After experiencing many crises together, the feelings between the people became deeper and the friendship between them became more indestructible.

They rely on each other and support each other, like an unbreakable whole.

Their

Everyone continued along the passage and soon arrived at a stone chamber.

There is an altar in the middle of the stone chamber. On the altar is a quaint box, which emits a faint light, as if there is something hidden.

Just as everyone was about to come forward to check, the girl in yellow suddenly said, "I know...I know what is in the box." As soon as she finished speaking, everyone looked at her. The girl in yellow had a blank look, as if she was trapped in some foresight, "That is... the truth of the world... and your destiny..." The girl in yellow's whisper exploded in everyone's ears like thunder, and an unprecedented pressure surged into her heart.

Everyone realized in an instant that what they were about to uncover was a truth that was related to the survival of the world and their own destiny.

Everyone looked solemn, but their eyes were firm, looking at the box in the center of the altar, waiting to meet new challenges.

"Click—" With a light sound, the box opened, and a ray of light instantly cages

The moment the box opened, a strong light surged out like a tide, and everyone subconsciously blocked their eyes.

When the light dissipated, everyone slowly lowered their arms. They knew that the truth hidden in the box would be the key to changing their destiny and the hope for the survival of the world.

An invisible pressure enveloped everyone's hearts, and the air in the stone chamber seemed to solidify. Even the dust on the altar did not dare to float, and the whole space became solemn and solemn.

Taking a deep breath, Xiaohong held the hand of the man in white beside her and felt the warmth in his palm.

Luo Xiaoyu habitually patted the sword around her waist, with a sense of fighting spirit in her eyes.

Doctor Zhang carefully checked the medicine box he carried with him to ensure that there were sufficient medicines inside.

Even Grandma Lin, who has always been kind, was pursing her lips tightly and her eyes were as sharp as a torch.

Everyone silently adjusted their state and prepared to face the upcoming battle.

"We should take the initiative!" Luo Xiaoyu was the first to speak. She has always been straightforward and likes to go straight. "Instead of waiting passively, it is better to take the initiative to find opportunities!"

"No, I think we should first stabilize the defense." Zhang Langzhong put forward different opinions, "Only by knowing yourself and your enemy can you win every battle. We are now ignorant of the enemy's situation, and taking a rash attack will only increase the risk."

"But..." Luo Xiaoyu wanted to refute, but was gently pulled by Xiaohong.

Xiaohong shook her head and signaled her to be calm.

For a moment, the atmosphere in the stone room became tense, and everyone insisted on their own words and refused to give in to each other.

"Children," the old man in white who had been silent spoke slowly. His voice, with a calm force, immediately calmed everyone's dispute.

"We are now a whole, and only by unity and cooperation can we overcome the difficulties in front of us."

Under the guidance of the old man in white, everyone started discussing the combat plan again.

The discussion gradually subsided, and finally, a relatively complete plan was formulated.

Everyone acted separately and began to prepare for the next battle.

However, at this moment, a sudden discovery made everyone's heart sink...

"How could this be like this?" The air was filled with a tense aura, like a tense bowstring, about to break out.

Xiaohong began to count the supplies as planned, but as the items were inspected, her face became increasingly ugly.

The dry food stored was only enough to last for three days, and the water was pitifully small, and there were very few weapons and medicines.

"What's wrong?" Noticed Xiaohong's strange expression, the man in white walked to her and asked softly.

Xiaohong took a deep breath and tried to control her trembling voice: "The supplies... are not enough, far from enough."

As soon as this said, it was like thunder exploding in the stone chamber. Everyone gathered around, looking at the pitiful bags of dry food and water bags piled in the corner, a feeling of despair spread.

Luo Xiaoyu lowered her head silently. She had always been full of confidence, believing that as long as she was there, any difficulties could be overcome.

However, she felt powerless for the first time in the face of such a cruel reality.

At this moment, a burst of rapid footsteps came from the entrance of the stone chamber. Then, a villager stumbled in, his face full of fear: "Enemy...the enemy is here!"

Almost at the same time, a deafening cry of killing came from a distance, and the ground began to tremble slightly.

The enemy's vanguard has arrived!

Without time to think about it, everyone picked up their weapons and prepared to fight.

The man in white and the swordsman in blue were the first to be hit. They rushed towards the entrance of the stone chamber like two lightning bolts and fought fiercely with the surging enemies.

The swords and swords were shaking, and the sound of killing was shocking, and the stone room was filled with a strong smell of blood.

