These words were like a boulder thrown into a lake, causing ripples. The five people looked at each other, but no one questioned Mo Yan. After all, along the way, they have already learned to trust and rely on.
"Then let us face it together, no matter what the past or the future is." Zhao Lei took a step forward, his tone was firm, and his eyes were burning with undying determination.
"Yes, we are in the same boat until the end of time." Li Qianqian's words were like a breeze, blowing away all the doubts and uneasiness.
With the mutual support and encouragement of everyone, they embarked on the road to the final trial site. Although the unknown and the challenge are great, their belief is even stronger - the real adventure has just begun...
As night falls, sitting around the campfire, Zhao Lei gently says to Zhou Lili: "Every day Every fall makes me appreciate having you by my side even more. No matter how difficult the road ahead is, I am willing to be with you until the end.”
Zhou Lili's face was filled with a gentle smile, and she responded softly: "The same is true for us, Zhao Lei. As long as you are here, there is hope and there is a home."
The firelight illuminated the faces of the five people, warm and firm. Lin Feng raised the map in his hand and studied the road ahead carefully by the light of the fire. "According to the clues given by Mo Yan, we should be able to reach the final trial site through this dark forest. There are hidden information about ancient power and light." "The most critical secret of my heart."
"It is said that there are many unrecorded strange creatures living in the forest. We must be careful." Li Wenjing tightened the bow of light on her back, her eyes flashing nervously. A glow of excitement.
"Just in time, I also want to see what kind of light my sword can shine in the face of these unknown challenges." The corners of Lin Feng's mouth raised, the sword was unsheathed, and a cold light flashed, as if to prepare for the upcoming battle. Eager to try.
“Don’t forget, we still have each other.” Li Qianqian reminded, her fingers gently brushed the small staff at her waist, and a gentle blue light bloomed quietly, adding a bit more to the night. An Ning, "Our strength comes from teamwork and trust in each other."
Zhou Lili took out a few pieces of dry food from the package and distributed them to everyone, "Keep up your strength, tomorrow will be a tough battle. I hope that each of us can be in the best condition to face those unknown challenges."
While talking around the fire at night, what flows between the five people is a tacit understanding and deep friendship that need no words. During this long journey, they were not just comrades-in-arms, but more like family members, going through ups and downs together and protecting each other.
Late at night, when the bonfire is extinguishing, the surrounding forest seems to be holding its breath and waiting. Only the occasional calls of nocturnal animals break the silence. Zhao Lei looked at the stars, with thousands of thoughts surging in his heart, "Everything we do is not only for the world, but also for the friendship between us. No matter what the result is, I have no regrets."
"Well said, Zhao Lei." Mo Yan stood beside him at some point, looking at the galaxy as well, "Remember, real power comes from inner persistence and unyielding. In the ancient prophecy, you are the light of dawn. Even if the road ahead is long and dark, you must believe that the light will eventually come."
During the conversation, a shooting star suddenly flashed across the night sky, seemingly in response. Their vows were short but brilliant. The five people stood quietly, each made their wish, and then looked at each other and smiled. The smile contained infinite longing for the future and the courage not to be afraid of challenges.
During the conversation, a strange phenomenon suddenly appeared in the sky. A huge meteorite pierced the sky, trailing a dazzling tail flame, and crashed into the forest not far away. Deafening explosions followed one after another, and the earth trembled, and the trees Swaying, fallen leaves flying.
"What's going on?!" Li Wenjing looked in the direction of the falling meteorite in surprise. The bow of light in her hand was ready to go, and she looked around vigilantly.
"This...this power is so amazing!" Zhou Lili covered her mouth and exclaimed, almost dropping the ancient book in her hand.
Lin Feng rushed towards the forest, "We have to go and take a look, maybe it has something to do with our mission."
"Wait, let's move together!" Zhao Lei quickly caught up, The others followed closely, filled with uneasiness and curiosity.
Walking through the destroyed forest, they came to the crater. The sight before them shocked everyone. There was no trace of the meteorite in the crater. Instead, there was a huge crystal that emitted a strange blue light. After the surrounding plants came into contact with this blue light, they withered quickly, as if their vitality had been drained away.
