Lu Feng’s heart pounded like a drum, his palms slick with sweat.
The faint footsteps echoed through the night—light as a cat’s tread, yet heavy with danger. His eyes darted across the shadowy thickets and trembling treetops, every rustle now suspicious.

“Stay still. Something’s off,” Lu Feng whispered urgently to Ai Liya, who trembled in his arms. She closed her eyes, channeling what little divine energy remained, ready to fight.

The warriors around them tensed, weapons drawn. The air thickened with anticipation.

Tak, his sword gripped like an extension of his arm, scanned the darkness with hawk-like intensity. Raphael, already mapping escape routes in his mind, muttered strategies under his breath.

*Rustle… rustle…*
The noise drew closer, as though unseen eyes lurked in the void.
122Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡv1bedZu3Ba
Lu Feng held his breath, straining to parse every sound. His pulse merged with the wind into a dissonant symphony.
122Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡGKiAVWClbf
Then—figures emerged.
122Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ2YMmCJXQI7
A towering man led the group, his tattered battle robes failing to hide muscles forged in war. His gaze, unyielding as stone, locked onto Lu Feng. Behind him stood a slender youth, a staff glinting in his hand, magic simmering at its tip.
122Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡwWMi99Fn4O
“Who are you?” Lu Feng demanded, voice low but firm.
122Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡW7GO4HCslH
“Tak. A wanderer,” the man replied, steady as bedrock. He nodded to the youth. “Raphael. A strategist.”
122Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡblvuw2CNFm
Lu Feng’s wariness lingered—too many had betrayed him under sweet words. Yet these two bore no hostility, only exhaustion… and hunger.
122Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡIJCOLYrM21
“A… guide sent us,” Raphael said carefully. “We seek to join you. To fight the darkness.”
122Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ1qMxTKyDIu
Lu Feng’s resolve flickered. The @moss simulator had aided him thus far, but the enemies grew stronger. Allies like these—seasoned, sharp—might tip the scales.
122Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡCNHFFkO8EH
“How’d you find me?”
122Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡS8lzvSQdSl
Tak’s jaw tightened. “The Blood Fiend Sect destroyed my home. I ran… met Raphael, who’d lost just as much.”
122Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡRTYRLhd6Oc
Raphael nodded. “The guide… they knew *you* could end this.”
122Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡrIlcqmISv7
Lu Feng’s chest burned—rage, grief, resolve colliding. He exhaled slowly, then extended a hand.
122Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡh9XBsFd7ba
“Welcome to Dusk Fortress.”
122Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡbsTG8Zj9zJ
Their grips sealed the pact.
122Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡPFrfkVXQox
“A spar,” Lu Feng提议, eyes glinting. “To see what you’re made of.”
122Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQGhgEgZNQY
Tak grinned, fire igniting in his stare. “Try to keep up.”
122Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡSarTYZz434
Raphael twirled his staff. “You’ll need more than brute strength.”

The clash erupted. Tak’s sword thundered, each strike earthquaking the field. Raphael wove spells like a composer, redirecting blows with calculated precision. Lu Feng commanded with tactical brilliance, while Ai Liya’s moonlight magic danced between shadows.

By dusk, their movements harmonized—trust forged in sweat and steel.

Around the campfire, laughter briefly drowned the night. But as embers dimmed, the Shadowmoon Cat at Lu Feng’s feet suddenly bristled, fur standing on end. A guttural growl ripped from its throat, green eyes blazing toward the woods.
122Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡqGUviJWcDW
Silence fell.
122Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡnvq1uSW05d
Lu Feng rose slowly, fingers curling around his sword. “Seems dinner’s delivered itself,” he murmured, a feral grin spreading.

The darkness beyond the firelight *shifted*.
