"choke!"
The moment the crisp sword chant sounded, Luo Zhen was finally stunned.
No, I should say it was amazing.
When he fell into a state of freeze in order to deal with the kobold assault soldiers and was attacked by the rapier user's sword skills from behind, Luo Zhen recognized the origin of the sword skills used by the opponent.
That is the initial basic skill of the rapier (Linear Attack).
As long as the "Rail sword" skill is set in the skill grid and the rapier is used as a weapon, then this sword skill will be the first sword skill that the rapier user will learn.
And this sword skill is also quite simple. Just like its name, it is a simple sword skill in which the sword is placed in the center of the body, rotated, and thrust straight forward.
Although the damage of such a sword skill is not high, the speed is quite astonishing.
It is precisely because of this that the rapier user was able to complete the sword skill before Luo Zhen recovered from his stiffness and successfully hit Luo Zhen.
If it were another sword skill, then Luo Zhen, who only used the basic early-stage one-handed sword skill "Oblique Slash", would definitely be frozen for a short time before the opponent's sword skill was released, and he would react immediately.
However, at this moment, the "Linear Attack" used by the rapier user had a qualitative change.
Seeing the flash of the thin sword coming towards him, Luo Zhen could only think of one thing.
meteor.
Yes.
meteor.
That is the sword skill like a shooting star.
Tachibana's rapier wielder used this sword skill with completely different movements, speed, and completion than before, causing the rapier to fly at an astonishing speed.
That speed was twice as fast as before.
In this world, Luo Zhen has never seen such a fast sword skill, let alone such a beautiful sword skill.
Obviously, this is definitely not a sword skill that can be accomplished solely with the assistance of the system.
The opponent must have added his own movement commands to increase the speed of his sword skills.
Therefore, the blade of the rapier was like a ray of light, tracing a beautiful trajectory, illuminating the dim maze that lacked light, while flashing towards Luo Zhen's chest.
Compared with just now, there is simply a difference between heaven and earth.
This made Luo Zhen's heart flash with a flash of inspiration, and at the same time, his body stagnated even more.
Fight back
That is impossible.
If it was before the opponent activated the sword skill, it could still be done, but now that the sword skill has been activated and the speed is fast enough to surprise him, Luo Zhen can no longer counterattack, let alone dodge and defend.
However, Luo Zhen was not afraid at all. He just watched quietly as the opponent's rapier flew towards him like a meteor.
Then…
"laugh…!"
Amidst the subtle sound of breaking through the air, a thin sword flashing with pink sword skill light passed by.
It rubbed Luo Zhen's body and landed in an empty space less than five centimeters away from his ribs.
That's right.
This stunning blow failed.
However, it was not Luo Zhen who avoided it, but the opponent deliberately missed it.
"you…"
The rapier wielder maintained his stabbing posture as if he was surprised and confused, raised his head slightly, and looked at Luo Zhen.
Only then did Luo Zhen finally see the whole picture of the other party clearly.
The other party has a slender body and a petite figure. He is equipped with a dark red leather long jacket and a lightweight copper breastplate. The lower body is made of fitted leather trousers and knee-length boots, but there are tears all over the body. There were traces of tatters and embarrassment, and it looked like it had gone through a long journey and long-term outdoor activities, giving it a feeling of being dusty.
The opponent's appearance cannot be seen clearly because he is also equipped with a hooded cloak that reaches his waist. The hood of the cloak also covers his head, making the opponent's face invisible.
Such a player held a rapier and stood opposite Luo Zhen.
However, the orange cursor on the opponent's head was particularly conspicuous, and the yellow HP gauge on the side also entered Luo Zhen's eyes, making Luo Zhen's eyes flicker slightly.
At this time, the other party spoke again.
"You...why don't you avoid...?"
The rapier user seemed to be confused and asked.
And what came out from under the cape was a very pleasant and pleasant young girl's voice.
Coupled with the stunning blow from the meteor-like sword just now, Luo Zhen was sure.
This person is the very beautiful female player Argo mentioned to herself.
only…
"I just attacked others, and now I'm asking them why they didn't avoid me. Isn't it a little weird?"
Luo Zhen looked directly at the other party and said this with some fun.
But these words elicited a reaction from the other party as if he was biting his lip.
"...Is that what you said too?"
The rapier user spoke in a low voice.
If someone else were to say such words, they would be confused, right
But Luo Zhen knew what the other party wanted to say.
"I didn't attack you. Is that what you want to say?"
Luo Zhen said such words calmly, causing the rapier to raise his brows slightly under his cloak.
Luo Zhen laughed instead.
"It seems that you are very surprised, but rather than being surprised, you should be more confused as to why things turned out like this, right?"
That's what Luo Zhen said.
"Anyway, come with me first, or you will be caught up, right?"
Luo Zhen finished speaking eloquently, then put away his weapon and left to the side.
The way he turned his back to the rapier user without hesitation seemed to tell others that Luo Zhen was not worried at all about being attacked again.
"..."
The rapier fell silent.
"Goooo!"
The rainbow butterfly tilted its head, as if it didn't know what was going on, but it still flapped its wings and followed Luo Zhen.
"That is…"
It was only then that the rapier user noticed the rainbow butterfly. His eyes showed a look of surprise, and he hesitated for a while before following him.
The two of them left together in a flash, restoring silence to the scene.
Not long after, a group of players appeared here.
"Did she let her escape...!?"
"hateful!"
"Don't try to escape!"
"Keep chasing! It must be in front!"
"Chase!"
The players shouted angrily and chased forward.
These players didn't notice at all.
In an inconspicuous corner, a pair of eyes were watching, filled with madness and murderous intent.
… …
Maze area, nineteenth floor.
On this floor, in an unknown place, there is a cave-like space.
The entrance to the space is blocked by a stone, leaving only a gap that is invisible to passers-by and can only allow one person to pass through. Even if a player leans on this stone, he still cannot find this place without looking carefully. I don't know. There is also a hidden space here.
"This is the hiding place of a mini-boss. The opponent is set up as an escaping kobold general, so if you are not lucky, you will never find this place. Currently, I am the only one who knows about it, as I have killed the boss."
Luo Zhen came here with the rainbow butterfly, sat on a rock, turned his head and looked at the rapier user who followed him.
"alright."
Luo Zhen smiled.
"Let's talk."
