Chapter 485 485-Quick Improvisation

Could it be that the Mystery Protector had discovered some clues among the books there?

If the Mystery Protector had found clues in those books, Duke Arsena should have discovered them much earlier. 

However, Duke Arsena did not openly display his surprise.

Nodding, he spoke to the guard who had rushed over, "I am aware now and will return as soon as possible. Please tell Lord Mystery Protector to be ready. Once we get back, have him explain to us what exactly this clue is."

The guard nodded and left, needing to quickly relay this message to the Mystery Protector.

There was no special channel of communication between the Mystery Protector and Duke Arsena. 

Their personal relationship was not particularly good. 

The reason they cooperated with each other was solely because they were both significant figures in the Northern Myst Empire.

"What exactly are you thinking? Don't assume I don't know; you must have had a conflict with the Mystery Protector before. I could tell from your interactions at the Defend Wall that you two weren't getting along very well."

The Mystery Protector turned his gaze directly to John. 

He no longer intended to waste time and hoped John could provide him with some information.

Although John was willing to tell the truth to Duke Arsena, he still felt that the Duke would never believe what he said. 

Therefore, John quickly improvised.

"I did have some conflicts with the Mystery Protector during the battle at Defend Wall. However, I believe I can still cooperate with him. Moreover, the clue he brought might have been discovered in the books at the Great Library.

I have also found some clues in the books of the Great Library before. But as you are well aware, as an adventurer, I am not very familiar with the books in the Great Library.

So, it's quite possible for the Mystery Protector to find more important clues. Since he has already informed you of this news, you should hurry to find him.

If you are willing to let me accompany you, I would be very happy to do so. After all, I am also curious to know what that more important clue the Mystery Protector has discovered is."

John's response was watertight. Duke Arsena stared intently at John's face for a moment, then smiled and said, "In that case, let's go to the Great Library together."

Duke Arsena and John went straight to the teleportation point of Iceburg Castle. 

Before teleporting, John specifically called Adam and Blue Sea over. 

He still had some matters to discuss with them.

"I have a very important matter and need to return to Storm City immediately. You two stay here at Iceburg Castle and handle other matters for now.

You must search here for more information related to Darklord. Although members of the Darklord guild have probably all escaped, they must have left some information behind.

This can greatly aid our upcoming battle with Darklord. Moreover, after the recent battle, Darklord will definitely consider you two as their biggest rivals.

You must also ensure your safety by quickly locating Darklord's whereabouts and identifying their biggest weaknesses."

John's plan was fully endorsed by both Adam and Blue Sea. 

They nodded and began to act according to John's instructions, also enlisting the help of their guild members.

"It seems that the cooperation among you adventurers is much more extensive than I had imagined. I originally thought that the cooperation among adventurers was not as frequent as the conflicts among you."

Duke Arsena, though not very familiar with Adam and Blue Sea, felt that since they could cooperate with John, they should not be in an adversarial relationship with him. 

Moreover, he noticed that the cooperation among adventurers like John seemed to be smoother than that among other adventurers.

"After all, there are many adventurers, and some of them are very dangerous. An adventurer like me, of course, is willing to help anyone, whether they are NPCs or other adventurers."

In response to John's reply, Duke Arsena didn't say much more. He simply returned to Storm City with John as quickly as possible.

Upon their return to Storm City, they immediately went to the Great Library at top speed. 

They learned from an apprentice magus at the library that the Mystery Protector was waiting for them at the top floor of the Great Library.

On the top floor of the Great Library, the Mystery Protector was looking at a thick, old book in his hands. 

The worn cover of the book indicated its considerable age.

"You were a bit too slow in your response. After I informed you that I had obtained a new clue, you should have hurried back here," said the Mystery Protector, his tone tinged with irritation as he continued to peruse the book in his hands. 

He had already noticed the arrival of Duke Arsena and John.

"We were dealing with an abnormal situation at Iceburg Castle! Iceburg Castle was attacked by Mystery monsters, a fact you must already be aware of. As members of the Order Faction, we naturally had to prioritize addressing the game monsters' attack," Duke Arsena immediately responded to the Mystery Protector's question. 

John, meanwhile, remained silent beside him, feeling it unnecessary to say anything to the Mystery Protector.

The two had previously clashed, and now both were aware of the other's true intentions. 

Each was waiting for an opportunity to completely eliminate the other.

"Since that's the case, I won't dwell on the past matters any longer. The reason I urgently called you back is that I found a very important clue in this book. 

It mentions information about the Mystery Saint. You should take a close look, as the information about the Mystery Saint is related to both the Dark Faction and the Naga Tribe."

As he handed the ancient book to Duke Arsena, the Mystery Protector explained the clue he had discovered within its pages.

Duke Arsena's expression didn't show much change, as he was already aware of the clue mentioned by the Mystery Protector, having learned it from John.

"I can tell from your expressions that you are not surprised, which means you already knew about this clue. However, I can provide more details about it. 

I previously thought that the cooperation between the Mystery Saint and the Naga Tribe posed a greater threat to us. But after carefully reading the information recorded in this book, I found that the Mystery Saint only wants to control the Naga Tribe.

The Mystery Saint has always been eager to use the Naga Tribe to further exploit the power of Mystery and turn the Sea God into a puppet of Mystery power.

We must go to the Naga Tribe quickly and inform them of this. If the Naga Queen learns of this, she should be able to react immediately. 

Her previous reluctance to cooperate with our Order Faction was entirely because she felt we could not offer her any help, and it seemed she no longer needed our assistance.

However, upon learning this information, the Naga Queen might change her decision. The Naga, after all, would absolutely never betray the Sea God. If the Naga Tribe betrays the Sea God, they will no longer be able to survive in the ocean. I think the Naga Queen is very clear about this."

The connection between the Mystery Saint and the Naga Tribe mentioned by the Mystery Protector made John feel as if he was approaching a massive conspiracy. 

He couldn't clearly discern whether the Mystery Protector's statements were true or false.

Even if what the Mystery Protector said was false, John realized he had to follow him to the Naga Tribe. Regardless of the Mystery Protector's intentions, the Naga Tribe would find themselves at the center of the storm.

This was because both the Mystery Saint and the Sea God were deities of very high stature. 

They had the power to significantly disrupt the activities of all adventurers, as well as the Order Faction.
