Chapter 582 Chapter555-Continuous Combat
He felt that the opponent's current words were merely an attempt to provoke him intentionally.
Having replenished his supplies and restored himself to optimal condition, John naturally chose to launch his attacks with all his might.
After dodging the assault from the Mirror of Mystery, John immediately counterattacked with the Abyssal Prison.
He unleashed one sealing spell after another.
Each of these sealing spells might not significantly impact Darklord individually.
However, when utilized together, they could plunge Darklord into considerable trouble.
Darklord could feel his Mystery power rapidly depleting, which was incredibly unbelievable to him.
This was because he had once received a crucial piece of information from Mystery Saint, stating that the power of Mystery was not easily sealed.
Only the power of Mystery could seal itself.
The various powers held by the deities of the Order Faction could only suppress the power of Mystery to a certain extent, nothing more.
If Mystery Saint hadn't lied to Darklord, then all the sealing spells John was using must indeed be powered by the force of Mystery.
Realizing this, Darklord's expression turned to one of sheer astonishment.
After all, he had previously considered John to be the greatest enemy of the Mystery faction.
Could it be that even the greatest enemy of the Mystery faction could harness the power of Mystery?
While countering John's attacks, Darklord questioned, "How is this possible? How can you wield the power of Mystery? Has Mystery Saint actually permitted you to invoke the power of Mystery?"
Darklord's incredulous counter-question seemed almost comical to John.
He had thought Darklord would have been fully prepared before taking action, but it now seemed Darklord's understanding of him was not as comprehensive as imagined.
Of course, John wouldn't cease his combat efforts just because of his opponent's query.
He continued to launch spells at his adversary but took a moment to address the question.
For John, if he could deter his opponent by shedding light on his capabilities, it would minimize the risks he faced.
Continuing the battle could mean defeating Darklord, but it might also expose him to threats from other top players or powerful NPCs.
"I had thought you were quite informed about me, but it appears your understanding is still quite limited. You're right; only Mystery itself can mobilize the power of Mystery. But how do you know I don't possess the power of Mystery?
I was once sealed by the Mystery Saint and managed to acquire a certain amount of Mystery power during my confinement. With the Book of the Astral Realm in my possession, the Mystery power I hold is in fact no less significant than that of the Mystery Vanguard. If the Mystery Vanguard can harness the power of Mystery, naturally, so can I."
John's words confirmed the very situation Darklord had feared the most.
Realizing this, Darklord immediately drew out the Mysterious wand.
"Even if you can summon the power of Mystery, I will not fear! For in the forthcoming battle, with the aid of Mystery Saint, I will utterly defeat you!"
No sooner had Darklord spoken than the Mysterious wand unleashed a formidable surge of Mystery power.
With this advantageous force, Darklord conjured a massive blade in the form of a shadowy apparition.
Without hesitation, Darklord hurled the shadowy blade, its formidable Mystery power not only endowing the blade with terrifying lethality but also causing a certain distortion in the surrounding space.
This distortion rendered John's previously used sealing spells and the spatial authority of the Book of the Astral Realm likely ineffective in blocking this attack.
Faced with Darklord's strike, John naturally didn't plan to confront it head-on.
He decided to temporarily evade, planning to continue the battle after dodging this attack from his opponent.
John used the Book of the Astral Realm to perform a series of rapid teleports. fr(e)enovelkiss.com
The reason for these consecutive teleports was John's awareness of the immense power behind Darklord's attack; he had to ensure he could avoid the assault.
If Darklord's attack had a tracking effect similar to the previous Mirror of Mystery, a single teleportation by John would unlikely suffice for evasion.
As John used teleportation to dodge Darklord's attack, Darklord once again wielded the Mysterious wand.
The wand's Mystery power enveloped Darklord completely.
Subsequently, the Mystery power converged to a single point, transporting Darklord to a location far from Storm City.
When John returned to his original position after evading Darklord's prior attack, he realized that the attack was merely a diversion to distract him.
Darklord realized he couldn't defeat John, so he chose to flee.
Such an outcome was naturally unacceptable to everyone.
The top players, who had hoped to gain more combat experience from this battle, were particularly disappointed.
All the top players thought Darklord was too cowardly.
In their view, Darklord wasn't at a disadvantage in the combat.
Meanwhile, on the gaming forums, players of lower levels ridiculed Darklord.
They believed that Darklord was scared off by John's bluff.
["The famous Darklord actually fled because of an opponent's bluff. It seems he's not a top player at all, just a nobody."]
["I think we shouldn't insult nobodies; at least they can cause some trouble for their opponents in battle. They wouldn't just run away like Darklord did when facing a slight disadvantage."]
["Did anyone understand what happened? Why don't I get it? Wasn't Darklord already gaining the upper hand in his previous attack? Why did he choose to run away?"]
["It seems top players are not that impressive after all. They just entered the game earlier than us and have more Sacred Relics. Their combat skills might not even be as good as ours."]
Neither John nor Darklord paid much attention to the discussions among the less powerful players on the gaming forums.
After Darklord's departure, John didn't immediately lower his guard.
Being a very cautious person, he suspected that his opponent might not have fled directly.
Perhaps the enemy was just lurking in the shadows, waiting to strike when John became complacent.
After observing for a while and ascertaining his safety, John finally relaxed and planned to rendezvous with other members of the Order Faction.
However, just then, he sensed the presence of another powerful entity in the direction of the Great Library.
Instinctively, John concealed his movements.
John was not eager to engage in another battle with a powerful opponent.
The extensive series of continuous fights he had just been through, though victorious, had depleted all his resources.
John was now out of supplies and spell scrolls.
Even if faced with adversaries like a Mystery Protector or someone of Shatras's caliber, he would not stand a chance.
After concealing himself, John immediately sent a message to his allies.
["Darklord has been defeated by me. Although I didn't manage to eliminate him completely, he won't pose a threat to us for a while. Where are you all now? Everyone, please hurry to Storm City and meet up with me."]
John hoped his allies could quickly make their way to Storm City.
He believed that his allies could at least provide him with protection when he was not in his best condition.
After sending out this message, the presence of the powerful entity from the direction of the Great Library also vanished.
Only then did John decide to head directly to the teleportation point of Storm City.
Upon arriving at the location, John indeed met Shatras, Adam, and Blue Sea directly.
Seeing only these three, John felt somewhat puzzled because he expected the teleportation point of Storm City to be more crowded.
"Why are only you three here? Where are the others? Were they all eliminated by the Devil of the Dark Faction? Or did they all choose to flee after being at a disadvantage in battle?"
Feeling quite perplexed, John naturally asked the three in front of him.
They quickly recounted the events that had transpired, and John finally understood why Duke Arsena and Natasha were not present.
