Chapter 961 BenQ

"Your names will be remembered in history." The voices of passers-by sounded behind them, mixed with endless respect and blessings.

As they left, an unprecedented positive energy spread among the crowd, as if even the air was filled with the breath of change and hope. In this world saved by the heroes, everyone began to believe that as long as there is light in their hearts, hope will never go out.

"Look, they are real legends!" A young girl pulled her sister and pointed at the heroic team going away, her eyes sparkling with excitement, "One day, we can become like them."

"Yes, sister." The younger sister clenched her fists, as if she had made an important decision for herself, "We must also learn to be strong and protect others."

The crowd gradually dispersed, each returning to the track of life, but a seed was left in everyone's heart, which was the belief in light and the longing for heroes. And those heroes, at this moment, were galloping on the unknown road, facing the upcoming new challenges, they had no fear in their hearts.

"What exactly is the monster that the messenger mentioned? It has never been recorded before." The female mage pondered as she walked, with deep worry revealed between her brows.

The warriors rode their horses side by side, their expressions grim. "Whatever it is, we have faced darkness more powerful than this before, and this time will be no different."

The little boy was riding on a horse. Although he was still small, his eyes were very firm. "Brother Lin Feng taught me that the best way to understand the enemy is to face it personally. I am ready."

Lin Feng's friend nodded, his eyes seemed to be able to penetrate the fog and reach the battlefield in the distance: "That's right, we must not only defeat this monster, but also find its source and completely eradicate the threat. This time, we may encounter unprecedented difficulties, but as long as we unite as one, there will be no obstacles that we cannot overcome."

As the sun set, the team finally arrived at the first village ravaged by monsters. The scene before them shocked everyone: the houses were in ruins, smoke and dust filled the air, the villagers fled in all directions, and the place was desolate like the end of the world.

An elderly village chief trembled as he came forward, his eyes filled with despair: "You are finally here, please save us... That monster comes every night and takes away our loved ones..."

The female wizard immediately stepped forward and patted the old man's hand to comfort him: "Don't worry, we are here to put an end to it all. Please tell us, what are the special signs when the monster appears?"

Under the guidance of the village chief, the heroes began to set traps and surveillance magic around the village. As night fell quietly, the tense atmosphere almost froze the air.

"Here it comes!" The little boy keenly caught a hint of movement and pointed to the depths of the darkness. A huge black shadow slowly emerged, its eyes like burning flames, exuding an ominous aura.

"Prepare for battle!" The warriors' roars resounded through the night sky, and the team immediately entered combat status. The confrontation between light and darkness was pushed to a climax at this moment.

During the fierce battle, the monsters showed amazing strength and almost broke through the defense line several times, but the heroes cooperated more and more tacitly. Under the guidance of Lin Feng's friends, the Heart of Light bloomed with a brighter light, illuminating the hope in everyone's heart.

"Hold on, justice will prevail!" Lin Feng's friends boosted morale while resisting the fierce attacks of the monsters.

After an arduous fight, the monster finally fell down with a deafening roar, and turned into a wisp of green smoke and dissipated in the night wind.

"It's over." The female sorceress sighed softly. The magic ball of light illuminated the village that had returned to peace. A tired and satisfied smile appeared on everyone's face.

“But the end is also a new beginning,” Lin Feng’s friend said firmly as he looked at the dawn in the east, “As long as there is suffering in the world, our journey will never end.”

"Then let us join hands to greet the next dawn." The soldiers raised their fists and everyone smiled at each other. Their unshakable belief seemed to tell the world: No matter how long the night is, dawn will eventually come.

"Yes, let's move forward hand in hand until the last trace of darkness is embraced by light." The sorceress's response was warm and powerful. The rising sun was reflected in her eyes, as if she had foreseen countless bright futures.

In the crowd, the villagers who had been silent due to despair now gathered around, their eyes no longer dodging, but full of gratitude and hope. "You not only defeated the monsters, but also gave us the courage to survive and the confidence to rebuild our homeland." The village chief's voice was choked with sobs, but also more determined.

A young couple came with their child. The child carefully held a bunch of wild flowers and handed it to the little boy: "Thank you, big brother, you are our hero." The little boy was stunned for a moment, then squatted down, took the flowers seriously, and smiled brightly: "Let's work hard together to make this place full of laughter again."

At this time, a seemingly ordinary peasant woman squeezed through the crowd, holding tightly in her hand a fragment of an ancient stone tablet with vague runes engraved on it. "I found this in the ruins, maybe it is related to those monsters." Her words attracted the attention of Lin Feng's friend. He took the stone tablet and looked at it carefully, with a flash of understanding in his eyes.

"This may be the key. We have to take it back for research." The female mage nodded and said to everyone, "Every battle is a test for us and also the key to unlocking the truth. This time, we have to go deeper and face the unknown source directly."

The warrior patted the saddle with a determined look: "No matter what kind of trials lie ahead, we will move forward courageously. Because we are the messengers who protect the light."

The little boy jumped on the horse and announced excitedly and seriously: "I also want to be prepared, learn more knowledge, and become stronger. Next time, I will protect more people!"

They set out to leave the village, with the villagers waving goodbye and expressing their sincere gratitude. On the way, the female wizard suddenly spoke softly: "This victory makes me feel unusually calm. Perhaps, true power is not only about defeating evil, but also about inspiring the light in people's hearts."

Lin Feng's friend smiled and looked at the mountains in the distance: "You are right. Every person we help will become a flame that spreads light, making the world brighter little by little."

"And we are that initial spark," the warrior added, his tone full of pride and determination.

The little boy hugged the bouquet tightly in his arms, with a dreamy light in his eyes: "I hope that one day, everyone can be their own hero and no longer be afraid no matter how powerful the darkness is."

