Alliance: Start Suona, send away the stupid sister Zhou

Chapter 939 Danger
“No matter how many unknowns and dangers there are in the future, as long as we are together, there will be no difficulties that cannot be overcome.” Lin Feng said beside a campfire, surrounded by the trusting and warm eyes of his teammates.

"Indeed," Lin Xier echoed softly, with a hint of tenderness in her eyes, "We have proved that light can penetrate the deepest darkness. Next, no matter if it is a road full of thorns or an endless storm, we will hold hands and move forward courageously."

The warrior patted his chest and said with a heroic smile: "Right! With a group of fearless guys like us here, a few secret realms are nothing. Let those guardians see how powerful we are!"

As night fell and the starry sky shone, the team sat around the campfire, sharing their dreams and hopes. Lin Feng raised the fragment of the Heart of Light in his hand, which shone with a warm and mysterious glow under the firelight.

"Along the way, each of us has grown a lot. This heart of light is not only a symbol of strength, but also a testimony to our unity and courage." His words were full of affection and resonated with everyone.

"Moreover," the sorceress added, her eyes sparkling with wisdom, "we have discovered that each secret realm not only hides trials, but also ancient wisdom and secrets. This knowledge is crucial to fighting darkness and protecting the world."

"So, where will the next stop be?" Lin Xier asked curiously, feeling both anticipation and uneasiness in her heart.

The ancient book left by the elves was gently opened in Lin Feng's hands. Ancient symbols and maps jumped on the yellowed pages. "According to the instructions, we will go to the 'Ice Valley' - a place covered by eternal ice and snow, where it is said that there live snow giants who can predict the future. Only those who solve their puzzles can obtain the next piece of the Heart of Light."

The soldier rubbed his hands together and said excitedly: "It sounds like a tough battle! But it's just what I want!"

Lin Xier smiled, her smile was less melancholy and more tenacious and confident. "Whether there is ice or fire ahead, I am ready. As long as we look to the light, there is no shore that we cannot reach."

As the night deepened, the conversations around the campfire gradually subsided, and each team member quietly accumulated strength in his heart to prepare for the next unknown adventure. Under the protection of the stars, they fell into a dream full of hope.

"Tomorrow is a new beginning." Lin Feng whispered, his eyes looking through the dancing flames to the distant sky. There, it seemed that something was calling them, both a challenge and an invitation.

"Yes, Lin Feng." Lin Xier responded softly. Their eyes met in the night. No more words were needed, as they already understood each other's feelings.

"Are you ready, guys?" As the first rays of sunlight penetrated the treetops in the early morning, Lin Feng stood up and asked the gradually awakening team. His voice contained unquestionable firmness and a hint of eagerness to take on an unknown journey.

"Stand by at all times!" The team responded in unison, and everyone's eyes were burning with desire for the challenge.

The journey to the Frozen Valley was long and arduous. They passed through the dark forest, climbed the steep mountains, and finally stood at the edge of the Frozen Valley. The scene before them was shocking, with endless white snow covering the earth and the ice peaks in the distance shining brightly in the sun, as if they were the portal to another world.

"This is the Frozen Valley, cold and beautiful." The sorceress murmured to herself, her fingers gently touching a snowflake in the air, as if she was feeling the vein of an ancient prophecy.

"Where is the snow giant we are looking for?" The warrior looked around, trying to find a clue in the endless white.

At this moment, a long and low horn sound penetrated the cold wind and echoed in the frozen valley, attracting the attention of the expedition team. "It seems that we are not alone." Lin Xier narrowed her eyes and stared at the direction where the horn sound came from.

Following the guidance of the horn, they came to a huge ice castle. At the entrance of the castle stood two burly guards covered with thick fur. They held ice blades in their hands and had solemn expressions.

"Foreign travelers, why are you here?" one of the guards asked in a low voice, with an inviolable majesty in his voice.

