Chapter 921 Scruples
Zhao Lei took the map with a sense of mission in his heart. "We will not let down the expectations of the public, no matter what the road ahead is, we will move forward courageously."
"Okay! Then let us embark on the journey again, for the sake of the light, and for the sake of this world." Mo Yan raised his arms and shouted, Everyone echoed, and the sound surged into the sky.
In a warm farewell, they set foot on the road to the north. The sunshine and crowd behind them gradually fade away, and what awaits them ahead is unknowns and challenges, as well as growth and miracles.
"Hey, have you heard? Those light messengers set out again, this time the target is the mysterious ruins in the north!" An adventurer in the tavern shouted to his companions.
"Yes, I heard that there is ancient light power sealed there, the kind that can change the world!" Another adventurer took over, his eyes shining with yearning.
"Hmph, a bunch of ignorant boys, do they think they can really save the world?" In the corner, a man in ragged clothes sneered, with disdain in his tone, but there was a hint of hiddenness deep in his eyes. Subtle envy.
There was a lot of discussion in the tavern, and the legend of the Lightbringer was being spread in every corner. In the distance, a group of people were crossing the vast wilderness, with determination and hope at every step.
"Zhao Lei, the mark on this map points to an ancient ruins. What do you think there will be there?" Li Qianqian asked while riding a horse, holding the map in his hand.
Zhao Lei squinted his eyes and looked into the distance, and said in a deep voice: "No matter what it is, it is the key to our search for the answer. Allen, does your research shed any light on this place?"
Allen frowned and flipped through the ancient books he carried with him: "According to records, there was a city of light in the north, which was the center of the battle between light and darkness in ancient times. If the prophecy is true, there may be a secret to balance the two forces hidden there. The key. "
As they went deeper into the wilderness, the power of nature became more and more wild and unruly, and rare and exotic animals peeked out from time to time, but they were driven away one by one by Lin Feng's keen perception. Zhou Lili, on the other hand, is always alert to her surroundings to prevent any potential dark invasion.
One evening, they camped beside an abandoned guard tower. Beside the bonfire, Li Wenjing stroked her bowstring gently and looked at the stars tenderly: "Every time I look up at the stars in the sky, I feel that our journey has become one of the rays of light."
" Yes, every star is like a story, and our story is being witnessed by the world." Zhao Lei's voice was full of emotion, and the key of time in his hand flickered slightly, seeming to resonate with the stars in the night sky.
Suddenly, a burst of rapid footsteps broke the tranquility of the night, and a panicked traveler rushed into the camp: "Help...help! Dark creatures have attacked nearby villages, asking for your help!"< br>
Li Qianqian stood up immediately, with the staff in hand: "Let's go! We can't let innocent people suffer."
Everyone quickly packed up their equipment and followed the traveler to the village that was attacked. The village at night was shrouded in fear, with flames and wails intertwined. A huge dark beast is raging, and the villagers are terrified but helpless.
"Everyone, get out of the way!" Lin Feng's arrow pierced the night sky, accurately hitting the dark beast's vitals, but only making it stagger a few steps. The dark beast turned around and roared angrily, its eyes as terrifying as the abyss.
Zhou Lili quickly chanted a spell, and bunches of holy light condensed into a net, binding the dark beast. Zhao Lei used the power of time to slow down the flow of time on the entire battlefield, buying precious time for his companions.
When Allen saw this, his heart suddenly enlightened: "I understand, light and darkness need to coexist harmoniously, rather than simply conquering!" He formed a seal with his hands, and a beam of magic that balanced light and darkness hit the dark beast's head directly. The huge thing in the heart gradually dissipated and turned into little stars, blending into the night sky.
The villagers gathered around and burst into tears of gratitude: "Thank you, warriors of light! You are the real heroes!"
Amidst the gratitude and praise, the light messengers did not stay long. They understand that a greater mission is calling them. When they set out on the journey again, a child ran up to them and handed them a bouquet of wild flowers: "Take this with you, it will keep you safe on your journey."
