"Attention, everyone! The boss has entered the 'violent stage'!"

Even if the green-haired man is dealing with elite monsters, he always pays attention to the boss's health.

"Everyone get down!"

At the same time, Madara noticed that the 'Kobold Lord' had dropped the battle ax in his hand and drew out the decapitating sword from his back.

At this time, the Boss had already entered the "Hegemonic State" emitting golden light and stood up forcefully. The Pokémon's control skills had no effect.

Most of the more than two hundred people immediately fell to the ground when they heard Madara's voice. Although they didn't know why, they were still convinced by Madara's words.

However, there were a dozen people who jumped into the air when Madara opened his mouth. Even if they noticed something was wrong at this moment, it was too late.

Because the Boss has already swung the decapitating sword towards the surroundings, forming a huge range of 'drawing the sword' skill.

"Trumpet Bud, use Vine Whip!"

At the critical moment, a player below asked his Pokémon to use a skill, and dark green vines flew out and forcibly pulled the two players to the ground.

But the other dozen or so were not so lucky, and were completely overwhelmed by the Boss's sweeping attack.

Red knife marks suddenly appeared on the waists of more than a dozen people, and their blood volume also dropped sharply. There were also two or three unfortunate people who were critically hit and their health bars were emptied and disappeared into pieces.

‘A closed beta player? ’

Madara glanced at the dozen people and immediately knew their identities.

Because during the closed beta period, after the first-level boss "Kobold Lord" entered a violent state, he would draw the scimitar from behind and hit the ground hard, causing all players to fall. Only jumping up could avoid this move.

But now during the closed beta, the Boss' actions are obviously different from those during the closed beta.

Madara had anticipated this since he saw the changes in the weapons behind the kobold lord, but he just didn't know exactly what it would become.

Those dozen people actually suffered the loss of knowing the information.

Fortunately, the beta test players have higher levels and better equipment than ordinary players, so the boss's attack did not directly kill all the dozens of people. Only two or three unfortunate people who were critically hit died. .

"Xuanla, catch me!"

Kirito, who was closest to the boss, caught a glimpse of this scene, and his breathing became heavy immediately. He grabbed both swords and rushed forward with Xura.

One person, one cat, and two hands were waving as if sparks were about to fly, frantically seizing the moment when the Boss was frozen to output.

"Heracross, attack randomly!"

Asuna on the other side also attacked with Heracross at the same time.

Asuna held the rapier with one hand, and every time she poked it, the rapier would flash with a white skill light.

She is a player who mainly increases intelligence (increased mana, additional skill damage, shortened skill CD, etc.) and agility (movement speed, attack speed, critical hit rate, etc.), and mainly relies on skills to deal damage.

The movements of Heracross and Asuna were very similar, using their horns to attack the boss again and again.

"Lisbeth, enter."

Madara didn't take action, but pushed the apprentice next to him.

"ah?!"

Lisbeth was stunned and subconsciously greeted her with a punch.

With just such a moment of freezing, the remaining 10% of the boss's health bar was quickly emptied by them, and finally turned into countless fragments and disappeared in mid-air.

The entire boss battle from start to finish ended in less than three minutes.

Reward dialog boxes appeared in front of all players.

On average, the reward of a first-level boss to more than 200 players is almost the same as swiping an ordinary Level 1 mob, but most people don't care.

Everyone cheered and was very excited, which meant that the players had taken the first step back home!

As for the two or three sacrificed people, not many people noticed it, and those who did didn't want to ruin the atmosphere at this time. Everyone ignored them intentionally or unintentionally.

[Congratulations on getting the ‘Midnight Cloak’]

Kirito put the 'kill reward' on his body, and then looked around.

First, he looked at Asuna who was standing opposite, and the latter happened to have settled the reward.

"Hello, you and your Pokémon are very powerful."

Kirito said politely first.

Although Asuna is beautiful, for Kirito, it is obvious that the handsome Heracross attracts his eyes and attention more.

"Thanks, you and your Pokémon too."

Asuna responded with a smile, then touched Heracross beside her, "I was praised."

"Black~"

Heracross scratched his cheek sheepishly, a little shy.

Then, Kirito and Asuna noticed Lisbeth who was still a little confused and scared next to them.

"You are Mr. Madara's apprentice, right?"

Kirito glanced at the gloves on Lisbeth's hand and understood.

As someone who also has a master, he knows that some of the master's skills can be passed on to his apprentices, even the originally 'unique' skills can be passed on.

