Chapter 240 Never Back Down
Although the mysterious man was in trouble under the joint attack of everyone, the dark aura emanating from him became stronger and stronger, as if he was making his last struggle.
Shen Mo wiped the blood from the corner of his mouth, and held the magic weapon tightly again, ready to launch a new round of charge. Lin Yuwei's magic weapon was shining, her eyes were full of determination, and she was chanting, casting spells to enhance strength and defense for everyone.
Qingfeng waved his sword and shouted loudly: "Brothers, success or failure depends on this, follow me!" The soldiers responded in unison, their morale boosted, and they followed Qingfeng and rushed towards the mysterious man.
The female general commanded the troops in an orderly manner in the rear, deploying troops to ensure the order and continuity of the attack.
Su Yao led the logistics personnel and shuttled across the battlefield at great risk, rescuing wounded soldiers and providing continuous support to the front line.
The mysterious man roared, and the dark power swept around like a huge wave, and many soldiers were knocked to the ground by this force.
"Don't retreat!" Shen Mo shouted loudly, and he led the way and rushed forward to meet the dark power. The artifact collided with the dark power, emitting a dazzling light and a huge sound.
The magician's staff glowed brightly, and he kept chanting spells, with powerful magical rays shooting at the mysterious man. Under this powerful attack, the mysterious man's steps began to become a little messy.
"Right now, everyone work harder!" Lin Yuwei shouted.
Everyone gritted their teeth and poured all their strength into this round of attack. The mysterious man's defense gradually showed flaws, Shen Mo saw the right moment, swung the magic weapon, and cut the mysterious man's arm.
The mysterious man screamed, and the dark power suddenly weakened a little.
"Keep attacking!" Qingfeng shouted.
The soldiers charged again and engaged in close combat with the mysterious man.
However, the mysterious man was powerful after all. He quickly regained his footing and launched a more fierce counterattack.
Blood was splattered on the battlefield, and both sides suffered heavy casualties. But Shen Mo and his men had no intention of retreating, and their faith in their hearts supported them to continue fighting.
"We can't lose!" This was the only thought in Shen Mo's mind.
The mysterious man seemed to have sensed the strong will of Shen Mo and the others, and a hint of hesitation flashed in his eyes.
At this moment, Lin Yuwei suddenly discovered a fatal weakness of the mysterious man.
"Shen Mo, attack his chest!" Lin Yuwei shouted loudly.
Shen Mo did not hesitate, and used all his strength to stab the mysterious man in the chest with the weapon. The mysterious man wanted to dodge, but it was too late.
The artifact pierced into the mysterious man's chest, and the dark power dissipated instantly. The mysterious man widened his eyes and slowly fell down.
"We did it!" the soldiers cheered.
But Shen Mo and others had no time to celebrate, because the enemy attacked more frantically after losing the support of the mysterious man.
"Don't relax, keep fighting!" the female general shouted.
Shen Mo led the soldiers into battle with the enemy again.
The battle lasted for a long time, and both sides were exhausted. However, Shen Mo and his companions gradually gained the upper hand with their tenacious will and unyielding spirit.
The enemy troops began to collapse and fled in all directions.
"Chase!" Shen Mo shouted.
The soldiers pursued the enemy without giving them any chance to catch their breath.
Under the afterglow of the setting sun, the battlefield finally returned to calm. Shen Mo and the others looked at the corpses scattered all over the ground and the battlefield filled with smoke, feeling mixed emotions.
"Although we won, the price we paid was too high." Su Yao looked at the injured soldiers and couldn't help shedding tears.
Shen Mo comforted him: "But we guarded our homeland and protected our loved ones. It's all worth it."
The magician said: "This victory is only temporary. The dark forces may come back again. We must be better prepared."
Everyone nodded.
They began to clean up the battlefield and treat the wounded.
In the following days, Shen Mo and others rested and strengthened the fortifications while also training new recruits in preparation for possible challenges in the future.
One day, Shen Mo was patrolling on the city wall when he suddenly saw a figure walking towards them in the distance.
"Who is that?" Shen Mo said vigilantly.
Everyone picked up their weapons and prepared to deal with possible dangers.
As the figure got closer, Shen Mo and others were surprised to find that it turned out to be an old man in a white robe.
The old man walked to the city gate and said, "I have brought important news."
Shen Mo opened the city gate and let the old man in.
"What news?" Shen Mo asked.
The old man looked at Shen Mo and the others, and said slowly: "In a distant place, a more powerful dark force is rising..."
