Chapter 830 Players were generally not inclined to use the Dual Sword Technique. There were reasons for it.
The first reason was it was generally impossible for players to equip two swords at the same time.
The only way that it could be possible was the However, it had a condition set in place, where one could only replicate the sword that they had equipped, or use swords that were specifically made for it.
However, because of that condition, the sword’s attack would decrease, only displaying around 40% of its original power.
The second reason was it was actually very difficult for players to use the Dual Sword Technique.
Players were unlikely to handle swords in their daily lives and had only ever held swords in this virtual reality game. To put it simply, they were already having a hard time holding a single sword. How could they hold two swords when they were already having a hard time swinging one?
Of course, there were a few exceptions. Those who were either talented and had good gaming sense, or those that had a good feel for the sword. There were also those among the ones that practiced kendo or martial arts for a long time, allowing them to have a good grasp of wielding dual swords. However, even these people had turned a blind-eye to the Dual Sword Technique.
In the end, it all came down to the first reason. These reasons did not mean that there were no players that did not hone their Two-Sword Mastery or utilize the Dual Sword Technique. However, due to the nature of their class, even if these people had excellent gaming sense, they would still have less attack when using the Dual Sword Technique.
It was no wonder the commentators were all in shock.
It was not just the commentators that were in shock. The same was true for the viewers.
Then, a fairly famous high swordsman ranker appeared among the viewers.
That was what everyone thought. However, Minhyuk did not care a single bit about what they thought. After all, what did the viewers and commentators think about him while he was being attacked by Viel earlier?
They had definitely thought that he did not deserve to hold the strongest and greatest sword in his hand. Not only that, they also thought that Viel was so strong that he could not even show off the true power of the Sword of Aeon. But now, he was showing off the power of the greatest sword.
”Sword of Carnage.”
The Sword of Carnage was originally a skill that would increase his movement speed by ten times and allow him to send out thirty eight attacks in a seconds. Each strike had an additional 2,000% attack and the power to ignore all of the enemy’s defenses.
Minhyuk swiftly passed by Viel, both of the swords in his hands cutting his body.
“…”
Viel had already tasted the brunt of the Sword of Carnage’s attacks. This time, it was very different from before.
Viel’s eyes suddenly grew wide when the attack successfully landed on his body.
It was completely different. Minhyuk had eaten buffed dishes in Hell before coming here just so he could deal with Viel. On top of that, Viel was receiving the damage from the +3 reinforced . As of this moment, Sword of Aeon had 3,089 attack power.
Blood spurted out of Viel’s body as the consecutive attacks ripped and tore apart his flesh and bones. The god that all of the players feared was being violated and abused by the greatest sword.
Viel’s entire body was filled with wounds. He was so furious that the veins in his eyes burst and made him cry tears of blood. This was a disgrace.
“Bastaaaaaaaaard!!!”
Viel could be considered a true monster in every sense. The attack from before only shaved off around 40% of his HP. He was still very much alive and well.
He dashed forward madly and used his dazzling and majestic swordsmanship to try and overwhelm Minhyuk. Even his sword’s attacking speed was beyond anyone’s expectations.
However, Viel’s sword was easily blocked by the Continent Destroyer Sword, while the Sword of Aeon moved and slashed his chest.
“Hiiiiik…!”
Viel gritted his teeth as he continuously swung his sword. He looked like an eagle, who glided smoothly in the sky before swooping down to attack its prey. However, Minhyuk was able to block all of Viel’s attacks. In fact, he even began to push the envoy back.
As long as Dual Sword Technique was still in effect, Minhyuk’s movement speed would be 70% faster than normal. As it turned out, knowing that the Dual Sword Technique was a very difficult skill for players to use, the production team tried to compensate for this shortcoming by increasing one’s speed by 70% during the skill’s duration.
However, there was another important point.
It was only at this moment that the viewers and commentators, who did not realize that Minhyuk was using the Dual Sword Technique, remembered something.
Then, one of the viewers piped in.
It was just like the commentators had said. Minhyuk had held a sword since he was a child and had always shown how much of a genius he was with it. But that was not all. Minhyuk actually did several dozens of different exercises to go with his insane diet. Among those exercises was In other words, having the Sword of Aeon in his possession was just like giving him wings to fly.
The symbol of was branded on the blades of both the swords in Minhyuk’s hands. With every swing of his sword, dozens of lightning strikes would fall down and engulf Viel. However, despite all that, Minhyuk was feeling anxious.
Alas, Viel’s HP volume and defense was beyond anyone’s imagination. Just when he thought that it would soon be over after he had beaten Viel for three minutes, a dreaded notification rang out.
A warm light fell from the sky and helped Viel’s body recover.
“…Ah.”
Minhyuk staggered back. In just an instant, everything that he did went down the drain.
Minhyuk quickly estimated everything. If he gave it his all and used all of his skills and power, he would be able to kill Viel even though he was being protected by the Jade Emperor.
He quickly looked around. Sun Wukong, Aaron, Hanwoo and Zhu Bajie were all still standing tall. However, he could tell that they would all collapse soon.
Even Alexander looked very exhausted as he fought fiercely against Ferro, unable to break away from Ferro’s woldo despite being an Eight Pillars’ Class. Unlike Alexander, Ferro still looked very energetic.
The bloody Viel cackled, his smile grotesque as he said, “Kghhk. Keuhahahahahahaha! Keuhahahahahahahahha! That power of yours will eventually disappear. By that time, you won’t be able to kill me. Did you believe that you could win? Did you believe that you could save everyone? Did you believe that you are stronger than me? That you are stronger than us? That you are stronger than the Sky?”
Minhyuk’s grip on his two swords tightened. It was just like what Viel said. No matter how hard he fought and struggled as long as the Jade Emperor was here, he would not be able to kill Viel. Besides, the Jade Emperor was also going to descend here. If by any chance, he was able to kill Viel, once the Jade Emperor appeared, everyone here would still die.
At that moment, a very familiar voice rang from the sky above them. At the same time, the Puzzling Seasoning Jar flew out of Minhyuk’s inventory on its own.
Minhyuk looked at the Puzzling Seasoning Jar that suddenly started to crack with a puzzled look on his face.
In the end, the seasoning jar completely broke down.
Minhyuk could not believe the notifications that rang in his ears. But as the sky turned dark, another shocking set of notifications rang.
Then, the voice that rang before spoke again.
“…”
To be honest? Minhyuk was truly afraid. He was afraid of Viel, who was being protected by the Jade Emperor. He thought that he would not be able to kill him, even if he tried his best.
The voice sounded warm and gentle. It felt like it was embracing Minhyuk gently.
Along with that, shocking notifications rang loudly in the ears of all of the people in the entire world.
Obren spoke warmly.
A god that was stronger, more superior and greater than the Jade Emperor, had given strength to Minhyuk.