Lin Feng stepped forward and showed the fragment of the Heart of Light to the guards: "We are here to find the fragment of the Heart of Light. We are willing to exchange wisdom with the snow giants and solve your puzzle."

The guards exchanged glances, seeming to be interested in the fragments of the Heart of Light, and then slowly parted to make way for the expedition team. "Go in, but remember, the test of the snow giant is not easy to pass. Only the true wise can peek into the secrets of the future."

The interior of the castle was as complicated as a maze, with winding corridors made of ice and mysterious patterns engraved on every wall that predicted the future. Finally, they stopped in a spacious hall, in the middle of which sat a white-haired old snow giant with his eyes closed, as if immersed in endless contemplation.

"Honorable wise man, we are explorers from afar, and we come here with our persistence in pursuit of light and our awe of the unknown." Lin Feng bowed respectfully to explain his purpose.

The old snow giant slowly opened his eyes, with a sharp light flashing in his eyes: "Your journey is full of courage and determination, which surprised me. In this case, I will give you a test. If you can solve the three puzzles I give you, the fragments of the Heart of Light will belong to you."

The first puzzle was a time paradox that made the team ponder deeply. After a heated discussion, the female sorceress used her extensive knowledge to give a convincing answer, which made the snow giant smile with satisfaction.

The second puzzle is a psychological test, requiring them to face their inner fears and make the most difficult choice. The soldier stood in front without hesitation, proving the weight of courage with his firm will and unyielding spirit.

The final puzzle was an extreme challenge to wisdom and teamwork, requiring the team to find the only exit in a complex maze. Lin Xier and Lin Feng worked together, using their respective strengths, and eventually led the team through many difficulties and out of the maze.

"Excellent! You not only possess wisdom, but also an incredible spirit of solidarity." The old snow giant stood up and slowly walked towards them. The fragment of the Heart of Light in his hand emitted a gentle light. "You deserve this fragment."

The moment he took the fragment, Lin Feng felt an unprecedented power surging in his body. The warmth of the Heart of Light seemed to tell them that no matter how rugged the road ahead, light and hope would always be with them.

"Thank you for your guidance, wise man." Lin Xier said with a smile. Her eyes showed both relief from the past and infinite expectations for the future.

With the test of the Frozen Valley over, the expedition team set out on their journey again. They know that each subsequent secret realm will bring new challenges and growth, but as long as their hearts are closely connected, nothing is impossible.

"No matter what the road ahead holds, we will stand shoulder to shoulder until the world is illuminated by light again." Lin Feng's voice floated in the wind, injecting infinite strength into the team. And at this moment, in the afterglow of the setting sun, their shadows were stretched very long, as if they were the road of destiny, both a guide and a witness. With their backs to the gorgeous skyline, the group set out on the road to the next unknown territory.

"Come to think of it, there seems to be a deeper meaning hidden in the wise man's last smile." The female mage broke the silence softly, her fingers gently stroking the newly acquired fragment of the Heart of Light, as if thinking about something.

"Yes, it feels like our journey has just begun to unveil its true veil." Lin Feng nodded in agreement, his eyes far-reaching.

Lin Xier's lips curled up into a smile. She looked into the distance, with a spark of adventure in her eyes. "No matter what lies ahead, the pursuit of light will never change."

The soldier clapped his hands, interrupting the somewhat heavy atmosphere. "Okay, stop sighing. We still have a long way to go. We need to quickly find a place to set up camp and prepare for tomorrow's march."

As night fell quietly, under the starlight, the expedition team found a relatively sheltered open space, and the bonfire was lit again, illuminating everyone's faces and warming each other's hearts. After dinner, around the bonfire, the topic turned to the upcoming challenges.

"What will the next secret realm be like?" Lin Xier asked, holding her chin with her hand, her tone showing both curiosity and a hint of nervousness.

"Who knows? According to usual practice, it must be another place full of dangers and surprises." The warrior joked, but his tone revealed not fear but a desire for adventure.

