Mystic Calling：Stone of Glory-Chapter 95: Divine Storm!

"H-how is this possible?!"

Witnessing this scene, even Balzareth, the proud and arrogant Infernal Pit Lord, couldn’t help but widen his eyes in shock, his face turning pale.

His expression was filled with disbelief.

But it wasn’t just him. Ethan, Elynn, and even Seraphina were all equally stunned and shaken. "What...what is this?"

Whoosh! Whoosh! Whoosh!

In the next instant, their gazes simultaneously shot upward, toward the sky above the massive forest.

There, floating effortlessly in mid-air, stood a dwarf dressed in luxurious magical robes.

Around him shimmered countless magical particles, glittering like stars in the night sky, each radiating an overwhelming energy powerful enough to make even legendary beings tremble.

In his hand, he held a scepter several times taller than himself. Even from afar, just his silhouette alone exuded an aura of dominance and majesty.

He looked like a ruler of the heavens themselves...

"...Ci—Cicero?"

Ethan stared blankly for a moment, then his face lit up with joy.

The dwarf figure—Cicero—turned around immediately, flashing Ethan a bright, confident smile.

"Master, it’s me!"

Then, tapping his enormous scepter lightly against the air, Cicero shouted, "Seraphina, snap out of it! Now’s your chance!"

Rumble!

As soon as his words fell, the ground beneath Balzareth’s feet began to quake violently. Another ancient, massive forest erupted from the earth, growing at an astonishing speed.

Branches, vines, and even flowers and grass surged upward as if alive, wrapping around Balzareth’s massive body, binding him tightly in place. He struggled fiercely but couldn’t move an inch!

"ROAR!"

Seraphina shook herself awake, letting out a furious roar.

Buzz!

Her eyes began to glow faintly with a blood-red hue, and a terrifying, berserk energy started swirling around her body.

This violent force became visible to the naked eye, rippling outward like waves, expanding rapidly and covering a larger and larger area.

This was Seraphina’s innate war talent—Berserk!

"ROOOAAARRRR!"

With an earth-shattering cry, Seraphina launched herself into the sky, wings spread wide, charging straight toward the immobilized Balzareth!

BOOM!

In Seraphina’s claws, the Level Three Strategic Artifact—Hellcrusher Maul—appeared once again, blazing fiercely with draconic flames that wrapped around it.

Then, in an instant, the Hellcrusher Maul transformed into a terrifying dragon claw, shimmering with dark green and violet-gold hues. The air itself trembled violently as the claw tore through space, slamming down with unstoppable force!

BANG!

Balzareth was smashed into the ground as if struck by a massive cannonball, his enormous body pinned helplessly to the earth. The terrifying dragon claw pierced straight through him, nailing him firmly in place.

At the same moment, the entire Doom Mountains shook violently, countless cracks spreading rapidly across the landscape—as if Seraphina’s strike had shattered the very mountains themselves!

Just then, Ethan, still somewhat dazed, heard the familiar system notification ringing clearly in his ears:

"Congratulations, Player Valkarion! Your heroes Seraphina and Cicero have successfully slain Infernal Lord Balzareth, thwarted the Infernal Legions’ plans, and completed the S-Rank storyline quest—Infernal Outpost Battle!"

"Congratulations, Player Valkarion, for completing the S-Rank storyline quest—Infernal Outpost Battle! Quest rewards will be calculated in half an hour or immediately after all Infernal Legion forces have been eliminated..."

"It’s finally over?"

Ethan shivered with excitement, quickly turning toward Seraphina and Cicero. "Seraphina, Cicero! Don’t let the remaining Infernal troops escape—finish them off!"

"As you command..."

Before Seraphina could finish speaking, a gentle, melodic voice suddenly echoed through the air, sweet and clear like a breeze through a quiet valley.

"Master, Brother Cicero, Sister Seraphina—please, allow me to handle the rest."

Ethan turned in surprise toward the source of the voice.

There, floating gracefully in midair, stood a girl who appeared no older than sixteen or seventeen. She wore a flowing white dress, a delicate wreath of flowers atop her head, and her bare feet hovered lightly above the ground. Her face shone with a radiant, pure, and sunny smile.

Around her slender figure, dazzling particles of pure white light and crackling lightning danced continuously, radiating an overwhelming magical aura—an aura so powerful it rivaled even that of the fallen Infernal Lord Balzareth himself!

