As they step deeper into this forgotten land, the surrounding scenery gradually becomes strange and mysterious. Ancient trees tower into the clouds, and their trunks are wrapped with twinkling vines. Occasionally, strange creatures flash past, leaving behind a series of traces that are both frightening and curious.
"Everyone, be careful. Every step here may hide unknown dangers." The mysterious shadow guard's whisper was like a warm current in the cold wind, with concern in the reminder.
"Don't worry, with the Book of Wisdom here, we can solve all the mysteries." Li Zixue smiled slightly, the Book of Wisdom turned automatically, and the ancient runes lit up one by one, as if responding to something.
"Look over there!" Yueyue suddenly pointed to an ancient stone house not far away. It was half-hidden behind a dense forest, emitting a dim and mysterious light.
The group of people quickened their pace and approached the stone house. Warm light leaked from the cracks in the door, as well as low and mysterious conversations. Zhao Ming signaled everyone to hide, and approached cautiously, with his ears close to the crack of the door.
"We must find the 'Heart of Harmony', otherwise everything will fall into endless darkness." An old and majestic voice came from the house, full of urgency and worry.
"Heart of Harmony? What is that?" Yueyue asked in a low voice in confusion.
"Sounds like the key to our trip." Su Mo said softly, green light gathering in his palms, ready to deal with any emergencies.
"We have to go in to learn more." Zhao Ming nodded, carefully opened the door, and stepped into a room full of ancient totems and spells. In the center was a huge round stone table, with several people wearing strange clothes sitting around it. The old men in uniform were discussing something solemnly.
"Who are you? Why are you here?" An old man noticed the uninvited guests and stood up warily.
"We are the messengers chosen by the Staff of Balance to help the world find harmony and balance." Zhao Ming straightened his body and responded calmly.
"Messenger of harmony?" The old man's eyes circulated among everyone, and finally fell on Yueyue. "My child, are you willing to take on this important mission? The heart of harmony needs a pure and flawless heart to awaken it."
There was a trace of hesitation in Yueyue's eyes, but she soon became firm: "I am willing. For the sake of peace in this world, I will bravely face any challenge."
The old man nodded happily, took out a gem that shone with gentle light from his arms, and handed it to Yueyue: "The heart of harmony is awakened by the pure. Go, children, find the sealed place, and use your power , Unlock the shackles of the world ”
With the "heart of harmony", the group embarked on a new journey under the guidance of the old man. Under the starlight, they supported each other and moved forward bravely. Every step brought a spark of hope, and every conversation demonstrated the deep friendship and firm belief between the teams.
"Big brother, big sister, no matter how difficult the road is, I will walk with you." Yueyue's voice sounded in the night sky, full of tenderness but unswerving.
"Yes, Yueyue, because in this journey, each of us has become each other's light." Zhao Ming's smile is as warm as ever, and the thunder spear shines in his hand, indicating the upcoming challenges and victories.
"No, Yueyue!" Zhao Ming turned around suddenly and found that Yueyue's figure had disappeared from the queue at some point. Instead, several masked men took her and quickly escaped into the night. Under the moonlight, Yueyue's cry for help echoed, startling the birds in the forest.
"Damn it, we need to split up and rescue Yueyue immediately!" Su Mo's face was solemn, the power of nature surged around him, ready to attack at any time.
Li Zixue quickly flipped through the book of wisdom, looking for maps and possible traps in this area. "There is a misty forest in the northeast. They may use the complicated terrain there to hide. We must proceed with caution."
The mysterious shadow guard nodded, without any extra words, and his figure quickly disappeared into the darkness, as if integrated with the night, secretly tracking the enemy.
Zhao Ming held a thunder spear with his eyes like a torch, "Su Mo, you and Li Zixue attract attention from the front, and I will follow their footsteps. We must find Yueyue in the shortest possible time."
Su Mo and Li Zixue exchanged a firm look, and then the two of them headed deep into the forest together, using their abilities to create various natural and intelligent disturbances along the way, trying to lure the enemy into revealing their flaws.
