Aldridge and Su Xiao gratefully accepted the princess's appointment, and they decided to continue to keep the kingdom safe. In the days that followed, they patrolled with the soldiers of the kingdom, protecting the prosperity and tranquility of the country.

However, just as they began to enjoy peace, a sudden disaster befell the kingdom. A group of vicious pirates raided the kingdom's port cities, plundered the riches and mutilated innocent people. The people of the kingdom were in a state of panic and despair.

When Aldridge and Su Xiao heard the news, they immediately decided to lead the soldiers of the kingdom to the port city and engage in a fierce battle with the pirates. They knew that only by defeating these vicious pirates could they restore peace to the kingdom and the confidence of the people.

When Aldridge and Su Xiao led the soldiers to the port city, what they saw made their hearts ache. The streets of the city are full of broken buildings and suffering people. The pirates plundered wantonly, ignoring the existence of life, and brought great destruction and damage to the city.

Aldridge and Su Xiao immediately organized the soldiers to launch a counterattack. They took advantage of the city's topography to set traps and ambushes to engage in a fierce battle with the pirates. The soldiers fought bravely, braved the hardships and dangers, and fought to the death against the pirates. Aldridge and Su Xiao took the lead, using their strength and wisdom to lead the soldiers to repel the pirates' attacks again and again.

During the battle, Aldridge and Su Xiao discovered that the pirates were not just simple bandits, they were well-organized, tactically flexible, and seemed to have higher backing. They began to wonder if there was something bigger behind these pirates.

As the battle progressed, Aldridge and Su Xiao gradually discovered some clues. They discovered that the pirates' equipment and weapons were not common pirates, but highly sophisticated military equipment. This reinforces their belief that there must be a greater support behind these pirates.

In order to uncover the truth, Aldridge and Su Xiao decide to investigate further. They infiltrate the pirates' hideout and discover a vast secret organization. The group is called the "Dark Hands", and they not only control the pirates, but also manipulate the black market and criminal activities throughout the port city behind their backs.

Aldridge and Su Xiao were shocked, they didn't expect this "Dark Hand" organization to be so large and so deeply hidden. They decided to continue their in-depth investigation to uncover the true purpose of this organization and who is behind it.

Through a series of reconnaissance and infiltration operations, Aldridge and Su Xiao discover that the leader of the "Dark Hand" organization is a mysterious figure known as "Shadow". This figure is extremely secretive, no one has ever seen him for what he really is, and only a few high-ranking members have direct contact with him. They learned that the goal of the Dark Hands was to gain a huge fortune by controlling the black market and criminal activities in the port city, and to use that wealth to support their illegal activities.

However, they did not give up. They decided to take matters into their own hands and confront the Hands of Darkness head-on. They began to look for other like-minded people, hoping to form a resistance group and wage a fierce fight against the "Dark Hand" group.

After a period of hard work, Aldridge and Su Xiao succeeded in forming a rebellion group composed of righteous people. Through secret communication channels, they get in touch with other people oppressed by the "Dark Hand" organization, encouraging them to join the resistance and fight against this evil organization.

In a decisive battle, the Resistance finally succeeded in defeating a significant force of the "Hands of Darkness". This victory strengthened Aldridge and Su Xiao's belief that as long as they continued to work hard, they could finally destroy this evil organization.

Aldridge and Su Xiao decided to cooperate with the kingdom's intelligence services to convey this information to the king. Shocked to hear the news, the king decided to go to the port city himself to fight against the "Dark Hand" with Aldridge and Su Xiao.

The arrival of the king caused the entire port city to boil, and the people saw that the king himself led the soldiers into battle against pirates and the "dark hand", and the people were confident to see that the king himself led the soldiers into battle. Aldridge and Su Xiao worked with the king to devise a series of strategies, and they decided to weaken the power of the "Dark Hand" before starting a final battle with the pirates.

Aldridge and Su Xiao discussed with the king and decided to weaken the power of the "Dark Hand" first. They learn that the Hands of Darkness have multiple secret bases around the port city, with a large number of weapons and personnel in their possession. In order to destroy these bases, they decided to take covert action and destroy the logistics supply lines of the "Dark Hand" first.

Aldridge and Su Xiao led an elite force sent by the king to infiltrate the first secret base. Under the cover of night, they managed to destroy the arsenal and ammunition reserves in the base. This action not only weakened the "Dark Hand", but also gave the king and their coalition more confidence.

Next, they continued to operate against other bases. Every action requires careful planning and teamwork. Aldridge and Su Xiao showed their leadership and tactical wisdom in the process, and their determination and courage also infected every soldier.

