Just as they were about to leave the ruins and continue their journey to the Lost City, the star wheel revelation appeared in the sky again, more dazzling than before, as if guiding them on the road.
"It seems that the gears of fate have begun to turn, and we have no time to hesitate." The elder Merlin's deep eyes reflected the star wheel, and his tone was full of a sense of mission.
They stepped out of the ruins and headed in the direction pointed by the star wheel, leaving behind them endless legends and good stories that passers-by continued to tell.
"Light Walkers, they can always create miracles at critical moments. It's really amazing!" A passing traveler sighed, his eyes full of awe.
"Yes, maybe the next legend will be born among us." The person next to him agreed, with hope shining in his eyes.
"Who could have imagined when the stage of destiny would be set up for us." An old man whispered softly to his grandson at a tea stall not far away, with the glory of the past shining in his eyes, "Once upon a time, I also dream of following in the footsteps of those heroes, exploring the unknown, and writing my own legend.”
The little grandson's eyes widened with longing on his face: "Grandpa, do you also want to become a Light Walker? Then why don't we take risks?"
The old man chuckled and patted the child's head: "Everyone has his own mission, child. Although my stage is not in those distant ruins, it is here to tell you the stories of those heroes and ignite the fire in your heart. And your stage has not yet arrived, but it must be vaster than the starry sky.”
The conversation between grandfather and grandson was like a ray of spring breeze, gently blowing through the hearts of others, causing the surrounding people to fall into deep thought. The existence of the Light Walker is not only about courage and adventure, but also a heritage that inspires everyone to pursue the light in their own lives.

At the same time, the four of them followed the direction guided by the star wheel, passed through rolling mountains, crossed rapid rivers, and finally came to a hidden valley. The valley is shrouded in clouds and mist, and a majestic palace can be vaguely seen standing in it, exuding a mysterious and ancient atmosphere.
"Is this... the entrance to the Lost City?" Su Mo was amazed. The scene in front of her was beyond her imagination.
"It looks like we are getting closer to our target." Klein looked around, holding the hilt of his sword and remaining alert.
The elder Merlin took out the ancient book from his backpack, compared it carefully with the surrounding environment, and frowned: "The description in the book is indeed consistent with the scene in front of me, but how to enter this city still requires some twists and turns. .”
While they were discussing, a low chime of bells came from the depths of the palace, melodious and solemn, as if it was the call of some kind of ritual.
"The bell...is it a welcome or a warning?" An indescribable feeling surged in Ivan's heart. He looked at his companions and found that their eyes were also full of uncertainty.
At this moment, the fog in the valley suddenly became thicker, and a vague figure gradually walked out of the fog. It was an old man in a cloak. He was holding a cane, and his face was covered with traces of time.
"Welcome to the end of time, Light Walkers." The old man's voice was old and deep, as if he had traveled through a long time tunnel. "I am the last guardian of this ancient city. Your arrival is both inevitable and inevitable in the prophecy. The choice of fate.”
"Guardian, do you know the true purpose of the Key of Time and Space?" Ivan took a step forward and asked.
The old man smiled slightly and tapped his cane on the ground. The surrounding scenery unfolded like a scroll, showing fragments of history, from prosperity to decline, and then to the cycle of rebirth. "The Key of Time and Space can not only unlock the mysteries of the ancient city, but is also the key to maintaining the balance of the world. Using it requires paying a price. Are you ready to bear all this?"
The four of them looked at each other and finally nodded unanimously. Their eyes were firm and they were ready to face anything.
"Very good, then please follow me and let our journey lead to the truth of the world." The old man turned around and led them towards the depths of the palace. Every step seemed to cross time and space, towards the unknown tomorrow.
——
When the valley returned to calm again, the passers-by who met by chance were still talking about it, and their words were full of awe and blessings for the light walker.
"Can they really do it? Find the lost city and save the world?" A child looked up and asked his father beside him.
My father smiled softly: "As long as there is light in your heart, there are infinite possibilities. The story of the Light Walker is the best proof."
At this moment, Alvin and his partners are embarking on an unknown adventure. Every step they take is full of unknowns, but it is this unknown that constitutes the most exciting part of the story and makes all the listeners moved. , longing for it.
"What kind of challenges are waiting for us next?" Klein looked at the gradually emerging outline of the ancient city, feeling both excited and uneasy in his heart.
"No matter what lies ahead, we must face it together." Su Mo's voice was firm, and her sword was already in her hand, shining with determination.
The elder Merlin was flipping through ancient books, frowning, as if looking for some clues: "The book mentions an ancient ritual, which may be the key to entering the ancient city."
Ivan nodded and held the Key of Space and Time tightly in his hand. Its brilliance became more and more obvious in the darkening environment: "Then let us uncover the mystery of all this."
As the four of them followed the mysterious guardian deeper into the palace, the surrounding environment became more and more strange. The totems carved on the stone walls seemed to come alive, emitting low chants that echoed in the empty corridors. There is an indescribable magical atmosphere in the air, which makes people feel awe.
"Look over there!" Klein pointed to an alcove, where a pair of ancient armor was placed. Its surface was covered with a faint light, which seemed to tell of the glory of the past.
"This is the equipment of the ancient elves. Only the chosen ones can control it." The guardian explained, with a hint of emotion in his voice, "Each of you is a brave man chosen by fate."
"Then how should we use these equipment?" Su Mo asked curiously, her eyes shining with eagerness to try.
"As long as you have faith, they will choose their master." The guardian waved his cane lightly, and the armor flew up on its own, surrounding Ivan and the others, and was finally equipped on them piece by piece. This scene surprised the passers-by who followed, and they all whispered to each other.
