　　Two warriors jumped down from the high platform above in response, creating two deep pits on the ground.

At this time, Jon had already killed another Hercules guarding the door.

“Ding! Mission completed. Kill Molin Hercules. Level fragment +150 obtained. Successfully extracted battle aura type advanced fragment +10 from the target’s body.”

Jon tucked iris into a corner and instructed her to protect herself. Then, he turned around and turned his nose to the group of demons.

“One man and one sword. I’ll just be standing right here, which one of you thinks they’ll be able to break past me?

The Level-11 Elite Warrior was the first to make a move. His body moved violently and charged forward at three times the speed of the other warrior. He swung the giant axe in his hand downward forcefully.

“Elemental Water Shield!”

Jon summoned the elemental water shield to take the opponent’s attack head-on. The giant axe was so powerful that it almost split it apart. However, when the monster had cut halfway through the shield, it used up all its strength and it fell into the shield.

Jon took the opportunity to stick his sword directly through the elemental water shield and aimed it at the chest of the Level-11 Elite Warrior.

“This suit of armor was blessed by the priest. No ordinary weapon can pierce through it!”

The monster did not panic when he saw what Jon was doing. Instead, it mocked him.

“Pssh!”

In the next second, the water-rock elemental sword pierced through its heart!

Fresh blood gushed out from its chest and mouth at the same time. The elite-tier warrior looked at Jon in disbelief. “How is this possible?”

“Who told you that this is an ordinary sword?” Jon answered the monster’s doubts with a smile.

After entering the commander-level, Jon had surpassed just ordinary. His water-rock elemental sword had already been strengthened once before, and he had also obtained an armor penetration skill during his rank up. Under the combined influence of these effects, breaking the divine blessing of an elite-level priest was not a particularly difficult task.

“Ding! Mission completed. Level-11 Elite Molin Warrior killed. Level fragment +400 obtained. Sucessfully extracted battle aura type advanced fragment +30 from the target’s body.”

The moment the system’s notification sounded, another Level-12 Elite Molin warrior charged towards Jon.

“Clang!”

The water-rock elemental sword clashed with the opponent’s greatsword, producing the crisp sound of metal clashing. Jon didn’t quite have as much brute force as his opponent, and he was forced back three steps after being attacked.

“Ah!”

The monster raised its blade and was about to slash again, but Jon hurriedly used Elemental Spirit Rush on it.

Spiritual power rushed into the mind of the elite-tier warrior like a wave. However, just as the spell was about to come into contact with it, Jon was met with a very peculiar effect.

It missed!

The spirit rush attack actually missed!

It was its armor…

That the monster could somehow defend against spiritual attacks, Jon’s intuition told him that it was because its armor had some sort of trick to it.

“Elemental Leap Wave Slash!”

Jon used Elemental Leap Wave Slash to dodge the warrior’s greatsword. As he passed by the monster, he struck with his own sword.

“Clang!”

A slash mark appeared across its ice-cold, black armor. Its armor was split apart, but the monster itself was not injured, because that sword was only enough to tear through its defenses.

“Triple Sword Desire!”

After passing by the warrior, the two of them were now standing with their backs facing each other. Jon and his opponent turned around and struck out with their swords at the same time.

“Whoosh——”

The water-rock elemental sword that had been blessed with Triple Sword Desire sliced through the opponent’s greatsword. In the midst of the warrior’s shock, he pointed his sword at its neck.

“Divine Light Blessing!”

The Molin Priest who was still standing by on the high platform watching the battle finally made its move. A black beam of light shot towards Jon.

“Frost Guard!”

Iris also followed suit and erected an ice wall behind Jon to block the priest’s divine spell.

The ice wall collapsed, and shards of ice flew everywhere. However, this gave Jon the time he needed to cut down the Level-12 elite-level warrior.

“Ding! Mission completed. Level-12 Elite Molin Warrior killed. Level fragment +450 obtained. Successfully extracted battle aura type advanced fragment +40 from the target’s body.”

Jon kicked the warrior’s corpse away and looked at the Molin priest. From his expression, it looked as if he was shouting, “Who’s next?”

“Bloodlust! Everyone, attack together! Kill him!”

The priest raised its scepter high, and a divine light shot out from the gem in the top of it of it, engulfing the entire area.

The Molin Priest did not want to use this move at all. Bloodlust would permanently drive its people into madness. However, in just two short exchanges, it had lost both of its most elite warriors. Now, it had no other choice.

The eyes of the Molin Tribe’s people were all covered in a layer of red. They tore at their own hair and screamed in an insane and meaningless manner.

The priest pointed its scepter towards Jon from afar. The Molin monsters were like sharks that had just caught the smell of the blood. They rushed at him crazily, as if they wanted to split him into dozens of pieces and eat him.

“Well done, brother priest. I was worried that some of these fish would escape, but now you’ve saved me a lot of energy.”

Jon shielded his body in front of Iris and raised his elemental water shield.

“This divine spell called Bloodlust seems to raise one’s attack level astronomically, but it doesn’t seem to increase one’s defense level, does it? After going berserk, they rush at me like zombies. Doesn’t that just make it easier for me to fight them?”

“Elemental Throw! Triple Sword Desire!”

Iris saw the bright light as scorching as the sun engulf the cave. Even though she was being blocked by the elemental water shield, she knew that there was a heat strong enough to vaporize an entire pond just within arm’s reach, sweeping away and purifying everything.

She saw the red-eyed Molin monsters melt like ice cream that had fallen on the floor in summer.

She saw the soil on the ground crack and break apart like after experiencing a long drought. She saw the cave collapsing!

She saw the old Molin Priest struggling to hold on. She felt the wails of all the cockroaches and ants in the cave.

Finally, in the reflection of the elemental water shield, she saw her shocked face!

“Ding! Mission completed. Level-7 Molin killed. Level fragment +20 obtained. Successfully extracted battle aura type advanced fragment +2 from the target’s body.”

“Ding! Mission completed. Level-8 Molin killed. Level fragment +30 obtained. Successfully extracted battle aura type advanced fragment +3 from the target’s body.”

“Ding! Mission completed. Level-9 Molin killed. Level fragment +40 obtained. Successfully extracted battle aura type advanced fragment +4 from the target’s body.”

…..

The Molin Tribe Priest managed to hold on until the end. At this point, the Molin Tribe had been completely annihilated.

“Ding! Mission completed. Level-13 Elite Molin Tribe Priest killed. Level fragment +500 obtained. Successfully extracted magic type advanced fragments +120 from the target’s body.”

Jon’s eyes lit up. He had not expected the Molin Tribe Priest to provide him with a brand new type of advanced fragment. That meant that there were even more possibilities for him ranking up.

This time, Elemental Toss and Triple Sword Desire had given Jon nearly 1,000 level fragments and nearly 200 battle aura type advanced fragments. The rewards were anything but small.

“Well, I’ve basically blown up the cave. See if there’s anything that can prove your contribution and bring it back to your family.”

Jon said to Iris.

After digging through the rubble and mud, Jon and Iris fully searched the remainder of the cave that was not completely buried.

They dug the old priest out of the ground. Iris wanted to bring his head back to her family to prove her contribution, and Jon got a ring from its finger. After checking it, he confirmed that it was an interspatial ring.