After some time of hard work, they managed to destroy all the bases of the "Dark Hand". This series of actions not only weakened the power of the "Dark Hand", but also laid the foundation for the final decisive battle.

The king and their coalition army prepare for a final showdown with the pirates. They know that it will be an uphill battle, but they are determined to fight for freedom and justice.

On the eve of the decisive battle, Aldridge and Su Xiao led the soldiers in the final mobilization. They boost morale and emphasize the importance of unity and faith. The soldiers expressed their willingness to fight for the king and their leaders.

The next day, the decisive battle began. The king himself led the soldiers into battle and fought fiercely against the pirates. Aldridge and Su Xiao led another force to outflank the enemy.

The battle is extremely fierce, and the two sides come and go, and you live and die. The king and his allies showed great courage and fighting power, and they braved the odds and dangers to kill the enemy. Aldridge and Su Xiao also showed their tactical wisdom and leadership skills, directing the soldiers to launch an orderly attack.

After a period of fighting, Aldridge, Su Xiao and others successfully destroyed the base of the "Dark Hand" and rescued the people controlled by them. This action dealt a huge blow to the "Dark Hands", and their power began to crumble.

After several days of fierce fighting, Aldridge and Su Xiao finally succeeded in driving the pirates out of the port city. The people of the city saw their heroic performance and expressed their gratitude and admiration to them. Aldridge and Su Xiao knew that this was only a temporary victory, and the pirates might come back again.

In order to protect the safety of the kingdom, Aldridge and Su Xiao decided to pursue the pirates and completely eliminate their forces. They led the soldiers on a difficult pursuit. They traversed treacherous seas and trekked on inhospitable islands, fighting pirates time after time.

After months of pursuit, Aldridge and Su Xiao finally found the pirates' hiding place. It's a secret base hidden in a dense jungle, surrounded by tall peaks and steep cliffs. Aldridge and Su Xiao led the soldiers to quietly approach the base, and they decided to launch a surprise attack at night.

In the dark, Aldridge and Su Xiao led the soldiers into the base quietly. They cautiously bypassed the guarded posts, dodging the patrolling pirates. Eventually, they made their way to the core of the base, where the pirate leader lived.

Aldridge and Su Xiao decided to split up, hoping to attack the pirate leader at the same time, leaving them defenseless. Aldridge led some of the soldiers to quietly go around to the rear of the residence, while Su Xiao led the other part of the soldiers to rush directly to the gate of the residence.

When night fell, Aldridge and Su Xiao attacked at the same time. Aldridge's soldiers suddenly rushed in from the rear of the residence, knocking the guards to the ground. At the same time, Su Xiao's soldiers broke down the door and engaged in a fierce battle with the pirate leader.

The battle was fierce, and the pirates fought hard, but they could not resist the unity and courage of Aldridge and Su Xiao. In the end, the pirate leader was defeated by Aldridge and Su Xiao at the same time, and their forces were completely wiped out.

In the course of their pursuit, Aldridge and Su Xiao discover that these pirates are not isolated individuals, and that they have a larger organization behind them. This group lives on plunder and exploitation, and they use the power of pirates to expand their sphere of influence. Aldridge and Su Xiao decided to lift the veil on this organization and eradicate them completely.

The princess decided to personally lead Aldridge and Su Xiao to the port city for a decisive battle with the pirates. With the soldiers of the kingdom and the brave populace, they rushed to the pirates' lair.

The battle began, and a fierce battle ensued between the two sides. Aldridge and Su Xiao showed their fighting skills and courage as they fought to the death against the pirates. The princess leads the soldiers in a fierce duel with the leader of the pirates.

After a fierce battle, the people of the kingdom finally defeated the pirates. They captured all the pirates and handed them over to a righteous court. The port city has regained its former prosperity and the people have once again felt an atmosphere of peace.

The princess expressed her heartfelt gratitude to Aldridge and Su Xiao, and she decided to promote them to the rank of generals of the kingdom, responsible for keeping the entire kingdom safe. Aldridge and Su Xiao accepted the appointment, and they vowed to do everything in their power to protect the prosperity of the kingdom and the safety of its people.

In the years that followed, Aldridge and Su Xiao led the kingdom's army, patrolling the borders and guarding the country. They train with the soldiers of the kingdom to improve their fighting skills. They were also actively involved in the building of the kingdom to create better living conditions for the people.

However, just as peace and prosperity were restored to the kingdom, an external threat came upon the kingdom again. A powerful invading army crossed the border and launched an offensive against the kingdom.

