Enzo and his companions fortified their defenses in Rage Temple, remaining ever vigilant to their surroundings. They knew that the people from the Pride Temple could launch an attack at any moment.

Matilda was setting traps around the temple, mumbling to herself, “Let those guys taste some real power.” Kosor was checking his weapons, ensuring they would deliver maximum impact in battle. Meanwhile, Patricia was organizing spell scrolls, preparing for the impending fight.

At that moment, a guard rushed in with alarming news. “Bad news! We’ve spotted a large number of enemies approaching!” Enzo and the others immediately stood up and stepped outside the temple to assess the situation.

In the distance, they saw a dark mass of enemies. These foes hailed from various evil factions, each one powerful, with eyes filled with sloth and malice.

“This is trouble,” Kosor said. Enzo frowned, “Everyone prepare for battle; we can’t let them succeed.” Matilda scoffed, “Let them come. I’m not afraid of anyone.”

The enemies quickly reached the temple, and both sides immediately engaged in a fierce battle. The sheer number of enemies surged like a tidal wave.

Enzo and his companions fought valiantly, casting various spells and employing skills in a desperate struggle against the onslaught. Kosor swung his great sword, charging through the enemy ranks like a ferocious beast. “Watch my great sword!” Kosor shouted.

Matilda unleashed her freezing divine arts, immobilizing a group of enemies. “You’re all frozen!” Matilda declared triumphantly. Patricia stayed in the back, continuously casting support spells to enhance her teammates’ strength and defense.

However, the enemies were overwhelming, and they gradually found themselves in a precarious situation. Just then, Mau’s subordinates appeared again. They launched a surprise attack from the shadows, causing significant chaos among the enemy ranks.

Enzo and his team seized the opportunity to counterattack, driving the enemies back. “You think you can take our stuff? Not a chance!” Enzo shouted.

Seeing the tide turning, the enemy leader yelled, “Keep attacking!” The foes launched another fierce assault.

The battle reached a stalemate, with both sides struggling to hold their ground. Enzo realized that continuing in this manner would lead to defeat; they needed to find a way to break the deadlock.

He observed the enemy movements and suddenly spotted a weak point at the back of their formation. Enzo immediately signaled Matilda and Kosor, and the three of them charged towards the enemy’s rear.

With their combined assault, they disrupted the enemy’s formation, causing confusion and chaos. Taking advantage of the moment, Enzo and his companions launched a full-scale counterattack, sending the enemies reeling.

“Ha ha, now you know what we’re capable of!” Matilda said triumphantly. With no other choice, the enemies had to retreat once again.

Enzo and the others let out a sigh of relief, but they knew that the enemies wouldn’t just give up. They had to come up with a strategy quickly; otherwise, next time the enemies attacked, they might not be so lucky.

They returned to the temple and began discussing their countermeasures. After a thorough discussion, they decided to take the initiative and disrupt the enemy’s plans.

Enzo and his team started preparing for action, aiming to catch the enemies off guard. Little did they know, the enemy was also plotting a new scheme.

Determined to strike first, they readied their weapons and spells, preparing to set out.

Matilda said excitedly, “This time we’re really going to teach those guys a lesson.” Kosor swung his great sword, “Exactly! Let them know our strength.” Meanwhile, Patricia checked her spell scrolls, ensuring they would be effective in battle.

They quietly left Rage Temple, making their way toward the enemy camp. Along the way, they stayed cautious, avoiding detection by the enemy.

As they approached the enemy camp, they noticed that the defenses were very tight. Enzo surveyed the surroundings and said to the others, “We need to find a way to blend in.”

Matilda thought for a moment, “How about we disguise ourselves as enemies?” Kosor nodded, “That’s a good idea.”

They found some enemy clothes and equipment, disguising themselves as part of the opposing forces to infiltrate the camp. Inside, they cautiously observed the enemy movements, looking for opportunities.

They discovered that the enemies were discussing their next attack plan. Seizing the chance, Enzo and his team decided to sabotage their plans.

Matilda cast her freezing divine arts, immobilizing the enemy’s weapons depot. “Check this out!” Matilda said proudly. Kosor took the opportunity to destroy the enemy’s communication devices. “Now you can’t contact anyone,” Kosor remarked.

Patricia provided support spells to cover their teammates. Their actions attracted the enemies’ attention, and soon the foes began searching for them.

Enzo and his team quickly retreated, all the while creating more chaos for the enemies. They set traps in the enemy camp, ensuring the foes would suffer.

“Ha ha, now you get a taste of our power!” Matilda said with satisfaction. They successfully disrupted the enemy’s plans and caused them substantial losses.

