Chapter 56: The Wisdom of Mortals

Ah Xu thought that Qin Mei was 13 seconds from the beginning of the refining formation after drawing the refining array, but he never expected that he still underestimated Qin Mei - she only took 13 seconds in total after Ah Xu asked him to start refining the dimensional gate.

Without refining into a formation, Ah Xu didn't even see Kotomi make any moves, and a complete dimensional gate appeared in front of Ah Xu—by the way, Kotomi spent an extra 5 seconds refining into a small generator set to provide energy for the dimensional gate.

"You've seen that door!?" Ash, Edward, and Izmi all changed their faces.

Isn't this kind of refining that doesn't need to be formed into an array that you only have after seeing the Gate of Truth?

This is a forbidden technique, although after Ah Xu's explanation, Edward, Alphonse and Izmi have all been redeemed and no longer blame themselves for their past sins, but through the door of truth, you have to pay the travel fee, so what kind of price did Kotomi cost?

Ah Xu looked at Ryoko Asakura with an inquiring gaze, although Kotomi thought Ah Xu was her father, but her mother still didn't know whether she was dead or alive, could it be that Kotomi tried to become a mother?

Ryoko Asakura shook her head, she didn't understand alchemy, and she didn't know what was wrong with Kotomi.

"What door?" Instead, Kotomi asked Ah Xu suspiciously.

"After the human body is refined, you will see a door, which is called the Gate of Truth, and after seeing that door and coming back alive, your brain will be instilled with some knowledge of alchemy, and you can use alchemy directly without the need to form a formation...... But there will also be a heavy price to pay! Ah Xuan explained, and then asked Qin Mei seriously, "Did you use the human body to refine it?" ”

Kotomi shook her head and replied, "No." ”

Now Ah Xuan and the others were even more surprised, no? If she hadn't seen that door, then why didn't she need to form a formation to use alchemy?

And Kotomi was also surprised by the door of truth described by Edward and others: "Truth is people's correct reflection of objective things and laws, it exists objectively, and it is not transferred by human will. ”

Ah Xuan frowned and pondered, and then his brows stretched out, and suddenly brightened.

"I see." Ah Xu said, "This is like the laws of mechanics discovered and summarized by Newton, which did not exist after he summed it up, but an objective law that has always existed in this world, and it was only when he was summed up that it was summarized." Edward, they just didn't find it, but they found a super tutor - the Door of Truth, the Door of Truth instilled those formulas directly into them, they knew the formula, even if they didn't understand why the formula was, but this formula is an objective phenomenon for the world, and when they encounter problems, they just need to fill in the answers with this formula. ”

"However, it costs money to hire a tutor, which is also known as tolls. The more powerful the tutor and the more things he teaches, the higher the price will naturally be. And Kotomi ...... It is equivalent to learning from the beginning of OnePlus, and reasoning and summarizing the objective phenomena of the world along the way. In terms of understanding formulas, how can Edward and Izmi, who were crammed for education, be on a par with Kotomi, who pushed the formula from scratch to the full version? Therefore, it is natural that the kotomi are more relaxed and freehand than they are to use. ”

After listening to Ah Xu's detailed explanation, Tsuruya also understood, clapped his hands, and said: "It's much simpler for you to say that, to put it bluntly, it's Edward who bought the answer, and Kotomi made it herself." Although the results may seem similar on the surface, in terms of real materials, they can't be compared to Kotomi at all. ”

Edward: They are very good because they were able to see the door of truth (buy answers to cheat) and come back alive (without being caught by the proctor). At the same time, it cannot be denied that they are geniuses, after all, the answer is only given to formulas, and it is they who understand and use these formulas.

However, if in this world of alchemists, they are geniuses, then Kotomi is the top student among geniuses.

You don't understand the world of scholars.

"O mortal wisdom." Ah Xu sighed sincerely, and he didn't believe that Qinmei would be his daughter, how could this monster with an IQ as high as 1800 be born by him, a "human" who was only 180 at best?

"I'm sorry, but it's not against you." Ah Xuan turned to Edward and Izmi and said, but then he added, "I mean, all the alchemists in this world are mortal wisdom!" ”

Edward held back for a long time before he finally had time to interject: "I don't understand what you're saying. What are the laws of mechanics? And who was Newton? Is he a great alchemist? ”

This world also has this basic law that constitutes the world, and it has been discovered, but the name is not necessarily the law of mechanics. As for Newton, it doesn't exist anymore.

"Newton, if measured by the standards of an alchemist, was a very powerful and great alchemist, who discovered and summed up a system of alchemy, which is the basis of the world, and which is included in the textbooks of our students. I don't know him, I don't know his system, and I'm basically the same as being illiterate. Regardless of nationality or race, it is a compulsory test for every student when they go to school. He has a world-resounding title: Alchemist of Force! ”

Edward was also a man of adventure and research, and after listening to Ah Xu's words, he suddenly had a fascination for Newton, whom he had never met.

