Chapter 742 Just because


"Look, even the stars in the sky seem to be guiding us." A little girl with clear eyes pointed to the sky. Her innocence infected everyone present.

"The little girl said it well, the stars are indeed our best navigation." An old navigator answered, pointing his wrinkled fingers into the distance, "Just as we rely on the stars to cross the sea, we will also travel along the The light within, transcends this endless darkness.”

The night was getting deeper and deeper, but the discussions around the campfire became more and more lively. In the midst of such encouragement and mutual encouragement, an unprecedented cohesion was quietly generated in the team. They are not just explorers, but also brave men chosen by the light, ready to face the challenges and trials ahead.

"Friends, it's time to rest." Leah's gentle voice interrupted everyone's conversation, her face filled with maternal love, "Tomorrow, we will continue to move forward, and it is important to maintain physical strength."< br>


The crowd gradually became quiet, and everyone fell asleep with the longing for tomorrow in their hearts. In dreams, they are either galloping on the battlefield where light and darkness intertwine, or they are standing on the top of the world, announcing the arrival of light to the world.

At dawn, when the first ray of sunlight penetrated the icy fog and illuminated the camp, people were already ready to go. Sebastian, Su Mo, Leah and their new partners, with indestructible faith, embarked on a journey to the deepest part of the frozen ruins again.

"Get ready, messengers of light." Sebastian's voice was extremely clear in the early morning air, "Today, we will lift up the fog of history together and let light shine on the earth."

They took steps forward, and behind them were fishermen and other villagers who could not accompany them, waving their arms, with tears in their eyes, a mixture of worry and pride. And the backs of this group of people looked extremely tall against the rising sun, as if they could really create miracles and change their destiny.

"Until the light fills every corner, until the darkness has no place to hide." Su Mo whispered, his eyes looking into the distance, which passed through many obstacles and touched a distant but real vision.

Leah smiled and said softly: "Yes, until that day comes. But before that, what we have to do is to keep moving forward and use our stories to light up the hope of others."

Just as the group was leaving a string of firm footprints on the ice sheet, heading towards the depths of unknown and hope, Su Mo suddenly stopped and looked solemn. He held a letter between his fingers that had just been delivered by a strange mechanical bird. This sudden episode made the surrounding air suddenly tense.

"What happened, Su Mo?" Liya was keenly aware of the strangeness, walked quickly to him, and locked her eyes tightly on the letter.

Su Mo took a deep breath and slowly unfolded the letter. A few lines of writing jumped into everyone's eyes, and there was an ominous atmosphere between the lines: "Brothers of light, although your journey is bright, it also attracts prying eyes from the shadows. Someone is planning to end your journey under the cover of night. Be careful, the sharp blade in the dark is approaching quietly. ”

When Sebastian heard this, his face darkened. He looked around, vigilantly examining every possible hidden threat: "Who is it? Why would anyone want to stop us?"

"The letter didn't say it clearly, but I have a hunch that this is closely related to the fragment of light we are looking for and the truth behind it." Su Mo's eyes became extremely determined, "We can't stop, let alone retreat. Now, we must Be more vigilant and jointly respond to the coming crisis.”

When the friends gathered around heard this, their faces showed unyielding and decisive expressions. The young scholar tightened the ancient book in his hand and said resolutely: "Although I am not good at martial arts, I am willing to use knowledge as a shield to overcome difficulties with everyone."

The former warrior, old and brave, patted the young man next to him on the shoulder: "Child, fighting is not just about swinging a sword, but also about perseverance and belief. Tonight, let us teach you how to use the power of your heart to Resist the invasion of the dark night.”

As night falls, the bonfire is lit again, but this time, it is no longer just for warmth and lighting, but has become a symbol of unity and resistance to the unknown undercurrent. Sebastian organized a rotating vigil, and Su Mo began to try to decipher the identity and motives of the possible assassin based on the tips in the letter.