However, they knew the enemies wouldn’t simply relent. They had to return to Rage Temple quickly and prepare their defenses.

Upon arriving back at Rage Temple, they began reinforcing their defenses. Just as they were busy, the enemies launched another attack.

This time, the enemy’s attack was even more ferocious; they seemed to be enraged. Enzo and his companions immediately prepared for battle, ready to face the incoming assault.

The two sides once again engaged in a fierce conflict, and the scene of battle was exceptionally brutal. Enzo and his team fought desperately, casting various spells and utilizing their skills in a life-or-death struggle against the enemy.

Kosor swung his great sword, charging through the enemy ranks like a ferocious beast. “Check out my great sword!” Kosor shouted. Matilda unleashed her freezing divine arts, immobilizing a group of foes. “You’re all frozen!” Matilda declared with pride.

Patricia stayed in the back, continuously casting support spells to enhance her teammates’ strength and defense. However, the sheer number of enemies was overwhelming, and they gradually found themselves in a precarious situation.

At that moment, Mau’s subordinates appeared again. They launched a surprise attack from the shadows, causing significant chaos among the enemy ranks.

Seizing the opportunity, Enzo and his team counterattacked, pushing the enemies back. “You think you can take our stuff? Not a chance!” Enzo shouted.

With no other option, the enemies were forced to retreat once more. Enzo and the others knew that this battle was only temporary; they had to come up with a better plan to deal with the enemy’s attacks.

After the enemy retreated again, Enzo and his companions began to ponder their next course of action. They understood that the enemy would not give up easily and would likely launch another attack.

Matilda frowned, saying, “These guys really are a pain.” Kosor swung his great sword, “What are we afraid of? We’ll take them down one by one.” Patricia, deep in thought, remarked, “We need to figure out a way to find more allies.”

While they were discussing, a mysterious figure arrived at Rage Temple. This person was cloaked in a dark robe, making it impossible to see their face.

“Are you the ones guarding the Ancestor Meat and the magic circle?” the mysterious figure asked. Enzo regarded the stranger warily, “Who are you? Why are you here?”

The mysterious figure smiled slightly, “Don’t be alarmed; I’m here to help you. I know you are facing significant difficulties, and I can assist you in fighting against those evil forces.”

Enzo and the others looked at the mysterious figure with skepticism. The stranger noticed their doubts and continued, “I understand that you don’t trust me, but I can prove my power.”

With that, the mysterious figure conjured a powerful spell; a beam of light shot forth, instantly leveling a distant mountain peak.

Enzo and his companions were stunned; they hadn’t expected this mysterious figure to be so powerful. Matilda’s eyes widened, “Wow, that’s incredible!” Kosor also displayed a look of surprise, “This guy is no joke!”

The mysterious figure looked at them and said, “Now do you believe me? I can help you fight against those evil forces, but you must agree to one condition.”

Enzo furrowed his brow, “What’s the condition?” The mysterious figure replied, “Once you defeat those evil forces, you must entrust the Ancestor Meat and the magic circle to me for a period of time.”

Enzo and the others hesitated, unsure if they should agree to this condition. Handing over the Ancestor Meat and the magic circle to the mysterious figure could mean losing control over these treasures. But if they refused, they might not be able to combat the evil forces effectively.

As they wavered, the mysterious figure added, “Don’t worry. I only wish to study the powers of the Ancestor Meat and the magic circle; I won’t cause them any harm. Once I’m done with my research, I will return them to you.”

After contemplating the offer, Enzo and his team decided that the condition was acceptable. They agreed to the mysterious figure’s terms, allowing him to assist them in their fight against the evil forces.

Seeing that they had accepted his proposal, the mysterious figure smiled with satisfaction. “Good, from now on, we are allies. I will help you defeat those evil forces and protect the Ancestor Meat and the magic circle.”

After forming an agreement with the mysterious figure, Enzo and his team began discussing strategies for the next enemy attack. The mysterious figure appeared to have considerable knowledge about the evil forces, providing detailed analyses of each faction’s characteristics and their common tactics.

“These guys from the Dark Marsh are skilled at hiding and launching surprise attacks in muddy environments, so we need to be cautious of our footing,” the mysterious figure pointed to a marked area on the map. Kosor tightened his grip on his great sword and replied, “Hmph, no matter where they hide, as long as they dare to show their faces, I’ll chop them to pieces.” Matilda, playing with a beam of icy light in her hand, added, “Exactly! With this mysterious big brother helping us, what do we have to fear?”

Before long, the enemy indeed launched another assault. This time, they brought along massive siege equipment, seemingly ready to forcefully breach the defenses of Rage Temple.

“Perfect timing! Let them taste our power!” Enzo shouted, leading the charge forward.
