Chapter 374 The Villain Lady Arrives 203

A few days later, Alice led the elite team deep into the hinterland of the mysterious forces, and a decisive battle was about to begin. Although Ryan stayed at the headquarters, his heart was always concerned about the battle situation at the front. He kept in touch with the front line through messengers, hoping to get the latest news.

However, the battle did not go as smoothly as Alice expected. The mysterious forces seemed to have been prepared for a long time. They set up many traps and waited for Alice's arrival. When Alice's team stepped into their territory, a fierce battle broke out instantly.

At the frontline of the battle, Alice, wearing silver armor and holding a long sword, bravely rushed to the front. Her sword skills were sharp and accurate, and every strike was enough to scare the enemy. However, the leader of the mysterious force was a master who was hiding his true strength. He was wearing a black robe, his face was hidden under the shadow of the hood, and he held a dagger that flashed with cold light in his hand.

"Alice, your doomsday has come!" the leader of the mysterious force sneered.

When Alice heard this, a trace of anger and determination flashed in her eyes. She swung her sword at the leader, but the leader dodged her attack easily. Then, the leader appeared behind Alice like a ghost, and the dagger in his hand went straight to her vitals.

Alice was startled, but she relied on her extraordinary reaction speed and combat experience to twist her body at the critical moment and avoid the fatal blow. However, although she avoided the blow, her armor was cut by the dagger, revealing the skin underneath.

"Humph, it seems you are nothing special." The leader sneered, "Today is the day you die!"

Hearing this, Alice felt a strong fighting spirit in her heart. She knew that she couldn't lose this battle like this. So, she took a deep breath, adjusted her state, and swung her sword at the leader again.

This time, her attack was more fierce and swift, forcing the leader to retreat again and again. However, the leader was no ordinary person, and he relied on his excellent body movements and the sharpness of his dagger to continuously counterattack Alice.

The two fought back and forth, and it was hard to tell who was the winner. The soldiers around were also fighting fiercely, but their fight seemed to be a foil to the war, and everyone's eyes were focused on Alice and the leader.

At this moment, Alice suddenly found a flaw in the leader. She swung her sword without hesitation, and this time, her sword accurately hit the leader's left arm. The leader screamed, and the dagger in his hand flew out of his hand.

Seeing this, Alice couldn't help but feel a hope of victory. She swung her sword at the leader again, but at this moment, something unexpected happened. The leader suddenly took out a gem that was shining with a strange light from his arms and smashed it at Alice.

Alice was startled and tried to dodge, but it was too late. The gem exploded in the air, releasing a powerful energy wave. Alice was hit by the energy wave and was blown away, falling heavily to the ground.

"Hahaha, Alice, you finally lost to me." The leader laughed triumphantly.

Alice struggled to get up from the ground. Her face was pale and there was a trace of blood on the corner of her mouth. She knew that she was seriously injured and could no longer fight. However, there was no fear or despair in her eyes. Instead, she was full of determination and anger.

"Don't think you can be complacent for too long!" Alice gritted her teeth and said, "Even if I die, there will be people who will continue to fight until you are completely wiped out!"

The leader's face changed when he heard this. He knew that what Alice said was true. Although the mysterious forces were powerful, they were not invincible. If they continued to be so arrogant, they would sooner or later attract more enemies and troubles.

However, he had no way out now. He could only grit his teeth and continue to fight, hoping to use the gems in his hand and the remaining soldiers to completely destroy Alice and her team.

Ryan, who was at the headquarters, was extremely anxious after learning about the battle situation at the front through a messenger. He knew that Alice was now at the critical moment of life and death, and he had to find a way to support her.

However, he is now at the headquarters and cannot go directly to the front line. He can only continue to send instructions and intelligence to the front line through messengers, hoping to provide some help to Alice.

At this moment, the man in black robe suddenly came in front of him. He looked at Ryan's anxious look, and couldn't help but feel sympathy and admiration in his heart. He knew that Ryan was a true warrior and leader, and he deserved his help and support.

"Master Ryan, you don't have to be so anxious." The man in black robe said, "I have a way to help you go to support Master Alice."

Ryan's heart was moved when he heard this. He looked at the mysterious and confident look of the man in black robe, and a hope surged in his heart.

"What method?" Ryan asked anxiously.

The black-robed man smiled and took out a scroll from his bosom. He unfolded the scroll and saw a complicated magic circle drawn on it.

"This is a teleportation magic circle." The black-robed man said, "It can instantly teleport you to any place on the front line. However, using this magic circle requires a huge price, and you must be prepared to bear this price."

Ryan was shocked when he heard this. He knew that the price the black-robed man mentioned must be very high. However, he could not care about that now. He had to go to support Alice, otherwise her life might be in danger.

"I'm willing to bear any cost." Ryan said firmly.

The man in black robes nodded when he heard this. He began to draw some strange symbols and spells on the magic circle. When the magic circle was finished, he asked Ryan to stand in the center of the magic circle.

"Are you ready?" asked the man in black robe.

Ryan nodded, closed his eyes, and waited for the transmission to begin.

At this moment, the magic circle suddenly lit up with a dazzling light. Ryan felt his body being wrapped by a powerful force and instantly lost consciousness. When he opened his eyes again, he found himself in a hidden corner of the front line.

Ryan looked around and saw that the soldiers around him were fighting fiercely. He didn't have time to think about it and immediately drew his sword and rushed to the battlefield. His sword skills were sharp and accurate, and every strike was enough to scare the enemy. Soon, he cut a bloody path and rushed towards the direction where Alice was.