"We must take the initiative and find each other's weaknesses." Su Mo said in a low voice after thinking for a moment.

Leia nodded in agreement: "I can use my shield to strengthen the defense of the camp, and at the same time, I can sense changes in the surroundings. In this way, even if the enemy is hiding in the dark, we have a chance to fight back."

At midnight, with the cold wind and bright moonlight, the entire camp was immersed in deathly silence. Only the vigilant eyes of the night watchman flickered in the night. Suddenly, a slight sound broke the tranquility, and an agile assassin appeared like a ghost on the edge of the camp, the dagger in his hand shining with cold light.

Just when the assassin thought he could easily succeed, Su Mo's voice sounded from all directions: "Come out. Since you are here, why not show up and talk?"

The figure was startled, and then sneered: "Wise choice, Messenger of Light. But do you think that knowing who I am can change anything?"

"At least we can know who is afraid of the light enough to use such despicable means." Leia's voice was calm but full of power. Her shield expanded silently, invisibly blocking all the assassin's escape routes.

The assassin showed a trace of panic, but he quickly regained his composure, and a flash of determination flashed in his eyes: "I am just a pawn. The ones who really want to stop you are the shadow nobles who are afraid of the coming of the bright era. They will extinguish your group at all costs. The fire of hope.”

"Then let them give it a try." Sebastian's sword is already in his hand, sharp and sharp. "We will not stop, because the light always needs someone to defend it."

At this critical moment, the old man who had been a soldier stepped forward. Although his body was old, he was majestic and said: "Child, let me teach you the last lesson - justice, never give up."

As soon as the old man finished speaking, an indescribable energy surged around him, which was the tenacity and glory accumulated over the years. He slowly walked toward the assassin, each step creating a soul-stirring echo, as if the glorious war songs of the past were playing again under his feet.

"You...you are..." The assassin's voice trembled, and the fear in his eyes could no longer be concealed. In the face of such momentum, even the killer in the shadow could not help but reveal his true nature of fear.

"The former guardian is still the same today." The old man smiled faintly, and at some point an old sword appeared in his hand. Although the sword was mottled, it exuded an unyielding light. He raised his sword, and that simple movement seemed to condense all the battle wisdom and passion for life in the past.

"Then, let's see whether your so-called 'shadow nobles' are more powerful, or whether the will of mortals is stronger under the light." Sebastian took a step forward and stood side by side with the old man, the tip of his sword tilted Pointing to the ground, his blue eyes burned with undying fighting spirit.

Leah raised her hands high, and a soft but powerful light bloomed from her palms, gradually spreading and covering the entire camp, forming an almost physical barrier of light to protect them. "Don't worry, no one can cross this boundary tonight."

Although the young scholar did not directly participate in the preparations for the battle, he was quickly flipping through ancient books on the side, sometimes frowning in thought, sometimes whispering in a low voice, as if looking for any knowledge or enlightenment that might help the team.

Seeing this, the assassin raised a wry smile and slowly lowered his weapon: "I lost, Lightbrers. My mission failed, but please remember my warning, the power of the shadow nobles is far beyond your imagination."< br>


"We will remember it." Su Mo stepped forward and confiscated the assassin's weapon with sharp eyes, "But we also ask you to take a message back: light will eventually shine on every inch of land, and no matter how deep the darkness is, it cannot last forever. Block out the sun.”

Under the gaze of everyone, the assassin finally disappeared into the night, leaving behind not only a warning, but also an affirmation of the firm determination of the Lightbringers.

"Tonight, we kept the light." Leah looked around at her friends with uncontrollable excitement in her voice.

"Tomorrow, we will continue to move forward, no matter how many difficulties and obstacles lie ahead." Sebastian's words were resounding, and his eyes were unwavering, as if he had foreseen the victory in the future.

"That's right." Su Mo added with a smile, "Every step is closer to the light. And all this is because we trust each other and face it together."