"When the affairs of the country are dealt with and Alphonse's body is recovered, I must visit him at your place!" Edward said.

Ah Xuan shook his head regretfully, looked out the window, and had a sad expression: "But he has been dead for a long time." ”

The faces of Edward, Mark, Izmi and the others suddenly became solemn, and they also said with regret: "It's a pity. ”

And the SOS group who know the inside story, except for Ayanami and Artoria, who don't know who Newton is, everyone else is embarrassed, and there is a feeling of "complain and you will lose".

After giving Ayanami a few final instructions, Ryoko Asakura, Black Cat, Ayana, and Yuki Nagato went back through the portal.

Edward saw that a few people just walked into the machine and then disappeared completely, and asked Ah Xu curiously, Ah Xu said: "This is space-time alchemy, and one of our titles is Qinmei is the alchemist of space-time." ”

Edward was shocked, he didn't expect that the alchemy on Ah Xu's side had developed to such a terrifying level, but why had he never heard of it?

So my heart was more and more full of infinite admiration for Ah Xu's side.

"When did Kotomi have this title!" The bored Tsuruya whispered to Ah Xu, and Ah Xuan replied, "A few seconds ago." ”

"This alchemy is so convenient! I'm afraid your cars and trains have been eliminated, right? By the way, then why don't we use this to find Brother Scar's notes? Edward groped around the dimensional gates, but the instruments inside were so sophisticated that he couldn't even understand what the material was.

"This consumption is very large, and it is only suitable for long-distance travel, which is not cost-effective for this short distance." In fact, this is an interdimensional travel tool, not a spatial mobility tool, and even if he knew where Scar's brother's notes were, he didn't do it.

Ah Xuan didn't know what the time difference between the two worlds was, and he didn't know when Ayanami would come back, because this was a real war, and he told Ayanami to be ready, and the reinforcements would not come back for a while.

So he decided that the people on his side would go directly to Brother Scar's notes first, and instructed Ayanami to be stationed here first when he came here, and if there was anything, he would be improvised.

He left the Hughes family and Nina here to watch the door, as a response, waiting for the arrival of the Ayanami ship mother's army - Hugh Tucker's house has been sealed because of his affairs, and no one will come, but just in case, Ah Xu still has to leave someone to guard. Another function of this dimensional gate is to locate it over there.

In order to prevent accidental opening, or being taken away by someone else, Kotomi removed the energy system, leaving only the energy required for the most basic positioning, and added a self-destruct device.

Hughes is not hypocritical, he knows that his skills are completely inadequate for this war, and Ah Xu's trust in him to leave such an important facility in his care.

"Don't worry, as long as I live, I will definitely guarantee the safety here!" Hughes patted his chest and assured Ah Xu, although he had only known each other for a day, Ah Shen saved his most important wife and daughter from the most dangerous place, and on this basis, he Hughes was willing to sell his life to Ah Xu.

Mr. and Mrs. Izmi and Mark were also left behind as fighting forces other than prevention.

After all the things were arranged, Ah Xu took Kotomi, Tsuruya, Artoria, Edward, Alphons, and Hughes to form a super battle team and go north to find Hughes's brother's notes.

"Do you still want to take her with you?" Seeing that Ah Xu was still carrying the spring of the cool palace, Tsuruya asked.

Haruhi Suzumiya was unconscious at this time, and they were not guaranteed to be safe on this trip, so she thought it might be better to leave Haruhi Suzumiya behind.

"Although it has changed from a mobile version to a landline version, it can still be used." Ah Xu still has an unused philosopher's stone in his hand, even if Hasuga is unconscious, he can still use her strength, "Besides, I am the safest by my side, and I can rest assured that she is by my side." ”

For Ah Xu's brazen self-confidence, Tsuruya squinted his eyes and chuckled.

"Where do we go next?" Edward asked, a group of them who were wanted and couldn't make the train.

Now that he knows Qinmei's alchemy attainments, Ah Xu directly asked Qinmei to refine an armored car.

"Okay......" Kotomi nodded in agreement, and after ten seconds, she asked Ah Xu suspiciously: "Dad, what is the structure of the armored car?" ”

The structure that Kotomi is talking about is definitely not just the appearance, but the internal structure.

Ah Xuan looked at Edward, and Edward shook his head violently: "Don't look at me, I don't know." "Even if he is called an alchemist of Fullsteel, even if he is a lackey of the military, he has never dismantled an armored car to play.

Ah Xu looked at him with disdain, and just as he was about to consider other methods, Tsuruya patted his chest muscles and said, "I know this!" ”

Ah Xu also wondered how Tsuruya knew about the structure of the armored car, and Tsuruya had already talked to Kotomi about the armored car.