The female sorceress took out the ancient elven book from her backpack and flipped through it carefully, looking for possible clues. "This book mentions that in the far east, there is a place called the 'Shadow Forest'. It is said that the trees there can absorb moonlight and turn into solid shadows, devouring all living creatures that enter."

"It sounds like a challenge tailor-made for us!" Lin Xier said with a smile, and the firmness in her tone infected everyone.

"Shadow Forest. The name doesn't sound simple. It seems we have to make adequate preparations in advance." Lin Feng pondered, with a flash of determination in his eyes.

As the night deepened, the conversations around the campfire became less frequent. Everyone was silently digesting the challenges they were about to face, while also silently cheering themselves up in their hearts. Lin Feng stood up and added a few more pieces of firewood to the fire. Sparks flew and reflected on his resolute face.

"No matter how rough the road ahead is, we have each other." He turned around and gave everyone a warm smile, which contained trust, encouragement, and deep pride in the team.

"That's right, with you here, there are no difficulties that cannot be overcome." Lin Xier responded softly, her eyes scanning each person one by one, the cohesive force that made people feel at ease.

On such a night, under the starlight, their figures cling to each other, forming the most solid line of defense. The wind seems to be whispering, offering the most sincere blessings for the continuation of this journey.

"Good night, friends. Tomorrow, we will head towards the Shadow Forest." Lin Feng's voice was gentle yet firm, bringing an end to this day full of unknowns.

And just as he finished speaking, the starry sky in the distance seemed to tremble slightly, and a meteor streaked across the night sky, leaving a brilliant trail, as if it was the universe's silent approval of their adventure.

"Look, a shooting star!" someone shouted in surprise, and everyone looked up to witness this beautiful moment. At that moment, it seemed that even the stars were telling them that no matter how unpredictable the future was, as long as they were together, they could write their own legend.

"May our journey be as bright as this shooting star." Lin Xier made a wish in a low voice. Although her words were soft, they were filled with unshakable faith.

"May the light guide us to the end of the world." The warrior followed closely behind, gently beating his chest with his fist, his action full of longing for the future.

The sorceress raised her hand, as if to touch the trail left by the meteor. "May the light of knowledge dispel all the haze and let us find the truth in the Shadow Forest."

The atmosphere around the campfire became sacred and solemn, and each member was praying for the upcoming adventure in his own way. Lin Feng smiled, feeling this rare tranquility and unity, with an indescribable warmth surging in his heart.

"Okay, now that we have made our wishes, we need to go to bed early." He gently broke the silence, his voice full of concern, "Tomorrow, the Shadow Forest is waiting for us. We need a clear mind and plenty of physical strength."

Everyone responded and returned to their makeshift tents one by one. The night returned to its tranquility again, except for Lin Feng who still stood by the campfire, guarding this small warm place.

"Lin Feng, aren't you asleep yet?" Lin Xier poked her head out of the tent and asked with concern.

Lin Feng turned around and smiled gently, "I wonder if behind every challenge there is an opportunity for growth. The Shadow Forest may be more than just a simple journey for us."

Lin Xier walked out of the tent and came to his side. "You always see the deeper side of things. But you are right. Every time we overcome difficulties, we become stronger."

The two were silent for a while, only hearing the wind blowing through the treetops, bringing a slight coolness, but also bringing hope for a new day.

"Xier, no matter how dark the road ahead is, remember, with you by my side, I have unlimited courage." Lin Feng suddenly said seriously, his eyes burning.

Lin Xier's face flushed slightly and she nodded gently, "Lin Feng, we are partners and each other's beacon. No matter when or where, this trust and support will never change."

Under the starlight, the conversation between the two seemed to add a special meaning to this journey. Friendship, trust, courage and wisdom, these elements intertwined together, constitute the source of their strength to keep moving forward.

"Okay, now, it's time to rest." Lin Feng patted her shoulder, and the two returned to the tent together. Night finally embraced the expedition team completely, guarding them as they fell asleep and waited for the dawn to come.
