"Do you want to escape? There is no door for you to leave." Alison's voice echoed in the forest like a ghost, with ruthless mockery.

"You have no idea how powerful I am!" Wu counterattacked angrily, and the black magical energy gathered in his hands, forming a huge black beam of light, which shot towards Alison.

"Ridiculous." Alison sneered, and the magic in her hand immediately transformed into a light shield, instantly blocking Wu's attack. The black beam exploded on the light shield, making a deafening roar that shook the entire forest.

"Are you still struggling?" Alison slowly walked towards Wu, the smile on her face becoming increasingly cruel, "I have already taken control of time and space. You have no chance of winning."

Wu's heart was filled with despair. He knew that he had been forced into a desperate situation. Although his necromancy magic was powerful, it seemed so fragile in front of Alison. He gritted his teeth and secretly planned a final counterattack.

"I will not give up!" Wu roared, raising his hands suddenly. The black magic energy gathered into a huge vortex behind him, as if it was going to swallow up the entire forest. "I will summon an endless army of undead and let you see true despair!"

"Do you really think you can control the undead?" Alison was not afraid at all. The magic light in her hand became brighter and brighter. "I will make you feel the passage of time and the constraints of space!"

Just as Wu's magic was about to be completed, Alison suddenly cast a time-stopping magic, and the time around him froze again. Wu's movements were frozen in that moment, and fear and despair intertwined on his face.

"This is your end." Alison's voice was cold, and the magic light in her hand became stronger under her control. She gathered the power of magic in her palm, ready to deliver a fatal blow.

"No!" Wu shouted in his heart, but his voice was drowned out by the constraints of time. He felt a sense of powerlessness, as if his whole body was being ruthlessly torn apart.

"Time stops, space shifts, fate intersects." Alison chanted in a low voice, and the magic in her hand streaked across the night sky like a meteor, piercing straight into Wu's heart.

"Ah!" Wu let out a desperate scream, his entire body was swallowed by the purple light and instantly turned into nothingness.

Merlin's lips curled into a smug smile as he thought to himself: These tiny chess pieces can help me conquer an entire kingdom.

"Haha, what stupid guys! How dare you go against me!" Merlin muttered to himself, his voice echoing in the empty dungeon.

At this moment, there was a tearing sound in the air, and the two chess pieces of necromancy collapsed and vanished in an instant. Merlin's face suddenly changed, and a trace of panic flashed in his eyes. He turned around and saw Aether and Alvin walking towards him with a determined look on their faces.

"Merlin, your dark magic will never be able to defeat light!" Esther's voice was like thunder, resounding throughout the dungeon.

"Hmph, Esther, do you think you can stop me?" Merlin smiled coldly, and the dark magic in his hand condensed again, and the air around him seemed to become heavy.

Alvin stood beside Esther, the light of natural magic in his hand flickering, "Merlin, your necromancy only relies on fear and despair. The real power comes from nature and life!"

Merlin's mouth curled up into a cold smile, and then he waved his hand, and the dark magic instantly attacked the two of them. There was a sense of oppression in the air, and Esther and Alvin couldn't help but feel nervous.

"Get ready!" Esther shouted, gathering strong light in his hands, ready to cast the sky drop spell.

"I'll cover you!" Alvin quickly used natural magic to try to block Merlin's attack. A green light bloomed from his palms, forming a protective barrier to block Merlin's dark magic.

"Unfortunately, it's all in vain!" Merlin smiled coldly and clasped his hands together. The power of darkness gathered in his hands more and more strongly.

"Aithu, hurry!" Alvin's voice was filled with urgency. Although he had tried his best to resist, Merlin's dark magic surged like a tide.

"Super God's Skyfall, come on!" A fearless courage ignited in Aether's heart, and he raised his hands high. The light instantly illuminated the entire dungeon. At that moment, it seemed as if the whole world was trembling at his call.

"What!" Merlin's face suddenly turned pale. He felt an irresistible force approaching.

"Go, power of light!" Esther roared, and a strong light rushed towards Merlin like lightning. The dark magic was torn apart in an instant and turned into invisible smoke.

"Ah!" Merlin stepped back in fear, trying to avoid the light, but it was too late. His dark magic was as fragile as paper in front of the light and collapsed in an instant.

"Alvin, seize the opportunity!" Aether shouted, feeling excited. He knew that only one strike could completely defeat Merlin.

"Power of nature, turn into wind!" Alvin shouted loudly, and the natural magic in his hand turned into a gust of wind, rushing straight towards Merlin. The gust of wind rolled up the dust, as if it was going to swallow Merlin completely.

Merlin struggled desperately, trying to resist with the power of darkness, but it was too late. His body was swept up by the strong wind and he was knocked to the ground in an instant, his face distorted and full of horror.

"I... can't possibly lose to you!" Merlin gritted his teeth and tried desperately to stand up, but his body seemed to be suppressed by an invisible force and he couldn't move.

"This is what happens to you!" Esther's voice sounded like a judgment, with ruthless determination.

"You will regret this!" Merlin roared in despair, his voice full of resentment.

"No, Merlin. Your darkness will eventually be dispelled by light." Alvin said coldly, with a firm belief flashing in his eyes.

