"Ruby embraces the place of suffering", part of the scene in the labyrinth area of the ninety-ninth floor is like a cold winter, the debuff of the cold air and the slippery ground have affected everyone to varying degrees, and the efficiency of the advancement has also decreased a lot.Obviously, it is a strategy team formed by Gao Yu and the protagonist, but it slowed down because of the weather, which was really unexpected by Gu Wu.He thought that if he cooperated with them, he would be able to get rid of the maze area as quickly as possible, and then find an opportunity to copy the ability solo to defend the boss by himself, but that plan would probably be delayed for a while.As the front row of the team, Gu Wu was sitting on the cold ground resting at the moment, he looked at the white mist that was spitting out, thinking that this cold and icy environment could not change so quickly, and it was estimated that the battle area in front of him also had their existence.Nearby, players who had also started standby were talking."
Those monsters just now are really troublesome......"
"Unlike us, they were born here and have the ability to move freely on the icy ground, and they are relatively much more agile.""
It's just that the guy in the front row is really powerful, blocking almost all the tricky attacks.""
Then His Excellency Kirito will immediately rush over and defeat the enemy, reducing the pressure a lot."
Several adventurers with bold personalities said this, and finally set their eyes on Gu Wu, it was precisely because of Gu Wu's 'double shield flow' that they felt safe and could output without being affected.Gu Wu, who was far behind their gaze, nodded, and then moved his gaze.The next moment, what Gu Wu saw was a twisted passage and an independent field.In a nutshell......
This labyrinthine area is like a broken puzzle, in an unrestored state, where each road is connected by an uncertain connection, and perhaps a dead end will be reached as you walk.Looking down, the ground is frozen rock, surrounded by frozen walls, and the occasional ice-engulfed beast and meandering river can be seen.The monsters that haunt the area vary from skeleton warriors made of frost bones to beast soldiers in platinum armor.Recalling the battle not long ago, Gu Wu thought that if there was no attacker, a defender like him would be in a bitter battle."
Do you really want to strengthen the shield attack?"
Unlike Kirito's main output, Gu Wu, who is exploring the maze at this moment, is the player of the main defense.The reason for this is that the enemies here get the buff provided by the block, and their attacks have the Chill attribute on them.In the face of those attacks, regardless of whether they are defended or not, they are forced to add a layer of sluggish buff that can be accumulated.Unlike toxins that directly paralyze the whole body, this state of being attached to ice can be moved, but the speed of action and the interval between attacks will be partially reduced.Although Gu Wu, who was holding a shield defense, could minimize the impact, he was already not moving fast and was slowed down again, and he would lose his ability to respond to crises and evade them, and become bulky.Thinking of this, Gu Wu stood up, the equipment on his body barely consumed his durability, and at the same time, he didn't feel tired as the front row, so he set off and walked towards the periphery.But then a slender figure ran in front of him.This girl has crystal-like pupils, staring at Gu Wu, she is wearing a battle uniform with a very well-fitting white tone, and she is staring at Gu Wu with her hands on her waist at the moment.She noticed Gu Wu's actions for the first time, which is why she appeared so quickly."
Mr.
Gu Wu, it's time to rest, and you haven't eaten yet, right?""
No, Miss Asuna, I don't have any hunger at the moment, so I'm going to use this free time to take a look outside, and maybe find out what information we missed."
As the main place connecting the boss room, the maze area is not only used to stop the adventurers' progress, but also to provide some important information that is not known to others.Just as information from many side bosses is hidden in NPC conversations, the boss's intel may be somewhere, provided Akihiko Kayaba does so......
In fact, Gu Wu had doubts that Kayaba Jingyan had temporarily modified the data of the ninety-ninth layer.But it is very difficult for a person to modify the data in a short period of time, not to mention that Akihiko Kayaba is also attacking the floor, so there is no need to do that at all, and there is no corresponding time.But no matter what, it is much better to have more hope than one less, which is also the reason for Gu Wu's action with this view."
It's useless to be in a hurry, there must be a strong enemy in the passage ahead, so I think it's better to recharge your energy now.""
It's just a matter of going around again, Miss Asuna don't worry.""
Could it be that Mr.
Gu Wu has forgotten that kind of trap-like trigger monster?
When the player reaches a certain area, they may spawn strong enemies. ”"That's true, but I'll just run away then, and I'm not going to lose to that kind of guy."
