The sun shines down, casting a warm glow on the green grass. Ling'er runs happily on the grass, and her silver bell-like laughter echoes in the valley, adding a touch of vitality to this peaceful scene.

"Ling'er, run slower, be careful not to fall!" Chu Mengmeng looked at her daughter's lively figure with a doting smile on her face.

"It's okay, Mengmeng, let her play." Xiao Yichen sat aside, looking at his daughter tenderly, "It's very safe here."

Suddenly, Ling'er seemed to have discovered something. She stopped and pointed to a forest in the distance, calling out in a baby voice, "Daddy, Mommy, over there!"

Chu Mengmeng and Xiao Yichen looked in the direction of Ling'er's finger, and saw a huge building looming in the sun deep in the dense woods, flashing a cold metallic luster.

"What is that?" Chu Mengmeng felt a little confused. They had been to this area many times and had never seen such a building.

"Let's go and take a look." Xiao Yichen frowned slightly, feeling a little uneasy in his heart.

They led Ling'er and walked cautiously towards the woods. As they got closer, the building gradually became clearer in front of them. It was a building full of futuristic technology. The huge metal exterior was covered with all kinds of strange symbols and patterns, exuding a cold and mysterious atmosphere.

"Why is there such a building here?" Chu Mengmeng became even more confused.

Xiao Yichen did not answer. He signaled Chu Mengmeng and Ling'er to hide at the edge of the woods, while he sneaked into the base quietly.

The inside of the base was even larger than it looked from the outside, with all kinds of complex instruments and equipment flashing disturbing lights. Xiao Yichen carefully avoided the patrolling guards and finally found some information about this base and this mysterious organization.

It turns out that this organization calls itself "New Dawn". They believe that human society has become corrupt and only a new world order can save humanity. What they are researching is a new technology that can control human thoughts. They want to use this technology to control everyone and build an "ideal society" controlled by them.

Xiao Yichen's heart trembled. He knew what this meant. If they really succeeded in developing this technology, the consequences would be disastrous. He had to inform Chu Mengmeng as soon as possible, leave here, and pass on this news.

However, just as he was about to leave, a cold voice suddenly sounded behind him: "It seems that you have discovered our secret."

Xiao Yichen turned around abruptly and saw a man in a black robe with his face hidden under a hood standing behind him, his tone full of chillness.

"Who are you?" Xiao Yichen asked vigilantly.

"You can call me 'Prophet'." The man in black said arrogantly, "We have been observing you for a long time, Xiao Yichen. You are a very capable person. I admire you very much."

"What do you want to do?" Xiao Yichen clenched his fists. He knew that a fierce battle was inevitable.

"Join us, Xiao Yichen," the prophet stretched out his hand, with a hint of temptation in his tone, "Creating a new world with us."

"You're dreaming!" Xiao Yichen flatly refused, "What you're doing is destroying humanity. I will never allow your conspiracy to succeed!"

A cold light flashed in the prophet's eyes. He slowly put down his hand and said in a cold tone: "In that case, don't blame me for being rude. Come on, catch him!"

As soon as he finished speaking, countless fully armed soldiers rushed in from all directions and surrounded Xiao Yichen...

"Xiao Yichen!" In the distance, Chu Mengmeng, who witnessed all this, exclaimed and rushed out desperately... Chu Mengmeng ran out, Ling'er followed closely behind her, and the mother and daughter anxiously called out Xiao Yichen's name. However, the only responses they got were the cold faces and black muzzles of the soldiers. Chu Mengmeng was forced to retreat with Ling'er while fighting, and finally, with the help of the terrain and Ling'er's special abilities, she successfully escaped from the base of "New Dawn".

After returning home, Chu Mengmeng was still in shock, and the scene of Xiao Yichen being captured lingered in her mind. She understood that "New Dawn" was different from all the enemies she had encountered before. It was a larger, more secretive, and more dangerous organization, even more powerful than the Dark Lord.

"They want to create a new world, a world controlled by them..." Chu Mengmeng muttered to herself. From the information brought back by Xiao Yichen, she learned about the ambitions of "New Dawn", which made her shudder. She couldn't just sit there and wait for death. She had to rescue Xiao Yichen and stop the conspiracy of "New Dawn".

In order to find out the details of "New Dawn", Chu Mengmeng began to visit various places, using her own connections and resources to get information everywhere. However, the actions of "New Dawn" are extremely secretive, and their members are hidden in every corner of society, making it difficult to distinguish and even more difficult to track. Chu Mengmeng tried her best but still couldn't find any trace of them, which made her feel extremely frustrated.

"Is there no other way?" Chu Mengmeng couldn't help but feel a little desperate. At this moment, Ling'er suddenly ran over, pulled the corner of her clothes, and said in a baby voice: "Mom, I think I found something..."

Ling'er's words rekindled hope in Chu Mengmeng's heart, and she quickly asked, "What did you find?"

Ling'er took out a small badge from her pocket. There was a strange symbol engraved on it. It was the organization logo that Chu Mengmeng saw in the information of the "New Dawn" base.

"I saw this on an uncle's clothes when I was playing." Ling'er pointed at the badge and said, "This uncle looks fierce, and he seems to be saying something terrible to others..."

Chu Mengmeng's heart moved, and she realized that this might be the key clue to finding "New Dawn". She quickly asked: "Do you remember what that uncle looks like? Where did he go?"

Ling'er tried hard to recall, pointing to a forest in the distance and said, "I remember he went that way..."

Chu Mengmeng's heart tightened as she realized that was the direction of the "New Dawn" base. Could it be that Ling'er accidentally discovered the traces of the "New Dawn" members?

