"Poof...! Poof...! ”

On the bright red and steely square, the sound of the blade digging deep into the flesh continued to resound, and it lasted for a long time.

Both Rogen and Heathcliff were trying their best to exert force on their weapons, glaring at each other in an attempt to drain each other's HP.

In this case, the HP of the two of them has been reduced very much, and they have already approached the bottom line.

It's just a matter of seconds.

However, in the short seconds of these few seconds, Heathcliff, who had been staring at the HP slot of the two men, confirmed it.

"I won."

That's right.

It was Heathcliffe who won.

Because, in the continuous decline of HP, Luo Zhen is undoubtedly declining much faster than Heathcliff.

And that's a matter of course.

In order to reduce the weight, make his inventory hold more items, and for the sake of lightness and mobility, Luo Zhen gave up the armor and leather armor with high defense, and mainly used the cloth with the lowest defense.

Although after the production of master-level production players and the enhancement that has already reached the limit, Luo Zhen has a defensive power comparable to armor in a cloth suit, but Heathcliff is not inferior to Luo Zhen at all in this regard, and it is not mainly cloth-based, so his defense power naturally surpasses Luo Zhen.

In this way, all that remains is the gap between level and skill.

After all, the higher the level, the higher the player's HP.

It's a pity that in terms of level, Heathcliff is also not lost to Luo Zhen, and he is the same level 99 as Luo Zhen, only one step away from level 100.

As for the skills, Luo Zhen has already fully learned the "Recovery in Battle", and has learned the skill of "Emergency Recovery", which can speed up the recovery effect when the HP enters the red area, and now it is also recovering the HP value in seconds, allowing Luo Zhen to hold on for a few more seconds.

However, Heatscliff has not only fully acquired "Combat Recovery", but also the "Emergency Recovery" skill, and even the "Damage Reduction" skill, which is rare among tank-type players————.

The effect of this skill is as the name suggests, so I don't think it needs to be said.

And Heathcliff learned "Damage Mitigation" as well.

There are four skills that Heatscliff has fully learned———— "Holy Sword", "Recovery in Battle", "Damage Reduction", and "Light Shield Defense".

Thanks to this, Heathcliff's HP is declining much lower than that of Rozhen.

That being the case, Heatscliff was naturally able to confirm his victory.

"It's a shame, President Luo Zhen."

Heathcliff calmly told the truth in an indifferent tone.

"In the end, I'll be the one who wins, and you'll be the one who exits here."

In other words, players will lose their greatest hope, no one will be able to take them through the various floors without damage, and there will be no one who will instigate the people of the strategy team to benefit the players at the lower and middle levels, and stop the evil deeds of the Red Guild and the Orange Guild.

Players in SAO will suffer this tragic loss, and in the future, they will keep reminiscing about Luo Zhen's goodness, while wailing for the loss of hope.

"But no problem, people are a strong creature that will be reborn in desperate situations, and if you lose you, they may suffer a lot of pain, they may suffer a lot of sacrifices, and they will lose a lot of protection, but there will definitely be people who will carry all this forward and finally come to me."

Heathcliff said this in a tone of pity, pity, and contemplation.

"I will wait for them in this ruby palace, and become an obstacle to them again, whether it is the brave man who has obtained the 'Second Sword Stream' or the Rapier Envoy of the 'Flash' who comes to me in the end, or the rest of them."

In the end, Heathcliff was ready to watch all this from the perspective of God.

Once Luo Zhen dies, everything he said will come true, right?

After losing Luo Zhen, players will suffer a lot of pain, and they will suffer a lot of sacrifices, and they will also lose a lot of protection, but if it is Kirito, Klein, Achill and others, they will definitely carry these and break all the way up to face off against Heathcliff again.

The only thing to worry about is Asuna.

Will she be able to bear Luo Zhen die?

This thin sword envoy, who seems to be strong, but is actually weak in his heart, is afraid that he will not be able to withstand the blow and will collapse from now on, and he may not even choose a path of self-destruction.

At least, Luo really has such an intuition.

Therefore......

"Don't talk too soon, Kayaba."

Luo Zhen lowered his head and squeezed out such words.

"Do you think I'm going to sit still?"

Saying this, Luo Zhen slowly raised a hand.

That's right.

Hands raised.

Heathcliff's words, one hand grasped the tip of the crystal sword, and the other hand used the cross sword, and there was no room for free hands at all.

But Luo Zhen is different.

He only uses Deep Blue, and one hand is empty.

"Zheng!"

With Luo Zhen's fist clenching posture, the effect light of the sword technique wrapped around his fist like a whirlpool.

"What...!?"

Heathcliff finally looked shocked as if he had just realized this.

"The smarter people are, the easier it is to ignore the simple things, because they tend to look at the difficult things."

Staring at Heathcliff's shocked face, Rozhen grinned.

"This punch, you owe me for two years!"

The moment the words fell, Luo Zhen's fist turned into a flash of light and smashed out.

The target is none other than Heatscliffe's face.

"Bang!"

The impact exploded in Heathcliff's face, causing the dazzling light to fly.

"Woooooooooooo

Heathcliff snorted, and the whole person was knocked away by the strong impact, let go of the hand holding the cross sword, and even more let go of the crystal sword of Rogen, and flew backwards in a state of losing all weapons, slamming into the bright red steel wall, and sliding to the ground.

And after receiving this blow, Heathcliff's HP trembled even more sharply, and it dropped violently in one breath.

"Drink, ah!"

Rozhen let out a cry and stomped on the ground, continuing to storm in the direction of Heathcliff.

"Zheng!"

The bright red effect light appeared on Luo Zhen's crystal sword again.

With the glow of "Deadly Strike", Rogen blasted at Heathcliff with a blow to vent all the emotions in his heart.

“......！”

Heathcliff subconsciously prepared to dodge.

But at this time, it is too late to hide.

"It's over!"

Luo Zhen announced so, and blasted out the final sword.

It's a pity that this sword is destined to be in vain.

The cross sword that remained in Luo Zhen's body finally took away the last trace of his HP.

"Bang!"

At the last moment, when the tip of the sword was only a centimeter away from Heatscliff, Luo Zhen, who rushed to Heathcliff, froze blue, turned into polygonal fragments, and exploded.
