Zhao De and the others gathered around, watching with a mixture of tension and excitement as Zhao De slowly lifted the lid of the golden chest. When the last mechanism of the treasure chest was triggered, a dazzling light instantly filled the entire space—inside the chest was an ancient scroll and a crystal-clear red gem.
"This is...this is the legendary Dragon Soul!" Guo Jing exclaimed excitedly, "It can control the elements of nature and greatly enhance the user's power!"
Many onlookers had already stopped what they were doing and were pointing and whispering among themselves.
"Look, they really defeated the dragon! It's incredible!"
"My goodness, I heard that these warriors also found an incredibly precious Dragon Soul... They're just like the heroes described in novels, so enviable."
Just as everyone was praising their bravery, Zhao De eagerly placed his hand on the book. With a gentle touch of his fingertips, he felt as if he were enveloped in a warm, gentle, yet vast and magnificent vortex of energy…
"Wow! What happened to you? You seem to be radiating a different kind of light!" Zhao De exclaimed in surprise. Zhao De was now surrounded by a pale purple aura, giving off an indescribable sense of security and power; even his demeanor seemed to have become much more mature and composed.

Just then, someone suddenly ran up from behind, shouting for help.
Oh no! The forces of darkness have begun their attack on the village again!!
Everyone immediately stopped smiling and went on alert. "Let's go. Protecting civilians is our top priority," Zhao De ordered in a deep voice. He then led his team quickly to the scene of the incident.
-
The pedestrians along the way were talking about it:
These guys are really something; they defeated a giant dragon in no time, and now they're even bravely facing the enemy's attack...
Yes, heroes like this are truly rare.
But then again, that newly appeared squad leader seems particularly extraordinary...
Soon, the team arrived at the outskirts of the village and discovered that the situation was far worse than they had imagined: the enemy was launching a massive attack, and the villagers were scattering in all directions, utterly powerless to resist. Suddenly, Zhao De swung his arm, unleashing a dazzling array of shields that covered the entire battlefield, and in a resolute voice, he rallied morale: "Brothers and sisters, don't be afraid! With us here, we will never let anyone get hurt!"
In an instant, the previously panicked crowd quieted down, and even a few young soldiers gripped their weapons, ready to join the battle.
-
Just as tensions were about to rise, the leader of the men in black suddenly stopped and asked with a puzzled look, "Who are you? Why are you here to obstruct our operation?"
At this moment, Zhao De smiled and replied, "I am the true hero you are looking for, the one who can save the world!" With that, he summoned a huge blade formed from pure energy and slashed at his opponent.
This move drew gasps of amazement from the surrounding audience: "Wow! Is this legendary skill?! That's incredibly cool!"
Just as Zhao De was preparing to launch a further attack, a hurried shout suddenly came from deep within the village: "Zhao De! Wait!" The voice was familiar and anxious; it was Zhao De.
Zhao De's hand paused slightly, and he turned to look behind him. He saw Zhao De and Guo Jing rushing over, panting heavily, their expressions showing a hint of tension.
"What's wrong?" Zhao De asked, frowning. "The situation is urgent, we can't waste any more time."
"Wait, don't act yet." Zhao De shook his head, signaling him to calm down. "I've noticed something unusual. This attack... might be a trap."
Zhao De's eyes flashed, and he said in a deep voice, "Explain clearly."
Just then, a little girl standing not far away suddenly shouted, "Look! That giant dragon has appeared again! It's on the horizon!"
A commotion erupted among the crowd, with many screaming and fleeing. But some brave villagers stopped, looking at the sky with a mixture of curiosity and fear.
Guo Jing quickly looked up and saw a blurry shadow rapidly approaching. "Damn it, it really is it. But how did it recover so quickly?"
Zhao De frowned, chanting incantations to reinforce the barrier once more, her eyes filled with doubt.
"Everyone, be on high alert and prepare your defenses. Zhao De, tell me what you've discovered." Zhao De's eyes were sharp as an eagle's, fixed on the increasingly large figure.
"After the battle, I examined the fallen dragon's corpse and noticed something was off," Zhao De explained. "Its skin was unusually tough and regenerated far too quickly, even stronger than before."

