Zongman started from grabbing girls with Wuhe Shidao

[Zero]: I'll come.

[Kirito]: No, let me do it.

After speaking, Kirito closed the chat interface, and slowly regained the sword in his right hand.Slowly move your right foot back with very small movements.Slightly shrink back along with the waist, and make a ready posture for a low-altitude sprint.

However, just as he was about to charge forward, suddenly a pulling force came from behind, pulling him to the ground, and it was indeed replaced by another figure.

The silver figure rushed towards Heathcliff almost instantly, amidst several surprised eyes like lightning.

The one-handed sword's basic advance technique [Angry Stab] was used.

Because the power is not strong, even if it hits Heathcliff, it won't hurt his life.

At this time, Heathcliff noticed the sword tip approaching from the left with a light blue effect light trailing with an astonishing reaction speed, and his eyes widened with a surprised expression.He immediately raised the shield in his left hand and prepared to block it.

However, it was too late, this sword was met with expected and unreasonable resistance.

Just as the sword was about to penetrate his chest, it encountered a wall invisible to the naked eye.

Between the blade and Heathcliff appeared a message that was also purple—that is, the color of the system.

【Immo

tal Object].Immortal existence

Chapter 280 Opportunity

"Zero! What are you doing—" Asuna ran over screaming when she saw Lin Mu's sudden attack, and stopped moving instantly after seeing the message.

And Kirito, Heathcliff, Klein and the surrounding players did not move at all.

In the silence, the system messages slowly disappeared without a trace.

Lin Mu put down his sword and jumped back, opening the distance between him and Heathcliff.

Standing beside Asuna, Lin Mu looked at Heathcliff with an inexplicable expression on his face. It was not a negative emotion such as resentment. Suitable.

"Undead in the system...? What's going on... Captain?" After hearing Asuna's confused voice, Heathcliff didn't answer.

He just stared at Lin Shu with a rather stern expression.

And Lin Mu just shrugged: "You may not believe it, but I just want to stab you..."

Hearing this, Heathcliff was obviously taken aback for a moment, and then he couldn't help chuckling: "As expected of you, Zero, and only you can still be so out of shape at a time like this."

Lin Mu shrugged, noncommittal.

Heathcliff was a little helpless, he shook his head and laughed: "Well, I lost this time again, yes, I am Akihiko Kayaba."

The man admitted his true identity with a flat voice.

And at this moment, everyone on the field, except Lin Mu and Kirito, who had expected it, showed expressions of disbelief.

Asuna's eyes widened and she replied in a hoarse voice: "Is...is it true? Commander...?"

Heathcliff...or Kayaba Akihiko, he glanced at Asuna lightly, then glanced back and forth between the forest tree and Kirito standing next to the forest tree at some point.

Then he sighed: "I see...I originally planned to announce this news on the 95th floor."

After slowly looking at all the players, the smile on his face turned into a detached smile, and the red-clothed paladin announced majesticly: "—Indeed, I am Akihiko Kayaba. Furthermore, I am waiting for everyone on the top floor." The final boss."

"...Your taste is too bad. Is the strongest player directly transformed into the most vicious final boss?" Kirito frowned.

"Don't you think this is a good script? Zero must feel the same way as me, right?" Kayaba Akihiko looked at Lin Mu.

The corner of Lin Mu's mouth raised slightly: "Tirto and I often have different tastes."

Kayaba Akihiko laughed, and then he continued: "I originally thought that this should cause a big climax, but I didn't expect it to be seen through by three quarters of the way."

As the developer of this game, and also the man who imprisoned the spirits of [-] players here, Akihiko Kayaba shrugged while showing a familiar smile.

