Shatras's barrage of questions did not intimidate John; instead, he saw it as an opportunity to communicate effectively with the Naga Faction. 

"We have no ill intentions towards your Naga Faction. Our only wish is to cooperate with you to defend against a potential attack from the Mystery Faction."

John's response shocked both Blue Sea and Adam. 

In their view, this admission seemed likely to plunge them into danger. 

They were aware of the possibility that the Naga Faction might have already collaborated with the Mystery Faction. 

If this were true, the Naga Faction might choose to attack immediately upon hearing John's statement.

John, however, did not seem to consider the reaction of his companions. 

He mentioned the Mystery Faction deliberately to exert pressure on the Naga Faction. 

Regardless of any covert betrayal, the Naga Faction was still officially part of the Order Faction and would not easily admit any treachery.

John's strategic approach indicated his understanding of the complex dynamics at play and his readiness to navigate these potentially treacherous waters.

Confronted with John's response, Shatras was naturally skeptical. 

She believed that John and his companions had destroyed the seal at the entrance of the Naga Faction as a form of intimidation.

Shatras raised her wand, her tone becoming even more severe as she spoke with a threatening edge. 

"Stop this nonsense! Whether you are here to cooperate or to confront us is for us to decide. Right now, you just need to tell me how you broke the seal at the entrance. If you don't answer my question, don't blame me for being inhospitable. As a powerful Legend Magus, I alone have enough power to completely annihilate you! I am the pride of the Naga Faction and its strongest Nagamagus!"

As Shatras spoke these words, her tone was filled with arrogance. 

As the only Legend Magus in the history of the Naga Faction, she believed she had sufficient strength to face any enemy.

Faced with such a situation, John had no choice but to truthfully explain how he had breached the seal at the entrance of the Naga Faction. 

After all, he did not wish to antagonize another Legend Magus. 

Although John believed he could likely defeat Shatras, a direct confrontation would make it difficult to deescalate the situation later.

"I didn't use any special method. I simply used my own attack to dissolve the seal at the entrance," John revealed the true method he had used to break the seal. 

However, Shatras clearly did not believe him. 

Convinced that John was still lying, she decided not to waste any more time and prepared to launch an attack.

"Talking to you is a waste of my time! If you really managed to dissolve the entrance seal with your own strength, then you should be able to fight me on equal terms!" 

As soon as Shatras finished speaking, her wand emitted a powerful life force. 

Around the wand, ghost shadows of various marine creatures began to appear, showcasing the immense power she wielded.

As the ghost shadows of marine creatures converged, they formed a massive sea dragon, which immediately charged towards John at high speed. 

The Naga guards around Shatras skillfully dispersed to the sides, knowing well that during a battle between Legend Magi, they needed to stay in a safe position.

The power of a Legend Magus is immense, and their spells can be so overwhelmingly powerful that even those not targeted by the Magus could be affected.

Adam and Blue Sea also wisely chose to move aside. 

They were acutely aware that they were not qualified to withstand an attack from a Legend Magus. 

They were also curious to assess the strength of this Legend Magus. 

If her power surpassed John's, they would need to swiftly leave the Naga Faction. 

However, if she was not as strong as John, they might not need to worry as much when facing the Naga Queen.

Confronted with the swiftly approaching sea dragon, John stood still, silently activating [Abyssal Prison]. 

The effect of Abyssal Prison sealed the surrounding seawater, creating a formidable defense around John.

The sealed seawater formed a sturdy barrier that successfully blocked the sea dragon's attack, inflicting serious damage on the creature summoned by Shatras. 

Faced with the failure of her sea dragon's assault, Shatras looked incredibly surprised. 

She hadn't expected her opponent to be capable of withstanding such an attack.

"I admit I underestimated you!" Shatras exclaimed. 

"Your strength is indeed greater than any of the enemies I've faced before. But if you think this is enough to defeat me, you are gravely mistaken. Now, I will show you the true power of a Legend Magus!"

Shatras threw her wand onto the ground, where it transformed into a beam of green light that enveloped her. 

Under the influence of this light, her figure grew immensely, and a formidable life force and the power of the Sea God began to emanate from her.

"Now witness the real strength of a Legend Magus!" 

Shatras declared, stretching out her palms. Powerful ocean spells flickered in her hands, enhanced by the power of life magic.

John felt a sense of reluctance facing Shatras's actions. 

He had no desire to fight her, as he could sense no trace of Mystery power in her, which made her not a direct threat in his view. 

However, the escalating situation was pushing him into a confrontation he had hoped to avoid.

John's adversaries were solely the Dark Faction and Mystery Faction; this Legend Magus of the Naga Faction was likely to be an ally in his upcoming battles.

"I really do not want to continue fighting with you. I truly bear no ill will towards you, but given the circumstances, it seems I must defeat you directly," John said reluctantly, preparing to engage in full combat. 

He unleashed the power of spatial binding around him, directing it swiftly towards Shatras.

Shatras immediately felt the immense force of the space seal, astonished at John's incredible mastery over such powerful spatial magic. 

To her, the presence of dark power within this space seal further confirmed her belief that John had come to attack the Naga Faction.

"I will not let you threaten the safety of the Naga Faction! The powerful spells of a Legend Magus can definitely turn the tide of battle!" she declared, fully aware that her time was running out. 

John's use of Abyssal Prison was highly effective, and if Shatras didn't use her most powerful spells soon, she might lose the opportunity to cast any more spells at all. 

Determined, she resolved to use her strongest skill.

The immense powers of the Sea God and life force converged, and Shatras channeled all her energy into a magical scroll. 

This scroll absorbed all her power and, in a fleeting moment, appeared beside John.

lightsΝοvel John could sense the formidable power within the scroll. 

Although he could withstand such an attack due to his level and equipment advantages, he was mindful of other potential threats that might arise. 

He needed to ensure he remained in optimal condition for whatever came next.

Choosing to dodge rather than confront, John used a blink ability to evade the scroll and swiftly moved close to Shatras, once again deploying [Abyssal Prison]. 

This tactic was not John's usual approach. 

Typically, in combat, he would opt for [Divine Blade] combined with [STRIKE], two Divine Skills that could severely injure or even incapacitate a Legend Magus like Shatras.

However, given that Shatras was a Legend Magus of the Naga Faction and a potential ally, John refrained from using such aggressive tactics. 

His goal was not to harm her grievously but to demonstrate the significant gap in their strengths, hoping that this realization would bring clarity to their encounter.
