After handing it over to the system, the three brothers knelt down and begged for forgiveness

In the laboratory, Nan Qiao was wearing a black protective suit, and the crisp material seemed to have built a solid barrier for her.

The combat bag was carried steadily on her back, revealing a determination as she was about to go to the battlefield.

She carefully checked the miniature camera. It was the key to the Special Bureau's research on the alien world and it couldn't break down.

At this moment, Zhao Gang walked up to Nan Qiao with a serious expression and warned her earnestly, "Nan Qiao, when you travel to this alien world, getting the treasure isn't the key. The most important thing is your own safety."

"Because of the randomness of time travel, it is fraught with unpredictable dangers. You must always remain vigilant. When encountering danger, the first thing to do is to protect yourself. Remember, your safety is more precious than any treasure."

Nan Qiao nodded slightly, her eyes flickering. She was well aware of the dangers of traveling to another world, but she had been preparing for a month, and her physical fitness was much stronger than before. She was also ready to face all challenges.

Nan Qiao stood on the stage, nodded and said goodbye to everyone silently, then contacted the system to travel through time.

"100 points of protection have been deducted, leaving 250 points. You are about to cross over, please be prepared."

As soon as he finished speaking, a strong light flashed and Nan Qiao disappeared on the circular platform of the laboratory.

Nan Qiao only felt that the scene before her was sudden, and before she could fully adapt, she was shocked by the tragic scene before her.

This is a village with backward information, simple culture and houses built with thatch.

At this moment, the village was crowded with people, flames shot up into the sky, and cries of crying and killing were intertwined.

As Nan Qiao gained her footing, a bandit with a ferocious face pounced on her. His raised hand brought with it a fierce gust of wind, and it seemed that he was about to slap her to death with one blow.

At the critical moment, a fireball came whistling like a meteor and hit the bandit with a ferocious face accurately.

The bandit had to retract his hand and dodge the fireball sideways.

The fireball hit the ground and exploded instantly, raising a cloud of dust.

A little boy rushed out from the chaotic crowd, his eyes were firm and his little face was full of courage.

He grabbed Nan Qiao's hand and shouted, "Follow me!"

Then he turned around and ran wildly in one direction.

Nan Qiao was pulled by the little boy and stumbled after him.

She looked back as she ran and was horrified to find that those bandits actually knew magic!

Some bandits would create a strong wind with a wave of their hands, blowing the villagers to and fro; some bandits would mutter something, and a bolt of lightning would strike from the sky, causing the ground to fly with dirt and rocks.

Those innocent villagers were unable to fight back under the bandits' magical attacks and could only cry out in despair.

Nan Qiao's heart trembled, and she instantly realized that she might have come to a world of cultivating immortals.

In this world, magic is rampant and full of dangers. She glanced at the little boy who was holding her tightly, and a complex emotion welled up in her heart.

I am grateful to the little boy for saving my life at the critical moment, but I am also worried about the cruelty of this strange world.

The little boy took Nan Qiao through the narrow village paths, bypassing burning houses and avoiding panicked villagers.

The little boy walked quickly, as if he knew the terrain here very well.

Nan Qiao's heart was full of confusion and nervousness, but at this moment he could only follow the little boy closely.

They ran across a field and came to the back of a dilapidated thatched hut.

The little boy stopped and said breathlessly, "It's safe here for now. They won't find us."

Nan Qiao looked at the little boy and said gratefully, "Thank you for saving me."

The little boy raised his chin slightly and said, "You're welcome. These bandits are so abominable. I can't bear to see them hurt innocent people."

He lowered his eyes as he spoke, with a look of helplessness and anxiety, "Unfortunately, I'm only at the fifth level of Qi Refining. Most of the bandits are at the seventh level, and the leader is at the tenth level. I can't defeat them at all!"

Nan Qiao looked down at him. The little boy looked no more than seven or eight years old, with short black hair that was a little messy, but made him look more lively.

His face is small and delicate, his eyebrows are like ink paintings, and his slightly upturned eyes reveal a stubbornness and determination.

His eyes were as bright as obsidian, and although they were filled with helplessness and anxiety, they still sparkled.

He was wearing a dark blue coarse cloth shirt, which was worn white in some places and had a few small patches on the corners.

There was a black belt tied around the waist with a small cloth bag hanging on it.

He was wearing a pair of worn cloth shoes, the uppers of which were covered with dust.

Although he was dressed simply and even a little shabby, he was like a shining star in this chaotic scene, emitting the light of bravery and kindness.

Nan Qiao felt that he was not as simple as he seemed.

The little boy was wearing a dark blue coarse cloth and looked no different from an ordinary villager.

However, if you look closely, you can find that the material of his inner clothes is silky, and although his outer clothes are old, they are kept very neatly, and he exudes a sense of nobility.

The black belt around his waist, although not gorgeous, was tied just right, and the small cloth bag hanging on it also looked delicate and mysterious.

In addition, he has the cultivation level of the fifth level of Qi Refining. In this chaotic situation, his calmness and courage make Nan Qiao feel that he is not an ordinary child.

The wisdom and maturity revealed in his eyes far exceed his age.

That innate nobility seems to be a brilliant light hidden under the ordinary appearance, which cannot be ignored.

Nan Qiao thought to himself, this little boy is not an ordinary person!

The two were silent when suddenly, a burst of hurried footsteps could be heard. Nan Qiao and the little boy were startled at the same time and turned to look. They saw a bandit with a fierce face and a big knife chasing after them.

The little boy's expression instantly became extremely serious, and he whispered, "Not good! The other party should have reached the seventh level of Qi Refining."

He quickly turned to Nan Qiao, his eyes full of determination, "You leave quickly! I'll cover your retreat."

The little boy straightened his small body, trembling slightly. He clenched his fists, but his small body revealed endless courage.

The dark blue coarse cloth clothes fluttered gently in the wind. His eyes were fixed on the bandits who were approaching step by step, without any intention of retreating.

Nan Qiao stood there, her feet as if rooted to the spot. She couldn't just abandon the little boy and run away alone.

The bandit approached step by step, and when he saw the two of them, an extremely obscene smile appeared on his face.

His eyes moved back and forth between Nan Qiao and the little boy, as if he was sizing up his prey.

"Haha, neither of you can escape." The bandit's voice was rough and evil, full of pride.

The little boy turned around and saw that Nan Qiao didn't run away. The determination in his eyes was instantly replaced by despair.

His voice trembled slightly. "Why didn't you run? We're finished. We're all going to die here today!"
