Chapter 235 The Villain Lady Arrives 63
Tariq stepped forward, patted the woman's back with his broad palm, and said with a smile: "Don't say that, we just did what we should do. Remember, true strength comes from inner strength and courage. You have proved that you have these. No matter what difficulties you encounter in the future, you must face them bravely."
Mia took out several bottles of water and some dry food from her backpack and distributed them to everyone: "The journey may be a little tough, so take these first and eat when you are hungry or thirsty on the way." There was a gentle light in her eyes, as if she was giving them more support and encouragement in her own way.
After everything was ready, the team set out on the journey to Dawn Town with the rescued women.
Along the way, the women sometimes whispered to each other, sharing their stories and dreams; sometimes they looked up into the distance, their eyes flashing with curiosity and expectation about the unknown world. The team members were always alert to the surrounding movements to ensure the safety of the team.
As time went by, the sun gradually sank to the west, and the sky was stained with a gorgeous sunset glow. The team found a relatively safe camp and prepared to spend the night there. Irene and Mia were busy setting up the tent, Tariq was responsible for making a fire, and Leo was checking the weapons to make sure they were safe.
The women sat around the fire, their faces filled with unprecedented peace and warmth. One of them hummed a ballad, the song was melodious and beautiful, as if it could dispel all fatigue and fear. The team members were also infected by this warm atmosphere and joined the chorus. The song echoed in the night sky, conveying hope and strength.
After dinner, everyone sat closer together. Leo cleared his throat and said, "Tonight, I want to say a few words to everyone. First, I am honored to be a part of your journey. I admire your strength and courage. Second, I hope you can remember that no matter what challenges you encounter in the future, don't give up hope. Dawn Town is just the starting point of your new life, and the real journey has just begun."
The women were moved and nodded in agreement. The older woman stood up excitedly and said, "Captain is right! We must keep moving forward with courage and hope. I believe that in Dawn Town, we will find our own home and start a new life."
As the night deepened, the fire gradually died out, leaving only a few embers flickering in the darkness. The team members and the women returned to their tents to rest and prepare for tomorrow's challenges. In their dreams, they might continue to weave stories about courage, love and hope.
The next morning, when the first ray of sunlight broke through the clouds and shone on the earth, the team and the women were ready to go. They said goodbye to the camp last night and set off on the last leg of the journey to Dawn Town.
As the distance kept shortening, the women became more and more excited. They stopped from time to time and looked at the unknown land in the distance, with expectation in their eyes. The team members accompanied them silently, giving them support and encouragement in their own way.
Finally, after several days of trekking, they saw the outline of Chenxi Town in the distance. The town was built by the mountains and the water, with smoke rising from the chimneys, which contrasted with the blue sky and white clouds, forming a peaceful and harmonious picture.
"Look! That's Dawn Town!" a young woman shouted excitedly, her voice full of joy and excitement. Other women also stopped and looked at the long-desired land, tears in their eyes.
The team members smiled at each other. They knew what this moment meant to the girls. Leo stepped forward and clapped his hands: "Okay, everyone, get ready. We are about to enter the town. Remember, keep smiling and show your best side."
The women nodded, and arranged their clothes and hair accessories, trying to welcome the new life in the best condition. When they stepped into Dawn Town, all their fatigue and fear seemed to disappear, replaced by infinite vision and hope for the future.
The residents of the town warmly welcomed the guests from afar, provided them with clothes, food and temporary shelter, and helped them gradually adapt to the new environment.
The women also found their own jobs and homes in the town. Some became apprentices in tailor shops, some helped in taverns, and others began to learn literacy and arithmetic to lay a solid foundation for their future.
After completing the escort mission, the team members returned to the Mercenary Union. They handed in their mission and received their due remuneration and rewards. In the union, they heard many rumors and stories about Dawn Town, which strengthened their belief in justice and courage.
"It seems that Dawn Town is a really nice place." Tariq said with a smile, "Those women will definitely live a happy life there."
"Yes, we can leave now without any worries." Irene added, "However, before we leave, we still need to replenish some resources. After all, there is still a long way to go."
So, the team members set out on their journey again. They went to the nearby market and caravan and bought enough supplies and equipment. After being fully prepared, they embarked on a new journey and continued to pursue their own adventures and dreams.
The women in Dawn Town have not forgotten the kindness of the team. They often gather together to tell the story of that thrilling journey and those brave and fearless warriors. They keep this kindness in their hearts and pass on the story of courage, love and hope in their own way.
As time goes by, the names of the team members may gradually be forgotten in the long river of history, but their stories and spirits will always shine like the morning sun for those who need courage and hope.
And those women in Chenxi Town will continue to move forward on their own paths and write their own legendary chapters with their own strength.
As Tariq and his team members continue their adventure, going deep into unknown areas and challenging powerful enemies one after another, Alice in the magic academy falls into unprecedented loneliness and confusion.
Ever since Tariq left, her world seemed to have lost its color. The days when she and Tariq discussed magic and shared dreams side by side could now only be found in memories.
Alice sat in the corner of the library, tightly holding the ancient magic book that they had read together in her hands, staring at the occasional bird flying outside the window with empty eyes, feeling mixed emotions in her heart.
Beside her, there was no longer Tariq's hearty laughter, nor his focused eyes as he patiently answered her questions. Everything seemed so quiet and desolate.
