Chapter 201 Crisis emerges
The female general handed the important information to Shen Mo, who took it and read it carefully with a frown on his face.
"It says here that the evil forces are developing a powerful dark weapon. Once completed, it will cause huge damage." Shen Mo said in a heavy voice.
Lin Yuwei, Qingfeng and the surrounding soldiers were all shocked when they heard the news.
"We must stop them!" Qingfeng gripped the hilt of the sword tightly, his joints turning white from the force.
The female general nodded: "But the intelligence did not mention the specific development location. We need to investigate further."
Everyone fell into deep thought and the atmosphere was solemn.
Su Yao stepped forward and said, "Perhaps we can get more information from the captives."
The female general thought this idea was feasible, so she ordered the prisoners to be brought up for interrogation. After a difficult interrogation, she finally learned from a timid prisoner the possible development location of the dark weapon - an ancient castle hidden in the mountains.
"Let's set off without further delay." Shen Mo said.
After a short rest, the army headed towards the mysterious castle. Along the way, the mountain road was rugged and full of thorns.
Lin Yuwei said as she walked with difficulty: "This place is so secret, no wonder we haven't discovered it yet."
Qingfeng cleared the way ahead and used his sword to cut off the branches that blocked the way: "No matter what, this time we must completely crush their plan."
After several days of arduous journey, the outline of the castle finally appeared in front of everyone. The castle was surrounded by thick fog, giving people a gloomy and terrifying feeling.
The female general observed for a while and said, "This castle is heavily guarded. We cannot attack rashly."
Shen Mo suggested: "I'll take a few people to sneak in and check the situation."
The female general thought for a moment and agreed to his proposal.
Shen Mo selected Qingfeng and several agile soldiers and approached the castle carefully. They used the shadows and obstacles around the castle to successfully avoid the patrolling enemies and sneak into the castle.
The castle was filled with a pungent chemical smell, and strange experimental instruments and drawings were hung on the walls.
"It seems that this is where they develop dark weapons." Qingfeng said in a low voice.
As they continued to explore, they suddenly heard footsteps. Shen Mo signaled everyone to hide.
A group of researchers in black robes walked by, discussing something intensely.
"Time is running out and progress must be accelerated."
“But there’s not enough material.”
"Send people to the nearby villages to rob them."
Shen Mo heard their conversation and was filled with anger.
After the researchers left, Shen Mo and his team continued to move forward and finally found the core device of the dark weapon.
"This thing looks terrible." A soldier couldn't help but say.
Just then, an enemy patrol spotted them and sounded the alarm.
"Oh no, we've been discovered! Let's go!" Shen Mo shouted.
They fought a fierce battle with the enemy in the castle, fighting and retreating at the same time.
When the female general heard the noise in the castle, she knew that Shen Mo and his men had been exposed, and immediately ordered an attack.
The army rushed towards the castle like a tide and fought a desperate battle with the enemy.
Shen Mo and others successfully escaped from the castle in the chaos and joined up with the main force.
"How is it?" asked the female general.
Shen Mo panted and said, "We have found the core device of the dark weapon, but the enemy's defense is too tight and it is difficult to destroy it."
The female general frowned: "No matter what, we can't let their conspiracy succeed."
The battle lasted for a long time, and both sides suffered heavy casualties. But everyone knew that this was a battle that could not be retreated...
