Yi Tiancheng's strength completely refreshed Heathcliff's understanding of the limits of the human body.

He even felt that the man in front of him, the man he was trying his best to contend with, was completely a killing machine in human skin, a terminator in the form of a bionic humanoid, and he was completely invincible.

Thankfully, this is in the game, in the SAO that he created.

Relying on the increase of [Extreme Assist], Heathcliff maximized his dynamic vision, limb coordination, nerve reaction speed and other abilities, which finally reversed the disadvantage and gradually stabilized the situation.

After getting accustomed to Yi Tiancheng's stormy and crazy attacks, Heathcliff finally turned from a weed that was almost torn apart by the storm to a towering tree swaying in a tornado.

Although it seems that there is a tendency to be swept up by the storm at any time, it can bite the earth to death, and it will not move like a mountain regardless of the wind and rain.

That's right, just don't move like a mountain.

In Yi Tiancheng's intensive offensive, Heathcliff had already turned on the [Extreme Support] to his limit, and he could barely keep up with the opponent's attack speed.

The cross shield in his hand also began to turn into a barrier, resisting Yi Tiancheng's attacks countless times, and gradually getting used to this high-pressure and high-intensity offensive and defensive rhythm.

Fast, fast beyond imagination, the offensive edge is exposed, and its momentum is as dense as wind and rain.

Steady, steady as sealed, the defense is brilliant, and its meaning is as solid as a mountain.

Swords and swords, swords and shields, in the non-stop staggered collision, the sonorous sound stretched like rain hitting plantains, and the sputtering sparks enveloped the two of them like iron trees and silver fireworks.

If you're not careful, the winner will be revealed.

As long as there is the slightest omission, life and death will be divided.

Heathcliff's face was cold, his expression was solemn and solemn, and the whole person was already cautious to the extreme, vigilant to the extreme, and calm to the limit.

At this moment, his sensory thinking and brain consciousness are running like a computer, relying on the overload of calculations, trying his best to intercept that glimmer of vitality and chance of victory from Vientiane.

But Yi Tiancheng was the opposite, his dark eyes seemed to be blooming with scorching flames, his handsome face was filled with crazy battle intent, and the corners of his grinning mouth outlined a bloodthirsty grin.

This is not a swordsman at all, but a humanoid beast, unscrupulously venting its anger and violence, and will never stop until the opponent is completely destroyed.

Wine meets a thousand cups of confidants, and the sword meets the life and death of the opponent.

Yi Tiancheng didn't care about the opponent's hanging, but because the opponent could be on an equal footing with him, the whole person was even more excited and fanatical, and then he also burst out with overwhelming fighting spirit and fighting spirit.

His sword is leaping, his blood is burning, his heart is rioting.

Even if the other party cheats, he will never pin his hopes on the enemy, and Heathcliff will make this choice, which in itself does not exceed his expectations.

In addition to [Extreme Support], the opponent has obviously added multiple abilities, the most obvious is that the lower the opponent's health, the higher the corresponding defense value, resulting in a battle that should have ended quickly into a long and protracted tug-of-war.

In addition, Heathcliff also seems to realize that if he has been defending passively, he will still lose sooner or later, so he has come up with the effect of 'Block Stun' and 'Damage Reflection'.

In this situation, once you fall into a negative state such as dizziness, paralysis, slowing down and stiffness, the outcome can be imagined.

Fortunately, Yi Tiancheng has the [Overlord] skill, which allows him to perfectly exempt from the negative effect judgment attached to the shield strike.

And because of Heatscliffe's near-perfect blocking and parrying, Yi Tiancheng can inflict very little effective damage on him, so the damage that rebounds to himself can almost be ignored.

When the battle progressed to this situation, both sides were very clear about one thing, that is, the key to victory or defeat was to see who could hold out longer.

Yi Tiancheng's body was destined to not be able to sustain this high-intensity attack style all the time.

Heathcliff's brain was also destined to be unable to sustain this overloaded consciousness overclocking all the time.

Whoever declines first will make a fatal mistake and then fall into a complete death......

……

The thirtieth floor, the boss room in the maze area.

The members of the strategy group, mainly members of the "Blood Alliance Knights", were still lying on the cold ground.

Due to the suddenness of the previous incident, Heatscliff had not even had time to relieve their paralysis, so they could only stay where they were, waiting for the final result.

Compared with other players who don't know why, although they are also confused, they can at least guess that Yi Tiancheng is crusading against the last boss Heathcliff, that is, Kayaba Akihiko, in the "Red Jade Palace" on the hundredth floor at the moment.

