Chapter 2
The corridor outside the door was still the same, without any changes.
Su Xingyuan opened the video version of the death record and saw that he was attacked by the knight when he was one-third of the way through the corridor.
At that time, not only the knight closest to him took action, but all the knights turned their heads in his direction and stared at him.
He was sure that even if he killed one, five more would rush after him.
He will be attacked from both sides, with no way to retreat.
Try running at full speed? He still doesn't know what the effect of agility 8 is.
The black-haired boy lowered his center of gravity slightly, his eyes fixed on the door in front of him without any hesitation, and then he pushed off the ground suddenly and rushed out like an arrow.
There are eight meters, seven meters, five meters -
The door is just around the corner!
“Clang!!”
Suddenly, a heavy sword fell in front of him and was deeply embedded in the wall in front of him, blocking his way, and the sharp side was facing him!
Su Xingyuan's pupils shrank slightly, and he wanted to stop, but his speed was too fast. It was the first time he felt such a speed, and he could not effectively control himself to stop suddenly.
“Squeak——”
The sound of flesh being cut could be heard.
Su Xingyuan returned to the original place again.
[You actively crashed into the sword in the hand of [Ordinary Guard Knight], you are dead]
Su Xingyuan: “…”
Very good, in just one minute, a second death record was added.
The physics engine of this game...seems a bit too good.
The feeling brought by inertia almost made him unable to tell whether he was in the game or in reality.
Moreover, after discovering his intention, the knight who was farther away from him made preparations immediately, so he could draw his sword immediately when he wanted to take action. This was enough to prove that the monsters in this game were much more intelligent than he imagined.
However, if the knight could drain his health with one strike, then in a one-on-six situation, he would have no chance of winning.
Even if the game really wanted the player to rush through with superb fighting skills, it would be impossible for him.
He had to find another way.
Su Xingyuan opened the second death replay and watched it, then reviewed the first replay again.
Then he opened the door.
As before, lower your center of gravity, increase your speed, and rush forward.
The knight's heavy sword also came down at the same time and place.
This time, the black-haired boy curled the corners of his lips slightly.
His body still had inertia, but he did not let inertia control him to rush forward. Instead, he supported himself on the knight's sword-holding hands with his hands, and used inertia to suddenly flip his body into the air!
“Clang!!”
Another heavy sword followed and landed at the same place where he was just now.
If Su Xingyuan hadn't asked him to change his position, he would not have been able to survive for two more seconds even if he had successfully made an emergency stop.
The body is in the air for only a brief moment.
In such a short period of time, Su Xingyuan, who had such physical fitness and performed such actions for the first time, could not observe his surroundings clearly and make judgments no matter how calm he was.
In other words, most people can only act on instinct when faced with such a situation.
But he is a player.
Players always have some player privileges.
The next moment, Su Xingyuan flipped over the knight who was blocking him with a sword and landed in front, while at the same time he turned sideways and lowered his head without hesitation!
"brush!!"
A fierce wind blew past his head, and one of the last two knights guarding the door swung his sword!
And he seemed to have known the angle of the knight's sword and dodged by just brushing the edge of the attack!
[Congratulations on achieving [Perfect Dodge]! 】
[Perfect Dodge] Successfully judged! 】
[Within ten seconds, your agility will increase by 20%! 】
Perhaps this game was too real, Su Xingyuan even felt the knight's momentary surprise as if by illusion.
He raised his eyes slightly, looked into the dark interior of the knight's helmet, and gave a cheerful smile that really had no provocative meaning.
——In such a crowded and cramped space, the knight’s strength cannot be fully exerted.
Precisely because of their higher intelligence, they will subconsciously choose to chop diagonally and obliquely rather than directly chop head-on, just like when a person moves in a narrow space, they will subconsciously converge and change their movements.
This way, their attack patterns are limited and become more predictable.
At the same time, he observed that due to the knight's heavy body, it takes about 2 seconds to start attacking from a stationary state; the connection between two attacks also takes 1.5 seconds.
The physics engine in the game certainly applies to monsters, which means that the knight who smashes the tip of his sword into the wall won't be able to pull it out immediately, and the same is true for the knight who attacks right after him.
If they block there together, they will temporarily block the attacks of the two knights behind him.
Su Xingyuan looked forward.
The last knight was waiting for him calmly, holding a heavy sword. He had already completed the preparations and was just waiting to swing the sword.
And once their swords were swung down, they were so fast that he couldn't dodge them.
Su Xingyuan did not move forward.
Instead, he gripped the machete tightly, turned around and stabbed it into the helmet of the knight behind him without hesitation!
[You attacked the weakness of the [Ordinary Guard Knight]! You scored a [Critical Hit]! 】
[[Ordinary Guard Knight] HP-15]
A blood bar finally appeared on its head.
「35/50」
kindness? Not once?
It doesn't matter, this is not a turn-based game.
As long as you dare to show your health bar, this matter will be much simpler.
Su Xingyuan's smile became more innocent.
He used nearly 10 of his agility on his hand speed and stabbed three times in an instant!

