With this snowballing effect, Mitt felt that he could successfully complete the game in just two or three months.

"No game has ever been able to unite the power of all players..."

That's why she joined the team.

Time passed by, and five hours later, the group found themselves in a safe room on the twentieth floor of the underground maze, a room where monsters would not spawn.

"Let's take a break and get ourselves in shape. The BOSS room is just ahead." Xia Jia sat down first and closed her eyes to rest.

Yuki followed suit, sitting cross-legged and muttering something under her breath.

Mitt, sporting dark circles under his eyes, looked at the three of them with a puzzled expression: "Aren't you going to discuss how to defeat the boss?"

"In my experience, it would be very difficult for us, at level 9, to defeat that lord."

Shaga raised his eyelids and said calmly, "Of course we'll go for A. Your task is to hold off the monster's guards so I can fight the kobold lord one-on-one."

“This…” Mite was a little worried.

Shaka added, "Don't worry, I didn't even consider you in the first place. Yuki will take care of one of the three guards first; you're just insurance."

Ok……

Mitt bit her lower lip. The second-place winner in the closed beta was just a bonus for you. If it weren't for the fact that this person hadn't lost a single drop of blood since the start of the game, she would have definitely exploded on the spot.

Three hours later, Mitt woke up groggily, feeling refreshed and rejuvenated.

The four of them walked around the corner and stood at the door of the boss's room.

Shaga pushed open the door and saw the kobold lord standing in the center of the hall.

"Alright, are you ready? Let's begin!"

Yuuki raised her weapon high: "My short sword is itching for a fight!"

Asuna remained silent, placing her hand on the rapier.

Mitt ruffled his hair: "Ah, whatever, I'll risk it all! So what if I die! At least you guys have to make sure I'm the last one to fall!"

"Stop talking nonsense! Get started!"

With a whoosh, Xia Jia took the lead and rushed out.

The system automatically used a diagonal slash, speeding up Shaga's attack activation.

A line of health appeared first on the kobold lord, and a total of four health bars were displayed, with less than 1% of the health bar dropping.

"The weapon is too weak!" Mitt followed closely behind, swinging his scythe to block an attack from a guard.

Beside her, a purple radiance bloomed.

"Ughh ...

[Aria of the Virgin Mary]

Yuki's wings unfurled, and twelve lightning-fast slashes descended, piercing through the kobold guard.

Two lines of blood flowed away like water bursting from a dam, then exploded into points of light in the next moment.

"Health bar disappearing spell!" Mite exclaimed in surprise.

Although I knew Yuki's skills were strong, I didn't expect them to be this strong. She actually killed the lord's elite guards with a single blow!

"Switch!"

After unleashing her skill, Yuuki shouted, and Asuna rushed out, using a [Linear Thrust] to stop the second kobold guard who was following behind.

With the two working together, the monster's health bar was rapidly decreasing.

"Yoshi! This will work! As long as Commander Xia stops the lord, we can deal with the guards and then go help him!"

Mitt was thinking this when, caught off guard, he was cleaved away by the kobold's axe. His chest armor shattered, and his health bar plummeted, only stopping when it was half full.

"hateful!"

Mito looked at the monster that Asuna had instantly taken over and cursed himself for being useless.

I don't know when it started, but Asuna, who was always inferior to me, has also become such a master.

She gritted her teeth, put on her spare armor, drank two bottles of recovery potion, and charged forward again:

"Don't underestimate me!"

With a splatter, blood and flesh flew everywhere, and the kobold guard's life was cut short.

The three continued their fierce battle.

Shaga, on the other hand, was even more relaxed. He finished his thrust and moved around the kobold lord step by step. After casually thrusting out his sword, he simply turned slightly to the side and dodged its giant axe strike.

Taking advantage of the moment the opponent slashed, he raised his hand and slashed down, leaving three clear marks on its arm.

"Roar!!"

Shaja lowered his eyes and clearly caught the change in the kobold lord's right leg muscles. He then lunged sideways and entered the area around the lord's rear ankle.

The kobold lord swung his battle axe forward, but it reached its limit right where Shaga was.

"A program is ultimately just a program... No matter how high the data is, it's just a target."

As Shaka continued playing, he even started yawning. He simply closed his eyes, and the world transformed into a fantastical scene in the next second.

"what?"

An inexplicable feeling enveloped Xia Jia.

A faint, almost imperceptible feeling surfaced in his mind.

"This is... a microcosm?"

Shaka, in her spirit form, unexpectedly discovered a problem.

Both Yuuki and Asuna exude an aura of cosmos, but the monster before them does not.

"Is it because it's related to data?"

This difference deepened his understanding of the microcosm. With his eyes closed, the battle was like having his senses sealed, leaving him to rely solely on his sixth sense for judgment.

He jerked his head back, a gust of wind flashing past his nose as the axe blade grazed past Shaka's eyes, almost hitting its target.

"interesting."

Xia Jia curled the corners of his mouth, and a sudden burst of spiritual light appeared on his body. He unleashed his full potential with [Talent Brilliance] and sensed the non-existent monster.

Swoosh, swoosh, swoosh.

Shaga rises and falls, flipping and slashing horizontally, sliding and cutting downwards, sometimes stepping on the opponent's knees, coming face to face, and slashing at the kobold lord's neck.

The health bar dwindled bit by bit, but the monster didn't manage to land a single hit on Shaga.

until a certain moment.

"We're here to help you!"

Yuki and the others dealt with the guards, and a dazzling purple light erupted in front of the kobold lord. The 12 sword holes converged in an instant, and a rose bloomed with a bang.

brush--

Originally, they only had two and a half health points left, but in an instant, they dropped a large chunk, falling to the last health bar. The red health bar warned everyone of the danger.

The kobold lord unleashed a terrifying shockwave, freezing the surrounding players in place. Simultaneously, he crouched down and drew his broadsword from his back.

"It's been a long time coming!"

Having noticed something was wrong with it long ago, Shaka broke out of the control zone at the beginning. Now he rushed forward, his eyes shining with golden light. His powerful soul force broke through the system's restrictions, transforming into a starlight, and carried Yuki away from the kobold lord's attack range.

brush--

A massive sword slash flashed by, leaving the area empty.

The next moment, Shaga suddenly appeared in front of the kobold lord, holding two swords in his hands, his eyes gleaming with a light that symbolized his disregard for all control.

The kobold lord really wanted to say, "You're cheating."

But Shaga couldn't understand the monster's roar. A playful smile curled at the corner of his lips as he sneered:

"Who says you can only perform combos if you master dual swords!"

"Watch my hand-crafted version! Starburst Abandon Healing Slash!"

Taking advantage of the moment when the kobold lord was in a state of stun, 16 high-speed slashes transformed into alternating layers of blue waves.

The kobold lord's health dropped instantly, and Mito and Asuna, who had recovered from their stun, seized the opportunity to rush out as well.

As the skill's brilliance faded, the kobold lord let out a defiant roar before exploding into dust.

At this moment...

The news of clearing the level appeared before all the players' eyes, leaving those still wielding their swords on the first floor stunned for several dozen seconds.

"So... I've cleared the first level?"

"So, at most, we can get out in 50 days?"

"That's not how it works. They only have four people. We also have closed beta testers and a strategy team. The speed will definitely increase as time goes on!"

Suddenly, the young players who were carrying bricks worked even harder.

They realized that as long as they worked hard enough, they could not only get bonuses and honors, but also end their current lives sooner!
