Chapter 365 Difficult Choice
In the alliance camp, the tense atmosphere was like a heavy dark cloud weighing on everyone's heart. Shen Mo was alone in the tent, pondering over the map marked with various information. The news brought by the mysterious stranger and the discovery of the reconnaissance team put him in a dilemma.
At this time, Qingfeng walked in. "Chief, the soldiers' emotions are becoming increasingly unstable. We must make a decision as soon as possible." His face was full of anxiety.
Shen Mo raised his head, his eyes revealing fatigue and determination. "I know, but this decision concerns the life and death of everyone, so it cannot be taken lightly."
The female general also entered the tent. "Chief, I don't think we can completely trust that stranger. This may be a trap set by the dark forces."
Shen Mo nodded, "I have the same concerns, but if what he said is true, the consequences will be disastrous if we just sit there and wait for death."
Lin Yuwei rushed over and said, "Chief, after a few days of research, we have made some new discoveries about those mysterious mechanical devices. Their dark magic power is very strong. Once activated, it can indeed cause great damage."
Su Yao followed up and said: "However, if we attack rashly, with our current strength and preparation, we may also suffer heavy losses."
Shen Mo stood up and folded his arms across his chest. "We must weigh the pros and cons and find the most appropriate solution."
In the following days, there was a heated discussion within the alliance. Some advocated taking the initiative to disrupt the plans of the dark forces before they were fully prepared, while others believed that they should strengthen their defenses and wait for more intelligence and support.
Shen Mo constantly analyzed various possible situations and consequences with the generals.
"If we attack, we may fall into the enemy's ambush, but we may also catch them by surprise and achieve a crucial victory," Shen Mo said.
Qingfeng responded: "But if it is a trap, our losses will be immeasurable."
The female general continued, "If we choose to defend, once the enemy's weapons are ready, we may be in a passive position and unable to fight back."
Just as everyone was arguing, the stranger found Shen Mo again.
"Chief, I know you have doubts about me, but time is running out and we can't hesitate any longer," the stranger said anxiously.
Shen Mo stared into his eyes, trying to discern the truth from them. "Why do you care so much about our fate?"
The stranger sighed, "Because I see hope in you, the courage and determination to fight against the dark forces. I don't want to see this hope shattered."
Shen Mo was silent for a moment, then said: "Okay, I decided to send an elite team, led by me personally, to conduct a reconnaissance of the mysterious camp. If the situation is true, we will decide on the next course of action."
Although everyone was worried about Shen Mo's safety, they also knew that this was the safest way at the moment.
So Shen Mo selected some of the best fighters and prepared to embark on this reconnaissance journey full of unknowns.
Before leaving, Su Yao prepared enough medicine and food for them. "Be careful, everyone is waiting for you to come back."
Lin Yuwei cast some protective magic for them. "These magics may be able to protect you at the critical moment."
Qingfeng patted Shen Mo's shoulder. "Chief, be careful."
Shen Mo nodded and led the team towards the mysterious camp. Along the way, they carefully avoided possible enemy patrols and tried not to leave any traces.
Finally, they approached the camp. Shen Mo signaled everyone to stop and quietly approached to observe.
The camp was heavily guarded, with huge mechanical devices standing in the center and surrounded by busy dark force soldiers.
Shen Mo's heart sank. The situation was worse than they had imagined.
Just as he was about to return to reunite with the team, his foot suddenly stepped on a dead branch, making a crisp sound.
"Who is it?" the guard in the camp shouted vigilantly.
Shen Mo knew that they were discovered...
