Chapter 104: Amestolis
To be honest, Jiang Mu is also very interested in the plan secretly carried out by the villain "Holmonx" in the bottle.
He thought for a moment, then waved his hand casually at the truth, and said with a smile: "Don't worry, I'll watch him, that guy's plan may be of unexpected use to me." ”
Truth was stunned for a moment and said with a smile: "Whatever you do, the matter is up to you anyway." ”
Like Jiang Mu, the truth did not take the villain in the bottle to heart, and tried in vain to occupy the position of a god with a mortal body, and in the eyes of the truth, Holmenx's conspiracy was like a kindergarten child making a small fuss there, and it was destined to fail.
Next, after explaining, the truth opened the door to the outside world, Jiang Mu waved his hand, stepped forward, and his figure gradually became blurred.
……
The illusory scene in front of him flashed, and in the blink of an eye, Jiang Mu appeared on a busy street. The pedestrians around were weaving, constantly coming and going, and the strange thing was that they were so familiar with Jiang Mu's sudden appearance that they didn't seem to realize that there was suddenly an extra person on the street.
Jiang Mu nodded slightly, and after waiting for a while, he felt a brief pause around him, and soon, the people around him saw that there was an extra person in front of him, and they all bypassed him.
"Where is this?"
Jiang Mu began to look at the surrounding environment: on both sides of the road are not very high four-story buildings, in the distance, you can also see the towering city wall several kilometers away, more than 30 meters of city towers like a long snake around the city, combined with the city's architectural style, immediately let Jiang Mu have the illusion of returning to the Middle Ages, but the carriages and steam locomotives on both sides look very advanced.
There were also many policemen patrolling the street, and from the dark blue military uniforms on their bodies, Jiang Mu judged that the country he was in now was Amestorius, a country that was not particularly large.
The development process of civilization in the world of "Fullmetal Alchemist" is different from that of the earth, because of the vigorous development of alchemy, many things that are contrary to the laws of historical development appeared very early.
If you have to compare it to Earth, the level of technology here is roughly equivalent to that of the Earth before World War I. Of course, there is also the alchemy that the earth says it does not have.
Jiang Mu walked on the street, and the pedestrians around him cast strange glances at him one by one.
With a pat on the head, he realized that his modern attire was really standing out from the crowd here.
Raising his head and glancing at the blue sky, white clouds floating leisurely in the air, Jiang Mu walked to an uninhabited alley, and then put his hands together, alchemy was automatically launched, and a set of clothes on his body were re-refined, and the clothes became more similar to the style of this world, and at the same time, he also picked up a piece of scrap iron and refined it into gold.
With a chuckle on the corner of his mouth, Jiang Mu put the gold in his pocket and walked towards the hotel.
Next, he needed to determine where he was and how far he was from the central city of Amistolith.
……
The so-called alchemy is a scientific discipline based on the principle of "equivalent exchange", through the understanding, decomposition, and then construction of matter, and it is the top technology in the steel world. In the field of alchemy, there is one of the biggest "taboos", and that is "human body refining".
All those who violate this taboo are punished.
"Fullmetal Alchemist" begins with the brothers Edward Elric practicing alchemy because they miss their late mother, and finally suffer the punishment of the Gate of Truth for breaking the taboo, the elder brother Edward lost his left leg, and the younger brother Alphonse lost his entire body, in order to keep his brother's soul, Edward fixed his brother's soul to a pair of armor at the cost of his right arm.
In order to retrieve their original bodies, the two brothers embark on a journey to find the "Philosopher's Stone".
However, as the two brothers get closer and closer to the truth of the "Philosopher's Stone", they are constantly drawn into the whirlpool of huge conspiracies.
Jiang Mu knew the direction of the whole plot, but he didn't plan to change the plot too much, on the contrary, he wanted to use the advantages of the plot to achieve his goals. Because if the truth finally wants to break free from the shackles of this world and leave, it is not enough to just infiltrate this world, he also needs to replace the rules of this world and pull the "gods" of this world out of the place of origin.
Because of this, the villain in the bottle behind the scenes, Holmonx's practice of opening the "Pupil of Heaven", has become his need, so Jiang Mu is also waiting for the arrival of the appointed day.
Of course, he can't let everything go exactly according to the villain's plan, and he also needs to add a little bit of material in the whole process.
I don't know what kind of expression the final boss will look like when he thinks he is going to become the "god" of the new world, but finds out that everything is actually just making wedding clothes for others. As the truth goes, "give the arrogant a proper despair."
This is far more brutal than destroying the enemy.
As the final boss, Holmes has been hiding underground in Central City for hundreds of years, and his strength has reached the level of a two-star high-level, but even Holmens, who finally fused the power of "God" in the original book, is only a three-star beginner, and is far from being the opponent of Jiang Mu's three-star peak.
Thinking of this, Jiang Mujunlang's face couldn't help but show a slight smile, and then quickly disappeared into the vast sea of people.
Amestolis, Central City.
The whole of Amerstories is close to a circle, a state that has been perfected since the early days of the state, and the central city is located in the heart of Amerstories.
This is the geographical center of the whole country and the center of power of Amerstolis, and the whole city presents an octagonal geometric pattern centered on the presidential palace, radiating out in a circle, as if it had been planned since the day it was founded.
In the world of steelmaking, the "circle" represents the cycle of energy.
Amesteris was a militarized approach to management, with a tough and somewhat impersonal approach.
Among the many alchemists, a very small number of outstanding alchemists can obtain the title of "National Alchemist" after many mortal examinations.
Alchemists with the title of "National Alchemist" enjoy great privileges, in addition to a part of the annual research funds, they can also read a variety of special documents and use various state facilities for free, and their status is equivalent to that of the military major (major), which can be said to be a symbol of status and status.
But for some people, the title of "national alchemist" is filthy, it represents the lackeys of the military, who sometimes have to be sent by the military to carry out some dehumanizing wars, the most famous being the Ishvar War many years ago, which completely destroyed a nation.
A spacious government compound with a white building enclosure that is four or five stories high, surrounded by greenery and neat trees, with the flag of Amestolis hanging in the middle.
It was the political center of Amestolis, and most of the central officials worked here.
In the cramped office building, a group of staff in military uniforms nervously process documents from all over the country.
In the office next door, a young man in a military uniform buried his head and tapped his fingers on the table with a look of distress. Roy Mastan has been annoyed lately, and he is about to be transferred to Eastern Command, but he still has a mountain of paperwork on hand.
"Knock knock!"
There was a knock on the door in the room.
"Come in!" Mastan replied without raising his head, and after a while, a female officer with blonde hair walked in, holding a document in her hand.
It was Mastan's lieutenant - Lisa Hawke.
"Lisa, what's the matter?"
Lisa nodded and handed the document to Mastan, "This is a letter of introduction that I just transferred from Eastern Command. ”
"Put it down."
Hearing Lisa's words, Mastan glanced at her and said, then opened the letter and looked at it, his eyebrows wrinkled unconsciously, and then put the letter aside, and his fingers tapped on the table to think.
