Chapter 38: The Awakening of the Immortal Boy
A young man in rags wandered aimlessly down the streets of Huttonmar, his hunger and cold making it impossible for him to move any further.
"Mother", the boy thought of his adoptive mother's kind appearance, the closest person in the world to him.
Then, a sea of blood and fire kept coming to his mind, making him feel a cold that went deep into his bone marrow.
"Kid, go!" It was the last thing he heard from his adoptive mother, and then he fell into endless darkness.
Months of wandering never bent his spine, but today, he was no longer able to move forward.
His eyes were black, and he fell into the flying snowflakes, and a thin layer of ice had already formed on his body.
I don't know how long it has been.
"Wake up", "wake up", a voice in the darkness kept calling.
"Have I come to heaven?" , the young man's mind gradually sobered up.
As his consciousness gradually cleared up, he opened his eyes and saw a kind old man looking at him serenely.
The old man wore a pair of wide-rimmed eyes, and his hands carefully stirred a bowl of steaming soup.
"You're awake," the old man gently lifted him up, and fed him spoonful by spoonful of the hot soup
"My name is Norton, you can just call me old man", the old man looked at the young man lovingly, as if he were looking at his own grandson.
"Grandpa, my name is Norax". The boy felt a long-lost warmth form in his heart, melting the ice in his heart.
Since then, the boy has lived in the old man's house.
"Grandpa, I'll repay you well in the future," Norax said one day as he clenched his little fist into Norton.
"Child, your grandfather is about to step into the coffin with one foot, and what do you want in return", Norton touched little Norax's head, "Grandpa just wants one day you can grow up and change your destiny", Norton looked at the sunset in the distance, "That's grandpa's greatest gratification."
"You will go to the best academy in the future and become a talent of my alchemy union!"
The boy is more diligent than before, and he wants to be his grandfather's greatest pride.
If the story continues, perhaps the boy will become a great scholar, but one day, a group of uninvited guests break into his house.
"Old man Norton, that's what President Sharan meant, I can't blame us," Nero glared at Norton viciously.
"Since you have embarrassed the president, you should have thought that there would be today."
Norton glanced at the enemies around him, his eyes filled with anger.
"I have never done anything against my conscience in my life, come at me, the Alchemy Guild is dissolved today, and it has nothing to do with anyone else", he stepped forward as he spoke.
"Hehe", Nero looked Norton up and down, "But the president didn't mean to let us move your people", he pointed to a batch of alchemy books and equipment that he had just found from Norton's house, "These are the things."
"Give me a fire and burn it all," Nero instructed his men.
"You!" Norton stepped forward and stopped the man who was about to do it.
"Obstructionist, no mercy", Nero expressionless, "Go on!" ”。
A fire mage pulled out his wand and aimed it at Norton.
Norton didn't take a half point back, "This is my brainchild, if you want to burn it, step on my corpse!" ”。
A cloud of energy gathered on the wand, then turned into a ball of fire, heading for Norton.
The blazing flames immediately engulfed Norton, who endured the scorching heat of the magical flames, but he didn't back down.
"Yo, this old man still has hard bones", Nero half-squinted, "burn incense for him today next year".
A group of people gathered Norton in the middle and raised their magic staffs.
At this time, Norax, who had been hiding behind Norton timidly, saw Norton's painful and resolute expression in the flames, his eyes widened, and something in his heart was touched.
"Grandpa just wants one day you can grow up and change your destiny", Norton's words echoed in his mind.
The small fist clenched tightly, and a trace of dark power that had been silent for a long time in his heart was running rapidly, devouring fear and uneasiness, turning into the purest magic.
"I've lost my parents, I can't afford to lose my grandfather anymore", the nails sink deep into the palms of my hands, oozing drops of blood.
The boy's eyes turned into a deep black vortex, devouring the dark elements around him.
The staffs in the hands of the magicians shone brightly, "Bear the pain of the flames," they shouted in unison.
Balls of fire whistled towards Norton, who closed his eyes.
It seemed to fall silent for a moment, leaving only the sound of flames burning.
On the other side, a great force twisted and swirled around Norax, draining the dark elements of the night sky in an instant.
The bright moon in the sky was also covered with a black veil of darkness, and a large black hole formed in the sky, frantically devouring the light.
"Black ... Dark Forbidden Realm! Someone exclaimed.
Immediately, everyone felt that their bodies could barely move, and the magic was pulled into this large black hole.
The thin body in this whirlwind suddenly burst out with a scream: "Whoever moves my grandfather must die!" ”。
"The mystery of ice! Ice Dragon Dance! Norak exclaimed.
At this time, everyone present felt that the ice in the underground layer suddenly formed, and the temperature dropped below zero.
Immediately, a silver dragon emerged from the ground, and the dragon spun rapidly, forming a huge silver tornado.
The tornado expanded wildly, sucking the surrounding fire mages into it with a huge suction, shattering them into ash.
"The mystery of ice! Ice Storm Blade! Norax erupted again.
Suddenly, countless Dao Ming swaying ice blades appeared from the tornado, spun and flew out in an incredible arc, directly cutting off the enemy's flesh and blood.
For a time, flesh and blood flew on the spot, and corpses were everywhere.
"Bang!" The black hole in the sky also exploded, and the sky within a radius of miles was contaminated with viscous dark elements, and the other elements were driven far away.
Stunned, Nero felt as if he was stuck in a quagmire and could not move.
He hurriedly took out a scroll and muttered, and a spatial crack immediately sucked him in.
Norax held Norton's dying body in his arms, and his figure flashed, flashing straight out of the yard, leaving only corpses and blood stains on the ground.
"Grandpa, you must cheer up!" The boy used his own power to temporarily freeze Norton's burned body.
"I'll be your pride!"
