"Yes, children, you are our heroes!" echoed a woman holding a child next to her. The child looked at them with wide eyes, full of curiosity and admiration.
Zhou Huabing leaned over with a smile and said to the child: "Little guy, remember, everyone has the power to fight against darkness in their hearts. In the future, you can protect important people like us."
The child's mother nodded movedly, and the people gathered around also started talking with surprise and admiration.
"Look at them, they are the real warriors who never give up even in the face of despair." A middle-aged man said to his friends around him, his tone full of admiration for them.
"Yes, especially the injured young man. He has incredible power, which makes people feel warm and at ease." Another woman sighed with emotion, following Su Mo's figure with her eyes.
"Strength is not everything. They taught us that the most important thing is faith in our hearts." An old man sighed, his eyes shining with wisdom.
Amidst the praise and exclamation, Aiwen turned to look at Su Mo, with a hint of cunning in his eyes: "Su Mo, it seems that our story has spread in the town. However, the real challenge may have just begun. Are you ready for the adventure ahead? ”
Su Mo smiled slightly, with confidence and expectation in his eyes: "Of course, as long as we are together, there is nothing we can't overcome? Moreover, I also want to know the meaning behind the devil's last words."< br>
"After all, the balance between light and darkness cannot be broken by you..." Zhou Huading muttered, looking thoughtfully at the starry sky in the distance. "Behind this sentence, there may be a deeper secret hidden."
"Yes, the rules of this world are far more complicated than we imagined." Zhou Huayi continued, "But I believe that as long as we have a bright mind, there is nothing that cannot be explored and understood."
"Then let's uncover the secrets of this world together." Su Wen raised the pen in his hand, his eyes flashing, as if he couldn't wait to meet the new challenge.
"But before that," Su Mo said with a smile, trying to ease the slightly heavy atmosphere, "Should we find a place to celebrate today's victory? After all, even the devil praised our bond, this is not Something that happens every day.”
"Haha, Su Mo is right, the joy of victory deserves to be celebrated." Zhou Huajia clapped his hands in agreement, and everyone laughed, and the atmosphere became relaxed and joyful again.
The night wind blew gently, seeming to be cheering for their victory. Under the shining of the stars, they supported each other and embarked on their return journey, each step firm and full of strength. And their conversations, accompanied by the night wind, floated in every corner of the town, stimulating people's desire for light and curiosity about the unknown world.
"No matter what awaits us in the future," Ivan's voice sounded in the team, firm and warm, "as long as we have light in our hearts, there is nothing that darkness can cover up."
"Yes, as long as you are here, darkness will never find a place." Su Mo's words were full of power. His smile infected every teammate and warmed the people who were gradually gathering around him.
"Look, they are like bright lights in the night sky, leading us forward." In the crowd, an old man whispered, his tone full of admiration.
"Yes, especially the one named Ai Wen. The moment he threw the pen sword, I thought it was a god coming down to earth." The young man next to him answered, his eyes shining with yearning.
"There are also the brothers of the Zhou family. Their heroic appearance in fighting together is simply the reappearance of the legendary heroes." A girl said excitedly, and her voice attracted a murmur of approval.
Just as everyone was immersed in admiration for the heroes, a subtle and strange sound suddenly sounded from the other end of the town. The sound seemed to be echoing some ancient and mysterious call, making the air tremble.
"What's that sound?" Su Mo asked with a frown. His intuition told him that things might not end that easily.
"I don't know, but we'd better go take a look." Ivan replied. The pen in his hand turned into a sword shape again at some point, and he looked warily towards the direction of the sound.
Upon seeing this, the residents of the small town made way for one another. Their expressions were nervous and full of expectation, as if they had a premonition that new challenges were coming.
"Everyone, let's go find out the situation. Stay here and stay vigilant." Zhou Huajia said loudly, his voice was firm and reassuring.
The group of people quickly headed towards the source of the sound. On the way, Su Mo asked Alvin softly: "Do you think this is related to the 'balance of light and darkness' mentioned by the devil before?"
Ivan frowned and said in a deep voice: "It's very possible. The devil's final words are more like some kind of prophecy. We need to be prepared to face possible challenges."
While they were discussing, the sight before them stopped them all. I saw a luminous ring suspended in mid-air. In the ring, it seemed that the scenery of another world was slowly unfolding. The light and shadow were intertwined, beautiful and mysterious.
"This...is this a portal to where?" Zhou Huayi murmured to himself, the shock in his eyes hard to conceal.
"No matter where it leads, since it appears here, there must be a reason for it." Su Mo said firmly. He took a step forward and stared at the door, "We are messengers of light and should not be afraid to explore the unknown. .”
"Su Mo is right, no matter what challenges are behind the door, we will face them together." Aiwen nodded and followed closely.
Following their lead, the Zhou brothers also stepped forward one after another. The five of them stood side by side in front of the portal. The surrounding residents held their breath and watched, and the entire town seemed to be frozen.
"Are you ready, my friends?" Su Mo asked, with the desire for adventure burning in his eyes.
"Stand by at any time." Everyone replied in unison, the voice full of determination and confidence.
Just as they were about to step into the mysterious portal, a child's voice suddenly sounded: "Warriors, you must come back safely! We will wait for you here and tell new legends!"
Ivan turned back and smiled at the expectant faces: "Don't worry, we will definitely bring back more bright stories."
After saying that, they stepped into the door leading to the unknown without hesitation. The light suddenly appeared, but when the light dissipated, they were no longer where they were, leaving only awe and blessings echoing in the night sky.
"Did they really enter another world?" The child looked up and asked his mother, his eyes full of longing for heroes.
"Yes, little ones, they are always at the forefront, exploring the unknown for us." The mother caressed the child's head, with both pride and worry in her eyes.
