Chapter 495 495-The Arrival of the Mystery Saint
Shatras, witnessing the three silent figures before her, grew increasingly anxious.
She was eager for them to quickly devise a defense strategy for the Naga Tribe.
"Her Majesty the Queen has made the situation quite clear. Given this, have any of you thought of a way to help the Naga Tribe successfully defend against this threat?"
Shatras's words snapped the Naga Queen, Mystery Protector, and Duke Arsena back to the present.
They had been preoccupied with pondering the recent events, but Shatras reminded them that their immediate priority was to prevent the Naga Tribe from being annihilated by the Mystery Power, which would potentially lead to the resurrection of the Mystery Saint.
"I believe that conventional methods will not suffice for our defense! Let's utilize all the divine scrolls we have. With their help, we can construct a barrier. This barrier should be able to withstand the onslaught of the Mystery creatures for a while. During this time, we can seek help from others. There are still some powerful individuals in the Northern Myst Empire. If I can leave the Naga Tribe, I can request these experts from the Northern Myst Empire for support."
Mystery Protector quickly formulated a plan.
In his view, relying solely on their own strength for defense was no longer feasible.
This suggestion to use divine scrolls to create a protective barrier, while seeking external assistance, appeared to be a practical approach under the dire circumstances.
The challenge now was to implement this strategy swiftly and effectively, as the threat from the Mystery Saint and the creatures grew more imminent.
Recognizing the need for more powerful assistance to ensure a successful defense, Mystery Protector decided to leave the Naga Tribe and return to the Northern Myst Empire.
He believed that if he could clearly convey the situation to the other experts there, they would undoubtedly come to their aid immediately.
The Naga Queen did not object; in fact, she hoped that Mystery Protector would quickly inform others in the Northern Myst Empire about their predicament.
After receiving the Queen's consent, Mystery Protector attempted to leave using a Teleport Spell, but it failed to activate.
Upon witnessing this, Duke Arsena stated directly, "It seems that Mystery Power has sealed off the Naga Tribe area! None of us can leave successfully now! We must rely on our own strength for defense!"
This revelation alarmed Shatras, but the Naga Queen and Mystery Protector remained calm, as if they had already prepared themselves for such a situation.
"In that case, let's not ponder over it any further. The four of us are among the strongest, so we should defend the four walls of the Naga Tribe. If no more Mystery creatures arrive, I believe we can hold out for a while longer."
The Naga Queen seemed somewhat relieved compared to before.
Initially, she alone was aware of the immense crisis facing the Naga Tribe.
After sharing this crisis with the others, the burden of pressure she felt had somewhat lessened.
With the situation growing increasingly dire, the four strongest defenders of the Naga Tribe prepared to face whatever came next, standing firm in the face of overwhelming odds.
Their unity and resolve would be crucial in the battle against the encroaching Mystery Power.
Despite her utmost efforts, she was no match for the projection of Mystery Saint.
The situation had become dire, with the Naga Tribe facing an unprecedented threat that seemed to spell their inevitable defeat.
Upon seeing the Naga Queen severely wounded, Duke Arsena immediately launched his sword towards the direction of Mystery Saint while casting the Holy Light spell, Sacred Guard.
As the Sacred Guard took effect, a shield composed of Holy Light enveloped the Naga Queen.
Although this shield couldn't fully withstand the attacks of Mystery Saint's power, it at least ensured that the Naga Queen wouldn't be directly annihilated by Mystery Saint.
With Duke Arsena's help, the Naga Queen narrowly escaped Mystery Saint's attack.
However, even as a mere projection, Mystery Saint, embodying Mystery Power, possessed immense combat strength.
Without hesitation, Mystery Saint's projection hurled two Mystery spells towards the Naga Queen and Duke Arsena, which transformed into Mystery Vanguards mid-air.
The appearance of two additional Mystery Vanguards, on top of the already overwhelming assault, rendered the Naga Tribe's defenses unsustainable.
The Naga Queen and Duke Arsena had no choice but to temporarily retreat to the Queen's palace, knowing that additional defensive arrays were in place there.
"We must retreat to the palace! Only there can we continue our defense! You must inform Mystery Protector and Shatras about this. They might still be unaware that we are under attack by Mystery Saint. If they aren't prepared, they could be easily annihilated by him."
The Naga Queen, in her moment of crisis, did not just think of herself.
She was also concerned about the safety of those who had come to her aid, fearing they might fall into great danger.
However, Duke Arsena did not act on the Naga Queen's instructions.
He believed that both Mystery Protector and Shatras would likely have already sensed the arrival of Mystery Saint.
Indeed, Duke Arsena's judgment proved to be more accurate.
At the same time the Naga Queen was grievously injured, both Shatras and Mystery Protector felt the overwhelming presence of Mystery Power.
Although they hadn't immediately confirmed the arrival of Mystery Saint, they knew they had to quickly ascertain the situation.
Eventually, Mystery Protector and Shatras joined the Naga Queen and Duke Arsena at the Queen's palace.
All four of them were unsure of what to do next.
As they began to feel a sense of despair, they simultaneously sensed an immensely powerful force – the power of the Sea God.
In the end, it appeared that the Sea God had chosen to intervene directly!novelbin
