Chapter 1: Awakening from a dream

Another dazzling white light.

Nangong Shuo woke up suddenly, his body was already soaked with sweat, since he was sent away by his father with a teleportation array, he changed his name and surname, and he was still breathing, and it had been twelve years.

A burst of cold hit, Nangong Shuo felt that he had a splitting headache, and suddenly jumped up from the bed, whenever the moonlight was right, he would remember the scene at that time, bloody, terrifying, and people couldn't sleep peacefully. The moonlight shone on his face, making his otherwise fair face pale. Nangong Shuo opened his eyes full of murderous intent, and the blue filaments of light unconsciously climbed up his eyes, merging into his pupils with star-like rays, blue light, cold.

The surrounding temperature plummeted, and the air condensed into a cloud of white mist that gathered into Nangong Shuo's palm, instantly integrating ice threads, and the ice threads gathered into ice edges one by one.

Nangong Shuo seemed to be unable to control the killing, and Bingling seemed to be about to come out of his hands and blow up this simple grass hut to pieces.

Daddy's death was played over and over again in front of Nangong Shuo's eyes like a movie, and the face of Daddy and Niang still appeared on the round moon......

"Canglan, Canglan! One day, I will definitely seek revenge on you!" Nangong Shuo stared at the ice Ling in his hand, and in a trance, he seemed to see Canglan's long silver hair, blood-red eyes, and a wave of anger rushed straight up, and Bing Ling was about to come out of his hand in an instant.

"Ahh

A childish voice sounded, Nangong Shuo woke up suddenly, calmed down like a deflated balloon, sweat slid down his face, mixed with the ice water that melted in his palms. Flicking his long blue hair like the sky, Nangong Shuo looked at his sleeping younger brother, and finally got freed from the dream, and a rare smile appeared on the corner of his mouth.

Nangong Qiu, the twelve-year-old body has already grown extremely strong, and his short brown hair contrasts sharply with his brother Nangong Shuo.

Twelve years ago, that sentence of protecting your brother still continued to echo in Nangong Shuo's ears, prompting him to become stronger and support him to live.

And dawn is the time when Nangong Qiu joins Thunder City Academy and officially becomes a mage apprentice.

The mage apprentice is the most basic position of the mage in Leizhou City, after practicing a certain number of spells, through the assessment, the mage apprentice can obtain the shining title of mage, and then up, is the Dharma Venerable, the Dharma King. And the higher-level titles, which can only be decided by the Mage Alliance Headquarters, are awarded the titles of Law Emperor, Law Saint, and Law God. And only as a mage, can you enter the escort team of Leizhou City and defend Leizhou City.

Nangong Shuo gently wiped his Dharma Venerable badge, this badge represents unparalleled strength, and it also represents a status far beyond his peers.

Nangong Shuo muttered to himself, not enough, not enough. The Dharma Venerable, the captain of the district guard team, the day of revenge is far away.

A touch of pain welled up on his brow.

In eight years, from a mage apprentice to a Dharma Venerable and the leader of the Freedom Guard of Leizhou City, Nangong Shuo knew that he was not a genius, and he took this difficult road for the sake of his parents who died in the disaster twelve years ago, and to protect his young brother. However, Nangong Shuo always believed that his younger brother would definitely be stronger than himself and bear the burden of the family.

Looking at the sleeping Nangong Qiu, Nangong Shuo's eyes were confused, when one day, he knew the truth twelve years ago, what would happen?

Looking at Nangong Qiu's sleeping appearance, Nangong Shuo smiled from the bottom of his heart, and was finally able to sleep peacefully.

Tonight, maybe I can have a better dream......

At last the first rays of morning light shone through the clouds, and the rooster in the fence crowed.

"Get up!" The earth-shattering sound made the dust in the house fly up, but it did not reach the ears of the surrounding villagers at all.

Nangong Shuo shuddered, not good! Then he turned his head and shook Nangong Qiu who was still bubbling in his nostrils.

"Wake up!

"Oh............"

"Hurry up, have you forgotten what day it is, and how are you doing?"

Nangong Qiu was also taken aback, "Oh no, I have to be beaten again." "

Nangong Shuo was helpless for a while: "Go report first, don't worry about you." "

I saw Nangong Shuo move from the bed to the eyes of an old man in the small living room in an extremely strange footwork in an extremely strange way, the fatigue of last night had long disappeared, and a string of phantoms were left behind him, which disappeared one by one after a few seconds.

"That's right! Condensed but not solid, as light as a swallow. The old man smiled knowingly, and this smile instantly froze in the next second.

Nangong Qiu was slowly coming out of the room, rubbing his sleepy eyes from time to time, and his short brown hair was scattered against his young and handsome face, "So early, I haven't slept enough." "

A stick hit him on the head in an instant, "You uncompetitive boy!" "How long have I been teaching you? I can't even learn the most basic shadow steps, and I'm going to become a mage apprentice today, how can you do this?"

"Okay, okay," Nangong Qiu said aggrievedly, "I'll work hard!, but grandpa, you said that I was going to become a mage apprentice today, so you couldn't teach me more powerful spells?"