Li Qianqian took the flowers and said with a smile: "Thank you, little one. One day, flowers of light will bloom in every corner of this land."
The child's eyes flashed with admiration: "I will remember it, and I will do it when I grow up. Become a warrior like you!”
Following the child’s words, the figures of the Light Messengers gradually faded away. Although their steps were heavy, they were full of determination. The scenery along the way kept changing, but the faith in their hearts never wavered.
"Look at these traces. They should be the relics of some ancient civilization." At the edge of a dense forest, Lin Feng squatted down and carefully observed the vague carvings on the ground. The surrounding trees seemed to be whispering, telling long-lasting stories.
"If this is true, then there may be the key to unlocking the secret of the Key of Time." Zhao Lei held the key item tightly, his eyes flashing with anticipation and curiosity.
"I hope we can find the answer instead of awakening the sleeping disaster." Mo Yan's tone was mixed with a hint of worry. His experience told him that ancient secrets are often accompanied by danger.
While everyone was discussing, a strange buzzing sound suddenly came from the depths of the dense forest, which made people uneasy. Zhou Lili looked around alertly, placing her fingers lightly on the hilt of the sword: "Everyone, be careful, something is wrong."
As they cautiously went deeper, a huge altar of light came into view, with an inlaid inlaid in the center of the altar. There is a dazzling gem that is emitting a soft light, which is inexplicably connected to the northern light they are pursuing.
"This is...the Heart of Light?" Li Qianqian murmured in disbelief. She felt a warm and powerful power slowly overflowing from the gem, resonating with the magic power in her body.
"Be careful, there is something approaching." Alan reminded, his gaze penetrated the dense bushes and caught an unusual shadow.
Before he finished speaking, a group of figures in black robes suddenly appeared. Their eyes were empty and cold, as if they were puppets controlled by darkness. "Guardians, no one is allowed to touch the heart of light. It belongs to darkness." A man in black robes who seemed to be the leader announced coldly.
"We are not here to fight, we are here to protect the world from destruction." Zhao Lei took a step forward, the Key of Time heating up slightly in his hands, as if in response to the upcoming challenge.
"Protection? What a high-sounding excuse. You so-called messengers of light are nothing but dust in the long river of history." The man in black robe smiled contemptuously and waved his hand. The surrounding dark elements seemed to respond to the call and began to gather. .
A battle between light and darkness is about to begin. The onlookers and passers-by wait with bated breath. There is both fear and expectation in their eyes. The outcome of this battle will determine the fate of many people.
"No matter how history judges it, what we do today is for the future and for the light!" Mo Yan raised his arms and shouted, his voice containing unswerving power.
The battle broke out quickly, and the forces of both sides collided fiercely. Every attack of the Light Messenger shines with the light of hope, while the counterattack of the man in black robe is full of the coldness of despair. In this ancient ruins, the battle between light and darkness is vividly demonstrated. Just as the battle was heating up, the Heart of Light suddenly burst out with dazzling light, enveloping the entire battlefield. An ancient and sacred energy surged around Zhao Lei and others, strengthening their strength.
"This...this is..." The men in black robes retreated in surprise. They felt an unprecedented threat. The power of darkness seemed so small in front of the light.
"It is unity and faith, the power that condenses the light in the hearts of all of us!" Li Wenjing's voice echoed in the light, and the bow and arrow in her hand condensed into an arrow of light, piercing the heart with one arrow, breaking the dark conspiracy.
As the last trace of darkness receded, light once again illuminated the land. Everyone looked around and found that the man in black robe had disappeared without a trace. Only the Heart of Light was still lying quietly on the altar. Shining with gentle brilliance.
"This is not only a victory, but also a proof of our belief in light." Zhao Lei stood in front of the Heart of Light, and the Key of Time gently touched the gem. There seemed to be some kind of establishment between the two. The subtle connection makes his face look more determined in the interplay of light and shadow.
Zhou Lili walked forward and asked softly: "This power...what are you going to do?"
