Although most of the arrows were deflected by the cavalry, a few still hit their targets accurately, causing several warhorses to whinny and fall heavily to the ground.

The heavy cavalry's charge was momentarily halted, but they immediately adjusted their formation and launched another charge.

At this moment, a group of archers had already taken their positions in the rear. They drew their bows taut, and a dense barrage of arrows whistled through the sky, plunging fiercely into the enemy ranks.

"Raise your shields! Hold the line!" Su Ting shouted, and the soldiers around him raised their shields, forming an impenetrable human wall. The enemy tried to break through this defense, but repeatedly failed.

The fierce battle lasted for several hours, with heavy casualties on both sides. Just as the situation reached a stalemate, a soldier rushed over to report to Li Ming.

"Commander, a new unit has appeared on the western hill; they appear to be friendly forces!"

Li Ming's eyes lit up. "A good opportunity! Pass on my orders: defend with all our might and prepare to launch a counterattack in coordination with the newly arrived troops."

"Yes!" the messenger replied and left.

Su Ting also heard the news. He wiped the sweat from his face and loudly encouraged his comrades: "Hold on, reinforcements are coming, victory is just around the corner!"

Meanwhile, on the western hillside, a reinforcement force of dozens of elite soldiers was rapidly descending the slope. Their movements were swift and agile, clearly indicating they were ready for battle.

The leader was a woman clad in light armor and wielding a long sword, exuding heroic spirit; she was none other than the renowned heroine Lin Yue.

"Everyone, pay attention and follow my steps. Try to engage the enemy in close combat and distract them," Lin Yue whispered.

Everyone nodded in unison, and then surged into the battlefield like a torrent.

With the arrival of reinforcements, the situation changed instantly. The enemy's previously gradually gaining the upper hand began to falter. Li Ming seized the opportunity and immediately issued the order for a full-scale counterattack.

The two forces joined forces to besiege the enemy's central position, and in an instant, swords flashed and blood flew. Caught off guard, the enemy fell into chaos and their morale plummeted.

"Charge! Kill them all!" Xiao Wang roared as he charged forward, his eyes burning with rage. He brandished his spear, felling several enemy soldiers in quick succession.

Just when everyone thought the battle was about to end, a deep bugle call sounded—it didn't come from their own side, but from afar…

Su Ting's heart tightened, and he looked up toward the source of the sound.

A large number of black dots appeared on the northern horizon, accompanied by thunderous roars—they were hundreds of steel behemoths of siege engines and a dense array of soldiers!

Everyone's expression changed. "Damn it..." Li Ming muttered, "This must be another wave of reinforcements that the enemy has planned all along..."

Just when everyone was feeling hopeless, they suddenly heard a deafening sound from the sky. Looking up, they saw several airships approaching them.

After the hatch opened, fully armed figures leaped out, the leader of whom was none other than Zhao Feng, the commander of the Cloud Brigade, with whom he had a previous relationship.

"Haha, brothers, don't panic, reinforcements have arrived!" Zhao Feng laughed and waved, then led his men to quickly land in the center of the battlefield and join the battle.

Seeing this scene, Su Ting and the other soldiers all wore excited smiles. "It seems we can not only hold our ground today, but also completely crush these villains!"

Chapter 399 Dodging to the Side

After Lin Yue led the reinforcements to join the battle, the situation quickly turned in a favorable direction.

Despite the enemy's continued fierce offensive, under the combined attack of the three sides, the enemy has gradually shown signs of defeat.

Su Ting gripped his spear tightly, fighting back-to-back with his comrades, supporting each other.

His eyes were unwavering, and every move he made was precise and powerful.

Just then, a strong gust of wind rang in his ears. He instinctively dodged to the side, only to see a large knife graz his cheek.

"Be careful, these guys are no pushovers!" Xiao Wang warned Su Ting while parrying enemy attacks.

Su Ting nodded, his gaze fixed on the tall enemy in front of him.

After exchanging blows for a few rounds, he suddenly had a brilliant idea. He feinted an attack, drawing his opponent into an opening, and then kicked him hard in the shin, knocking him to the ground. "Done!"

Just as they were preparing to move on, Li Ming's voice came over.

"Su Ting, Xiao Wang, come with me. We need to break into the enemy's command post as soon as possible! Only in this way can we defeat them in one fell swoop."

After the three met up, they immediately set off for their target location. Along the way, they encountered various obstacles, but thanks to their tacit cooperation, they overcame all difficulties and made great strides.

On the other side, the soldiers of the Cloud Brigade led by Zhao Feng also made full use of their air superiority, seeking the best opportunity to strike the enemy in the chaotic battlefield.

Meanwhile, Lin Yue took advantage of her speed by traveling light to launch harassing attacks from behind the enemy lines, leaving them vulnerable to attacks from both sides.

Just as Su Ting and his group were about to approach the enemy's core command area, they were suddenly stopped by a solid defensive line—a guard regiment composed of the most elite troops, who were determined to defend the last line of defense to the death.

Faced with this seemingly insurmountable predicament, Li Ming pondered for a moment, "We must find a way to distract these guards..."

Before the words were even finished, the airship reappeared in the distant sky, followed by countless rockets firing from its cabin, instantly turning the surrounding area into a sea of ​​fire. Taking advantage of this moment of chaos, the group seized the opportunity to enter.

In the midst of the chaos, Su Ting finally made out the figure being protected by layers of guards—the very instigator of this war, the enemy commander. Without hesitation, he drew his sword and charged forward, clearing away all obstacles in his path.

Just before the two sides were about to collide, a loud "clang" rang out, as the woman, Lin Yue, took the initiative and intercepted the enemy leader.

She moved with the agility of a swallow, her long sword creating countless afterimages, forcing her opponent to retreat step by step.

