Chapter 313 Water 7
So the group sat down together to discuss the matter. The white-haired elder spoke first: "Although we have undergone trials, we still need to determine who is most qualified to take the treasure and guard this place." Everyone nodded in agreement. At this moment, a young adventurer stood up, his eyes resolute, and said: "I believe strength should be the primary criterion. I have overcome numerous obstacles and defeated many demons to reach this place; my strength is sufficient to protect the treasure." Many people showed their agreement upon hearing this.
But a woman dressed in black robes gave a cold laugh: "Force alone is not enough; wisdom is also essential. If I hadn't solved all the puzzles and traps along the way, we would all have perished long ago." The others agreed that she was right.
Just as the two sides were deadlocked, a thin boy in the corner spoke timidly: "I... I have no strength, nor am I smart. But I have a pure heart. I only want to protect this land and its people. If the treasure falls into the hands of greedy people, it will only bring disaster."
Upon hearing this, the white-haired old man's eyes lit up, and he slowly said, "That's right. Treasures shouldn't become objects of fame and fortune. Your pure heart is perhaps the key to truly protecting it. Then you shall guard the treasure." The others, though unwilling, could not refute the old man's decision.
At this moment, a brave young man stepped forward. “I am willing to take on this responsibility. I have heard the legends of this land since I was a child, and my heart is filled with awe. I will not let down the treasures and my ancestors.” Everyone looked at him and saw sincerity and determination in his eyes.
However, some objected, arguing that the treasure and the land should be protected collectively. After much debate, a consensus was reached: the youth would take the lead, with everyone working together to manage the treasure and the land.
The boy approached the magical tomes, gently opened one, and a faint light flashed as the book's magic flowed into his body, granting him greater wisdom and strength to protect the place. The others began to inventory the gold, silver, and other treasures, and carefully placed them away.
However, the peace did not last long. The dark forces in the distance sensed the fluctuations of magic here, and an evil army marched in from all directions. They exuded a black aura, and wherever they went, flowers and plants withered.
Sensing the impending danger, the boy immediately rallied the others. "Friends, darkness is coming. This is a new challenge we face, and a trial we must endure to protect our treasure and our land." The group gripped their weapons tightly, showing no fear.
The battle began. The boy used his newly acquired magic to cast powerful spells to repel the enemy's vanguard, while the others cooperated, some attacking and others healing the wounded. Despite the Dark Legion's large numbers, they were united in their resolve.
Just as the battle reached a stalemate, the boy discovered the location of the Dark Lord. He concentrated all his magic power, focusing it into a single point, and charged towards the enemy leader. After a thrilling duel, the boy successfully defeated the leader, and the Dark Legion crumbled instantly. Through this battle, the boy and the others became even more closely united, becoming the eternal guardians of this mysterious land. He then plotted how to use the silver and jewels to benefit the surrounding people.
Following the rules of the ancient palace, they rearranged the defenses and recorded their experience, hoping that future generations would treat the treasure and the land with kindness. Having done all this, they left the secret chamber with satisfaction and a sense of mission, and the palace returned to its former tranquility.
