Chapter 303 Respite and Crisis
Chapter 303 Respite and Crisis
The dark forces were repelled, and the battlefield was filled with the joy of victory and sighs of exhaustion. Soldiers lay on the ground in all directions, gasping for breath, their faces and bodies covered in blood and dust, but their eyes shone with the relief and determination of surviving the catastrophe.
Shen Mo held on to his body and walked slowly in the ruins, checking the soldiers' injuries. Su Yao led a group of women who were busy shuttling between them, bandaging the wounded and handing them water.
"Shen Mo, we suffered heavy losses this time." Qingfeng limped over with a hint of heaviness in his voice.
Shen Mo looked at the setting sun in the distance and nodded slightly: "But we held on, this is hope."
The female general also came over, her armor badly damaged: "What should we do next? We must recover as soon as possible."
Shen Mo pondered for a moment: "Let everyone rest first, and rebuilding our homeland should also be put on the agenda."
Lin Yuwei sat aside, her face pale as paper due to excessive consumption of magic power. "I have to hurry up and recover my magic power in case the dark power attacks again."
In the following days, the village was full of busy figures. Houses were slowly being rebuilt, farmland was being reclaimed, and the wounded soldiers gradually recovered under the careful care of Su Yao and others.
However, the peaceful days did not last long. One day, a scout ran back to the village in a hurry.
"Oh no, we found some strange signs at the border. They might be the remnants of dark forces." The scout said, panting.
Shen Mo and the others' nerves became tense again.
"Gather everyone and prepare for possible dangers." Shen Mo said decisively.
Everyone gathered quickly with serious expressions.
"We can't take it lightly this time. Perhaps this is a new round of conspiracy by dark forces." said the female general.
Qingfeng clenched the sword in his hand: "No matter what conspiracy he has, we are not afraid!"
Lin Yuwei said: "Everyone should be cautious and find out the situation before making any decision."
So Shen Mo led a team of elite soldiers and followed the scouts to the border.
After arriving at the border, they found some traces of dark magic. The surrounding trees were withered and the land had turned dark.
"This doesn't look like an ordinary dark force." Shen Mo frowned.
Just then, a gust of cold wind blew by, and there seemed to be a strange laugh in the wind.
"Who?" Qingfeng shouted loudly.
But the only answer he got was the sound of the wind.
Shen Mo signaled everyone to move forward carefully, and suddenly, a dark cave appeared in front of them.
"What is this place?" asked a soldier.
Shen Mo looked at the cave, and a bad feeling welled up in his heart: "No matter what it is, we have to go in and take a look."
The crowd walked into the cave carefully, which was filled with a pungent smell. There were strange lights flickering on the walls of the cave, as if telling some evil secret.
As they walked, they came to a spacious hall. In the center of the hall was a huge magic circle engraved with complex runes.
"What kind of magic circle is this?" Lin Yuwei walked forward and observed it carefully.
At this moment, the magic circle suddenly activated, and a black light shot up into the sky.
"Not good, retreat quickly!" Shen Mo shouted.
But it was too late. The black light enveloped them and they lost consciousness instantly...