The old man looked like he hated that iron could not become steel, "How many times have I told you, this is the foundation, the most important thing! If you don't learn the foundation well, you won't be able to learn our family's stronger spells." "

Nangong Qiu stuck out his tongue, "I can't learn it, it's because I always feel that when I cast a shadow step, the aura in my body is uncontrollable." "

"That's because you haven't learned your art! cough, I think I'm famous in Nangong Tianyi, how can I have such an uncompetitive grandson, it's really an angry old man. "

"Alright, grandpa, you're here again. Xiao Qiu has to rush to Leizhou City as soon as possible. Nangong Shuo smiled and made a round.

"Okay, Shuo'er, you can take him with you. Nangong Tianbai glanced at Nangong Qiu, who was snickering, "Take this with you too, save it." With that, he threw a shriveled money bag to Nangong Qiu.

"Thank you, grandpa!"

"Go ahead. "

"Hmm!" Nangong Shuo said, putting on the uniform of his Freedom Guard, the pure white fabric made Nangong Shuo's originally handsome face look even more otherworldly, tied with a copper belt engraved with the word "Wei", and a long sword on his back, Nangong Shuo looked back and smiled, "Xiao Qiu, let's go." "

"Yes!"

With that, the brothers swooped out of the house and left the small village.

Nangong Tian looked at the backs of the brothers leaving, and vaguely saw the shadow of Xuanyuan Zhan, the shadow who was on the Fengling Platform before he was thirty years old to accept the blessing of the Emperor of the Law, and the shadow who studied spells under the dim light............

A long sigh.

The streets of Leizhou City have always been so prosperous, with lavishly decorated roadside hotels and bustling restaurants. Passing through the bazaar, Nangong Qiu was even more dazzled, Nangong Qiu, who had never been far away, walked around curiously, looking here, looking there, dizzying. Just then, a group of guards in golden armor walked down the street.

"Brother, what is that?" Nangong Qiu had never seen such a domineering team, and he was suddenly curious.

"That's the Guards, an army under Tang Yuan, one of the four protectors of Leizhou City, specifically to protect the high-ranking figures of the Mage Alliance. "

"Wow...... The four protectors of Leizhou City, it sounds very powerful!"

"Our human race has been wary of the demon race and the spirit beast clan day and night, and twenty years ago, even the mysterious dark feather clan expressed hostility towards the human race, competing for resources everywhere, and assassinating the strong people of the human race everywhere............" Saying this, Nangong Shuo couldn't help but clench his fists, and couldn't help but think of the death of his father and mother twelve years ago, and the dark feather leader named Canglan.

Nangong Shuo came back to his senses and continued to preach, "Some powerful mages, in order to defend themselves, took Leizhou City as their mansion and strengthened the Leizhou Guardian System, and those four powerful mages became the four protectors of Leizhou City. The four of them all have at least the strength of the French Emperor, and Tang Yuan is the leader of the Guards, and the French Emperor's badge is the Divine Beast Xuanwu, responsible for protecting some high-level people, and their status is naturally very high!"

"So powerful, no wonder they're all so cool. "

"And the other three are Liu Qingwen, the leader of the combat army, the Suzaku badge, Mo He, the leader of the Freedom Guard, the White Tiger badge, and Zhuge Yun, the leader of the patrol army. "

"Then the leader of my brother is Mohe?"

"Yes, the Freedom Guard, uninhibited, non-conformist, carrying out some tasks to explore the outside world, coming and going at will, so happy. "

Nangong Shuo's eyes reflecting the blue sky are incomparably clear, as if he is wandering in the boundless wilderness, galloping on the breezy grassland.

"When I become a mage, I will also join the Freedom Escort like my brother!" Nangong Qiu waved his small fist, full of confidence in himself.

"I'm sure you can, and it's said that this year's apprentice mentors are not ordinary. Nangong Shuo said with a smile.

The two brothers were walking on the side of the street, talking and laughing, feeling the lively atmosphere around them, listening to the shouts of the hawkers, Nangong Qiu was even more excited than just now, and did not let go of any interesting things.

At this moment, another group of guards passed by, and the heavy armor knocked the passers-by away one after another, without mercy. The Guards have a noble status and have always been extremely domineering, and everyone can only stay away without any complaints, while Nangong Qiu has no choice but to pout, being squeezed around by passers-by, not daring to speak.

The people moved out of the way for the Guards to pass, and in the middle of the walled road, there was an old man walking slowly. The old man seemed to have a problem with his eyes, and he didn't know what was going on at all, but he was still walking slowly, and the guards were almost here.

"Bang!" The guards who opened the way completely ignored the old man and knocked him to the ground, and the captain of the leader paused slightly, raised his right foot armed with steel leggings, and kicked the old man on the ground to the side of the road with a dull sound mixed with metallic sounds.

The group continued to move forward, no expression visible on the face under the golden helmet, as if nothing had happened, even though the other party was a helpless old man.

"How can they do this! Bully an old man who has no power to do this!"

A wave of anger suddenly rushed into Nangong Qiu's eyes.