Zhao De continued, "You mean this giant dragon is actually a puppet? Controlled by some kind of powerful magic?"
At this moment, the leader of the men in black sneered, "Hmph, it seems you've already discovered us. That's right, this is only a portion of our forces. The real mastermind has no desire to confront you small fry head-on."
More murmurs erupted from the crowd:
"What the hell? Even the monsters are fake? That's terrifying..."
"So, was the fight just now also a ruse...? These people are really capable of doing big things."
Everyone was shocked by this sudden bombardment of information. The villagers, in particular, looked worried, because for them, whether the information was true or false, anything that threatened their safety was enough to warrant attention.
Just as the air seemed to freeze, Zhao De suddenly laughed, "Very good, now you finally know who your opponent is, don't you? Since you're unwilling to come out and resolve your grudges directly, then I'll take the initiative!"
Having said that, he turned and walked towards the increasingly conspicuous figure on the horizon, his steps firm and fearless. His comrades behind him and the onlookers were deeply moved by his courage…
"Brother Zhao De!" a boy shouted excitedly, "Are you sure you're okay charging in like that?"
Upon hearing this, the young leader turned around and smiled, "Where there's a will, there's a way. Trusting each other, fighting side by side until final victory—that's the principle we've always upheld."
Then, in full view of everyone, it spread its wings of light and soared into the sky.
-
“Wait,” the men in black exchanged a meaningful glance, “If we let that guy continue to grow, he will probably pose a great threat to us in the future… We must stop him now!” After saying that, the leader took the lead and led the remaining men to give chase, intending to stop Zhao De from further exploring the truth.
-
"Hurry up and follow!" Guo Jing was the first to react and shouted, then he, Zhao De, and Zhao De followed closely behind into the chase.
As several forces clashed and engaged in fierce battle, many people watching the developments on the sidelines held their breath, hoping to get the latest information; in particular, everyone was very concerned about whether Zhao De could successfully expose the identity of the manipulator behind the dark forces.
In the sky, the colossal form of the dragon loomed intermittently among the clouds, while the people on the ground were filled with unprecedented tension and anticipation. Amidst this chaos, Zhao De's figure, like a sharp sword piercing the sky, flew fearlessly towards the dragon.
"Wow! Look at that person!" a daring child shouted, pointing at the point of light in the sky. "He's facing such a terrifying beast all by himself! He's so brave!"
“That’s right,” an older man next to him nodded, “but we still have to be careful. That monster looks pretty powerful.”
Meanwhile, many villagers had already gathered together to discuss: "Who exactly is this warrior? He seems like a figure from mythology."
An old man slowly spoke up: "It's good that the young man has courage, but can he really win?" Before he finished speaking, a murmur of discussion arose from the surroundings.
At this moment, the three men following closely behind Zhao De also entered the battlefield. "Make sure you keep up with him!" Guo Jing shouted, "We can't let these villains have a chance!"

As Zhao De ran, she chanted several obscure yet powerfully enigmatic words. A pale yellow light enveloped her, making her appear even more imposing. "Everyone, get ready! The enemy will appear soon!" Zhao Wen warned.
As the group of men in black began to approach rapidly, their leader sneered, "Don't think you can escape our control like this. We'll stop you no matter what today!"
Zhao De didn't stop; instead, he increased his speed to catch up with the approaching enemy. "You cowards hiding in the shadows," he shouted, "why did you create such a terrifying being to wreak havoc on the world? Give me a reason first!"
As soon as the words were spoken, the two were already very close. Then, a deafening "boom" resounded, and both unleashed their ultimate techniques in a fierce clash; instantly, the wind and clouds changed color, lightning flashed, and thunder roared, as if the entire world was trembling at this battle…
"This is amazing!" a young farmer exclaimed, his eyes wide. "It's like a dream."
However, not everyone reacted so positively. "Oh my god...this is so scary!" A woman nearby was trembling as she held her child.
Meanwhile, the others on the ground also joined the melee. "Go, heroes!" A little girl clenched her fists and cheered for her idol.
As the battle intensified, Zhao De gained a slight advantage through sheer willpower; however, it was clear that the men in black were no pushovers either, and after a few probing attacks, they quickly adjusted their strategy and launched another fierce assault...
Just as the battle reached a stalemate, a sudden commotion arose from the ground. A young villager came running up, panting, shouting, "Something's wrong! It seems something's happened in the village too! Unidentified people are causing trouble!"
This sudden intelligence immediately diverted Zhao De and the others' attention. "What? They're attacking at the same time?" Guo Jing frowned. "We can't let innocent civilians get hurt..." After a slight hesitation, he decided, "Zhao De, you stay here and support Zhao De. I'll go handle things in the village."
"Okay." Zhao De nodded quickly, a hint of worry flashing in his eyes, but even more so, trust in his comrade. "Be very careful."
At that very moment, the battlefield in the sky shifted once more. The leader of the men in black clearly noticed the little incident below, a strange smile appearing on his lips. "It seems your team isn't so stable after all... Now is our chance!" With that, he brandished his long sword, leading a group of similarly dressed men behind him to rush towards the figure of light in the air with even greater speed.
"Dream on!" Zhao De snorted coldly, facing the challenge head-on without flinching despite the loss of his comrades. He silently thanked each of his partners for the strength they had given him—it was their unbreakable bond that had sustained him all the way. "For all those who believe in justice and peace, I will never be defeated by such evil forces!"
On the ground, the villagers who had just arrived cheered for the magnificent sight in the sky.
-
Wow! Is that really something a human could do?
He's a hero! I wish I were that powerful.
Stop overthinking! The important thing is to help guard this place!

Meanwhile, under Guo Jing's leadership, some able-bodied young men and several elderly people spontaneously formed a patrol team and rushed back to the village to deal with any emergencies. "Everyone, please make sure your families are safe!" he commanded while deploying defensive strategies and attempting to contact the outside world for further support using communication talismans.
Just when everything seemed to be gradually getting under control, a deafening sound suddenly came from the sky—clearly, the battle had escalated to a more intense stage. Many of the onlookers became increasingly anxious as a result.
"I hope that warrior can return victorious... It's so nerve-wracking!"
"Hmm... but I feel like the enemy we're facing this time is quite strong..."
Just as everyone held their breath awaiting the result, the once clearly visible dragon puppet seemed to begin to fade away, as if it were about to disappear...
Just as everyone was discussing this, a dazzling light suddenly shone in the sky, illuminating the entire battlefield. Zhao De's figure appeared and disappeared in the light, his hands clenched into fists, surrounded by an even more brilliant halo. "It seems I have no choice but to use my last trump card!" he muttered to himself through gritted teeth, his heart filled with indomitable spirit.