The passive skill [Fist Style] itself should be the only skill possessed by Mr. Madara. Since the pink-haired girl in front of him also has this skill, it must come from Mr. Madara.

After making this guess, Kirito glanced at Lisbeth a few more times.

But Kirito didn't find any bright spots in Lisbeth. She was just an ordinary girl, and her psychological quality may not be as strong as that of an average player.

To put it bluntly, such a person should have nothing worth cultivating.

Especially in this game where people can die, cultivating such players can be said to be almost a waste of resources.

and

Kirito's eyes returned to Asuna standing in front of him. He felt that Mr. Madara should accept this bold and careful girl as his apprentice, or accept some male apprentices.

He noticed that in the battle just now, the cooperation between Asuna and Heracross was so flawless that it didn't look like an operation that a new player in the open beta could perform.

"Eh? Yes"

Lisbeth came back to her senses and lowered her head in shame, too embarrassed to admit it.

She felt that she had embarrassed her master. After all, the master was so powerful and admired by so many people, but she didn't even have the courage to face the boss.

"I'm sorry, can I ask? Your fighting style seems to be different from most people?"

At this moment, Asuna couldn't help but stand up and ask.

"Ah, this is my passive skill 'Two Sword Style', which is the same as Mr. Madara's and this girl's skills."

Kirito admitted it openly.

In the original work, he didn't dare to expose it. That's because this skill is really 'unique', and he will be targeted once it is exposed.

But things are different now.

The 'Two Sword Style' is unique, but skills with similar nature are not. For example, Madara and Lisbeth's 'Fist Style' is obviously more conspicuous than Kirito's.

With the other two people sharing the pressure, it doesn't matter even if he is targeted. The others are just envious and jealous at most, not to the level of 'hate'.

Moreover, Kirito's biggest trump card now is [Uchiha Style Sword Technique]. This kind of skill that can be used for critical strikes in the later stage is what he doesn't want to be exposed.

Fortunately, the external effect of the skill [Uchiha Style Sword Technique] is not obvious.

As long as they didn't keep an eye on Kirito's critical hit rate, basically no one would notice.

"Well, my [Fist Style] was passed down to me by my master."

Lisbeth, a heartless girl, said it directly, and many players around her heard it.

At the same time, these people's eyes suddenly lit up and they looked at Madara, Kirito and Lisbeth a few more times.

Kirito noticed the gazes of these people and said quickly,

"Although this skill can be passed down, there is only one amount that can be used to establish a master-disciple relationship in the [Master-Apprentice System]. I have already accepted someone else as my master, and there is no way to accept more apprentices, so this skill cannot be taught. other people."

"Huh? Is there such a mechanism? I don't know."

Lisbeth scratched her hair in confusion. She really didn't know about this.

"It seems like a rare skill that only a few lucky people can awaken."

Asuna didn't have anything else on her mind.

After all, she felt that the fighting methods of [Two Sword Style] and [Fist Style], which relied on flat A to deal damage, were not suitable for her.

More than two hundred players stayed here for a while and then returned to the starting town.

The news that the first floor Boss had been conquered spread, and the entire SAO players were shocked. The town suddenly became lively, as if they were about to return to the real world.

At 0 o'clock in the evening, the portal to the second floor will open.

Many closed beta players have the idea of ​​​​getting a good sleep now and getting up in the middle of the night to grab the second level of rare tasks.

However, the public beta players did not realize this. They were even wondering why the portal had not been opened yet. After asking others, they found out that the portal would not refresh its status until the next day.

So the players who had nothing to do began to discuss the performance during the boss battle.

On the one hand, Madara's quick reaction and precise command in battle made everyone trust this 'strongest' gold content even more.

Many players have already decided that they will not participate in future strategy battles that Madara will not participate in.

With Madara involved, the probability of their death is greatly reduced.

On the other hand, the hot topic is the trainers.

Among them, Kirito and Aura, Asuna and Heracross are the two most eye-catching pairs.

Xuan La's ability to attract hatred at critical moments, and Heracross' ability to push down the kobold lord in his first form were the keys to why they could defeat the boss so easily.

Then, the fighting methods of Hou Xuanla and Heracross were exactly the same as those of trainers, which also made other players feel that they were extremely handsome and had a good understanding of each other.

Suddenly, both Kirito and Asuna became famous.

The former is called, ‘the trainer of dual swords’.

The latter is called, 'The Shining Trainer'.
