"Whoosh!"
As if there was a gust of wind blowing, Rozen's figure passed through the labyrinth's path with great speed, making the hem of his robe fluttering in the air.
"If only I had this kind of speed in real life."
Rozen sighed as he continued to speed up.
In terms of movement speed alone, Rozen's speed was almost as fast as a speed-type Player who put all his points into Agility.
This was not because Rozen changed the way he added points, but because of the skill bonuses.
When Rozen reached level 6, he already got his third Skill Slot, and when he reached level 12, he got his fourth Skill Slot, which was two more Skill Slots than the previous one.
After careful consideration, Rozen used one of the two Skill Slots and set a new skill, Gallop.
As the name suggested, it was a skill used to increase movement speed.
This skill was quite popular during the closed beta. Not only Agility-type players, but tank-type players could also see this skill.
Rozen also set up this skill in the past.
Therefore, when he reached level 6, Rozen almost immediately thought of it and set it in the third Skill Slot. Now, his proficiency in this skill has increased to a certain level.
Therefore, Rozan Can could run at such a speed that made him extremely envious.
However, it was impossible for such an arrogant way to not attract monsters.
"Gaa!"
Along with such a cry, a monster seemed to have been startled and drilled out from behind a rock.
It was a small monster with a dog's head and a human body, but it was wearing armor-like armor and holding a rough axe in its hand.
The monster was level 6, and its official name was Ruin Kobold Raider.
"Gaa!"
The Ruin Kobold Raider screamed at Rozen, its whole body jumped, and the axe in its hand was also raised high.
At this moment, an incredible phenomenon happened.
"Shhnnnnn!"
A burst of light shone from the Ruin Kobold Raider's raised axe.
There was no doubt that it was a Sword Skill.
It was a sword skill from a monster.
This was the biggest characteristic of the monsters in SAO.
In SAO, Half-Human, Demi-Human, Humanoid, and even Humanoid monsters are not to be underestimated.
Because as long as it was a monster that resembled a human, it would have one thing in common — it could use weapons and even armor.
If he could use armor, it meant that his defense would increase.
As for the weapon, it naturally meant that the monster could use sword skills.
Sword Skills were known as sure-kill skills. Once used, the power, speed, and accuracy would far surpass ordinary attacks. Therefore, even if it was only the most basic Sword Skill, as long as one was unprepared and received a critical hit, a large amount of HP would be taken away. If one was unlucky, one might even be killed on the spot. It was very dangerous.
Therefore, even if the opponent was just a Kobold soldier in a normal game, it would still be a strong threat to the players in this game.
Even though Rozen was confident that his level was higher than his opponents and his equipment was of high quality, he still didn't dare to be hit by these monsters' Sword Skills.
However …
"It's stupid to use Sword Skills right from the start."
Rozen didn't slow down his speed at all. While staring at the Kobold Assaulter that was falling from above, he suddenly pulled out Anneal Sword + 8 from his waist.
"Goo!"
The Rainbow Butterfly that was flying behind Rozen seemed to have received some kind of instruction, and as soon as Rozen drew his sword, it suddenly increased its speed and flew toward the Kobold Raider.
Of course, Rainbow Butterfly didn't want to fight the Kobold Assaulter head-on.
With Rainbow Butterfly's low HP, it would be instantly killed if it encountered the monster's Sword Skill.
However, while the Rainbow Butterfly's HP was extremely low, it also had a unique characteristic.
That was, its flying speed was fast enough.
In such a situation, the Rainbow Butterfly left a long trail of light behind it as it flew above the Kobold Raiders who had not yet landed on the ground, and sprinkled a cloud of powder at the Kobold Raiders who had already used their Sword Skill.
That was not Paralysis Powder's skill.
It was useless to use Paralysis Powder on an opponent that had already used Sword Skill.
Because once Sword Skill was used, the system would support it until it was successfully used. Even if the Paralysis Powder was applied, the Kobold Assaulter would only fall after the Sword Skill ended.
However, that was also the reason why Rozen said the Kobold Assaulter was stupid.
After all, if the timing wasn't right when he launched his sword skill, he would become a target that couldn't be dodged. If his attack missed, he would enter a state of paralysis and suffer a series of fierce attacks from his opponent, unable to fight back.
Therefore, even if the monster could use Sword Skill, the Players who knew how to use their brains were still superior to the Kobold Assaulter at the same level. As for the Players who didn't know how to use their brains, there was no need to mention them.
Rainbow Butterfly was using a special skill that was unlocked when it reached level 10, Blinding Powder.
Obviously, it was a skill that could blind the target.
"Gaaaah!"
The Kobold Assaulter's vision went black, and it panicked in the air. Only the Sword Skill was still activated, and it swung its axe down like a bolt of lightning.
However, it didn't hit Rozen, but the ground.
"Clang!"
Amidst the crisp sound, the hand-axe that was flashing with light slammed into the ground, creating a burst of sparks.
At this time, Rozen had already leaned into the Kobold Assaulter's arms and closed his eyes.
The world changed under Rozen's perception.
"Here it is!"
The Anneal Sword + 8 in Rozen's hand turned into a flash of light.
The Sword Skill named Oblique Slash pierced the cynocephali's throat above the cynocephali's armor.
That was undoubtedly a weakness.
Therefore, the level difference, the performance of the weapon, the power of the swordsmanship, and the damage caused by the Critical Strike caused the Level 6 Kobold's HP to drop to the bottom due to its high defense equipment.
"Bang!"
The frozen Kobold Assaulter exploded into pieces.
In front of Rozen, a window that displayed Exp, Cor, and dropped materials also appeared.
At this moment …
"Woo!"
The Rainbow Butterfly that flew back suddenly froze and let out a hurried cry.
Rozen was startled at first, but then he realized what was going on.
However, Rozen couldn't move because of the Sword Skill's stun.
The black shadow rushed toward Rozen's back.
"Shhnnnnn!"
The light of the Sword Skill's effect appeared on a long sword with a thin blade.
It was a weapon called rapier.
The rapier user, who was covered in a cloak, suddenly rushed to Rozen's back and used his Sword Skill without hesitation.
"Shhnnnn!"
