Tolbana, Adventurer's Square.
It looked like an ancient Roman Colosseum structure.
A large number of players gathered here.
"Thank you all for responding to the call and gathering here."
"I am Diavel, my profession, from a personal mindset, is a Knight."
A blue-haired one-handed swordsman, who looked very approachable, said.
"Hahaha..."
"This game doesn't even have a profession system."
"Buddy, are you trying to be funny?"
Everyone burst into laughter, and the atmosphere on the field instantly became lively.
"Yesterday, our team found the boss room on the top floor of that tower."
Diavel changed the subject and revealed astonishing information.
"As expected."
Tenya's expression was calm.
It was exactly the same as the plot in his memory. He just didn't know if that "protagonist" was still around.
"We must defeat the boss and reach the second floor."
"Thus telling all players that this death game has a day when it can be cleared."
Diavel spoke with righteous fervor, causing everyone present to applaud in response.
Next was free team formation.
Tenya, Silica, Asuna, and Mito tacitly formed a team of four.
Everyone arrived at the boss room with great momentum.
"I only have one thing to say, we must win!"
"Let's go!"
Pushing open the large door, a dim hall appeared before their eyes, with a gigantic beast sitting high up.
As the players entered the room, the large door automatically closed.
From this moment on, no teleportation method would allow them to leave the room.
"Roar!"
The giant beast leaped up and landed in front of the players.
Kobold Lord Ilfang (Level 25)!
"Roar!"
Along with the appearance of the boss, there were also more than a dozen Level 15 small monsters, everyone felt quite a bit of pressure.
"Attack start!"
Diavel, gave the command.
"Charge!"
The players swarmed forward.
Both sides engaged in a fierce battle.
"Watch your HP! Team A come down to recover!"
"Team B, switch!"
"Team C, focus on defense!"
Diavel's command was orderly.
"Let's go too."
Tenya and the others attacked together, cooperating tacitly and easily killing the small monsters.
One black-clothed, masked one-handed swordsman player charged forward with exceptional bravery.
With his own strength, he continuously broke through the small monsters' ranks and went straight for the boss.
With a series of slashes and thrusts, he actually made the boss unable to retaliate for a while.
"Wow!"
"Who is that, actually more brave than the captain?"
"Could it be the legendary Black Swordsman: Kirito?"
"So strong!"
Kirito (Tomoya) enjoyed the admiration of the crowd, thinking to himself, 'As expected of a God-level ID, the skill points and equipment are impeccable!'
Under Kirito's lead in dealing damage, everyone gradually dealt with the remaining small monsters and began to jointly surround and attack the remaining boss.
"Roar!"
The boss let out an angry roar, and with a flick of its arm, it discarded the axe and shield in its hands, replacing them with a giant katana pulled from its waist.
"Heh! It's exactly the same as described in the intelligence database."
As an undercover player cooperating with Akihiko, Kirito naturally knew more about the BOSS in the game.
But he concealed it, deliberately pretending to be low on stamina and retreating.
"Leave the rest to me!"
Seeing this, Diavel's eyes lit up, and he charged forward with his sword.
The player who lands the final blow on the BOSS can receive additional rare item rewards.
"Damn it, is he trying to steal the boss kill?" Mito reacted immediately.
"Let's retreat." Tenya gave the order to retreat.
"Eh?"
Although the three girls looked confused, they still chose to trust Tenya's judgment.
Just as expected, something unexpected happened...
The BOSS suddenly swung its sword in a horizontal sweep, its speed and strength were so great that it was impossible to defend against.
Slash!
Diavel was instantly cut in half at the waist, his HP dropping to zero!
"Captain!"
Seeing Diavel killed by a single strike, the players immediately became panicked.
Swish!
In the blink of an eye, the boss swung its katana in a large circle, clearing the HP of several more players.
"Silica, be careful!"
The boss suddenly turned its head and charged quickly towards Silica, its speed so great that people couldn't react in time.
Clang!
Clang!
Asuna and Mito both stepped forward to block, barely withstanding the boss's fierce attack, their HP instantly dropping by 50%.
"Roar!"
Just as the boss was about to continue swinging its sword down, a slender long blade steadily parried the boss's attack.
"Get up!"
Tenya used a strengthening skill, temporarily increasing his strength, and with one strike, he sent the huge boss flying back.
"We... we're saved..."
Seeing this, the three girls breathed a sigh of relief, feeling grateful for escaping death.
"Let's recover some HP first."
Tenya used the Divine Healing skill on each of the three girls in front of him, which could restore a large amount of HP.
"Now's the time!"
Kirito seized the opportunity and decisively attacked.
Relying on the powerful attributes of his God-level account, he could go head-to-head with the boss alone without being at a disadvantage at all.
"This guy is so strong!"
The remaining players didn't have much HP left, so no one dared to step forward and fight again.
They could only watch as Kirito performed alone.
"Only 5% left, let's finish it in one go!"
A cold light flared in Kirito's eyes. He continued to unleash a frenzy of attacks on the boss.
4%...
3%...
2%...
1%...
Just as Kirito was preparing to deliver the final fatal blow.
Suddenly, a flash of light streaked past from behind.
Flash Speed.
Slash!
Tenya, holding Zangetsu, pierced the boss's throat, completing the final kill.
EXP +400, Level increased to 22!
Obtained Rare Equipment: Nameless Dagger!
