Chapter 149 The Eve of the Final Battle**

**Chapter 149: The Eve of the Final Battle**

The morning light was just breaking, and the morning mist was lingering around the ancient castle, shrouding the once glorious castle in a hazy haze. The members of the Justice League gathered in the castle's hall, wearing the same uniform, with solemn expressions and eyes full of eager anticipation for the upcoming decisive battle.

"Comrades, we are about to face the final decisive battle." Lin Yu stood in the center of the hall, his voice loud and firm, "The lair of the ** forces is our target. Only by completely destroying it can we end this chaos and restore peace on the continent."

As soon as the words fell, deep applause broke out in the hall. The members encouraged each other, their eyes full of the belief that they would win.

"We are fully prepared." Li Yueran walked to Lin Yu's side and said, "I have prepared a large number of magic potions and some special magic props, which are enough to deal with the upcoming battle."

Su Yao took over the conversation: "I am also prepared. I made some invisibility potions and teleportation scrolls to ensure that we can sneak into the nest quietly and retreat at any time."

Zhao Hao clenched the sword in his hand and said in a deep voice: "I will be responsible for attracting the enemy's attention and ensure that you can complete the mission successfully."

Li Yueran added: "We will also use the resources of the Magic Academy to create some powerful magic barriers to protect us from the enemy's attacks."

Lin Yu looked around and saw that everyone was ready, so he waved his hand and said, "Then, let's go!"

Following the order, members of the Justice League walked out of the hall one after another. They split into three groups and headed in different directions.

On the first route, Li Yueran and Su Yao approached the old nest silently along the city wall. They carefully avoided the patrolling soldiers and successfully sneaked into the old nest.

On the second route, the team led by Zhao Hao created chaos outside the old nest. They used various means, such as magic attacks and explosive devices, to attract the enemy's attention and lead the enemy to the outside of the old nest.

The third team led by Lin Yu went directly to the core area of ​​the old nest. They used the resources of the magic academy to create some powerful magic barriers to protect them from the enemy's attacks.

Inside the nest, Li Yueran and Su Yao carefully avoided the patrolling soldiers. Their goal was to find the core members of the ** forces. However, the situation inside the nest was far more complicated than they imagined.

** The soldiers of the forces are well-trained, they have clear division of labor and tacit cooperation. Moreover, they also have some high-tech weapons, such as laser guns, energy cannons, etc.

Li Yueran and Su Yao killed the enemy all the way and kept moving forward. With their superb magic skills, they successfully repelled the enemy, but at the same time they paid a huge price.

"Su Yao, how are you?" Li Yueran asked with concern.

"I'm fine." Su Yao wiped the sweat from her forehead and replied, "We must persevere and not let them ruin our plan."

"I know." Li Yueran nodded, "We will definitely succeed."

At this moment, they suddenly found a door hidden in the wall. There were complex runes engraved on the door, which looked very ancient.

"What kind of door is this?" Su Yao asked puzzledly.

Li Yueran studied the runes on the door and said, "This should be the passage leading to the location of the core members of the ** force."

"Great!" Su Yao said excitedly, "Let's go in quickly!"

The two pushed open the door and found a long corridor. At the end of the corridor, the voices of the core members of the ** force were heard.

"Who are you? How dare you trespass into our lair!" A voice came from the end of the passage.

"We are members of the Justice League, and we are here to destroy you!" Li Yueran answered loudly.

"Hmph, don't even think about it!" A figure walked out from the end of the passage. He was tall and strong, with a face full of flesh and eyes full of ferocity.

"Are you the boss of the ** force?" Su Yao asked coldly.

"Yes, it's me!" The man paused, raised the sword in his hand, and stabbed towards Li Yueran.

Li Yueran dodged quickly and released a powerful magic attack at the same time. The magic attack instantly hit the man's body and knocked him out.

"You...you dare to hurt me?" The man lay on the ground, groaning in pain.

"We won't hurt you, but you must leave here, otherwise we will completely destroy you!" Li Yueran said coldly.

"Hmph, don't even think about it!" The man struggled to get up and swung his sword at Li Yueran again.

The two fought again, and the battle was extremely fierce. Li Yueran forced the man back with her superb magic skills, but she herself was also seriously injured.

At this moment, Su Yao suddenly discovered something, and she shouted to Li Yueran: "Look! What is that?"

Li Yueran followed Su Yao's line of sight and found a strange object. The object emitted a dazzling light and looked very unusual.

"What is that?" Li Yueran asked.

"I don't know, but we have to find out!" Su Yao said.

The two decided to let the man go for the time being, and they walked towards the strange object.

They found that the strange object was a shining stone with complex runes engraved on it, which emitted a mysterious light.

"This stone looks very powerful." Su Yao said.

"That's right, we should figure out its purpose." Li Yueran said.

At this moment, the leader of the ** force who was knocked flying also climbed up, and he rushed towards the two men with his sword.

Li Yueran and Su Yao immediately turned around and fought with the man again. The battle was extremely fierce and both sides suffered considerable damage.

Just then, a ray of light flashed, and Zhao Hao appeared beside them with a group of people.

"Are you okay?" Zhao Hao asked with concern.

"We are fine." Li Yueran wiped the sweat from his forehead and replied, "But we found this strange stone."

Zhao Hao took the stone, observed it carefully, and said: "This stone is likely to be an important treasure of the ** forces. We must find out its purpose."

