On the fourth day after the start of the war, Su Xiao arrived in a small town near Central City, where Mastan was stationed.

The train slowly stopped, and after Su Xiao stepped off the train, he found that Mastan had come to the station to greet him.

At this time, Mastan was no longer dressed as a colonel, and he took off his military rank.

"How's it going?"

Su Xiao asked about the situation bluntly.

"It's not very good, it's been two days of war with Central City, but it's not much progress."

"Huh?"

Su Xiao was a little puzzled, it stands to reason that with the strength of the Northern Army and the Mastan Army, it should be crushed in the face of the Central Army.

"Is it the ragtags who are holding back?"

"No, it's the Undead Legion."

Hearing the Undead Legion, Su Xiao nodded.

The Undead Legion is an invention of the Little Man in a Bottle, using the Philosopher's Stone to create bodies, fixing the souls of the innocent to those acquired bodies.

In this way, those bodies can fight and not die if they are injured, after all, their core is only a blood mark.

The only way to destroy the undead army is to destroy the blood seal, in addition to completely destroying the body.

However, the position of the blood marks is not fixed, some are on the head, some are on the chest and abdomen, and some are on the soles of the feet, and the position is completely random.

After seeing this kind of monster that could not be killed by guns, the morale of ordinary soldiers was damaged, and some miscellaneous troops even broke and fled.

"It's not without good information."

Mastan spoke.

"What?"

"More than 30% of the soldiers of the Central Army have surrendered, and many have fled with their families, and now the strength of the Central Army is less than 20%, and there is no fighting spirit."

Before the undead take the field, the Alliance forces engage the Central Army.

The Central Army was defeated, and these Central Army, stationed in Central City, were even more hasty than the Central Army in Kano Town.

In a small town not far from Central City, Su Xiao clearly heard the sound of cannons and gunfire in the distance.

The town is located 5 kilometers from the central city, and the two sides form a battle line at this distance.

Su Xiao looked out from the top of the town, and there were his own army and the undead army fighting on this front.

The undead army has a unique fighting style, they do not use firearms, but rely on their strong survivability, they carry bombs to charge their own troops, and then detonate them, killing and wounding both sides very badly.

According to Mastan's guess, the undead legion is controlled by someone, and the person who can control the undead legion is, of course, the villain in the bottle.

The number of the undead legions is unknown for the time being, and from the current situation, it seems that this must be a protracted war.

The defeat of Central City is already doomed, and the Union Army has surrounded Central City.

Seeing the situation at this moment, Su Xiao's face was full of smiles.

This is the result he wants to see, he doesn't care at all whether the Central Army is defeated or not, it is the best result to be able to surround Central City.

At this time, the central city was surrounded by groups, and there were only those people together, and the decisive battle began immediately.

Su Xiao and the others didn't let him wait long, only five hours passed.

……

In a bathhouse, Su Xiao soaked in a pool of warm water, with his back to the door.

Scars can be seen on his back, and knife wounds and gunshots are not uncommon.

The bathhouse was steaming, and there was a man near Su Xiao.

"Nice plan, if that's the case there is a chance to win."

The man who spoke was about forty or fifty years old, with long blond hair tied into a ponytail and glasses.

Von Hohenheim, father of the main character Edward.

It was von Hohenheim who took the initiative to find Su Xiao, perhaps it was Su Xiao's actions that attracted von Hohenheim's attention.

"So you said yes?"

"Yes, the villain in the bottle was born in my blood, and it is my duty to destroy him."

"It doesn't matter if you die?"

"It doesn't matter, in fact, I should have died a long time ago, and I am satisfied to leave a pair of heirs."

Von Hohenheim chuckled, his shirtless upper body muscles angular.

"How many Philosopher's Stones do you still have in your body?"

Su Xiao looked at von Hohenheim.

"Very few, dozens of servings."

"yes, it looks like you're pretty much done."

"Yes."

Von Hohenheim's body originally had hundreds of thousands of copies of the Philosopher's Stone, but now there are only a few dozen copies left.

"When does the decisive battle begin?"

Von Hohenheim let out a long sigh of relief.

"Now."

Bang!

The door to the bathhouse was kicked open, and Edward Elric rushed to the bathhouse.

As soon as he rushed into the bathhouse, Edward's footsteps stopped.

"Hohenheim, why are you here?"

Hohenheim didn't speak, seemingly unwilling to explain anything to Edward.

Glancing at Hohenheim, Edward finally looked at Su Xiao.

"What the hell are you doing, actually provoking a war of hundreds of thousands of people, do you know that many people have died!"

Edward was furious, he went to the battlefield himself, there was hell, there was the Shura field, and the soldiers there were no longer humans, but killing machines.

"How many people died? If memory serves, more than 100,000 people died. ”

Hearing Su Xiao's words, Edward was already furious.

"More than 100,000 people...... Is it true that human life is so worthless in your eyes, it is a living life? ”

"So what."

Su Xiao didn't turn around at all, since he had already made a decision, he had to bear the consequences, and justifying it was a sign of weakness.

It was indeed he who provoked the war, and he would admit to the hundreds of thousands of people who died.

Su Xiao stood up from the warm water, the people had already arrived, and it was time for the final battle.

"Are you going to start?"

Hohenheim had already thought about what was about to happen, and there was inevitably some excitement in his tone.

"Yes, the people on my side are ready, how about your side."

"You can go at any time."

"Then let's get started."

Water droplets dripped from Su Xiao's hair, and after putting on his clothes, Su Xiao walked out of the bathhouse.

"Edward, although this is not what a father should say, I still have to say it today......"

……

Three hours later, Su Xiao gathered in a conference room with Mastan, Olivia and others.

There were other people in the room.

The main character's master, Izmi Cadiz.

The younger brother of the main character, Alphonse Elric.

The father of the main character, von Hohenheim.

Olivia's younger brother, Alex Louis Armstrong.

Mastan's subordinate Hawkeye Lisa Hawke loves.

John Habke, a subordinate of Mastein.

There are more than a dozen people, and these people are the main force to deal with the villain in the bottle.

The final battle is about to begin, and Su Xiao will find all the people he can gather.

These people will not obey him, they just have a common purpose, to defeat the villain in the bottle.

Su Xiao spread out a map on the conference table, which was a detailed map of the central city.

"First of all, we have to find a way to get close to the presidential palace, which is here."

Su Xiao pointed to a point on the map, and everyone present did not speak.

"The little man in the bottle is just below the presidential palace, but you have to pass through the first laboratory underground, and below the first laboratory is the residence of the little man in the bottle, Alphonse Ellick has been there, remember the route?"

Everyone in the room looked at Alphonse.

"Yes."

Alphonse was a little nervous, and he knew what was about to happen.

Edward sat silent, defeating the villain in the bottle was something that had to be done.

"Very well, after arriving at the first laboratory, we will divide into three groups and combine before we reach the position of the villain in the bottle."
