Zhang Yu saw that Diabel had already eaten the bitter fruit of himself, and his hands also sped up. Two sword moves to deal with the goblin guards, and then go to Asuna's aid. Kirito had already rushed towards Diabel and picked up the badly injured him.

Kirito saw Diabel's HP blood trough drop rapidly, and hurriedly took out the blood tonic vial from the package.

"Why be alone..."

Diabel raised his hand slightly and rejected Kirito's potion, looking at him with a pale face and gloomy eyes.

"If you're also a Closed Beta player... You should know. ”

Kirito reacted instantly, thinking of the lucrative loot from defeating the boss.

"The target is the rare item that drops by the final hit... Do you also have closed beta players? ”

Diabel's body began to slowly become illusory, and it may also be that people are dying and their words are good.

"Please, put the boss... Overthrow. For everyone..."

"Bang!" With a bang, Diabel turned into a burst of blue data fragments and exploded...

Kirito was shocked to see his former closed beta player companion die in front of him, and his heart fluctuated greatly.

He has never worked hard to level up just to keep himself alive. Therefore, he also abandoned his friend Klein, who had just met in the game, but Diabel did not abandon anyone and led everyone to attack the boss.

Kirito stood up, raised an eyebrow, and looked at the boss who was yelling at the players with a serious expression.

At this time, Zhang Yu and Asuna finally solved the last goblin guard. Run to Kirito's side.

Zhang Yu actually has a chance to save Diabel, and may even complete side quests because of this. But in order not to change the plot on a large scale, I didn't save him.

Diabel is an ambitious player, as evidenced by his rejection of everyone trying to take the boss loot for himself.

"Do you want to go up? You might die. ”

Zhang Yu calmly looked at Kirito with a firm expression and said with a smile.

"It must be on, for Diabel's sake and for everyone's sake."

Kirito clenched the long sword in his hand and said in a deep voice.

"I'll do it too."

Asuna stood silently and whispered.

"Then let's go on, or follow the previous strategy. Let's go! ”

Zhang Yu commanded the two, and then took the lead in rushing to the boss. Kirito Asuna followed, and together the three of them rushed towards the raging kobold lord with their swords like arrows.

"Roar—"

Seeing the three Zhang Yu rushing towards him with a fierce momentum, the eyes of the guard boss flashed with a murderous red light, and in an angry roar, he held the super knife and inserted it back into his waist. Then he grabbed the Notai sword with the light of skill attached to it and stepped on it. Carrying the whistling sound of breaking the wind, he suddenly slashed down at Zhang Yu angrily.

Seeing this, Zhang Yu's eyes were slightly condensed, but he was not afraid at all. The momentum of the body rushing forward did not decrease but increased, and the long sword in his hand tore through the air in front of him after a burst of blue skill light effect was added, and the sharp blade tore through the air in front of him

"Khooth!" A crisp metal crackle rang out, and the super sword slash that the boss was angrily slashing at him was shaken open by the sword just now!

"Kirito, Asuna, switch!"

Zhang Yu, who blocked the boss's attack with a sword, shouted loudly.

Covered by Zhang Yu, Kirito and Asuna, who followed him, instantly swept past him. The sword in his hand is already carrying the light effect of the skill.,Beckoning to the boss who was interrupted and the flaws were exposed.。

"Puff, puff——!"

The boss's residual HP is reduced by one-fifth, but the less HP the boss has, the stronger it becomes.

It's also because the boss has fallen into a state of stiffness repeatedly, so the state of stiffness does not last long, and when Asuna is still in a state of stiffness, the boss has recovered from the state of stiffness.

The boss roared, and the wild sword in his hand suddenly lit up with a red skill light effect, carrying a strong howling wind, and suddenly slashed towards Asuna in front of him.

At this time, Zhang Yu couldn't take care of so much. Because he was still in a state of stiffness, he could only forcibly increase his mind control consciousness and rushed over.

All the players present and Kirito quickly ran to Asuna and blocked the boss as they stared at Zhang Yu's body, which was slightly thin compared to the boss.

"Roar!"

Seeing that the small human took the initiative to block in front of him, the kobold lord shifted the target, and the raised sword slashed at Zhang Yu fiercely.

Zhang Yu had no time to trigger the blocking skill, so he could only hurriedly raise his sword to block. was picked open by the boss at will, and quickly slashed Zhang Yu in the chest.

"Bang-"

Zhang Yu flew upside down with Asuna behind him, slamming heavily on the ground.

After the skill stiffness time passed, the boss waved the super knife, and a sharp wind blew out of thin air, and his red eyes stared at Zhang Yu lying on the ground in the distance, and its hatred was still on Zhang Yu. Just when it wanted to take advantage of the victory and chase after it.

Players such as Achill and Kirito raised their weapons and shouted, rushing towards the boss of the gatekeeper.

"Let's go too!"

"I'll leave it to us."

…………

And Zhang Yu is not worried that he will be killed by the boss in seconds. Because he calculated that it was more than enough to block the boss with full blood. After all, Diabel was able to catch two knives before, not to mention that his equipment attributes were stronger than Diabel.

Because SAO does not have a pain system, Zhang Yu did not feel the pain of screaming. Sensing the softness behind him, he quickly stood up and looked behind him.

What I saw was Asuna lying on the ground, her cloak had fallen off, her chestnut-colored hair was tied back with braids on both sides, her little goose egg face, and her large hazel pupils that shone brightly. Under the small and straight bridge of the nose, the cherry blossom-colored lips add another touch of grace to her beauty.

Asuna also stood up slowly, looking at Zhang Yu with a complicated expression in her orange eyes like hair color. Silently, he took out a bottle of recovery potion and handed it to him.

"Why do you want to be so nonsense, if you are hit by that kind of attack, it won't be strange that you will die. Why do we do it to this extent, we are just strangers who have just met. ”

Asuna asked Zhang Yu with a little excitement in a crisp and ethereal voice.

"Thank you. And as I said, if you want to die in my team, I will die first. Hehe. ”

Zhang Yu took the potion and drank it, then said with a calm smile.

Asuna looked at Zhang Yuwen and said with a gentle smile, and the heart that had never fluctuated had a little fluctuation.

"I... Gotta help them. ”

Asuna silently turned her head to look at the boss, looking at the white-hot battle circle, her eyes gradually sharpened. It was at this moment that the glittering acpier, known for the game, gradually took shape.

"Stay safe."

Wang Yang glanced at the slowly recovering HP, and then at Kirito and the others who were fighting hard. The boss's HP has also bottomed out, so he nodded and said.

Asuna answered, her long hair flying like the wind and rushing towards the white-hot battle circle.

"Sonorous ——!"

The sword light flickered, the sword shadow danced, and the piercing sound of sword clashing resounded in the hall again and again, and the fierce sparks of confrontation burst out between everyone and the boss...
