Chapter 636 Light
Zhao Ming slowly stepped forward and reached out to touch the light. A warm and powerful force poured into his body, and his body seemed to be surrounded by a golden halo. The moment he opened his eyes, pieces of ancient memories and knowledge emerged in his mind. They were gifts from the Heart of Light and were proof that he was the successor of the Heart of Light.
"I understand, this is the answer we have been looking for." Zhao Ming's voice trembled with excitement. He turned around and said to his partners, "The Heart of Light not only contains power, but more importantly, it tells us how to Use this power to protect our home from the darkness.”
Just as they were immersed in the joy of discovering the Heart of Light, the earth suddenly shook, and a dull voice echoed in the ruins: "You have finally found it, but all this will belong to darkness..."
The leader of the Dark Night Apostles, accompanied by a group of elites of the Dark Night Order, emerged from the shadows, their eyes filled with the flames of greed and revenge.
"Zhao Ming, your journey ends here. The Heart of Light will be ours." The tone of the leader of the Dark Night Apostles was full of unquestionable domineering.
"Dream!" Zhao Ming clenched his fists, and the power of light surrounded his body, "Today is the time to completely end the Dark Night Order."
The battle is about to break out, and the forces of light and darkness collide in the Land of Stars, stirring up storms of elements. At this critical moment, an unexpected reinforcement fell from the sky. It was the wandering warlock Liu Yun who had met them by chance. His arrival brought more powerful magical support.
"I said, the news will always be delivered to those who need it. We will not let darkness swallow up light." The staff in Liu Yun's hand shined brightly, and he fought side by side with Zhao Ming and his party.
During the fierce battle, the encouragement from passers-by, villagers, and even the words of passerby Jia, a traveler he met by chance, flashed in Zhao Ming's mind one by one and became the source of his strength. Every ordinary person's yearning for light is gathering into an irresistible force at this moment, pushing them forward.
While the fierce battle between the two sides was going on, Zhao Ming felt an unprecedented determination in his heart. He held up the Heart of Light, and the power of light burst out from him like a tide, illuminating the entire Land of Stars. The Dark Night Apostle and his followers were They retreated one after another under the strong light, their figures gradually blurring in the light.
"Light will last forever, and darkness will surely recede!" Zhao Ming's declaration resounded throughout the land of stars. At that moment, everyone firmly believed that no matter how many unknowns and challenges there were in the future, as long as you have a bright heart, there will be no difficulties that cannot be overcome.
"Who...are you?" The leader of the Dark Night Apostles showed panic for the first time in his tone. He had never expected that a mere mortal could burst out with such astonishing power.
"I am Zhao Ming, a warrior who protects the light, and the embodiment of undying hope in the hearts of every ordinary person." Zhao Ming's answer was firm and powerful, and the brilliance of the Heart of Light made his silhouette look like a legendary hero.
The fighting around them gradually subsided, and the members of the Dark Night Order were retreating steadily in front of the power of light. Their figures gradually disappeared into the torrent of light, leaving only a reluctant whisper: "This game is far from over... …”
After the battle, the air in the Land of Stars seemed to become much fresher. The Heart of Light calmed down in Zhao Ming's hands. The light was soft and warm. It seemed to be conveying some kind of message, clues about the future and inheritance of the mission. .
"What...what is this?" Li Zixue pointed to the ground. Everyone looked and saw a few lines of glowing runes appearing on the originally empty ground, as if they were the Starry Land's response to them.
Salman bent down to observe carefully, with a hint of surprise on his old face: "The ancient prophecy... The Heart of Light has recognized you. This is a clue to guide our next move."
Xu Mo read the content of the rune softly: "'Crossing mountains and rivers, searching for lost ruins, the secrets there will give wings to light and fly to every corner of the world.' It seems that our journey is far from over. ”
Lily looked at her friends, her eyes full of confidence and expectation: "No matter what else is waiting for us ahead, as long as we are together, there will be no difficulty that cannot be overcome."
