Chapter 244: Freedom and Justice

A badge is a sign of identity.

On the robe of every old student of the First University, there are two badges hanging on weekdays.

One is the triangular logo of the First University, and the other is the logo of the respective faculties.

The badge of the Nine Colleges looked like a copper coin, with round square holes etched with runes as thin as a fly's head; the badge of the Alpha Academy was relatively simple, with a small piece of silver wire twisted out of the 'Ξ±' pattern, and the silver filament was also full of dense spells; Atlas's badge was simpler, like a triangle, but its color was golden; among the four academies, only the badge of the Starry Sky Academy was more complicated, but it was only a six-pointed star.

These badges are said to have a powerful spell cast by the school's great wizard, and when worn, they not only help students concentrate, but also protect them from dust and heat, and resist many small evil spells, so they are popular.

It's just that the freshmen can only get these two heavy metal logos from the hands of their respective deans after attending the opening ceremony.

When Mrs. Bella of the school hospital was treating Zheng Qing, she once complained about this rigid rule.

"If you just enter the school and bring your badge, don't talk about this kind of indiscriminate curse, even if the five poisonous curses and the plague yellow curses, they will not fall on your heads. The chubby nurse complained loudly, and poured Zheng Qing a large cup of dusty talisman water so that he choked him to death.

At that time, Zheng Qing was not fully awake, but vaguely heard these complaints.

But that didn't stop him from being impressed.

First Hall.

The new students have returned to the verandah behind the stone pillars.

The stone platform under the nameless headmaster's feet also slowly rose into the air again.

The white mist rolled out of the darkness again, turning into different images such as ancient trees, giants, and strange beasts, and held up under the dusty stone platform.

A stocky figure cut through the mist and walked to the center of the hall, standing above the intricate array.

"Alpha's new life!"

Her eyes were bulging, and her red curls were obscured by a wide hood, making her look much shorter and fatter.

But that didn't affect her sonorous voice in the slightest:

"Alpha's freshman, out of the ranks!"

The white robes surged forward like the tide under the moon, one after another, and finally stopped in front of the witch.

The figure of the witch was like a strong embankment, standing in front of the white-robed people.

Zheng Qing noticed Lin Guo's short figure.

He stood at the front of the alpha procession, his wide robe dragged at his feet, looking a little sloppy, and the black goat standing next to him bit the horns of his robe from time to time to prevent the young wizard from falling.

But this funny scene did not arouse Zheng Qing's ridicule.

His gaze focused on something else that surprised him.

"Professor Emma?" Zheng Qing looked around, his tone was a little incredulous, "She's the dean of Alpha Academy, why didn't anyone tell me about this, isn't she the professor who taught me?"

"Who said that the professors of the Alpha Academy can't give us classes?Lao Yao's magic philosophy class also has those registered wizards of the research institute" Xin Fat Man squinted his eyes, looked at the young public scholarship student, and sneered, "Moreover, why do you want to tell you such a thing...... Does this well-known thing need special emphasis?"

Zheng Qing opened his mouth, speechless.

"Do you know who the dean of our academy is?" Xiao Xiao suddenly turned his head and asked.

The young student blinked, and finally shook his head quietly.

This time, even Zhang Jixin, Jiang Yu and others couldn't help but turn their heads to look at him.

"Nobody has told us these things...... Isn't it?" The young student muttered, straightening the collar of his red robe, a little nervous: "And there is no introduction from the deans on "Into the First University". ”

"Do you have to be told by others," Xiao Xiao said sharply, "You are already an adult...... Don't act like a kid all the time. ”

Zheng Qing squeezed in front of Dr. Xiao with a dark face, and stretched out his hand to compare the size gap between the two people.

Xiao Xiao was half a head shorter than him.

Poseidon's head popped out of his hood, spitting out his little pink tongue and grinning wildly.

"Childish...... You're as naΓ―ve as your dog. Dr. Xiao turned his head with a straight face, holding his notebook, and looked at the white-robed wizards who were receiving the badges in the middle of the room.

"Poseidon is a fox!" corrected Zheng Qing.

......

"Alpha Academy Freshman!"

The master of ceremonies stood in front of the freshman team, holding a heavy roster, and said in a loud voice:

"Alpha freshmen, when you hear the name, please step forward in order and accept the badge. ”

"Your animal companions can come forward with you and receive blessings. ”

"Now, the first freshman, please. ”

"Lin Guo!" he called out the first name.

The little wizard stumbled forward, as if he was about to fall to the ground at any moment.

This made many people sweat for him.

In comparison, the black goat next to him walked with a calm and dignified demeanor.

Professor Emma looked at him sternly with a stern face, and it was not until Lin Guo stood up straight that he took out the two silver badges from the elf's tray and hung them on the little wizard's chest.

Off-site.

The young public scholarship student seemed to forget the disgrace of a few minutes ago, rubbed Dr. Xiao next to him, and asked in a low voice, "You say, is the badge of Alpha pure silver?"

"I don't know. Xiao Xiao replied in a stiff tone.

Zheng Qing 'cut' and turned his gaze to the center of the hall again.

Lin Guo had followed the black goat back to the back of the line, and he happily raised the badge in his hand and waved it at every face he knew.

The blue elves, dressed in light white gauze and holding silver trays, floated in a neat line above the shoulders of each new student, like angels.

After each new student received the badge, the elves would carry the silver platters and quickly turn to the depths of the hall, disappearing behind the deep curtain.

"How long will it take......" Li Meng tugged at her cousin's robe, her tone already a little impatient.

"Quiet!" Jiang Yu tugged at her ears and rebuked the little witch in a low and stern voice.

The pigeon rubbed the little witch's reddened ears and cooed comforting in her throat.

Li Meng flattened her mouth and didn't complain anymore in the end.

More than 100 freshmen, not much, but too little.

Professor Emma took the trouble to pin the two badges to each new student one after another, very seriously.

After finishing the emblem, Professor Emma stood in front of the new students, spoke calmly, and said:

"Talent is a gift from our bloodline. ”

"Everybody's got their talent in their blood. ”

"At Alpha Academy, you can reach your full potential and show your talents!"

"Justice is to let everyone have what they want, and freedom is to learn to give up. Give up what we're not good at and show what we're good at – that's what we're after!"

"For freedom and justice!" the Alpha freshmen puffed out their chests and looked at Professor Emma with determination.

Professor Emma closed the book in her hand heavily.

Streams of white light pierced through the circle beneath her feet, shooting into the endless darkness above her head.

A few seconds later, a dazzling white light suddenly flowed down from the void, like a long river, drowning the figures of the white-robed wizards.

The entire First Hall is shrouded in milky white colors, and this ancient building seems to be transformed into a sacred place in the Garden of Eden in an instant.

Zheng Qing couldn't help but raise his hand and block it in front of him.

His eyes hurt from the white light.
