Beautiful girl travels through time and space to become a princess

Chapter 228 Mystery in the Dark

The night enveloped the entire village, and the silence was eerie. Shen Mo and the others quietly stood at their respective positions, highly focused, and did not dare to slack off.

Time passed by minute by minute, and just when everyone was feeling a little tired, an eerie wind suddenly blew by, bringing a chill with it.

"Here it comes!" Shen Mo's heart tightened and he held the weapon in his hand tightly.

In the darkness, some vague figures appeared and disappeared, accompanied by low roars.

Lin Yuwei used a magic weapon to illuminate the front, and the figures gradually became clear. They turned out to be a group of monsters with distorted shapes, and their eyes emitted a strange red light.

"Prepare for battle!" the female general shouted in a low voice.

The soldiers raised their weapons and stood ready for battle.

The monsters rushed towards them with their fangs and claws bared. Shen Mo rushed forward first, swung the magic weapon, a ray of light flashed, and several monsters fell down instantly.

Qingfeng was not to be outdone. His sword shuttled through the darkness like lightning, and every attack accurately hit the monster's vital points.

Lin Yuwei continued to cast spells in the rear to provide support and protection for everyone, while Su Yao was nervously watching the situation on the battlefield, ready to help the injured soldiers at any time.

The battle was extremely fierce. Although the monsters kept falling, their numbers did not seem to decrease.

"This is not a solution. We have to find out where they come from!" Shen Mo said loudly.

While the female general was fighting hard against the enemy, she responded: "Everyone, pay attention to your surroundings and see if there are any clues!"

Just then, Qingfeng discovered a strange phenomenon. Every time they killed a group of monsters, another group would emerge from a cave not far away.

"That cave may be the key!" Qingfeng shouted.

Shen Mo glanced in the direction of the cave: "Qingfeng, come with me to take a look. Female General, you lead the others to continue the resistance here!"

After saying that, Shen Mo and Qing Feng rushed towards the cave.

As we approached the cave, a strong dark aura hit us in the face.

"Be careful!" Shen Mo reminded.

They walked cautiously into the cave, which was filled with thick fog that blurred their vision.

Suddenly, a huge monster jumped out of the fog and opened its bloody mouth.

Shen Mo and Qing Feng reacted quickly and moved to the sides respectively.

Qingfeng took the opportunity to stab the monster's leg with a sword. The monster roared in pain.

Shen Mo took the opportunity to activate the power of the artifact. A strong light hit the monster's head, and the monster fell to the ground with a bang.

As they continued to go deeper into the cave, they found that the walls were covered with strange symbols and patterns.

"These may be magic circles that control monsters." Qingfeng said.

Shen Mo observed these symbols carefully: "We must destroy them!"

Just as they were about to take action, a low chanting sound came from deep in the cave.

"Someone is controlling all this!" Shen Mo said.

They quickened their pace and headed towards the source of the sound.

Finally, at the deepest part of the cave, they saw a man in black robe standing in front of a huge magic circle, muttering something.

"Stop!" Shen Mo shouted.

The man in black robe turned his head and revealed a ferocious face: "You are too late, the ceremony is about to be completed!"

As he spoke, he quickened the speed of his chanting, and the light of the magic circle became stronger and stronger.

Shen Mo and Qing Feng rushed forward without hesitation and engaged in a desperate fight with the man in black robe.

The black-robed man's magic was very powerful, and for a moment, Shen Mo and Qingfeng were in trouble.

But they did not give up. They cooperated with each other and looked for the flaws of the man in black robe.

Finally, Qingfeng discovered a loophole in the black-robed man's defense and stabbed his arm with a sword.

The man in black robe screamed, and the spell paused briefly.

Shen Mo took the opportunity to launch the most powerful attack of the artifact and hit the magic circle.

The magic circle shattered instantly, the light disappeared, and the monsters outside stopped moving.

Shen Mo and Qingfeng breathed a sigh of relief and dragged their tired bodies out of the cave.

"How is it?" asked the female general.

"It's solved. The monster won't appear again." Shen Mo said.

However, just when they thought the crisis was over, a cry of surprise suddenly came from the village.

"Oh no! The well water has turned black!"

Shen Mo and others hurried over, only to see that the well water in the village had turned as black as ink and emitted a pungent smell.

"What's going on?" Su Yao said, covering her nose.

Shen Mo frowned: "It seems that things are not over yet..."
