Chapter 52: Chapter 52: Fierce Battle
With a slight exertion, Naoki Kirigaya pushed open the door.
The iron door creaked open, revealing a vast palace.
Dozens of pillars supported the roof, and the floor was made of five-colored granite, with lines of unknown meaning etched into it.
A large, flat room.
Naoki Kirigaya looked at his companions and said, "Asuna, you support me. Kazuto and Misumi, you clear the monsters the boss summons. After clearing them, join the attack."
The three nodded. Naoki Kirigaya took a step forward, took a deep breath, and began to walk towards the center of the palace.
A large, burly figure sat above the palace. As they approached the center, the figure slowly opened its eyes.
It was a giant, three-meter-tall beast of unknown origin.
Sensing their presence, the beast stirred.
Its eyes were blood-red, and a wave of murderous intent emanated from it. The beast rose from its throne, jumped down, and landed with a thud that shook the ground. It held a two-meter-long greatsword in its right hand and a round shield in its left. Its thick limbs began to move swiftly, and it charged towards Naoki Kirigaya with a violent aura, Roaing loudly.
Kobold Lord Illfang
The boss's health bar appeared above its name.
It had four health bars.
At the same time, three soldiers wearing metal armor and wielding axes and spears appeared in front of the Kobold Lord.
Ruin Kobold Sentinels.
Along with their names, health bars appeared above them.
Naoki Kirigaya quickly said, "Go!"
Kazuto Kirigaya nodded, "Be careful."
As the two sides approached, they charged forward to fight the Ruin Kobold Sentinels.
Leaving the central boss to Naoki Kirigaya and Asuna.
Naoki Kirigaya stared directly at the Kobold Lord. His body glowed with a blue light, and he gripped his sword tightly. Feeling the immense pressure from the boss, Naoki Kirigaya's blood began to boil.
If he is killed, he will die.
If he is hit, he will be unable to fight.
Naoki Kirigaya was not just data, so he had to be extremely careful when dealing with the boss.
Naoki Kirigaya's cold, reddish-golden eyes reflected the boss's image. His stamina was rapidly decreasing, and a violent power began to gather in his right hand. With each breath, Naoki Kirigaya's aura became heavier. When they were only five meters apart, Naoki Kirigaya stepped forward with his right foot and charged towards the Kobold Lord.
With each step, his momentum continued to build, and with each step, his power continued to compress.
This was the strongest strike of the Sword God Style's drawing sword technique. The violent power caused Naoki Kirigaya's right arm to tremble, and the sword blade shimmered with a dark, cold light.
As his momentum reached its peak, the blue light on the sword blade condensed into a purplish-black color.
Naoki Kirigaya's cold, reddish-golden eyes narrowed slightly, and he swung his sword.
The Kobold Lord's huge, jagged sword was already in front of him, carrying a whistling wind as it struck towards the boy. The blade shimmered with a chilling light.
The immense force cut through the air. Naoki Kirigaya could even feel the boss's intense pressure.
The Kobold Lord's movements were swift, a stark contrast to its bulky body, but if that was all it had, then it was nothing more than that.
Naoki Kirigaya's sword slashed out, the sword left its sheath, the sword energy was near!
The sword energy was like a rainbow piercing the sun. Purplish-black energy enveloped the blade, and a dazzling black light swung in an arc. The sword was swift and violent.
The sword blade carried an immense momentum as it crashed towards the boss. Before the sword could reach the boy, the purplish-black blade had already arrived.
The immense force directly knocked the Kobold Lord's sword away, leaving a jagged gap in the blade. The Kobold Lord staggered backward, but before it could react, the black blade continued its momentum and slashed across the Kobold Lord's abdomen.
The sword blade was sharp, and the sword energy was even sharper. The entire blade was submerged in the Kobold Lord's body.
A huge, jagged cut appeared on its abdomen, and the Kobold Lord's HP rapidly decreased, losing one and a half health bars.
Even more strangely, when Naoki Kirigaya pulled out the sword, not a single drop of blood flowed from its abdomen.
Taking advantage of the boss's stunned state, Naoki Kirigaya switched from a one-handed grip to a two-handed grip. The remaining momentum gathered again, and he gripped the sword hilt with his other hand, exhaled a breath of air, and swung it out again, unleashing another black slash.
The sword blade pierced the Kobold Lord's armor, cutting through its flesh, and blood began to flow.
The Kobold Lord's health bar successfully decreased again, leaving only two health bars.
But it wasn't over yet. Naoki Kirigaya kicked out, and the violent force sent the boss staggering. Naoki Kirigaya used this kick to delay the boss's stunned time, and he shouted to Asuna, "Switch!"
Asuna stepped forward, and the rapier in her hand turned into a blue light, quickly filling the gap in the boy's breathing.
The sword energy was like a drizzle, and the attacks were continuous. The blue light flashed again and again, starting with a linear attack. The rapier quickly filled the stun that Naoki Kirigaya had created, and then quickly switched to a parallel thrust. Two sword lights thrust out quickly. When the two skills went into cooldown, Asuna used another set of sword skills.
The speed of the rapier's flashing increased again, and sword lights turned into shooting stars.
This was also the strongest skill that Asuna currently possessed. The name was just like the sword skill, Meteor.
Although Asuna's attack damage was not as terrifying as Naoki Kirigaya's, it was better in quantity, and the cumulative damage successfully reduced the boss's health bar by more than half.
"Naoki, switch!" Asuna shouted.
Kazuto Kirigaya and Misumi Tozawa had also successfully solved two monsters at this time and were rushing towards Naoki Kirigaya.
Naoki Kirigaya glanced at his remaining stamina. Although the blue light on his body was still flashing, this state could not last long.
Naoki Kirigaya shouted, "Let's work together to solve it, don't let it switch to the second form!"
The violent momentum gathered again. Using high-intensity sword skills twice in a row had already made Naoki Kirigaya a little overwhelmed. He braced himself, his right arm was sore, and this time Naoki Kirigaya directly switched to holding the sword with his left hand.
At this time, his entire heart was beating violently, his thinking was unusually clear, and his mind was turning quickly.
This was exactly what a large amount of adrenaline secretion caused.
Kazuto Kirigaya quickly took over Naoki Kirigaya's main position. All of Kirito's skill points are now on strength and agility, so he will not be afraid of its terrifying power.
