Me? I was transported into a book? And I became a vicious villain?

Chapter 143 Dreams Come True

The four words "Source of Darkness" hit everyone's heart like a bolt of lightning. Chu Mengmeng carefully opened the ancient diary, and a smell of decay came to her face, as if she had crossed a long period of time and space, pulling them back to that dusty period.

The diary paper was yellowed, and the handwriting was sloppy, as if it was written with the blood of some unknown animal, exuding a strange aura. In the weak light, Chu Mengmeng read it out word by word.

"I am the guardian of the source of darkness. I was ordered to guard here and prevent the spread of the power of darkness...Darkness is not inherently evil. It was originally a part of the world, just like light and shadow, interdependent..."

As Chu Mengmeng tells the story, a long-forgotten story gradually surfaces.

It turns out that the dark forces are not inherently evil, but are contaminated by something called "seeds of desire". This seed parasitizes deep in the human mind, and once it is nourished by negative emotions such as greed, jealousy, and hatred, it will grow rapidly and eventually devour the human soul, turning it into a puppet of the dark forces.

The author of the diary is a guardian who exists to prevent this disaster. They have guarded the source of darkness for generations, preventing the "seed of desire" from falling into the hands of bad people. However, in the end, someone could not resist the temptation, opened Pandora's box, and released the dark power into the world.

"It turns out that the source of the dark power lies in us humans ourselves..." Lin Wan'er murmured to herself, her tone full of disbelief.

Su Mubai also fell into deep thought. He had always thought that the dark force was just a pure evil force, and as long as it was eliminated, world peace could be achieved. But now it seems that things are much more complicated than he imagined.

Xiao Yichen held Chu Mengmeng's hand tightly and gave her a firm look. "Mengmeng, we have a more important responsibility."

Chu Mengmeng understood what he meant. They not only had to fight against the external dark forces, but also had to purify the human mind from within and prevent the spread of the "seed of desire". This was a more difficult and longer battle, but they were ready.

The last page of the diary recorded a mysterious prophecy: "When darkness falls, light will follow. Only those with pure hearts can find the light of hope to defeat darkness..."

The end of the prophecy is a strange pattern, which looks like a map or an ancient formation.

"What secret is hidden in this pattern?" Chu Mengmeng looked at the pattern, her heart full of doubts.

A new journey is about to begin...

"We can't just passively resist the darkness," Chu Mengmeng closed the diary and said firmly, "This diary gives us inspiration. If we want to truly defeat the darkness, we must start from the root."

Xiao Yichen held her hand, feeling the warmth of her palm, his eyes gentle but firm: "You are right, Mengmeng. The 'seed of desire' is the breeding ground for darkness. We must find a way to purify our hearts."

The mysterious guardian who had been silent all this time sighed softly at this moment: "It is not easy for you to be so aware. It seems that the prophecy is true. You are the light of hope."

Chu Mengmeng and Xiao Yichen looked at each other, their hearts filled with surprise. They didn't expect that this guardian would think so highly of them.

"You mean, we can really find a way to purify our minds?" Chu Mengmeng asked anxiously, with a gleam of hope in her eyes.

"Everything in the world is interdependent. Where there is yin, there must be yang. Where there is darkness, there must be light." The mysterious guardian said slowly, "Although the 'Seed of Desire' is terrible, the power of light is equally strong. As long as you have good intentions and firm beliefs, you can find a way to defeat darkness."

"But what should we do?" Xiao Yichen asked.

The mysterious guardian pointed at the strange pattern and said, "This pattern is the key to the Temple of Light, which contains the power to purify the soul. You can go there to find the answer."

"Temple of Light?" Chu Mengmeng and Xiao Yichen asked in unison.

“Yes, the Temple of Light is the source of light power and the spiritual home of all guardians.” The mysterious guardian explained, “But the road to the temple is full of dangers. Only those with firm beliefs can reach it.”

"We are willing to accept the test!" Chu Mengmeng and Xiao Yichen answered without hesitation, their eyes full of determination and courage. In order to protect the world and purify the human mind, they are willing to give everything.

The mysterious guardian nodded with satisfaction and said, "Very good, I was right about you. From today on, I will teach you more knowledge and skills about the power of light to help you embark on this new journey."

Chu Mengmeng and Xiao Yichen knelt down gratefully and accepted the teachings of the guardian. They knew that the road ahead would be more difficult, but they were ready. In order to protect the light in their hearts, they would go on without hesitation.

At this moment, Su Mubai and Lin Wan'er were also looking at them, with complex emotions flashing in their eyes...