"This is..." Li Qianqian approached hesitantly, the staff's light shining slightly, trying to detect the mysterious object.
"Be careful, this energy is not simple." Mo Yan's voice seemed particularly solemn. He approached the crystal and touched it lightly with his fingertips, but suddenly retracted it like an electric shock. "It is dark energy, and it is extremely pure. I am afraid it will be different from the crystal. Eternal darkness has nothing to do with it."
"Could it be that this is our next trial?" Zhao Lei frowned, his eyes firm, "No matter what, we must deal with this thing."
Before he finished speaking, the ground trembled again, and a powerful force erupted from the crystal. The five people were knocked back several steps by the shock wave. Zhao Lei and others vomited blood and fell to the ground.
"No, the energy is out of control!" Li Wenjing reluctantly stood up, and the bow of light automatically surrounded her, forming a shield, barely resisting the overflowing dark energy.
Mo Yan endured the pain, gritted his teeth and cast an ancient spell, trying to stabilize the energy in the crystal. However, just as his spell was about to be completed, a low and majestic voice sounded in their minds: "Insignificant creatures, how dare you touch my domain, accept the punishment!"
This voice It seemed to have substance, oppressing everyone's mind and making it difficult for them to move. At this critical moment, a warm white light enveloped everyone, and it was Zhou Lili who desperately activated the emergency protection spell recorded in ancient books.
The light dissipated, and Zhou Lili turned pale and panted, "I...I don't know how long I can hold on."
"We have to find a way." Lin Feng struggled to stand up. , the tip of the sword pointed at the crystal that was still fluctuating, "We must find a way to close it, otherwise the entire area will fall into darkness."
"As long as I am here, you will not be harmed." Zhao Lei struggled to get up, and the Key of Time emitted a faint light, trying to inject a little power of time into the team to ease the current crisis.
"Everyone concentrate on finding the weakness of this crystal." The light from Li Qianqian's staff gathered together to form a beam of exploratory light, trying to penetrate the surface of the crystal and find the internal structure.
Under the guidance of the light of exploration, a subtle crack appeared on the surface of the crystal. What emerged from the crack was no longer pure darkness, but shone with an imperceptible light. "That's the key!" Zhou Lili recognized the meaning of the light and said hurriedly, "We need to amplify that light, maybe we can neutralize the dark energy."
The five people quickly reached a consensus and worked together to use their respective skills. The bow of light, staff, sword blade, and even Zhou Lili's ancient book and Zhao Lei's key of time all converged to a point, infinitely amplifying the glimmer of light until it stabbed. Break the crystal shell.
With a deafening roar, the crystal burst, the dark energy was purified, and a small fragment of light flew out from it. It slowly floated towards Zhao Lei, gently blending into his chest, making him instantly feel a warm and powerful force. Flowing throughout the body.
"I...I'm fine." Zhao Lei touched his chest in surprise. The wound healed miraculously, and the strength of his whole body was improved as never before.
"This is...a fragment of the Heart of Light!" Mo Yan stared at Zhao Lei in disbelief, "You have resonated with the Heart of Light. This is definitely a good sign."
"It seems that we have gained another strength on our journey." Lin Feng showed a long-lost smile, full of confidence in the future battle.
“Yes, as long as we unite as one, we can overcome any difficulty, no matter how big it is.” Li Wenjing clenched the Bow of Light in her hand with a firm gaze.
"So, what should we do now?" Zhou Lili put away the ancient books. Although her physical strength had not yet fully recovered, her eyes were extremely bright.
"First, we must understand whether there are other threats in this area." Li Qianqian suggested, waving her staff lightly, releasing a soft light, and exploring around. "If this crystal is some kind of early warning, then there may be more secrets hidden around it."
"At the same time, we should also find out why this fragment of light chose me." Zhao Lei said, lowering his head. Looking at his chest, there seemed to be a faint glow left there. "Perhaps, this is our key to unlocking the mystery of the ancient power."
"Split our operations." Lin Feng decided decisively, "Li Wenjing and I are responsible for searching this area to see if there are other affected places or Hidden clues. Zhou Lili and Li Qianqian, please continue to study the ancient book to see if there is any record about the fragments of light. Zhao Lei, you'd better take a rest, after all, your body just suffered a huge impact."
