Edward sat quietly on a log with his head in his hands.
"Edward, it's not your fault." Hohenheim looked at Edward with a complicated expression and spoke comfortingly.
Edward bowed his head and was silent, his voice low and depressed: "Until today, I don't know what Cologne is doing in Leol!" If I hadn't made him, how could there be such a catastrophe? β
Hoinheim laughed self-deprecatingly: "Edward, if you really want to be held accountable, the responsibility lies with me." β
Edward raised his head in surprise when he heard this: "Although I know that you are very irresponsible, you don't have to bear my fault." β
Hoinheim smiled wryly. The accusations against his own son cannot be refuted. Whatever the reason, he did do the thing of abandoning his wife.
"If you knew my experience, you wouldn't think so."
Hohenheim continued, "You should have seen that old monster under Central City. Seeing his appearance, there is no guess. β
"His body is the villain in the bottle, Homon Cruise. Because of an accident, he was born out of my blood. Under his instigation, the king at that time launched the Territorial Refining Array. But it and I are the beneficiaries. It gave me an immortal body to keep me alive. I am a living philosopher's stone. It's me who leads to everything we are today! β
The crowd was shocked. Even the artificial Personality was shocked. Edward pointed at Hohenheim speechless.
He never imagined that his father would be an old monster who had lived for hundreds of years.
"Now he's building a new country and he's ready to do it again. As for the android you accidentally refined, I think it's probably because of my bloodline, right? β
Edward was like a deflated ball, dejected and silent.
"I don't know if he has any connection to Holmon Cruise. If the two of them join forces, it will be even harder for us to fight back! And we don't know anything about this Cologne. β
Edward lowered his head for a long time, and finally raised his head suddenly as if he had made up his mind: "No matter how difficult it is, you have to deal with it." The trouble we create, we will solve it! β
Alphonse nodded in agreement.
Hoinheim looked at his two sons who were full of energy with a relieved smile on his face.
But immediately, his smile disappeared. His eyes were fixed on the darkness in the distance, and he didn't say a word.
Glied jumped up from the spot, looking into the shadows in the distance.
"What's wrong with you?" Edward had a look of surprise on his face.
"Looks like something huge is coming!" Glied warned.
"Do you feel it? Why betray your father, Glied! Voices as if countless people were speaking at the same time came from all directions.
Sou!
A black shadow shot at me quickly. Glied jerked backwards, and a couple of backflips dodged three spike shots in a row.
The shadow pierced into the ground, and a stone along the path was struck by the shadow. Immediately it was divided into two halves without hindrance.
Glied stood still, looking solemnly at the shadows in the distance.
"Eat! Eat! Eat! A big fat man came out of the shadows, and his round eyes looked very innocent. But the hideous look on his face was chilling.
"It's gluttony!" Edward knew the android.
"It's not just him, there's another!" Glitter yelled nervously.
"What's that weird black shadow?" Edward also saw the dark shadows just now.
It looks like a shadow, but it's as sharp as a knife. Even a stone can be easily chopped if it pierces a person. Edward's heart chilled when he imagined it.
"He's Pride, the oldest android among us. It can be said that it is our older brother. Glitter looked around.
Shadows are everywhere in the night, and it seems that every darkness has a great threat.
"He has no concrete shape, just a shadow. However, he has a carrier, as long as he finds him, destroys the other party's carrier. You can deal with him! Glied hurriedly revealed what he knew.
This is indeed Pride's weakness. But it was pitch black all around, and they couldn't see at all, so how to deal with him?
Whoosh!
Several black shadows turned into sharp swords and shot out of the darkness quickly, heading towards Edward.
Edward's heart tightened, and his body quickly rolled over. Then roll on the spot. Then the right hand pressed the ground, and with the help of the powerful power of the mechanical armor, it supported the weight of the entire body and quickly bounced off the ground.
This almost instinctive sequence of actions flowed smoothly, almost instantaneously at the attack.
Edward's face changed dramatically when he looked back, black shadow spikes stuck into the ground, the nearest one was only a few centimeters away from his right foot! The swarthy strange blade flashed with light, and Edward took a few steps back in shock, shouting in his heart with a cry of rejoicing.
I thought that if I hadn't received some of Cologne's terrifying martial arts training, I would have to confess here! Thinking of Cologne now, Edward's heart became more and more entangled.
Dozens of black shadows stretched out from the darkness, spanning a distance of tens of meters. The shadow looks like a giant hedgehog. Pride misses the blow and makes a light "huh".
The shadow came and went as fast as it came, and it shrank back again in the blink of an eye.
But everyone present did not dare to take it lightly. The attack just now has made everyone realize the strangeness of the other party.
The severed Dao traces on the ground were enough for everyone to recognize his attack power.
"Extinguish the fire!" Glitter slammed his leg at the torch beside him.
A strong leg wind blew over the fire, and the raging flames seemed to be sucked away by something, and with a pop they all disappeared.
Edward's heart moved, and he immediately understood what Glid meant. The other party exists in the form of shadows, if there is no light. So how do you have a shadow?
