Chapter 72

~7 min read 1,279 words

Although they knew that Shengzai's unique skill was to use an elite monster-level giant flame tiger, in a situation of four against one, Kurethail and the others still felt that victory was in their hands.

But looking at Shengzai, who now had a golden dragon coiling around him, Kurethail and the others frowned instantly.

Clearly, the error in the information made them feel that the situation where they were flying dragon riding on the face had now become a bit hard to say.

"Hmph, it's just changing from a tiger to a dragon; although his unique skill is a bit different from what we knew before."

"But you all just saw this golden dragon; it doesn't have the ability to kill us instantly, and the AI level of the monster is not high; as long as you are careful, it's nothing great."

"You 'Laughing Coffin' are a terrifying organization in SAO, and this time you also took a large deposit from me; you shouldn't be cowardly now, right?"

Looking at the few Laughing Coffin members who showed a little unease, Kurethail also said bluntly with an ugly face.

In order to kill Shengzai, he had exhausted his family wealth this time; if he couldn't kill Shengzai here, then he, Kurethail, would be finished.

"Laughing Coffin" was a red-named guild that everyone shouted to beat, and the barefooted were not afraid of those wearing shoes, but he, Kurethail, was not.

He was a member of the "Knights of the Blood Oath," a famous player in the clearing group.

If this assassination failed, the few people of "Laughing Coffin" could pat their butts and leave, but he, Kurethail, had no way.

If the matter here leaked out, not only would his reputation be ruined instantly, but he would also have to face Shengzai's pursuit at any time in the future.

What made him even more unacceptable was that Asuna might hate him because of this, and even want to kill him, which was absolutely unacceptable to Kurethail!

"How we 'Laughing Coffin' do things doesn't need you to teach us; since we accepted the commission, we will naturally kill him!"

"Ken, Apple, you two are responsible for containing the golden dragon he summoned; Kurethail and I will kill the 'Saint' at the fastest speed!"

The so-called beast tamer had a significant weakness, which was that compared to the powerful monster used, the person himself would be weaker.

Even if Shengzai's unique skill allowed the shikigami monster he summoned to have the strength comparable to an ordinary boss.

But they divided two people to contain that golden dragon, which should be quite enough.

As for himself, the strongest among the three of them, plus Kurethail, could they two not beat a beast tamer who didn't have a monster?

After analyzing the status quo, the strongest of the Laughing Coffin trio, Shadow, hidden under the cloak, also raised the corners of his mouth slightly, revealing a cruel smile.

"Don't waste time, everyone go up together; the other party is a top player in SAO after all; who knows if he has any other hidden means."

Hearing Shadow's instruction, his companions Ken and Apple didn't hesitate, directly leading away the Kang Jinlong summoned by Shengzai.

As for Kurethail, at this moment, he also directly drew his one-handed sword and followed Shadow, rushing towards Shengzai in a pincer attack from left and right.

"Anger Stab———!"

Seeing Shengzai's confident and sunny face, Kurethail inexplicably associated it with the scene of his goddess being held in the other party's arms, so at this moment, he took the lead and attacked Shengzai in anger.

Anger Stab was also considered a quite high-level skill in SAO; at this moment, the long sword in Kurethail's hand was shrouded in blue light, and it shot towards Shengzai's face like a flash of light.

However, facing this swift blow, Shengzai only tilted his head slightly, and accompanied by the sword wind whistling past his ears, he easily dodged the attack.

And after tilting his head to dodge Kurethail's blow, Shengzai took advantage of the other party's skill release, when the body was still in a stiff state, and directly gripped the hilt of the sword at his waist and swung it!

Accompanied by a crescent-shaped blue light exploding in the air, in the next second, Kurethail saw that the hand that was still holding the long sword a second ago had already left his body and flew past his face.

Although SAO was a full-dive game, the pain system could be adjusted by itself, and most players would adjust this pain system to the lowest.

After all, the feeling of being torn apart by monsters, if perfectly restored, was too sour and refreshing.

Kurethail's pain system was also not turned on, so although his arm was directly cut off, he didn't feel pain.

But not feeling pain didn't mean he didn't suffer damage.

Watching his HP constantly dropping rapidly as his arm was cut off by Shengzai's sword, Kurethail's previously slightly arrogant expression was gradually replaced by fear at this moment.

And just as Shengzai was stunned that the other party's health bar was thicker than he imagined, and he didn't kill Kurethail with one sword, and just wanted to make up another sword, Shadow of Laughing Coffin suddenly appeared behind him.

And at the same time his figure appeared, there was an extra poisoned dagger in his hand, which stabbed directly at his temple!

The human brain was originally a vital point; under the power sharing of many worlds, although Shengzai's physical fitness was far stronger than ordinary people, this was a game world, and the body's attributes were all determined by numerical values.

No..., it should be said that even in reality, with his current physical ability, he couldn't do it without dying after being headshot by a knife, let alone the knife the other party had was poisonous.

The sudden attack caused Shengzai to have to temporarily give up making up the knife on Kurethail, but instead turned to use an iron bridge to dodge Shadow's assassination.

And just as his body bent down, Shengzai immediately supported the ground with his hands, and his feet spiraled into the sky, kicking directly at Shadow's chin, who had missed the stab.

This powerful upward kick directly kicked Shadow, who had a look of astonishment, into the air for several meters.

If it were in the real world, Shengzai could be sure that this kick alone would be enough for the other party to die several times.

Because after sharing the power of "Tokyo Ravens World" and "Jujutsu Kaisen World," Shengzai's physical fitness now, strictly speaking, was already superhuman.

With that kick just now, the jawbone of a normal human would probably have been shattered long ago.

But it's still the same sentence, this is SAO, physical damage is not completely absent, but it is far less than the damage caused by sword weapons.

Don't look at Shadow rising into the air for several meters, which looked quite bluffing, but the damage caused was very limited.

Of course, if it were in the subsequent UnderWorld world, that would be another matter.

After all, the UnderWorld two years later, the dive technology was far more awesome than the SAO period, and even the player's physical fitness and combat skills could be perfectly restored in the game.

Shadow, who was kicked away by Shengzai, looked at his reduced HP and Shengzai, who was holding a sword and planning to pursue him, and didn't hesitate anymore, directly took out his trump card, and his figure slowly faded and disappeared in the air.