Aldridge and Su Xiao immediately led their army to meet the enemy. They fought a fierce battle with their enemies, defending the dignity and territory of the kingdom with their own flesh and blood. Their courage and wisdom led to repeated setbacks for their enemies, and the morale of the kingdom grew.

However, the Flame Giant was undaunted and continued to rush towards Su Xiao. Su Xiao clenched the long sword in his hand tightly and calmly met the attack of the flame giant. He dodged the giant's blades with agility and used the subtlety of swordsmanship to try to find the giant's weakness.

Seeing this, Aldridge immediately stopped his fire attack on the giant and turned to cast a powerful wind magic. He waved the staff in his hand, and a gust of wind howled, engulfing the flame giant. The giant was restrained by the strong wind, and his movements became sluggish, giving Su Xiao more opportunities.

Su Xiao seized the opportunity, quickly rushed to the giant's side, aimed at the giant's leg, and stabbed the giant's vital point with a sword. The blade sliced through the air and stabbed directly into the giant's leg, blood gushing out. The giant let out an earth-shattering roar, but could no longer attack.

Su Xiao seized the opportunity and quickly rushed towards the Flame Giant. Using the subtlety of swordsmanship, he aimed at the giant's knee and slashed down with a slash of his sword. The sword light flickered, and the blade cut through the air, slashing directly into the giant's knee. The Flame Giant let out an earth-shattering roar, its massive body crumbling, but still not falling.

Su Xiao was not discouraged, he knew that the Flame Giant's body was extremely strong, and it was impossible to knock him down with a single attack. He quickly retreated, looking for a new fighter. Meanwhile, Aldridge continues to cast wind magic, blowing the wind towards the Flame Giant, weakening its attack and defense.

Su Xiao's eyes froze, and he suddenly thought of a way to crack the Flame Giant. He decided to use his speed and agility to constantly wander around the giant, looking for an opportunity to attack its back. He knew that the back of the Flame Giant was its weak point, and if he attacked there, he could inflict fatal damage on it.

Su Xiao quickly took action, and he nimbly shuttled around the flame giant, constantly testing the giant's reaction. Although the Flame Giant is large and powerful, its movements are relatively slow. Su Xiao took advantage of this, sometimes dodging the giant's attacks, and sometimes quickly approaching the giant's back.

In one of the giant's attacks, Su Xiao successfully dodged the giant's blade and quickly approached the giant's back. Without hesitation, he swung his sword and slashed at the giant's back, the sword light flickering, and the blade pierced into the giant's skin. The Flame Giant let out a roar of pain, and its massive body staggered.

However, the Flame Giant did not fall, it turned around angrily and launched a fierce attack on Su Xiao. Su Xiao hurriedly retreated, dodging the giant's attack while looking for a new opportunity. He knew that one more attack on the giant's back would knock him out.

Seeing this, Aldridge immediately cast an even more powerful spell. He swung the staff in his hand, and a massive blade of wind sliced through the sky, heading straight for the Flame Giant. The blade of the wind is extremely sharp, and the sound of cutting through the air makes the heart palpitate. The Flame Giant was struck by the Wind Blade and let out a loud roar, its body shaking.

Su Xiao seized the opportunity and rushed to the back of the Flame Giant again. Without hesitation, he swung his sword and slashed, his sword flashing as the blade stabbed into the giant's back. The Flame Giant let out a scream, and its massive body finally fell, reduced to a pile of ashes.

At the same time, the soldiers of the kingdom are engaged in fierce battles against the invading army. They fought bravely, defended the kingdom's territory with their lives. When Aldridge and Su Xiao saw this scene, their hearts were full of admiration and gratitude.

After a fierce battle, the kingdom's army finally managed to repel the invading army. Peace was restored to the kingdom, but the battle also made people realize that the kingdom's security was not set in stone.

In order to better protect the kingdom, Aldridge and Su Xiao decided to strengthen the training of the army and improve the fighting skills of the soldiers. They organized a series of training courses, including training in swordsmanship, magic, tactics, etc., so that the soldiers could better cope with various combat situations.

Over time, the kingdom gradually became more prosperous and powerful. The living conditions of the people have been greatly improved, and the strength of the country has also been enhanced. Aldridge and Su Xiao were very relieved that their efforts had not been in vain.

However, just as peace and prosperity were once again restored to the kingdom, an even greater threat befell the kingdom. This time, it's not just an invading army, it's the rise of a dark force.