"Ling'er, stay home and don't go anywhere. Mom will be back soon." Chu Mengmeng gave Ling'er some instructions and hurriedly ran towards the woods, not noticing the sly light that flashed in Ling'er's eyes...

"Mom, wait for me..." Ling'er quietly followed Chu Mengmeng, but she didn't realize that she had been stared at by a pair of eyes... Chu Mengmeng ran all the way to the depths of the woods, completely unaware that Ling'er was quietly following her. Although Ling'er was young, she was very smart. She deliberately kept a distance from Chu Mengmeng and cleverly used trees and bushes as cover to avoid being discovered.

Ling'er followed the suspicious man to a hidden cave. The cave entrance was guarded by someone and was heavily guarded. Ling'er did not dare to approach rashly and could only hide in the dark and observe.

"Are you sure that girl didn't follow us?" one of them asked in a low voice.

"Don't worry, there's no way that little girl could get rid of me?" another person said with disdain.

Ling'er was startled. It seemed that these people were indeed coming for her and her mother. She became even more cautious and did not dare to make any noise.

"Let's go in. The leader is still waiting for our report." After the two men said this, they turned and entered the cave. The heavy stone door slowly closed, as if a giant beast closed its bloody mouth.

Ling'er wandered outside the cave for a long time, but could not find a chance to go in. She was extremely anxious and decided to go back and tell her mother first. However, just as she turned around to leave, a cold voice suddenly came from behind her: "Little girl, are you looking for this?"

Ling'er turned around suddenly and saw that the man from before had appeared behind her without her noticing, holding the badge with strange symbols in his hand. Ling'er was horrified and turned around to run away, but was grabbed by the man.

"Want to run? Too late!" The man sneered and dragged Ling'er into the cave.

……

"Ling'er! Ling'er!" Chu Mengmeng searched the entire forest but could not find any trace of Ling'er. She became more and more uneasy. At this moment, she suddenly saw a small badge on the ground, which was the one Ling'er had shown her before.

"Oh no! Ling'er is in danger!" Chu Mengmeng realized that the situation was not good and hurried back home, only to find Xiao Yichen was already waiting there.

"Mengmeng, you're finally back! Ling'er she..." Xiao Yichen was interrupted by Chu Mengmeng's anxious expression before he could finish his words.

"Ling'er was captured by them! I found this..." Chu Mengmeng handed the badge in her hand to Xiao Yichen.

Xiao Yichen took the badge and his expression suddenly became serious. "This is the symbol of 'New Dawn'! It seems they have set their sights on us."

"What should we do now? Ling'er is still so young, if she falls into their hands..." Chu Mengmeng was extremely anxious and her tears couldn't stop flowing.

"Don't worry, we will definitely rescue Ling'er." Xiao Yichen hugged Chu Mengmeng in his arms and comforted her softly, "I have found out that the headquarters of 'New Dawn' is nearby. Let's go and rescue Ling'er now!"

The two agreed on a plan, took their weapons, and headed straight for the "New Dawn" headquarters. They fought their way through the thorns and finally reached the depths of the headquarters. However, just as they were about to break in, a strange figure suddenly appeared in front of them.

"You don't have to go in and die. Ling'er..." the figure said slowly in a low voice, "She is safe now..."

In the dim forest, Xiao Yichen and Chu Mengmeng held their breath and held their weapons tighter. They stared at the mysterious man who appeared out of nowhere in front of them with vigilance, their hearts full of questions.

This man is tall, but his face is hidden under a wide cloak, so his features cannot be seen clearly. Only his deep eyes are shining with an unfathomable light.

"Who are you? Why do you know about Ling'er?" Chu Mengmeng asked anxiously, with a tremor in her voice. She was now concerned about her daughter's safety and would not let go of any glimmer of hope.

The mysterious man was silent for a moment, then spoke slowly in a low and hoarse voice, "I know you are looking for a girl, and I also know what kind of enemy you are about to face."

"Do you know 'New Dawn'?" Xiao Yichen stared at the mysterious man with sharp eyes, trying to find flaws in his tone.

"'New Dawn'?" The mysterious man smiled contemptuously, "They are just a bunch of clowns. The real threat is far more terrifying than them."

"Who are you? What is your purpose?" Xiao Yichen's heart was filled with alarm. His intuition told him that the person in front of him was no simple matter.

"I'm here to help you." The mysterious man said calmly, but with unquestionable determination, "I can tell you everything about 'New Dawn', and I can help you rescue the girl. But the premise is that you have to trust me."

Chu Mengmeng and Xiao Yichen exchanged glances, their hearts full of hesitation. They were eager to rescue Ling'er, but the man in front of them had unknown origins and his words were hard to tell whether they were true or false, making it difficult for them to believe him easily.

"Why should we believe you?" Xiao Yichen asked in a deep voice.

The mysterious man did not answer, but took out a jade pendant from his bosom and handed it to them. The jade pendant was crystal clear, with a lifelike phoenix pattern carved on it. It was the one Ling'er had been wearing.

"This jade pendant..." Chu Mengmeng recognized it at the first sight. It was the gift she gave to Ling'er personally, so there was no way she could be wrong.

"I can tell you that Ling'er is safe now, but time is running out. You must make a decision as soon as possible." The mysterious man took back the jade pendant, with a hint of anxiety in his tone. "'New Dawn' is just the tip of the iceberg. A greater crisis is approaching. We have no time to waste."

Xiao Yichen and Chu Mengmeng looked at each other again, and they saw the same determination in each other's eyes. The person in front of them might be the only one who could help them, so they had to take a gamble.

"We..." Chu Mengmeng took a deep breath and was about to speak, but was interrupted by a mysterious man.

"Follow me." He ignored their hesitation and turned to walk deeper into the forest, leaving only one sentence echoing in the air, "Some things can only be believed by seeing them."