"This is simply a miracle! They are warriors chosen by God!" a woman said excitedly, her voice full of awe.
"Light Walkers, they are true legends!" a young man shouted, his eyes filled with admiration.
With the blessing of equipment, the strength of the four people has been significantly improved. They continued deeper until they stopped in front of a huge stone door. This door is engraved with complex runes, showing a majesty that refuses to be approached by mortals.
"This is the final test." The guardian's voice echoed in the empty hall. "Only through this door can you access the core secret of the ancient city, which is also the key to saving the world."
"We are ready." Ivan replied on behalf of everyone, with unyielding flames burning in their eyes.
The moment they were about to push the door open, a gust of wind blew by, bringing whispering words that seemed to warn and encourage: "Remember, light walkers, the choices in history are never easy. You have to endure The weight is enough to change the world.”
As the door slowly opened, a dazzling light burst out from inside, illuminating the entire hall. In the depths of that light, something seemed to be waiting for them, both warm and full of challenges. Alvin, Klein, Su Mo and the elder Merlin looked at each other, then took a deep breath and stepped into the unknown glory hand in hand.
"No matter what is waiting for us ahead, we will face it together and overcome it together." Ivan's words echoed in the ocean of light, not only a promise to his companions, but also an oath to all passers-by who watched them.
The door of light slowly closed behind them, leaving an eternal mark, but passers-by outside were still talking about it, their eyes full of expectation and hope.
"Will they really change the world?" A young voice sounded in the crowd.
"Who knows, child." An elder replied with a smile. His eyes looked far away at the closed valley, with a strange light shining in his eyes. "But one thing is for sure, as long as there are light walkers, there is hope." It won’t go out.”
"Look at them, how brave they are!" A young girl held her friend's hand and said excitedly, "I also want to take risks and become that kind of person."
"Everyone has a fire in their heart, they just need an opportunity to let it burn." Her friend patted her back gently, his eyes full of longing for the future.
At this time, outside the valley, the legend about the Light Walker has quietly taken root, inspiring more people to find the courage and determination in their lives. And behind this door of light, the story of the four warriors has just begun.
Ai Wen and his party stepped into a strange space, which was filled with light but empty. Suddenly, an illusory figure condensed in the sea of light and transformed into an old man in robes with a kind and wise face.
"I am the guardian of time and the memory of this ancient city." The old man's voice echoed in their minds, "You must pass three trials before you can touch the truth of time."
"Three trials?" Klein frowned, pressing the hilt of his sword, ready to deal with possible crises at any time.
"Wisdom, courage, sacrifice." The old man read out one by one, and the surrounding light began to gather into three portals, each of which contained different scenes.
"Do we have to pass separately?" Su Mo asked, with both worry and determination in her eyes.
"That's right, only by uniting as one can your strength surpass the limit." After the old man finished speaking, he turned into a ray of light and disappeared into the air.
Without much hesitation, the four of them split up. Ivan walked towards the portal representing wisdom. Inside the door was a complicated maze, and every step tested his understanding and application of knowledge; Klein stepped into the door of courage, which was an infinite battlefield that required him to use sword and shield. Prove his will and strength; Su Mo faces The door is the door of sacrifice, which is one dilemma after another, requiring her to make sacrifices between personal emotions and the overall situation; and the elder Merlin has stepped into an abyss of knowledge, where ancient books and unsolved mysteries are hidden. , he needs to use his wisdom to unlock these ancient secrets.
Time passed, and I don’t know how long it took. When the four of them got together again, there seemed to be something more in them. It was the transformation and growth they had gained after going through trials.
"We did it." Ivan looked at his partners with indescribable pride in his eyes.
"But we haven't completed the final mission yet." Klein reminded, looking firmly ahead. There is a core exuding ancient energy. It is the key to connecting the present and the past and maintaining the balance of the world.
Just as they were about to step forward, a sudden figure blocked their way. It was a woman, wearing silver armor, the spear in her hand exuded a cold light, and she had an extraordinary temperament.
"I am the successor of the Guardian, and also your final trial." The woman's voice was cold and determined, "Only a true light walker can touch this core and change destiny."
A fierce battle was inevitable, and the four people's battle with the woman was thrilling. They continued to break through themselves in the battle, until the last moment, when Ivan used the power guided by the key of time and space to successfully defuse the woman's attack and showed her The woman's expression finally softened when they were determined to change their fate.
"You... are indeed trustworthy." She put down her weapon, a flash of relief flashed in her eyes, "Go, the truth of time, and the fate of the world, are waiting for you."
As the woman moved out of the way, the four finally touched the core. An unprecedented power surged into their bodies. The entire space began to tremble, and time seemed to freeze at this moment.
"This is..." Before Ai Wen finished speaking, the surrounding scene suddenly changed. They returned to the entrance of the valley, and the mysterious ancient city was no longer there, replaced by a new greenery and calm.
"We...succeeded?" Klein looked at everything around him in disbelief.
"It seems so." The elder Merlin flipped through the ancient book. The characters on it changed after they succeeded, revealing a new prophecy.
"Our story has just begun." Su Mo said softly, with infinite expectations for the future shining in his eyes.
Just when the four of them were immersed in the joy of success and their imagination about the future, there was a sudden noise outside the valley and the crowd was restless. They quickly returned and found that more passers-by had gathered than before, everyone looking surprised and whispering to each other.
"What happened?" Ivan asked a young man who looked panicked. The young man turned around and saw the Light Walker. A hint of surprise flashed in his eyes and he answered eagerly: "Yes...it's the Dark Legion. They suddenly appeared at the border and said they were looking for the 'Relic of Light'. If they don't hand it over, they will be destroyed." Everything."(End of Chapter)
