Just as the people in the caravan reluctantly left, a dazzling light flashed across the northern sky, causing everyone to look up.
"Is it the guidance of the fragments of light?" Su Mo pondered, his eyes flashing with desire for the unknown.
"No matter what kind of trials lie ahead, we will stand side by side until the end of the world." Sebastian clenched his fists, and his determination infected everyone.
As night fell, the three of them sat around the simple camp, the stars reflecting on their resolute faces. A conversation unfolded quietly in the quiet night.
"Have you ever thought about why us?" Leah suddenly spoke, with deep thoughts in her eyes.
Su Mo smiled with soft eyes: "Maybe it's because each of us has an eternal flame in our hearts, and when we come together, we can become the light that illuminates the world."
Sebastian chuckled and patted the two of them on the shoulders: "No matter what the reason is, the important thing is that now, we are here, for the greater mission, for the coming dawn."
The conversation gradually fell silent, and they looked to the north, where unsolved mysteries hid and endless possibilities arose. The conversation under the night sky brought a temporary pause to their journey and also laid the foundation for the following story.
"Tomorrow, we are about to step into the unknown," Su Mo's voice was calm but full of power, "But with you here, I have nothing to fear."
"Similarly, with you walking together, even the ice at the end of the world cannot stop us." Leah's eyes flashed with determination, as if she had foreseen the upcoming challenges and victories.
Sebastian raised the sword in his hand, and the tip of the sword gently cut across the night sky, as if drawing a path of hope for the starry sky, "Then, let us turn this belief into a weapon that will break through the ice tomorrow." Power.”
Just as they were immersed in endless reverie about the future, a burst of rapid and slight footsteps broke the tranquility around them. A small figure walked out of the night, and it turned out to be the fisherman they had met during the day. He was panting, his eyes flashing with unprecedented urgency and excitement.
"Please forgive me for interrupting, but there is news that I must tell you." The fisherman's voice trembled slightly, but he could not conceal his excitement. "I just met a strange traveler by the lake. He said Talking about the 'Prophecy of Light', he said that in the frozen ruins in the north, there is the key to what you are looking for. He also left a mark that only true apostles of light can understand."
As he spoke, the fisherman opened his palm, and in his palm was a complex pattern condensed by frost, which was crystal clear and emitted a faint blue light. The three of them exchanged glances, doubts and expectations emerging in their hearts at the same time.
"It seems that the wheel of fate has begun to turn." Su Mo murmured in a low voice, staring at the mark, and understanding gradually emerged in his eyes.
"No matter who the traveler is, since he has pointed out the way, we cannot live up to this guidance." Leah tightened her grip on the staff in her hand, as if she could draw more power from it.
"Act, time will not wait for those who hesitate." Sebastian put away his sword, his words carrying unquestionable determination.
The three of them embarked on the journey again. In the night, they left a string of firm footprints behind them, which seemed to be a farewell to the past and an oath to the future. The fisherman stood there, looking at their backs until they disappeared into the vast ice field, and he couldn't help but feel a sense of high respect in his heart.
"It's really breathtaking. They will definitely be able to find the answer and bring about change." The fisherman murmured to himself, then turned around and continued his ordinary but no longer ordinary life with new hope.
In the north, the ruins blocked by ancient prophecies and ice are quietly waiting for the arrival of the three brave men, as if the gears of fate have carefully arranged everything, just waiting for the most critical link to fall into it, starting a war. An unprecedented adventure.
"The prophecy of light..." Su Mo repeated the fisherman's words, his eyes flashing with longing for the unknown, "This mark feels familiar and strange at the same time, as if it had an indissoluble bond with me a long time ago."
Leah took a closer look at the frost mark and whispered: "It exudes gentle energy and seems to be guiding us. We must solve this mystery and find the 'key' that the traveler said."
Sebastian seemed more practical: "No matter what the road ahead is, our first priority is to reach the frozen ruins safely. The road to the north is extremely dangerous, so we can't be careless at all."
They quickened their pace, the cold wind blowing on their faces, and it seemed that even the air was telling the call of ancient legends. On the way, they occasionally encounter scattered travelers or tribes. Whenever this happens, they are always attracted by the equipment and temperament of these brave men, and can't help but come forward to ask.
"Are you the legendary messengers of light?" A young man wrapped in thick fur came around curiously, his eyes filled with admiration.
"We are just a group of travelers looking for the truth." Su Mo smiled faintly, but his words seemed to arouse the boy's curiosity even more.
"I heard that the true bringer of light can dispel the darkness and bring peace. You will definitely find the ancient secret and make the world a better place!" The boy's words floated in the wind, arousing the resonance of the people around him. For a moment, , eyes of amazement and anticipation focused on the three of them.
"Little brother, your words encourage us." Sebastian patted the young man on the shoulder, "We will do our best to meet everyone's expectations."
They continued to move forward, and every night there would be people sitting around the campfire, telling stories about the Lightbringer and the ancient prophecies. These stories are like invisible ties that closely connect them with the people of this land.
Finally, after an adventure over a steep ice wall, they arrived at the entrance to the frozen ruins. It was a huge ice sculpture carved by the years. The door was ajar, and a faint blue light came out from inside, which was mysterious and unpredictable.
"This is it." Su Mo's tone revealed uncontrollable excitement, "The answer we are looking for may be behind the door."
"Be careful." Leia reminded, her protective barrier had already been quietly deployed to protect them.
Sebastian drew his sword and stepped into the ruins first, taking every step cautiously and firmly. "No matter what we encounter, we face it together."
