Keep attacking girls and try not to be killed by them

Before the first second of the battle had passed, the shadow clone standing in the front had already avoided the three consecutive slashes of the "Nameless Swordsman" and rushed straight into the monster team.

According to Jiang Ran's experience in battling the "Nameless Swordsman," the "Nameless Swordsman" would never shift their focus until they had killed their target. The shadow clones blended into the enemy ranks to cause trouble for them.

Taking advantage of this opportunity, Jiang Ran and another shadow clone, armed with the "Bone Hammer Shortbow", surrounded them on both sides, while Adela used the effect of the "Black Jade Ring" to temporarily hide (only effective against enemies other than the "Nameless Swordsman").

Up to this point, the battle had only lasted three seconds.

At this moment, the shadow clone targeted by the "Nameless Swordsman" was using other monsters as cover to continue dodging and escaping. Jiang Ran and another shadow clone had just landed, and finally there was Adela, who had already hidden in the designated location.

Then, the first important key point in Jiang Ran’s plan: the moment of chaos, came.

·

Almost at the same time, the skeleton generals in the room who had already released "Battle Shield Protection" jumped high and then smashed "Thunder Strike" to the ground.

At the same time, the Skeleton Ice and Fire Mages released the "Ice Cage" towards Jiang Ran and the others. The ice thorns generated from the ground would immediately freeze the target trapped in it in place.

In addition, the skeleton archery masters have also shot various types of arrows, including tracking arrows and refracting arrows, making this already chaotic room even more dangerous.

As this dazzling moment of chaos arrived, one of the two shadow clones was knocked to the ground by the shock wave, and the other had his feet frozen by the ice cage, and then was shot through the head by the pursuing arrow. Only Jiang Ran used the "Shadow Escape Step" to escape to a safe corner in one breath, and then shot five "Warhammer Arrows" in a row towards the direction of the "Unknown Swordsman".

Unfortunately, none of the five arrows triggered the attack effect, which made Jiang Ran secretly curse himself for being too ungrateful.

"Adela! Give me the bow and arrow!"

"it is good!"

The place where Jiang Ran dodged was not chosen randomly, but was planned in advance.

Adela, who had been hiding here since early morning, immediately presented a new set of bows and arrows as instructed, and then evacuated to the next safe place.

Jiang Ran's cooldown period ended at this time, and he summoned a shadow clone to charge forward, while he also shot all five new arrows he had obtained.

This time, an arrow finally triggered the special effect, but unfortunately it failed to affect the "Nameless Swordsman".

However, even with such bad luck, the progress of the battle was still within the plan that Jiang Ran had deduced in advance.

——Jiang Ran’s second experience in combating the “Nameless Swordsman”: This guy will prioritize attacking the closest enemy.

While the "Unknown Swordsman" was rushing towards the bait, Jiang Ran went around to the side of the enemy's main force. After stealing the Skeleton General's "Thunder Strike", he immediately gave this gift to the Skeleton Archery Masters who were about to stand up.

For Jiang Ran, he must not allow these "humanoid self-propelled arrow machine guns" to move freely, otherwise they would not be able to hold on for even ten seconds.

·

After Jiang Ran's long-term training, the shadow clone can hold off the "Nameless Swordsman" for five seconds.

For the two shadow copies combined, that's ten seconds.

In these ten seconds, Jiang Ran must completely deal with the six skeleton archery masters in the room.

Facing these fourth-order, level 140 skeleton monsters, Jiang Ran really had no way of killing them all in ten seconds without the "Yan Mo Knight Sword".

But it doesn't matter, he still has a roundabout way to save the country, which is to cut off all the "bone shortbows" of the skeleton archery masters within ten seconds.

8.128 - Hanging on a thread

Compared with other monsters, humanoid monsters like skeleton monsters have a unique weakness, which is their reliance on weapons and equipment.

When a skeleton archer has no arrows, it can only use the bow as a melee weapon, and when it doesn't even have a bow, it may not even be as good as an infantryman.

Based on this judgment, Jiang Ran attacked the bows and arrows of the skeleton archery masters, which was much easier than killing them.

·

Perhaps because they had never encountered such a "dirty trick" before, the skeleton archery masters had no way to deal with Jiang Ran's despicable attack, which allowed him to destroy all the bows and arrows within ten seconds.

At this point, the combat capabilities of the six skeleton archery masters were basically invalidated, and Jiang Ran's combat plan successfully completed the first milestone goal.

However, the following battle did not become easier, because after the shadow clone was killed by the "Nameless Swordsman", Jiang Ran would have to face this "numbers and skills" monster by himself.

·

Before the comparison, Jiang Ran thought that he could at least beat the "Nameless Swordsman" in terms of wisdom-related panel attributes, but after the actual comparison, he realized that he was defeated miserably.

