Alliance: Start Suona, send away the stupid sister Zhou

Lin Yaya smiled, and that smile contained trust in her partner and fearlessness for the future: "That's settled then, let's go to the end together!"

As they walked out of the castle, the world outside was still stormy, but the wind and rain seemed to have lost their previous ferocity, more like cheering for their victory. Passersby gathered in groups, looking at the team walking out of the castle from afar, their eyes full of awe and hope.

"Look, they're out! They really did it!" exclaimed the businessman who had stopped, with incredible excitement in his voice.

The young farmer clenched his fists and said excitedly: "I know that light will never abandon us. They are our proof!"

In the crowd, an old woman wiped the tears from her eyes and murmured to herself: "After so many years, someone can finally take this step. May the light guide them."

The team moved slowly, each step was in the wind and rain, but also in hope. Passers-by made way for them, some whispered blessings, some prayed silently, their reactions seemed to weave a magnificent picture scroll, recording this moment in history.

Suddenly, a little girl broke free from her mother's hand, ran to Lin Feng, and handed him a small flower that still bloomed tenaciously in the wind and rain. "Big brother, this is for you. Thank you, thank you for bringing us hope." Her eyes were clear and firm, without a trace of fear.

Lin Feng bent down to take the flowers, with a gentle and encouraging smile: "We will protect this hope, little sister. Remember, everyone can be their own light."

The team continued to move forward, and the little girl's mother ran over, apologizing with gratitude: "I'm sorry, my child is immature..."

Raymond Lam shook his head: "No need to apologize, her courage reminded me of a lot. Each of us, no matter how big or small, has the power to change the world."

This conversation aroused more responses from the onlookers, and people's discussions were one after another, with both longing for the future and uneasiness about the unknown. But no matter what, the seed of "hope" has been quietly planted in everyone's heart.

"What will happen next?" asked a young member of the team, his eyes following Lin Feng's back, full of anticipation.

Lin Feng turned around, his eyes swept over each team member, and finally fell on the haze in the distance that had not yet completely dissipated: "The real battle has just begun. The darkness will not retreat easily, but we have the holy weapon, we have each other, and all the hearts in this world that yearn for light."

Allen stepped forward and put his hand on Lin Feng's shoulder: "That's right, and we still have an unfinished promise. For this world, for light, until the last moment."

Lin Yaya winked playfully and interrupted: "Don't forget, there is also my sword. It can't wait to see those guys in the shadows."

"Haha, then we have a deal. We will hunt down those guys hiding in the dark one by one and let the light shine in every corner!" Lin Feng's hearty laughter pierced through the wind and rain, and the team's morale rose again.

At this time, a deep and hoarse voice came from the outside of the crowd, causing a commotion. "If you really want to fight the darkness, you might as well listen to the advice of an old man." Everyone turned around and saw an old man in a tattered cloak slowly walking forward. Although his face was covered by shadows, his eyes revealed the wisdom accumulated over the years.

"Old man, do you have anything to say?" Lin Feng took a few steps forward and asked politely.

The old man raised his head slightly, his voice mixed with vicissitudes: "I have followed the Apostles of Light for many years and witnessed countless clashes between light and darkness. A true battle is not only a contest of strength, but also a contest of will and faith. You already have the holy weapon, but remember, don't be proud and complacent. What lurks in the darkness is far deeper and more complex than you can imagine."

Alan nodded thoughtfully: "You mean, we need to be more cautious and be prepared for the unknown?"

"That's right." The old man nodded. "There is no shortage of wise and strong people in the darkness. They are good at taking advantage of people's weaknesses. Your unity and trust will be your greatest weapons. In addition, there is one more thing that may be able to help you."

"What is it?" Lin Yaya asked curiously. She was always interested in unknown things.

"The ancient prophecy mentioned the 'Key of the Soul', which is the only key to open the door to the balance between light and darkness. If you find it, you may be able to find a way to defeat darkness once and for all." The old man's words were like a stone thrown into a lake, causing ripples.