However, just as the three of them were moving separately, a powerful energy wave came from somewhere in the forest, and then, a huge shadow passed over their heads, blocking the moonlight.
"This is..." Li Zixue looked up in surprise and saw a huge flying beast carrying several men in black, one of whom was the struggling Yueyue.
"They want to use the flying beast to take Yueyue away from here!" Zhao Ming gritted his teeth and gathered the power of thunder and lightning into arrows, preparing to shoot at the flying beast.
"Don't attack rashly!" Su Mo stopped him, "The flying beast will fly around with Yueyue when it is frightened, making it even more dangerous."
"Then what should we do now?" Zhao Ming asked eagerly.
"Outwit." The mysterious shadow guard returned quietly at some point, holding a complex machine diagram in his hand. "This is what I found in their camp. It seems to be the blueprint of the device that controls the flying beast. If we can interfere with or Controlling this device will force the flying beast to land."
"Good plan, but time is tight, we must act immediately." Zhao Ming took the lead and led everyone towards the camp of the men in black.
The camp is heavily guarded, but infiltration is not impossible for them with their unique abilities. Li Zixue used the knowledge from the Book of Wisdom to unlock the first electronic defense network; Su Mo used plants as cover to quietly approach the control room; Zhao Ming created chaos on the outside to attract the attention of the guards.
"Found it!" Su Mo reported softly in the control room. In front of him was a complex mechanical device covered with various buttons and indicator lights.
"According to the drawing, this red button can temporarily suppress the power of the flying beast." Li Zixue's voice came through the communicator, and she was assisting in the analysis remotely.
The mysterious shadow guard is on guard outside the window. Hidden under the black cloak is his keen awareness of the surrounding environment to ensure that no one approaches.
"Three, two, one...press!" Zhao Ming's voice was full of determination.
As Su Mo pressed the red button, the flying beast in the sky suddenly trembled, then gradually lost height and staggered to the ground. The man in black panicked, but Zhao Ming and others were already waiting at the landing point, and a fierce battle began immediately.
"Yueyue, catch it!" In the chaos, Su Mo used the vines generated by the power of nature to accurately rescue Yueyue from the flying beast and safely delivered it to the ground.
"Big brother!" As soon as Yueyue landed, she immediately threw herself into Zhao Ming's arms, tears bursting from her eyes, but with a strong smile on her face.
"It's okay, we are all here." Zhao Ming patted Yueyue's back gently, his eyes full of comfort.
The battle ended quickly, all the men in black were arrested, and Yueyue was rescued safely. But this incident also made the four realize that their task was far more difficult and complicated than they imagined.
On the way back, Yueyue held Su Mo's hand tightly, her eyes flashing with unprecedented determination: "Big brother and big sister, I know this road is not easy, but I really want to help the world and become like you." The same hero.”
Su Mo smiled and responded gently: "Yueyue, you are already very brave. Remember, the real hero is the one who still chooses to face the fear. When we are together, nothing is impossible."
Under the night, the figures of the group of people gradually drifted away. Their stories were as bright as the starry sky, full of unknowns and hope.
"So, what should we do next?" Yueyue asked expectantly, her little hand still holding Su Mo's big hand tightly, as if she had already grasped countless possibilities for the future.
"First, we need to find the man behind this and solve the mystery of all this." Zhao Ming looked into the distance, determination burning in his eyes.
"Yes, and to protect the heart of harmony, it may be the key." Li Zixue added, the book of wisdom glowing slightly in her hands, as if agreeing with her idea.
"Also, we need to strengthen our training to ensure that we can respond to emergencies more quickly next time." The mysterious shadow guard's voice was low and powerful. He didn't speak many words, but every time he spoke, he had great weight.
Yueyue looked around at her friends, with warmth and strength surging in her heart: "I know, we will become stronger and fight against those who want to destroy harmony together!"
"Well said, little warrior." Su Mo smiled approvingly, and then his voice became solemn, "But now, let's return to the old man first. Maybe they can provide more information about the Heart of Harmony, and How to fight against enemies hiding in the shadows ”
In the darkness, they quickened their pace and returned to the old stone house. When they stepped into the stone chamber again, they found the old men waiting anxiously. Seeing that Yueyue was safe and sound, everyone's faces showed obvious relief.
