Chapter 104 [There Is a "Half-Wolf" Blaze in Front]

At some point, the huge Bear Cinder King had quietly stood behind the four people. Before Asuna and the others could react, it suddenly bit Rock!

Its teeth carried a fishy smell.

"Dang!!"

Rock could only shrink his head and use the King's Army Great Sword in his hand with the scabbard to block the Bear Cinder King's mouth. His teeth cut and grinded against the King's Army Great Sword, making a sound of metal collision. Even Rock, who was close at hand, could see the horrible deformation of the great sword caused by the force of the teeth.

What kind of heaven-defying bite force?

Rock's pupils shrank.

Without time to mourn the sacrifice of the great sword, he immediately twisted his body and escaped from the crotch of the Bear Cinder King.

But before he could run far, another Bear Cinder King not far away rushed towards him!

The huge bear paw waved in front of Rock in an instant.

So fast!

Rock, who had no time to dodge, had to take out his shield immediately and use the shield to defend against this attack as much as possible.

"Bang!"

The bear's paw hit the shield with a trembling roar, and Rock and his shield were slapped away like a kite with a broken string. Then, with a "bang", Rock hit the wall of the misty forest ruins, raising a cloud of dust.

"Oops!"

"Rock——"

Just when the Bear Cinder King attacked Rock, Asuna and the other two had already fled from the original bushes. Seeing that the Rune Bear was going to continue chasing Rock, the three immediately turned around and fought back.

"Pyroxene Demon Gravel!"

Asuna waved her magic wand, and a series of azure particles exploded on the Bear Cinder King.

Klein also drew his bow and shot arrows at the other Bear Cinder King. The arrows hit the Bear Cinder King's body, trying to attract the Bear Cinder King's attention.

In the smoke of the ruins in the distance, Rock climbed up. With the shield to relieve the force, he didn't lose much blood.

He wanted to fight with the Bear Cinder King while circling the Fog Forest Ruins to find the NPC who howled - "Half Wolf" Blaze.

It was just night, the moon was rising, and the werewolf should be howling soon.

If Blaze could make a move...

"Roar -"

But Rock, who had just risen from the smoke and dust, did not wait for the werewolf to howl, but heard the roar of the Bear Cinder King first.

The hair on one of the Bear Cinder Kings was burning with flames, and it kept roaring!

Big body weak gate, more hair weak fire.

Klein just shot a rocket from the bow to help Rock attract attention faster!

"Pyroxene magic gravel! Pyroxene magic gravel!"

On the other side, Asuna did not stop the action in her hand, and continued to wave her wand to release magic.

The attention of the two Bear Cinder Kings was completely attracted by the two of them.

Damn...

Rock frowned.

The reason why the four of them hid was because there were two Bear Cinder Kings.

When I first teleported to the mist forest, I only encountered one of them.

It was actually okay at that time. Klein's warrior class's initial equipment comes with a bow and arrow, and Asuna is also a ranged class. Although the damage to the Bear Cinder King is a bit meager, it is still no problem for two ranged ones to walk away from a Bear Cinder King by pulling back and forth and kiting.

But now there are two Bear Cinder Kings, and two ranged ones are not enough to pull.

Once the two Bear Cinder Kings are furious, they are both finished.

Because I was knocked away, did they subconsciously fire at full power...

Otherwise, with their game awareness, it is impossible to attract the attention of two Bear Cinder Kings at the same time...

Thinking of this, Rock didn't have time to think about Blaze, but chose to run forward suddenly, and immediately removed the flail from his waist.

"Step up and chop!"

This is a combat skill that can only be performed by swords, axes, and hammer weapons.

But at this moment, Rock was forced to perform it with the flail. He used the power enhanced by the combat skill to throw the flail in his hand towards the Bear Cinder King in front of Klein.

The flail glowed white, and like a meteor, it smashed into the face of the Bear Cinder King.

Very good! One of the haters was pulled back!

From Rock's perspective, everything seemed to slow down!

Including the Bear Cinder King that was hit by the flail and turned his gaze to him.

And the other Bear Cinder King that was rushing towards Asuna!

Asuna's face was visibly nervous, and she kept waving her staff to cast magic in an attempt to stop the Bear Cinder King from rushing towards her.

While Rock was rushing towards Asuna, he anxiously called out the equipment interface. The two weapons he had on him were useless, so he could only use the backup weapons first...