"No, I'll go with you." Zhao Lei stood firm, "I'm part of the team and I can't let you take the risk alone."
"Okay, then let's go together." Lin Feng nodded in agreement, "But we have to stay vigilant. This encounter proves that our task is far more complicated than imagined."
The group was divided into two groups, Lin Feng and Li Wenjing went deep into the dense forest, taking every step carefully. They found a lot of dead vegetation due to the influence of dark energy, as well as some subtle magic fluctuations. On the other side, Zhao Lei, Zhou Lili and Li Qianqian sat in a circle around the ancient books. Zhou Lili flipped through the yellowed pages and occasionally whispered passages of obscure ancient texts.
“Found it!” Zhou Lili suddenly shouted excitedly, and she pointed it out to the other two people, “According to the record, the fragments of the Heart of Light are the protective power left by the ancient warriors of light. Can resonate with people with pure hearts. Once selected, that person will become the leader of light in the new era. "
"Guide..." Zhao Lei repeated in a low voice, and a sense of responsibility emerged spontaneously.
"Not only that, the fragments can also enhance the strength of each of us, making us stronger against the darkness." Li Qianqian added, her eyes shining with longing for the future.
At this time, Lin Feng and Li Wenjing returned, bringing with them a broken fragment of an ancient stone tablet with vague totems and words engraved on it. "This may be a guideline, telling us where to go next." Lin Feng explained.
Sitting around the campfire, everyone gathered to discuss new discoveries. The firelight illuminated their faces and reflected the determination and determination in everyone's eyes.
“No matter what the road ahead is, we will walk together.” Zhao Lei clenched his fists and looked at everyone with firm eyes.
"That's right, since you have chosen the far distance, you only have to worry about the wind and rain." Li Wenjing agreed, her bow of light reflecting a gentle luster under the firelight.
“We are not only adventurers, but also warriors guarding the light.” Zhou Lili’s words were full of pride and confidence.
"The battle between light and darkness has never stopped since ancient times. And this time, we will be the ones to change everything." Lin Feng's words were resonant and resonated with everyone.
"So, now we know our respective tasks and responsibilities." Mo Yan pondered for a moment, his eyes swept over everyone, his voice was filled with unquestionable determination, "Next, we not only have to solve To uncover the secrets of these fragments, we need to prevent any potential disasters and protect the world from being swallowed by eternal darkness."
"Yes, but first, we need to find the place hinted on the stone tablet." Zhao Leina. Picking up the piece of stone tablet and looking at it carefully, it seems that the whispers of history can be read from those ancient traces. "Although these symbols are vague, they seem to point to the ruins of a distant and ancient city."
"The city's ruins" Ruins?" A trace of curiosity flashed in Zhou Lili's eyes, "There may be more secrets about the Heart of Light fragments, as well as clues to the corresponding dark power."
"Yes, we have to. Get ready." Lin Feng stood up and moved his body, which was slightly stiff from sitting for a long time. "This trip will be full of unknowns and dangers. Everyone must prepare their own equipment and spells."
As the night grew darker and the starry sky shone brighter, several people were busy around the campfire, checking equipment, mixing potions, and not forgetting to exchange their thoughts and guesses with each other. Li Qianqian gently stroked the staff and silently recited the spell to strengthen the team's defense to ensure that everyone would have more safety during the next journey.
“Having said that, if we really become the guides of light in the new era,” Li Wenjing said thoughtfully while sharpening her arrows, “then, what should we do to awaken the new era? Where is the light in so many people’s hearts?”
This question made the atmosphere around the fire become a little heavy for a moment. After a moment of silence, Zhou Lili gently closed the ancient book, her eyes shining with wisdom, "Lead by example and use our actions to prove the power of light. Whether it is on the battlefield against darkness, or helping the weak and spreading hope In daily life, we must show the attitude that light should have."
.
Zhao Lei nodded, the Key of Time trembling slightly on his chest, as if he also agreed with this view. , "More importantly, we must unite every partner who is willing to join the cause of light. Only by joining hands can we form a light that is enough to illuminate the darkness." (End of Chapter)