"It's great that you did it." The old man who first talked to them came forward, with both relief and deep worry in his eyes. "The Heart of Harmony has returned safely, but the crisis is far from over. It must be admitted that , we underestimated the determination and strength of our opponents.”
"Please tell us, what exactly is the Heart of Harmony? Why is it so important?" Zhao Ming asked directly. He knew that only by knowing more can he better protect the treasures in his hands.
The old man was silent for a moment, and then began to tell an ancient and mysterious story: "A long time ago, the world was composed of the harmonious coexistence of the five elements, and the source of this harmonious power is the Heart of Harmony. It is not only a symbol of power, but also The cornerstone of maintaining the balance of the world, but as time passes, greed and jealousy spread in the world. Some people try to control the Heart of Harmony in order to gain supreme power. After a war, the Heart of Harmony was divided and hidden around the world to prevent it from falling into the hands of evil again. Now, the Heart of Harmony begins to respond to the call of the pure heart. Calling, this shows that the world is on the verge of major change."
Li Zixue listened carefully, her eyes shining with curiosity: "Then what should we do? How to ensure that the heart of harmony is not abused and can restore the balance of the world?"
"This is exactly your mission." Another old man said slowly, "You need to find other fragments of the Heart of Harmony and bring them together. Completing this process requires not only courage and wisdom, but more importantly, unity. and trust. At the same time, you must uncover the truth behind the dark force and stop their conspiracy.”
"We will not retreat." Zhao Ming replied firmly, the thunder spear shining in his hand, reflecting his firm will.
"Then let us join hands and face unknown challenges." Su Mo said, the power of nature gently fluctuated around him, as if everything in nature was inspired by it.
"I...I want to help too!" Yueyue raised her little hand. Although her voice was childish, her tone revealed unyielding will.
The old men looked at each other and smiled, full of trust in this group of young people: "We believe in you, the messengers of the Staff of Balance. Wisdom, power, nature, shadow - when these four forces come together, it is the light that dispels the darkness." Time.”
After some in-depth exchanges, the group left the stone house with new mission and determination. The night sky is still bright, but everyone has a clearer direction and firmer belief in their hearts.
"Big brother, big sister, no matter how difficult the road ahead is, let's go together, okay?" Yueyue looked up at Zhao Ming and Su Mo, with a firm light shining in her eyes.
"Of course, Yueyue." Zhao Ming bent down and touched her head tenderly, "On this challenging road, we are each other's strongest support."
"Yes, as long as we are together, nothing is impossible." Su Mo agreed softly, his green eyes reflected the stars, full of expectations for the future.
"Then, let's go!" Yueyue held everyone's hands. Her small figure contained incredible power. Her words were like a declaration and a call for the future.
In the night wind, the four of them walked out of the stone house side by side and embarked on a road that was established but full of unknowns. Although Yueyue's steps were small, they were extremely firm, as if the fire in her heart had become a prairie fire and should not be underestimated.
"The first thing we have to solve is the information problem," Su Mo said as he walked. His fingers gently crossed a leaf, and the leaf grew instantly and weaved into an exquisite map. "Can the book of wisdom provide some information about harmony?" Clues to the heart fragment? ”
Li Zixue flipped through the book of wisdom, frowning, and then relaxed: "The book records that a fragment is connected to the mysterious spring of the ancient forest, and the guardian is the forgotten forest elf. To get there, we must travel through what is known as ' The Land of Mist's Danger Zone"
Zhao Ming's thunder and lightning power jumped at his fingertips, and a trace of determination flashed in his eyes: "No matter how dangerous it is, we will give it a try. Our first target is the ancient forest."
The mysterious shadow guard nodded. Although he didn't speak much, every move he made was full of confidence: "I will explore the path first to ensure safety." "Big brother and big sister, can I help find clues?" Yueyue raised her head. , eyes full of expectation. (End of chapter)
