Chapter 1, Antecedents
"Wang Mu, hurry down, I'll be late for school in a minute. A delicate and gentle voice sounded downstairs.
After a while, Wang Mu, who was wearing a blue and white mage robe and looked a little weak, ran down the wooden stairs with a bulging schoolbag on his back, and when he came downstairs, he was already a little out of breath.
Wang Mu is fifteen years old this year, a sophomore at the Shire City National Academy in the Gill County Province of the Roland Empire, and a magic apprentice with ordinary qualifications.
All he has to do every day is study, study, and learn!
In the living room, there was a woman with black hair and a dignified and beautiful woman, she saw Wang Mu coming down, and gently stepped forward to put a hat on Wang Mu and put a thick scarf around her.
"Mom, do you have to dress like this to go to school? I'm going to be laughed at. Wang Mu resisted helplessly.
The woman pinched his face lovingly, and said with a smile: "Who made you thin and weak, now that the weather is so cold, don't let you wear some clothes, my mother will be worried." ”
Wang Mu knew that no matter how he protested, it would not be effective, so he had to accept all this honestly. He put on a pair of gloves for himself and said helplessly, "Mom, then I'm leaving!"
"Well, go ahead! Be honest in the academy. The woman gently instructed.
"I know—that!" Wang Mu agreed in a long voice, then pushed open the door and walked towards the street outside.
There was a snowfall the day before yesterday, the snow on the road has not melted to this day, and the lively streets on weekdays are now deserted, as soon as Wang Mu came out, the cold wind blowing outside made him shiver.
Wang Mu's school place was not very far from home, and it didn't take long to arrive at the college.
As soon as he entered the classroom, he heard an offensive voice and exaggerated mockery: "Look! the mascot of our class is here, how cute the furry ones are!"
Wang Mu frowned, he didn't have to think about it to know who was speaking.
In the last row of the classroom, there was a fat man sitting by the window, and at this time he was looking at Wang Mu who walked in with a mocking face, and several boys around him also laughed in agreement, looking very annoying!
Wang Mu lowered his head and ignored them, walked straight to his seat and sat down, he thought angrily in his heart: "This dead fat man, I can't get along with me, one day I want you to look good." ”
The fat man's name is He Rui, and he is the eldest of some unscrupulous students in the college, and if he doesn't study hard all day, he knows how to bully his classmates.
The fat man often took a group of younger brothers to mock Wang Mu and make fun of him, which made Wang Mu extremely indignant, but he was helpless against a bully like He Rui!
Wang Mu looked at the seat in front of him on the left, a girl with a cute smile and a touching smile, and said secretly in his heart: "Why is a beautiful and lovely girl like He Shouxiao have a nasty brother like He Rui?
He Shouxiao is the most beautiful and active girl in Wang Mu's class, she is talented and intelligent, and her grades are very good, not only the teacher likes her, but also the classmates. And her younger brother He Rui is just the opposite of her, not only does he study poorly, but he also bullies his classmates all day long, which makes almost everyone hate him, and the sisters and brothers are so unsuitable together.
He looked at He Shouxiao's delicate side face like a porcelain doll, and secretly thought in his heart: "If I become a powerful magician in the future, I must marry a girl like her." ”
Magician, these three words seemed to be an unattainable word to Wang Mu before yesterday.
Wang Mu's magic talent is not good, he hates the boring magic theories taught by the academy teachers on weekdays, but he is not as powerful as He Rui's fat pig, so he has no talent in swordsmanship. Coupled with the fact that Wang Mu has always been silent, this has caused him to play an obscure role in the academy.
So no matter what, it seems that Wang Mu wants to become an excellent magician. But since he was lucky enough to get a mysterious "Warcraft Egg" in an accident five days ago, everything has changed in his life.
Wang Mu leaned back in his chair, thinking of the monster egg he had hidden under the bed, his face was suddenly filled with a happy smirk, and then he remembered the accident that was enough to change his life five days ago.
On that day, the academy organized students to go to the "Magic Guild" in the city to see an exhibition about Warcraft. The exhibit includes some rare specimens of monsters and book murals documenting various types of monsters, as well as several common demon-hunting weapons. During the period, the Magic Guild also took out the very precious "Demon Core" and "Demon Beast Egg" for the students to visit, and this rare treasure made Wang Mu look at it with relish!
However, at this moment, a group of mysterious men in black fell from the sky and broke through the barrier of the Magic Guild and broke in. This group of men in black was numerous and extremely strong, and quickly defeated all the mages and swordsmen present.
With a quick move, they snatched a batch of valuable items, including some precious magic cores and monster eggs.
At this time, the visitors in the guild were so frightened by this sudden scene that none of them dared to resist them. The teachers of the academy were very calm at the moment, they knew that their strength was inferior to this group of black-clothed people, so they protected the students and hid in the corner to prevent them from being accidentally injured by this group of people.
Wang Mu held his head in his hands, hiding alone in the corner, and the teachers didn't notice that this inconspicuous student had fallen behind in the line just now because he was too obsessed with watching the monster eggs.
Looking at the mysterious black-clothed people in front of him, Wang Mu was both frightened and excited in his heart, if he became a powerful magician, he would definitely stand up and bring them to justice.
The group of men in black did not hurt the innocent, they were well-trained and obviously prepared, and they quickly grabbed a lot of things and prepared to leave, but at this time, six knights appeared and stopped them. However, the clothes of these knights are somewhat different from what Wang Mu usually sees, and it seems that they are not just ordinary soldiers.
Before Wang Mu could figure it out, a fierce battle unfolded in front of him.
Wang Mu was dumbfounded to see one of the somewhat thin knights, his body instantly lit up with dazzling blue light, and he knocked a tall and strong black-clothed man in front of him out with a light punch, and then only heard a loud "boom", and the black-clothed man's entire body was deeply embedded in the wall in the distance.
Looking at the scene happening in front of him, Wang Mu smacked his tongue! This kind of power is beyond the scope of his cognition, even those teachers in the academy can't have this kind of power!
The short but fierce battle ended quickly, and the men in black were easily dealt with by these mysterious knights, and they were beaten to the ground like water dogs, completely devoid of the evil aura when they broke into the magic guild before, but in the short melee just now, there were still two men in black who escaped.
The guild was in shambles, most of the buildings had collapsed, and there was not a single piece of marble floor left intact.
The battle that had just taken place alarmed the guards in the city, and soon a large group of soldiers in armor and weapons rushed in, and the leading captain saw the six knights in the hall, and immediately showed a look of sincere fear.
Although the battle just now was fierce, fortunately there were not too many casualties, and the soldiers who arrived after the escort legion unceremoniously tied up a group of black-clothed people, and then escorted them back to the City Lord's Mansion.