Suddenly -

A katana glowed white and was thrown at Rock from Klein's direction!

It was a technique of the "Iai" combat skill, not an attack, but like Rock, the power amplified by the combat skill was used for throwing.

"Rock!" Klein shouted anxiously.

Only he knew that Rock was good at using katana.

The opponent was in need of weapons now.

The katana that has been strengthened three times is currently the best weapon held by the four.

"Snap!"

The accumulated tacit understanding allowed Rock to quickly catch the katana, and then he drew the sword fiercely!

Combat skill "Small Step"!

This is a combat skill that he learned from Kirito during his time with him. With the help of the fast movement of small steps, Rock came behind the Bear Cinder King in an instant.

Combat skill "Iai"!

The combat skill Iai that comes with the katana is combined with Rock's kendo from multiple worlds. In an instant, Rock swung a sword with a wonderful angle.

But once the sword was chopped down--

Rock knew it was not enough.

The current Ring of Magic is different from the previous game in that the values ​​of characters and monsters have changed.

In the previous life, when four players attacked together, not to mention the Rune Bear, even the Beast of Elden could not withstand the beating.

But now, the soldiers at the bottom have not changed much, but the strength of the top has changed significantly. Some legendary characters cannot be filled by the number of people.

Just like the tree guards and the two huge Rune Bears, the closer to the top of the pyramid, the more exaggerated the change in their strength.

Unfortunately, Rock feels that the current Rune Bear is even better than the game.

So he needs a stronger sword...

"Roar--" The expression of the Bear Cinder King was distorted in pain. In pain, he turned around and slapped Rock with his palm.

But Rock chose to close his eyes at this time, and even put the katana back into the scabbard.

Just when the bear's paw was about to slap him!

Rock suddenly opened his eyes again, and suddenly, he chopped out another wonderful sword.

Combat skill "Iai"!

Fighting skill "Step up and chop"!

Fighting skill "Ready Stance·Slash"!

Three swords in one.

Rock combined some of the fighting skills he had learned during these days, and integrated all three fighting skills into this sword!

And each fighting skill can be blessed by "Vegetative Rhetoric".

Talent will make this attack increase the damage three times in a row!

Triple damage pushed the attack power of this sword to an exaggerated level.

The katana in Rock's hand passed through the air like a silver silk thread, instantly cutting off the palm and arm of the Bear Cinder King.

"Bang!"

Most of Rune Bear's health bar was cut off by this sword, and the blood and pain that spurted out made him subconsciously stay away from Rock.

And Rock's energy bar was temporarily exhausted with this sword.

However, Asuna, who he saved, did not relax because of this. Instead, she cast magic at another Bear Cinder King with a more nervous look.

Rock, who noticed this, suddenly raised his head and looked at the other Bear Cinder King.

The bear fire king that he hit with the flail was still burning with flames because of Klein's rockets, and the flames continued to cause damage.

So the flail only attracted its attention for a moment.

The other party's hatred was still on Klein.

"Oh no - Klein!"

Contrary to Rock's expectations, Klein seemed unexpectedly calm and calm...

...

One night in the past, the four of them lay down at the blessing point to rest.

"My friend pushed me out at that time. It was really a headache. That guy kept talking to himself..." Klein said as he looked at the golden tree in the distance.

Klein talked about the drifting cemetery again.

His friend died in front of him.

Rock was almost tired of listening to it. He didn't know how many times Klein had to say it to make up for his regret.

"Let me tell you a story." Rock tried to change the subject.

"Okay, okay." Asuna and Kirito nodded hurriedly on the side, and they seemed to be tired of listening.

Rock: "There is a perverted killer in the border area..."

"There are perverts everywhere here." Klein, whose memories were interrupted, whispered back.

Rock: "She is different. She is particularly perverted. She is a perverted killer who likes to dismember others."

"Just dismemberment..." Klein still refused to accept it. He even stood up.

Rock: "She started with the ox."

Klein sat down.

"She has a huge weapon called the dismemberment kitchen knife. She likes to disguise herself as a finger witch and hunts faded people like us..."

"Okay, stop talking. I am kind and can't stand these words." Kirito interrupted immediately. He was the most timid.

Rock: "Tsk, I was going to ask, what would you do if you met her?"

Asuna: "I'm not afraid. I don't have a ox."

Kirito: "I'm not afraid either. I... will find a way to defeat her."