As they went deeper, subtle echoes came from the frozen ruins, like the whispers of history, telling about the glory and loss of the past. In the center of a huge ice room, there is a sculpture that exudes soft light. It is the image of the Apostle of Light, holding a fragment of light and containing profound wisdom in his eyes.
"Found it!" Leah whispered, and they walked slowly around the sculpture. Everyone felt an indescribable shock.
"Fragments of light, the legendary artifact..." Su Mo reached out to touch the sculpture. As soon as his fingertips touched the cold surface, the entire space suddenly vibrated and radiated with brilliance.
"This is..." Before Sebastian could finish his words, he saw the light fragments in the sculpture suddenly detached and floated in front of the three people, emitting a warm light, illuminating the entire ice room as if it were daytime.
"When the prophecy of light comes true, the true apostle of light will appear and lead the world to light..." An ancient and solemn voice sounded in their hearts. It was a communication that transcended words and directly touched the depths of the soul.
"We... what should we do?" Leah's voice was slightly trembling, but the determination in her eyes remained unchanged.
In the light, it seems that the will of countless sages is guiding, and finally condensed into one sentence: "Follow the light in your heart, and the road of light is already unfolding under your feet."
This...is this the trust and test that chooses us? "Sebastian gripped the hilt of the sword tightly, his eyes burning.
"It's not only a test, but also a responsibility." Su Mo took a deep breath and looked at the other two people. "The meeting of the three of us is no accident. Leah's shield protects and your sword opens the way forward. And my interpretation of ancient wisdom—all for this moment.”
"The fragments of light have chosen us to uncover the truth about the world and lead it to a new era." Leah's voice was full of a sense of mission. She gently touched the halo surrounding her, as if she could feel it. Contains strength and hope.
Just as they were immersed in this sudden mission, there was a sudden rush of footsteps outside the ruins, accompanied by a hurried call: "Wait a moment, fellow light messengers, please wait a moment!"
The three of them looked at each other in surprise, and then quickly returned to the entrance of the ruins. They saw the fisherman leading several travelers in different clothes, and their eyes were also burning with hope.
"Your deeds have spread around. We are people from different places, but we all hold the same dream." The fisherman introduced, "We are willing to join you to face the unknown ahead and pursue the light."
"Look, even passers-by are attracted to you." An old man in a robe smiled slightly, his eyes were deep and wise, "I have studied ancient books for many years, and I may be able to decipher more clues to prophecies for you."
"I was once a warrior. Although I am old, I am still willing to wield my last sword for the light." Another burly old man patted his chest, with determination in his voice that could not be ignored.
Looking at this group of friends who come from all over the world and share the same ideals, Sebastian, Su Mo and Leia smiled at each other. This is not only an adventure, but also a gathering of souls, where an immeasurable force is quietly gathering.
"Welcome to join. From now on, we will be in the same boat." Su Mo stretched out his hand, and his warm smile infected everyone.
"But, remember, the road ahead is unknown and full of dangers. Once you decide to follow, there is no turning back." Although Sebastian's words were harsh, they were full of concern and warning for his new partners.
"I am willing to face any challenge for the sake of the light!" A young woman stood up firmly. Her courage was like a spark, instantly igniting everyone's fighting spirit.
"Then, let us join hands to start this journey to the light." Leah closed her eyes and clasped her hands together. A soft halo of light formed around her, warm and peaceful, which seemed to give this departure a sacred character. A sense of ritual.
When they stepped into the ruins again, although there were many people, they all walked in unison, with light in their hearts and wind under their feet. The travelers passing by, the tribes guarding their own small worlds, and even the creatures on the ice fields all looked at it with awe and hope, and they seemed to feel that some kind of change was quietly taking place.
"Lightbringers, may you succeed!" the fisherman shouted behind them, his voice echoing on the ice field for a long time.
"Thank you for your trust, Mr. Fisherman, we will bring the light back." Sebastian looked back and waved, his smile looking particularly dazzling in the morning light.
In this way, the group of people headed towards the deepest part of the ruins, where the secrets of the ancient world are hidden and the hope of the new world is also carried. In the process, each of them will become an indispensable chapter in each other's stories and write their own legends.
Night falls again, and on the ice sheet, more new faces sit around the campfire. They tell different stories and share their dreams. And in this place where the lights converge, a new chapter about light, courage and hope. , is slowly unveiling its prelude...
"Tomorrow, we will witness history." Leah said softly, her eyes looking towards the bright starry sky, where there seemed to be endless secrets waiting for them to be revealed.
"Yes, Leah, tomorrow, all of us will personally reveal the truth that has been sealed by time." Su Mo responded, his eyes were firm and eager, as if he had seen the dawn of victory.
A man who looked like a young scholar stood up from the crowd, holding a shabby book tightly in his hand, with a thirst for knowledge shining in his eyes: "I have read many ancient books about the Apostles of Light. The book mentioned that the real On the road of light, there must be trials waiting for travelers. Are we about to face those trials? ”
Sebastian nodded, and the tip of his sword touched the ground lightly, making a crisp sound: "The journey is never easy, but because of this, every step we take is of great significance. No matter what challenges lie ahead, as long as we have the heart With light and unity, there is no difficulty that cannot be overcome.”
Everyone sitting around the bonfire nodded, and the atmosphere heated up with determination and hope. A short, seemingly frail old man suddenly spoke with an old and powerful voice: "In my long life, I have never seen such a scene. It is not a hero walking alone, but ordinary people holding up the light of hope together. I believe "This is the power to change the world." This sentence is like a pebble thrown into a calm lake, causing ripples in circles. People began to have heated discussions and share why they embarked on this unknown road. Although everyone's stories are different, they all point to the same end point - pursuing light and changing the world. (End of chapter)
