Summoning the holy sword

Dark clouds shrouded the sky, and the dim, lightless ground was littered with wreckage. Circling up the ladder, bloodstained corpses, armor, weapons, everything was so chaotic, desolate, with the smell of death and danger.

Rod sucked in a breath, but he wasn't able to feel the cold and blood in the air, it was just a game after all. Thinking about it, Rod shook his head with a bitter smile, then he turned around and looked at his comrades who were sitting on the ground not far below him, who were resting quietly at the moment, recovering their strength and repairing their weapons. On the surface it did not look any different than usual, but Rod knew very well that this battle, not as easy as before.

"How many people have stayed behind."

He asked in a deep voice.

Hearing this question, the people looked at each other, and then a bony mage stood up.

"Ninety-six, chief, this copy of the Void Dragon is more dangerous than we thought, many brothers have hung up on the previous traps, the only fortunate thing is that our professions are still intact now."

"That's good."

Hearing this, Rod nodded and did not say anything more, while the others went down in the same silence.

If it were an ordinary team, I'm afraid that at this time, they would have already lost their guts and started chaos, after all, what they were about to face was the most powerful, most terrifying, never conquered by anyone elite BOSS in the game, the Dragon of the Void, the final BOSS of the third chapter of the online game Dragon Soul Continent, and also the most terrifying existence until now. Faced with such a battle, ordinary guilds must organize at least ten groups before they dare to come and try to challenge, and now, Rod's men only ninety-six people, even a complete group can not get together, but even so, these people's eyes, but there is not the slightest panic and disorientation, there is only calm, confident and trust.

The person they trust so much is standing at the top of the stairs not far in front of them, looking up at the sky, a cold scar from the brow on a face as firm as a stubborn stone, giving people a shocking feeling. The armor that shines with magical light covers that mighty and majestic body, as if a wall that will never fall down.

Of course, they do not trust the man in front of them because of this appearance of majesty, no matter how tough it is, it is after all only the game's character design, the scar on the brow is nothing that can be used to tell the memories of the tragic past, but simply an accessory when the game sets the facial appearance.

The real deterrent is the uncountable halo and achievements behind this man.

The first professional player to reach the top.

The first player to use the most difficult profession of summoning swordsmen to the top.

Since the opening of the first chapter of the Dragon Soul Continent, "Darkfall", the leader of the guild, relying on his own ability and familiarity with all professions to a terrifying degree, swept through the entire three seasons of information, taking all the bosses first kill leader. Every time a copy video will be reproduced by countless players, as a teaching canon like existence, the dragon soul continent in the first player guild's president --- Rod.

He had personally eliminated "Darkfall", opened the "Dynamic Era", conquered the "Dynamic Era" again, and came to the "Void Trial". Void of Judgment". Now, he will once again use his own hands to end the "Void Judgment", but a new era, but no longer by himself to start.

How many years has it been?

Rod withdrew his gaze from the sea of clouds shining with thunder serpents in the distance, and asked himself inwardly.

In these seven years, in order to force himself to forget the painful past, he had set himself unattainable goals time and time again, and then achieved them again and again, and only the great excitement and glory that came at that time would dilute the pain that remained deep inside himself.

But that's as far as it goes.

A month ago, Rod's parents traveled abroad and died in a plane crash caused by a hurricane, Rod can no longer remember when he received the phone call and heard the news what kind of mood, but now, he has made a decision. Leave this game and go back to real life, not only for the sake of his parents, Rod is also very clear that he has come to the time when he must make a change.

"Will, president?"

A timid voice rang out, interrupting Rod's memories, he looked up and saw a female mage in the crowd timidly raising her hand, her eyes shining as she gazed at herself.

"You, you're really leaving?"

"Yes."

Rod nodded, and then gathered up the complex emotions inside himself, he shook his head and gazed again at these companions who followed him, these were the memories and gains he had made in the seven years, the friends he had gained during the seven years of struggle together. But now, he will finally leave them, although in the game, even with only a gesture, can be familiar with each other want to do the degree. But when the game helmet is removed and you return to reality, I'm afraid you'll never be able to recognize each other again.

"I sent out my resume yesterday, so I hope I can find a company that will accept me."

"If I receive your resume, President, I will directly arrange for you to become a department manager, do not worry!"

A knight waved the big sword in his hand, and his words drove the originally somewhat dull atmosphere, and the crowd laughed.

"Thank you for your kindness, but unfortunately I did not write this in my resume, to know that our guild has many enemies, in case it is received by other guilds, then my life will not be easy."

Rod also smiled and opened his mouth to answer, then he coughed and turned serious.

"I think we all know how we have come all these years."

Hearing this, the crowd that was laughing just now closed their mouths and quietly began to listen to him.

"We also know that on the forum, on the Internet, there are many people accusing us, they say we have destroyed the balance of the game, monopolized all the first kill of the BOSS, and made the competition meaningless ......... frankly speaking, these I think are not wrong, but ......"

Speaking of which, Rod clenched his fist and swung hard.

"But what does that have to do with us! We are the strongest guild, we are the strongest team! We have the strength! Then we are going to do it and grab it! The other guilds are not strong enough, and losing is their own problem, if they are strong enough, then they can break our monopoly, our monopoly on the first kill of the BOSS is not by rules, not by status, not by touting to the game company, but we get it by our own strength! We never give up, we never admit defeat, and we never slack off, that's why we have what we have now and everything, we deserve it, it's that simple."

