Sebastian closed his eyes, placed his palms on the cold ground, and used the power of the earth to sense his surroundings: "There is an ancient and sleeping power here, and the temple should be in the center of the city... Moreover, it seems that there is another Something is waiting for us there.”
As the three of them went deeper into the ruins, an indescribable sense of tension gradually filled the air. When they pushed open the heavy door of the temple, there was no bright treasure inside as expected, but darkness. Only an ancient book lay quietly on the altar, emitting a faint light, as if telling the story of the years. story.
"Part of the Book of Light..." Klein slowly stepped forward and reached out to touch it, but hesitated in mid-air.
"Be careful, Klein, this book is obviously not simple." Ivan reminded, his arrows already in the bow, ready to deal with any emergencies.
Just when Klein's fingertips were about to touch the page, an old and majestic voice echoed in the temple: "You are finally here, seekers of light. I am the last watchman of the temple, and my mission is I am waiting here to entrust the book of light to the chosen one.”
The source of the sound gradually became clearer. An old man in a shabby robe slowly walked out of the shadows. With a tap of the staff in his hand, the candles in the entire temple lit up instantly, illuminating every corner and letting the book The cover is more eye-catching.
"Accept this important task, son of light. But please remember that knowledge is power and burden. What is recorded in the book is the balance of light and darkness, and is also the key to fight against the Shadow Weaver. The road ahead , It won’t be easier than before.” The old man’s words were full of warning.
Klein nodded cautiously, exchanged a firm look with Alvin and Sebastian, and then stretched out their hands together and touched the book of light that contained endless knowledge and power.
The moment the three people's fingers touched the page, a warm and majestic power surged out of the book, turned into a river of light, and poured into their bodies. In the temple, the light was so bright that even the ancient murals seemed to be given life and began to tell the legends of past heroes.
"Look! What a spectacular scene this is!" A passing caravan member saw the vision in the direction of the temple from a distance, stopped involuntarily, and exclaimed to his companions.
"Is it a miracle? I have never seen such a scene in my life. The light seems to be able to purify the darkness in people's hearts." An old man held the rosary in his hand tightly, his eyes full of piety and awe.
"Those three must be the chosen warriors, the legendary Sons of Light!" A little girl pulled on the corner of her mother's clothes, her eyes shining with longing.
Within the temple, Klein, Alvin, and Sebastian felt drastic changes in the power within their bodies, as if countless knowledge and wisdom were surging in their minds, giving them a new understanding of the world.
"This is... the true meaning of light, and the secret to fighting shadow." Klein murmured to himself, his eyes shining with unprecedented determination and determination.
"The Book of Light is indeed worthy of its reputation. Our power is enough to change the pattern of the world." Ivan clenched the bow in his hand, and his power was ready to go.
Sebastian smiled slightly, and his face became more determined under the light: "Not only power, but also responsibility. We have embarked on a road of no return, and we must move forward for the sake of light."
The three people walked out of the temple, and the light dissipated, and the temple returned to its former tranquility and solemnity. The old man smiled slightly and turned into a ray of light and merged into the book, leaving only one sentence echoing in the air: "Remember, the light will always be with you."
"Where should we go next? What clues does the Book of Light give?" Ivan looked around and asked.
Klein opened the book, and a line of text slowly appeared before their eyes: "In the far north, there are ancient ruins of light. Only by looking for the lost fragments can we unlock the true power of light and fight against the coming shadow."
"The Far North... It is said that there are secrets there that even time has forgotten." Sebastian frowned, feeling both excited and worried about the unknown journey.
"No matter what, since we have accepted this mission, we must move forward unstoppably." Klein put away the Book of Light with a firm look in his eyes.
Just as the three of them were preparing to embark on a new journey, a rush of footsteps interrupted their conversation. A young courier came running out of breath, holding a letter with a strange seal in his hand.
"Warriors, this is urgent news, a secret letter from the Council of Light. Please check it immediately!" The messenger's face was full of anxiety, and it was obvious that he had traveled a long distance.
Klein opened the envelope and read the contents of the letter with a solemn expression: "The Shadow Weavers have not given up. They are planning a big conspiracy against all the Children of Light. We must act immediately to stop them."
"No matter how difficult it is ahead, as long as we fight side by side, the light will never go out." Ivan patted Klein on the shoulder, and his persevering words inspired the hearts of everyone present.
Sebastian smiled, and the confidence revealed in that smile infected everyone around him: "Then, let us set off again, towards the far north, towards a bright future!"
"Let's go, there is no time to waste." Klein closed the letter, put it away carefully, and looked firmly into the distance.
The three of them quickly got ready. Just as they turned around to leave, passers-by gathered around them. The expressions on their faces varied, some were surprised, some were shocked, and some were incredibly envious.
"Are you really going to challenge the conspiracy of the Shadow Weaver? That is an existence that even the king's army dare not easily provoke!" A farmer holding an iron hoe couldn't help but ask, with a look in his eyes. Awe, but also a bit of anticipation.
"Yes, this is our responsibility as children of light." Ivan's answer was brief but powerful. The determination in her eyes made everyone present feel a courage that should not be underestimated.
"It's amazing. I have never seen brave men like you." An old woman touched the pendant on her chest with trembling hands, which was a symbol of her belief in light. "Please come back safely. Our world needs you.”
"Don't worry, grandma, the light will always shine on our way forward." Sebastian smiled gently, his smile seemed to have magic power and made people feel reassured.
As the three people's backs gradually faded away, bursts of discussion came from the crowd:
"Are they really the chosen ones? It feels like the legendary heroes reappear."
