Alliance: Start Suona, send away the stupid sister Zhou

Chapter 934 Being attacked

"Are you ready? This is not only a challenge to the enemy, but also a test of our inner selves." Zhao Lei's voice echoed in the hearts of every team member and also resounded throughout the battlefield.

"We are ready. For the sake of light and love, there is nothing we cannot overcome!" Li Qianqian's words, like a response and also like a vow, resonated with everyone.

At this critical moment, a young mother walked out of the crowd with her baby in her arms. Her voice was gentle but firm: "Please take us together and move forward towards a bright tomorrow. Our children must also grow up in the light, without fear, only hope."

This scene touched everyone's heart. Zhao Lei looked at the mother and son, with a gentle light in his eyes. He said softly: "Of course, we are the guardians of light and the hope of everyone. Let us welcome the coming light together."

As soon as the words fell, the arrow of light that had been ready to be launched finally exploded, turning into a dazzling ray of light, piercing through all the darkness and shadows, and soaring into the sky. At this moment, the entire battlefield seemed to be washed by light, and everyone was bathed in unprecedented warmth.

At the moment when victory was about to come, the figure of the old man gradually faded away, leaving behind a sentence that drifted slowly in the wind: "True victory is not only to defeat darkness, but also to protect the light and hope in everyone's heart. The road ahead is still long, followers of light, are you ready?"

"Get ready!" Not only Zhao Lei and his team, but the surrounding people, whether soldiers or civilians, responded in unison. Their voices gathered into a force that could not be ignored, shaking the heaven and earth.

Where the old man disappeared, a faint light was left behind, as if silently affirming everyone. Zhao Lei clenched his fist and looked at the team: "We must not only win this war, but also win a future without fear and full of light."

"That's right!" Zhou Lili's staff glowed brighter, and her eyes flashed with determination. "Every bit of light deserves to be protected, and every bit of hope should be passed on."

“Then let us become the bridge that conveys light and hope.” Lin Feng swung his sword across the sky, and the blue trail left by the tip of the sword was like a galaxy pouring down, beautiful and shocking, “Let the world witness that the power of light is everywhere.”

Just as everyone was about to take that decisive step, a young scholar-looking passerby suddenly squeezed into the crowd, holding a seemingly ancient book in his hand. His voice trembled slightly with excitement: "I found it! The legendary Holy Book of Light, which records the ancient power that can enhance the abilities of followers of light!"

The crowd was in an uproar, with surprise and hope on everyone's face. An old woman exclaimed: "Look, even the dust of history is helping us!"

"Hurry, let's listen to what it says!" a child urged eagerly, his eyes full of curiosity and longing for the unknown.

The scholar quickly flipped through the pages and read aloud: "'When the hearts of light gather into an ocean and find the stone of the ancient covenant, the source of light will be awakened, granting the purest power in the world.' This... this stone tablet should be under the ruins of the royal city, a place we have always overlooked!"

As soon as these words came out, the crowd was excited again. Zhao Lei took a deep breath and looked at the team: "It seems that we still have a long way to go. Finding the Covenant Stone is not only for this battle, but also for eternal light and peace."

"No matter how difficult the road is, we will follow you to the end of the world!" the team members said in unison, their eyes full of longing and fearlessness for the future.

Just as they were about to set off to find the legendary Covenant Stone, a mysterious figure quietly appeared beside Zhao Lei. It was the little girl who gave him flowers before. She held a blooming flower in her hand, and her eyes sparkled with wisdom that did not belong to her age: "Heroes, flowers will guide you. Remember, every piece of light is hidden in the most inconspicuous corner, waiting to be discovered."

The little girl's words were like a riddle, but full of revelations. Zhao Lei lowered his head and gently stroked the little girl's head: "Thank you, little warrior. We will find the light and protect your smile and everyone else's."

As the team set out on their journey again, the conversation among the crowd continued, and every word of encouragement and expectation was their motivation to move forward.