Asuna was the leader of the operation, and she naturally didn't want anyone to be in danger.Gu Wu wanted to give her face, but he really didn't have the idea of continuing to rest at present."
Speaking of which, the monsters in the labyrinth area are generally related to the boss, right?
Just like the bosses you dealt with before, the monsters around the room have the same characteristics. ”"That's true, although it is impossible to target the action in advance, but if you judge whether you use a blunt weapon or a sharp weapon, you can allocate combat power in advance."
Blunt weapons are easy to hit armor, sharp weapons are easy to cut flesh, to put it bluntly, like some hunting, there is a problem of 'meat quality'.It's easy to understand this, just like the damage of the head will be a little higher, and if you attack the boss's eyes, you will get unexpected results."
Because of this, if I can introduce new monsters, I can also know the characteristics of the boss, right?
For example, the ...... of a decoy composed of skeletons and heavy armor is indeed feasible, but there is no need to execute it now, everyone is a little uncomfortable with the rhythm of the battle just now, so you need to slow down. ”"I'll be exempt."
Asuna was about to say something, but the black swordsman appeared at this moment."
Then I'll patrol with Gu Wu, after all, this is not a safe zone, it is necessary to go and see again, and at the same time, it can also prevent the people of the Murder Guild.""
Kirito-kun......"
When the couple was talking, Gu Wu had already walked away."
Kirito, do you want to come?""
Here we are."
Kirito smiled and waved his hand at Asuna, and then followed Gu Wu's footsteps.Asuna, who was left behind, looked helpless, she had the identity of 'captain' at the moment, so naturally she couldn't leave the team casually.And Gu Wu naturally didn't hesitate, he walked straight towards the area where he passed.Although it was an area that had been investigated, there were still some locations nearby that had not been explored, and Gu Wu's purpose was to go to those locations to have a look.Kirito, who was following at this moment, also looked around and said to Gu Wu, "This time......
Gu Wu, are you still going to challenge the defending boss alone?
”"Who knows......"
Gu Wu had only one choice, but he still responded in an ambiguous way."
But one thing I'm sure of is that I'll have to face the boss.""
I think it's the same, I'm going to do my best this time.""
This should not be said to me, but to Miss Asuna."
Asuna she ......
He's a strong person, but sometimes I'm too worried, and of course I'm too. ”Because if you have something that you can't lose, you're afraid of losing.What's more, Kirito thought he had made an irreparable mistake in the past, and the pressure that that mistake brought to him was extremely great.But it was also because of Asuna's support that the young man who had planned to be alone in the past stood here.He, like Asuna, is an admirable fellow.Obviously not as old as himself, but unexpectedly strong, sure enough, age or something is just a number.I always feel like I speak like Lolicon......
Gu Wu, who was so joking in his heart, regained his seriousness."
But there's a good chance I'll face the boss alone, even if I fail, I have to do that.""
Do you have to fight for your life alone?""
Yes.""

Gu Wu wants to protect......
What exactly?
”"The most important thing is, of course, to protect yourself, Kirito-kun......
I'm not the brave people you and Asuna are willing to risk for others. ”"Do you mean the ninety-seventh floor......
It's true that we were too reckless. ”Kirito admits his past mistakes, and then he turns his tune."
But isn't Mr.
Gu Wu also like a fool?
Challenging the boss alone is not something that ordinary people do. ”"That's a fool."
It's just not okay not to do it.After all, if he didn't do this, Gu Wu would have no future to speak of."
It's really strange weather, it's summer and autumn before I entered here.""
It's a labyrinth area, after all."
After finishing speaking, Gu Wu looked around, his eyes wandered in this icy and snowy place, and suddenly saw something.Animal?
It's like a squirrel, but with some differences.Gu Wu thought about it for a while, and finally walked over."
What's wrong?""
Kirito-kun, follow me."
As the two of them walked further than they had planned, Kirito saw what looked like a squirrel."
There are animals in this high-level maze area......"
"Is it a hint of some treasure or something?"
Gu Wu ......
You're overthinking. ”Kirito looked at this with some incredulity......
In his opinion, Gu Wu was a well-thought-out warrior with extraordinary powers, but he didn't expect it to be different.The conversation between the two ended here, and they were about to leave.The ground shook!