Paladin Heathcliff looks completely different from Kayaba in real life.But the inorganic, metal-like indifference atmosphere it gives is the same as the faceless avatar that descended on the player two years ago.Kayaba continued with a smile on his face:

"...I originally predicted that Zero or Kirito would be the last person standing in front of me. Among all the ten unique skills, the [Nocturne Song] skill is bestowed on the person who has the most recognition from all players, The [Double Swordsmanship] skill is given to the player with the fastest reaction speed among all players, but because Zero, who has the fastest reaction speed, already has [Nocturne Song], so of course, [Dual Swordsmanship] fell to the second place. On Kuai Kirito, one of you will act as the magic needle for stabilizing the sea, and the other will act as the sharp sword against the enemy. But both of you are stronger than I expected, but... this unexpected development, It can also be regarded as a taste of online role-playing games..."

At this time, a player who seemed to be frozen and unable to move slowly stood up.He is one of the officers of the Knights of the Blood Order.In the small eyes that looked resolute and dull, there was a tragic and distressed emotion.

"You bastard...you bastard...how dare you give...to...to...completely ruin our loyalty—and our hope—!"

He clenched the huge ax gun in his hand, and rushed out while roaring.

There was no time to stop him.He swung his heavy weapon vigorously and threw it towards Kayaba—but Kayaba was one step faster than him.He waved his left hand and quickly manipulated the window that appeared. As a result, the man's body stopped in the air immediately, and fell to the ground with a loud noise.

A green frame line flashes on his HP bar.It's a state of paralysis.Kayaba's hand didn't stop because of this, and continued to operate the window.

"Ah... Zero!" A voice came from beside him, Lin Mu quickly turned his head away, Asuna had already collapsed to the ground, Lin Mu slightly raised his brows, he knelt down on one knee, let Asuna fall into his arms, and turned his head again At first glance, everyone on the field fell to the ground except himself, Kirito and Heathcliff.

"...What exactly do you want? Kill us all...?" Kirito looked at Heathcliff vigilantly and asked.

"How could it be? It's impossible for me to act so excessively." The man in red smiled and shook his head.

"Since things have reached this point, there is no other way. We can only advance the reservation and go to the [Red Jade Palace] on the top floor to wait for everyone to arrive. Although we left it halfway to let the players have the strength to fight against the [-]th floor and above. The power of the monster group, and the blood alliance knights that have been cultivated along the way, and the players in the strategy group are not my original intention, but I think you should be able to reach the top level with your strength. But...before then... "

"For the two of you who have seen through my true colors, I can give you a reward, a chance to fight one-on-one with me here now. Of course, I will remove the undead attribute. If you win, the game will be completely cleared , all players can log out from this world. What do you think? Of course, the two of you decide who will fight. I think this is a very cost-effective thing. After all, no matter which one of you dies, the remaining one , can continue to lead the players to the top—"

Then, as soon as Heathcliff finished speaking, Lin Mu raised his head and looked at him with a smile: "Okay, then I'll fight you again."

"No! Zero,...for now...for now, let's retreat first..." Asuna pleaded, grabbing Lin Mu's arm.

At the same time, Tongren also looked at Lin Mu and said: "Let me do it, you heard it too, that guy said, you are Dinghaishenzhen, with you, everyone will not be in despair, and I am against the enemy..."

"Okay, you believe everything he says, and how do you know that I will definitely lose? Don't forget, in the previous duel, you lost to him, but I won him." Lin Mu looked back at Tongren with a smile.

After finishing speaking, he lowered his head again, looked into Asuna's eyes, and said with a light smile, "Don't worry, if I win him once, I can win him a second time, Yui is still waiting for us, I won't miss the appointment of."

"..." Asuna opened her mouth, but in the end she didn't say anything, she pressed her lips tightly.

"However——just in case, if I die, you have to live a good life. You can't let Yui be young, and her parents are gone." Lin Mu said in a joking manner.

However, as soon as these words came out, Asuna's face immediately turned pale: "Wait! Zero...you...no, let's stop fighting, okay?"

"..." Lin Mu didn't speak, he just sighed slightly and put Asuna down.

Standing up, he faced Akihiko Kayaba.

"I can win." Kirito said, I don't know if he said it to Asuna, Kayaba Akihiko, or other players.

Lin Mu lifted the long sword, pointing the tip obliquely at the ground.
