Chapter 45: A Glorious Strike

  "You all deserve to die!"

  Looking at Ronnie and Chris's tightly clasped hands, that sweet smile, happy expression. Hallef was consumed by jealousy, a pair of evil eyes turned bright red.

  "Hmph, if you want to move them, you'll have to get past me first!"

  Chu Rui let out a cold hum and completely abandoned the evasive intention from earlier, directly charging at Haref with his dagger.

  "Looking for death!"

  Watching Chu Rui's movements, Hallef fiercely swung his sword over.

  "Are you still going to treat me like that?"

  Having obtained two super BUFFs, Chu Rui was not afraid of Hallef at all. With his speed increased, he could already keep up with him. Although Hallef was very strong, after all, he was just a system monster, and his intelligence and consciousness were no match for Chu Rui's. At the same speed, it would be easy to toy with him to death.

  Chu Rui was like a madman, ferociously fighting the Knight-class BOSS head-on in a life-or-death duel. Ye Zifeng and others were shocked to the point of their eyeballs dropping out.

  Previously, Chu Rui had a fierce duel with the BOSS, and they already suspected that he might be a thief. Now, he's actually fighting against such a powerful Silver BOSS, which has further solidified their previous suspicions.

  This guy must be a warrior or knight dressed as a thief, this guy is definitely pretending to be cool, definitely!

  Ye Zi Feng and others were extremely depressed, their hearts filled with self-doubt and tears streaming down their faces. Damn it, a thief originally had such abnormal speed and explosive power, if they also had the defense of a knight and the bravery of a warrior, wouldn't that be unbearable? Facing off against such an overpowered silver BOSS one-on-one, was this even a thief? How could us close-range knights and warriors possibly cope?

  Actually, Chu Rui didn't want to pretend to be a boss. If possible, he would have liked to completely annihilate Harlev. However, this damn time was not waiting for anyone. The BUFF effect only lasted three minutes, and if he didn't hurry up, once it disappeared, he would be at a disadvantage again. Anyway, with so much added life value, enhanced life recovery, and all attributes increased by 10%, what's there to fear? He could kill with one hit as an assassin. Although entering the game couldn't be done like this, he also showed off his skills, every attack hitting the vital spot, at most it was his signature move - throat slash. Now that he had such an opportunity, he wanted to get excited and be a fearless warrior.

  "How hateful, how hateful, how hateful..."

  Looking at Chu Rui, who was like a little sheep just now, suddenly turned into a fierce wolf, Hallef shouted frantically. But his eyes kept looking towards Ronnie and Chris, I don't know if that "despicable" was referring to Chu Rui or them.

  Perhaps stimulated by Ronnie and Chris, Hallef became extremely stubborn and terrifying. Being suppressed by Chu Rui, he had no intention of defending himself at all, choosing to go crazy with Chu Rui in a real life-or-death battle. Completely ignoring Chu Rui's attacks, he only attacked directly, which made Chu Rui somewhat flustered. However, this was also in line with Chu Rui's intentions. If Hallef had meant to defend and dodge, it would have been very difficult for him to defeat him within three minutes. Now, the child not only didn't defend himself but also didn't even make basic protective moves. Those weak points were exposed in front of Chu Rui, making him a lamb to be slaughtered at will.

  "Aurora Strike!"

  Chu Rui gritted his teeth and withstood Halef's attack, then after a brief accumulation of power, he unleashed the additional skill on the Azure Dagger. Not only did it deal massive damage to Halef, but also poisoned him, causing him to continuously lose health.

  With a dodge, Chu Rui evaded Halef's consecutive attacks and flashed to his side. He stretched out his arm, and with a swift stab, the dagger pierced deep into Halef's brainstem. Halef was enraged, swinging his massive sword in a horizontal sweep that seemed to shake the earth. However, Chu Rui was one step ahead, bending his body to avoid the powerful blow. Then, with a swift motion, he rose and swept his dagger across Halef's chest, extending it to his right shoulder. With a turn of his body, he brought the dagger back in a clean and agile slash that ended at Halef's throat.

  Ye Zi Feng and others, as well as Ronnie and Chris, were all staring at the two people fighting with their eyes wide open and their faces filled with incredulity. Chu Rui was like a dancer wielding a sword in the dark, but his dance was a dance of death, every move bringing a threat of death. Under that incomparably beautiful and elegant posture, hidden was endless killing intent. In comparison to Chu Rui, Hallef was like a clown, being toyed with by Chu Rui until he looked pitiful. He seemed to have already lost his mind, like a raging bull that had fallen into the death trap set up by Chu Rui.

  Gradually, under Chu Rui's fierce attack, Hallef's HP was less than 500.

  "I bet everything on this, take it, a glorious blow!"

  Halev went berserk, his body leaping up, his target locked tightly onto Chu Rui, making it impossible for him to escape this lock. The large sword shone with a dark, dense light amidst his furious roar.

  "A blow of honor? Hallef, you have fallen. This represents the glory of a knight's blow, and you are not worthy to use it." Roni said in a cold voice beside him.

  "Shut up! After I'm done with this kid, it'll be your turn. Later, I'll make that mouth of yours more rotten than a rag." Hallef waited for a pair of scarlet eyes, bellowing incessantly.

  "Grass! Has it already eaten me up? Let's see who dies first!" Chu Rui gritted his teeth, holding the dagger horizontally in front of him. Since he couldn't dodge, he could only harden himself to resist. Now that he had over a thousand health points, he should be able to withstand this attack.

  "Hmm..."

  A heavy and powerful sword cut through Chu Rui's guard dagger, pressing down the raised hand, and heavily chopped onto Chu Rui's shoulder. The sudden force on his right shoulder made Chu Rui's body sink, his right knee bent, almost touching the ground.

  A huge yellow damage number appeared on Chu Rui's head, and his full blood bar was suddenly emptied by more than half. This son of a bitch's attack actually scored a critical hit, almost killing Chu Rui instantly. If not for the two powerful BUFFs he had, Chu Rui would have been sent back to the newbie village for free by now.

  Damn it!

  Being injured without making a sound is not Chu Rui's style, he is the kind of person who always fights back with his teeth. Having suffered a huge injury, not only did it not make him timid, but instead it further provoked his ferocity. He grabbed Halef's hand, rendering him immobile. At the same time, the dagger was wildly swinging, continuously attacking, causing Halef's already scarce life to rapidly dwindle!
