Klein smiled, his eyes gentle and encouraging: "As long as you bravely pursue your dreams, you will realize them one day."
As night fell again, they dispersed in front of the hotel and returned to their rooms to rest and prepare for the next challenge. But in Klein's mind, one question has always lingered - who is the man behind the scenes who secretly controls everything? What is his purpose?
While Klein was immersed in thinking, a knock on the door interrupted his thoughts. Opening the door, Su Mo stood at the door, holding a pile of books and materials in his hands. "I've compiled some information about ancient relics and unknown powers that may help us learn more."
Klein invited her in, and the two sat around the table and began a long night of research. The candlelight flickered, reflecting on their focused faces, and the occasional conversation and the sound of turning pages intertwined into a late-night symphony.
"Look at this description," Su Mo pointed to a passage in an ancient book. "It is said that in ancient times, there was a hero who united different races to fight against a powerful shadow force."
Klein thoughtfully said: "Unity... This also seems to remind us that the strength of just a few of us is not enough. We need to find more allies."
"Indeed," Su Mo agreed, "Moreover, this history also mentioned a key item - the Ring of Unity, which was once a symbol of the hero uniting all races."
Klein's eyes lit up: "If we can find this Ring of Unity, maybe it can enhance our cohesion and fight against the coming threats."
"No matter what is waiting for us ahead," Su Mo's eyes became firm, "we will fight side by side until the end."
A few days later, the tranquility of the town was broken by a sudden celebration. People dressed in festive costumes, the streets were lined with colorful ribbons and lanterns, and it was very lively. It turns out that this day is a day to commemorate the great hero in the history of the Kingdom of Locke - Arthur, the Knight of Light. Hundreds of years ago, he led a coalition of various ethnic groups to defeat the rampant shadow beast and protect the tranquility of this land. .
Following the enthusiastic recommendation of the hotel owner, Klein and his party also joined the crowd at the celebration. In the central square, an old storyteller was telling the legendary story of Knight Arthur impassionedly. The children sat around him and listened fascinatedly.
"Knight Arthur held the Sword of Holy Light and fought against the most ferocious shadow beast for three days and nights. Finally, on the night of the full moon, with the help of the prayers of the entire clan, he sealed the monster in the abyss." The old man's The sound echoed in the square, attracting waves of exclamations.
After the story ended, Klein walked towards the old man and asked politely: "Old man, do you know more stories about Knight Arthur? For example, did he leave any relics or clues that can help us fight against today's crisis?"
The old man looked at Klein and his group, and a glint flashed in his eyes: "Young people, if you are truly seeking strength and wisdom, you may wish to go to the royal city and ask for an audience with King Locke. His Majesty the King has many ancient books and relics, and you may be able to find them. The answer you want.”
Just as Klein and others were surprised by this sudden proposal, a sealed letter with a strange pattern was delivered to the hotel, and the recipient was none other than Klein. There is no text in the letter, only a carefully drawn map pointing to a remote valley outside the royal city, and an ancient secret phrase: "In the deep valley, find the souls of the heroes of the past and unlock the lock of the future."
< br>
"Does this letter have any connection with the Locke Kingdom?" Sebastian asked doubtfully.
Klein pondered for a moment and decided to accept the guidance of fate: "Whether it is the old man's suggestion or this mysterious letter, they all point to the Royal City. Perhaps our meeting with King Locke can bring us new revelations."
So, Klein and his group embarked on the journey to the Royal City. After several days of trekking, the majestic outline of the royal city gradually appeared on the horizon. The towering city walls shone golden in the sun, highlighting the glory and splendor of the Rock Kingdom.
Under the guidance of the royal city guards, they walked through the complicated corridors and spacious halls, and finally met King Locke in a gorgeously decorated living room. The king is a middle-aged man with deep eyes and a majestic yet kind face.
"Welcome, travelers from afar." King Locke's voice was gentle but powerful. "I have heard about your deeds, especially Klein. Your name has been spread throughout this land along with miracles."
Klein bowed and saluted: "Dear King, we have many questions on this trip, and at the same time we have a heart to serve the mainland and fight against evil."
The king nodded and gestured to the waiter beside him to unfold a scroll: "I understand your purpose. I have an ancient secret hidden here, related to a hero from the past - Knight Arthur. He once left a The relic is called the 'Key of Hope'. Legend has it that only those with a pure heart and a strong will can unlock its true power."
After that, the king handed them a delicate box inlaid with various gems: "In this box is the 'Key of Hope'. But I must remind you that someone is peeping in the dark, trying to obtain this power for their own use. You The journey will not be easy, but remember that real power comes from inner belief and trust between teams.”
Klein took the box and felt the heavy responsibility: "We will not betray your trust, and we will never let this power fall into the hands of evil people."
When we left the royal city, the setting sun was like blood, dyeing the sky a magnificent red. On the way back, Klein opened the mysterious box, and inside lay a key that emitted a faint light.
"This key feels like the key to the secret voice of the valley." Ivan stared at the key and whispered.
"It's time to go to the valley and solve all the mysteries." Klein's eyes were firm.
At this time, in that remote and hidden corner, the unknown figure showed a playful smile again: "Very good, Klein, you are entering the puzzle I set step by step... But the game has just begun. .”
Klein carefully put the "Key of Hope" in his arms, and the five of them once again embarked on a journey to find the answer. Following the guidance of the ancient secret language, they passed through dense forests, climbed steep mountains, and finally came to the remote and mysterious valley. The mist in the valley seems to hide countless unsolved mysteries.
"This place has an unusual aura." Sebastian observed the surroundings vigilantly and tightened his grip on the weapon in his hand.
"Indeed, there must be the answer we are looking for in the valley." Su Mo followed closely, his eyes shining with the desire for knowledge.