Zhao Lei took a deep breath: "This power is too powerful and should not be used by individuals. All. We should find ways to ensure that it is used to protect the world and not become a new source of strife."
Li Qianqian nodded in agreement: "That's right, maybe we should find a neutral place, build a safe haven, and let this heart of light become a beacon to guide and protect the world."
"But don't forget. Darkness is always lurking in the shadows, ready to come back at any time," Mo Yan reminded, looking around as if searching for possible threats.
"Yes, we need to make a plan to nip it in the bud." Allen answered, his eyes flashing with thoughtful wisdom, "And we must find a way to contact other light bringers to unite. More strength to protect this continent together."
At this moment, a previously rescued villager hurried over, his face full of awe and excitement: "Warriors of light, old people in the village. Said that there is important information to be given to you, about an ancient prophecy..."
Everyone followed the villagers back to the village, and a white-haired old man sat by the bonfire. When he saw them, the old man's eyes There was a hint of relief in it: "For a long time, our family has been guarding a prophecy, waiting for the arrival of the light messengers. The prophecy said that when the heart of light reappears in the world, five warriors with different powers will unite to reveal the truth of time. The secret to lead the world to true peace.”
The old man took out a worn-out sheepskin scroll from his arms and slowly unfolded it. It was painted with complex totems and obscure words: "The clues leading to the 'Gateway of Time' are recorded here. Only true messengers of light can interpret and interpret them." Find its location."
Li Wenjing stepped forward and looked at the scroll carefully, with a flash of light in her eyes: "With this... this text, I seem to be able to find similar records in my family tree. Is it really fate?”
“Whether it’s fate or choice, we have reached this point.” Zhao Lei held Li Wenjing’s hand and gave her a firm look, “We will face it together. Until the end."
As night fell, the Lightbringers sat in a circle around the bonfire, discussing the next action plan. The passers-by and villagers around him listened quietly, with their eyes filled with hope and expectation in addition to shock.
"So, when will we set off?" Lin Feng asked, his voice was calm and determined, and his eyes were full of desire for the unknown.
"We will set off early tomorrow morning. Before that, let us rest for a night and accumulate strength." Zhao Lei announced, his voice echoing in the night sky, like a declaration of the future.
"Get some rest and get ready, because tomorrow, we are not only looking for the door of time, but also opening a new era." Li Qianqian added, her tone full of encouragement and confidence.
The villagers started talking, their voices full of curiosity and admiration.
“From what they said, it seems like they can really change the world.”
“Yes, the power of the Heart of Light is so incredible, maybe they can really do it.”< br>
"If only I could be such a warrior, how glorious it would be to protect our homeland!"
In such an atmosphere, the Lightbringers also felt the weight of their responsibilities, but more importantly, they felt the weight of their responsibilities. Vision and courage for the future.
The next morning, as soon as the first ray of dawn appeared in the sky, the Lightbringers were already ready to go. The villagers gathered spontaneously at the entrance of the village to bid farewell to them, and everyone's face was filled with blessings and expectations.
“You must come back safely, warriors!”
“We will always be your strongest backing!”
The child's voice was particularly loud: "Remember what you promised me, let the flowers of light bloom in every corner of the world!"
Li Qianqian smiled and waved to the child, with warmth in her heart: "I will definitely Yes, we will not let you down."
As they embark on the journey to find the door of time, the Lightbringers become more determined every step of the way. They traveled through forests, crossed mountains and rivers, and encountered various difficulties and challenges, but they were always able to overcome them with each other's support. Along the way, their reputation gradually spread and became the light of hope in the hearts of countless people.
Finally, on a starry night, they followed the guidance of the parchment scroll and arrived at a hidden valley. In the valley, an ancient stone gate stands quietly, with the passage of time carved on it, as if telling endless stories.
"This should be the Gate of Time." Mo Yan stared at the stone gate with disbelief in his tone.
"But, how to open it?" Lin Feng looked around, trying to find clues.
"Let's try it together and pool our strength." Zhao Lei suggested, and the Key of Time in his hand radiated stronger light than ever before.
