It turned out that the demon priest had used teleportation to hide in the crown of a tree in the forest. When Jon appeared in front of it with the pup in his arms, it was shocked and threw a withering spell at Jon.
“Ice Whirl!”
Jon teleported behind it and the demon priest quickly teleported away.
After the demon priest’s teleportation ended, Jon quickly found it through the ice field wolf.
The demon priest teleported again…
After nearly ten rounds, the demon priest finally stopped moving and raised its staff to cast a spell at Jon.
“Ice Spirit Attack!”
Jon would not give it another chance to cast a spell, so he immediately used Ice Spirit Attack to stun it.
The ice crystal wings on his back flapped vigorously, and Jon rushed at the demon priestess like a bullet.
“Battle Aura Ice Sword!”
Jon drew his sword at it.
“Ding, mission completed. Level 34 intermediate commander-level demon priest killed. Level fragment + 130,000. Successfully extracted magic advance fragment + 1000 from target’s body!”
The system notification sounded. The demon priest’s head had been chopped off by Jon.
After killing the demon priest, Jon first teleported back to Iris’s side, returned the ice field pup to Iris’s uncle, and then teleported back to the giant demon.
“Triple Sword Ultimate, Battle Aura Ice Sword!”
In the past, Jon could only use Triple Sword Ultimate, Battle Aura Ice Sword three times. After three moves, the elemental power would be exhausted, and Jon would collapse. However, after advancing to quasi-lord-tier, Jon could use this move six times. Moreover, the Triple Sword Ultimate, Battle Aura Ice Sword’s power had greatly increased. Otherwise, everyone would want to advance. This was an excellent item.
Buzz!
A crisp sword hum sounded. The troll’s mace was sliced open by Jon like a piece of tofu.
After the mace was easily sliced open, the blade did not stop. Instead, it cut into the troll ‘s body.
Pu!
Under the Triple Sword Ultimate. Battle Aura Ice Sword, even though it had steel-like skin, it was still sliced open by Jon. Both of the troll ‘s arms were chopped off at the same time.
“Triple Sword Ultimate. Battle Aura Ice Sword!”
With one stroke, Jon continued with a second stroke.
‘Ding! Mission completed. Level 32 low-level commander-level troll killed. Level fragment + 100,000. Battle aura advanced fragment extracted from target successfully + 80!’
At the end of the system beep, the troll’s head drops to the ground in sync.
“Kill both the demon priest and the troll!”
The knight commander, Iris’s uncle, her elder brother Wayne and the elites of other clans all watched Jon in astonishment.
Needless to say, the most powerful knight commander in Wind Riding City could not even defeat the troll. They had not imagined that they were toyed with by Jon and then killed like chopping vegetables.
As for the leader of this group of demons, the demon priest was supposed to be the most powerful one here. It killed and wounded so many people with one strike. However, it didn’t expect that it could only flee in panic in front of Jon and couldn’t even launch a powerful counterattack!
This summoned elemental creature was too powerful!
“It has become so powerful?”
Looking at Jon’s strength, Iris was both happy and worried. She was happy that she could sign a contract with such a powerful creature. However, she was worried that with Jon’s improvement speed, she would lose the ability to summon Jon sooner or later. If the gap in strength between the two was too big, she couldn’t even maintain Jon’s existence in the Material Plane.
Iris felt very troubled. “How did he improve so quickly…”
The other members of the Iris family felt bitter. Her summoned creatures were so powerful. It seemed that there was no need to fight for the head of the family anymore…
When the other demons saw that the demon priest was killed and troll were also killed, they lost their fighting spirit and fled in all directions.
“Chase after them while they are still alive!”
After the commander-in-chief shouted, all the elites of the clans raised their morale and started to chase after them, which was the easiest way to kill the enemy and make a meritorious deed.
It was getting late. After the battle, the demons were completely defeated. However, none of the humans showed any mercy. Those were all military meritorious deeds. Who would let the money slip away from their hands?
After cleaning up the battlefield, the knight commander frowned. There were some discrepancies between the actual number of demons and the information intelligence. Additionally, a high level demon who had fought him two days ago didn’t show up at all, he didn’t believe that the high level demon had left by chance.
After searching the demon camp carefully, he finally found some clues in a room.
The soldiers pried open the floor of the room. There was a bottomless hole under the floor!
The hole was so deep that neither stones nor torches could make any sound. It was as if everything was swallowed by something indescribable.
The knight commander found a great mage from the elites of the major clans and cast an astrology on the cave, trying to predict what was in the cave.
The mysterious magic array unfolded in the hands of the mage, causing Iris to be filled with envy and admiration.
Astrology was a spell used by mortals to predict the will of the gods. It was said that if one practiced it to the extreme, one would be able to know the past and the future and discover all the secrets of the world.
Therefore, every mage who could cast an astrology was a knowledgeable scholar.
However, after the magic circle lit up, it flickered once and then went out. The mage also let out a scream and spat out a mouthful of blood before fainting on the ground.
Everyone’s expression changed drastically. They all knew that this was not because the mage’s astrology failed, but because there was something in the cave that was trying to observe the mage and attacked him, and then cut off the magician’s magic!
Everyone became cautious. They all understood that this cave was definitely very dangerous. Moreover, this place was so close to Wind Riding City. If they did not want to move, they definitely could not ignore it.
“We must explore this cave clearly. Otherwise, everyone in the city will not be able to sleep well!”
The knight commander made a judgment.
“Yes, all possible dangers must be eliminated as far as possible. The ostrich policy must not be adopted.”
The others nodded one after another. It would have been fine if they did not know about it before, but once they understood that such a dangerous place was hidden within close proximity, they would not be able to feel at ease at all.
“But, who will go down to investigate?”
Someone asked this question, and the scene instantly fell silent.
That’s right? Who will go down? No one knew what the situation was at the bottom of the cave. Those who went down not only needed to be brave, but also needed sufficient strength to be able to investigate the cave clearly.
And what did sufficient strength mean? What kind of strength was sufficient? Who had the confidence to face this bottomless cave and be able to deal with whatever was inside?
Those present were the elites of the major families, and all of them had a wonderful life to enjoy. Who would be willing to bet their wonderful life on it?
Everyone present was once again caught in an awkward situation where they looked at each other, hoping that someone would go down to investigate the situation. However, they all hoped that the person who went down would not be themselves.