"Elyra..." Ethan smiled warmly, nodding in approval. "Alright, they’re all yours."

"Thank you, Master!" Elyra bowed sweetly toward Ethan, then turned gracefully toward the battered remnants of the Infernal Legions. She gently raised a finger to her lips, softly whispering a single word.

Instantly, a terrifying wave of lightning and holy magic surged outward like a tidal wave, engulfing everything in its path!

Buzz!

As soon as the magic appeared, nearly every remaining Infernal soldier froze in place. Lightning magic paralyzed their bodies, while holy magic suppressed their very souls, leaving them completely immobilized—as if bound by an invisible force.

At that moment, Elyra’s gentle voice rang out once more, clear and powerful:

"Divine Storm!"

BOOM!

Holy light crashed down, thunder roaring!

In an instant, it felt like a comet smashing into the earth. A terrifying surge of magical energy blasted straight toward the immobilized Infernal Legions! The next second, a deafening explosion erupted, lightning shrieked, and holy radiance burst forth, blinding Ethan with a dazzling white flash so intense he couldn’t even open his eyes.

At the same time, Ethan’s ears were bombarded by a rapid-fire series of system notifications ringing nonstop!

"Congratulations! Your hero Elyra has successfully completed the S-level storyline quest—’Infernal Outpost Battle’ Final Phase! Successfully eliminated 500/500 Tier 8 Two-Horned Demon Kings!"

"Congratulations! Your hero Elyra has successfully completed the S-level storyline quest—’Infernal Outpost Battle’ Final Phase! Successfully eliminated 200/200 Tier 9 Inferno Pit Fiends!"

"Congratulations! Your hero Elyra has successfully completed the S-level storyline quest—’Infernal Outpost Battle’ Final Phase! Successfully eliminated 100/100 Tier 10 Inferno Pit Lords!"

"Final Phase Quest Rating: SSS!"

"S-level storyline quest—’Infernal Outpost Battle’ rewards are now being calculated. Estimated processing time: 30 minutes. Please wait patiently."

...

Gulp~

Hearing these notifications, Ethan shivered involuntarily, swallowing hard several times.

"Wait...it’s already over? Just like that?"

Ethan muttered in disbelief. As the blinding holy light faded away, he glanced down at the battlefield in the Doom Mountains. All he saw were mountains of bones piled high, stretching endlessly—there wasn’t a single living enemy left!

Even more shocking, the area where the Divine Storm had erupted had literally sunk about a hundred feet deep, leaving a massive crater spanning tens of thousands of feet...

Total wipeout!

Instant kill!

The battle ended in a single second!

"God-tier mages really are something else..." Ethan murmured, his lips twitching slightly. He then turned toward Cicero, Seraphina, and Elyra, who had just flown back to his side, smiling warmly. "You guys did amazing. Thanks for your hard work!"

Pausing briefly, Ethan turned to Elynn and added with a gentle smile, "You too, Elynn. You all did great."

"It’s our honor!" Elynn immediately bowed her head respectfully, without hesitation.

Seeing this, Elyra, Cicero, and Seraphina also bowed deeply toward Ethan, echoing Elynn’s words with sincerity and seriousness. "Elynn’s right. Fighting for you is our greatest honor, Master!"

"Alright, alright, enough formalities," Ethan chuckled, shaking his head lightly. He then turned his gaze toward Cicero and Elyra. "Cicero, Elyra, let me see how much you’ve grown after reaching adulthood."

He felt genuinely stunned from the bottom of his heart!

Defense: 121 (175)

Spell Power: 172 (176)

Cicero had basically become a perfect hybrid—equally powerful in physical combat and magical attacks! He could dominate in close-range melee and unleash devastating spells from afar. He practically had no weaknesses left. This wasn’t just a top-tier hero; this was beyond god-tier!

On top of that, nearly all of Cicero’s childhood talents had upgraded to Level 2. He even gained new talents like Green Dragon Overlord and Sacred Realm, similar to Seraphina’s!

This undoubtedly pushed his already insane power and badassery to an unprecedented new height!

And perhaps precisely because of these massive improvements...

Cicero’s overall system evaluation had also changed. Previously rated as a C-grade Crimson Ultimate hero, he had now risen to a B-grade Crimson Ultimate hero!

Even though it was just a single grade difference...

This was Crimson Ultimate we were talking about! Even a small grade difference among Crimson Ultimate heroes could sometimes mean a massive leap in actual strength...
