I am the Holy Poisoner, the Empress advised me to calm down

"Yeah, especially Brother Li Ming's performance!" another soldier said excitedly, turning to the crowd nearby. "You know what? That seemingly ordinary young man actually accomplished something none of us could. It's truly amazing!"

Hearing this, an old soldier nearby patted the young soldier on the shoulder and said, "Young man, you still have to keep working hard. But don't be too self-deprecating. After all, heroes grow up step by step like this."

Meanwhile, the atmosphere on the battlefield gradually relaxed, and everyone began to share their experiences and feelings. Many people gathered around, hoping to catch a glimpse of the young man who had just become a hero.

"Hey, brother," someone patted Li Ming on the back and said admiringly, "You were so handsome just now. I almost thought I was dreaming!"

"Thank you." Li Ming responded with a smile and nodded to everyone to express his gratitude. "But this is not just the strength of one person. It is the unity of all of us that will lead to the final victory."

At this moment, a girl in plain clothes quietly came to the little girl's side and said, "Sister, that crystal ball is so magical. Where did it come from?"

The little girl smiled gently at the other girl. "That's a sacred object from ancient legends. It contains extremely powerful power that can help us fight against evil forces and protect the world from harm."

"Wow, that sounds awesome!" The little girl's eyes sparkled with curiosity and longing. "I also hope to be a hero like you!"

"Of course you can. As long as your heart is full of love and courage, anyone can do it," the little girl encouraged.

As everyone was chatting happily, Xiaoyue's expression suddenly changed, as if she had noticed something unusual. She quickly turned her gaze in the direction of the mysterious group mentioned earlier and whispered to Luo Feng, "Do you think they were also attracted by this strange force? After all, what's happening here is so unusual."

Luo Feng nodded solemnly upon hearing this, then looked at the little girl and the two guardians who were chatting with others, "We should discuss a response strategy in advance. Although we don't know the other party's specific intentions yet... it's always better to be prepared."

The Guardian seemed to have overheard their conversation and approached, saying, "We truly cannot let our guard down. I've already contacted a few trusted friends and have them on standby for support. And from what I understand, these people are likely affiliated with an ancient and powerful organization, and they might even have a crucial impact on the outcome!"

By this time, Li Ming had finished chatting with his comrades and returned to their side. After listening to this conversation, he frowned and asked, "So what should we do now? Are we just going to wait for the unknown to unfold?"

The Guardian thought for a moment and replied, "Right now, the most important thing is to recover our strength and remain on high alert. We also need to gather as much information as possible about these outsiders so we can make a better judgment. Most importantly, we must unite and face all challenges together."

As her words fell, the entire space seemed to be filled with renewed fighting spirit. The atmosphere among the people once again became tense, and everyone was silently preparing for the uncertain future that lay ahead.

At this moment of apprehension yet anticipation, a courageous and curious young man couldn't help but ask, "So... should we welcome or fight these strangers?"

Xiaoyue's lips curled up slightly as she gave a firm and meaningful answer: "Who knows? Perhaps only when we're face to face can we tell the outcome. But until that moment comes, neither of us will back down easily."

These words ignited a flame of hope that inspired everyone. No matter what challenges lay ahead, they were ready to forge ahead and write their own glorious chapter...

"Well, no matter what, we must believe that light will always triumph over darkness." Li Ming took over the topic, looking toward the distant horizon with a firm heart. "Because we are not just fighting for ourselves, but for every soul waiting for the arrival of light."

Thus, the beginning of this seemingly calm yet turbulent story leaves endless room for imagination. What fate awaits these heroes in the future? All will be revealed in the subsequent episodes... Just as the atmosphere grew heavy, a sudden commotion was heard outside the camp. Everyone was alert, their eyes fixed on the door. They saw a group of well-equipped figures slowly approaching from the darkness, each of them exuding an inviolable majesty.

"Are they...?" a young soldier muttered quietly, his eyes gleaming with a mixture of nervousness and curiosity. The veteran soldier beside him immediately grasped his shoulder and said, "Don't worry, just observe the situation first."

Under the gaze of the crowd, the newcomers finally stepped into the center of the aperture. The leader removed the hood from his cloak, revealing a slightly weathered yet still heroic face. "Dear heroes," he began, "please allow me to introduce myself. My name is Yun Feiyang, and I'm a traveler. We've come here to understand the recent unrest on this continent."

Hearing this, Li Ming couldn't help but take a few steps forward: "How did you know there was a battle here? And regarding the unusual movement you mentioned, what does it mean...?"

Yun Feiyang smiled faintly. "Good question, young man. To tell you the truth, ever since that strange red glow appeared in the sky, there has been unrest everywhere. We've learned through some special means that a fierce battle took place here, and we speculate that we may find the key to solving our current predicament."

At this time, the little girl who had been standing nearby and had been silent interrupted, "Could the special method you mentioned be related to that legendary holy object?"

This question clearly struck a chord with Yun Feiyang. He paused for a moment before answering, "There is indeed a connection, but we tend to believe that cooperation between people can play a greater role."

A murmur rose among the crowd. "It seems this important figure is no pushover," a middle-aged warrior, seemingly experienced, commented softly. "But since they've taken the initiative to show goodwill, there's no need to be overly vigilant."

"But... can we really trust them with this?" Another young man seemed particularly cautious. "After all, we just won peace, and it wasn't easy!"