The crowd was in an uproar again, talking about the "Soul Key" one after another, with both curiosity and confusion. Lin Feng and the other two fell into deep thought, as this sudden information undoubtedly added an element of uncertainty to their journey.

"The Key of the Soul... sounds like a legend." Lin Yaya muttered to herself, but the light in her eyes showed that she had accepted the challenge.

"Legends are often based on some kind of truth." Alan responded with a firm look, "Whether true or false, we cannot let go of any clues that may help us defeat the darkness."

Lin Feng looked into the distance. The dark clouds there had not yet completely dissipated, but a glimmer of light had already appeared in the sky. "Thank you for your advice, old man. We will continue to move forward and search for the key to the soul, no matter where it is hidden in the world."

The old man nodded, a look of relief flashed in his eyes: "May the light be with you. Remember, the true light comes not only from the holy weapon, but also from the eternal fire in your heart."

"We will remember it." Lin Feng answered solemnly, then turned to the team members and said: "My friends, our journey is far from over, and new challenges are waiting for us. Are you ready?"

"Stand by at all times!" The team members responded in unison, their voices resounding through the sky, carrying endless fighting spirit and faith.

Under the watchful eyes of the crowd, Lin Feng and his team set out on their journey again. Their backs gradually faded away and merged into the dawn. Passersby along the way watched them leave with envy and admiration in their eyes. They whispered and shared their views on this bright team.

"They are like the heroes in ancient legends, brave and determined." A young man said to his companions with a gleam of admiration in his eyes.

"Yeah, with them around, the darkness doesn't feel so scary." The companion echoed, his tone full of optimism about the future.

In a corner of the crowd, the old man in a cloak stood quietly, watching the backs of Lin Feng and others disappear on the horizon. He whispered: "Young generation, I hope you can unlock the secrets of the ancient prophecy and lead the world into a new era."

As the team left, life in the town gradually returned to normal, but today's incident had become a topic of conversation for everyone, inspiring people's infinite yearning for light and hope. A few days later, Raymond Lam, Alan Allen and Lin Yaya stood in front of a desolate ruin, which was said to be one of the possible hidden places of the "Key to the Soul" mentioned in the ancient prophecy. The wind and sand could not cover up the firm determination of the three people.

"This place looks even older and more dangerous than the old castle." Lin Yaya observed the surrounding environment, holding the dagger tightly in her hand, ready to deal with any emergency at any time.

"The more this is the case, the more likely it is that the 'Key to the Soul' exists." Alan analyzed calmly, his sharp eyes scanning every detail around him.

"Let's act, we have no time to waste." Lin Feng took the lead and stepped into the ruins, and the other two followed closely behind. The air in the ruins seemed to become tense because of their arrival.

During the exploration, they encountered unprecedented puzzles and mechanisms. Every time they solved a puzzle, they understood more deeply the far-reaching significance of the struggle between light and darkness. In the challenges again and again, the tacit understanding and trust between the three people continued to deepen.

Finally, in the deepest part of the ruins, they found a stone platform surrounded by complex runes, and on the platform lay a key emitting a faint glow - that was the "Key to the Soul".

Lin Feng slowly stretched out his hand, and the moment he touched the key, a warm and powerful force surged into his body, as if even his soul was cleansed.

"That's the feeling...we found it!" he exclaimed in a low voice, his face filled with incredible joy.

"What should we do next?" Lin Yaya asked anxiously. She couldn't wait to use this power to fight against the darkness.

"First, we must return to the Temple of Light and inform the Holy Envoy of all this. Only they can guide us on how to use this key correctly." Alan suggested calmly.

"What are we waiting for? Let's go!" Lin Yaya drew her dagger and cut through the unknown fog ahead, as if foreshadowing that they were about to embark on a new journey.

