"Indeed." Su Mo nodded, but there was no flinching in her eyes, "But this is the meaning of our existence. Lin Hao, can you feel the nature of that power? We need to find its weakness."< br>
Lin Hao closed his eyes and concentrated, lightly touched the pendant on his chest with his fingertips, and opened his eyes after a moment: "It is the original dark energy, ancient and violent. But any force, including this dark energy, must follow the law of balance. Find it." Its opposite, the source of light, we have a chance of victory. ”
"The source of light?" the traveler thought thoughtfully, "In many ancient legends, the sources of light and darkness often conflict with each other. If you can find a corresponding holy object of light, you may be able to neutralize part of its power."
While everyone was discussing, the giant shadow in the sky made a deafening roar, and the ground trembled, as if to warn them of the consequences of the challenge.
"Time is running out." Su Mo looked at everyone, "We must take action and split up to find clues to the sacred objects of light. Jason, you lead a team of people to search for ancient ruins; Lin Hao, use your wisdom to conduct in-depth literature research; Traveler, your experience may lead us to find hidden clues. I will stay here and try to communicate with that existence to buy time.”
"Captain..." Jason hesitated a little, but when he saw Su Mo's firm gaze, he had no choice but to nod in agreement, "Let's go back quickly."
Everyone quickly dispersed and each embarked on a journey to find the holy object of light. Su Mo stood alone, staring at the huge figure that was gradually approaching, and silently said in his heart: "I will not let you harm our world."
As time goes by, the surrounding atmosphere becomes more and more tense. The villagers' discussions gradually turned into prayers, and rapid footsteps were heard in the distance, which was the return of Jason and others with hopeful news.
"Found it!" Jason panted, holding up a sword that emitted a soft light. "This is the Sword of Light, a legendary holy object that has the power to purify dark energy!"
Su Mo took Gao Jie's Sword of Light, felt the pure power contained in it, and felt an unprecedented sense of power in his heart: "Okay, now, let us use this sword to open the way to victory."
Under the attention of everyone, Su Mo raised his sword and pointed at the giant shadow in the sky. The sword's blade shone brightly, echoing with the light of the Harmony Stone, forming a bright bridge of light, directly connected to the center of dark energy.
"Light and darkness, I am willing to be the bridge between you." Su Mo whispered, kicked her feet, and turned into a ray of light and rushed into the sky. The sword of light in her hand was like a lighthouse guiding the light, piercing directly into the core of the giant shadow. .
With an earth-shaking roar, the giant shadow in the sky began to tremble, and the dark energy gradually dissipated, replaced by the dawn of peace. Eventually, the huge figure gradually faded away, leaving only a peaceful sky and beams of warm sunlight shining down on the earth.
When Su Mo landed steadily in front of everyone, the sword of light in her hand returned to dullness, she smiled tiredly but contentedly: "We did it."
Lin Hao stepped forward and patted her on the shoulder: "Yes, between light and darkness, there are always warriors like you, guarding the balance of this world in your own way."
The traveler looked at the sky with deep eyes: "Although this battle is over, the mission of protection and balance will never stop. There is still a long way to go, are we ready?"
"Of course." Su Mo replied, his tone full of longing for the future, "As long as there is light in your heart, hope will never go out."
Jason interrupted with a smile: "Then what are you waiting for, captain, a new journey is waiting for us."
In the laughter of everyone, they embarked on a new journey, and in the distance, the villagers looked at their leaving figures and started talking one after another.
"It's incredible, they really did it."
"Yes, as long as they are here, there will always be hope in our world."
"Yes, especially the lady holding the sword of light, she is simply the reappearance of the legendary hero." An old man said with emotion, his eyes shining with admiration.
"I also heard that the traveler was once the top explorer in the kingdom, and his stories were circulated in the tavern for countless nights." A young man joined the conversation, his tone full of yearning.
"Don't forget Lin Hao, the young man who never leaves his hand with books. He is equally wise and courageous. It is said that he can read ancient books that even the Archmage has a headache." The girl next to him added, with a hint of admiration in his eyes.
The villagers talked to each other, and their conversations were full of admiration for this group of adventurers and curiosity about their new journey. The children were even more excited, imitating their heroes one after another, imagining that they could embark on great adventures in the future.
"Mom, when I grow up, I want to be a warrior like Sister Su Mo and protect everyone!" The little boy held his mother's hand, his eyes shining with determination.
The mother touched the child's head tenderly and said with a smile: "Having a dream is a good start, but remember, the most important thing on the way to becoming a hero is courage, wisdom, trust and love for your companions."
At this time, there was a gust of wind from the distant hills, as if something was approaching. Everyone looked up and saw Su Mo and his party riding majestic war horses, riding along the ridge. The sun shone on them, coating them with a layer of golden brilliance, like legendary figures walking out of a painting.
"Where are they going?" an old man asked doubtfully.
"Who knows, but their help is definitely needed somewhere." A middle-aged woman replied, with a proud smile on her face, "With them here, no matter how big the difficulty is, there is nothing to fear."
< br>
While the villagers were discussing, Su Mo seemed to feel the sight from below. She stopped her horse, turned around and waved in the direction of the village. This move attracted enthusiastic responses from the villagers, and cheers came and went, as if they were seeing off the hero.
"Remember, there is extraordinary power hidden in every ordinary heart." Su Mo said to his teammates on horseback, his voice was not loud, but enough for everyone to hear, "No matter where we go, this power will be with us." will guide us forward.”
"Yes, Captain." Jason, Lin Hao and Traveler responded in unison, their eyes burning with new fighting spirit and hope.
At the moment when their figures were about to disappear on the horizon, a young voice penetrated the crowd and came clearly: "Goodbye, heroes! Looking forward to more legendary stories from you!"