"Look, this is the hope of our royal city!" a father said to his child, his eyes full of pride.

"Yes, as long as we have light in our hearts, darkness will never swallow us." The mother echoed, her hand gently resting on the father's shoulder. The family's eyes were shining with faith in the future.

The sky of the royal city, which should have been a peaceful and tranquil blue, was now covered by an ominous dark cloud, as if it was oppressive before a storm. On the streets, the originally bustling crowd became panicked and fled in all directions, with screams and cries interweaving into a doomsday lament.

"Something is wrong. The dark forces are much stronger than we thought!" Lin Feng gripped the hilt of the sword tightly, frowning as he stared at the black fog approaching in the distance. Hidden in the fog were countless greedy and evil eyes, staring at this historic royal city with eager eyes.

Zhao Lei quickly looked around and calmly analyzed: "The defenses of the royal city must be reinforced immediately. At the same time, we need to find a strategy to stabilize the people's hearts. Panic can cause a city to fall more quickly than any weapon."

"I will organize volunteers to help people evacuate, and at the same time find uncontaminated food and water sources." Before Zhou Lili finished her words, she turned into a green light and shuttled through the crowd, using her power to bring a sense of peace of mind to the frightened people.

Serin squatted down and touched the ground with his fingers. Purple flame totems emerged and formed a complex protective array. He said in a deep voice: "I will set up a barrier here to delay their attack and buy time."

Just as everyone was going their separate ways, the old scholar came running over in a hurry, the ancient book in his hand trembling slightly: "I checked the holy book, which mentioned an ancient defense ritual that can temporarily block the invasion of the dark forces, but..."

"But what?" Zhao Lei turned around and asked, his eyes firm, as if no difficulties could shake his determination.

"The royal bloodline is needed as a medium to activate the guardian statue of the royal city." The scholar swallowed his saliva. It was obvious that this condition was very tricky.

"Royal family..." Zhao Lei's eyes suddenly flashed, and he remembered the little girl he met before, "The little girl who gave flowers, she once mentioned that she was a princess who was stranded outside."

"Princess?!" The team members looked at each other in bewilderment. This news was undoubtedly an unexpected turn of events.

"We must find her as soon as possible." Zhao Lei made a prompt decision. He knew that time was everything.

After an urgent search, they found the little girl in a dilapidated church. She was comforting several equally frightened children, still holding the everlasting flower in her hand. "I knew you would come to me." She spoke with a calmness beyond her age. "Princess, I need your help now." Zhao Lei knelt on one knee and explained everything to her.

The little girl hesitated for a moment, then nodded: "If this can protect everyone, I'm willing." Her little hand tightly held Zhao Lei's big hand, and an invisible bond of trust seemed to be established between the two.

As the princess stood in front of the statue, the ancient ceremony began. Everyone surrounded her, Zhao Lei, Zhou Lili, Lin Feng and Serin each performed their duties, injecting their own power into the cornerstone of the royal city. The dark clouds in the sky seemed to feel threatened and began to roll angrily, and the black fog tried to erode everything.

"Light will not yield to darkness!" The princess closed her eyes, and her body was surrounded by a soft light, which was the pure power inherited from the royal bloodline. Under her guidance, the guardian statue in the center of the royal city suddenly lit up and turned into a huge barrier of light, blocking the approaching tide of darkness.

"Success!" Zhou Lili shouted excitedly, but soon became alert again, "But this is only temporary. We must use this opportunity to find a way to completely defeat the darkness."

Zhao Lei looked into the distance, his eyes as sharp as torches: "It's time to go deep behind enemy lines and uncover their true purpose. There must be deeper secrets behind the darkness."

Just as the team was discussing how to sneak into the enemy camp, the little girl who had given the flower to Zhao Lei walked up to him and handed him the flower in her hand: "This flower of light will guide you in the darkest moment. Please come back, the royal city needs you, and I am waiting for you here."

Zhao Lei took the flowers and gently touched her head: "Don't worry, light will never be absent. We will come back with hope."

