Chapter 906: "Fantasy World Crazy Battle: Lin Xiao Domineering Sweep the Army"
In the night beside the campfire, Lin Xiaosu's confusion and fear of waking up gradually dissipated, and under the hermit's concerned gaze, she felt a little warm. But the surge of the unknown power in her heart still made it difficult for her to calm down.
"Old sir, where does my power come from?" Lin Xiao's voice trembled a little, she needed an answer.
The hermit was silent for a moment, then slowly spoke: "The source of this power is probably related to the astrological signs when you were born. Your fate is closely connected to the stars, but I don't know why this power has only awakened at this moment."
Lin Xiao frowned, her past seemed to be shrouded in a mist. At this time, a young soldier approached. He was Lin Xiao's deputy Li Hong, with a handsome face and firm eyes.
"General, you just woke up and there is urgent military information coming from outside." Li Hong said in a low voice.
Lin Xiao nodded and motioned for him to continue.
"A strange incident occurred in a small border town in the north of the empire. Villagers in the town disappeared one after another, and..." Li Hong hesitated, "An eyewitness said that a strange light appeared in the sky at night."
Hearing this, a gleam of light flashed in the hermit's eyes: "This is related to the star power mentioned just now..."
Lin Xiao took a deep breath and stood up: "I must go and investigate in person."
Li Hong hurriedly said: "General, your body has not fully recovered yet, let me go."
Looking at Li Hong's resolute face, Lin Xiao's heart was moved, but she knew the responsibility she had on her shoulders. "No, this is my fate, I must face it."
The hermit suddenly said: "I have a feeling that all this is not a coincidence. Lin Xiao, your past may be closely related to this."
Lin Xiao, the hermit and Li Hong decided to go to a small town on the northern border together. As the camp gradually faded away under the night, they embarked on a new journey.
Along the way, Lin Xiao tried to learn more about his power from the hermit, but the hermit was always mysterious and only said that all the answers were in the northern town.
A few days later, they arrived at their destination. The town was unusually quiet, and there was an ominous atmosphere in the air.
They asked around in the town for information until an old woman told them an ancient legend: "A long time ago, there was a fallen star here. Legend has it that it brought divine power but also a curse."
Lin Xiao was shocked. Could this be related to the awakening of his power?
At this moment, a strange sound suddenly came from the woods outside the town. Lin Xiao immediately grabbed the sword and rushed to the source of the sound with Li Hong and the hermit.
The woods were completely dark. Suddenly, a black shadow passed by quickly. Lin Xiao responded quickly with his combat instincts and slashed at it with his sword.
As the sword flashed, she saw a figure in a black robe. The man was obviously surprised when he saw Lin Xiao: "You... actually followed me here!"
Lin Xiao asked cautiously: "Who are you? What's going on?"
The man in black robe was silent for a while, and finally said: "Be careful of the curse of the meteor. You are not the first person to pursue this secret, but I hope you will be the last one." After that, he disappeared into the darkness.
Lin Xiao returned to the town with a heavy heart. She knew that she was involved in a bigger conspiracy than she had imagined. The relationship between her and Li Hong also gradually changed in this series of events. The two relied on each other and their feelings gradually grew.
At night, Lin Xiao stood in front of the window, looking at the starry sky and thinking. Li Hong came over and asked softly, "Are you okay?"
Lin Xiao turned around and looked into Li Hong's eyes. "I don't know what's waiting for me ahead, but I know that no matter what, I can't escape anymore."
Li Hong held her hand and said, "No matter what happens, I will always be by your side."
Lin Xiao smiled and nodded, the burden in her heart seemed to be lightened by these words. She knew that even if the road ahead was full of thorns, she would no longer be fighting alone.
