Chapter 31: Chapter 31: The Counterattack of the Remnants of the Dark Forces
Jack, Alice, and the unnamed wizard, carrying the three artifacts shrouded in divine light, returned from afar and set foot on the land of the continent of Elysia. Their faces were filled with weariness, but their eyes burned with a determined fire. They firmly believed that with the fall of the Shadow Monarch, the dark forces on this continent would surely vanish.
However, things don't always go as expected. The moment their feet touched the soil of Elysia, a cold and evil aura quietly pervaded the air. In every corner of the continent, those remnants of the dark forces that had once been corrupted by darkness did not seem to disperse with the demise of the Shadow Monarch. They were like venomous snakes hiding in the shadows, eyeing their prey and waiting for the right moment.
Among these remnants of the dark forces, some were once loyal lackeys of the Shadow Monarch. They were proficient in all kinds of strange dark magic, able to manipulate shadows and corrode life. Others were magical beasts that had been consumed by the dark power. Their bodies were twisted and terrifying, and their strength was more ferocious than ever before.
The return of Jack and the others did not bring the peace and tranquility they had imagined. On the contrary, the restlessness of the dark forces made them realize that an even more arduous battle awaited them.
They first came to a small town enveloped by dark power. This small town had once been a prosperous place on the continent of Elysia, but now it had become lifeless. Thick shadows hung over the streets, and the air seemed to be filled with the stench of decay. The eyes of the townspeople were empty and 无神,as if they were controlled by some invisible force.
Jack gripped the Dawnbreaker Sword in his hand tightly. Golden light flowed on the sword blade, as if it could dispel all darkness. Alice, on the other hand, held the Staff of the Stars firmly. Countless twinkling lights flickered at the tip of the staff, as if the brightest stars in the night sky had all converged in her hand. The wizard also raised his magic wand, which was engraved with complex runes and emitted a mysterious and powerful force.
They carefully made their way through the streets of the small town, trying to find the source of the dark power. However, just as they were about to approach their target, a group of dark wizards suddenly emerged from all directions. Their magic wands glowed with an eerie light, and they muttered incantations under their breath, casting all kinds of evil dark magic.
Black flames and the light of curses rushed towards them like a tide. The air was filled with the smell of burning, as if something was on fire. Jack and the others quickly stood back to back, forming a solid defense line. They waved their weapons and magic wands, engaging in a fierce battle with the dark wizards.
The battle was extremely fierce. The magic of the dark wizards was powerful and strange, making it difficult to defend against. However, Jack and the others were no ordinary opponents. Relying on the power of the three artifacts, they engaged in a thrilling contest with the dark wizards.
During the battle, Jack gradually discovered the weakness of the dark wizards. Although their magic was powerful, their coordination was not good. So, he quickly communicated with Alice and the wizard and formulated a set of tactics. Alice cast powerful magic to attract the attention of the dark wizards; Jack took the opportunity to launch attacks and look for the flaws of the dark wizards; and the wizard provided support and cover for them from the side.
However, the dark wizards were not easy to deal with either. They quickly adjusted their tactics and strategies and formed a powerful magic array. Endless dark power surged out from the magic array, as if it was going to swallow the entire small town.
Facing this powerful dark power, Jack and the others felt tremendous pressure. Their defense line began to waver and crack. However, at this critical moment, Jack suddenly remembered the Eye of Insight in his hand. He quickly took out the Eye of Insight and injected his magic power into it. Suddenly, the Eye of Insight emitted a dazzling light, as if it could see through all falsehoods and darkness.
This light penetrated the magic array of the dark wizards, making their movements slow down. Jack and the others took the opportunity to launch an attack and finally repelled the dark wizards one by one.
After defeating the dark wizards, they began to look for a way to lift the dark magic on the townspeople. After a search and investigation, they finally found a huge dark magic array in the center of the small town. This magic array emitted a powerful dark power and was the source of the control over the townspeople.
Jack and the others worked together and used the power of the three artifacts to attack the dark magic array. Golden sword qi, the power of the stars, and mysterious magic intertwined with each other, forming a powerful energy beam. This beam slammed into the dark magic array with a deafening roar.
After a thrilling contest, the dark magic array was finally destroyed. The townspeople regained their consciousness and freedom. They came out of their homes one after another and thanked Jack and the others for saving their lives.
However, when Jack and the others looked at the freed townspeople, there was not much joy or relief on their faces. Because they knew that this was just a small-scale counterattack by the remnants of the dark forces. Greater crises and challenges were still waiting for them ahead. They had to find the headquarters of the dark forces as soon as possible and completely eradicate that evil power.