As they went deeper, they discovered an ancient ruins, with grooves matching the shape of the "Key of Hope" carved into the stone walls. Klein stepped forward and carefully inserted the key. In an instant, the interior of the ruins glowed brightly, and a stone door slowly opened, revealing a deep passage.
"It seems we have found the right place." Ivan said with uncontrollable excitement in his tone.
At the end of the passage is a magnificent hall, with a stone statue standing in the center. It is the legendary hero - Arthur, the Knight of Light. On the base of the statue, a ring shining with soft light lies quietly. It is the legendary "Ring of Unity".
Klein reached out and picked up the ring. A warm power surged out from the ring, instantly resonating with the new power in his body. He felt an unprecedented strong connection - not only with his companions, but also with those who fought for the light in history. the will of the heroes.
"This is the Ring of Unity..." Klein said softly, his eyes getting wet.
"Wear it, Klein." Su Mo encouraged, "Let it become a symbol of our team's strength."
Klein put the ring on his finger. At that moment, the tacit understanding and strength between the five people reached an unprecedented height. They know that the real challenge is coming, but they are no longer alone, but have each other and the inheritance of history.
Just as they were about to leave, a powerful dark aura suddenly swept from the depths of the valley and enveloped the entire ruins. A deep voice echoed in the air: "Yes, you did find the Ring of Unity, but you also happened to fall into my trap."
The unknown figure slowly stepped into the light and shadow, revealing his true appearance. It was a man wearing a black robe with cunning eyes.
"Are you the one who has been secretly manipulating everything?" Klein asked sharply.
A cold smile appeared on the corner of the man in black robe: "Yes, Klein, I have been observing you, and your growth has exceeded my imagination. But now, it is time for this power to return to its true owner."
"We won't let you get what you want!" Sebastian roared and rushed forward, followed by the other three, ready to fight.
The battle was about to break out, and the collision of light and darkness stirred up a sky full of light and shadow, and the entire valley trembled. In this fierce battle, Klein and others gradually gained the upper hand with their newly acquired strength and the protection of the Ring of Unity.
At the critical moment, Klein used the power of the "Key of Hope" to launch a decisive blow, aimed directly at the heart of the man in black robe. The light shone brightly, and when the light dissipated, the man in black robe disappeared, leaving only nothingness.
"He escaped," Alvin gasped.
Klein put away the "Key of Hope" and looked around at his partners with a firm voice: "No matter where he escapes, we will find him and end this crisis completely. Because we are friends, comrades-in-arms, and guardians of the light. ”
"Yes, until the last moment." Everyone responded in unison, with unyielding flames burning in their eyes.
As the night deepened, they embarked on the road back. Although they knew that the road ahead was still full of unknowns and challenges, their hearts were extremely strong because of their unity.
"Klein, this time we not only exposed a conspiracy, but more importantly, we learned what true unity is." Su Mo said softly, looking at the stars.
Klein lowered his head and pondered, a trace of solemnity flashed in his eyes. At this time, the communication talisman in his pocket suddenly vibrated, and an ominous premonition came to his mind. He pulled out the talisman paper and saw that the writing on it was twisted and strange, as if it contained a whisper from the abyss: "Klein, do you think you have escaped my grasp? Naive. The real game begins now..." < br>
"Everyone, be careful, we may be in trouble." Klein quickly showed the talisman to his companions with a serious tone.
Su Mo frowned, while Alvin and Sebastian quickly got into fighting stances, and the air was filled with tension.
"Klein, this information...is it about the man in black robe?" Su Mo asked in a low voice, unable to hide the worry in his voice.
"That's right, and he seems to know every move we make." Klein's eyes were sharp and he was already calculating in his heart. "We must take action immediately and cannot let him lead us by the nose."
"But where are we going to find him now? Just with these provocative words?" Ivan questioned.
Klein held the Ring of Unity tightly, and the power surging in his heart brought him inspiration: "Do you still remember the secret words in that letter? 'In the valley of the valley, search for the souls of the past heroes and unlock the future.' Maybe, the answer is Right where we were first led - that remote valley."
Everyone looked at each other and read determination in each other's eyes. Without any extra words, they quickly packed up and prepared to return to the mysterious valley and reveal the true face of the devil.
As night fell, the group of people sneaked back into the valley quietly. Under the moonlight, the once peaceful place now looked particularly eerie. They carefully avoid traps and use the experience and intuition accumulated in their adventures to head deeper into the valley.
Finally, in front of a cave obscured by shadows, they discovered a portal wrapped in dark energy. The malice exuded by that energy made everyone feel uneasy, but Klein's eyes were extremely firm: "This is where we are facing, not only the man in black robe, but also the deeper darkness behind him."< br>
They approached step by step, and the "Key of Hope" in Klein's hand glowed faintly, seeming to be responding to some kind of call. At this moment, a sneer came from the depths of the cave, and the man in black robe slowly walked out. This time, he was surrounded by several twisted demons.
"Welcome to my territory, Klein." The black-robed man's tone was full of pride, "Now, let's see if unity and hope can fight against pure darkness."
The battle was about to break out, and the demons rushed at them with their teeth and claws bared, but Klein and his companions were fearless and fought back one by one with exquisite coordination. The Ring of Unity radiates a dazzling light, amplifying their power and making every attack more deadly. During the fierce battle, Klein found an opportunity and used the "Key of Hope" to launch a direct attack on the man in black robe. The key turned into a spear of light, passed through all obstacles, and hit the black-robed man's chest directly. With a shrill scream, the figure of the man in black robe gradually disappeared, but his smile was extremely weird: "Klein, do you think you can eliminate me like this? Remember, the darkness will never end..." (End of this chapter)
