An hour ago, at eight o'clock in the morning, Ye Qingxuan came to the lecture hall on time where he had taken the exam.

Today is the official opening day, and according to the practice of the Royal Academy of Music, the first class will be arranged here, regardless of which branch or department. However, in previous years, the principal gave a speech and urged everyone to study hard together, but no one expected that although the principal was not in school this year, he left such a terrible gift!

Just as the teacher entered the door, a sudden illusion pulled everyone in.

Now that the illusion had finally dissipated, the teacher carefully picked up the vinyl record on the gramophone and put it back in the box.

"Tsk, this is quite a rare record-type alchemy equipment, I didn't expect to come to the first-grade classroom once in a while and get good things. ”

On the side, someone patted his thigh: "This visual effect and sound are shocking, it's really in vain that I got up early and came to the class to listen." ”

Ye Qingxuan turned his head with a sad face, and saw Xia Er gnawing on the apple with a happy face, and the fruit skin that had been lost under his feet, next to him, the fruit basket had been completely occupied by Bai Xi and held in his arms.

He glanced at Bai Xi, but was glared back by Bai Xi, and suddenly sighed: "Senior brother, it's okay for you to come here to attend class as a senior student, but is it really good for you to eat like this?"

"How can I watch a video without eating?"

Charles looked at him in surprise: "I've eaten all the popcorn in a bucket, you tell me this? Why don't you have some of it?"

"I'm still ...... it"

The corners of Ye Qingxuan's mouth twitched, and he wisely stopped talking.

Since the entrance exam ended two days ago, Ye Qingxuan and Bai Xi moved into the academy. Because it is also under the Department of Music History Studies, even the dormitory is together.

It's not just dormitories.

The classrooms, offices, student dormitories, and teachers' dormitories of the entire Department of Music History are basically in the same two-story building. That's right, in the corner of the school, you can't find it at all if you don't look closely.

At that time, when Ye Qingxuan saw that small building for the first time, he felt a chill coming out of his back.

This house is at least 200 years old, right?

The mottled walls were covered with vines, the front of the door was littered with fallen leaves, and there was an indifferent glance from the wild cat on the roof. Countless details are piled up to restore the atmosphere that only exists in horror legends.

Is it really okay to live in this kind of haunted house?

Moreover, the architectural arrangement of the entire Royal Academy of Music is quite strange, so strange that someone will get lost after living in the academy for five years.

The whole Royal Academy of Music is a complete labyrinth!

When Ye Qingxuan knew that he had to memorize a map to buy breakfast, the whole person was desperate......

In general, in this case, there should be enthusiastic seniors who lend a hand. But the biggest problem is that this enthusiastic senior is completely unreliable!

In just two days, Ye Qingxuan profoundly comprehended Charles's ability to get lost.

Sometimes, when it's a flat road, in the blink of an eye, Charles disappears with a bang! And then this guy will definitely come out of all sorts of strange places......

And this guy will not only get lost himself, but will also take others into the ditch.

Once Ye Qingxuan followed him to the school cafeteria, but inexplicably ran to Avalon's Lower Town, he began to understand why the teacher would tell him thousands of times, saying that he must not let Charles lead the way......

－

I've only known each other for two days, but the short time is so fulfilling for this senior brother!

In two days, he was blocked four times by debt collectors, chased and slashed six times, and slapped in public by two strange girls he didn't know last night and this morning. The two pretty girls didn't say anything, they started crying, hid their faces...... What a great iniquity you have done!

"Yezi, your expression suddenly became so miserable. ”

On the side, Charles leaned over with an enthusiastic face: "Hemorrhoids? Oh, this disease is terrible, it must be detected and treated early, if you want me to say, let's go to the infirmary after class to have a look? I'll take you there, maybe the doctor can give you a 20% discount......"

“...... No, I'm fine. Ye Qingxuan's expression twitched, and he struggled to squeeze out a smile.

"Oh, that's good. ”

Charles somehow found another durian and handed it to him: "Why don't you have some too?"

“......”

Ye Qingxuan turned his head, and there was an urge to burst into tears in the stench of durian.

"Oh, by the way, there seem to be a few people in the row next to you who have been staring here, are they hungry?"

Charles sighed in a low voice: "If you want to eat fruit, come and get it, how can you do it without breakfast......"

Ye Qingxuan looked back and saw only a few aristocratic teenagers sitting together looking at him with a look of disdain. The red-haired boy at the head, he remembered that he was the first to be admitted in this class, and it seemed to be called 'Edmund'?

Next to Edmund, Banner looked down at his fingers as if he hadn't woken up, his slender eyes raised so that he couldn't understand what he was thinking.

Sensing that Ye Qingxuan was looking at it, their expressions became disgusted, glanced at him, and withdrew their gaze.

"What's wrong?"

Bai Xi found that he was looking elsewhere, "Didn't you sleep enough in a daze?"

"Nothing. ”

Ye Qingxuan retracted his gaze: "There are a few neuropaths who want to eat bananas." ”

－

"Well, you all seem to be almost recovered. ”

On the podium, the teacher who had finished cleaning up slowly looked at the audience: "The teacher also has a sniffing salt here, if there are female students who pretend to be dizzy, you can come up and get it." The classmate next to you, don't be excited and want artificial respiration, people are pretending, don't you see?

