Supreme Lord: I can extract everything!



The moment Michael joined the fight, the tide of the battle changed drastically. It turned out much worse for the invaders.

The six Adventurer teams were occupied with facing his soldiers when Michael appeared next to a Late Tier-1 Zentors Adventurer. 

His Artifacts were shrouded in a white hue, and his eyes shone in a golden luster.

Eagle Eyes and Lesser Enhancement were unleashed and on full display for everyone to see. 

Certain that Michael's Soultrait was related to his eyes, or the white hue engulfing his Artifacts, the Zentors unleashed his own Soultrait.

His body expanded and he was about to smash his heavy fists down on Michael's tiny body when his expression turned blank all of a sudden.

The corner of Michael's lip tilted upward in a smirk. He had caught the Zentors off-guard!

Not expecting a mental attack at this point, the Zentors was hit with a fully empowered Spirit Whip. The Zentors lost focus and his Soultrait was deactivated immediately.

Michael used the Zentors' struggle and shock to pounce upon him and thrust forward with Seron Voulge.

Normally, his opponent would have regained his composure by now, but the backlash of having his Soultrait forcefully deactivated dealt additional damage on his mind. 

The Zentors regained his senses when it was already too late. His head felt extremely light, blood spurted through the surroundings, and his vision tunneled all of a sudden.

The last thing the Zentors could remember was hearing a thud. After that there was nothing. He had been devoured by eternal darkness. Death was the only thing that remained.

Michael moved on after defeating his first opponent in close combat. He didn't waste any time and kept Eagle Eyes, Lesser Enhancement, and Spirit Whip activated.

After upgrading Spirit Whip to a 3-Star Soultrait, it turned even more terrifying than it had been.

The Spirit Whip's range expanded quite a bit, and the lethality increased exponentially. But the same could be said about the difficulty of maintaining and controlling the Spirit Whip. 

Before, Michael could use five Spirit Whips simultaneously. However, right now, a single Spirit Whip was all Michael could use while fighting and using his other Soultraits.

But that was all he needed. A single Spirit Whip was strong enough to affect a Tier-1 Adventurer. If they were hit with the Spirit Whip off-guard, their defense would crumble, and it would become increasingly difficult to regain their former dynamic and upper hand in the fight.

That was something Michael made use of. On his way to the Tier-2 Adventurers, his Spirit Whip lashed out at every one of the remaining Adventures. They were unprepared and lost their focus for a moment after the impact.

That was enough to deactivate their Soultraits and fire affinity for a moment. The moment of disturbance was not enough for Michael to kill all of them, but his Warriors had already been prepared to attack when Michael arrived and caught the opponents off guard.

They used the golden opportunity and struck their opponents from all directions.

As the massacre continued, the Forest Elves witnessed everything, and they realized what total annihilation truly meant.

They might have injured the most powerful members of the six Adventurer teams before the poison rendered them unable to continue fighting, but the Forest Elves knew that the battlefield in front of them was far from simple.

Their opponents were obliterated, rendered unable to run through the Untamed Jungle with fast strides, and incapable of properly fighting against the people who fought like they had been trained to move through the Untamed Jungle for years.

"They're just…a bunch of Tier-1 Summons…so why…" One of the Forest Elves began to speak, only to stop mid-way. 

He was baffled at the sight of Michael and Tiara working together to not just fight but kill a Tier-2 Adventurer.

Of course, the two didn't fight alone. But even then, the combat prowess and synergy displayed by Michael and Tiara was terrific – just like their Soultraits.

Lilica had difficulties forcing a smile on her face. She had already sized up the surrounding area and the battlefield and knew that there was a canopy bridge spread across the dense thicket above them.

The canopy bridges were well-connected and well-hidden. Lilica wouldn't have found the canopy bridges if not for the barrages of arrows and spears. She noticed that the projectiles shot downward after reaching a certain height, which was why she looked up, just to find hidden canopy bridges that had close to a hundred Archers, two Elemental Mages, and most other long-range combat units hidden behind the lush greenery. They were close enough to participate in the battle, but far enough to not bother the close combat units and stay safe.

Everything was well-designed, perfect for a situation like today.

It was quite shocking.

Nonetheless, Lilica looked at her comrade with a faint smile. She asked in a voice loud enough that summarized what everyone else had been thinking, "Do you think they could defeat us?"

The attention of the four Forest Elves was pulled to their leader.

"It's pretty simple, actually," Lilica said. She frowned deeply and couldn't smile anymore at the sight unfolding right in front of them.

"We wouldn't stand a chance against them. Maybe, not even when we're at our peak."

She revealed the bitter truth in an emotionless tone, almost like it was a bad joke. However, they knew that Lilica wouldn't joke about something like that. 

They knew her well enough to understand what she was feeling right now.

After a while, Lilica's expression turned sour. It was hard to hide the bitter feeling in her heart, tinged with just a little jealousy.

In fact, everyone felt like her. They all lost their territory due to various reasons. However, the biggest reason was their inability to face their enemies.

Overpowered, they could only surrender as a Lord and become part of the Zentika Empire or give up their rights as Lords and become Adventurers. That way, they could retain some freedom.

However, it was incomparable to the feeling of freedom and power one had as a Lord and the confidence received by leading an army of loyal subjects. 

Michael hadn't been a Lord for a long time. The members of the EmeraldLeaf Adventurer team clearly recalled that the protection barrier of his territory was still up when they first met.

Not much time had passed since then, but Michael was already strong enough to fend for himself against powerful opponents. 

It was amazing, but it was also a slap on the face of all those who hadn't been strong enough to protect their territory. 

She added, "They learned to use their environment and numbers to their advantage. In such a short time, they learned how to overpower existences of s higher Tier…They learned how to hunt Tier-2 Monsters while being Tierless."

She was highly impressed by Michael's progress.

"I have to be dreaming. That doesn't make sense."

It was a fact that all monsters had a weak spot and exposed vital points that could be hurt even by existences of a lower Tier.

However, the damage caused by a Tierless existence's attack was nothing noteworthy to a Tier-2 Monster because its vitality was extremely high.

But if hundreds of people attacked simultaneously, even a small attack with pebbles could turn into a downpour of rocks, drowning the enemy slowly.

The situation in Michael's territory was not much different. 

Most of his Summons were still Tierless. However, the Summons with high star rating were also those who advanced to the 1st Tier.

They had been strong before, but now their power has increased by leaps and bounds.

Their attacks were either used to distract the opponents, restrict their movements, or slowly take them out one after another.

By skillfully hiding their attacks amid the 'insignificant' attacks of Tierless Warriors, they gained several opportunities to inflict serious injuries. And that was exactly what they did.
