The green light extended forward, instantly surrounding Mephisto and Veronica, seemingly about to engulf them. But unexpectedly, the moment the green light reached the hundred-foot radius centered on the Grey Sword Saint's body, it halted, unable to advance further.

"What's going on?" Faina, hiding under her cloak, asked in confusion, "How... How can he resist the influence of the elements from such a distance? Could it be that his strength is comparable to Andesa's?"