With the support of the princess and the people, Zhao Lei led the team on a journey to the source of darkness. Above the royal city, the everlasting flower of light swayed in the breeze, as if telling a story about courage, hope and sacrifice, waiting for the return of the warriors.

"Until the light shines on this land again, our story has just begun." Zhao Lei's words became their oath to embark on the journey, and also planted an unshakable belief in people's hearts.

Under the dark clouds, the figures of Zhao Lei and his group gradually faded away, and the royal city was filled with a tense but hopeful atmosphere. The little girl stood by the city wall and watched them leave until their backs disappeared on the horizon, the flower of light in her hand still emitting a warm glow.

"Princess, they will succeed, right?" A childish voice sounded beside her. It belonged to a little boy, whose eyes were full of fear and expectation of the unknown.

The little girl turned her head and answered with a calmness beyond her age: "They will, because as long as there is light in their hearts, nothing is impossible. All we have to do is believe in them and protect this place."

At the same time, Zhao Lei and his party stopped at the edge of the dark land. In front of them was a dark forest with twisted trees and black mist, as if it was a rebellious place in nature.

"This place gives people a depressing feeling." Lin Feng said in a low voice, unconsciously clenching the sword in his hand.

"Indeed, but we have no choice." Zhao Lei's eyes were firm. "Only by going deep into the heart of darkness can we find a way to defeat them."

They stepped into the forest carefully, and the surrounding environment began to change. The light gradually disappeared, replaced by various strange sounds and the restlessness of shadows. Suddenly, a burst of hurried footsteps came, and a group of shadow creatures of various shapes poured out from all directions and surrounded them.

"It seems that they can't wait to entertain the guests." Serin smiled coldly, and the purple flames gathered in his hands to form a flame shield.

"Prepare for battle and protect each other." Zhao Lei gave the order, and the team quickly formed a formation. Zhou Lili raised her staff, and the green light illuminated the surrounding darkness, bringing them a ray of light and stability.

The battle broke out in silence, and every confrontation was accompanied by the collision of light and darkness, with sparks flying. During this fierce battle, Zhao Lei discovered a different shadow. It was huge in size, and its eyes seemed to hide deeper malice and wisdom. It seemed to be the leader of these creatures.

"Target locked, the big one!" Zhao Lei shouted and shot an arrow, hitting the target right in the middle. Although it failed to cause fatal injuries, it attracted the attention of the creature.

"Hehe, followers of light, welcome to my territory." A low and strange voice sounded in their minds. The creature actually spoke, "Do you think that with just this tiny bit of light, you can challenge the eternal darkness?"

"We are not here to challenge," Zhao Lei responded calmly, "We want to put an end to it all and bring light back to every corner."

"Naive." The shadow leader sneered, "Well, let me see how strong your light is."

The battle escalated again, and the two sides were engaged in a desperate fight. At this moment, Zhao Lei's arrow seemed to trigger some kind of mechanism, and an ancient portal slowly appeared, and light leaked out, illuminating the entire battlefield.

"What is that?" Zhou Lili asked in surprise.

"It might be the answer." Zhao Lei's eyes flickered. He understood the hint in the Holy Book of Light. The Stone of the Covenant might be hidden behind this portal.

"We don't have time to hesitate, let's go in together!" Lin Feng gave an order, and the team passed through the portal without hesitation. Behind them was a barrier of light that the shadow creatures could not approach.

Inside the door was an unknown world, the light was even brighter, it seemed to be an ancient and sacred temple. In the center was a dazzling gem, emitting a gentle and powerful light energy, which was the covenant stone they were looking for.

"Found it!" Serin was very excited. They understood that this was the key to changing the situation of the battle.

Just as they were about to take the Covenant Stone away, a heavy sound of footsteps echoed, and the Shadow Leader actually broke through the restrictions of the portal and came here.

"Want to leave? Not that easy!" There was unprecedented anger in its voice.