It's a sudden change!
The next moment, the animals that moved here were gnawed by the sharp teeth of the abyss that broke through the ice, and in an instant, they were crushed to pieces."
Gu Wu!""
I know!
Below!!
”No......
On the ground, to be exact!
Monsters that gnaw squirrel-like animals emerge from the frozen underground!
Pose and look ahead, it is a soldier covered in black and white heavy armor, to say the least, there is a 2.5 meter tall, in the junction of the surface of the armor printed with demon patterns, you can see the chain mail emitting a black luster inside, the enemy is holding a sword in his right hand, and his left hand is like a creature's twisted mouth, which is the body of the giant mouth that devoured the animal just now."'
ntknight', lamenting knight!"
The next moment he saw the other party's name, the huge knight took a step, and because he was more than two meters tall, the distance of the stride was very long, and he came to the front like a flight!"
Kirito-kun!
Kill him!!
”"Understood!"
Gu Wu, who was equipped with a shield, greeted him.Since Gu Wu was in front and charged with a shield in hand, the enemy gave priority to attacking him, the approacher.In the field of vision, I saw the enemy swing that solid right arm, which was a high-speed horizontal mid-range slash!
In this regard, Gu Wu advanced, stepped with his right foot to stabilize his body, and then responded to the impact that came in an instant!
There was a clang, and the steel collided!!
The shield was struck by a blade that was huge for their player, and was immediately attached to a layer of ice slag."
It's my turn——!!!"
Gu Wu blocked the attack and absorbed the debuff, so the young man with the black blade in his hand rushed out at this moment.The pitch-black boy is unusually fast, and the sword of the same color also slashes at the enemy with continuous sword skills!
The knight who swung the sword just now also reacted very quickly, it directly set up the cold blade, and turned its arm in a twisted motion, blocking all attacks!"
Exchange !!"
Gu Wu, who sprinted forward, met Kirito head-on after a vertical slash.Bang knock!!
The blow from top to bottom shattered the ground, and Gu Wu's feet, which had strengthened his own defense, were bent due to the heavy pressure, but in the end he still resisted back!

The knight, who lost his balance in an instant, fell backwards, and Kirito, who seized the opportunity, also used his sword skills to attack!
But the enemy still has an unknown left arm!
Biting Xiang Kirito's left arm was actually a pitch-black beast, and when the blood basin was big after all, Gu Wu jumped!
Click!!
Gu Wu stuffed the shield into the mouth of the beast, and Kirito also took advantage of this to swing the blade!
One hit hits!
Nice slash!
It's just that Kirito also caused the blade to be covered in ice and snow due to the collision of swords just now, and this subtle change has affected his continuous slashing, even if it is delayed by a fraction of a second, the enemy has reacted!
I saw that the knight gave up the left arm of the monster that was stuck by the shield, and directly rotated his body to swing the blade."
That's not going to work!"
Gu Wu's second shield was immediately unfurled!
The crisp sound sounded again, and the enemy's blade track was disrupted, and Kirito waited for the opportunity to mend the sword again!"
Kirito!
Side!
”"From the right!
Gu Wu!
”"See!"
Gu Wu took on the negative effect and gave Kirito a good opportunity to attack.Under the continuous combo attack, the enemy knight severed his left arm with the last sword, and was then knocked flying by the shield, and finally received a flash of the black sword on the way, and the apparent life HP was reduced to zero.As the monster's body dispersed, the temperature around it gradually rose."
Huh?
Is this guy the source?
”"Kirito-kun, this is the so-called crooked hit."
Gu Wu, who put away his weapon, heard the sound of footsteps, it was the sound of Asuna and them rushing over."
Mr.
Gu Wu!
Kirito-kun!
Over here......
What happened?
The cold air is ......
Gone?
”The other players were also surprised."
You two did it?""
It's more to Kirito-kun."
Gu Wu shrugged his shoulders, he didn't have the idea of asking for credit, after all, as a tank, he didn't have to think about how to attack, but only thought about how to block it.This is actually not the result that Gu Wu wants......
While this makes other players expect a lot from themselves, it's not okay.Gu Wu looked at Kirito not far away, next time......
Next time, let's try to learn the second knife flow from him.It's just that Gu Wu's words, he will replace a knife with a shield, attack the boss through the attack of the shield and blade, and complete the task!