At this moment, there was a sudden noise at the entrance to the ruins, and a breathless young man in strange clothes rushed in, holding a piece of broken parchment tightly in his hand: "You...you are Zhao Ming and the others, right?" ? I, I am a messenger from the border town. This urgent message is for you.”
Zhao Ming took the parchment, and the words on it made him look solemn: "The Dark Night Apostles are creating chaos everywhere, trying to attract our attention, and their real goal may be..."
"Where could it be?" Enjing asked anxiously.
Zhao Ming took a deep breath: "It is the center of the world, the Temple of Light. They want to destroy it and cut off the last link between the light and the world."
"Then what are you waiting for? Let's set off immediately!" Li Zixue was eager to give it a try. Others also responded, and the atmosphere became tense and full of fighting spirit again.
Just as they were about to leave, the young messenger grabbed Zhao Ming's clothes with reverence in his eyes: "Please succeed. We ordinary people are also fighting against the darkness in our own way. We look forward to your guidance." Come the light.”
Zhao Ming responded with a gentle smile: "Don't worry, we won't let anyone down. Because we are not just fighting for ourselves, but for everyone in the world."
"Then, let us embark on the journey again. This time, not only to find the lost relics, but also to protect our common home." Zhao Ming's words were like a trumpet, stirring in everyone's heart, and their figures Fading away in the afterglow of the setting sun, the passers-by looking at the ruins are left with endless imagination and admiration.
"Look, that's Zhao Ming and the others! The legendary warriors of light!" A passing businessman excitedly pointed at the departing team and said to his friend next to him, "I heard that they have just returned from the Land of Stars and have A power that even the dark night cannot corrode.”
"I really hope I can become a part of the legend like them." A young adventurer's eyes were full of longing, and he held his dagger tightly, as if to cheer himself up.
"They are the hope for all of us." A kind old woman was filled with emotion. She gently stroked the head of the child next to her. "Child, you have to remember that no matter how bumpy the road ahead is, there will always be someone who is there to help us. A beacon for the future.”
As the backs of Zhao Ming and his party gradually disappeared on the horizon, the chatter in the crowd still continued. Their stories were like the wind, quietly blowing to every corner, inspiring more people to have hope and face it bravely. The darkness and challenges of life.
At the same time, Zhao Ming and his party encountered more challenges and adventures during the journey. They climbed over mountains and ridges, passed through dark forests, and fought fiercely with ancient guardian beasts; they crossed rapid rivers, rescued villages besieged by floods, and won the endless gratitude and blessings of the villagers.
"Master Zhao Ming, thank you for your help, and may the God of Light bless you on your journey!" The village chief's trembling voice was full of sincerity, and the villagers knelt down and saluted, expressing their deepest respect.
"Get up, it is our common responsibility to protect every life on this land." Zhao Ming gently helped the village chief, his eyes showing determination for the future, "Please tell everyone that light will never Give up every corner.”
During the journey, Zhao Ming's relationship with his partners became closer and closer, and the friendship and trust between them became stronger through life and death tests. On a camping night, amid the chatter and laughter around the campfire, Enjing looked at the dancing flames and said seriously: "Sometimes I think that maybe what we are doing is not just looking for those lost relics, but also It is to prove that even the most ordinary of us can shine with light in the darkness.”
Xu Mo tapped her helmet and smiled: "Well said, Eunjing. Our story is the best proof."
Lily smiled and joined in: "And, isn't every stranger you meet along the way, their encouragement and help, another manifestation of light?"
Li Zixue looked at the stars, her tone full of expectation: "No matter what the road ahead is, as long as we keep moving forward, the light will get closer and closer."
As they step closer to the place that is said to give wings to light, various unknown threats also follow. However, the hope and strength given by Zhao Ming, his companions, and strangers along the way allowed them to move forward fearlessly.
On a windy and rainy evening, they finally arrived at the entrance to the mysterious ruins. The ancient stone door was carved with complex patterns, which seemed to tell the story of the past thousands of years. Just as Zhao Ming was about to open the door, a voice came from the end of the line with some hesitation:
"What if... what if we fail this time?"