Rod paused, and that's when he continued.

"I love this guild and I miss these seven years with everyone, but there's no such thing as a banquet, and it's time for me to go find a life of my own. However, I will never forget everyone and the guild, this place holds my most painful memories and my happiest ones, and I will always remember it here."

Said Rod, pointing to his head.

"Many people say this guild can't play without me, I think there are quite a few guilds that know this now, and they're probably planning to wait for me to leave and sharpen their knives waiting to drive the guild down and break our record, but that's too much to underestimate us. Dragon Soul is not a game where I am the only one, I have no way to build a guild by myself, I have no way to organize a team by myself, much less take out a BOSS to get the first kill. So I hope that after I'm gone, you guys will be able to show those guys who are playing devil's advocate a good look at why this guild is so strong and the real strength of why we, Starlight, can occupy the number one ranking of guilds in the Dragon Soul Continent!"

"Yes!"

"No problem, President!"

"Leave it to us, we'll give that group of idiots a perfect answer by that time!"

"Very well."

Hearing the crowd's reply, Rod nodded, and then he turned to the right side of the crowd.

"Old Liu."

Hearing Rod's greeting, the tall and thin mage walked out of the crowd and came to his side. Rod gazed at the mage in front of him and was silent for a moment, then reached out and took off the badge on his chest and placed it in his hand.

[System announcement: guild president position transferred, head of the position transferred]

"The next era is your time."

Rhodes let go of his hand, his voice was very calm and did not change in the slightest.

"So, this battle is left to you to command."

"Yes, no problem, Rod."

The mage nodded, but soon, he reopened his mouth and said.

"Then, as the guild leader, as the leader, I order you to lead the team."

"Old Liu?"

Hearing this answer, Rod couldn't help but frown in surprise. At that moment, the tall and thin mage facing him was smiling gently, and then patted Rod's shoulder.

"This era was started by you, there is a beginning and an end, Rod, that is the way to be a man."

"........."

Hearing these words, Rod was silent, he raised his head and looked at his companions not far in front of him, at this moment they were ready and were waiting for their orders as always. Rod gripped his sword tightly, then turned around and faced the high platform not far in front of him, where the thunder raged and roared with bright flashes of brilliance.

Then, Rod raised his longsword and pointed it forward, he had the most ordinary beginning, so let's have the most ordinary end.

"Open the monster!!!"

The Dragon of the Void was indeed incredibly strong.

Luo De had fought against almost all the ranked BOSSes in the Dragon Soul Continent, even including other Dragon Soul existences in the setting, but none of them were more tricky than the Void Dragon in front of him, its attack pattern was more complex and almost irregular, its damage was several times higher than that of ordinary BOSSes, needless to say its speed, reaction, and even in defense, it had a superb level.

This is indeed a difficult opponent to conquer.

The battle has reached its final stage, and he is the only survivor, but even so, Rod's blood is all that is left, and the blinding red color reminds him that his life force has reached its limit.

The Dragon of the Void is no different.

Looking at the opponent's blood-red, full of anger dragon eyes, Rhodes suddenly had a very strange feeling, as if he could understand the feelings of the Dragon of the Void - as the game's most powerful, never been conquered BOSS, now actually fell so close to the ground, it must not feel good.

Then, let me accompany you.

Thinking of this, Rod raised his left hand.

"!!!"

Rod felt his body jolt, a powerful force rushed head-on, the flamingo immediately after a cry of grief and soul, but before it disappeared the strong explosion also let the Dragon of the Void originally swung down the claws did not do all the work, but was hard shaken away.

A time, the empty door is wide open.

Rod clenched his teeth, the bright red in front of his eyes became more and more dazzling, suggesting that the damage he had suffered had reached a critical point, but now it was no longer in his consideration, this was the last chance, either to succeed or to destroy the group. He raised the longsword in his hand and stabbed it straight forward, but the Void Dragon had also slowed down, it roared and then swung its claws downward with force again, while at the same time, Rod also threw his longsword in his hand.

Thunderstrike, activated.

The longsword turned into a dazzling light that shot straight at the dragon's chest, and Rhodes watched it intently, watching the lightning-infused lightning burst through the gap in the dragon's claws, then easily ripped through the dragon's scales.

"----!!!"

Deafening dragon roar flat out, then, the huge dragon claws heavily slapped on the body of Rod.

The bright red in front of his eyes almost enveloped the entire world, and Rod could no longer see the scene in front of him clearly, but the system prompt that emerged from the corner was as clear as ever.

[Congratulations to Starlight Guild for capturing the first kill of the Void Dragon, an eternal evil has been destroyed]

[Character has taken excessive damage and is about to die]

It was finally over.

Gazing at this line of system prompts, Rod revealed a smile of relief.

And at that moment, suddenly a bright pillar of light descended from the sky and enveloped the high platform.

The pure white light in that instant illuminated the original gloomy sky, dispelling the original lingering cloud.

At that moment, the others who were resurrecting from the graveyard and rushing towards the high stage suddenly stopped in their tracks, and the world channel, which had been boiling with excitement because the Starlight Guild had once again achieved the first kill record, also suddenly fell silent.

There was only one message left on it, and that was a system announcement.

[System Announcement: Player Rod has gone offline]

A legend that had ruled for three whole game eras had thus come to an end.