The discussion in the crowd did not stop because of their departure, but intensified. The curiosity about the unknown and the expectation for the hero's return, like a ignited fire, quietly spread in everyone's heart.
"It would be great if one day I could take risks with them." The young apprentice looked at the disappearing door, with the light of dream shining in his eyes.
"You have to have dreams, but remember, they are not the only heroes who protect their homeland, but also every ordinary person who is willing to stand up and fight against the darkness." The old blacksmith on the side taught earnestly, and his words were full of profound meaning.
At the same time, the five people who crossed the portal found themselves in a bizarre world, where the sky was burning with strange purple flames and the ground was covered with flowing silver rivers. The environment was both mysterious and full of challenges.
"This place... is simply beyond imagination." Zhou Huabing marveled, his eyes wandering around, trying to understand it all.
"Indeed, we seem to have come under a completely different law." Ivan said solemnly, and the light pen sword in his hand emitted an even stronger light, as if in response to the specialness of this land.
Su Mo looked around and suddenly pointed to a palace built of light not far away: "You may be able to find some clues there."
The group of people moved forward cautiously, and everything they saw along the way was amazing. As they approached the palace, a soft voice sounded in their hearts: "Welcome to the realm between realms, walkers of light. I am the guardian of this space, Salma."
Ivan looked around, but saw no one speaking. He couldn't help but asked curiously: "Salma, are you communicating with us? Why were we brought here?"
"Yes, it's me. Your arrival is not by chance, but because the balance of light and darkness is being shaken by unprecedented power, and you are chosen to be the key to restoring balance." Salma's voice was full of vicissitudes of life. and wisdom.
"The key? What should we do?" Zhou Huayi asked, with a sense of responsibility and confusion in his tone.
"First of all, you must find the 'Fragments of Light' scattered everywhere. They are the key to maintaining the balance of this universe. At the same time, you must also be careful of those entities that attempt to use the power of darkness to destroy the balance." Salma explained, then As his voice fell, a map slowly unfolded in the void in front of them, marking the possible locations of the fragments of light.
"It seems that our journey has just begun." Su Mo clenched his fists and looked resolutely.
"No matter what the road ahead is, we will face it together." Ivan responded. Their eyes met, conveying trust and determination without words.
Just as they were about to set off according to the map instructions, a black shadow flashed across the horizon. The speed was almost impossible to catch, but it caused uneasy fluctuations in the entire realm.
"That's..." Before Zhou Huajia could finish his words, an overwhelming sense of oppression came over him, making everyone's breath suffocate.
"It seems that the dark forces have noticed our existence." Salma's voice was urgent, "Be careful, the real test has only begun now."
"Get ready to fight." Ivan quickly pointed the light pen sword at the sky, and the light condensed into a shield around him, protecting everyone. His movements were crisp and neat, showing his determination and responsibility as a team leader.
The Zhou brothers were not far behind. Zhou Huayi summoned a bow and arrow made of pure energy, aiming at the direction where the unknown force might come, while Zhou Huabing clasped his hands together, closed his eyes and meditated, seeming to be interacting with this foreign land. Communicate with the land and look for possible help.
Su Mo's eyes shone with unyielding light. He stretched out his hand and gently touched a luminous stone beside him. In an instant, the light spots floating in the air seemed to hear a silent call and converged into a dazzling armor of light. Covering his body made him look more majestic.
"We are not afraid of the darkness, because we ourselves are the light." Su Mo's voice sounded in the team, like a needle in the sea, calming everyone's anxiety.
"Yes, no matter what we encounter, we will face it together!" Zhou Huading also mustered up his courage. Although his abilities have not yet been fully demonstrated, his unyielding will is equally inspiring.
Just as everyone was waiting, the black shadow appeared again. This time its movement slowed down significantly, and it gradually revealed a human-shaped outline. The man's whole body was wrapped in a pitch-black cloak, his eyes were as deep as the abyss, and he exuded a heart-stopping aura.
"Welcome to the realms, travelers of light. I am the Shadowbringer, Milos." The man's voice was like a cold wind blowing through dry bones, cold and emotionless.
Ivan held the light pen sword tightly and responded calmly: "Milos, we have no intention of provoking a dispute, but we will not back down. If you are here to stop us, then let us see who can shine, light or darkness." Brighten up this world ”
The surrounding air became extremely heavy due to the confrontation between the two sides. Some of the residents watching whispered, and most of them waited with bated breath. For them, this battle between light and darkness was not only the unfolding of an adventure story, but also the unfolding of an adventure story. It is a test of faith and hope.
"Then, let me test your determination." As soon as Milos finished speaking, a black mist condensed in his hand and shot towards Ivan and the others.
Ivan turned to one side and easily dodged the attack. At the same time, he waved his light pen sword, and a dazzling light cut through the black fog, heading straight for Milos. The two forces collided in mid-air, erupting with a deafening bang. Light and shadow intertwined, creating a magnificent and intense picture.
"They... they are really fighting the Dark Messenger!" In the crowd, the young apprentice said excitedly, his eyes shining with unprecedented light, which was the worship of heroes and the infinite longing for the unknown world.
"This is not only a battle, but also a trial." The old blacksmith's voice was steady and powerful. He whispered in the ear of the young apprentice, "Remember, true courage is not to be fearless, but to still choose in the face of fear. Move forward.”
Just as the battle became more intense, a gentle but unignorable voice sounded in everyone's heart: "That's enough, Milos, let them continue their mission. The balance between light and darkness should not be determined by meaningless battles." ." Milos paused when he heard this, and the black mist dissipated. He gave Aiwen and the others a cold look, and finally turned into a black shadow and disappeared into the sky. (End of chapter)