Everyone was silent. Zhao Ming turned around, his eyes swept over every familiar face, and finally stopped at the young messenger who spoke. He spoke slowly, his voice full of unquestionable determination:
"We will not fail. Because we believe that as long as there is light in our hearts, hope will always exist. And more importantly, we are not alone. Every soul in the world that longs for light is our strongest support."
The door opens slowly, revealing an unknown world inside, which is also the starting point of hope. Zhao Ming led his team into the depths of the ruins, leaving the world behind him with a courageous figure and a vow left in the wind:
"Wait, where is Xu Mo?" Li Zixue suddenly discovered that the calm and steady figure who always carried heavy books was missing from the team. She looked around, but there was no trace of Xu Mo.
Zhao Ming's heart sank, he immediately stopped and looked around. In the violent storm, there were only traces of five people standing, and where the sixth person was, there was only mud beaten by raindrops. "Let's search separately, but be careful, there may be danger hidden here." Zhao Ming made a decision quickly, with worry on his brows.
Everyone nodded and immediately dispersed, each entering the wind and rain, calling Xu Mo's name. Li Zixue ran towards the dense forest not far away, while Salman explored the other side of the ruins. Lily and Enjing searched the nearby rock gaps. The young messenger followed closely behind Zhao Ming, and the two carefully inspected the path leading to the interior of the ruins.
"Xu Mo! Where are you?" Zhao Ming's shout penetrated the rain curtain and echoed among the ancient stone walls, but only received a hollow echo.
At this moment, a faint cry for help seemed to come from the wind, as thin as a gossamer, but fell clearly into Zhao Ming's ears. "Listen! It's Xu Mo's voice!" Zhao Ming's furrowed brows relaxed slightly, and he immediately followed the sound.
The sound led them to the entrance of a secret cave. The cave was dark, and they could only vaguely see a figure sitting on the ground, and the dim light of the flashlight flickered on the slippery stone wall. "Xu Mo!" The young messenger took the lead and ran into the cave.
Xu Mo raised his head weakly, his glasses lenses were covered with water drops, and he had a forced smile on his lips: "I almost got trapped by this damn mechanism, but luckily you guys are here."
Zhao Ming squatted down and inspected the vine-like trap wrapped around Xu Mo's ankle. This trap cleverly took advantage of the natural environment of the ruins. Without an in-depth understanding of ancient ruins, it would be extremely difficult to escape. "These mechanisms don't look simple. How did you trigger them?" Zhao Ming asked.
Xu Mo smiled bitterly: "I was studying a seemingly harmless relief, but I didn't expect to trigger the mechanism. Fortunately, the small tools in my schoolbag came in handy, allowing me to temporarily stop the trap from shrinking further."
Everyone worked together to rescue Xu Mo and reunited. The wind and rain seemed to be lighter, but everyone was more alert. Returning to the entrance of the ruins, Zhao Ming looked at each of his partners: "We are a team and cannot fall behind at any time. Next, we must be more careful."
Enjing patted Xu Mo on the shoulder: "You really scared us just now. We can't be so reckless in the future, Mr. Scholar."
Xu Mo nodded, but his eyes shone with unyielding: "I will pay attention, but thanks to these agencies, I discovered that this ruins may hide deeper secrets than we expected."
"Secret?" Li Zixue asked curiously.
"Yes, based on the complexity of these mechanisms and the ancient symbols I just found in the cave, there may not only be the secret that allows light to fly, but also key information about the ancient war of light." Xu Mo His eyes flashed with excitement and anticipation.
Lily said excitedly: "That means our mission has become more important."
Zhao Ming raised his arms and made a gathering gesture: "In this case, we cannot relax at all. Let us uncover the truth of this relic together and pave the way for the spread of light."
Everyone looked at each other, their eyes burning with common belief. At this moment, a strange light came out from inside the ruins and shone on everyone's face. The light seemed to carry some kind of calling, which was both warm and mysterious. (End of chapter)
