Chapter 62: First Shikigami Summoning!
So-called "don't court death and you won't die"; Shengzai, although he always jokingly called Kirito a "Guild-Killing Body,"
ultimately, the reason the "Moonlit Black Cats" would be wiped out this time was largely because the blonde guy and the others didn't know how to live or die.
"I also know very well that just using words, you might be quite unconvinced.
You guys aren't thinking of going to the 28th floor to prove your strength? Then let's go; I believe the cruel facts will soon tell you how stupid your previous behavior was."
After a round of poisonous tongue output, Shengzai walked into the teleport gate with a refreshed body, not even bothering with Kirito and the others.
Kirito looked at Sasamaru and the others, who were a bit annoyed but had no way to refute, and didn't know how to ease this awkward situation.
Originally, he found Shengzai to act as a powerful hitter to ensure the safety of his companions, who knew that Shengzai, this guy, had offended everyone in the "Moonlit Black Cats" as soon as he arrived.
Sasamaru and the others, because of Shengzai's scolding just now, were now in a terrible mood; the mood to explore the upper floors was gone.
Originally, they wanted to go home, but they saw a hand stretched out from the teleport gate, not only beckoning to them, but also a voice that made Sasamaru and the others itch with anger: "What are you stunned for? Hurry up and follow; or are you guys starting to be afraid now?"
Sasamaru and the others were originally young and vigorous; facing Shengzai's face-to-face mockery, how could they endure this resentment, so they walked into the teleport gate without a second word.
Sasamaru and the three left; Kirito and Sachi, looking at each other, finally had to sigh and follow.
The environment of the 28th floor is Wolf Plain, which means that before heading to the labyrinth area, a few people have to cross a large grassland.
The monster level on the grassland is about 35, which for Shengzai and Kirito, who have reached levels 46 and 48 respectively, is naturally stress-free.
But for the few people of the "Moonlit Black Cats," except for Sasamaru, the thief, who had a higher level, the others, even if they faced the monsters here one-on-one, were quite struggling.
To prove themselves, Sasamaru, Tetsuo, and Ducker formed a team in front, while Shengzai was alone in the back, killing monsters that came to attack.
And in order to make these guys recognize reality, Shengzai also let Kirito not help them secretly as he had before, unless it was a last resort.
At first, relying on tacit team cooperation, plus Sachi's joining, Sasamaru and the four, although they were a bit struggling, performed quite well.
However, when the hyena group on the Wolf Plain appeared, Sasamaru and the others, whose physical strength was already exhausted, finally began to panic.
Looking at their health bars constantly decreasing, the previous ambition was gone, replaced by strong fear and anxiety.
And just when Sasamaru and the others finally couldn't bear the psychological pressure and, looking at the increasing number of hyenas, took out the "Transfer Crystal" and prepared to run away, a figure suddenly flashed in front of them.
"Aunt Wenren Sword Technique Flow Type 1—Storm Fang!"
A slash like a swift wind directly split the hyena that pounced in front of them into two.
While the monster's health bar was instantly cleared, it also turned into a pile of data and disappeared into mid-air.
And after killing this hyena monster in seconds, Shengzai's movements didn't stop because of this, but he kicked the ground with one foot and made a straight sprint, piercing the hyena's abdomen with the single-handed sword in his hand, and killed his way into the hyena group alone.
"Hey, are you crazy! That's a hyena group! Tetsuo, Sachi, you guys go first.
I can't leave him alone and run away myself, otherwise I would really become the coward and trash he spoke of."
Although Shengzai's poisonous tongue before made Sasamaru and the others hate Shengzai, no matter what, it was a fact that the other party saved them just now.
And just as Shengzai said before, the reason they fell into this situation was ultimately because they were too arrogant and bloated.
If he, who caused everyone to be in danger, left Shengzai, who just saved him, wouldn't he be worse than trash?
And just when Sasamaru stuffed the "Transfer Crystal" to Sachi on the side and was about to rush towards the hyena group with a death-defying attitude, Kirito on the side suddenly intervened to stop him.
"Don't worry, if it's Shengzai, this level of danger doesn't count for anything to him."
Sasamaru and the others didn't understand Kirito's meaning at first, but very quickly, seeing the movement in the distance, they were shocked by the scene in front of them on the spot.
I saw that the place where a large number of hyena monsters had gathered, accompanied by hyenas flying out one by one, and falling to the ground and instantly turning into data fragments and disappearing, Shengzai, who had been surrounded before, also appeared in their sight again.
"Aunt Wenren Sword Technique Flow Type 3—Army Breaker!"
The sword light passed through like flowing clouds; facing the numerous hyena monsters, Shengzai was like a god of war at this moment.
Not only did he dodge various attacks with a flexible posture, but the single-handed sword in his hand also finished off the hyena monsters that pounced on him one by one!
"Shikigami Summoning·Azure Dragon—Tail Wei Wei Huo Hu!"
And seeming to see that there were too many monsters, and wanting to kill the hyena group with his own strength would be too wasteful of time.
And thinking of the power he had just acquired, wouldn't it be a good opportunity to try it out, Shengzai's mouth slightly raised, and he used the hand not holding the sword to make a quick gesture in the air.
A huge formation was quickly outlined at Shengzai's fingertips, and then accompanied by a pillar of fire shooting into the sky, a colorful giant tiger with a tail carrying flames also rushed out from the flames!
At first, when they saw the giant flame tiger, let alone the few people of the "Moonlit Black Cats," even Kirito was startled.
Thinking it was a wild BOSS intrusion, he drew the single-handed sword behind him without a second word and wanted to join the battle.
After all, the current situation was no longer a time to consider hiding his level and strength; even if he was as strong as Shengzai, he couldn't defeat the hyena group and this wild BOSS at the same time.
His previous behavior of hiding and deceiving the "Moonlit Black Cats" might be scolded and blamed by them, but compared to the danger Shengzai was encountering now, it didn't count for anything.
"Roar——————!"
However, just when Kirito was about to rush up to help, he unexpectedly discovered that the giant flame tiger that suddenly appeared didn't attack Shengzai, but waved its sharp claws and slapped a few hyenas in front of it into fragments in one blow.
"Kirito-kun, that giant flame tiger that suddenly appeared doesn't seem to be a monster, because its attribute health bar is a green indicator."
Hearing Sachi's reminder, Kirito also looked at the Tail Wei Wei Huo Hu with a surprised expression, and finally discovered with surprise that this giant flame tiger that suddenly appeared was actually a friendly force!
