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

Chapter 466 Chapter466-Eliminating the Influence of Mystery

John exuded confidence in front of Adam and Blue Sea, who naturally did not question him, given his successful track record in previous endeavors.

It seemed unlikely that John would fail this time, and if he did, they had no alternative solutions.

The trio arrived at the inn within the Naga Faction, where the Naga Queen had prepared a spacious and comfortable room for them.

This would be their base for discussing and devising a plan to address the troubles caused by Mystery's power.

"I believe that these Nagas fell into madness not solely due to the influence of Mystery Saint. It's more likely that they were already in a fragile mental state. If you look at the information provided about these Nagas, you'll notice they were already harboring many negative emotions. Under such conditions, being influenced by Mystery's power could easily push them over the edge into madness," Adam observed, after reviewing the data provided by the Naga Queen.

He shared his assessment with John and Blue Sea, having formed his opinion based on the information at hand.

In the information provided by the Naga Faction, Adam noticed that the Nagas who had succumbed to madness were not particularly strong to begin with.

Moreover, they already possessed various flaws.

This led Adam to suspect that the Naga Queen might be deliberately making things difficult for them, doubting that she truly expected them to succeed.

While Adam voiced his thoughts, John remained calm, eyes closed as if deep in thought.

He didn't respond, which Adam and Blue Sea found somewhat odd.

Adam was about to probe further, but Blue Sea, sitting next to him, interrupted. Blue Sea gently nudged Adam's arm, signaling him to be quiet.

Adam, slightly annoyed by John's silence, was soon pulled out of the room by Blue Sea, who wanted to speak with him privately.

"Why did you pull me out of the room? Don't you think John is being too distracted right now? He's not focusing all his energy on solving the biggest problem we're facing.

If we can't resolve the issue of the Naga Faction members falling into madness, the Naga Queen will definitely use this as an excuse to make us pay a heavy price.

Yes, John is very powerful, capable of matching the Naga Queen. But we're just ordinary players, our strength isn't that great. Doesn't he consider the problems we're facing? Shouldn't he think more about his allies?"

Previously, Adam had always trusted John, mainly because of John's immense strength and the fact that John hadn't posed any threat to Adam.

However, after arriving at the Naga Faction, Adam's attitude had changed significantly.

He felt as if John was intentionally targeting him, making it easy for Adam to be dissatisfied with John's actions.

Blue Sea noticed Adam's unusual demeanor and wanted to carefully ask why he had undergone such a significant change in attitude.

"Weren't you always very trusting of John? I don't see anything wrong with John's actions this time. He successfully gained the Naga Queen's trust for us. Even if the quest given by the Naga Queen seems deliberately challenging, it also represents an opportunity for us to earn her trust through our efforts.

John must have his own methods. Right now, we just need to wait quietly. After all, John has more knowledge about Mystery Saint than we do – we haven't even seen Mystery Saint."

Blue Sea's persuasion did have some effect. Adam didn't continue to argue, but internally, he was dismissive of Blue Sea's words.

While Blue Sea might not have encountered Mystery Saint, Adam had. After seeing Mystery Saint, he felt that the power of Mystery was almost insurmountable.

"Maybe I'm just being too anxious. I'll face any unexpected situations calmly from now on. But you also need to join me in urging John to act! He can't just continue doing nothing."

Ultimately, Blue Sea agreed to Adam's request.

When they returned to the room, they planned to urge John to take action swiftly.

Before Adam and Blue Sea could voice their concerns, John opened his eyes, smiling, and spoke first.

"I know what you want to say; you wish for me to take action quickly. But there's no need to worry, as I've already found a solution to our problem."

Adam and Blue Sea exchanged glances, surprised that John had already figured out a way to tackle the challenge posed by the Naga Queen.

Had John been deep in thought all this time about how to solve the Queen's difficult task?

If that was the case, then perhaps Adam had indeed been a bit too anxious.

Without asking further, Blue Sea spoke up, "What method have you come up with? Can the two of us help you?"

John nodded and gently replied, "Certainly, both of you can help. In fact, without your assistance, I wouldn't be able to solve this problem on my own. You both understand that Mystery Saint is the embodiment of Mystery's power, inherently linked to Mystery itself. We just need to sever the connection between Mystery Saint and Mystery. Doing so will enable us to restore sanity to the members of the Naga Faction who have fallen into madness."

John's proposed solution sounded plausible to Adam and Blue Sea, but they felt it was something impossible to achieve.

Indeed, as John himself had pointed out, Mystery Saint is the embodiment of Mystery's power.

It seemed implausible that Mystery Saint could be severed from its connection to Mystery.

Although Adam and Blue Sea had their doubts, they didn't get a chance to express them as John quickly provided an answer, revealing what he had been pondering all along.

"We must rely on the Naga Faction's own strength to successfully block the influence of Mystery Saint's power on its members.

As you are well aware, there are many creations of the Power of Sea God within the Naga Faction. The creations of the Power of Sea God can counteract those of Mystery's power.

This is partly because the nature of the Mystery power and the Power of Sea God are somewhat similar, and partly because they belong to entirely different factions.

We can use the power of Sea God to temporarily shield against the influence of Mystery Saint.

If we can buy enough time, we can then use our own strength to cleanse the remnants of Mystery's influence from the Naga Faction members.

If we act quickly enough, I believe we can restore sanity to all affected members of the Naga Faction within two days. Even if we are not that fast, a week should be more than enough.

We need to find Shatras as soon as possible since the Naga Queen mentioned that she would provide us with substantial assistance."

John detailed his plan thoroughly.

Adam and Blue Sea were both very satisfied with it, believing firmly that it would be successful.

Adam promptly sought out Shatras and spoke to her straightforwardly: "We need a large quantity of Ocean Gems. The power of the Sea God in these gems must be very strong for our plan to work.

If you can't provide these materials, our plan won't succeed. And if that happens, the Queen won't blame us; she'll blame you."

To Shatras, Adam's request seemed unreasonable.

She felt she was only supposed to offer them limited assistance. Ocean Gems, even for the Naga Faction, were extremely precious resources.

Reacting instinctively, Shatras refused: "Her Majesty indeed asked me to assist you, but that's only in case you encounter difficulties.

Ocean Gems are valuable, and our Naga Faction will not provide many to you.

At least, you should prove to me that Ocean Gems can indeed solve the madness afflicting our Faction's members. Why should I waste such precious Ocean Gems otherwise?"