Without waiting for Edward's movements, a red light flashed under Hoinheim's feet. With them at the center, darkness radiates quickly. In an instant, he cut off the power to the entire village.
"Hoinfheim?" Pride met Hohenheim for the first time, but was no stranger to him: "You forgot the moon in the sky!" β
The bright moonlight sprinkled the land, and the beautiful scenery on weekdays became the enemy's greatest weapon.
"Grab one first!"
The dark shadow abandoned the nimble Edward, and turned into countless black lines, like a moving rope, and quickly pounced on Alphons.
Alphonse's soul was fixed to the armor. All actions must be commanded by mental power. Actions are carried out as usual in peacetime, but in such high-intensity battles, weakness is immediately demonstrated.
The black shadow was swift, and Alphonse only escaped the capture of the black rope once before he was entangled in the legs and feet of the black shadow. Then the black shadow pounced, enveloping Alphonse in a cloud of black smoke.
The empty armor has become the best carrier of Pride!
"Al!" Edward let out a loud cry and quickly pounced on Alphonse.
His reaction was not unpleasant, but Hoinheim's was even faster. The red light fills the air. The whole earth trembled violently.
The ground softened, and walls of earth like lotus petals rose abruptly around it. With a bang, the earthy petals quickly closed, and in the blink of an eye, Alphonse and Pride were sealed in a confined space.
The sudden tremor made Edward's feet unsteady and he fell to the ground all of a sudden. When I saw the hemispherical space in the distance, I was shocked on the spot.
He didn't expect Hoinheim's strength to be so strong!
"Al!" Edward couldn't help but shout.
"I'm fine." A muffled voice came from the dirt bag. Edward breathed a sigh of relief.
"Pride!" A shrill cry suddenly rang out. Everyone reacted suddenly. In addition to the difficult Pride, there is also a Gratoni!
The big fat man Gratoni saw that Pride was caught, and quickly ran to the dirt bag.
"Stop him!" Glied rushed out.
He didn't want to let Pride out, who had been trapped so hard. In the face of the oldest android, even if he is as arrogant as he is, he has to be careful.
The palms of his hands quickly turned black and hardened, the five fingers were briefly elongated into sharp claws, and Glied approached Gratoni like lightning. The right hand was thrust into Gratoni's chest, where was the core of the other party!
As long as he grabs the core, he can devour the opponent with a special technique!
Laugh at!
The tip of the knife suddenly stabbed out of Gratoni's chest. Under the moonlight, the sword light became more and more sharp.
Glied was shocked, and it was too late to change his movements.
Clang!
Sparks fly. To Glitter's surprise, his sharp fingers and claws had no effect on the blade!
Not only that, but a strong force came from his hand. The knife under the fingers and claws is like a giant python that has come to life. The great force was vigorous, and it broke free from his hands in an instant. The blade stabbed Gratoni open his belly and stabbed him straight into the throat!
Glied's face changed dramatically.
Clang!
With a loud bang, a huge force instantly knocked Glid out of the air.
After staggering a few steps, after stabilizing your body. Glied couldn't help but touch his neck in excruciating pain. Shocked in his heart, he looked at Gratoni in shock.
The other party was split in half from the chest upwards. Blood-colored light kept coming from the breach, and Gratoni was trying to recover.
With the dazzling light, through the cracked halves of Gratoni's body, Glitter finally saw the figure of the comer.
A black trench coat, full of blonde hair, with his left hand in the pocket of his trench coat and a bloodstained waist knife in his right hand.
"Cologne?!" Edward exclaimed.
"Ed, long time no see." Su Zhong turned his head and smiled at Edward.
The goose feather knife in the right hand slashed out again. Gratoni, who had just recovered, was suddenly split in half by Su.
Everyone's faces couldn't help but twitch. Especially Greed, who is an artificial human.
"This is your father." Su Zhong looked at Hoinheim with interest. He could feel the huge aura of the other party. It's just that compared to the chaos and tyranny of androids, Hoinheim's breath is much calmer.
"Hello. I'm Hohenheim. Hohenheim also looked at Su Zhong with curiosity. He was equally curious about the android that his son had inadvertently refined.
"You're far worse than the one underground." Su Zhong could feel it clearly. Compared to the breathless momentum of Homon Cruise. The one in front of him is obviously much weaker.
"Cologne, what are you doing here?" After getting through the initial complications, Edward had to confront Suzhong.
"Of course they're here to kill." Su Zhong took a good time to cut off Gratoni's hands, leaving the other party busy recovering his body. The more you repair, the more energy you consume. The greater the energy consumed, the faster it will die.
After calculating the core of the Territory Refining Formation Formation and finding a way to deal with the androids, Su Chong finally began to cut off the androids!
Glied's face was not good-looking, regardless of his position. Gratoni is one of his kind. He opened his mouth to speak. Su Zhong was the first to turn his head to look at him.
"Don't worry, you'll be next." Su Chong said calmly. With a random wave of his right hand, he slashed off Gratoni's head with a single stroke.
Everyone's faces changed suddenlyγ.γ