The leader of the dark forces is a powerful dark mage with terrifying magical powers. He leads a large army and constantly invades various kingdoms, destroying all forces that stand in his way.

Once again, the kingdom's army faced a great test. Aldridge and Su Xiao decided to personally lead the army and start a decisive battle against the dark forces. They knew that this battle would decide the fate of the kingdom.

During the preparations, Aldridge and Su Xiao constantly studied the dark mage's magic, trying to find a way to deal with him. Using their wisdom and experience, they have developed a special shield magic that can effectively withstand the attacks of dark mages.

After arduous preparations, Aldridge and Su Xiao led the kingdom's army to face the dark forces. They knew the importance of this battle, not only for the fate of the kingdom, but also for the safety of the entire continent.

Once the battle began, the dark mage displayed his terrifying magical powers. His spells are like the winds of darkness, ruthlessly destroying everything. However, Aldridge and Su Xiao's shield magic played a key role, successfully fending off the dark mage's attacks.

During the battle, Aldridge and Su Xiao showed their leadership skills and combat skills. They command armies and employ flexible tactics to constantly repel the armies of the dark Ones. Their courage and wisdom inspired the soldiers and allowed them to fight until the last moment.

However, dark mages are not that easy to defeat. His magical power is getting stronger, and his army is getting bigger. Aldridge and Su Xiao realized that it would be difficult for the two of them and the army alone to defeat the dark forces.

So, they decided to look for help. They traveled to the oldest magic academy on the continent to seek guidance from the wise men there. The wise men told them that to defeat the dark mage, they needed to find an ancient magic that could weaken the dark mage's power.

Aldridge and Su Xiao embark on a journey to find this ancient magic. They traversed treacherous forests and trekked through inhospitable deserts, enduring a great deal of hardship. Eventually, they come to a mysterious cave where the secrets of ancient magic are said to be hidden.

Deep in the cave, Aldridge and Su Xiao discover an ancient magic book. The book contains a form of magic known as the "Fountain of Light". It is said that if you can find the Fountain of Light, you will be able to weaken the power of the dark mage.

They decide to follow the book's instructions and travel to a mysterious place in search of the Fountain of Light. This place is known as the "Valley of Oblivion" and it is said that only those who truly have the courage and wisdom can find its location.

Aldridge and Su Xiao embark on a journey to the Forgotten Valley. They crossed treacherous mountains, crossed rushing rivers, and trudged across endless steppes. They encountered all kinds of difficulties and challenges, but they never gave up.

Finally, they came to the entrance to the Valley of Oblivion. It is a place covered in dense trees and vines, full of mystery. They cautiously walked through the woods, following a faint glow.

The light grew brighter and brighter, eventually leading them to a huge waterfall. The water of the waterfall glows with dazzling light, as if it were an angel's light. Aldridge and Su Xiao felt as if they were in a sacred place.

They approached the waterfall and found that the water of the waterfall was gushing out of a huge crystal stone. This is the legendary Fountain of Light. They carefully took out the crystal stone and felt the powerful energy it emanated.

However, just as they were about to leave, the dark mage's men suddenly appeared in front of the waterfall. They were sent by dark mages to protect the Fountain of Light and prevent anyone from accessing its powers.

Aldridge and Su Xiao showed their courage and wisdom in the face of the attacks of these men. They use their magical skills to engage in a fierce battle with their men. Although they were few in number, their determination and solidarity allowed them to withstand the attacks of their men.

In the end, Aldridge and Su Xiao successfully defeated their men and protected the Fountain of Light. They brought the crystal back to the Academy of Magic, showing the wise men their results.

The wise men were overjoyed, and they told Aldridge and Su Xiao that the power of the Fountain of Light would be the key to defeating the dark mages. They help Aldridge and Su Xiao learn how to harness the power of the Fountain of Light and how to combine it with their own magical skills.

In the cave, they meet a mysterious old man. The old man told them that to gain the power of ancient magic, they had to pass a series of tests. Aldridge and Su Xiao accepted the test without hesitation.

After some hard trials, they finally gained the power of ancient magic. This magic can weaken the dark mage's powers, making him vulnerable. Aldridge and Su Xiao were extremely excited, they knew that they had hope of defeating the dark forces.

Finally, the day of the decisive battle has arrived. The kingdom's armies fought fiercely against the dark forces. Aldridge and Su Xiao led the soldiers in battle, their swordsmanship and magic skills to the extreme.

The dark mage displayed his terrifying magical powers, and his attacks were almost impossible to resist. However, Aldridge and Su Xiao used their shield magic to successfully fend off the dark mage's attack.
