Level 1, Cleared

To other players, the terrifying elite monsters were nothing more than ordinary mobs to the cheating Rikka and Eriri, as well as the combat-experienced Anshera. With the three girls clearing the way, they quickly gathered before the stone door.

At this moment before the stone door, Anshera showed no intention of hesitating and stepped right up to push it open.

Unlike Eriri and the others, Anshera did not have a hidden class, but even so, she did not care at all.

Or rather, she did not care much about whether she could gain power in the game; instead, she enjoyed the game itself more.

Even if she was a little envious of Rikka's stats, she did not want Chen Changsheng to give her cheats.

Only personally obtaining the quest for a hidden class within the game was what she wanted.

However, even so, Anshera's combat power was currently the strongest among the girls present.

After all, she was different from Sirin. Ever since Sirin became the Herrscher of the Void, she had only fought one-sided battles, mostly crushing others. Later, she was schemed against and killed, and then awakened in Kiana's body for ten years. Due to a lack of energy, she had only briefly come out a few times, and she was abused by others every time.

From beginning to end, she had not experienced many battles, so how could she have any experience?

On the contrary, Anshera, despite being constantly hunted in the Campione world, had combat experience that was not weak in the slightest.

In the Campione world, there were many humans and gods who could be called powerful purely based on martial prowess. These individuals were known as powerhouses with Divine Domain-level martial force.

Although Anshera was not as good as these humans or gods, her own martial prowess was not much weaker.

Therefore, even if Rikka's stats were several times higher than hers, she was completely no match for her.

This was also the reason why she was so confident.

"Eh, eh! Are you just going to push it open directly?"

Eriri did not know Anshera. Seeing her wanting to directly push open the boss room door, she could not help but exclaim.

The next moment, everyone found themselves sucked into the door. An invisible wall appeared behind them, and opposite them was a giant kobold wearing armor and sitting on a throne.

BOSS—Kobold Lord!

"Is something wrong?"

The expression on Anshera's small face was extremely calm as she turned her head to look at Eriri.

She likewise did not know Eriri, only assuming that Eriri was an ordinary player who knew Rikka.

Seeing this, Rikka finally remembered and quickly said to Anshera, "Big sister Anshera, Eriri is the same kind as me."

She said this while waving her hands frantically, not daring to mention the chat group out of consideration for the others present.

But Anshera quickly reacted and nodded.

"So you are Master's friend. What is the matter?"

"Master?!"

Hearing Anshera say such a word with a calm face, all the girls fell into astonishment.

Hayasaka Ai, who was standing beside Shinomiya Kaguya, silently sized up Anshera's petite body and secretly labeled the Master in Anshera's mouth as a pervert.

Anshera paid no attention to the gazes of the others, but silently looked at the Kobold Lord slowly standing up from the throne opposite them.

"The boss is coming."

After she finished speaking, she tightly gripped a spear that formed an absolute contrast to her petite figure and charged towards the Kobold Lord without hesitation.

The others were stunned upon seeing this, but in the end, Rikka, Sanae, and Shinka, who trusted Anshera the most, were the first to follow.

Kaguya and the other girls looked at Eriri.

As Eriri changed her class to a magician, she gradually became the backbone of their team. Even Sirin, although she did not show it on the surface, had quietly considered herself a member of the team and acknowledged Eriri during their more than a week of getting along together.

Even though the mission she was born with was to destroy all of humanity.

But at this moment, facing Eriri and the other girls who had always taken great care of her, it was difficult for her to muster up even a little malice.

Even though they were just humans...

"Let's go help too!"

Eriri looked at the four girls who were already fighting the Kobold Lord, then looked at her companions and spoke with utmost seriousness.

After a week of tempering, although she knew that even if she died in the game, she would not actually die, and she also had Chen Changsheng's help.

But she had already been helped by Chen Changsheng too much. If she still could not achieve anything like this, she really would not have the face to meet Chen Changsheng again.

Therefore, during this period, she had been constantly urging herself on.

By now, she had matured quite a bit.

Hearing this, the five girls, even Sirin, did not say much.

For Eriri, this game was just to not let Chen Changsheng down, but for them, it was a matter of their lives.

Even though everything in the game had proven that the God of Games who called herself Ai-chan might really be a deity, her true attitude towards the players was still unknown.

At this moment, they were just pitiful people trapped in the game, not knowing when they would be able to return home.

If they wanted to go home, they had to clear the game.

Even if the authenticity of this matter could not be verified, they could only do it because they had no other way.

As for expecting others to clear the game?

They were not the type to place their hopes on others; at the very least, they had to try it themselves.

Furthermore, if what the God of Games said was true, then while conquering the game, trying to find ways to increase their synchronization rate was undoubtedly the most important thing. After all, this was an opportunity that could very well change their destinies.

And as for the method to increase the synchronization rate, even if no one told them, everyone tacitly agreed that defeating bosses was definitely one of them.

Seeing her companions nodding in agreement, Eriri smiled and pulled out her staff. The head of the staff pointed straight at the Kobold Lord, who was being easily contained by Anshera and besieged by Rikka and the other two girls, its health bar visibly decreasing. Her voice was full of high spirits.

"Everyone! Let's go! We can't let Rikka and the others look down on us!"

After speaking, a pure white magic orb condensed in front of her staff and shot straight towards the Kobold Lord.

The rest of the people also pulled out their respective weapons and began to attack.

They had also cooperated with each other for over a week, developing a basic tacit understanding, and their respective combat styles complemented each other.

Asuna and Chika both chose swords as their weapons; Asuna had a rapier, while Chika chose a two-handed greatsword.

Kaguya chose the bow and arrow she was most familiar with, and Hayasaka Ai got a large shield specifically to protect her.

As for Sirin, after familiarizing herself with the game's controls, she discarded her spear and changed her weapon to a lance, showing unparalleled talent in using it and catching up with the other teammates in a short time.

Although there were only ten girls in the boss room at this time, under the attacks of the main forces Anshera, Rikka, and Eriri, the Kobold Lord still died at their hands without any power to fight back.

At the same time, all players simultaneously received a game announcement.