With the joint attack of Esther and Alvin, Merlin's dark magic completely collapsed, and the air around them returned to tranquility. The two smiled at each other, their hearts filled with the joy of victory.

"We succeeded!" Esther said excitedly, clenching his fists, the pressure in his heart finally released.

"Yes, but we can't let our guard down. Merlin may come back again." Alvin warned, with vigilance in his eyes.

At this moment, Merlin's voice sounded again, with reluctance and anger: "Do you think this is the end? The darkness will never disappear!"

"Merlin, your darkness is only temporary!" Esther's eyes were sharp and his voice was powerful, revealing an unshakable firm belief. There was a gleam in his eyes, as if he saw the hope and beauty of the future. This firm response made Merlin feel a strong power and filled him with confidence in his future.

Esther knows that it is inevitable to encounter setbacks and difficulties in life, but as long as you maintain a positive attitude and move forward courageously, you will be able to overcome everything. He believes that no matter how much darkness and obstacles there are ahead, they are only temporary, and light will always come. Therefore, he encourages Merlin to face challenges bravely, not to be intimidated by the difficulties in front of him, but to firmly believe in his own abilities and potential, and continue to work hard to pursue his dreams.

Esther's words were like a spring breeze, warm and inspiring. His sincerity and enthusiasm ignited the fire deep in Merlin's heart, allowing him to regain his courage and motivation. At this moment, Merlin felt the power of friendship and understood how important the support of friends is to a person. He decided not to be depressed anymore, but to take positive actions and meet the challenges of the future together with Esther.

With Esther's encouragement, Merlin began to re-examine his life and look for solutions to his problems. He found that there were many beautiful things around him waiting for him to discover and cherish. So he put aside his past troubles, actively devoted himself to work and study, and constantly improved his abilities and qualities. At the same time, he also learned to enjoy the little pleasures in life and spend happy time with his family and friends.

As time went by, Merlin gradually walked out of the shadow of darkness and welcomed a new dawn. He was grateful for the support and encouragement given by Esther, and also deeply realized the preciousness of friendship. From then on, they became good friends who could talk about anything. They went through many ups and downs together and witnessed each other's growth and progress. In this process, Merlin also understood a truth: as long as you have faith and move forward courageously, you can overcome any difficulties and move towards the other side of success.

"I will come back with more powerful power!" Merlin's voice gradually faded away, and then his figure disappeared in the darkness.

"We must find his lair as soon as possible and eliminate him completely." Alvin said, the smile on his face gradually faded, replaced by a hint of nervousness.

"Yes, the dark forces will not give up easily." Esther nodded, secretly alert in his heart.

Morian and Alvin met in a ruin, surrounded by buildings destroyed by war. Only a few broken walls stood alone, as if telling the story of past glory and present desolation.

"Alvin," Morian said in a low and hoarse voice, as if he was still upset about his previous failure, "I really didn't expect Aether to be so powerful. He...he completely crushed us."

Alvin stood aside, frowning and sighing inwardly. He knew that Morian had always been obsessed with the past, but the current situation did not allow him to indulge in the shadow of the past. "Morian, let it go. You can't be obsessed with the failure of the past. Aether's strength is a reality that we cannot ignore."

"Let it go?" Morian sneered, a trace of anger flashing in his eyes, "How can you ask me to let it go? We have been fighting for this goal for so long, I am not willing to give up just like that!"

Alvin took a deep breath, trying to calm his anxiety. He knew that Morian's stubbornness could lead to a greater tragedy. "You have to understand that admitting the strength of your opponent is not a failure, but wisdom. We need to re-examine our plan instead of just charging in."

"Wisdom?" Morian's voice was high and excited. "I think you are making excuses for yourself. We once had a chance, but now everything has been ruined by Aether. Do you give up so easily?"

"I'm not giving up, I'm choosing to survive!" Alvin's tone became firm, with a hint of anger in his eyes, "If you continue like this, it will only hurt all of us in the end. We must find a new way out instead of complaining about ourselves here!"

Morian turned around angrily, his back to Alvin, with mixed emotions surging in his heart. He clenched his fists, his nails digging deep into his palms, as if he was using this method to suppress the pain and unwillingness in his heart. Alvin's voice echoed in his ears, like a sharp blade, cutting the fragile string in his heart.

"You don't understand me at all!" Morian suddenly turned around, his eyes burning with anger, "I have lost too much, my friends, my home, and my ideals! How can I let go? What do you think you are talking about?"

"I know you've lost a lot." Alvin's tone softened, but still firm, "But you can't let the shadow of the past obscure the light of the future. Aether's strength doesn't mean we have no chance. We can start over, find new allies, and make new plans."

"A new plan?" Morian smiled coldly, his eyes full of mockery. "What kind of allies do you think we can find? Those former companions are either dead or have been recruited by Ayser. We are now isolated and helpless, facing a desperate situation with powerful enemies!"

"We still have each other." Alvin's voice was firm and warm. "As long as we stick together, we can find a way out. You can't give up hope, Morian!"

"Hope?" Morian's voice was filled with despair. "What's the use of hope? It can't make up for what I've lost, nor can it save the pain in my heart."
