Alliance: Start Suona, send away the stupid sister Zhou

Chapter 965 Return

As the journey continued, they passed through dense forests and crossed winding rivers. Every difficulty became a stage for them to work together and show their wisdom and courage. Wherever they went, there would always be passers-by looking at them with surprise and admiration, and these looks gradually became the driving force that encouraged them to keep moving forward.

Finally, during an unexpected expedition, they discovered an ancient relic that contained a secret that could change the world: a lost magic book. Its appearance suddenly escalated the originally simple adventure and uncovered a huge conspiracy spanning centuries.

"We are not here just for treasure hunting or adventure," Lin Feng said to the crowd as he stood in front of the ancient books. "Our mission is to protect this knowledge from falling into the wrong hands and use it to benefit the world."

"Yes, just like grandpa said, with knowledge and courage, we can overcome everything." The little boy stood up with his chest out, a determined light flashing in his eyes.

“And we have to find all the hidden miracles and record them,” the little girl added, her tone full of desire for the unknown world.

As the sun sets, the outline of the ancient monument appears mysterious in the afterglow of the sunset. A group of people sit outside the ruins, sharing their dreams and vows. In their eyes, there is both a vision for the future and a determination to face unknown challenges.

“Then, let us greet every dawn together and uncover all the mysteries.” Lin Feng said finally. His voice was like the drumbeat of progress in everyone’s heart.

As night fell, the bonfire was lit again, illuminating everyone's face and reflecting their inner determination and hope. On this night, the stars seemed brighter than ever, as if responding to their beliefs and vows.

"Brother, can we succeed?" The little girl leaned on her brother's shoulder and asked softly.

"Of course, because we are not fighting alone." The brother hugged his sister tightly, his eyes looking through the jumping flames and into the distant sky, "We have each other, our friends, and the entire starry sky cheering for us."

"Look over there, that's them!" A member of a passing caravan pointed to a group sitting around a campfire not far away and whispered in surprise, "I heard that they uncovered the conspiracy that attempted to steal ancient magic and protected that precious knowledge."

"It's incredible!" another person joined in, his voice full of awe, "especially those two children, who were able to participate in such a major event at such a young age."

These praises were like a light breeze, gently blowing across the team around the campfire. Every team member straightened their backs involuntarily, and a sense of mission and honor arose in their hearts.

"Did you hear that, little sister?" The little boy turned around and said to his sister with a smile, "They are talking about us!"

The little girl blinked her big eyes, her cheeks flushed with excitement. "I can't believe we really did it!"

At this time, the female wizard put down the magic book she was studying and smiled gently: "Yes, you have become part of the legend. But remember, in addition to glory, we also need to be humble and continue to learn, because there are more unknowns waiting for us to explore ahead."

Lin Feng clapped his hands, attracting everyone's attention. "Now, let's plan our next move. That ancient book mentioned a forgotten holy place, which is said to contain the key to unlocking the secrets of ancient magic. Our next stop is there."

"Holy land? That sounds exciting!" The little boy jumped up and waved his fist. "I want to be the first one to find it!"

The little girl was not to be outdone. She stood up and put her hands on her hips. "I want to go too! I want to help everyone discover the secret, too!"

"Okay, then it's settled." Lin Feng agreed with a smile, but in his heart he couldn't help but feel proud of the courage of the two children.

The next day, when the first rays of dawn penetrated the treetops, the team embarked on a new journey. Every step was full of unknowns and challenges, but their hearts were closely connected because of their common goal.

During their journey, they passed through the misty swamps full of dangers, and their wisdom and courage allowed them to escape danger again and again. Whenever they arrived at a new place, local residents or travelers would be amazed at their deeds and send blessings and encouragement.

"Look, those are the heroes who protect knowledge!" An old man excitedly told his grandson their story. "In order to protect our world, they are not afraid of even the most terrible dangers."

“I also want to be an adventurer like them!” The child clenched his fists with a longing gleam in his eyes.

The news spread quickly, and Lin Feng and his team became heroes passed down by word of mouth among the people. Their story inspired everyone, young and old.

However, in all the praise and expectations, Lin Feng always kept a clear head. On a quiet night, he sat side by side with the female mage beside the campfire, looking at the burning flames, and said in a deep voice: "The responsibility on our shoulders is getting heavier and heavier. We must be careful at every step, and the enemy may be stronger and more hidden than we think."

The female mage nodded slightly, her eyes revealing determination, "I know. But as you said, as long as we are together, nothing is impossible. Moreover, we are also responsible for educating the next generation and passing on knowledge."

At this point in the conversation, Lin Feng turned to the children sleeping by the campfire, his eyes full of tenderness, "Yes, for them, for the future, we must persevere."

As the group was planning their route to the holy land by the campfire, the air around them suddenly froze, and an ominous premonition spread. Deep in the woods, a deep and powerful voice slowly sounded, echoing like a ghost: "Guardians of knowledge, we finally meet."

As the words fell, a tall figure in a black robe slowly stepped into the edge of the fire, his face hidden in the shadow of the hood, and the only pair of eyes that were exposed flashed with an ominous light. This was a powerful wizard, surrounded by dark magical energy, which made people feel depressed involuntarily.

"Who are you? Why are you disturbing our peace?" Lin Feng stood up alertly, standing between the children and the newcomers, with his hands slightly open, ready to respond to possible attacks at any time.

The wizard laughed in a low voice, seemingly unconcerned about Lin Feng's vigilance: "It doesn't matter who I am, what matters is why I'm here. The ancient book in your hands is what I have been pursuing for many years. Hand it over, and I can spare your lives." Lin Feng's face was solemn, and he refused without hesitation: "The knowledge we guard is for a better world, and it will never fall into the hands of those who intend to abuse it."