They couldn't do anything, they could only keep praying that Yi Tiancheng could perform a miracle to defeat Akihiko Kayaba and end this game of death.

However, unlike the previous five-second terrifying efficiency on the first floor, this time the time was extraordinarily long, and the system's announcement never sounded again.

Ten minutes –

Twenty minutes –

Thirty minutes –

On the top floor, where no one had reached, fierce battles were still in full swing.

The two sides come and go, the sword and shield collide non-stop, the sonorous sound is endless, the sparks are flickering together, and the swept energy tears apart everything around them.

From the ground to mid-air, from the wall to the throne, the field is constantly shifting, and the only constant is the offensive and defensive momentum of the two.

After half an hour of high-intensity battles, Heatscliffe's impeccable defensive barrier finally began to show a trace of disorder.

Even with the blessing of [Extreme Support], he has never been able to escape the self-limitation of mortals, and his limited mental power and willpower are destined not to allow him to last as long as Yi Tiancheng.

Heathcliff's brain, like a machine that has been overclocked and overloaded for a long time, has begun to heat and swell, as if it is in danger of striking at any moment.

But on the other hand, Yi Tiancheng, the whole person is still aggressive, the attack is still so fast and furious, and the chaotic sword shadow always follows the will of the master, endlessly attacking the enemy from all angles.

His sword momentum was not exhausted at all, and his momentum was not at all sluggish, so that Heathcliff's heart couldn't help but breed a question:

What kind of enemy are you fighting?

After perceiving that Heathcliff had reached the limit, Yi Tiancheng directly burst out suddenly, speeding up the offensive by another percent, and finally breaking through the opponent's sword and shield blockade.

The cold blade of the sword, reflecting Heatscliff's stunned face, pierced directly into his body.

Due to the stacked super high defense, this blow also only deducted a single-digit HP value, but the effect was like the last fatal straw that broke the camel's back, making Heathcliff's already over-tense nerves finally completely collapse.

The tide of battle finally reached a turning point, followed by a domino rout.

Heathcliff did not continue to resist stubbornly, and even his expression and eyes returned to silence, staring deeply at the young man who had finished him, and the corners of his mouth inexplicably opened slightly, revealing a subtle arc.

All the dissatisfaction in his heart before came to naught with the end of the battle, because of such an unbelievable existence, it was only a matter of time before the game was attacked.

As his health was emptied, his whole body instantly exploded into fragments of streamers in the sky, and finally completely disappeared between heaven and earth......

……

Finally, after a long wait, a series of effects that had never been heard before rang in my ears at a very loud volume, a jingling sound, like a bell or an alarm.

And the players on each floor and block also suddenly found that the NPCs in the game all disappeared without a sound.

In the next second, a huge red text suddenly appeared in the dim sky, and when I looked up, I saw that the English words "Warning" and "SyatemAnnouncement" were arranged in a checkerboard shape.

This scene is a scene that every surviving player has seen in their memory.

No one will forget that more than a year ago, the day this game of death began, when Akihiko Kayaba announced a rule change to tens of thousands of players, the same thing happened.

All players were stunned, and the heavy sense of immediacy made them all aware of what was about to happen, so they inevitably panicked.

Soon, the incessant sirens stopped.

After a moment of silence, the long-lost system voice sounded again:

[System announcement: Congratulations to the player 'Brother Cheng of Heaven' for completing the strategy on the hundredth floor, and the strategy of Ayn Grant is officially completed.] 】

[Next, the game will operate in forced management mode...... All monster and item trading will be stopped...... All NPCs have also been evacuated and recovered...... All players' health is fixed at the maximum ......]

[The game is about to close, players will be logged out of the game in order, please stay where you are and wait...... Repeat again......]

At this moment, all the surviving players stood blankly with stiff expressions, as if they hadn't been able to react, and they didn't know what to do.

But a few seconds later, as the system announcement sounded again, someone finally began to tremble.

As the first person jumped up excitedly, all the other players couldn't suppress the cheers of "Wow, ahhhhh

The entire floating castle, no matter what level it is, whether it is a safe area or a maze area, but wherever there are players, this moment is filled with screams, screams, laughter, and wailing......

Everyone threw their weapons into the sky, raised their hands and yelled, hugged each other, knelt on the ground and pounded the ground, and rolled back and forth on the ground......

After more than half a year, they are finally alive to meet the end of the game, and they can finally break out of this death cage and return to the real world after a long absence.

However, when they really return to reality, they will find that there are even bigger "surprises" waiting for them......
