Chapter 578 Chapter551-Defeating Numerous Devils
Whether it was members of the Dark Faction or the Order Faction, all they could see when they looked at John was a radiant blue glow.
This meant that each of John\'s attacks was now imbued with the boundless power of the water element.
Witnessing this, Shatras exclaimed in astonishment, "John has actually become the embodiment of the Sea God! He\'s truly achieved it! This is something that no member of the Naga tribe has ever accomplished! The Sea God is actually willing to bestow such formidable power upon him!"
As a Legend Magus of the Naga tribe, Shatras was naturally very familiar with the power of the water element.
She knew that possessing such formidable power of the water element could only mean one thing: gaining the recognition of the Sea God.
Shatras\'s words prompted various thoughts among the onlookers.
Natasha felt that the strength John had displayed was indeed worthy of the Sea God\'s recognition.
She was even more convinced that John\'s assistance would be crucial in the upcoming defense of Storm City.
Adam and Blue Sea were, of course, elated.
They felt that the enhancement of John\'s strength was a significant boon to their upcoming plans.
The Mystery Protector, however, harbored the most complex emotions at this time.
Predominantly, he felt envy. He too had hoped to receive the blessing of a deity from the Order Faction.
Yet, these deities of the Order Faction had not only failed to offer him any assistance but had continually restricted his actions.
The God of Mystery had even directly intervened to prevent the Mystery Protector from acquiring greater power.
Another prevailing sentiment was concern.
With John now in possession of such formidable power, could this pose a threat to him?
The Mystery Protector was unaware of John\'s intentions.
In the Mystery Protector\'s view, his previous conflicts with John were significant.
If it weren\'t for Storm City facing continuous threats from the Dark Faction and the Mystery camp, he would have already engaged in direct conflict with John.
The final emotion, of course, was anger.
He felt that John, as an adventurer, should not receive the blessing of a deity.
Why would a deity from the Order Faction bestow a blessing upon an adventurer?
Could it be that, in the eyes of the deities of the Order Faction, an adventurer was considered stronger than himself?
The Mystery Protector believed that he was surely more deserving than any adventurer.
Despite the complexity of his emotions, the Mystery Protector knew that the most crucial task at hand was to eliminate the two Devils before them.
After Flame Knight and Corruptor joined forces, their next objective was naturally to eliminate all the strong members of the Order Faction present.
Only by achieving this could their mission be considered a success.
For the two Devils, this plan had already come at a great cost.
Should this plan fail, their status within the Dark Realm would rapidly decline, a scenario they were unwilling to accept.
After Corruptor successfully rendezvoused with Flame Knight, he quickly became aware of the previous battle between John and Flame Knight.
The two Devils could rapidly share their memories with each other, making it clear that their greatest adversary under the current circumstances was John.
If they couldn\'t swiftly eliminate John, they might not even have the chance to retreat successfully.
Following this realization, the two Devils joined forces to launch their attack.
Corruptor launched a barrage of curse spells at John.
Although these curses were not potent enough to pose a significant threat to John, they were sufficient to distract him.
With John\'s attention diverted by Corruptor\'s curse spells, Flame Knight harnessed all of his dark power to launch an attack, deciding to fully engage in combat mode.
Upon entering combat mode, Flame Knight underwent a dramatic transformation.
His eyes merged into a single, massive orb filled with devil flame, effectively occupying his entire head.
This made Flame Knight appear as though he was entirely composed of devil flame.
As the two Devils launched their assault on John, the other members of the Order Faction chose not to assist John, understanding that he was capable of handling the attack from the two Devils on his own.
Their consideration was now on what actions they should take next, given that the majority of the demons had already been eliminated.
However, the attack on Storm City by the Dark Faction still had a significant impact on the city.
More importantly, Duke Arsena\'s whereabouts remained unknown.
Had Duke Arsena truly chosen to flee?
If he had indeed fled, then Natasha might have the opportunity to acquire Storm City as her fiefdom.
Nevertheless, Natasha did not wish for such a scenario.
She did not desire to gain control of Storm City; she hoped to acquire a different fiefdom.
"We should probably start looking for Duke Arsena now. Standing here watching John\'s battle isn\'t helping him. He\'d likely prefer that we take action promptly," Natasha reasoned.
After deciding on the next course of action, Natasha shared her thoughts with the others.
They all understood the urgency of locating Duke Arsena and thus split up to search for him.
Only the Mystery Protector returned after leaving, driven by a desire to witness the battle between John and the two Devils.
The Mystery Protector wanted to assess just how formidable John\'s strength truly was.
If John\'s power significantly exceeded his expectations, he would need to reconsider his future strategies.
Faced with the onslaught from the two Devils, not a single trace of change could be detected on John\'s expression.
The attacks from the Devils were effortlessly blocked by the water element that enveloped John.
John slowly raised his right hand, and as he did, the power of the water element converged into a massive blue orb in front of him.
The orb\'s flickering intensified, and even the Mystery Protector, who was some distance from the battlefield, could feel the immense shockwave of the water element about to unleash.
It was then that the Mystery Protector realized he had already been discovered by John.
John\'s forthcoming attack was aimed not only at annihilating the two Devils but also at severely injuring the Mystery Protector in the process.
Upon realizing John\'s intention, the Mystery Protector fled at top speed towards the Great Library.
He believed that, aside from the Great Library, no other place could withstand John\'s attack.
Corruptor and Flame Knight appeared clumsy in their response to John\'s assault, largely because they had nearly exhausted their abilities in the prior engagement.
Despite the immense power of the Devils and their embodiment of the essence of dark power, these beings do not possess infinite strength.
The spells they had cast previously had nearly depleted their reserves of dark power, leaving them with no extra energy to counter John\'s retaliatory strike.
Moreover, John\'s counterattack made no reservations in harnessing the power of the water element.
He channeled all the water element power bestowed upon him by the Sea God into a singular, formidable attack.
As the blue shockwave rapidly emanated from in front of John, Corruptor and Flame Knight, the two Devils, were utterly obliterated.
Although for Devils, destruction merely meant a return to the Dark Realm, this defeat would result in a significant depletion of their powers.
After expending all his water element power, John felt his vitality rapidly waning.
He was acutely aware that utilizing the Sea God\'s power came at a price; the cost being that he would not be able to swiftly engage in another battle.
Thus, he paid no mind to the Mystery Protector, who had taken refuge in the Great Library, and chose to return to his base in Storm City.
He needed to rapidly recuperate to his optimal state using restoratives, fully aware that the battle was far from over; in fact, it had only just begun.
The Dark Faction\'s defeat did not signify Storm City\'s safety, for the city\'s adversaries were not limited to the Dark Faction alone.