Su Mubai and Lin Wan'er looked at each other, and they could see the emotions in each other's eyes. They had always regarded Chu Mengmeng and Xiao Yichen as competitors, but at this moment, they only had admiration and emotion in their hearts.

"We are also willing to work with you to protect this world." Su Mubai stepped forward and said in a firm tone.

Lin Wan'er also nodded. Although she didn't say anything, her eyes said it all.

Chu Mengmeng and Xiao Yichen looked at them in surprise, and a warm current surged in their hearts. They knew that in this world full of darkness and unknowns, only unity can overcome all difficulties.

The mysterious guardian looked at this group of young people with satisfaction. They were emitting a dazzling light, which was the light of hope and the hope for the future.

"Very good," the mysterious guardian said slowly, "From today on, you are the last guardians of this world. Your mission is to protect the light and dispel the darkness."

To commemorate this important moment and to demonstrate their determination, the City Guardian team decided to hold a simple and solemn ceremony in the ruins.

As the sun sets, the golden afterglow falls on the ancient ruins, adding a touch of warmth and hope to this silent land.

Chu Mengmeng, Xiao Yichen, Su Mubai and Lin Wan'er stood side by side in the center of the ruins. They were dressed in black, holding their own weapons, with solemn and dignified expressions.

A mysterious guardian stood in front of them, holding high a crystal stone that emitted a faint glow. It was the Stone of Light, representing light and hope.

"Please raise your right hands, hold your weapons tightly, and swear to the Stone of Light!" The voice of the mysterious guardian echoed in the empty ruins.

Chu Mengmeng and others raised their right hands without hesitation, gripped their weapons tightly, and stared at the Stone of Light with firm eyes.

"I, Chu Mengmeng/Xiao Yichen/Su Mubai/Lin Wan'er, hereby solemnly swear:"

"We will always protect the peace and light of the world!"

"We will fight all the dark forces to the end, until we die!"

"We will use our lives to defend the future of mankind!"

Their voices were sonorous and powerful, echoing in the ruins for a long time, as if declaring their determination to the whole world.

After the oath, the mysterious guardian handed the Stone of Light to Chu Mengmeng and said, "From today on, you are the captain of the City Guardian Team. You must lead your companions to complete your mission."

Chu Mengmeng solemnly took the Stone of Light, feeling the warmth and strength coming from it. Her heart was filled with a sense of responsibility and mission.

After the ceremony, the City Guardian team embarked on a new journey. Their figures appeared particularly determined in the afterglow of the setting sun, and their story will continue to be written...

The afterglow of the setting sun gradually faded, and night fell. The ruins became even quieter in the darkness. Chu Mengmeng held the light stone that emitted warm light in her hand, but she did not feel at ease.

"Mengmeng, what's wrong?" Xiao Yichen keenly noticed her emotional changes and asked softly.

Chu Mengmeng raised her head and looked at him, then looked at Su Mubai and Lin Wan'er beside her, and sighed softly: "I was just wondering, can we really take on the responsibility of protecting the world?"

Her question was also the same as the other three people's. Although they had proven their abilities in the ruins and had been recognized by the mysterious guardian, they were still uneasy in the face of the unknown dark power.

"Mengmeng, don't worry," Su Mubai patted her shoulder and said in a relaxed tone, "We are a team and will face all challenges together."

"That's right," Lin Wan'er also nodded in agreement, "Besides, we also have the mysterious guardian and the Stone of Light. We will definitely be able to defeat the forces of darkness."

Xiao Yichen didn't say anything, but just held Chu Mengmeng's hand. His eyes were firm and gentle, as if silently conveying strength and courage.

Chu Mengmeng held his hand back, feeling the warmth of his palm, and her heart gradually calmed down. Yes, they are a team, they have a common goal and belief, and they will definitely be able to overcome all difficulties.

"Mysterious guardian, what should we do next?" Chu Mengmeng looked at the mysterious guardian who had been silent and asked.

The mysterious guardian slowly opened his eyes, his deep gaze seemed to be able to see through everything: "The root of the power of darkness lies in the human heart. Only by purifying the human heart can the darkness be completely eliminated."

His words made the four people fall into deep thought. Purifying people's hearts? How easy is that?

“You don’t have to worry too much,” the mysterious guardian seemed to see through their thoughts, “I will guide you and help you find a way to purify your heart.”

He paused, then continued: "Now, you go back and rest. I will tell you the specific plan tomorrow."

The four said goodbye to the mysterious guardian and walked out of the ruins. The night sky was dotted with stars, and the moonlight fell on them, covering them with a layer of silver light. Their figures seemed particularly firm in the night, and their eyes were full of hope and determination.

However, they didn't know that in the dark corner, a pair of malicious eyes were watching their every move...
