappeared into the splattered light of the blood effect.

Under such circumstances, Heathcliff's HP slot suddenly shuddered and suddenly dropped a large amount.

The HP gauge, which was originally green, turns yellow in just a few seconds, and is approaching red.

Of course, the decline in HP is a small matter of what Heatscliffe is in now.

It wasn't the drop in HP that was really fatal, but the fact that Heathcliff's Shield had been destroyed.

This represents not only the disappearance of Heathcliff's impregnable defenses, but also a much more serious matter.

That is, the unique skill of the Holy Sword will be lost.

And rightfully so.

No matter what kind of weapon skill you have, you must have a weapon to match it.

The "One-Handed Sword" skill can only be used with a one-handed sword.

The "Two-handed Sword" skill can only be used with both hands and a broadsword.

Skills such as "Curved Knife", "Short Sword", "Flying Sword", "Body Technique" and so on all have their own requirements, as the name suggests, they must be equipped with corresponding weapons, or they must be empty-handed.

And the same goes for unique skills.

For example, Kirito's "Nito-ryu" skill requires two swords to be equipped at the same time.

Heathcliff's "Holy Sword" skill must be equipped with both the Cross Sword and the Cross Shield in order to be able to use it.

Now, Heathcliff has lost the cross shield, which naturally means that the skill of the "Holy Sword" has been sealed.

"Huh...!"

Heathcliff suddenly let out a rare staggering sound, and while retreating violently, he called out the main menu regardless of the condition of his arm.

Although it is not intended to be used in this battle in any case, it is not included as a player's permission.

To make it clear, Heatscliff still has a spare cross shield, which must now be taken out in a race against time.

But Heathcliffe may have forgotten.

Before throwing the props, Luo Zhen had already rushed in his direction.

"Zheng!"

The bright red sword skill effect light shone on the crystal sword in Luo Zhen's hand.

"Deadly Strike!"

His favorite sword technique was also unleashed in Luo Zhen's hand, causing it to turn into a red spear, as if it had broken through the sound barrier, and swept straight in the direction of Heathcliff.

The red crystal sword struck Heathcliff's throat at a terrifying speed.

With the performance of "Deep Blue" enhanced to the limit, coupled with the power of "Desperate Heavy Attack", Luo Zhen is another type with 2 points of strength, and this blow will definitely be able to knock out all the remaining HP of Heatscliff.

And in the face of this blow, Heatscliff had no shield to defend against.

The crystal sword that shone with bright red light blasted in front of Heathcliff.

“......！”

At the last moment, Heathcliff decisively gave up the method of continuing to equip the cross shield, and his face was ruthless, but instead of retreating, he stretched out his hand that was hit by the magic diamond in the face of the sword technique that was approaching him.

"Poof!"

In the crackling sound, the crystal sword that shone with bright red light was held hard by Heathcliff's hand, causing his palm to rub a large amount of blood effect light, which was quite dazzling.

However, this fatal blow was finally stopped by Heathcliff's excellent strength.

"What...!?"

Luo Zhen couldn't help but show surprise.

Even Luo Zhen, who had the "Heart Eye", did not see through Heathcliff's action.

When Heathcliff stretched out his hand, Luo Zhen's "Heart Eye" peeked at this action, but Luo Zhen thought that Heathcliff was preparing to use the "Physical Technique" skill, who knew that it would be like this?

This is also the weakness of the "Heart Eye", although it has a name like "Heart Eye", it cannot see through the inner thoughts of others, and can only see through the phenomenon.

I don't know if Heathcliff knows this, but after holding Rozhen's weapon tightly, a smile immediately appeared on his face.

A smile that puts everything on the line.

Immediately, Heatscliff lifted his crosssword.

This time, Luo Zhen successfully saw through Heathcliff's intentions.

It's not the skill of using the "Heart Eye", but judging from the status quo.

"Not good!"

This time, it was Luo Zhen's turn to change his complexion.

And at this time, Heathcliff suddenly used his hand holding the weapon to pull Luo Zhen, who was also holding the hilt of the crystal sword, in his direction.

In a hurry, Luo Zhen's body directly lost its balance and was dragged by Heathcliff.

In the next second, the cross sword in Heathcliff's hand was aimed at Luo Zhen's body and stabbed down resolutely.

"Poof!"

The cross sword pierced through Luo Zhen's body as it was dragged through, stabbing hard through his back and peeking through his chest.

Obviously, in SAO, he should have shielded the pain in the battle, but Luo Zhen actually felt a tingling pain flowing through his body.

As for Luo Zhen's HP slot, it is naturally declining rapidly.

Heathcliff's blow is undoubtedly a knowing blow, and the damage is definitely not low.

As a result, Luo Zhen's HP slot dropped all the way, instantly falling to the yellow area, and then to the red area, approaching the bottom line.

"Akihiko Kayaba...!"

Feeling the cross sword pierced into his body, Luo Zhen, who finally stabilized his footing, stared at Heathcliff with murderous eyes and called out his real name.

"Sure enough, if you want to deal with the clever 'Magician', you have to use unexpected ways."

Heathcliff endured all of Luo Zhen's murderous aura, revealing an expression as if he had broken through life and death.

The HP of the two of them kept dropping in such a situation.

In SAO, in addition to the medium damage poison, when the weapon is left on the body, the HP value will also be continuously deducted, and it will not stop unless the weapon is pulled out.

Right now, Rozhen's body was pierced, and Heathcliff's hand was clenched with the weapon, and both of them were continuing to take damage, causing their lives to drop.

is so ruthless, so desperate, so bloody, if a third party sees it here, it will definitely turn white with fright?

But Rogen and Heathcliff just stared at each other and understood the key to victory or defeat.

Put together!

Fight to see whose HP will run out first!

As long as it is the first side to be depleted, it is considered a loss!

That's the next winning condition!

"Drink!"

Luo Zhen endured the strange sensation of the weapon piercing into his body, and exerted force on the crystal sword in his hand, causing the tip of the sword that was held by Heathcliff to move again, approaching Heathcliff's body.

"Humph!"

Heathcliff gritted his teeth and tried to clench the crystal sword to stop it, while the cross sword in his other hand stabbed deeper into Rozhen's body with the same force.

All of a sudden, the effect of blood kept coming out of Rozhen's body and Heathcliff's hands.

And the HP of the two of them also dropped at an alarming rate, and finally came to the front of the bottom line.