As the night progressed, the camp became peaceful again, but this time the tranquility was no longer a simple sleep, but contained anticipation and fearlessness for tomorrow's challenges. Finally, it was a gentle but powerful conversation that brought the day to a close.

"We are not only pursuing the light, but also becoming the light for others." Leah looked at the starry sky, with a gentle light shining in her eyes.

"That's right." Sebastian responded softly, "Let those who are groping in the dark see the direction of hope."

"Then, no matter how long the night is, we will persevere." Su Mo clenched his fists and spoke firmly.

"Yes," a passing old fisherman suddenly stopped and joined the conversation, his face full of awe and gratitude, "because of you, we believe that the end of the night must be dawn."

"Look, even the old man said so!" A curious child squeezed through the crowd, his little face full of admiration, "Mom said, you are like the heroes in ancient times, who can defeat the dragon and protect the village!"< br>


The child's mother stroked his head gently, with a hint of pride in her smile: "Yes, they are real heroes, using their courage and wisdom to light our way."

These simple words caused ripples in the crowd. Each voice was an affirmation and encouragement to the light messengers, like a warm force quietly gathering around them.

Just when the atmosphere was warm, a young traveler hurried over. His expression was both surprised and excited: "Have you heard about the confrontation just now? Even the nearby villages were spreading the word, saying that an old soldier used him to The immortal spirit intimidates the enemy! ”

Hearing this, Su Mo turned his eyes gently to the old man who was a warrior: "Look, teacher, your bravery not only protects us, but also inspires more people."

The old man smiled and shook his head: "It is not my fault alone, it is all of us, and those who pray for us in the dark."

Leah looked around everyone, with a firm light shining in her eyes: "That's it. Each of us is a beam of light in this light. Although it is small, when gathered together, it can illuminate the deepest darkness."< br>


At this time, a gust of wind blew by, and the sparks of the bonfire jumped, reflecting on everyone's face. It was not only the warm firelight, but also the fire of hope in the heart.

"Tomorrow, we will embark on a new journey." Sebastian said solemnly, with both expectation for the unknown and fear of challenges in his tone. "But I know that no matter what the road ahead is, you will always be there." When you are around, the light will never be far away.”

"And I will continue to record and pass on our stories to future generations." The young scholar held the ancient book with unprecedented determination in his eyes, "Let the people of the future know that there was once such a group of people who were brave and brave for the sake of the light. Move forward.”

The stars in the night sky seemed a little brighter, as if even the universe was listening to their vows and witnessing this unyielding belief.

"Then," Su Mo raised the letter in his hand, with an undoubted power in his voice, "tomorrow, we will not only reveal the true face of the shadow nobles, but also prove that light is always stronger than darkness."

"Lightbringers, good night." Leia said softly. Her shield slowly closed up, turning into circles of warm halo, and finally disappeared into the air. "May the light lead us until the last moment."


"Good night, may the sun shine brighter tomorrow." Sebastian echoed, gently sheathing his sword, revealing an unspoken solemnity in his movements.

"Good night." The young scholar whispered, touching the pen tip lightly on the paper, as if he was talking to history in another way. Everyone around the campfire dispersed, preparing to face tomorrow's challenges, and the belief radiating from the inside out made this night particularly unusual.

The next morning, the first ray of sunlight penetrated the mist and shone on the camp. Everyone was ready to go, Sebastian's sword reflected dazzling light in the sun, Leah's shield seemed to be given new power, and the young scholar's eyes shone with a desire for knowledge and a longing for the future. The old soldier stood at the front of the team. Although his body was no longer strong, his eyes were firmer than ever. He said softly: "Let's go, children, a bright future is waiting for us to create." During the march, They passed through one small town after another, and their stories were told in every place. The children were running, vying to pass on the legend of the Lightbringer, while the weather-beaten villagers looked at them with an almost pious look and whispered. (End of chapter)