And that classmate who eats, where did you get your stuff?"

The teacher looked in the direction of Charles, and his face became serious: "It's you, the classmate in the second row, I recognized you a long time ago, eat in my class, do you know the rules?"

"Uh......"

Charles was stunned, he awkwardly grabbed the banana he had just broken in his hand, thought about it, and carefully handed it to the podium: "Why don't you come too?"

"Senior brother, you are hopeless. ”

Ye Qingxuan covered his face sadly, not wanting to admit that he knew this second goods.

"Young man, you know the rules!"

In the silence, the teacher and Charles looked at each other, and suddenly smiled: "The child can be taught!"

In the sound of his eyes shattering, the teacher grabbed the banana and nodded in admiration: "Well, don't say it!

"That's right! I just stole it from the backyard of the Change Academy this morning, and I've been waiting for that bunch for half a year. ”

Charles took out his stock from his pocket: "Why don't you have another orange to taste?"

The teacher hesitated for a moment, saw the stunned students below, and finally reacted, so he coughed twice in a fake way:

"Ahem, what about class, it's not good. ”

At the front, Ye Qingxuan heard it clearly, and the teacher lowered his voice and said, "Remember to send two catties to the office again......"

“......”

Is this school still saved?

－

"Ahem, it was a joke just now, and now the class has officially started. ”

After the teacher finished eating the banana, the painting style suddenly turned aside, and even his expression became serious: "If a classmate was relieved just now, then let's bring it up again now." ”

"The break is over. ”

"What I will teach you next is available in the "Brief Discussion on the History and Research of Natural Disasters" that was sent to you. By the way, the whole book is about the exam, so you don't need to ask me to focus on it. ”

Ye Qingxuan's body instinctively sat up straight.

The drama is finally here!

－

Natural disasters, as the name suggests, are disasters that cannot be resisted by human beings.

Generally speaking, such things that are not capable of human beings will stay away from humans, but most natural disasters are on the borders of the human world. Since the Dark Ages, legends of destruction have been left behind. Every invasion of natural disasters results in tragic losses and sacrifices.

Even before the Dark Ages, there were signs of natural disasters in the murals excavated by humans.

They are very diverse and have a variety of characteristics, some are living things, some are plants, and some even seem to have no life...... The complex classification in it is enough to write a thick book. It is the tome in Ye Qingxuan's hand at present.

But no matter what natural disasters are, they conform to a basic law, or they are shrouded in the same mystery.

Where do they come from?

What do they want to do?

And why are they the way they are...... What about hating humans?

The terrifying shadow of natural disasters has been with human history since the dawn of humanity. Even after humanity mastered the power of the ether, in the five hundred years since the end of the Dark Ages, various tragic events have emerged one after another.

To date, no more than a quarter of the world has been explored. And no more than half of this quarter can be cultivated in the etheric temperate zone.

Every inch of land is stained with the blood of human beings in the fight against natural disasters.

Every victory over a natural disaster costs hundreds of lives.

But the desperate thing is that these monsters are undead.

Their bodies are made of aether, there is no such thing as death, and even if their bodies are destroyed, they will only lose their memories and return to the dark world to sleep again. When it reappears, it will take on a new life.

They're getting stronger......

－

In order to defend against the arrival of natural disasters, human beings have laid boundary monuments in all directions.

In the easternmost part, the four emperors of the Aurora Empire drove millions of slaves to build the Great Wall, on the city wall, a beacon tower was erected between 100 steps, and musicians were on duty 24 hours a day.

100,000 beacon towers are 100,000 beacon fires, and if the beacon flames are not extinguished, it is impossible for natural disasters to break into human territory unscrupulously.

In the northernmost ice field, the Asgardians built their empire on glaciers, where the Valhalla Line was forged from broken tomahawks and the bones of the dead.

In the desert of the West, the Semitic defensive line of construction has been completely breached, and is now being rebuilt by the coalition of nations. It is said that at the end of the desert, an unquenchable karmic fire still burns on the ruins of the old defense line.

As for the westernmost Endless Sea, which is the calmest, the Sea Devil Leviathan has not been seen for more than hundreds of years. And the one guarding here is the city where Ye Qingxuan and the others are located...... Avalon.

The Kingdom of Anglo itself carries on the mission of Arthur, the founding king of the kingdom hundreds of years ago, and stands forever in the far west against the sea demons.

Even though it hasn't been seen for hundreds of years, the security has not been relaxed to this day.

Around Avalon, more than twenty of the more than forty satellite islands are locked off in complete secrecy, and ten nautical miles away will be stopped in front of the strayed ship, telling them that you have entered the restricted area, and that you now understand that it is too late to make a mistake, and at least you can choose to turn back or die here.

In addition to this, large and small fortifications, fortresses in the hinterland of the human world, thousands of ...... The human art of war is not only to sharpen each other among fellow kinds, but also to guard against alien disasters.

At this point, the teacher paused and smiled secretly: "The natural disaster that poses the greatest threat to the human world at present, everyone must have heard of its name.

- 'Mother Darkness'. ”
