Sword God vs. Golden Dragon Knight!
Boom!
With a massive roar, Golden Dragon Knight struck first, unleashing a golden spear of light.
"Phantom Sword."
Alexander spoke softly with a smile, his body flickering in the black mist before leaping into the air, effortlessly dodging all attacks.
Golden Dragon Knight furrowed his brow, searching for his target.
"Die!"
A phantom flashed in front of him, transforming into the real body of the Ghost-Faced Dragon Lion.
Bibienne immediately thrust her dragon spear forward, releasing a torrent of battle energy like a river, forming a beam of destruction that obliterated everything in its path!
However, the next moment, the Ghost-Faced Dragon Lion's body dissipated. It was nothing more than an illusion.
"I'm behind you." Alexander laughed lightly, his sword flashing coldly as it unsheathed.
Critical Hit -14,000!
Critical Hit -13,000!
...
Bibienne swung her spear angrily again, but Alexander vanished like a ghost, reappearing behind her to strike once more.
Alexander moved like a phantom, his strikes executed from angles unimaginable to most, his precision and agility beyond belief. This display left everyone in awe, particularly the warrior players, who were stunned.
No one had ever expected a warrior class to use regular attacks in such a way.
James's expression darkened. "There's a freak who's bringing game skills to real life, and now someone's bringing swordsmanship to the game…"
Alexander continued to launch surprise attacks on Golden Dragon Knight, landing successful blows before quickly retreating.
"Annoying flies, die!" Golden Dragon Knight roared in anger, his dragon spear shooting through Alexander's body with lightning speed.
-mlss!
But the calm Alexander smiled as his body dissipated once again in the wind, reappearing from behind Golden Dragon Knight to land another combo hit.
"What… what the hell is this? A player or a ghost?" Slaughter Spree asked in complete shock.
Orson wasn't too surprised. Sword God was known for his exceptional use of the Phantom skill.
His mount wasn't just a powerful beast; it also came with a massive area-of-effect curse aura and was skilled in illusions.
Alexander's Phantom skill could create one or more versions of him to deceive his opponent during the skill's downtime. Together with his mount, this duo was nearly unstoppable!
"It's down to 5%!"
"My God! That didn't even make him lose a single drop of blood!"
"This warrior is simply insane! In some ways, he's stronger than Orgod!"
The battle raged on for over an hour, with Alexander's exaggerated attacks leaving the crowd dumbfounded.
"Rubbish. If it were Orgod, Golden Dragon Knight would have been gone a long time ago. Why is it taking so long?" Slaughter Spree snapped, having downed several bottles of alcohol, turning into Orson's sycophant.
Alexander's performance continued, and Golden Dragon Knight's fury only grew.
Facing an opponent who seemed to slip in and out of existence, Golden Dragon Knight's powerful battle aura was rendered almost useless.
Critical Hit -8,000!
Critical Hit -7,700!
...
"Shit… He might actually win, his health is down to 3%."
Slaughter Spree sounded displeased. Losing to Orgod had already been a nightmare, and now they were faced with this absurd new challenger.
"Not necessarily. He can't keep hitting Golden Dragon Knight like this," Blank's eyes flickered.
Critical Hit -6,000!
Critical Hit -5,700!
...
As Golden Dragon Knight's health neared a critical point, the players watched in shock as the boss's entire body turned a golden hue, almost as if merging with the golden dragon itself.
Despite Alexander's incredibly high critical hit rate and his impeccable accuracy, his damage output began to drop dramatically.
Only 900,000 health left!
The critical damage had fallen below 2,000 points!
And to make matters worse, Alexander wasn't wearing any armor, relying entirely on high-level potions from his inventory to sustain him. It wouldn't be long before his mana ran out.
"Pure critical damage isn't enough to win this," Alexander whispered to himself, hidden in the mist.
His gaze shifted to the S-class ultimate skill Self-Sacrifice, listed in his skill menu.
Effect: Reduces health by 99%, increases attack power by 10 times, with a high chance of landing a fatal blow.
However, this powerful buff came with a fatal flaw: during this state, no skills could be used. That meant he wouldn't be able to use Phantom Sword to dodge.
"I have no choice," Alexander sighed softly.
With a swift motion, he appeared behind Bibienne, his sword hovering in front of him, exuding a celestial aura like a fallen immortal, radiating an unmistakable kingly presence.
At the same time, the Ghost-Faced Dragon Lion erupted with dark mist, creating dozens of illusionary copies of Alexander, maximizing the confusion it caused to Golden Dragon Knight's senses.
"My lord's rise and fall."
The voices of dozens of illusionary clones resonated in unison, filled with the commanding tone of a ruler, sending chills down the spines of everyone below.
The illusions and the true body pressed their fingers downward simultaneously, and in an instant, sword energy surged, changing the winds and skies.
Clang!
Golden Dragon Knight's neck sparked as Alexander's legendary sword, guided by his control, pierced deeply!
Fatal Strike -500,000!
A massive damage number appeared, and everyone below was left in stunned silence. The boss now had less than 1% health left!
"Dust to dust, earth to earth."
Alexander's face was solemn, his gaze unshaken as he swiftly struck with a second blow.
"Your naivety surprises me, adventurer."
However, just as Alexander's sword descended, a mocking voice echoed, completely shattering his kingly composure.
Golden Dragon Curse · Stone Shatter!
Bibienne roared in fury. The moment Alexander's sword struck, a loud metallic sound rang out, and the tip of his sword shattered like paper.
-mlss!
The legendary weapon had broken!
"My god… what kind of monster boss is this? Golden Dragon Knight is this insane?"
"His legendary weapon is shattered—this is absurd!"
A wave of shock spread through the crowd below. No one had expected this unexpected turn of events.
"How could this happen..." Alexander muttered, forcing a bitter smile. Even Sword God didn't anticipate this outcome.
Without his sword, what could Sword God do? Was he supposed to headbutt the boss for the final blow?
"You expected this outcome all along? That's why you've been so calm?" Blank turned to Orson, who was yawning and barely paying attention.
Orson gave a faint smile and said nothing, as if there was more yet to come.
"Got you, little bug!"
Golden Dragon Knight's vicious laughter filled the air as it grabbed Alexander, sweeping its dragon spear across to sever him in half!
Instant Kill!
"Alexander… lost…" DonutWizard muttered in disbelief.
Wedge's eyes flickered, then he quickly spoke. "Now's our chance! Go, Annly!"
DonutWizard paused in shock, realizing Golden Dragon Knight had just revealed its final trump card. This was indeed a golden opportunity!
Suddenly, snapping back to his senses, DonutWizard mounted a flying dragon and shot toward the floating arena!
"If Golden Dragon Knight is finished, now's the time to strike!"
"Dammit, it's my time to rise!"
DonutWizard sprang into action, triggering a chain reaction.
The other Dragon Knights, who had previously pledged to guard their allies, quickly followed suit, charging toward the arena.
"I'm making my move now, you won't mind, right?" Demon Emperor's eyes gleamed as he turned to Orson.
"Though I'm reluctant to tell you, it's really futile." Orson sighed, pushing his stool aside.
James: "You're not planning to intervene, are you? Do you really want to become a joke?"
Slaughter Spree: "Orgod, Orgod, you've got to keep your word!"
"...Don't worry, I've just been sitting too long, my legs are stiff."
Orson chuckled awkwardly at their anxious faces, stretched his legs, and sat back down.
"Clear the field!"
Demon Emperor's voice rang out with authority, and Slaughter Guild immediately sprang into action.
