Me? I was transported into a book? And I became a vicious villain?

In the direction of the ancient ruins, the golden light lingered for a long time, like a bright star, illuminating the night sky and the hope in people's hearts. Chu Mengmeng and Xiao Yichen knew that the guardian had not completely disappeared, and he placed his last hope in this golden light.

As night falls, the moonlight pours down on the devastated city. Chu Mengmeng sits alone on the broken roof, letting the night wind blow her long hair. Her eyes fall on the golden light in the distance, and she feels mixed emotions. Can the city guardians learn from this failure and find a chance to fight back? Can they really defeat the dark lord and protect the city?

"What are you thinking about?" A gentle voice sounded behind her.

Chu Mengmeng turned around and saw Xiao Yichen standing behind her. The moonlight outlined his handsome figure, and his eyes were full of worry and tenderness.

"Nothing, just thinking about something." Chu Mengmeng forced a smile.

Xiao Yichen walked over to sit beside her and gently held her hand. "I know you are blaming yourself, but this is not your fault. We are all guardians of the city, and we all have the responsibility to protect this city and the people we love."

Chu Mengmeng lowered her head, tears welling up in her eyes. She had been suppressing her emotions these days, but now in front of Xiao Yichen, she could no longer pretend to be strong.

"I just... I just feel so useless. I watched the city being destroyed but was powerless to do anything." Chu Mengmeng said while choking.

Xiao Yichen gently held her in his arms, "Silly girl, this is not your fault. You have done a good job. You have given so much for this city, and everyone can see it."

His embrace was warm and powerful, as if it could dispel all the fear and anxiety in her heart. Chu Mengmeng buried her head in his chest and let her tears flow freely.

"Mengmeng, do you know? From the first time I saw you, I was deeply attracted to you. Your kindness, bravery, and your occasional confusion all fascinate me. These days, every time I see you running around the city, I feel distressed. I want to take on everything for you so that you can live a worry-free life forever." Xiao Yichen's voice was low and gentle, as if he was telling an ancient oath.

Chu Mengmeng raised her head and looked at him with tearful eyes. Under the moonlight, his eyes were as clear as water, reflecting her figure.

"Yi Chen..."

"Mengmeng, promise me that no matter what happens, we will face it together, okay?" Xiao Yichen looked at her affectionately, his eyes firm and persistent.

Chu Mengmeng nodded gently, and tears welled up in her eyes again. This time, they were tears of happiness.

At this moment, a golden light descended from the sky and landed in front of them...

Xiao Yichen walked over to sit beside her and gently held her hand. "I know you are blaming yourself, but this is not your fault. We are all guardians of the city. We all have the responsibility to protect this city and the people we love."

Xiao Yichen gently held her in his arms, "Silly girl, this is not your fault. You have done a good job. You have given so much for this city, and everyone can see it."

At this moment, the golden light suddenly intensified and rushed towards them like a meteor! Chu Mengmeng and Xiao Yichen quickly stood up and watched the sudden change vigilantly. The golden light finally stopped not far in front of them. The light dissipated, and a warrior wearing golden armor and holding a lightsaber appeared in front of them.

"You are..." Xiao Yichen asked cautiously.

"I am the messenger of light, the last hope of the guardian." The warrior spoke in a loud and majestic voice, "Darkness is about to come again. I am here on the orders of the guardian to find the lost artifacts. Only by gathering the artifacts can we completely destroy the dark lord and restore peace to the city."

"Divine weapon?" Chu Mengmeng's heart moved, "Do you know where the divine weapon is?"

The Lightbringer nodded, "I know some clues, but I need your help to find them."

Xiao Yichen clenched the sword in his hand, "We are willing to do our best."

Chu Mengmeng also said firmly: "For this city, for everyone, we will definitely find the artifact!"

So, the three of them embarked on a journey to find the artifact. According to the clues provided by the messenger of light, they traveled through every corner of the city and experienced tests again and again. Chu Mengmeng's wit and Xiao Yichen's bravery complemented each other in one adventure after another, and their tacit understanding and trust became deeper with the passage of time.