"I never expected to have such a powerful expert helping me. It seems I'm doomed to lose."

Faced with such a powerful opponent, even someone as strong as him could only sigh helplessly. Seeing this, Su Ting quickly stepped forward to lend a hand: "Everyone, attack together! Don't give him a chance to breathe!"

Just as everyone was preparing to deliver the final blow, an eerie silence suddenly fell over the entire battlefield…

Everyone stopped what they were doing and turned to look in the same direction, where several beams of light streaked across the sky, heading straight for the center.

Immediately afterwards, the ground shook violently several times, followed by a series of loud noises and a cloud of dust filling the sky.

After the dust settled, a figure slowly rose from the ruins, surrounded by a strange light.

"What is this...?!" Su Ting was astonished, completely unable to comprehend what had just happened.

The unidentified figure spoke calmly: "Fellow brave warriors, I am a time traveler from afar. My purpose here is not to intervene in your conflict, but to deliver important information."

Chapter 400 A Huge Conspiracy

Su Ting and the others exchanged bewildered glances, their hearts filled with doubt. They were unsure whether this unexpected time traveler was friend or foe.

"Important information? What kind of information?" Li Ming asked cautiously, while signaling everyone to remain vigilant.

The traveler seemed to sense their wariness and smiled slightly, "Please rest assured, I mean no harm. In fact, this war is about to reach a new turning point."

Zhao Feng stepped forward, his gaze fixed on him: "You mean... there's a way to completely resolve the current predicament?"

“That’s right.” The traveler nodded, a hint of mystery in his eyes. “But before that, you need to know a truth—the root of all this is not just a struggle for power and territory.”

Lin Yue frowned. "Is there some other secret we don't know about?"

“Indeed,” the traveler said slowly.

"In fact, behind this war lies a much larger conspiracy. A force is secretly manipulating everything, attempting to use the war to weaken the strength of various countries in order to achieve its own ulterior motives."

Everyone was shocked upon hearing this, unable to accept the fact for a moment. Xiao Wang couldn't help but ask, "Then what kind of entity is this 'force' you're talking about?"

"They are powerful enemies from another world, possessing technology and power far beyond imagination." The traveler's words carried a heavy tone. "And your current battle is merely one part of their plan."

"So what should we do?" Su Ting asked, echoing the sentiments of everyone.

"The only way to end this disaster completely is to unite and fight the real enemy." The traveler paused, then continued, "But I must remind you that this path is destined to be fraught with peril and sacrifice."

Su Ting glanced at his comrades around him; their eyes were all filled with unwavering resolve. Having decided to fight for justice, they would not back down, no matter the difficulties they faced!

Just then, the sound of enemy reinforcements arriving came from not far away. They had clearly noticed the situation and were quickly gathering here.

"It seems now is not the time for detailed discussions," Li Ming said in a deep voice. "In any case, we need to resolve the immediate problem first!"

After saying this, he led the charge towards the approaching enemy troops. Seeing this, the others no longer hesitated and joined the battle.

In the midst of the chaos, the time traveler suddenly intervened to help. With a wave of his hand, he released a strange power that instantly blasted a group of enemies who were trying to launch a sneak attack several meters away!

"This person's strength is indeed extraordinary!" Lin Yue thought to herself. She immediately commanded her soldiers to launch a fierce attack, breaking through the defensive line in one fell swoop.

On the other side, Su Ting and Zhao Feng cooperated perfectly, unleashing their swords simultaneously, sweeping across the battlefield like two giant dragons, leaving the enemy with no way to defend themselves.

However, this period of relative calm was short-lived. As more and more enemy soldiers surged towards the center, the situation gradually became dire again...

Just as everyone was locked in a fierce battle, a thunderous roar suddenly resounded in the sky, followed by dozens of enormous black figures descending from the clouds—the Cloud Legion had brought their final reinforcements!

Seeing this inspiring scene, everyone's morale soared, and they charged forward with all their might, finally breaking through the last obstacle and reaching the vicinity of the enemy's command center.

Just as the two sides were preparing for a life-or-death battle, the time traveler stepped forward again: "Enough! Everyone, please stop for a moment and let me say a few words."

Everyone turned to look, and even the enemy commander stopped what he was doing.

"As mentioned before, this conflict was actually instigated by a third party," the traveler declared loudly. "If we cannot set aside our prejudices and unite to resist external threats, the final result will only be mutual destruction."

Upon hearing this, everyone present fell into deep thought. After a fierce exchange, both sides deeply understood the heavy price that war brings…

Chapter 401 Strange Power

Su Ting looked around at his comrades, all of whom, under his leadership, displayed resolute eyes. Having decided to fight for justice, they would not back down no matter the difficulties they faced!

Just then, the sound of enemy reinforcements arriving came from not far away. They had clearly noticed the situation and were quickly gathering here.

"It seems now is not the time for detailed discussions," Li Ming said in a deep voice. "In any case, we need to resolve the immediate problem first!"

After saying this, he led the charge towards the approaching enemy troops. Seeing this, the others no longer hesitated and joined the battle.

In the midst of the chaotic battle, the time traveler suddenly intervened, unleashing a strange power with a wave of his hand that instantly blasted a group of enemies attempting a sneak attack several meters away!

"This person's strength is indeed extraordinary!" Lin Yue thought to herself. She immediately commanded her soldiers to launch a fierce attack, breaking through the defensive line in one fell swoop.

On the other side, Su Ting and Zhao Feng worked in perfect harmony, unleashing their swords simultaneously like two giant dragons sweeping across the battlefield, leaving the enemy utterly helpless. Their sword shadows intertwined, appearing as invincible as divine weapons descending from the heavens.
