Chapter 492 492-The Battle for the Survival of the Naga
John and Nald collaborated, searching for a way to escape from the Abyssal Illusion.
At the same time, the people of the Naga Tribe were indeed facing a tremendous crisis.
The moment John disappeared, the Naga Queen sensed something was amiss.
She quickly realized that a large number of Mystery creatures were gathering around the Naga Tribe.
"We've been tricked! The sudden appearance of the Mystery Vanguard was to prevent John from providing us with any more help! It seems that within the Mystery faction, John is the strongest among us," the Naga Queen deduced.
After all, it seemed that the Mystery faction had always been targeting only John.
Although they had also attacked them, they had never deployed their strongest forces.
As soon as the Naga Queen finished speaking, a Naga guard rushed over in a panic.
He breathlessly reported to the queen.
"Your Majesty, a great number of monsters are attacking our defense lines outside! The strength of these creatures is too overwhelming; we can no longer hold them off."
The Naga Queen nodded, her face a mix of worry and confident composure.
"I understand. I will provide assistance as soon as possible! You just need to follow the plan we've previously devised for defense. Now, immediately send all the capable members of the Naga Tribe to the front lines."
After receiving the queen's orders, the Naga guard promptly took action.
Once the guard left, the queen turned her gaze to the others.
"I am very grateful for the help you have provided us in the past! Now, I must ask for your assistance once more. Duke Arsena, I hope you can forgive our Naga Tribe for any past offenses!"
The Naga Queen was well aware that the upcoming battle required the help of Duke Arsena. New n0vel chapters are published on
Therefore, she chose to apologize directly to Duke Arsena.
Duke Arsena solemnly accepted the queen's apology and said straightforwardly to the Naga Queen,
"As members of the Order Faction, we must help each other. You need not worry; I will definitely assist you in defense. Moreover, I will promptly notify Storm City to send more reinforcements. All the guards of Storm City are at your disposal to help the Naga Tribe."
The Naga Queen's explanation made Mystery Protector understand why she chose such a strategy for battle.
It also made him aware of the secret behind the Naga Tribe's strength.
The Naga Queen chose to reveal her tribe's secret because she felt the situation was extremely dire.
Without the full support of others, the Naga Tribe might face annihilation.
"In that case, I will commit myself fully to helping you defend this position! And since Duke Arsena has already promised reinforcements, Storm City will surely send aid. Once the reinforcements from Storm City arrive, our defensive pressure will be greatly reduced. Although the Mystery Vanguards are very powerful, we can at least temporarily restrain their actions. With so many Mystery creatures gathered together, many members of the Order Faction will surely be willing to help us. In my opinion, even the Sea God might personally intervene."
Mystery Protector's speculation was quite reasonable.
In fact, the Naga Queen had been waiting for the Sea God's personal intervention, as she believed that no other force could eliminate these Mystery creatures.
On the western defense line of the Naga Tribe, Duke Arsena and Shatras were doing their utmost to assist the Naga Tribe's guards in defense.
However, their efforts were not particularly effective, as neither of them was particularly skilled in dealing with the attack of the Mystery creatures.
"We must seek help from others. Duke Arsena, I don't think we can ensure a successful defense here on our own!"
Shatras, halfway through the battle, had already lost confidence.
She felt that she might not even be able to hold out until the reinforcements from Storm City, summoned by Duke Arsena, arrived.
Faced with Shatras's words, Duke Arsena was also very concerned.
However, as a Paladin who had been through many battles, he was not one to give up easily in the face of such a situation.
He responded to Shatras in a calm and reassuring tone.
"We should continue to fight! Even though our defense is extremely challenging, it seems that the Mystery creatures' attack isn't achieving great success either. If we can hold on a little longer, the reinforcements will arrive. And even if we can't wait until the reinforcements get here, we can count on the help of the Queen and Mystery Protector. I believe their strength is somewhat greater, and they might be able to deal with the Mystery creatures on the eastern front first. Then, they can free up resources to assist us."
Duke Arsena spoke with confidence and assurance.
Although Shatras still felt slightly worried, she agreed with Duke Arsena's judgment.
Deep down, she also hoped that she could successfully defend the western front and not disappoint the Queen.
"In that case, let's continue to hold on for a while! But, Duke Arsena, you must urge the reinforcements from Storm City to hurry. They need to arrive as soon as possible!"