The enemy's attacks came one after another, like a tide, forcing everyone into a desperate situation.

"This won't work!" Zhang Langzhong shouted anxiously while bandaging the wounded villagers, "We will be exhausted!"

"Don't panic, everyone!" said the old man in white in a deep voice, "hold on, reinforcements will arrive soon!"

However, the enemy's offensive became more and more fierce, and the defense line of everyone was shaking.

At this critical moment, the gray-haired hunter suddenly rushed out of the crowd, a sly smile appeared on the corner of his mouth, and he whispered: "It's time to show his real skills..."

The gray-haired hunter is agile, like a clever ape, shuttled through the narrow stone chamber passage.

While avoiding the enemy's attack, he quickly set up traps.

He took out a special dart from his waist, and the dart was covered with venom extracted from a plant called "Ghost Crying Vine".

The darts shot into the enemy group silently. During a few breaths, the enemy who was in the darts foamed at the mouth and fell to the ground.

"Good!" Luo Xiaoyu shouted excitedly, his eyes flashing with admiration.

The others also cheered, and the grey-haired hunter's wit and courage gave them great encouragement.

The morale, which was originally a little depressed, suddenly rose.

The fire of hope rekindled in the eyes of everyone. They knew that as long as they were united, they would definitely be able to overcome the predicament in front of them.

"Everyone work harder and drive these guys out!" Zhang Langzhong also waved the medicine pestle in his hand excitedly, as if it was a sharp sword.

The inspired people began to fight back more in an orderly manner.

The man in white had a sharp sword technique, and each sword carried a sharp sword energy, like a flash of lightning, splitting the enemy in half.

The swordsman in blue shirt has a flowing body, traveling through the enemy group like a ghost, and the long sword in his hand is like a poisonous snake spitting a letter, accurately piercing the enemy's vital points.

Although Xiaohong does not have strong force, she provides support to everyone in her own way.

She constantly bandaged wounds for her injured companions and encouraged them with gentle words.

With her encouragement, the injured companions cheered up and continued to fight.

Grandma Lin is like a kind elder, constantly cheering everyone up.

"Children, don't be afraid! We will definitely win!" Although her voice was not loud, it was full of power, making everyone feel extremely warm.

The man in white took the time to come to Xiaohong, gently held her hand, and gave her strength.

Xiaohong held his hand again, her eyes full of trust and love.

There is no need to say much between the two, one look or one move, one can understand each other's feelings.

With the joint efforts of everyone, the enemy's vanguard was finally repelled.

The shouts of killing in the stone chamber gradually subsided, and the air was filled with a strong smell of blood.

"We won!" Luo Xiaoyu jumped up excitedly, her face filled with joy of victory.

"Yes, we won." Xiaohong also showed a gratified smile, tears flashing in her eyes.

Everyone hugged each other and celebrated this hard-won victory.

They realize that they are stronger than they think, and as long as they are united, there are no difficulties that cannot be overcome.

However, just as everyone was immersed in the joy of victory, the surrounding environment suddenly changed...

Weird runes began to appear on the stone wall, and an unsettling aura filled the air.

"Wait..." The old man in white suddenly spoke, his voice was low and solemn, "It seems... something is wrong..."

The cheers in the stone chamber came to an abrupt end, and the joy in the air was replaced by an inexplicable chill.

Before the residual warmth of victory could be dissipated, the smiles on everyone's faces froze.

Xiaohong's heart sank suddenly, and an ominous premonition surged into her heart.

On the stone wall, scarlet runes suddenly appeared like blood vessels, pulsing with strange light, illuminating the originally rough stone wall to a gloomy and terrifying look.

There was a disgusting and fishy sweet smell in the air, like the saliva of some kind of wild beast, sticking to everyone's skin.

The excitement on Luo Xiaoyu's face faded instantly. She subconsciously held the weapon in her hand and looked around vigilantly.

Doctor Zhang held the injured Liehuo, frowned, and glanced sharply at the runes spreading on the stone wall.

Even the old man in white who had always been calm showed a solemn look at this moment. The crutches in his hand trembled slightly, as if he could sense some powerful force that was awakening.

"This... what is this?" Luo Xiaoyu's voice trembled, breaking the suffocating silence.

No one answered her.

In the darkness, something seemed to be ready to move, making a subtle rustling sound, like countless tiny claws crawling on the stone wall.

Fear spread like a plague, shaking everyone's throat tightly.
