1668th "Guardian Knight"

"Boom..."

Amidst the heavy roar, the door that had just been opened was closed, making the surroundings dark.

Luo Zhen only felt that the vision in front of him disappeared completely for a moment, but then recovered.

Because, a dazzling light suddenly appeared, illuminating the entire space from top to bottom, driving away all the darkness.

Only then did Luo Zhen see the surrounding situation clearly.

This is a fairly wide circular dome space.

The inside of the dome is like inside the world tree. The floor is made up of many thick vine-like objects tightly intertwined. The outer part of the vines rises vertically, not only forming the wall, but also slowly extending to the ceiling. .

And above the ceiling, there is a decoration similar to stained glass.

The light shines from there, illuminating the entire dome-shaped space.

Luo Zhen saw there.

There, at the highest point of the dome-shaped space, at the center of the ceiling, there is a round door with exquisite decoration, which is divided into four cross-shaped stone slabs and closed.

Seeing this door, Luo Zhen remembered what the statue said just now.

"Should you show the wings behind you enough to soar in the sky...?"

Obviously, if you want to climb to the top of the world tree, you can only pass through that door.

I have to spread my wings, fly there, and open the door. In this way, I have passed the test of the World Tree, successfully cleared this final mission, and obtained the qualification to reach the top of the World Tree.

but...

"The operator won't let players fly there so easily?"

Luo Zhen turned his gaze and looked at the surrounding walls.

There, glass doors like windows are neatly spread all over, like breeding tanks for ferocious beasts. It looks so pleasing to the eye, but it gives people a chilling feeling.

Rozen thought of something.

"Are you waiting for me to fly up?"

Luo Zhen drew the corners of his mouth.

That being the case...

"Then let's try it."

After the words fell, the wings behind Luo Zhen flashed out, and opened resolutely, emitting a little bit of phosphorescence.

Then...

"pound!"

The air exploded under Rozen's feet.

The wings on Luo Zhen's back suddenly trembled, causing Luo Zhen's figure to soar into the sky like a rocket that lifted off into the sky. While raising strong winds, he blew up the atmosphere, making Luo Zhen's figure turn into a stream of light, flying towards the sky. The direction of the door to the ceiling.

At this moment, the vision happened.

"Zheng!"

I saw that among the surrounding light gates, one of the light gates suddenly lit up and burst into light.

The light turned into a human shape and appeared in this space.

Upon closer inspection, it turned out to be a knight wearing silver armor all over his body, with four wings behind his back, a face made of a mirror-like mask, and a large sword like a clock hand in his hand.

"Is that the guardian knight?"

Luo Zhen naturally saw the other party and narrowed his eyes.

And the other party lowered his head, looking at Luo Zhen who was soaring into the sky, a pair of eyes lit up in the mirror mask.

Immediately afterwards, the guardian knight grabbed the big sword, seemed to let out a roar, tensed his body, and rushed down with his whole body, facing Luo Zhen.

The pair meet in mid-air.

And, immediately launched a fierce attack.

"Shua!"

The guardian knight raised the great sword in his hand, as if wielding a heavy stick, he slashed down suddenly, cutting open the air.

"choke!"

Luo Zhen also suddenly pulled out the goblin sword, and mercilessly slashed at the enemy in front of him.

"Clang!"

In the crisp sound, the goblin sword and the big sword collided fiercely, rubbing fierce sparks.

However, the two sides did not have much stalemate.

Accompanied by an astonishing burst of power, the Fairy Sword crushed the enemy like a bamboo.

"boom!"

Amid the sound of shattering, the goblin sword shattered the guardian knight's great sword, and it continued to slash in the direction of the guardian knight.

"Pfft!"

In the sound of tearing silk, the goblin sword cut across the guardian knight's neck, severed his head, fell like garbage, and finally exploded into polygonal fragments together with his weakened body .

Luo Zhen's speed did not decrease at all, passing through many polygonal fragments, and continued to skyrocket.

"Is it that weak?"

Seeing that the guardian knight was actually beheaded by his own blow, Luo Zhen himself looked a little astonished.

The difficulty of this final task, which can stop the nine major races for a whole year and has not been captured until now, must be very high.

Therefore, Luo Zhen has already made preparations, and faced this battle with the mentality of going to fight against the defensive boss alone. For this reason, he also made preparations for the strength of the guardian knights to be high enough to overwhelm the high floors of Aincrad. The psychological preparation of the defensive layer Boss.

Who ever thought that the opponent was so vulnerable.

"No, with this level of strength, it is very difficult to stop a first-class player, let alone stop the nine major races."

unless...

"There is not only one opponent."

Luo Zhen confirmed this.

And, it was confirmed in the next second.

"Zheng!"

"Zheng!"

"Zheng!"

"Zheng!"

"Zheng!"

Just when Luo Zhen was about to reach the center of the giant egg, on the surrounding walls, light gates lit up one after another.

Inside these light gates, guardian knights appeared one after another, like dense swarms of bees emerging from honeycombs, the number instantly rose to an astonishing level.

Some of them held big swords, some held longbows, and some held lances tightly, forming a terrifying army in an instant.

"so much?"

Luo Zhen was somewhat surprised.

The number of newly-appeared guardian knights is astonishingly large, even if there are not tens of thousands, there should be thousands of them. They appeared neatly, and they came to the gate on the ceiling neatly, forming a formation, facing the The looting Luo Zhen completely protected the gate behind him.

Looking at the thousands of guardian knights, Luo Zhen smiled.

Laughed very coldly.

"That's what makes it interesting."

Luo Zhen made such a speech and began to chant the spell.

"————キ・チ・ゾ・デ・モ——"

This is magic that can increase the character's stats.

"———— さ·ば·ぷ·て·と——"

This is magic that weakens both magical and physical damage.

"————ξ·γ·χ·δ·μ——"

This is a magic that increases agility and attack speed.

"———ㄉ·ㄆ·ㄨ·ㄐ·ㄌ———"

This is magic that can add wind attributes to one's own attacks.

These magics are all elementary magics.

However, they actually acted on Luo Zhen.

Especially the last spell was directly absorbed by the goblin sword in Luo Zhen's hand, causing a whirlwind to swirl around the goblin sword.

This seemed to have stimulated the guardian knights, causing them to vibrate their bodies one by one, one by one, and rushing towards Rozen.

"Go away!"

Luo Zhen shouted coldly.

In his hand, the Sword of Storm burst out suddenly.

"Boom!"

In the dome-shaped space, the storm suddenly rolled up.

Almost, covered the whole world.