[img=700,700]https://rss.sfacg.com/web/novel/images/UploadPic/2023/03/01ea0cfe-bf2d-4cf6-ba52-37e1d196df4c.jpg[/img]

However, even with such a huge gap between him and the enemy leader, Jiang Ran has persisted until now and will continue to do so.

He told himself that among these panel attributes, there was neither "experience" nor "combat IQ". In addition, the abilities of his super-dimensional divine eyes were not counted in these panel attributes at all.

How much "dodge" should the "red light warning ability" be converted into?

How much "dodge" and "hit" should the deceleration effect of "Hash Power Boost·Overclocking" be converted into?

In addition, skills such as 'Shadow Escape Step', 'Double Shadow Escape Step' and others are not reflected in the comparison of these panel attributes.

Therefore, "just" losing some numbers is not enough to determine the final outcome of this battle!

(Come on, let's start the second phase of the battle now!)

·

·

In the room of the class leader, in the gloomy environment surrounded by stone walls, Jiang Ran stood in a corner of the room, facing a large group of skeleton monsters alone.

However, in his eyes at this moment, most of the skeleton monsters were just background, and only "Former Swordsman of the Skeleton King, Nameless" was the real enemy.

As a red warning light shone straight towards him, the moves that Jiang Ran had seen countless times with his shadow clone were finally about to be used on him.

(Hashrate boost and overclocking!)

Even after the flow of time was slowed down, the three-second countdown of the red light warning still seemed so thrilling - because Jiang Ran knew that from the third second to the last 0.6 seconds, the "Nameless Swordsman" seemed to be standing still.

This guy's attack is like a bullet fired from a gun, only lasting a moment!

Therefore, the real time window for Jiang Ran to dodge is only 0.4 seconds between the last one second and 0.6 seconds.

If he dodged too early, the "Nameless Swordsman" would change the direction of his attack, making his dodge in vain;

If he dodges too late, the slash from the "Nameless Swordsman" will arrive before he can dodge;

To dodge the attack of the "Nameless Swordsman" is like using a stopwatch with only three seconds. Jiang Ran must make the stopwatch stop exactly between 0.6 seconds and 1 second.

(2.5 seconds...)

(2 seconds...)

(1.5 seconds...)

(1 second!)

Jiang Ran took his own reaction time into account, and then chose the right moment to dodge sideways.

Then, he saw the figure of the "Nameless Swordsman" blur for a moment, and then a sharp impact cut through the place where he had just stood.

Without time to congratulate himself for dodging the slash from the "Nameless Swordsman", Jiang Ran immediately jumped back a step, narrowly avoiding the slash from the "Nameless Swordsman". Then came the third slash, the fourth slash...

The red light warnings that kept appearing all had independent three-second countdowns. Jiang Ran had to avoid the upcoming attacks one by one in the order in which the red light warnings appeared.

Furthermore, he couldn't dodge early because all of these incoming attacks would move as he moved.

In addition, Jiang Ran also has to consider the next dodge after each dodge, leaving himself room to continue moving... All of this added up, making his brain almost overloaded!

For a moment, the attacks of the "Nameless Swordsman" were as fast as wind and lightning, and Jiang Ran dodged like flying swallows and swimming dragons. The fierce attack and defense between the two of them left the other monsters far behind.

(The shadow behind!)

With great difficulty, Jiang Ran finally managed to hold on until the skill's cooldown ended, and then immediately summoned a shadow clone to slow down the actions of the "Nameless Swordsman".

Although the "Nameless Swordsman" will not change his target because of this, the density of his attacks has dropped significantly after his actions were blocked, which gives Jiang Ran room to perform other "actions."

(Shadow Stealing!)

Since the start of the war, Jiang Ran finally had the opportunity to steal the skills of the "Nameless Swordsman" for the first time, and the skill he stole was... "Swift Bone Step".

Thanks to the effects of "computing power enhancement and overclocking", Jiang Ran instantly understood how to use "Swift Bone Step".

The effect of this skill is to consume 500 points of stamina, allowing the user to increase the agility attribute by 1% within 100 second, and the cooldown time is only 10 seconds.

Now Jiang Ran finally understood how the 'Nameless Swordsman' had managed to cross such a long distance and rush to him in an instant. After this guy's agility attribute doubled, his speed value was nearly 8000 points. He had achieved an effect close to instant movement by relying on his outrageous acceleration.

Then, Jiang Ran also identified the true identity of the "invisible weapon" of the "Nameless Swordsman": this sword was made purely of magic power, about one meter and two meters long, and was named "Soul Blade Sword·Soul Slash (Unique)".

The Soul Blade Tachi: Soul Slash was not considered long among tachi, but under the lightning-fast swing of the Nameless Swordsman, the attack range was magnified countless times.