Just then, a voice came from a distance: "Are you looking for this stone?"

The two followed the sound and saw a man in a black cloak.

"Who are you?" Li Yueran asked coldly.

"I am your friend." The man lifted his cloak, revealing his true face.

"Who are you?" Su Yao asked in surprise.

"I am Lao Li, your friend in the ancient world." Lao Li said with a smile.

"Old Li!" Li Yueran and Su Yao shouted excitedly, "Why are you here?"

"I'm here to help you." Lao Li said, "I know the secrets of the ** forces and the purpose of this stone."

Li Yueran and Su Yao told Lao Li what they had found. After listening, Lao Li said, "This stone is a powerful magical item. It can control the power of the ** forces, allowing us to defeat them easily."

"Great!" Li Yueran said excitedly, "Then, let's go control this stone and defeat the ** forces now!"

Under the leadership of Lao Li, Li Yueran, Su Yao and Lao Li came to the core area of ​​​​the ** forces together.

They discovered that the boss of that ** force was controlling a huge magic circle, which was emitting powerful energy fluctuations.

"Who are you? How dare you trespass into my territory!" the man shouted.

"We are members of the Justice League, and we are here to destroy you!" Li Yueran answered loudly.

"Hmph, don't even think about it!" The man swung his sword at Li Yueran.

Li Yueran dodged quickly and released a powerful magic attack at the same time. The magic attack instantly hit the man and knocked him out.

"You...you dare to hurt me?" The man lay on the ground, groaning in pain.

"We won't hurt you, but you must stop what you are doing!" Li Yueran said coldly.

At this moment, Lao Li suddenly walked up to the boss of the ** force, stretched out his hands, and placed his hands on the boss of the ** force.

"Do you think you can stop me?" the leader of the ** force shouted angrily.

"I can't do it." Lao Li said with a smile, "But I can help you."

After saying that, Lao Li placed his hands on the boss of the ** force, and a powerful energy flowed from Lao Li's body into the body of the boss of the ** force.

** The leader of the force felt a powerful force surging from his body, and he suddenly became crazy. He swung his sword at Li Yueran, Su Yao and Lao Li.

Li Yueran and Su Yao dodged immediately, and Lao Li stood in front of them.

"Let me do it!" Lao Li swung his sword at the boss of the ** forces.

** The leader of the force swung his sword to block, but his sword was knocked away by Lao Li's sword, and his body flew out.

"You...you!" The boss of the ** force looked at Lao Li in shock. He didn't know what was going on.

Lao Li walked up to the leader of the ** force and said with a smile: "I have helped you to remove the curse, you can return to normal."

** The leader of the faction looked at Lao Li with confusion in his eyes.

"Who are you?" he asked.

"I'm Lao Li, your friend." Lao Li said.

** The leader of the force was stunned, he didn't know what to say.

At this moment, the team led by Zhao Hao also arrived. When they saw that the boss of the ** force had been controlled by Lao Li, they relaxed their vigilance.

However, at this moment, the leader of the ** forces suddenly jumped up and swung his sword at Zhao Hao.

Zhao Hao was unable to dodge and was stabbed by the leader of the ** force.

"You guys retreat quickly!" Li Yueran shouted.

Zhao Hao and Su Yao dodged immediately, but the boss of the ** force had already caught up with them.

Li Yueran and Lao Li rushed forward immediately and started a fierce battle with the boss of the ** forces.

The battle was extremely fierce and both sides suffered considerable damage.

At this moment, Lao Li suddenly discovered that the huge magic circle was emitting a strong energy fluctuation.

"Oh no, the magic circle is about to be activated!" Old Li shouted.

Li Yueran and Su Yao rushed over immediately and stood in front of the magic circle.

"You guys retreat quickly!" Lao Li shouted.

Li Yueran and Su Yao retreated without hesitation. They looked at Lao Li with worry in their eyes.

Old Li stood in front of the magic circle, his body emitting dazzling light.

"For the peace of the mainland!" Lao Li shouted loudly.

With a loud bang, Lao Li's body disappeared, and his body was absorbed by the magic circle.

The energy fluctuations of the magic circle instantly increased, and a powerful energy burst out from the magic circle, knocking Li Yueran and Su Yao away.

** The leader of the force was also sent flying. His body was hit by the energy wave and turned into ashes.

When the energy fluctuations disappeared, Li Yueran and Su Yao got up from the ground. They looked at the disappeared Old Li with grief in their eyes.

"Old Li..." Su Yao burst into tears.

"Old Li, why did you do this?" Li Yueran asked.

"For the peace of the continent, for you!" Old Li's voice rang in the ears of Li Yueran and Su Yao.

Li Yueran and Su Yao looked at the disappearing Old Li with respect in their eyes.

At this moment, Zhao Hao came over. He looked at Li Yueran and Su Yao, smiled and said, "Old Li has completed his mission. He has made a great contribution to us."

Li Yueran and Su Yao looked at Zhao Hao with gratitude in their eyes.

"Thank you, Lao Li!" Su Yao said.

"Old Li, we will remember you forever!" said Li Yueran.

Zhao Hao nodded and said, "Old Li, don't worry, we will continue to fight for the peace of the continent and for justice!"

Li Yueran and Su Yao looked at Zhao Hao with determination in their eyes.

They know that their adventure is not over yet, and they will continue to fight for justice and peace!
