Chapter 10: The Fog

Letting the girl come to his side can be said to be a good move for the bishop. Although he already possessed the legendary Alchemy Amplification Item, the Philosopher's Stone, he was still well aware of his own strength, and knew that he was no match for the two Edward brothers.

Not to mention the younger brother Alphonse in huge armor, just an older brother. Although extremely short, he was a man who had become a national alchemist at the age of twelve. The so-called national alchemist is not an achievement that can be achieved by anyone who can use alchemy.

Although the national alchemist is able to enjoy privileges that ordinary people cannot enjoy in peacetime, he has an extremely generous alchemy research allowance, and even those who face the military enjoy the treatment of the rank of major. It can be said that he is a truly privileged person in this country.

But this is not to say that state alchemists are just people who have rights and do not need to pay any obligations, they all belong directly under the presidential banner and go to the battlefield in the event of war. In other words, the alchemists of these countries are humanoid war machines that are paid for by the state and will be used in the event of war.

And Edward, the man who had become the alchemist of the state at the age of twelve, could not be taken lightly no matter how he looked at it. He is more than capable of beating himself in a one-on-one situation.

But now......

The corners of the bishop's mouth curled up as he looked at the girl standing beside him with a dull face. Although these two brothers are strong, their hearts are still too soft, even if they are a person who meets each other, as long as they are held hostage, they will subconsciously relax the strength of their attack. And now, I can say that I am invincible!

What was happening in front of him made the bishop extremely satisfied, and he smiled a little at his disciple, the girl named Rosa. Anyway, as long as the two Edward brothers are solved, this woman will have no use value. When the time comes, it is appropriate and convenient to solve it together, or let her sleep forever.

Come to think of this. The bishop's tone became lighter. I saw him take a step back and stretch out his right hand to the wall behind him.

In the blink of an eye, a wooden handle appeared in the bishop's hand. He sneered and pulled down, and a cacophony of noise rang out instantly.

Liu Mengchao, who was standing on a high place, took in all of this. The place that should have been a wall suddenly and slowly rose upwards, and a low roar came from behind the door. In Liu Mengchao's eagle vision, it can be seen that this is represented by red points of light.

In other words......

This is his own enemy, or at least hostile to his own group......

Beast.

With a lion-like face, it is estimated that he wants to use the bite force of the lion's mouth. The two front legs are extremely short, and if you look closely, you can see that these legs are those of a brown bear from the wild. And his hind legs are two claws. If Liu Mengchao is not mistaken, it should be the claws of the eagle. Finally, we turn our attention to the lion's tail, which is the tail of a lizard, which is more powerful than the lion's tail and extremely large.

"This Philosopher's Stone is truly an amazing thing, to be able to make such a thing!" The bishop sneered and said, "First time, right? It's the first time you've seen a synth! ”

Looking at the Edward brothers, who had not spoken, the bishop triumphantly introduced his thugs. I have to say that this synthetic beast is both powerful and full of terrifying bloodlust no matter how you look at it. Liu Mengchao is far away from this lion. You can smell the bloody smell coming from this lion.

"Die!"

The bishop screamed.

The two Edward brothers turned their heads in unison, squinting at the synth. As a younger brother, Alphonse has no expression because he is covered in armor, but for Edward, who is an older brother, he seems to be able to represent himself and his younger brother.

I saw the corners of his mouth twitch. His eyes slanted, and his whole body was full of indescribable speechlessness and contempt.

"Playing with him with bare hands like this will probably be harder."

As he spoke, Edward's hands snapped appropriately. The whole person slowly squatted down and pressed his hands to the ground.

"Could it be that he is using alchemy? However, the alchemy array was not used...... No, I guess I engraved the refining array on my hand, right? The bishop subconsciously guessed.

Edward did not give the bishop an answer. He just pressed his hands to the ground slowly, and then the five fingers of his left hand bent sharply, as if there was an indescribable attraction in the palm, and slowly pulled it upward.

A spear was slowly pulled out of the ground by Edward as if it had fallen into the water and then been drawn out.

It's a weird pattern, because Edward doesn't have a pool of water in front of him, but a hard ground. However, all this seemed to be familiar to Alphonse and Edward, who saw Edward holding the bottom end of the spear in his right hand, and then turned to one side, and directly poked out the spear in his hand and aimed it at the bishop in front of him.

"I didn't expect you to be able to directly train into items without using the refining array. The national alchemist really deserves his reputation! But you're naïve! How could a man beat a beast! ”

The Bishop laughed wildly, and the synths on the ground seemed to suddenly understand the Bishop's orders. I saw his two eagle-like hind legs kick on the ground, followed by the front legs that fused with bear paws, and suddenly rushed towards Edward.

Everything was so fast, it was like lightning and thunder.

However, the bishop overlooked one thing, although he took Rosa as his hostage and let the two Edward brothers throw into the mouse, but they were not the only four of them in the scene.

There was also one person who watched the whole show from start to finish. He saw clearly who was his target, and he also knew what the Philosopher's Stone really looked like. ,

In other words, this person who has been hidden from beginning to end is like a careful and cautious hunter, waiting for the moment when his prey will reveal its flaws.

And now, it's time for the flaws to appear.

"Watching Brother Edward fight the Synth with a playful mood is the time when he lets his guard down the most, and that's when I should show up."

Thinking of this, Liu Mengchao's hands no longer hesitated, his palms slowly joined together, and then quietly leaned forward.

One of the great principles of alchemy is equivalent exchange. In order to refine another item, it is necessary to prepare another substance that is identical to the crafting item in advance.

But Liu Mengchao seems to have violated this principle, he just kept his hands in mid-air and touched the air.

And then...... The fog appeared.

The whole world, you can't see your fingers. (To be continued......)
