Alliance: A Great Compassion Mantra, I make the whole network autistic

"It's an undead creature!" Kasar roared, his sword flashing like a dragon, and he rushed straight to the nearest skeleton soldier, each strike was heavy and accurate. The battle broke out at this moment, and the undead army seemed to emerge from the ground, with an astonishing number.

Qimeng casts healing magic and assists in attacking. Her magic is warm and powerful, providing solid support for teammates. Leah uses the power of nature to summon vines to restrain the enemy's actions, making them passive on the battlefield.

"Concentrate our strength and break through quickly!" Su Ye commanded with confidence. The team quickly adjusted its tactics, switching from offense to defense and then looking for opportunities to counterattack. Every move and every style was full of strategy and tacit understanding.

The battle was extremely fierce. Just as they were struggling to resist, a faint blue light suddenly descended from the sky, illuminating the entire battlefield. In the center of the light, a mysterious figure in a robe slowly appeared. He held a staff inlaid with bright gems and waved it gently. The surrounding undead creatures seemed to have their strength drained away, fell down one after another, and turned into dust.

"I am the Watcher of Time, Astra." The mysterious man introduced himself. His voice seemed to have traveled through time and space, with unquestionable majesty. "I already know your journey. This place is full of dangers. You should not fight alone."

Su Ye took a step forward, his eyes full of determination: "We are here to find the truth and protect this continent. No obstacles can stop us."

Astra nodded slightly, seeming to be quite satisfied with Su Ye's answer: "Very good, then I will give you a treasure to help you." After that, the staff in his hand shone brightly, and a crystal inlaid with colorful light appeared in his palm, and then he gently threw it to Su Ye.

"This is the Heart of Time. It can temporarily distort time and space, helping you escape from deadly dangers. But remember, there is a price to pay for using it. Each use will consume part of the user's vitality."

Accepting this valuable gift, Su Ye felt an unprecedented sense of responsibility and mission. "We will definitely live up to your expectations."

After the battle, the team continued to move forward. Astra's assistance gave them more confidence, but everyone knew that the challenges ahead would only become more severe.

As the sun sets, the golden afterglow casts a shadow on the ruins of the lost city, making it look both magnificent and sad. The city gate opens quietly, as if welcoming these brave travelers, but also hiding unknown dangers.

"We're here," Qi Meng said softly, with a tone that was both exciting and uneasy. They stepped into this ancient city, and every step they took echoed the history and brought out the deeply buried secrets.

At this moment, the little girl suddenly stopped, her eyes flashing with a strange light: "I feel... a call, it seems that something important is waiting for us here."

Su Ye looked around and nodded: "Then let's find out. It's time to reveal the secret of the Lost City."

The team followed the little girl's steps, passing through the abandoned streets and dilapidated buildings, surrounded by an ancient and mysterious atmosphere. On the streets, the stone statues were broken and the murals were mottled, but the former glory could still be vaguely seen. Occasionally, one or two nocturnal birds were startled from the ruins, and their screams were shrill, adding a bit of weirdness.

An old man who looked like a wanderer, wrapped in a tattered cloak, walked out from the shadows on the side, with a cunning look in his eyes: "Hey, foreign traveler, what are you looking for here? Lost treasures or ancient wisdom? There are more stories here than the oldest trees, but they are just as dangerous."

Su Ye smiled and replied: "What we are pursuing is the truth and the key that connects light and darkness. Do you know anything?"

The old man smiled cunningly: "The key is a big secret. However, I do know a legend that says there is a secret room in the heart of the city that is guarded by the stars. However, that place is not easily accessible. You have to go through a maze full of traps, and you have to have the correct answer to solve the mystery of the stars."

The little girl held onto Qimeng's hand tightly, her eyes full of curiosity and determination: "Secret rooms and puzzles? It sounds like an adventure prepared for us!"

