"Wow, ah——!hh

"Help... Help me! ”

The players in that direction let out panic screams, and the boss's dash was so fast that the members of the tank team couldn't catch up.

- No, there was one guy who caught up!

Although the agility attribute is not outstanding, Heathcliff, who has the Divine Sword Skill Shield Rush, still dives under the scythe at the first time.

He raised his massive shield to fend off the scythe's attack, the sound of an ear-shattering crash rang out, and sparks flew in all directions.

However, the enemy has two scythes, and while his left wrist is constantly attacking Heathcliff, he does not forget to raise his right scythe and slash down at the group of players who are frozen on the spot!

At the critical moment, Xia Qianshi finally caught up, and this time he was prepared in advance, using the [Death Sprawler]'s left-handed knife to block the scythe that the boss swung down.

"Qiang ————!"

It's obviously a bone, but when it collides with the left-handed knife, it makes a metallic collision sound!

Xia Qianshi snorted, and the powerful power coming from the knife made his whole body tremble a little!

However, at this time, there was a crazy aura in his eyes!

Suddenly, he leaped from the ground, and without the help of his left-handed knife, the Bone Slayer's scythe almost grazed his legs!

In mid-air, Xia Qianshi completed the accumulation of his sword skills, and the one-handed straight sword that emitted a blood-red light slashed straight down!

"Demon Sword Erosion!"

"Boom !!"

The blood-red sword slashed into the skeleton of the bone hunter in the air, and under the direct attack of this top-level sword skill, the bone hunter's high-spirited upper body was directly bombarded to the ground!

"Dry... Good job! ”

"It's worthy of Lord Xia Qianshi!"

The momentum of everyone was boosted, and Xia Qianshi's offensive successfully saved the morale of the players on the verge of collapse, letting them know that the monster in front of them was not invincible!

Falling lightly on the boss's skull, Xia Qianshi plunged his one-handed straight sword straight into its eye socket burning with blue flames, raised the long knife in his hand, and roared loudly:

"The front of the boss is controlled by me and Heathcliff, and the rest of the people, let me attack from the side!"

"Oooh oh ————!!!"

Inspired by Xia Qianshi, players have finally been freed from the curse of fear, and the real strategy battle starts from now on!

……

……

It was an uphill battle, and the Bone Hunter was more powerful than anyone expected.

Its main weapon is a pair of sickle-shaped feet, and more than twenty pairs of toes spread over the sides of its body are unmatchedly sharp.

Even a small movement, a spiky toe stepping down from the air, makes people feel the fear that the next second will be the toe piercing through the top of the head and nailed to the ground.

Ever since the start of the war, the screams of the players have not stopped!

However, Xia Qianshi could only turn a deaf ear.

- because he can't leave!

Once there is no one in front of the boss, then the charging boss will not be controlled by anyone, and its pair of crazy dancing feet are enough to transform into a death scythe that harvests the player's life!

Attacking like crazy, constantly slashing at the feet and head of the bone hunter, to be honest, if it weren't for the boss's blood volume gradually decreasing, Xia Qianshi really had a feeling that he was doing useless work.

Finally, after cutting hundreds of knives without knowing it, as Xia Qianshi's last magic sword eroded and pierced into the boss's eye socket, this nightmare-like monster finally turned into particles in the sky and dissipated......

Without looking at the prompt of the system to congratulate the customs clearance, and not even caring about the boss equipment that fell into the backpack, Xia Qianshi subconsciously shouted Asuna.

"I'm fine, a thousand things, I'm here."

A reassuring voice sounded beside him, and Xia Qianshi threw the thin sword that rushed to his side to make the girl embrace the girl.

A sense of exhaustion welled up in their hearts, and the two sat on the ground snuggled up to each other.

It's over...... Is it?

Well...... It's over.

This common thought came to the minds of the players, and everyone sat on the ground like deflated balls, and the only one who could stand was probably Heathcliff.

How so......

Although Xia Qianshi didn't lose much HP like him, this man was like a war machine, even after a high-intensity battle for 1 hour, he still didn't have the slightest tired look.

Raising his head and glancing over Asuna's chestnut hair, Xia Qianshi found that the number of players was significantly smaller than when he first entered.

"Total ...... How many people were sacrificed? Xia Qianshi asked in a hoarse voice.

“…… 5 pcs. ”

Asuna replied with some hesitation, but she was very accurate about the number, because the five players all dissipated into particles of light in front of her eyes.

“…… 5 ...... Is it? ”

To be honest, compared to the previous 48 deaths, now only 5 people died to clear the level, which is already a remarkable record, and no player will blame him when he returns to the safe zone.

But......

This is the first time that Xia Qianshi has had such a big fatal accident in the team, and these five players are all people who follow him after putting life and death on the line.

Looking at Heathcliff, who was still standing there, Xia Qianshi's heart suddenly swelled with fire.

He stood up and walked over to Heathcliff.

"Congratulations to Lord Xia Qianshi." Looking at Xia Qianshi who came over, Heathcliff said expressionlessly: "I took this layer with very few casualties. ”

"Ah...... The casualties were really small......"

Xia Qianshi lowered his head, came to Heathcliff's side, and raised his hand, as if he wanted to pat him on the shoulder.

But his hand was still in mid-air, but he suddenly turned his palm into a fist and smashed him in the face with a punch!

"Bang!!"

It's like being hit head-on by a giant hammer in Heathcliff, being blasted several meters away, and then rolling on the ground several times.

Only then did the players react and shouted in disbelief:

"Summer... Lord Xia Qianshi, what are you doing here? ”

"Lord Xia Qianshi actually attacked Captain Heathcliff, I'm not dreaming, am I?"

"How... What's going on, am I hallucinating? ”

“……”

Hitting people without slapping people in the face, the head of the Knights of the Blood Alliance, Heathcliff, was directly slapped in the face in front of everyone, and a feeling of humiliation rose in his heart in an instant.

He got up from the ground with an expressionless face, and his voice suppressed his anger, "President Xia Qianshi, I need an explanation. ”

"Well, I'm going to ask you for an explanation."

Xia Qianshi said coldly: "When we duel before, what about the pause time trick you used?" Why don't you come out when you raid the boss? If you use that trick, how can you save a few players? ”

“…… I forgot to use it. The explanation that he came up with in a hurry probably made even him feel pale and weak.

"Forgot to use it?"

"I don't think you dare to use it, right?!"

Xia Qianshi forced his gaze at the tall man holding the shield with fierce eyes, "Heathcliff, no...... Akihiko Kayaba!! ”