In the team, Su Mo smiled slightly when she heard this. She knew that their story was still going on. And in this land, whether it is high mountains or deep valleys, whether it is light or dark, they will leave their footsteps of marching forward bravely.
"Until the end of the world, we will not stop exploring." Su Mo silently made a vow in his heart, then gently pinched the horse's belly and led the team forward, disappearing on the distant horizon, leaving behind Give people unlimited imagination and expectations.
..."Captain, what do you think is waiting for us ahead?" Lin Hao broke the silence, his words filled with both curiosity and expectation for the unknown.
"Whether it is an opportunity or a challenge," Su Mo's tone returned to his original calmness and confidence, "as long as we are together, there is no difficulty that cannot be overcome. Because we are the messengers who guard the balance between light and darkness."
< br>
"That's right." Jason nodded in agreement, with a relaxed smile on his lips, "But having said that, I hope this adventure can be a little more 'ordinary', at least giving me a chance to show off my swordsmanship. Instead of always facing existences beyond imagination.”
"Ordinary?" The traveler chuckled, with a hint of slyness flashing in his eyes, "On our road, the word 'ordinary' has probably become a luxury product. But I agree with Jason, it's good to change the taste occasionally, for example A carefully planned treasure hunt, or the secret of an ancient civilization."
Lin Hao pushed up his glasses and joined the discussion: "I hope to find some lost ancient books. The knowledge hidden in the dust of history is crucial to understanding the forces we face. Moreover, maybe we can discover from them More clues about the Law of Balance ”
Su Mo felt warm in his heart when he heard the expectations of his teammates. It was these seemingly impossible dreams and unwavering faith that allowed them to persevere despite countless challenges. She flicked her whip and led the horse to quicken its pace.
"No matter what the road ahead is, we will walk side by side. I believe that every step of exploration is not only a conquest of the outside world, but also a transcendence of ourselves. And what awaits us, whether it is unsolved mysteries or powerful enemies, They will all be a proving ground for our growth.”
The scenery along the way quickly reversed, just like the various challenges they had experienced. Although they were in a hurry, every step left a deep memory. Just when the atmosphere was getting a little heavy, a burst of cheerful birdsong suddenly broke the silence, and a group of colorful birds rose into the sky from the woods, as if to see them off.
"It seems that our friends in nature are also cheering for us." The traveler pointed at the birds, his smile full of love for life.
Jason also laughed and said teasingly: "Yeah, maybe they are also curious about what big noise we, the guys who always cause trouble, can make this time."
Lin Hao silently recorded this moment. He knew that every bit of the journey was valuable information. Perhaps one day in the future, these records would become an important chapter that inspires others.
As the horizon continues to expand, new unknown territories gradually come into view, and an indescribable excitement spreads among the four people. Su Mo took a deep breath and once again confirmed his inner promise.
"No matter what lies ahead, we will move forward fearlessly, because we are the bridge between light and darkness, and the messengers who maintain the balance of this world. Now, let us set off to unveil the prelude to the next miracle."
The four of them looked at each other and smiled. The tacit understanding and trust were more powerful than any words. Under the expectant eyes of the villagers, they faced the rising sun and headed towards the unknown distance, embarking on another legendary journey full of unknowns and challenges.
"Hey, look over there!" A young girl suddenly pointed to the sky. Her finger moved along a vague track. Others looked along her direction and saw a strange light looming in the clouds. It seemed that is leading their way forward.
"Is it an omen? Or is a new mission calling?" Jason murmured to himself, his eyes shining with the desire for adventure.
The traveler adjusted the backpack on his shoulders, with a mysterious smile on his lips: "Everything in the world has its own laws and purposes. This light may be leading us to a new mystery."
Lin Hao turned over the map in his hand, trying to find the location that the light might indicate, although he knew that in this unknown continent, many wonderful landscapes could not be simply marked on the map. "No matter what it means, we have to have a direction first. Does anyone recognize the characteristics of that light?"
"I once read a similar description in a book," Su Mo said after pondering for a moment. "It is said that in the far east, there is an ancient city hidden in the clouds and mist. Whenever a major event occurs or a hero arrives, The light of guidance will shine there, attracting the child of destiny.”
"A hero has arrived? Captain, is it possible that some of us are destined?" Jason looked around in an exaggerated way, causing everyone to laugh.
"Who knows, fate always likes to joke. But if this is true, we will find out more." As soon as the traveler finished speaking, the atmosphere in the team became more solemn and determined.
"Whether we are looking for new challenges or responding to some kind of call, we are always a team." Su Mo glanced at each team member one by one, "Remember, our common goal is to maintain the balance of the world, no matter what Wherever the light takes us, we must be prepared to face everything.”
As they went deeper into unknown territory, the surrounding scenery became more and more fantastic and unpredictable. The dense forests, deep canyons, and even some strange creatures that occasionally passed by were all breathtaking. The villagers' stories and past adventures seemed to have turned into a force within them, inspiring them to keep moving forward.
After several days of trekking, they finally arrived at the legendary ancient city. The ancient city is hidden in the fog that persists all year round, and its true appearance is only briefly revealed when the sun shines at a specific angle. The city gate slowly opened, and they were greeted by a distant and mysterious bell.
"Welcome, travelers from afar. You have come in response to the call of light. Our city has been waiting for a long time." An old man in robes slowly walked out of the city gate. His face was kind and his eyes shone with the light of wisdom.
"Excuse me, why were we summoned here?" Su Mo asked politely, while signaling his teammates to stay alert. The old man smiled slightly and seemed to understand everything: "The ancient prophecy mentioned that when the balance of the world is threatened, four brave men will appear, and they will work together to solve a crisis related to the survival of all things. Your arrival will It is the fulfillment of this prophecy” (End of Chapter)