“You have great courage, little one.” The old man nodded approvingly. “In that case, I am willing to show you a way. I hope you can become the legendary puzzle solver.”

Led by the old man, they traveled through the intricate maze, and every time they passed, they had to solve ancient riddles or unlock delicate mechanisms. Along the way, they encountered more challenges, and every time they overcame them, the team's tacit understanding and trust went a step further.

Finally, they came to a huge room. Above the dome, a star pattern was shining with a faint light. In the center stood an ancient stone platform with complex carvings on it, as if corresponding to the stars in the sky.

"Here is the final trial field." The old man stepped aside and motioned for them to come forward.

Su Ye stared at the stone platform, and a strong premonition surged in his heart: "What do we need to do?"

"Pour your voice, your faith, and your desire for light into this stone platform. If you are truly the traveler predicted in the prophecy, the stone platform will respond to you and show you the way to the key." The old man's voice echoed in the empty hall.

The four of them smiled at each other, and without hesitation, they stood around the stone platform, closed their eyes, and silently recited their own beliefs and determination. As they resonated, the stone platform began to emit a soft light, which gradually became brighter until the entire room was filled with light. After the light faded, a key emitting a soft glow appeared in the center of the stone platform - the key that connected light and darkness.

"We did it!" the little girl cheered, tears of excitement flashing in her eyes.

Just as everyone was immersed in the joy of victory, a low murmur came from the depths of the stone platform: "Travelers, you have passed the test, but the real challenge has just begun. The key is just the beginning. How to use it will determine the fate of this continent..."

The words faded away, and the air returned to calm again, with only the sound of everyone's rapid breathing echoing. They looked at the key in their hands, feeling both expectation and trepidation.

"No matter what the road ahead holds, we must keep going forward shoulder to shoulder." Casar's voice was firm and powerful, injecting an invisible force into everyone.

"Yes, let's face it together." Qi Meng held Su Ye's hand tightly with a firm look in her eyes.

The little girl looked at them, her eyes full of longing for the future: "As long as we are together, nothing is impossible!"

Leah smiled, her eyes sweeping tenderly over everyone: "Whether it is light or dark, we have the ability to light each other's way."

They put away the key and turned to leave the mysterious chamber, each step more resolute. Behind them, the lost city seemed to whisper in the sunset, witnessing the starting point of a new legend.

Just as they were about to step out of the secret room, a discordant sneer sounded in the empty hall, interrupting their warm moment. "Huh, it's really touching! However, at this turning point of fate, has anyone told you that every choice will bring unpredictable consequences?" A figure slowly walked out of the shadows, his face hidden under the hood, revealing only a cold smile. Passerby A, a homeless man who picked up antiques from ruins on the edge of the city, happened to pass by the secret room and was attracted by the sudden confrontation. "Oh hey, where did this uninvited guest come from? It doesn't look like he's here to visit." He muttered softly, hiding aside and peeking, fearing that he would be involved.

"Who are you?" Su Ye asked vigilantly, while protecting Qi Meng and the little girl behind him, showing his responsibility and courage as a captain.

"It doesn't matter who I am. What matters is that I know what you hold in your hands is enough to change the balance of the world." The mysterious man approached step by step, and the air around him seemed to become heavier with his steps.

Kasar drew his sword, assumed a fighting stance, and looked at me with a fierce look in his eyes: "Whatever you want, you won't get it from us."

The mysterious man sneered: "How stubborn. However, I don't want to take the key from you. I just want to tell you a true secret about the key. Using it will not only bring light to this continent, but it may also release a darkness that even I cannot predict."

The little girl's eyes widened, with a hint of fear in her curiosity: "Is it really such a big risk?"

"Child, the truth is always complicated and cruel." The mysterious man said earnestly, "But the key is whether you have the courage to face it all and make the right choice."

Qi Meng sighed softly, her eyes gleaming with maternal tenderness and determination: "We will not escape, because this is the path we have chosen."

