"Such immense power."
Iron Mountain was somewhat surprised, but after checking his health, he felt relieved.
It wasn't bad. While Qin Jie's damage was outrageous, it wasn't that terrifying yet; at least he could hold on for a moment. One had to remember, Qin Jie was currently facing the encirclement of over a dozen ranged professions, and ultimately, he would be the only one to survive!
Just as Iron Mountain predicted, a large number of Spell attacks flew towards Qin Jie. At this moment, Green Vine had mobilized all the mages to attack Qin Jie simultaneously.
With an earth-shattering explosion, smoke filled the area, and even Iron Mountain was badly shaken by the blast.
He thought to himself, "With such a terrifying commotion, that person must be dead by now, right?"
His response was a violent thud.
As the smoke cleared, Qin Jie's figure reappeared, looking completely unharmed.
At this moment, Qin Jie slammed his sword down again, directly deforming Iron Mountain's outer armor.
The massive armor indeed provided Iron Mountain with sufficient defensive attributes. His set of armor was of purple quality, and it was defense-specialized. Coupled with the effect of the Chain of Order, Iron Mountain was often able to withstand tons of damage.
This was also why he remained at the camp, because his equipment was only suitable for defense.
But at this moment, Iron Mountain realized something was amiss.
How did it feel like the man in front of him was even tougher than he was?
"Bang!"
The greatsword-shaped devouring abyss struck down again. At this moment, Iron Mountain's body was driven into the ground like a nail by Qin Jie, his calves directly buried in the earth.
And the armor he wore was already beginning to deform under Qin Jie's blows. The wide sword body, combined with Qin Jie's 30 points of strength, dealt damage that was difficult to comprehend.
If this purple armor originally brought Iron Mountain a sense of security, then the armor now pressing against his body felt like a countdown to death.
"Bang!"
A huge impact struck. Iron Mountain suddenly felt a sharp pain; his skull had been fractured by that last hit. If this continued, he would be trapped and slowly die within the iron contraption he was wearing.
Another sword strike came down. The thick blade of the greatsword-shaped devouring abyss was very suitable for striking people. To quickly deal with this trouble in front of him, Qin Jie used all his strength. With this blow, the man's helmet was directly flattened, and dots of blood began to seep from the helmet's cracks.
"Damn it! Damn it! Attack with all you've got! If Iron Mountain can't hold on, we'll all die!"
Green Vine screamed frantically from the side, her voice distorted by fear. On the other side of the battlefield, Kuang Gu sent another communication, cursing angrily.
"Green Vine, what the hell is going on with you? Why did the firepower support stop completely?"
"Shut your stinking mouth, you *******."
A distraught Green Vine immediately retorted, her bloodshot eyes fixed on Qin Jie. She had never expected such a monster to be in Figlet's convoy.
"Save me, Green Vine, save me! I don't want to die here, monster, this guy is a monster!"
In the darkness, Iron Mountain's emotions completely collapsed. Just a moment ago, Qin Jie had struck the back of his head. His two eyeballs had been dislodged by the powerful impact. Blinded and on the verge of death, Iron Mountain was now utterly terrified.
I don't want to die, I don't want to die.
The next moment, the Chain of Order binding Qin Jie was actively removed by Iron Mountain. Then, Iron Mountain, half-buried in the earth, hurriedly said, "Don't kill me, please, Grandpa, don't kill me. I've removed it, I've removed the Chain of Order. Don't kill me, go kill them."
Under the fear of death, the tank, who was supposed to protect his teammates, now actively encouraged the enemy to attack his comrades.
Qin Jie found it somewhat incomprehensible.
It's come to this stage, and someone still thinks begging for mercy will work?
[You are being watched by the Maiden of Prayer.]
Alright, I forgot about that.
Qin Jie was momentarily speechless, not expecting that begging for mercy actually had some use.
Though not much use, it seemed.
The devouring abyss struck down. With this blow, Iron Mountain's head was completely flattened, and blood and brain matter flowed from the cracks in his helmet.
A red film appeared on his body. Blood Fate made Qin Jie immune to instant death. The next moment, he turned his gaze to the others.
In reality, there were still three melee Contractor professions. These individuals surrounded Qin Jie, trembling with fear, and for a moment, dared not approach.
Clearly, Qin Jie's appearance had intimidated these people. If not for the agreement they had signed, which would incur heavy paradise coinspenalties for fleeing, these people would have long since run away.
Shaking the blood from the sword, the crimson blade extended, and Po Jun Blade activated.
"He's coming!"
With Green Vine's shriek, Qin Jie's figure vanished from his original spot, reappearing as he charged towards the mages in the back row.
The greatsword carried gravity. The mage targeted by Qin Jie tried to escape, but the next moment his body was suddenly pulled backward, directly rushing towards the blade of the devouring abyss, and was then cut in half on the spot.
Blood rained down.
Sensing the blood, the butcher's coat on Qin Jie's body immediately unzipped three zippers. This meant three sucking mouths opened, each inflicting 5 points of mental damage on those nearby and having a chance to drive them into a frenzy.
"Stop him! Quickly stop him! If we let him continue killing the backline, we'll all die!" Green Vine shrieked, but the next moment, she met Qin Jie's icy gaze.
"You are the one in command?"
The greatsword's blade was still dripping blood, and the attached corpse was slowly being devoured by the devouring abyss.
The remaining three melee Contractors surrounded Qin Jie, yet dared not advance, only circling from a distance.
Everyone knew that Qin Jie at this moment was simply unstoppable by them.
At such a moment, to still surround him without attacking was so foolish it made Qin Jie want to laugh.
Since three people were surrounding him, then all three of them should die together.
Qin Jie swung his sword fiercely. The powerful gravitational force caused the three individuals' bodies to be attracted for a moment, directly falling towards Qin Jie. The next moment, a huge dark shadow enveloped their vision.
The devouring abyss struck down.
Slaughter Specialization LV10's passive allowed Qin Jie to easily identify each person's vital points, even the weak parts of their armor. This single sword strike actually split all three people in front of him in half.
"Thud."
The severed bodies rolled to the ground, blood and organ fragments spilling everywhere in an instant. The night was cold, and after a brief puff of white steam, the blood turned icy.
And the zippers of the butcher's coat were all open at this moment, as if declaring one thing.
The butcher was about to begin his slaughter.
One could say Qin Jie was still merciful. Slaughter Specializationallowed him to deal extra damage when piercing an enemy's vital points, so all these people died instantly on the spot.
All melee Contractors were slain by Qin Jie. Their desperate attacks failed to reduce Qin Jie's health by even a single sliver. This feeling was despairing, like encountering a cheater in a game; no matter how hard they tried, they couldn't win.
"Run!"
Someone shrieked first, and then people began to flee one after another.
Even though the penalties for mission failure and desertion were severe, at least their lives would be spared. Continuing to oppose Qin Jie would only lead to death.
In the end, only Green Vine and seven Contractors remained.
The reason they didn't run wasn't due to deep loyalty, but because they no longer had enough paradise coins to offset the penalties.
Everyone present looked grim and began to plead for mercy, unaware that the more they did so, the more it forced Qin Jie to kill them quickly.
One had to remember that the Maiden of Prayer's curse could be deadly.
These eight people, after only a brief resistance, were immediately slain by Qin Jie.
"Why is there a monster like you among first-tier Contractors?"
Before her death, Green Vine looked at Qin Jie in despair. She didn't understand why such a monster would appear in a knight order that didn't even exist in the original story.
It was illogical.
However, Paradise was never a place that adhered to logic.