Only Klein hesitated to speak.

After a long while, he managed to say, "No, I have to run first."

"As the man with the strongest weapon in our team, I can't die here easily."

Klein clenched the katana in his hand.

...

Rock held the katana tightly in his hand.

With his energy bar exhausted, he could only watch the Bear Cinder King pounce on the unarmed Klein silently.

Rock closed his eyes.

He couldn't do anything. The only thing he could do was to recover his energy as soon as possible and then stop the two Bear Cinder Kings from killing the next one.

Cold... He felt the bone-chilling cold soaking his skin. Although he often heard people say that the border was freezing cold, this was the first time Rock had such a real feeling.

Is this what Klein often said, the feeling of losing a companion...

No——

This is not the coldness in the image, but it is really frozen!

Rock suddenly opened his eyes!

The Rune Bear, whose fur was still sparking, had completely frozen into an ice block. The other Bear Cinder King was even more frozen into an ice sculpture from the inside out, following the blood spraying from the broken arm.

In the middle of the two ice sculptures, stood a tall man...or a tall wolf.

A half-man, half-wolf warrior wearing black armor and carrying a huge sword on his back.

And the lonely and sharp aura like a black swordsman...

It was the shadow of "half-wolf" Blaze, the Moon Princess, Lani.

"I'm Blaze." The wolf head slowly opened its mouth, and a rather magnetic voice came out. Standing behind him was Kirito.

As a high-level player, Kirito had no ranged attack to hurt the Bear Cinder King, so his instinctive reaction was to look for the sound of wolf howling.

Then he relied on the power of the NPC to help them repel the Bear Cinder King, which was exactly the same as Rock's initial idea.

"Lucky, Blaze is not too far from Klein."

Kirito breathed a sigh of relief. It was too cold around him. He was still spewing cold mist while he spoke: "Luckily he caught up."

"Thank you." Rock said to the two.

"It's okay. Since he got the code from Kale, I don't think he's a suspicious person..." Blaze nodded.

And Blaze had just seen what happened here. Even without Kale's code, based on his observation and judgment, these four people could indeed be trusted.

Rock didn't rush to talk to Blaze, but walked past Blaze first, came to Klein, and threw the katana to him.

"Actually, I didn't think it would be like this." Klein was silent for a while, and then suddenly said.

"I saw Blaze when I looked up. I thought I could give you the knife and snap my fingers to get Blaze to save me, but I didn't expect that my snap didn't work."

When Kale was teaching special moves, Klein happened to go to strengthen his equipment.

His snap seemed to be just an ordinary snap, not a secret signal.

Klein lied a little. He threw the knife first and then saw Blaze.

Even when facing the attack of the Bear Cinder King, his choice was to give the weapon to Rock, who he trusted most, and let Rock save his teammates.

As for himself...Klein didn't think he was lying. He once said that as a man with the strongest weapon in the team, he would never die. So as long as he threw the valuable weapon to the person he trusted most before he died, it would not matter if he died.

"Even if it's true, it's useless, because I will dismember you later, starting with the cow." Rock didn't listen to the sophistry at all, but said grimly.

Klein: ! !

Rock frightened Klein for a while, and then started to do business.

He came to Blaze.

"Your way of comforting each other is really special..." Blaze heard the conversation just now. His five senses are sharper than ordinary people.

To be honest, I have never seen anyone who wants to cut off each other's dicks after surviving a disaster.

This made Blaze, who had seen a lot of storms, a little restrained: "Ahem... My name is Blaze, and I am looking for a man named Darriwell. This guy is a traitor."

"I heard that he fled here... If you see him, I hope you can notify me, I can provide some gifts."

Blaze was very polite. Even though the four people in front of him were not strong in front of him, he did not bully the weak.

Rock: "There is a sealed prison of ownerless hounds south of Lake Yakir, and Darriwell is there."

"If you don't know the location, the four of us can take you there, just as a reward for saving your life." Rock told the other party honestly.

"Oh? This is... a pleasant surprise." Blaze never thought that he could really get information from these four faded ones.

And Blaze is a wolf. Although he is often alone, he will not refuse group action. It is better to have someone lead the way than to get lost now.

But...

"After we fight side by side, you will not also cut me..." The black swordsman hesitated.

I almost didn't make it. I am a waste. A visit to relatives ruined my dream of writing.