But if that were all, it wouldn't be much different from an ordinary katana.

The power of Soul Blade: Soul Slash lies primarily in its accompanying effects and skills.

[Note: Here is the identification information chart of "Soul Blade Tachi: Soul Slash", which has over 600 words~]

Whether it's the ability to freely reveal and hide, or the undefended stamina-slashing attack, all of these make the "Nameless Swordsman"'s fierce slashing even more powerful.

The skill that best suits the "Nameless Swordsman" is "Soul Flash", which allows the "Nameless Swordsman", who consumes "endurance" instead of "magic" as a skill, to have stronger combat endurance.

(Oh, what a shame, it's actually soul-bound equipment... Otherwise, I really want to snatch it and keep it for myself.)

Jiang Ran sighed as he continued to observe the movements of the "Nameless Swordsman". As the opponent used the "Swift Bone Step" again, he also used the same skill.

As other monsters gradually surround us, this boss battle will enter the next stage.

8.129 - The Fury of the Nameless Swordsman

In this boss battle, the speed of "Nameless Swordsman" is unparalleled, and the next one is Jiang Ran.

After Jiang Ran, the third fastest were the Skeleton Berserkers, but there was already a big gap between them and Jiang Ran, not to mention the Skeleton Ice and Fire Mages who seemed to be taking a walk, and the slow-moving Skeleton Generals.

As for the Skeleton Archery Masters, whose speed was originally similar to that of the Skeleton Berserkers, after their weapons were destroyed by Jiang Ran, they have been in a state of "standing there stupidly", and each of them seems to be thinking about the meaning of their "skeleton life".

Therefore, when Jiang Ran was being hunted by the "Nameless Swordsman", these skeleton monsters that were supposed to assist the class leader in killing the target seemed to have "disconnected" and were left far behind, without any sense of existence at all.

However, the space in the boss's room was limited after all, so after the battle started for a while, the skeleton monsters finally formed an encirclement line.

They used Skeleton Berserkers as the vanguard, Skeleton Ice and Fire Mages and Skeleton Generals as the rearguard, and steadily blocked Jiang Ran's escape route.

Jiang Ran looked at the arrival of the large group of monsters without any ripples in his heart, because such a development was also in his plan.

The rest depends on the combat intelligence of these skeleton monsters.

·

(The shadow behind!)

When he was once again approached by the "Nameless Swordsman", Jiang Ran immediately summoned a new shadow clone to help him save his life. At the same time, he observed from the corner of his eye that the skeleton berserkers had already charged towards him, and the skeleton ice and fire mages had all begun chanting.

These successive developments all indicate the same thing, that is, another "transition moment" that Jiang Ran expected is about to come.

After a few seconds, the violent skeleton warriors were less than ten meters away from Jiang Ran, and the "Nameless Swordsman" had forced Jiang Ran into a situation where he had no way to retreat.

Then at this moment, the Skeleton Ice and Fire Mages finished chanting their overwhelming ice magic, and began to jointly block the area at an extremely fast speed, dividing a smaller room in the room of the class leader!

Seeing that the blockade was about to be completed, Jiang Ran suddenly turned around and rushed straight towards the "Unknown Swordsman", because this was the moment he had been waiting for!

(Shadow Escape Step!)

(Double Shadow Escape Step!)

Before the "Nameless Swordsman" could react, Jiang Ran used two teleportation skills in succession and escaped from the encirclement of the skeleton monsters in one breath!

Then, as he expected, what came into his eyes was the scene where the Skeleton Ice and Fire Mages trapped all their monsters in the frozen realm.

·

While the monsters were trapped in their own cocoons, Jiang Ran quickly took a breath and rested.

He knew in his heart that the current situation would not last long, and the monsters would soon break through the ice wall and rush out.

The greatest value of this situation to him now is that it allows him to take a break from the relentless pursuit, regroup, and then continue fighting.

Because of this, Jiang Ran chose to stay at a position not far from the ice wall. Then, when the giant scorching fireball burned through the ice wall and flew out, he immediately stole the Skeleton Ice and Fire Mage's skill through the gap: "Magma Fire Bomb".

It should be noted here that neither the previous Skeleton Fire Mage nor the current Skeleton Ice and Fire Mage are magicians in the true sense. Therefore, they will not fight by recording the magic in the magic book like Emilia and others.

From a mechanical point of view, the "magic" used by the Skeleton Ice and Fire Mages is actually their skills, so Jiang Ran was able to successfully steal with the "Shadow Stealing Technique".

(Then I’ll return it to you intact…)

(Malta Fire Bomb!)

Before the monsters rushed out from the other side of the ice wall, Jiang Ran immediately fired a "magma fire bomb" into it. Then he heard the explosion of the impact and saw thick flames and magma emerging from the gap in the ice wall.