Just as the three were about to leave the ruins with the "Soul Key", a low sneer echoed in the empty space, and the surrounding stone walls seemed to tremble with it.

"So what if you find it? Do you think you can change the course of your fate with just a key?" A figure slowly walked out of the shadows, with dark mist surrounding it, which was chilling.

Lin Feng quickly stood in front of Lin Yaya and Allen, looking at the newcomer solemnly: "Who are you? What is your relationship with darkness?"

"It doesn't matter who I am. What's important is that the 'Key of the Soul' should not belong to the Light." The black shadow sneered, and then the black mist around him surged, transforming into twisted shadow creatures, and pounced towards the three people.

"Prepare for battle!" Lin Feng gave the order, and the three of them quickly dispersed and fought separately. Allen's sword was as bright as water, and every strike was accurate and fatal; Lin Yaya was extremely agile, and her short sword shuttled between the light and shadow, leaving silver tracks; while Lin Feng used the holy weapon as a shield, shining brightly, guarding every blind spot.

"It seems that you do have some strength." Seeing that his attack failed, the black shadow snorted coldly, and his body instantly transformed into several figures, surrounding the three people, trying to win by numbers.

"Everyone be careful, this is the power of darkness, don't be fooled by its illusions!" Lin Feng reminded. At the same time, the power of the holy weapon in his body became more turbulent and brighter, as if looking for an opportunity to break through.

Just when the battle was at a stalemate, an ancient and sacred power was quietly released from the "Soul Key". It seemed to sense the determination and courage of its owner, and began to actively bless the three people, making their attacks more fierce and their defenses more solid.

"This... is the power of the 'Key of the Soul'!" Lin Yaya was pleasantly surprised and her attack became more fierce. The dagger drew a beautiful arc in the interweaving of light and shadow, cutting through the illusion and pointing directly at the black shadow itself.

Feeling an unprecedented threat, the black shadow finally showed panic and screamed, "Impossible! This power...how on earth can you..."

"We believe in light, and we believe in ourselves." Lin Feng held up the holy weapon, and a beam of dazzling light penetrated all the darkness and illuminated the entire ruins. The black shadows struggled painfully in the light and eventually disappeared, along with those twisted shadow creatures.

After the battle, the three of them gathered around the "Soul Key" panting and looking at each other. Their eyes showed both the relief of surviving the calamity and the firm belief in the future.

"We will encounter more unknowns and challenges along the way, but as long as we have light in our hearts, there is nothing we cannot overcome." Lin Feng's words were loud and powerful.

"That's right, light will always dispel darkness." Alan nodded with a firm look.

"Well said! No matter what we face in the future, we will face it together!" Lin Yaya smiled brightly, sheathed her dagger, her eyes flashing with desire for new adventures.

The three of them left the ruins with the "Soul Key" and set out again on the journey back to the Temple of Light. The scenery along the way passed by quickly, and they knew that this time they would not only bring back a holy object, but also bring hope to change the world.

In the Temple of Light, when the Holy Envoys learned that the "Key to the Soul" had been found, the entire temple was shaken. The Holy Fire burned brighter, as if foreshadowing the coming of the Age of Light.

The story ends here, but a new chapter has just begun. The battle between light and darkness continues, and the legends of Raymond Lam, Allen and Lin Yaya will be passed on by word of mouth, inspiring everyone with light in their hearts to bravely face the challenges of the future.

"So, can the 'Key of the Soul' open the door to light? How will they use this key to save the world from dire straits?" A passing traveler narrated this experience vividly in the tavern, causing sighs and heated discussions among the audience.

"Hey, do you think these three young people can really do it? The darkness has been shrouding us for so long, can they do it?" An old man with a weathered face interrupted doubtfully, the wooden cup in his hand trembling slightly with excitement.

"Who says it's not true? But I would rather believe it," the young blacksmith sitting next to him hammered the table, sparks flashing in his eyes, "Which revolution in history didn't start with a small spark? They may be the spark." (End of this chapter)
