Chapter 121: Gathering in the Eastern Capital
Alicia?
Hearing the little girl's self-introduction on the other side of the phone, Jiang Mu was slightly stunned, and then smiled: "It turns out that you are Alicia, I know you, your father often shows us your photos." ”
"Really?" As soon as she heard the other party say that she knew herself, the innocent Alicia looked very happy.
"yes, let your dad answer the phone, I have a job to look for him."
"Uh-huh, okay." Alicia hummed, put down the phone, turned around and heard the sound of a thud and a thrott, and let out a crisp shout as she ran: "Dad, someone is looking for you......"
After a while, Hughes's voice came, "Hey, you're ...... Oh, Mr. Jiang Mu, do you have anything to do with me? ”
Jiang Mu said straight to the point: "Mr. Hughes has already been to the National Central Library in Central City, did he find some clues in it?" For example, a record of the bloodshed that has occurred on the border since the founding of the country? ”
Houston paused for a moment, lowered his voice and said in surprise: "How do you know this?" ”
Since returning from the Eastern Capital last time, Hughes has investigated the hunt for the national alchemist by Scar the Face, and as the investigation deepens, he discovers that all the fingers are gradually pointing to the Ishvar War many years ago, and as he continues to look through the materials in the National Central Library, he unexpectedly discovers a shocking secret.
Since the founding of the Amestolis, there have been countless conflicts on the border of Amestolius in the past few hundred years.
Of course, conflicts between countries are natural and unavoidable, after all, every country has its own interests, and it is absolutely impossible to get along peacefully, but with his investigation, he found that many conflicts are actually meaningless, and even some people feel that they are deliberately picking quarrels and provoking trouble, as if they are fighting for the sake of war.
This is clearly not in line with the interests of the state.
And behind these large-scale bloodsheds, there seems to be involvement within the military.
Hughes vaguely sensed that in the context of his own unbeknownst knowledge, a certain network was being woven within the military, consciously or unconsciously.
"Because of the ...... of the formation"
"Wait a minute, it's not convenient for me to talk here, I'll contact you when I'm outside." Before Jiang Mu's words were finished, Hughes interrupted his words.
Jiang Mu thought about it for a while, and remembered that in the original book, Hughes was killed in the phone booth by the android Enwei during the call with Mastan because of the leaked news. Although Envi has now been killed by himself, there may be other androids popping up.
"Hughes, stop your investigation first, and don't contact me, your current situation is very dangerous, while the other party has not yet shifted his attention to you, get out of the whirlpool as soon as possible."
Hughes was stunned and asked suspiciously, "Does Mr. Jiang Mu know what the situation is?" ”
"Yes, so you settle down for a while, find something else to do, hide the other party's detection for the time being, and wait until next month to find a reason to come to the Eastern Capital, and then I will tell you what I know."
Hughes didn't hesitate, nodded and said, "Okay, just do as you say, and take advantage of this time to give myself a vacation and accompany Alicia and them." ”
"By the way, how is Nina doing now?" Ending a topic, Jiang Mu asked about Nina's situation.
Since recovering, Nina has been adopted by Hughes.
Speaking of his adopted daughter, Hughes, who has a heavy daughter control, turned his head and put aside the previous troubles, laughed and said: "Nina is living well in my family now, Alicia also likes this sister very much, and after a while, I want to arrange for them to enter the school to receive education." ”
"Well, Nina is doing well, then we'll see you in a month."
Simply ending the call, Jiang Mu looked at the blue sky, the corners of his mouth slightly hooked.
At this time, the clear blue sky seems to have just been cleaned, pure and transparent, and it seems spotless, only 10,000 meters high in the air floating white clouds, changing different shapes with the breeze.
Time passed in a hurry, and a month passed in the blink of an eye.
Amestolis, the eastern capital.
"Edward, be careful, you are so rude, don't break the mechanical armor I installed for you again." A nice voice came, a blonde girl with a backpack on her back, stamping her feet and shouting angrily at the teenager in front of her.
"You're really verbose, anyway, if it's broken, you can fix it for me." Edward turned and waved nonchalantly.
"I don't have that much time to mess around with you."
The blonde girl stared at her eyes and puffed.
"Wen Li, don't be angry, my brother is this character." Alphonse the Armor Man explained for Edward.
Wen Lijiao snorted and snorted: "Edward, that idiot, three days and two troubles, it didn't take long for a good mechanical armor to break, and I won't help him in the future, by the way, Al, is there any more famous mechanical armor store in Dongdu, take me to see it." ”
"Well, you come with me......"
Alphonse glanced at Edward's side, then led Wen Li towards the nearby mechanical armor shop.
"Al, is that person named Jiang Mu really powerful, what is the matter with him calling you over?" Coming out of the mechanical armor store, Wen Li, who was feasting her eyes, asked the question in her heart.
Alphonse thought for a moment, shook his head and said, "I don't know, but Jiang Mu is very powerful, listen to what Mastan Dazuo said...... He had recently completed a remarkable refinement, but I don't know exactly what it was. ”
Regarding the matter of Nina's body and human body refining, except for a few people in the office of Dongdu Mastan at that time, only the secret agents placed in the military knew what happened. Mastan knew that the matter was very important, and he had instructed everyone not to mention it lightly, so Alphonse didn't know that Jiang Mu had completed the human body refining.
"Oh."
Wen Li nodded, she was not an alchemist in the first place, if it weren't for the Edward brothers, she wouldn't be interested in this area, and when she heard Alphonse say that she didn't know, she didn't think much about it, and turned her attention to something else.
Eastern Command, the office of Mastan.
At this time, Hughes and Armstrong both rushed over from Central City for work.
The entire office was filled with Mastan's cronies and men.
"Hughes, tell me more about your findings." Mastan stamped his feet, and his whole body was very haggard.
Hughes nodded, edited all the bloodshed since the founding of Amestories, and then marked the map on the wall, and soon, a key point with Amsteris as a circle was displayed on the map.
Many of the people present were alchemists, even if they were not national alchemists, but they all had a little common sense of alchemy, and they all frowned when they watched Hughes constantly mark on the map.
"These points seem to constitute a refining array."
Circles and lines are the basis of the formation array, and each fulcrum plays the role of building the whole system.
Because there are thousands of formulas in alchemy, each formula has a corresponding alchemy array, plus some other compound, nested and combined alchemy array variants, the complexity is simply dazzling, and there are countless kinds of alchemy arrays that look similar, so even a professional alchemist does not dare to say that he knows all the alchemy arrays.
There was a loud "pop", and just then the door was rudely kicked open. Edward walked in with a big grin, followed by Alphonse and Winley.
Seeing everyone looking at the map on the wall, Edward couldn't help but look up, and when he saw the circled places on the map, his expression couldn't help but be stunned. He sat down on the couch, cross-legged, chin in his hands, and on the map, Edward's face showed a thoughtful expression.
After a while, he asked with a gloomy face, "What's the matter with these red circles?" ”
"Edward, do you know what kind of refining array this is?"
Mastan looked back at him and asked curiously.
Edward grimaced a cold face, gritted his teeth, and said, "That's the human body refining array." ”
The human body is refining into a formation?
Mastan's brow furrowed.
When Edward said this, the others also reacted, and when they looked closely, they all gasped.
Isn't it the human body refining array that is marked on this map!
