"How's it going?"

Earnest walked into the laboratory, looked at the dazzling array of instruments in front of him, and asked the goth girl who was busy with her work.

"With the resources you've provided, we're halfway there."

Dotya wiped the sweat oozing from her forehead, and a satisfied smile appeared on her face, "As long as you give me another ten days, I can refine this 'Philosopher's Stone'!" ”

"The Philosopher's Stone is equivalent to the second life."

Dotea clenched her fists slightly, looking full of confidence, "Whether you are killed by a knife or spear, poisoned by a curse, or sick or sick, the Philosopher's Stone can give you a chance to be resurrected and resurrected, it is the crystallization of pure vitality, and it is also the greatest invention in alchemy." ”

"But it also takes a lot of human life because of it, ah, it's pathetic."

As he said this, a happy smile appeared on the minister's face.

With the Philosopher's Stone that was about to be refined, he at least had the possibility of escaping from under Ryuxia's hands.

"Don't rejoice too soon."

Dotya shrugged her shoulders and said helplessly: "In the case of not being able to confirm what means he used, you only have one more life with the help of the Philosopher's Stone, which does not mean that you can escape control." ”

"The old man knows."

Earnest stroked his beard, an inexplicable smile appeared on his face, "Before the refining of the Philosopher's Stone is completed, the old man does not plan to walk out of this ground, and when the Philosopher's Stone is completed, then the old man only needs to die in front of him once, and he can disappear from his eyes." ”

"Then the old man was resurrected with the help of the Philosopher's Stone, and he can still control the country in secret."

He was basically faking his death, no, he was actually dead, but with the power of the Philosopher's Stone, he could be resurrected again.

As long as he does it properly, he can use death to escape Ryuxia's sight, and turn the completely passive situation around, not to mention whether he can clash with Ryuxia head-on after that, but at least he doesn't have to be threatened by the other party all the time.

There is no way to do it.

"Even if your son dies, you don't care?"

Dotea glanced at Earnest and asked casually.

"It's okay to have a son again."

Earnest didn't see the slightest sadness on his face, but said disapprovingly: "It's just that I didn't expect that the wild hound I specially helped him set up couldn't even delay time, it's really a waste." ”

Dotya glanced at him vaguely, and secretly sighed in his heart for his ruthlessness.

Sheila and the wild hounds under his command, in Ornest's heart, are actually used to attract Ryuxia's attention, no matter what, it is also a lineup of all the emperors, and it is not much worse than the hunters, there is no need to delay for long, as long as the Philosopher's Stone is completed, so that he can return to the surface.

As a result, he didn't expect that the wild hound would become extinct in one night so indifferently that he would now have to think of other ways to attract Ryuxia's attention.

In fact, he didn't need to think about these methods, and after sending Ryuxia to an island thousands of miles away through Shangri-La, Earnest was already refining the Philosopher's Stone.

According to his idea, he planned to trap Ryuxia on the island until the refining of the Philosopher's Stone was completed, and the formation of the Wild Hound was only a backup in case the island could not trap Ryuxia.

But Sheila, the bastard, secretly had the idea of 'getting a way to control Earnest from Lusha', and teleported them back the next day, and when he knew, he almost didn't tear Sylla's hand.

This turtle son doesn't look at how many catties and taels he has, and even his Lao Tzu can't please him in the process of confronting the other party, let alone him?

The result? Two days after the other party returned, he died.

With it, the entire wild hound was killed by the other party, and only Doteya, who had been here to help him refine the Philosopher's Stone, escaped with his life.

This cheating daddy's turtle son.

Earnest suppressed the resentment in his heart for Silly Fork's son and asked about something else.

"By the way, how is the transformation of the [Supreme Emperor Gu] going?"

There are two tasks he commissioned Dotteya to carry out, one is to refine the Philosopher's Stone, and the other is to transform the [Supreme Emperor Tool].

"Hmph, in this world, no one can surpass me in terms of alchemy talent!"

Doteya crossed her hands on her hips, her face showed a smug look, and the pink bow dangled on the top of her head, "Don't worry, the weakness of the [Supreme Emperor Gu] has been repaired by me, and the current Supreme Emperor Gu is absolutely invincible!" No matter what kind of necromancy, night attack, or resistance army, or revolutionary army, it is impossible to be the opponent of the Supreme Emperor! ”

"Oh! Pretty! ”

Earnest perked up, and the smile on his face quickly brightened.

His gaze crossed Doteja and landed not far away on the great steel creation.

It was the true pillar of the empire's rule that had been maintained for thousands of years, a symbol of absolute oppression and dominance, immortal for thousands of years, and possessing a terrifying power comparable to that of the gods.

The first and strongest, and also the supreme emperor!

This is the underground of the Royal Palace.

Although there have been rumors about the Supreme Emperor in the outside world, no one knows that the Supreme Emperor is actually stored underground in the palace.

This is a top-secret place that can only be entered by the little emperor himself as a guide, and only a few people such as the little emperor and Earnest know about it.

Even Ryuxia, who was scouting information through birds, would not know about the existence of this place, and even if the other party knew, it would be impossible to enter this place without the little emperor as a guide.

Therefore, the minister can rest assured that he can hide here and wait for Doteya to finish refining the Philosopher's Stone.

Of course, it's not like it's unattended.

The little emperor didn't understand policy, and he didn't know how to deal with most of the courtiers' requests, and the only person he trusted the most was the minister, so he often came to listen to the minister's opinion with the courtiers' recitals.

Today is no exception, the little emperor walked into this underground secret room with an ignorant and innocent expression.

No one noticed that on the hem of the little emperor's cloak, there was a small black spider lying there, and after entering this secret room, it immediately fell from the cloak and hid in this extremely wide secret room.

Although most magicians like to use birds as magicians, spiders and other insects are also popular with magicians because of their small size and ease of operation.

A demon like a spider, even a magician with average qualifications, can control dozens or hundreds of them at will, but in the case of Ryuxia, because of the huge amount of magic, it is not a problem to control a few hundred.

Although spiders have limited vision and hearing, and their intelligence skills are not as good as birds, they are the most convenient to find objects and secret rooms based on their size and number.