"Stubborn guardian, it seems that we have no choice but to resort to some... extraordinary measures." The wizard's tone suddenly became cold, and he quickly formed seals with his hands. The air around him twisted, revealing circles of strange runes.

"No, get out of the way!" Lin Feng shouted, and at the same time he jumped up, intending to interrupt the wizard's spell. However, the opponent's strength was far beyond imagination, and even Lin Feng's sudden attack only caused the wizard's movements to pause slightly, and then even more violent magic fluctuations surged out.

"Dark cage!" As the spell fell, several dark beams of light suddenly shot out from the ground, forming a huge magic cage that trapped Lin Feng tightly. He struggled hard, but found himself bound by invisible shackles and unable to move.

The children turned pale with fear when they saw this. The little girl tightly grasped her brother's hand, her eyes full of fear and helplessness. The little boy gritted his teeth and tried to rush forward, but was stopped by the female magician: "Don't be impulsive, we have to find a way to deal with him together."

The female wizard knew that direct confrontation was not the best strategy, so she quickly chanted a string of spells, and the tiny elements around her responded to her call, gradually gathering into a glittering protective net that enveloped everyone. However, the wizard just smiled lightly, as if all this was within his expectations.

"Foolish resistance." The wizard said contemptuously, with greed flashing in his eyes. "What I really need are children with pure souls as a sacrifice to awaken the ancient power. You will become the catalyst of the new era."

“Don’t even think about it!” the little boy shouted angrily. Even though his voice was trembling, he tried to stand firm and showed courage beyond his age.

Just as the situation became increasingly critical, a distant and clear bell sounded suddenly in the night sky. Along with the bell sound, a ray of light streaked across the sky, and an old man in gorgeous clothes and holding a staff appeared out of thin air in front of everyone. His arrival seemed to break the wizard's absolute control.

"Stop, Arthas. Your twisted desires end here." The old man's voice was deep and majestic, and it was obvious that he was no stranger to this powerful wizard.

The wizard Arthas's face was stern. He obviously did not expect a third party to intervene. Especially the appearance of this old man made him feel the pressure he had not felt for a long time. "It's you, Alvin. You always stand in my way."

"Everything I do is to protect the balance of this world." Old man Alvin raised his staff, and the natural elements around him seemed to respond to his call. The wind and clouds surged, forming a force that could not be underestimated.

Seeing the confrontation between the two strong men, Lin Feng took the opportunity to guide the magic and weaken the dark magic that bound him bit by bit. The little girl and the little boy also clasped their hands and prayed silently. Their courage and faith gathered into a warm force at this moment, quietly affecting everything around them.

Just as Alvin was about to launch an attack, the wizard Arthas suddenly sneered and his figure began to blur: "Let's stop here today, but the accounts between us will be settled sooner or later." After he finished speaking, he disappeared like smoke, leaving only a cold breath lingering in the air.

"He escaped, but he didn't give up." Alvin sighed, then turned to look at Lin Feng and the others, with a hint of admiration in his eyes, "You guys are very brave, but the road ahead will only be more difficult."

Lin Feng freed himself from the restraints and thanked Alvin gratefully: "Thank you for your timely help, but how did you find us?"

"The threads of fate are always intertwined in wonderful ways." Alvin smiled mysteriously, "I have been tracking Arthas' whereabouts, and at the same time, I am looking for a brave man who can pass on true knowledge and power. Perhaps you are the light that this world needs."

Under the night sky, Alvin's words seemed to herald a new beginning. Every member of the team felt an unprecedented sense of responsibility and mission. Facing the greater challenges that were about to unfold, their hearts became more determined.

"Then, Mr. Alvin, are you willing to be our mentor and lead us to fight against evil and protect this world?" The little boy straightened his back and asked with a firm gaze, expressing everyone's thoughts.

Alvin smiled, his eyes gentle and deep: "I am willing, but this is a long and difficult road, are you ready?"

"Ready!" the little boy answered loudly and firmly, and the little girl nodded with a determined light in her eyes.

"Us too." Lin Feng and the female mage looked at each other and saw unquestionable conviction in each other's eyes.

"Very good." Alvin nodded with satisfaction. He raised the staff in his hand, and the tip of the staff lightly touched the ground. Circles of light spread out from them, as if confirming some kind of ancient contract. "From now on, we will face the darkness together and pursue the light. Remember, true power comes from the purity of the heart and the thirst for knowledge."

The little girl asked curiously, "Mr. Alvin, how can we become stronger so that we can defeat bad guys like Arthas?"

"Then you need to learn and understand the deep laws of this world, as well as the long-lost ancient magic." Alvin explained, "I will teach you how to perceive the power of nature, how to control the elements, and most importantly, how to keep your mind clear and not let desire and fear cloud your judgment."

The little boy couldn't wait to ask: "Shall we start learning now?"

"No hurry." Alvin smiled and glanced at everyone. "Tonight, let's rest and recharge our batteries. Tomorrow, a new journey will begin here. Before that, I want to hear each of your stories, and learn about your dreams and wishes. Because understanding the past can help us better face the future."

Sitting around the campfire, the team members took turns sharing their experiences and dreams. Each story was full of courage and hope. They intertwined in the night, weaving a magnificent picture of dreams.

When it was the little girl's turn, she was a little shy, but with her brother's encouraging eyes, she still plucked up the courage: "I hope... we can protect more people and make the world a better place. Just like what the book said, become real heroes."

Alvin gently touched the little girl's head and said, "Your wish is beautiful, child. Remember, every great journey begins with a small step. Heroes are not born, but are made by countless choices and challenges."
