-340- This is all you've got

"Sa... Sa..."

In the forest, the sound of footsteps was unusually clear.

Rozen held his weapon and slowly walked towards the guild of orange-named players ahead. His expression remained lazy, but the atmosphere around him had changed significantly, radiating a tense feeling.

This sensation made the members of the "Titan's Hand" guild, all belonging to the orange name, involuntarily take a step back.

"What... What's going on with this guy...!?"

"Wasn't he just a casual player...!?"

"This is unbelievable...!"

One by one, the orange-named players shouted in anger and fear.

Not only they, even Rosalia bit her lip, finally realizing a fact.

That was, this player might not be a mere crafting player from "Crimson Wing" but something more. Looking at this momentum, this aura, it was something that only experts who had experienced countless battles would possess.

Rosalia came to this realization.

"Not just a casual player... but a top player from the clearing group...?"

Rosalia found her voice becoming somewhat dry.

By this time, Rosalia finally realized.

Indeed, here, they couldn't escape or send messages for help, but the same conditions applied to them too.

"Titan's Hand" had already lost any escape route after being led here. If an accident really happened, they would be trapped and unable to escape.

As a result, it wasn't this side that had set the ambush, but the other side that had ambushed them.

And what's more, it was achieved by a single individual.

"Tsk...!"

Rosalia clicked her tongue in frustration and then shouted loudly.

"Why are you all just standing here? Attack him! With so many of us, are we afraid of a single one-handed swordsman without even a shield equipped!?"

Rosalia's shout made all the orange-named players on the scene react.

"Oh...! Ohhhh...!"

A group of orange-named players immediately roared in succession, raising their weapons and rushing towards Rozen's direction.

"Rozen-nii!"

From the back, Silica saw this scene and exclaimed.

"Chu!"

Even Pina couldn't help but make a sound.

On the other hand, Rozen looked at the orange-named players charging toward him, and the laziness on his face began to transform into a calm demeanor.

"Clang!"

"Clang!"

At the same time, the effects of sword skills lit up on the weapons in the hands of the orange-named players.

The next moment, countless sword skill effects with various colors were unleashed, covering Rozen's direction like a storm of blade lights and sword shadows.

One by one, the members of the orange-named guild unleashed their most powerful sword skills without showing any mercy, all aimed at Rozen's body.

Facing this torrential rain of blade lights and sword shadows, Rozen didn't raise his weapon.

However, Rozen's body moved.

"Swoosh!"

With a sharp sound of breaking air, a sweeping strike grazed Rozen's body and landed in empty space.

"Hiss!"

Amidst the piercing sound of wind, a slash passed by Rozen's shoulder, missing its target.

Facing the countless sword skills coming at him, Rozen chose not to retreat or block. Instead, he lightly moved his body, swaying like a fluttering leaf. With minimal movement, he managed to evade all the attacks from dozens of orange-named players.

Remarkably, not a single sword skill from ten orange-named players managed to hit Rozen. He effortlessly dodged all of them.

Rozen's footsteps remained unwavering, and he continued to stand in his original position.

"What...!?"

Rosalia was taken aback.

"This..."

Silica was also left dumbfounded.

"This... this guy...!?"

"Is... Is he kidding...!?"

"He actually dodged them all...!?"

One after another, the orange-named players were completely stunned.

"Attack... Attack! Attack quickly!"

Rosalia's voice grew increasingly agitated as she shouted repeatedly.

The orange-named players could only grit their teeth and charge at Rozen again in spite of their apprehension.

However, regardless of their attacks, Rozen continued to sway his body lightly, effortlessly evading every strike that came his way.

"Well, at best, this is all you've got."

He even gave this cruel evaluation.

Immediately after...

"Splitch!"

At an unknown moment, Rozen suddenly swung his sword, the blade grazing the throat of the nearest player.

"Gah...!"

The player let out a strange cry, and their HP bar rapidly decreased.

"Splitch!" "Splitch!" "Splitch!"

With the sounds of consecutive slashing, one by one, orange-named players were pierced by the sudden thrust of the blades, slicing through various parts of their bodies and frequently reducing their HP.

By the time everyone regained their senses, their collective HP bars had just entered the red zone, leaving them with only 1 point of HP.

Yes.

1 point.

Everyone had just 1 point of HP left.

Rozen, using his "Mind's Eye" skill and his own calculations, had masterfully reduced the HP of every orange-named player present to the brink of death.

"This can't be!"

Finally, Rosalia's expression changed.

It turned pale.

And if even Rosalia was reacting this way, the orange-named players who had unconsciously lost nearly all their HP and were left with only 1 point were even more shocked. They all turned pale, frantically taking out recovery potions and crystals from their pouches.

This feeling of being one step away from death would undoubtedly terrify anyone.

But of course, Rozen had to agree to it as well.

"Do you think I would give you the chance to recover?"

The moment this statement fell, ten small knives suddenly flew out, each one stabbing into a different orange-named player's chest.

These players stiffened and fell to the ground one after another.

Watching this scene, Rosalia almost instantly realized.

"Paralysis poison...!?"

This term wasn't entirely accurate.

"It should be Level 5 Paralysis Poison." Rozen withdrew his hand that had thrown the knives and smiled at Rosalia. "Even top-tier tank players would be paralyzed for at least three minutes, while mid-tier players would be paralyzed for at least ten minutes. Shouldn't that be enough time to do anything?"

Saying this, Rozen conjured another small knife in his hand.

"Don't worry, this is just a very ordinary knife that you can buy at the Level 1 item shop. It doesn't have any performance enhancements. Even if it hits a player above level 10, it won't deal a single point of damage. However, the coating on it is all Level 5 Paralysis Poison."

Rozen casually played with the knife, explaining.

"But since I've completely mastered the 'Blade Throwing' skill, I can't guarantee this completely. Want to try it?"

Rozen aimed the small knife at Rosalia, a half-smile forming on his face.

"You... You..."

Rosalia retreated repeatedly and finally couldn't help but shout.

"Who the hell are you!?"

Rozen didn't answer her question.

Because...

"Swoosh!"

A faint sound of breaking air came from behind Rozen.

Its speed was incredibly fast.