The conversation gradually became low, and the team continued to move forward in the morning glow, each step was a rhythm of hope. What they didn't know was that in a hidden corner, a pair of eyes were silently watching them leave, with a meaningful smile at the corner of their lips.

"Oh, what interesting guys. But the real challenge has just begun." The deep voice, accompanied by a chuckle, echoed in the morning air, leaving a sense of mystery and uneasiness. "You are right, Master." The black-robed man beside him replied respectfully, with a cold light in his eyes, "Their journey will definitely not be smooth, and we will become an indispensable whetstone on their path of growth."

Although no one heard this sudden conversation, it seemed to foreshadow a more magnificent story about to unfold.

A few days later, the heroes arrived at a prosperous town, which was in stark contrast to the village previously invaded by monsters. On both sides of the street, vendors' cries could be heard one after another, and pedestrians' faces were filled with ease and happiness. A street performer stopped playing the guitar and smiled at a passing little boy, "Hey, boy, your determined eyes don't look like you're here for a trip. Are you looking for new adventures?"

The little boy scratched his head sheepishly and said proudly, "We are going to defeat more monsters and protect everyone!"

The artist laughed heartily, attracting the curious onlookers: "Did you hear that, everyone? The real heroes are among us! Children, this is the role model you should learn from."

An old man in the crowd sighed: "It's great to see young people like this in this era. Unlike us, we are old and can only rely on memories to keep warm."

This caught the attention of the female wizard. She walked to the old man and asked gently, "Old man, do you know anything about the history of the past or the legends related to those monsters? Any details may help us."

The old man narrowed his eyes and looked at the female wizard carefully, with a sly smile on his face: "Smart child, you asked the right person. A long time ago, there was an ancient prophecy that said that when the dark forces attempted to cover the world, a group of warriors holding blades of light would gather from all directions. They would go through many trials and finally uncover the secrets hidden behind the shadows."

"Secret?" The little boy opened his eyes wide, looking curious.

The old man smiled mysteriously: "It is said that the appearance of all monsters is related to an ancient forgotten seal. Only by solving this mystery can we truly stop the cycle of disasters."

The warrior frowned upon hearing this. "Seal? That doesn't sound easy. Where should we start looking for clues?"

The old man pointed to the east and said, "There is a place called 'Shadow Forest'. It is said that there are relics of an ancient civilization hidden there. Perhaps you can find the answers you are looking for there. However, that place is full of dangers. Few people who enter it can come out alive."

Facing the unknown challenge, everyone in the team showed an eager expression. Lin Feng's friend patted everyone on the shoulder and said: "Since fate is leading us to this place, there is nothing to be afraid of. We are not only here to solve the mystery, but also for the future of everyone."

The female mage nodded solemnly: "Shadow Forest, here we come."

In this way, the group said goodbye to the town and headed towards the unknown shadow forest. The setting sun stretched their shadows long, like a silent oath, firm and resolute.

Just as they disappeared at the end of the road, a mysterious figure standing on the roof slowly put away the telescope.

He whispered to himself: "Shadow Forest? Interesting choice. I hope you can survive and witness the final truth." After speaking, he disappeared in the afterglow of the dusk, leaving behind only a string of chuckles, as if he knew everything that was about to come.

After several days of trekking, the heroic team finally arrived at the edge of the Shadow Forest. The dense tree canopy blocked out the sun, and the sunlight could only barely penetrate through the gaps, casting mottled light and shadows. There was an oppressive and mysterious atmosphere all around, and even the calls of birds and beasts seemed particularly rare.

The little boy stuck close to the warrior and whispered, "Are there really remains of an ancient civilization here? It feels so scary."

The soldier patted him on the back and comforted him: "Don't be afraid, we are here. Remember, courage is more important than any weapon."

Soon after they went deep into the forest, they encountered strange illusions. The intricate maze seemed to test everyone's will and wisdom. The female wizard concentrated her mind and used magic to heal a passerby who was accidentally injured by the illusion. The man looked at her in surprise and murmured: "You...you are not ordinary people? I have never heard of anyone in this forest getting rid of those confusions so quickly."

"We just have more persistence and faith than others." Lin Feng's friend responded with a smile, his eyes firm, as if he could see through all the fog.

As the team was struggling forward, suddenly, a burst of hurried footsteps came from the bushes, and a ragged traveler stumbled out, panting, his eyes full of fear: "You...you must leave! The guardian of darkness, it's coming!"

"Guardian of Darkness?" The warrior frowned and quickly organized the team into a state of alert.

The traveler trembled and pointed to the depths of the forest: "It guards the secret of the seal. Anyone who approaches will be... devoured!"

The little boy clenched his fists and said bravely: "We can't back down, right? Only if this problem is solved, others will not be hurt again."

The sorceress nodded in agreement: "He is right. We are messengers of light. No matter how powerful the enemy is, we must not give up."

With a deafening roar, a huge shadow emerged from the woods. It was the so-called "Dark Guardian." It was surrounded by cold mist, and its eyes were like the abyss, revealing a terrifying and captivating look.

The warrior drew his sword and said, "Get ready to fight! Protect each other, this is our common mission!"

A fierce battle broke out, and the collision between the two sides produced dazzling light and shocking shock waves, and the whole forest seemed to be shaking. The heroes' cooperation became more and more tacit, and each attack was accurate. The little boy also used what he learned to release a small ball of light to interfere with the vision of the dark guardian.

In this life-and-death contest, a fleeting opportunity appeared. Lin Feng's friend used a clever spell to temporarily restrain the guardian. The female magician seized the opportunity and cast a powerful spell she had never tried before. The light surged out like a wave and directly hit the guardian's vital point.