"Hope they can succeed, after all, the threat of the Shadow makes everyone live in fear."
"I really envy them that they can fight for a great goal. If only I could..."
During the journey, Klein, Alvin, and Sebastian encountered various tests, from monsters in the wilderness to villages eroded by shadows. Every time the crisis was resolved, their reputation quietly spread among the people. Passers-by spread the word by word of mouth, and they have become the talk of people after dinner. They are also the heroes that countless children yearn for.
"Mom, when I grow up, I want to be a warrior like Klein, who protects the world from shadows!" A little boy looked up at the sky, his eyes shining with the light of dreams.
"Hey, if only it were that simple. However, it's always good to have dreams." His mother smiled and touched the child's head, but there was a hint of hope in her eyes.
Just as the news that the group was about to arrive in the Far North spread throughout the country, causing quite a stir, they were already standing in front of the entrance to the legendary Ruins of Light. The biting cold wind seemed to penetrate the soul, but their hearts were burning with a fire that was hotter than ever.
"This is it, the ancient ruins of the Far North." Klein said softly, his voice appearing particularly clear in the empty ice field.
"It seems that this place is not deserted as rumored." Ivan observed the surroundings vigilantly, his arrow already on the string, ready to respond to emergencies at any time.
"Indeed, the energy fluctuations here are very unusual." Sebastian closed his eyes and communicated with the earth again. His perception was sharper than ever before.
Just as the three of them were about to enter the ruins, a low and magnetic voice sounded behind them: "Welcome to the intersection of light and darkness, and pursue the sons of light."
They turned around suddenly and saw a mysterious man wearing a black robe, his face hidden by a hood, slowly walking towards them. His appearance made the air around him seem to freeze a bit.
"Who are you?" Klein asked, with the Blade of Light already in his hand, vigilant and respectful.
The mysterious man smiled slightly, with some vicissitudes and wisdom in his voice: "I am just a speck of dust in the long river of history, but I know the answer you are looking for. Come with me, the secret of the Book of Light will be revealed soon."< br>
After saying that, he turned around and walked into the depths of the ruins, leaving Klein and the three of them looking at each other in confusion.
"What should I do?" Ivan asked in a low voice, a trace of hesitation flashed in her eyes.
"Whether he is an enemy or a friend, since we know the secret of the Book of Light, we cannot miss this opportunity." Klein made a decisive decision and took steps.
Sebastian followed, whispering: "I hope this isn't a trap."
As the three of them went deeper into the ruins, the light became darker and darker until they were completely immersed in darkness, with only the mysterious man's voice leading them forward. Suddenly, a glimmer of light appeared in front of him. It was another part of the Book of Light, which was quietly suspended on an ancient altar, releasing a soft yet majestic radiance.
"This is the true starting point and end point of your journey." The mysterious man stepped aside and showed a see-through smile.
The three of Klein looked at each other, without saying anything to each other, and walked forward together. This time, they touched the Book of Light without hesitation, because their intuition told them that this was the key to uncovering all mysteries.
When they opened their eyes again, the world around them seemed to have changed. Time and space were intertwined here, and memories of the past and prophecies of the future were intertwined. The true meaning of the Book of Light is completely revealed at this moment. It is not only power, but also a profound understanding and perception of the world and life.
"I see..." Klein's voice was filled with shock and understanding.
"Light and shadow are never absolute opposites, but interdependent and transforming each other." Ivan sighed softly.
"And our mission is to lead the world toward light in this delicate balance." Sebastian added, with an unprecedented sense of mission shining in his eyes.
The three people walked out of the ruins, and the sky was already turning white. They knew that new challenges were waiting ahead, but their hearts were more determined than ever.
"What will we face next?" Ivan asked, her voice full of determination to prepare for the challenge.
"No matter what, as long as we are together, there is no difficulty that cannot be overcome." Klein held Alvin and Sebastian's hands, and the three of them looked at each other and smiled. The trust and friendship were stronger than any words. .
"Then, keep moving forward, towards the unknown, towards a bright future." Sebastian's words were full of passion.
Just as they were about to take steps, a gust of wind blew by, bringing a distant murmur, which seemed to be the whisper of all things in the world, and also seemed to be the call of the long river of history.
"Wait a minute, did you hear that?" Klein stopped and listened.
Alvin and Sebastian also calmed down, closed their eyes, and the surrounding voices gradually became clearer. Those murmurs converged into one sentence, which echoed in their hearts: "The real trial has just begun."
The three people suddenly opened their eyes and looked at each other for a moment. They all saw the same determination and unyieldingness in each other's eyes.
"It seems that the road to light is far more complicated and longer than we imagined." Klein took a deep breath and clenched the Blade of Light in his hand.
"But it's also an opportunity for growth, isn't it?" Ivan's tone was full of expectation and desire for challenge. "Every time we overcome difficulties, we will be closer to the bright truth."
"That's right. I can't wait to see what other trials are waiting for us." Sebastian's smile contained a hint of cunning, as if he was full of expectations for what was to come.
At this time, a passerby passed by in a hurry and overheard their conversation. He couldn't help but stop and said with shock: "You...are what you said true? There are more trials? Don't you know that light and Has the dark battle never ended since ancient times? ”
Klein turned to look at him, his eyes flashing: "It is precisely because there is no end that we have to stand up, right? Bring even a little change to the world for those who cannot fight." The passers-by were stunned. Then a look of admiration flashed in his eyes: "Yes, with people like you, maybe something can really change. Please stick to it, we will be here to pray for you."
