Chapter 336 The Villain Lady Arrives 165
"Why are you here?" Tariq looked at the woman in white in front of him, curiosity and expectation flashing in his eyes.
The woman in white smiled slightly, and that smile was like the warm sunshine in spring, warming people's hearts. "I came for you, and for the future of this continent." There was a hint of mystery and solemnity in her words, "You are the key to changing all this."
Hearing this, Tariq felt an inexplicable excitement in his heart. He seemed to see his future path, a path full of challenges and opportunities. He took a deep breath and said firmly:
"I am willing to take on this responsibility, no matter how difficult the road ahead is."
The woman in white nodded, with approval and encouragement in her eyes. "Very good, Tariq. Remember, you are not alone. There are many people like you in this world, and they are waiting for your guidance."
As the white-clothed woman finished her words, the surrounding scenery changed again. A powerful force surged out of her body, turning into dots of light and falling on Tariq. He felt an unprecedented power surge into his body, as if the whole world was cheering for him.
"This is..." Tariq looked at his body in surprise, feeling the powerful force.
"This is your power, and it's proof that you're a hero," the woman in white explained. "Go, Tariq. Use your courage and wisdom to change the world."
Tariq stood there, his eyes wandering around, trying to find the answer from this valley caressed by the moonlight. The figure of the woman in white had quietly disappeared, leaving only the faint fragrance in the air and the lingering mysterious power. He slowly raised his hand, and there seemed to be a faint light beating in his palm. It was a feeling he had never had before, a power awakening from deep in his heart.
"I...what happened?" Tariq muttered to himself, with a hint of confusion in his voice. He looked around, trying to find the answer from the faces of Leah, Eleanor and Sophia, but they were also confused, but their eyes were shining with curiosity and concern for Tariq's changes.
Leah stepped forward and asked with concern: "Tariq, are you okay? You seem... a little different."
Tariq shook his head, trying to calm himself down. "I'm fine, I just... I feel a surge of strength in my body. This feeling is both strange and familiar, like something I've been looking for, and suddenly I have it."
Eleanor's eyes flashed with surprise when she heard this. "Is this... the power given to you by the woman in white? Who is she, and why is she so powerful?"
Sophia seemed calmer. She analyzed softly, "No matter who that woman is, she obviously has special expectations for Tariq. This power may be the turning point we have been looking for. Tariq, are you ready to accept this responsibility?"
Tariq took a deep breath and his eyes became firm. "Yes, I am ready. No matter how difficult the road ahead is, I will move forward bravely. This power will be my weapon to protect you and this continent."
At this moment, a breeze blew, bringing the rustling of leaves in the distance, as if nature was cheering for Tariq's determination. He closed his eyes, feeling the surging power in his body, and an unprecedented confidence and courage surged in his heart.
"Let's go," Tariq opened his eyes and looked into the darkness in the distance. "Since fate has pushed me onto this path, I will explore its end. No matter what is there, I will face it calmly."
Leah, Eleanor and Sofia smiled at each other, knowing that Tariq was no longer the boy who needed their protection, but had grown into a true warrior. They followed Tariq closely and embarked on this unknown journey.
As they went deeper into the valley, the scenery around them became increasingly strange. The tall trees seemed to be given life, with glimmers of light between their branches, guiding them in the direction they were heading. Tariq could feel this force resonating with the power within him, as if it was guiding him towards some important destination.
"Look, there!" Eleanor suddenly pointed ahead and shouted. On an open grassland, an ancient altar stood quietly, with complex totems and runes carved on it, emitting a faint light.
Tariq's heart moved, and he felt a strong call coming from the altar, which was the source of his power. He walked forward without hesitation and stepped onto the steps of the altar. Every step seemed to be on the vein of time, making him feel the weight and vicissitudes of history.
When he stood on the altar, a powerful force instantly surrounded him. He closed his eyes and let the power rage and merge in his body, eventually turning into his own power. Countless images flashed through his mind, about the history of this continent, about the legends of heroes, about the prophecy of the future...
When he opened his eyes again, his eyes had become deep and firm. He knew that he was no longer an ordinary knight, but a hero who had been entrusted with the mission of protecting this continent. He looked at Leah, Eleanor, and Sophia, his eyes full of gratitude and determination.
"Thank you for always being with me," Tariq said in a deep and powerful voice. "You gave me strength and courage. Now, I will use this strength to protect our common home."
When Leah, Eleanor and Sophia heard this, tears flashed in their eyes. They knew that at this moment, Tariq was no longer the boy who needed their protection, but a strong supporter they could rely on.
"We believe in you, Tariq," Leah said softly, her voice full of trust and pride.
"We will follow you wherever you go," Eleanor added, her eyes gleaming with determination.
"Yes, we will always be with you." Sophia nodded in agreement.
Tariq smiled. He felt the support and warmth from his friends. He knew that no matter how difficult the future would be, he would not be alone. He turned to face the altar, took a deep breath, and prepared to face the upcoming challenges.
At this moment, the runes on the altar suddenly lit up, and a powerful force surged out of the altar, turning into a beam of light that shot straight into the sky. The entire valley was shaken by this power, as if even the stars were trembling.
"This is..." Tariq looked at the scene in front of him in surprise. He felt that there was some kind of connection between him and this power. He closed his eyes and used his heart to feel the mystery and truth of this power.
When he opened his eyes again, his eyes had become extremely determined. He knew that he was ready to meet the challenges and opportunities of the future. He looked at Leah, Eleanor and Sofia, smiled and said, "Let's go and create our own legend."
