Chapter 404
The smoke soon cleared, revealing the wreckage of what was formerly a lively encampment. Hundreds of people had been killed by Gunner's attack, whereas all the Master and Grandmaster targets had managed to protect their lives.
They looked at the trio who were radiating so much power and energy that their hearts trembled. The kind of powers Darius, Gunner, and Xela possessed after allocating those points was not a joke at all.
It wasn't just the stats. It was mostly their skills where Darius had upgraded most of them.

Darius's power had grown by amounts that could not be easily fathomed. As he hovered in the air, he gazed at the over 100 Grandmasters and more than 20,000 Masters that stood there with their mouths agape.
With a cruel smile reminiscent of his younger days, Darius decided to test out his increased power with the very 'willing targets before him. He shot out his favorite and go-to spell, Lightning Bolt, aiming at a Master mage standing nearby.
When the fellow saw the bolt rush toward shim, he instantly paled. His natural magical barrier appeared, which had three layers belonging to three different elements.
After each stage up, a mage would congeal another elemental shield that worked passively.
According to Supreme System rules, each shield offered a mage 10% magical resistance, which amounted to 30% when one hit the Master stage and 40% once one became a Grandmaster.
No matter how powerful the spell one hit them with, unless it was part of an element that was antithetical to the ones used on one or all of the shields, in which the advantage would turn on its head, it would greatly decrease in power.
The fellow had a Fire, Wind, and Earth shield, which was quite a good array for resisting Lightning, with Earth even suppressing the Lightning element greatly. The Master mage also had equipment on his body that under the Supreme System equaled 25 points of resistance.
However, the bolt pierced through all the shields and turned him into ash instantly. It couldn't be helped, after calculations, Darius would have dealt raw damage of 216,000, even after being reduced by 30% it totaled 151,200 points.
After being divided by the amount of Resistance the fellow had, that was over 6,000 points of damage! While a Master fighter might be able to suffer such a loss, mages were not exactly known for focusing on their physical stats.
His HP had been less than 4,000, and that was even high for mages. Those who had encircled Andrato back in the day had less than 1,500 HP, but this particular fellow had hailed from a stronger empire and had not been entirely human, blessing him with better stats.
It wasn't just Darius who was shocked speechless, but his two Branded Servants as well as all those who stood below. They could not believe their eyes, that a late-stage Master had been wiped out so easily in the field which he was strongest in, against an element he was supposed to have an advantage over.
Gunner's feat was understandable for the trio, for they knew that his level 100 Earth's Guardian would boost his power to insane levels, but for Darius to be able to achieve the same told them just how much more powerful they had become.
Though it was obviously not enough to one-shot Grandmasters, it still put them above most Masters! After all, while mages and their equivalent might have magic defense and resistance, the physical fighters did not!
Without equipment that offered them resistance, they would have to swallow all that raw damage of 216,000!
