Chapter 420 Chapter420-The Reluctant Challenge of Darklord

In the highest room of the Darklord guild, Darklord himself was slumped on the couch, pressing his temples.

The series of events that had transpired recently had left him feeling an immense sense of crisis.

John's rapid rise in strength and his powerful special skills were like thorns in Darklord's side.

"Why has he become so strong? This shouldn't be happening!"

Darklord continued to mutter to himself in complaint.

Just then, his door was suddenly knocked on.

Darklord sat up angrily and yelled at the door, "Didn't I tell you before? I'm resting! Don't disturb me!"

His furious roar made the members of the Darklord guild outside shiver.

They were already startled by John's sudden emergence.

"Lord Darklord! An intruder has broken into our guild! This intruder says he wants to see you, claiming to have something very important to discuss," said the trembling guild member outside, after pondering for a moment, decided to relay John's message to Darklord.

Initially, Darklord intended to continue his outburst.

However, he quickly sensed that there was some crucial information in what was said.

His own guild was in Storm City.

How could a player guild in Storm City be invaded?

Only a very powerful NPC or one of the top players could possibly invade a top player's guild.

And John was indeed one of those top players.

"Did that intruder say his name? Did he mention what he wants to discuss with me?"

Darklord became slightly anxious, hastily asking the guild member outside.

"Lord Darklord, he didn't specify what he wanted to discuss. He only mentioned his name is John!"

The member of Darklord's guild relayed all the information they knew.

The moment the name 'John' was uttered, the door to Darklord's room was pushed open.

Darklord immediately grabbed the guild member who had answered him.

"Say it again, what's his name?"

"He said his name is John."

Darklord's actions caused even more panic among the guild members present.

They were terrified that Darklord, in his anger, might expel them from the guild.

Once Darklord confirmed that the person who had invaded his guild was John, he realized John was challenging him to a decisive battle.

He tossed the guild member he had grabbed aside.

"Go to the Dawn Guild and Shadowrealm Guild immediately! We need their help now!" Darklord spoke coldly and then headed straight to the guild hall.

In the guild hall, he saw the guild leader of the Blue Sea Guild, Blue Sea, arguing with his own deputy guild leader.

Upon seeing Darklord, Blue Sea finally showed a hint of a smile.

He spoke loudly to Darklord, "You've finally shown up. I thought you were going to keep hiding and avoid meeting me!"

The deputy guild leader of Darklord's guild, not fully understanding the situation, thought their argument had disturbed Darklord's rest.

He quickly explained to Darklord.

"Guild leader, I didn't anticipate our argument would disturb your rest. I've repeatedly explained to him that our guild will absolutely not accept their guild's challenge. But Blue Sea, the guild leader, refuses to give up. He insists on having a Guild Battle with us today. What should we do next?"

In addition to explaining the situation, the deputy guild leader passed the decision-making responsibility to Darklord.

Darklord quietly observed Blue Sea for a moment, puzzled why Blue Sea would collaborate with John.

John was just a solo player. As the guild leader of a top ten guild, did Blue Sea really need to cooperate with a solo player?

"I really don't understand why you would cooperate with John. You could perfectly collaborate with me. Your guild is one of the top ten, and so is mine. If we work together seamlessly, we could even defeat Adam's Genesis Guild. Don't you want to surpass Adam?"

Darklord, known for his arrogance, was not foolish.

He was somewhat aware of the ongoing rivalry between the Blue Sea Guild and the Genesis Guild.

He knew he needed to offer a sufficiently sincere proposition to win over Blue Sea Guild.

Helping them defeat the Genesis Guild seemed to him the most genuine offer he could make.

Blue Sea merely showed a faint smile, not immediately responding.

From his perspective, without John, he might have accepted the proposition Darklord had offered.

However, Blue Sea had already allied with John and knew about Darklord's collaboration with the mysterious forces.

Thus, naturally, he had nothing more to say to Darklord.

"Darklord, guild leader, I think there's no need for you to continue persuading. I don't have anything to discuss with you. Just accept the Guild Battle I've proposed," Blue Sea firmly replied.

The deputy guild leader of Darklord's guild, sensing the gravity of the situation, silently retreated to a safe position.

"Do you really think that with John's help, you can defeat our guild? Even if I accept your challenge now, your guild doesn't have enough top-tier players. Do you believe that just you and John can defeat our entire guild? Have you become delusional by spending too much time with John?"

Darklord hoped to pressure Blue Sea into a significant misjudgment, using bluster in an attempt to force Blue Sea to abandon the Guild Battle.

Blue Sea's expression remained unchanged, still wearing a light smile, he said to Darklord, "If you're so certain we will lose in this Guild Battle, why not just accept it? I advise you not to waste any more time. According to the rules of the Photonic Brain System, if you continuously refuse the Guild Battle, we can initiate it forcibly."

Having made his position unequivocally clear, Blue Sea left no room for Darklord to retreat.

Darklord, left with no other choice, had to steel himself to accept the challenge posed by Blue Sea and John.

Darklord, still hoping for more preparation time, directly addressed Blue Sea, "If you insist, then I can indeed accept your challenge. But I must have more preparation time, which the Photonic Brain System allows."

Darklord's request was valid, as the Photonic Brain System does allow the challenged guild to have additional preparation time.

Blue Sea had no objection and nodded, allowing Darklord to proceed with his preparations.

In Blue Sea's view, since the challenge had been accepted, no amount of preparation by the opposing side could alter the final outcome.

Although Darklord had previously received assistance from the powerful entities of the Mystery faction, they were now in Storm City, a stronghold of the Order Faction, where bosses from the Mystery and Dark Factions were unlikely to appear.

After agreeing on a time for the Guild Battle with Blue Sea, Darklord returned to his room.

There, he took out all the weapons in his room and meticulously began to select from them.

Darklord's room was filled with an array of precious weapons and valuable spell scrolls.

However, the problem he now faced was that most of these cherished weapons were likely ineffective against John.

The only weapon that could potentially threaten John was the Mysterious Wand. Yet, Darklord was faced with a dilemma: could the Mysterious Wand be used within the main city of the Order Faction?

Using a Mystery weapon within the Order Faction's stronghold would not only blow his cover as a member of the Order Faction, but his guild could also face expulsion from the faction.

After pondering for a while, Darklord seemed to have made a resolute decision.

He took out the Mysterious Wand and began to use a Mystery summoning spell.

On the outskirts of Storm City, in an inconspicuous forest, a dense black mist suddenly appeared.

This thick mist gradually coalesced into a humanoid form. In the instant it took shape, the dense fog swiftly moved towards Storm City.

Utilizing the power of the Mysterious Wand, Darklord summoned a Mystery Prophet.

His plan was to use the Mystery Prophet to create chaos in Storm City.

If he could take advantage of the confusion to eliminate John, that would be an even greater triumph.