[[Ordinary Guard Knight] HP-15]

[Your current level is lv.3]
Su Xingyuan quickly pressed the pause button.
I almost forgot about the pause function just now. There is no way, this game is so realistic that it makes people subconsciously ignore the "pause" function which is not very noticeable in single-player games.
Su Xingyuan's body is still unable to move, but his consciousness can open the main interface of the game and check his status.
[Nickname: Su Xingyuan]
[Level: lv.3]
[Physical Strength: 7 (+1); Intelligence: 9; Strength: 6 (+1); Agility: 7 (+1); Defense: 5]
Su Xingyuan looked at his attribute board and added 5 each to defense, strength and agility, leaving 5 attribute points for reserve.
After the property panel is refreshed:
[Physical Strength: 7 (+1); Intelligence: 9; Strength: 11 (+1); Agility: 12 (+1); Defense: 10]
There was a small red dot on the book pattern on the main interface. When Xingyuan opened it, he found that it was a monster encyclopedia.
[Monster name: Ordinary Guard Knight]
[One of the most common and common monsters in the dungeon. They are covered in heavy armor and will attack any life form that is not of the same species that they see. [+]
Su Xingyuan clicked the [+] and found that he could make supplements.
Su Xingyuan casually typed in a description: [High strength, high defense, low agility, with a certain intelligence, startup time of 2s, and the weakness is inside the helmet. It is recommended to equip small-sized, high-attack-speed weapons or weapons with armor-piercing properties. 】
[System is judging...]
[Congratulations on making a very valuable supplement, and you will receive bonus coins*100]
Huh? Will there be gold coins as rewards?
Su Xingyuan seemed to be thinking about something.
[Ordinary Guard Knight] seems to be loaded into the illustration after he has caused effective damage to the knight, but whether the loading condition is effective damage or killing the enemy still needs to be observed.
Gold coins were also dropped when the knight was defeated. Su Xingyuan took a look and found that there was indeed a mall system, but the conditions were not met now, and there was a lock on the mall icon.
He thought he had to find a merchant, but it would be much more convenient to have his own shop.
Well now...it's time to continue.
Su Xingyuan pressed the pause button again.
Time started flowing again.
…
Su Xingyuan died for the third time and returned to the resurrection point.
“…”
The black-haired boy with turquoise cat eyes scratched his hair helplessly, opened his arms and fell to the ground in a spread-eagle position.
"Sure enough, he died again..."
Even though my status would be refreshed after I died and came back here, this game was just too real, and the feeling of repeated death still took a toll on my spirit.
His data also returned to its original state.
If it were a normal game, you would be able to pass the levels easily after finding the monsters' weaknesses and patterns of action, and then upgrading their levels, but this is a holographic game with non-turn-based combat.
Su Xingyuan even had a feeling that he had traveled into the game. He needed some time to adapt to the sudden increase in his physical fitness, and he also needed to learn some combat skills.
And...his goal wasn't just to open the next door, otherwise he would have succeeded long ago.
What he wanted was to defeat all the guard knights here without getting hurt.
Maybe this level only requires passing through the door, but for Su Xingyuan, leaving a few monsters behind would make him feel very uncomfortable.
Of course it would be best if the places where players pass through are completely left without a trace.
He let out a breath, stood up easily with a somersault, stretched himself, and then held the [ordinary machete] in his hand again.

“Dang!”
The iron helmet fell to the ground with a final clang.
Su Xingyuan, who had completely destroyed the guard knight's helmet, retracted his knife and looked at the cracks on it.
It seems that the equipment in this game has a durability setting. The worse the quality, the faster it will break down.
He looked back.
The six guard knights who were originally insurmountable were now scattered on the ground, their armor in tatters, looking very miserable.
——In order to get familiar with his own body, Su Xingyuan not only used a knife, but also started violent destruction with his fists. After restarting twice, the effect was very significant.
He opened his main interface.
