Chapter 538-The Failure of Storm City\'s Defense
After a period of dedicated effort, he felt that he had mastered the great power within the gemstones. Mystery Protector could also sense that outside the walls of Storm City, the Dark Faction\'s assault had begun.
Now, he was contemplating whether or not to act according to Darklord\'s plan. He didn\'t believe that Darklord was entirely on his side. What if he followed Darklord\'s plan, and the operation failed? Would Darklord provide him assistance to successfully escape the pursuit of other powerful Order Faction members?
Mystery Protector did not believe that Darklord would assist him willingly. He thought it was more likely that Darklord would take advantage of the situation to divert the attention of other Order Faction strongholds.
So, at the beginning, Mystery Protector was absolutely reluctant to easily choose to proceed with Darklord\'s plan. However, as time passed, the pressure he faced would continue to increase because Darklord had begun sending him messages through the communication channel. Darklord questioned Mystery Protector directly, saying, "Why are you not taking action yet? Have you forgotten our previous agreement? If you don\'t intend to follow our plan, don\'t blame me for not being polite."
Darklord\'s tone was actually quite angry. In Darklord\'s view, if Mystery Protector did not proceed with his plan, the entire Mystery camp\'s operation would encounter significant trouble.
Faced with such immense pressure, Mystery Protector had no choice but to take action. Mystery Protector nodded directly and then sent a message to Darklord, saying, "I will take action immediately; you will soon see the failure of Storm City\'s defense!"
After sending this message, Mystery Protector walked out of his room and gathered all the apprentice magi outside his room.
"I suddenly realized during my recovery that there\'s a spell I\'m not very familiar with. Can you all help me find books related to that spell?" When a Legend Magus like Mystery Protector requested assistance, the apprentice magi naturally didn\'t refuse.
So, all of the Order Faction\'s apprentice magi went to the Great Library\'s archives to search for the books mentioned by Mystery Protector.
Just as Adam and Blue Sea managed to escape from the city walls, Storm City\'s four walls experienced violent tremors and then completely collapsed. The guards on Storm City\'s walls and other Order Faction members suffered significant damage. Some of the Dark Faction demons, who were closer to Storm City\'s walls, were also eliminated.
However, for the Dark Faction, these losses were not a major concern. They had prepared for this operation with the expectation of paying a heavy price.
When Storm City\'s walls collapsed entirely, everyone realized that the city\'s defense had utterly failed. Inside the Great Library, Mystery Protector wore a very pleased expression. But when his door was knocked on by the apprentice magi, his face displayed both shock and disappointment. Upon seeing the apprentice magi, he immediately addressed them.
"Why did this happen? Why did the defense fail?! You must prepare for battle immediately. Although my condition is not great, I will also prepare for battle."
Mystery Protector\'s words earned him the approval of the apprentice magi. While they had great respect for Mystery Protector before, they didn\'t perceive him as a particularly friendly individual. They had always felt that the conflict between Mystery Protector and John seemed intentionally provoked by Mystery Protector. However, in the current dire situation facing Storm City, Mystery Protector\'s willingness to provide assistance made it clear that he was indeed a good person.
"We are prepared for battle, and we will cooperate with your actions. Although your condition isn\'t great, you are still a Legend Magus. It\'s an honor for us to face the Dark Faction\'s attacks under the leadership of a Legend Magus!" they replied.
In this way, Mystery Protector successfully gathered all the apprentice magi from the Great Library on his side. He did this partly to make everyone believe that he wasn\'t the mastermind behind the destruction of Storm City\'s defenses. Additionally, he hoped to further weaken Storm City\'s defense. In Mystery Protector\'s view, while the strength of these apprentice magi might not be top-tier, they could still provide some assistance to Storm City\'s defense.
Mystery Protector did not want his and Darklord\'s actions to ultimately fail. He hoped that the Dark Faction would achieve success because that would enable him to rid himself of a highly dangerous enemy like John. Mystery Protector had always believed that John\'s strength far surpassed that of Darklord. John was undoubtedly the strongest adventurer.
