"Gu!"

"Woo!"

Just as the duel began, Caidie and Huadie made excited screams, then dispersed to both sides, dragging their long light tails and flew to the outside of the battlefield.

Luo Zhen rushed forward under the flashing special phosphor powder sprinkled by the colorful butterfly and flower butterfly. The light was flowing on the sword holding a one-handed sword in his hand.

That is not the unique effect light when activates the sword technique, but the enhanced light that represents the weapon itself.

After four months, when he arrived at the 26th floor, Luo Zhen naturally could not have used the original (Sword of Refining + 8), but replaced it with a higher performance weapon.

Just as Kirito said at the time, Luo Zhen now holds several very high-performance weapons, and each one is comparable to Kirito's main weapon.

At this time, Luo Zhen used a weapon that he usually cherished (King of the Kingdom Protecting Sword +20).

This weapon was a royal special national protection sword obtained from the escaped princess after completing a series of tasks when Luo Zhen obtained two flags for subdueing flowers and butterflies. It has extremely high performance, and it is completely fine even if it is used on the 30th floor.

In addition, Luo Zhen strengthened it to +20, the performance of this sword is so high that even the 25th layer defending boss, which caused almost all the troops to be wiped out by (Ein Grandet Liberation Team), can cause a lot of damage, which is not comparable to ordinary-quality weapons.

This is second.

The most important thing is that this sword also improves both str (str) and agi (agility) by 10 points, which is very rare and rare.

Therefore, among Luo Zhen's several weapons, this (King of the Kingdom Protective Sword +20) can be said to have the highest performance.

However, this sword also has its disadvantage, that is, its durability is relatively low and cannot be used all the time.

In view of this, Luo Zhen would prepare several weapons as backups, otherwise it would be enough to just use this national protection sword.

Now, Luo Zhen pulled him out in this duel.

Facing Hitzcliff, Luo Zhen had no intention of hiding his strength, and he would use it both in magic and weapons.

I don't know if Hizcliff discovered this. The leader of the Knights put the cross shield in front of him, and the cross sword was hidden behind the shield. He was like a general who charged into battle, and quickly rushed towards Luo Zhen with an extremely calm expression.

In a blink of an eye, the two met at the location where the duel window had just flashed.

"Bang!"

It was not until this moment that Luo Zhen stepped hard and dodged to the side.

When facing a shield-holding opponent, the first thing you should do is try not to confront each other head-on.

Because, attacks issued on the front will basically be blocked by the shield, and the best way to deal with them is bypassing the shield and attacking the opponent.

Of course, the opponent is not a fool.

(It is not difficult to guess my plan to bypass it. Hitzcliff will definitely launch an attack while confirming it, or even launch a sword skill, so that I, who is in a dodge, cannot avoid it.)

At that time, Luo Zhen can also use his sword skills to bounce off Hizcliff's attack, and then let Caidie and Huadie use negative state skills against Hizcliff when both sides fall into the hard straightness of their sword skills at the same time.

I believe that even the boss of the guard layer cannot avoid, the skills of the Rainbow Flower Butterfly should be enough to control the mere players, right?

By then, Luo Zhen’s victory will be basically confirmed.

Luo Zhen made such a plan.

Unfortunately, Luo was really wrong.

Hitzcliff did launch an attack.

If that was the attack of the one-handed sword that Luo Zhen was familiar with, Luo Zhen would definitely be able to accurately block it and even bounce it away.

However, at this moment, the attacks used by Hitzcliff were far beyond Luo Zhen's expectations.

"Swish!"

The solid cross shield broke through the air and smashed it hard towards Luo Zhen.

Yes.

Shield.

Hezcliff did not use his weapon, but instead attacked Luo Zhen with a shield, which surprised Luo Zhen.

(I actually used a shield to launch an attack...!?)

This is impossible.

This is not the real world, and all items that can be used to attack have strict regulations. In the game, it means that it has something like "attack judgment". As long as it is not something that is judged to be able to attack, it will definitely not be used for attack.

Of course, the purpose of shields is defense, and their use in this world is only defense. They have no attack judgment and cannot be used to cause damage to their opponents.

Now, Hizcliff actually attacked directly with a shield, and it seemed that the system allowed it. How could Luo Zhen not be surprised?

In a hurry, Luo Zhen could only set up the national protection sword in his hand and blocked him.

"clang!"

Accompanied by the sound of a bell ringing, a powerful impact was transmitted to Luo Zhen through the weapon, causing Luo Zhen's body to shake and he involuntarily took a step back.

This step was immediately captured by Hitzcliff.

"Zheng!"

The effect light of the sword technique began to light up on the cross sword in Hitzcliff's hand.

The weapon Hitzcliff hidden behind the shield brought up a beautiful white track and raised it high towards Luo Zhen.

Seeing this, Luo Zhen immediately stopped his pace.

Although he was caught off guard, the sword skills of the one-handed sword were very familiar to Luo Zhen. As long as he saw the preparation movement, Luo Zhen could know what sword skills the opponent planned to use, and thus judge the opponent's next attack trajectory.

The problem is only...

(Is that really the one-handed sword technique I am familiar with?)

Recalling the shield attack just now, Luo Zhen did not choose to block, nor did he choose to use his sword skills to bounce off Hizcliff's attack. Instead, he stepped on the ground and retreated violently, he held the National Guardian Sword in front of him.

The next moment...

"choke!"

As the clear sword chants, Hizcliff's cross sword slashed like thunder.

The speed and trajectory are not in line with any sword technique of the one-handed sword that Luo Zhen knew.

No, it's not just a one-handed sword, but none of this sword-like skills are available in all sword weapons.

Luo Zhen has long memorized all the sword skills of all known weapons, and even Klein's (Taidao) skills and the hidden special skills of the sword skills he used, so he cannot admit his mistake.

In other words, what appeared in front of Luo Zhen was an unprecedented sword skill.

"Clang!"

The unknown sword technique fell on the national protection sword held in Luo Zhen's hand, and a large number of sparks rubbed out on the sword.

If Luo Zhen did not retreat and still stood there, even if he raised the National Protection Sword to block, he would still be hit by the unknown sword technique, which would lead to a significant decrease in the durability of the weapon. He would also stagnate in the state of exerting force and be hit by Hitzcliff's shield again.

But when Luo Zhen retreated, the tip of the Cross Sword rubbed against the sword body of the National Guardian Sword, which aroused a lot of sparks, and also burst out with great force, which instead pushed Luo Zhen away.

Luo Zhen took this opportunity to retreat faster and distance himself from Hitzcliff.

"Wow?" Hitzcliff raised his brow, as if he was admiring, and looking at him differently, saying, "I didn't expect to avoid it. I thought I had never seen my sword skills. Even if you could only lose from the offense and defense just now."

Hearing this, Luo Zhen did not answer, but stared at Hitzcliff.

Shield attacks that should not exist.

Unknown sword skills that should not exist.

All of this is telling Luo Zhen that what Hezcliff uses is...

“Special skills…”