At this time, Leah came forward and gently placed her hand on the mysterious key. Her voice was gentle but firm: "Whether it is light or darkness, we will find our own light."

The mysterious man seemed satisfied with their answers. He slowly retreated and disappeared into the shadows, leaving behind his last words: "So, travelers, may your choices lead this continent to hope. Remember, the future is always in the hands of those with courage and wisdom."

With the disappearance of the mysterious man, the surrounding atmosphere returned to calm, but a seed of uneasiness was planted in everyone's heart. They looked at each other and understood each other's determination without words.

"Okay, let's move on." Su Ye's words broke the silence, and they walked out of the secret room and faced the horizon that was about to sink. In the afterglow of the setting sun, the Lost City seemed to be silently blessing them and cheering for this unknown journey.

"What will we encounter next?" the little girl asked, her tone full of desire for adventure and curiosity about the unknown.

"No matter what it is, as long as we are together, there are no difficulties that cannot be overcome." Casar replied, his smile full of confidence.

"Yes, as long as there is light in your heart, you will have nothing to fear from darkness." Qi Meng added gently, her eyes reflecting the smiling faces of everyone in the team.

Leah smiled softly. She looked up at the darkening sky and said silently in her heart: "No matter what fate we face, let us light up this continent with love and hope."

Just as they were about to embark on a new journey, a commotion came from the direction of the city gate, accompanied by panicked shouts. "Look, the sky!" A passing vendor pointed to the sky, his face full of fear.

Everyone looked up and saw a meteor with a long tail streaking across the sky in the originally calm night sky. The unusual thing was that it did not disappear in a flash as usual. Instead, it fell rapidly in the direction of the lost city and finally created a cloud of dust in the wilderness not far away, as if foreshadowing an unknown change.

"What is that? Is it related to our key?" The little girl held Qimeng's hand tightly, with both nervousness and excitement in her eyes.

"It seems that our journey will add another unknown." Casar put away his relaxed smile, and his brows became more serious.

The team quickly decided to head towards the direction where the meteor fell, hoping to uncover the secret behind this sudden incident. Along the way, they met all kinds of passers-by, and everyone was talking about the incredible meteor, with a mixture of amazement and fear in their words.

"I'm so old, but this is the first time I've seen such a strange sight. I'm afraid the weather is going to change!" An elderly farmer sighed, shaking his head.

"Whether it's a blessing or a curse depends entirely on how you heroes deal with it." A woman holding a baby looked at them expectantly, her eyes full of dependence.

The team passed through the barren fields and finally arrived at the place where the meteor landed. There were already many curious onlookers gathered there, but not far from the crater, everyone stopped and dared not get closer. Obviously, some unknown pressure was stopping them.

"What...is there?" The little girl pulled the corner of Qimeng's clothes and asked cautiously.

"You can only know if you go and see it for yourself." Su Ye's eyes were firm. He took the lead and walked forward. The team followed closely behind him, passing through the crowd and gradually approaching the crater emitting faint light.

When they reached the edge of the crater, they found a stranger lying unconscious at the bottom of the crater, wearing colorful armor. The armor was engraved with intricate star patterns, emitting a faint glow that faintly echoed the patterns on the key.

"This... where does this come from?" Leah exclaimed, obviously shocked by the scene before her.

At this moment, the stranger's eyelids moved slightly, and he slowly opened his eyes. Those were a pair of eyes that seemed to be able to see through the stars, deep and mysterious. He looked at Su Ye, and a barely perceptible smile appeared on the corner of his mouth: "The end and the beginning are intertwined, leading me to find you. My name is Leo, the son of the stars, and I come with a mission."

The people around saw this and began to whisper to each other in amazement.

"Son of the Stars? That sounds like a story from a myth." A passerby who looked like a young scholar whispered.

"Perhaps, our world is about to usher in a new legend." Another person continued, with a little excitement in his words. (End of this chapter)