Finally, on a thunderous night, they followed the last clue and came to a desolate suburb, where they found an ancient ruin that exuded a mysterious and powerful aura...

The ancient ruins were half-hidden in the overgrown suburbs, and after years of erosion by wind and rain, they exuded a vicissitudes and mysterious atmosphere. Thunder roared, and lightning streaked across the night sky, illuminating the ruins in a flickering manner, adding a bit of weirdness.

Chu Mengmeng, Xiao Yichen and the Messenger of Light stepped into the ruins cautiously. A chill hit them in the face, making them shiver. Inside the ruins, the walls were covered with ancient runes, emitting a faint light, illuminating the deep passage. The air was filled with a smell of decay, as if a secret that had been sleeping for a thousand years was about to be awakened.

"Be careful, everything here is weird." The messenger of light warned in a low voice, and the light of the lightsaber in his hand became more dazzling, dispelling the darkness around him.

They walked along the passage, and the rune patterns on the wall kept changing, as if telling a forgotten history. Suddenly, the passage ahead was blocked by a stone door, on which were carved ferocious beasts, as if they would come alive at any time and devour the intruders.

"It seems that we have found it." The Messenger of Light pointed to a groove on the stone door. "This should be the place where the artifact is placed, but we need to find a way to open it."

Chu Mengmeng looked around and her eyes fell on a mural on the wall. The content of the mural was already blurred, and only a few figures could be vaguely identified, as if they were performing some kind of ritual.

"Perhaps we can find clues from this mural." Chu Mengmeng said, pointing at the mural.

The three carefully observed the mural, trying to find the key to open the stone door. At this moment, the stone door suddenly shook violently, stone chips flew, and a huge claw broke out of the door and went straight for Chu Mengmeng!

"Be careful!" Xiao Yichen reacted quickly, pulled Chu Mengmeng away, and swung the sword in his hand to block the attack of the sharp claws.

A gigantic gargoyle burst out of the door, emitting a terrifying chill, its scarlet eyes staring at them like a messenger from hell.

"It's the Guardian!" The Messenger of Light said in a deep voice, "It seems that if we want to get the artifact, we must defeat it first!"

A fierce battle was about to break out. The Lightbringer held a lightsaber and confronted the gargoyle head-on. The sword flashed, and every collision burst into dazzling light. Xiao Yichen used his body skills to move around the gargoyle, looking for its flaws and waiting for an opportunity to attack.

Although Chu Mengmeng did not have strong fighting power, she did not retreat. She carefully observed the movements of the gargoyle, looking for its weakness. Finally, she found that there was a rune behind the gargoyle that was dimming, which seemed to be its source of energy.

"Yi Chen, attack the runes behind it!" Chu Mengmeng shouted loudly.

Xiao Yichen understood what he meant and took advantage of the gap between the gargoyle's attacks. He flashed and appeared behind it, stabbing his sword straight to where the rune was.

"Roar!"

The gargoyle let out a roar, its body shook violently, and finally fell to the ground with a bang, turning into a pile of rubble.

"We succeeded!" Chu Mengmeng said happily.

The messenger of light walked to the stone door and put his hand into the groove. A strong force came from the stone door. The stone door slowly opened, revealing an ancient stone box. In the stone box lay a gem emitting dazzling light.

"Is this the divine weapon?" Chu Mengmeng asked.

However, before the Messenger of Light could answer, the ruins suddenly shook violently, and rocks above his head kept falling, as if the entire ruins were about to collapse.

"Oh no, this place is going to collapse!" Xiao Yichen's face changed, "We have to leave here quickly!"

The three of them didn't dare to stay and turned around to run out of the ruins. Just as they were about to escape the ruins, Chu Mengmeng suddenly felt a powerful force enveloping them, and her eyes went dark and she lost consciousness...

When Chu Mengmeng woke up again, she found herself in a strange place, and Xiao Yichen and the Messenger of Light were nowhere to be found...
