Sacrifice's Rise: I Became Invincible After Entering Godslayer Temple

Chapter 422 Chapter422-Futile Support

Darklord was effortlessly knocked down by a skill casually thrown by John, a sight that filled the other members of the Darklord guild with terror.

The deputy guild leader of Darklord's guild hid in a corner, praying not to be discovered by John and his allies.

The remaining members of the Darklord guild also concealed themselves in inconspicuous locations.

If even Darklord couldn't withstand John's assault, how could they possibly stand a chance?

To them, even Blue Sea was an unbeatable entity.

However, their worries were somewhat superfluous.

John didn't consider them a threat.

In his eyes, the only target that mattered was Darklord.

As long as he could exact revenge on Darklord, the other members of Darklord's guild were of little concern to him.

Even DARK EDGE would have been spared by John if he hadn't taunted him.

After all, the other members of the Darklord guild hadn't seriously wronged John.

"I've heard that your favorite activity is to rob other players of their equipment outside the main city and then kill them repeatedly until they de-level to the lowest rank. Today, I'm going to let you experience what those people felt. I will take all your equipment and kill you until you're back to level zero."

While John was aware that he couldn't completely eliminate Darklord in this Guild Battle, he could at least make him pay a heavy price.

His words and actions were a direct response to the cruelty Darklord had shown to others, turning the tables and delivering a form of poetic justice.

Stripping the opponent of all their equipment and resetting their level to zero was the ultimate punishment.

It would completely devalue Darklord's account. Even if they wanted to return to the ranks of top players, it would be impossible.

Facing John's words, Darklord remained silent. In his view, all he could do now was wait for others to come to his rescue.

During this waiting period, he only hoped that his level would drop a bit less and that some of his equipment would go unnoticed by John and his allies.

As John acted, Darklord's level plummeted from the initial 200 down to just 135. Darklord could still bear it, but the members of the Darklord Guild around him couldn't.

The Darklord Guild members began to scatter and flee.

Blue Sea casually eliminated a few of the stronger members of the Darklord Guild.

The weaker ones, he didn't care much about.

Now, besides John, Blue Sea, and Darklord, only the vice guild leader of the Darklord Guild remained on the scene.

The vice guild leader wanted to flee too, but he was too frightened to make any move.

When Darklord's level dropped to 100, the rescue he had been waiting for finally arrived.

Members of the Dawn Guild and the Shadowrealm Guild all came to Storm City.

The leader of the Dawn Guild had now been replaced by Netherworld Specter, who was previously the vice guild leader.

It was Netherworld Specter who had expelled Kingserp from the Dawn Guild and forced him to hand over all his remaining equipment.

Netherworld Specter and Karthus, the leader of the Shadowrealm Guild, received Darklord's call for help at the same time.

After discussing, they decided that aiding the Darklord Guild could be profitable this time.

Thus, the leaders of both guilds quickly arrived at Storm City with their top subordinates.

It didn't take them long to reach the doorstep of the Darklord Guild.

"Blue Sea, I never expected you to do something like this!"

Netherworld Specter said to Blue Sea with a tone of mockery.

He had been informed that Blue Sea was a person who strictly adhered to the rules.

Blue Sea usually didn't challenge other guilds and liked to help those that were not as powerful.

Hearing Netherworld Specter's voice, Blue Sea turned around.

He was not familiar with Netherworld Specter, as his fame was quite low previously.

However, Blue Sea was very familiar with Karthus.

Blue Sea had been present the last time Karthus fell into John's hands.

Compared to Netherworld Specter, Karthus was much more cautious.

He hesitated upon learning of Darklord's request for help, as he too had been previously attacked by Blue Sea.

If it was confirmed to be a Guild Battle between Blue Sea Guild and Darklord Guild, Karthus was entirely willing to offer help.

However, he always suspected that Blue Sea must have had John's support.

Upon reaching the doorstep of the Darklord Guild, Karthus remained silent, just observing the situation.

Soon, he noticed John's figure standing behind Blue Sea.

The moment Karthus caught sight of John's figure, he immediately used a teleportation scroll to return to his own guild.

Karthus's action caused confusion among the members of the Dawn Guild and Shadowrealm Guild present.

The members of the Shadowrealm Guild were also clueless as to why their leader chose to teleport away so abruptly.

"Why did Karthus, our guild leader, just leave like that?! Didn't we agree to come here together to help Darklord?"

Netherworld Specter quietly asked the members of the Shadowrealm Guild beside him.

The Shadowrealm Guild member he asked was equally unaware of the situation and could only respond with a helpless shake of his head.

"You actually managed to call for reinforcements, and other guilds are willing to help you. This is somewhat beyond my expectations," John observed.

John had noticed the sudden appearance of members from the Dawn Guild and Shadowrealm Guild at the doorstep of the Darklord Guild.

He had intended to have a chat with Karthus, but he hadn't expected Karthus to flee so swiftly.

John walked up to the entrance of the Darklord Guild, first glancing at Netherworld Specter, and then began to search for Kingserp's whereabouts.

"So, you're Blue Sea's ally, huh? If you know what's good for you, you'll leave now! Our Dawn Guild and Shadowrealm Guild have already decided to support the Darklord Guild. You have no idea how powerful we are. Karthus, our guild leader, has some other matters to attend to now, but he'll be back after handling them," Netherworld Specter boasted arrogantly, even though John hadn't yet located Kingserp.

John directly addressed Netherworld Specter, "So you're the new guild leader of Dawn Guild? Didn't your previous guild leader ever mention my name to you?"

Netherworld Specter harbored a deep wariness of Kingserp.

Although he had ousted Kingserp from the guild, he was still very apprehensive about others mentioning Kingserp in his presence.

"Who do you think you are, speaking to me like that? I'll show you—"

Netherworld Specter's words were cut off mid-sentence as John swiftly eliminated him.

"I gave him two chances. He failed to speak properly to me both times, so I won't be courteous anymore. The rest of you have two choices: either leave quickly or end up like Netherworld Specter, the Dawn Guild's guild leader!"

John's display of power left the other members of the Dawn Guild and Shadowrealm Guild in disbelief.

One guild leader had chosen to flee, and the other was instantly vanquished by John.

Without the leadership of top players, the other members, who were not as strong, naturally chose to escape.

John turned back to look at Darklord.

Although Darklord had been trying to escape during John's handling of the incoming Dawn Guild and Shadowrealm Guild members, John's control skills were too formidable.

Darklord couldn't break free without relying on the power of Mystery. John was very confident in this.

"Don't waste your energy. You won't be able to escape my control unless you use the power of Mystery. But if you use that power, you'll face the wrath of the Order Faction."

John intended to place Darklord in a dilemma, forcing him between a rock and a hard place.

This was his way of exacting revenge on Darklord.

Darklord seemed to realize that he couldn't escape the predicament on his own.

With a sinister tone, he said, "I still have other ways to get out of this!"

"Really? If you truly have another way out, why not tell me? Or better yet, why not use this method right now?"

John spoke to Darklord with a smile, confident in his victory and doubting Darklord had any chance of turning the tables.

John was about to continue taunting Darklord, but before he could speak further, a massive explosion sounded from the eastern walls of Storm City.

Along with the explosion, John also sensed a powerful surge of Mystery energy.

This force, daring to launch a direct assault on the main city of the Order Faction, signaled a significant and unexpected development.
