Chapter 411 411-The Mysterious Wand
In the deep jungles north of Karen Port, Darklord was leading his guild members in a frantic excavation within a cave.
He stood at the entrance of the cave, looking in the direction of Karen Port with a worried expression.
He knew that Ethereal Seer was engaged in battle with John there.
If Ethereal Seer couldn't defeat John, Darklord was aware that John would soon come looking for him.
"You bunch of useless fools! Haven't you found it yet?!"
Darklord bellowed impatiently. "Ethereal Seer told me that the treasure is inside this cave and shouldn't take long to find!"
As time passed, Darklord's patience wore thin, and he began to loudly berate his subordinates.
The members he brought this time all possessed the talent for earth element manipulation, which should have expedited the discovery of the treasure's location.
However, what Darklord couldn't have anticipated was that, even after two hours of digging, they still hadn't uncovered the artifact mentioned by the prophet.
The vice guild leader of Darklord's guild, sweating profusely, tried to explain why they hadn't completed the quest assigned by Darklord.
"Guild leader, we have indeed exerted our utmost effort. However, beneath the cave lies extremely solid granite, seemingly reinforced by magic. We simply can't reach the deepest part of the cave immediately."
Clearly, this explanation was not acceptable to Darklord. In a fit of rage, he kicked the vice guild leader to the ground.
"Don't give me such excuses! I've given you ample funds to recruit the people I need. Look at the incompetents behind you! Are any of them the capable individuals I require? Do you understand how important this artifact is to me? If you can't find it soon, I'll kick you out of the guild. And I'll ensure your account is reduced to level zero, just like Kingserp's!"
After issuing this severe threat, the vice guild leader of Darklord's guild was naturally panicked.
He quickly got up and rushed to urge those inside the cave to accelerate their digging.
Having vented his anger, Darklord momentarily calmed down.
He looked in the direction of Karen Port again, his expression betraying a hint of concern.
As Darklord's gaze turned towards Karen Port, a violent flash of light erupted from the location, its intensity perceptible even from his distant vantage point.
The formidable power of a fire magic spell was unmistakable.
"Damn it! John has become so powerful! If only I had been more cautious earlier, I could have prevented him from turning the tables!"
Darklord deeply regretted not having completely eliminated John before.
If he had been more decisive back then, perhaps John wouldn't have had the chance to make such a comeback.
What Darklord didn't realize was that from the moment John entered the Godslayer Temple, he was destined to be unbeatable.
After that, it was only natural for John to become one of the top players in the Godslayer game and have the capability to seek revenge against Darklord.
While Darklord was filled with regret, he didn't dwell solely on the past. Despite being a villain, he was not a fool.
Darklord was more concerned about whether he could obtain the artifact mentioned by Ethereal Seer.
"Guild leader! We've found the artifact! Is this what you were looking for?!"
The vice guild leader's voice echoed from the depths of the cave.
A hint of a smile finally appeared on Darklord's face, and he quickly activated a speed boost.
In just a second, under the effect of the sprint, he reached the deepest part of the cave.
What lay before Darklord and his men was an ancient-looking wooden box.
Despite its primitive appearance, Darklord could sense a tremendous power emanating from within the box.
"You two, open that box," Darklord instructed two of his nearby men.
The two players hesitated, visibly apprehensive.
Although their levels weren't high and they weren't skilled in combat, they could feel a potent force within the box as they unearthed it, indicating that something extremely powerful lay inside.
The hesitation of the two players was a clear indication that opening the box would likely entail significant risks.
"What are you waiting for? Didn't you hear my order?"
Darklord's impatience was evident, though he was well aware that these players were just mercenaries hired with gold coins and not his loyal guild members.
Turning his gaze to the vice guild leader of his own guild, Darklord commanded, "Since the others are unwilling, you open the box."
The vice guild leader, who had been a mere spectator until now, was taken aback by this sudden order.
Despite his apprehension, he saw no way out and slowly approached the box.
As Darklord urged him on from behind, the vice guild leader tentatively reached out towards the box.
Just as his trembling hand made contact with the box, a violent tremor shook the area around Karen Port.
The cave began to crumble, with earth and stones falling all around, raising fears that the cave might collapse at any moment.
Startled by this sudden disturbance, the vice guild leader quickly withdrew his hand, no longer daring to touch the box.
"Fools, all of you! I really don't know what use you are to me!"
Darklord knew all too well that no matter how much he threatened, the other players would not dare to open the box for him.
Resigned to his fate and driven by his desire to obtain the artifact mentioned by Ethereal Seer, Darklord decided to open the box himself.
After a deep breath, he prepared his strongest defensive items and readied his most powerful defensive skills.
With all preparations complete, Darklord opened the wooden box deep within the cave.
As the lid lifted, a torrent of dark fog erupted from the box.
Darklord was immediately engulfed in the dark fog.
The mercenaries around him were swiftly killed by the fog's lethal embrace.
As the fog gradually dissipated, Darklord was the only one left standing in the cave.
His condition was far from ideal. Even as a top player at level 175, he had exhausted all his defensive items to withstand the damage caused by the dark fog.
Every item in Darklord's possession was now on cooldown.
If he encountered any more danger, he would have no means of escape.
However, Darklord's sacrifices proved worthwhile.
After the dark fog cleared, he saw a wand lying quietly inside the box, emitting a silvery-white glow.
[Mysterious Wand (God-level Wand)]
[Weapon Description: The most powerful wand once possessed by Enigmatic Saint. The entire wand was born from Mystery and will return to Mystery. Enigmatic Saint still remembers the scene when he first saw this wand.]

5 - Return to Mystery: The wielder can fully transform into Dark fog, and in this form, can use all their original skills.]
Darklord quickly read through the description of the Mysterious Wand.
The moment he finished, he felt that his efforts had finally paid off many times over.
Darklord had followed Ethereal Seer's instructions to betray Adam and set up an ambush for John at Karen Port, all for the sake of obtaining this Mysterious Wand as promised by Ethereal Seer.
With this wand in his possession, Darklord no longer needed to worry about being less powerful than John.
Even though his level might still be lower than John's, and his array of skills not as potent, possessing the Mysterious Wand would give him an upper hand in any confrontation with John.
Darklord, envisioning the scene of defeating John, muttered to himself in anticipation.
"John, your arrogance won't last much longer! Once I recover and master the use of the Mysterious Wand, I'll have my revenge! I can hardly wait to see the look of surprise on your face!"
