Chapter 114: The Philosopher's Stone

Hearing Ai Qing's response, the legal commissioner laughed instead.

"I haven't heard that the Astronomical Society has any right-hand men in Shinkai!" the middle-aged man sneered, "Don't just send two cats and dogs to deal with it, we want results." ”

"Cat and dog?"

Ai Qingdi raised his eyebrows: "If you think that the sublimator who personally killed the international criminals of Green Day in the first week of joining the company, and pacified the turmoil of the people of the New Sea, is a cat and a dog, I can only say that Wanli is really full of talents, and the fifth order is like a cloud." ”

The legal commissioner was stunned for a moment, but he didn't expect Ai Qing's subordinates to have such a hard resume, and then looked at the manager with some suspicion: Is this woman framing me?

The manager seemed to remember something, couldn't help but wipe the sweat from his forehead, and quietly shook his head at the legal commissioner, signaling him not to dwell on this issue.

"Seems like you're skeptical about his abilities? It's normal, it's a seventeen-year-old after all. ”

Ai Qing's words seemed to expose her shortcomings, but it made the legal commissioner, who was originally a little hesitant, suddenly look harsh, but then, I heard her voice:

"But I have to say, while that guy has a good temper, he doesn't have a good temper...... Gentle. ”

As she spoke, Ai Qing stretched out her hand, took out a thick stack of reports from the wheelchair strap, and put it in front of the legal counsel.

It was a death report two fingers thick.

Or rather, the record is not exaggerated......

Even the terrifying results that elite seeds in various lineages that have tilted a lot of resources can hardly do, can be called bloody, especially the top three.

In addition to the Red Gloves, the current activist of the Green Day, it is the father and son who were once the big customers of Vannais...... Almost all of the family died at the hands of that guy, and it was less than a week later, when the guy was still in prison for interrogation.

Until now, the viaduct mentioned in the damage report has not been repaired!

Ai Qing asked thoughtfully, "If you really have any opinions on his investigation, why don't you say a few words to him in person......?"

"No more, no more!"

The legal officer struggled to take his eyes off the few tragic photos of the scene, and reluctantly squeezed out a smile.

"Then it seems that we have at least agreed on this matter. ”

Ai Qing bowed her head in satisfaction, "Just now you said you want the result, what a coincidence, I want it too." ”

As she spoke, her pen tapped on the record in front of her and smiled kindly, "But before that, we all have to figure out what we should be figuring out, right?"

Thus, the investigation continued.

.

.

In the evening, Huai Shi received a call from Ai Qing.

When he arrived apprehensively, Ai Qing seemed to have been waiting for a long time, sitting in the living room drinking black tea, looking calm and relaxed.

After Huai Shi entered the door, she glanced at it, motioned for Huai Shi to sit down, and lowered her head and drank tea.

After putting down the teacup, the first sentence made Huai Shi jump in fright.

"Looks like a rewarding one?"

"Uh...... What do you say?"

Huai Shidi's expression twitched, "I didn't hear clearly." ”

"Ah, that's probably my mistake. ”

Ai Qing pointed to the document on the table and pushed it over, Huai Shi picked it up and glanced at it, confused: "Action authorization letter?

"A few days ago, there was a vicious robbery in Xinhai, where a suspected Roman alchemist robbed the vault of the Renaissance Group and swept away tens of millions worth of goods......"

Where there are so many!

Huai Shi almost blurted out, endured it with all her might, and smiled hard: "Is it so excessive?"

"yes, so our astronomical society must investigate it to the end. ”

Ai Qing glanced at him and said, "I'll leave this matter to you." ”

"Uh......" Huai Shi hesitated: "What if I can't catch it?" cough cough, I mean, if I were a suspect, I would definitely run away with a vote, I can't look everywhere, right?"

"If you can't figure it out, you can't do it, report it to the headquarters, and then issue a reward, and it's over, I don't know how many of this kind of headless cases there are every year, it's not a big case, and I don't even have to arrange manpower. ”

Ai Qing said calmly: "It's just that you have a label that is unfavorable for doing things, and there is just one more stain on your resume." ”

"Just leave it to me. ”

Huai Shi quickly put away the authorization letter, and her voice was impassioned: "It is the bounden duty of every member of the Astronomical Society to crack down on criminals. ”

Unsullied?

Where does he care about this thing, just his resume, it's a stain for a long time, and he was demerit after killing Qi Wen last time, and he is not even an official registered employee now, and he doesn't want to be promoted, he is satisfied with rubbing this layer of skin.

"It's good to have faith. ”

Ai Qing calmly picked up the teacup and glanced at him, "It's just that from the point of mutual trust, both you and I have a long way to learn......"

Huai Shi pretended not to hear.

"Let's start by helping each other, how about it?" Ai Qing said suddenly.

"Huh?"

"Do you have any arrangements tonight?" Ai Qing asked, "For example, with which enthusiastic schoolgirl, or with the daughter of Director Fu's family, or with which lady you suddenly confessed? I don't want to disturb your two-person world." ”

"No!

Huai Shi shook his head like a rattle, hating himself for being innocent, how could he be like a demon in the eyes of others.

Once again, I feel the pain of being victimized!

"That's good. ”

Ai Qing nodded: "Let's go to the special affairs office to report later, you're going on a business trip." ”

"Huh?"

Huai Shi was stunned for a moment, and then was shocked: "Where are you going on a business trip?"

"It's not far, about five hours by sea. ”

Ai Qing calmly finished drinking the tea and put down the teacup: "Thanks to a certain suspect, there is no need to eat black, at least let me catch the sore feet of the Renaissance Group."

In order to be able to carry out business smoothly in Dongxia in the future, and in order to give an explanation to the Astronomical Society, the group of iron roosters held back tears and handed over a piece of information.

As far as they knew, a certain smuggling convoy had received a large order - a boat was carrying a border relic excavated from hell to be transported from Indonesia to the Russian Federation.

Our goal is to join forces with the Ombudsman and Operations Specialist of the other Astronomical Societies to stop this ship and bring it back. ”

"Frontier relics?"

Huai Shi was curious: "What kind of border relics?

"A piece of shard. ”

Ai Qing said, "A fragment of the Philosopher's Stone. ”

"What's that?"

Huai Shi's eyes widened, and she almost jumped up from her chair in disbelief.

.

.

Once, when Huai Shi had just become an ascendant, he had a discussion with the crow about the Philosopher's Stone.

After all, this thing is so famous, it really has to make people curious.

Besides, the crow is also quite good at alchemy, wouldn't she make a lot of money if she could do it?

In this regard, the crow is very calm.

"The Philosopher's Stone, although it is not common, is not so rare that it is rare for a thousand years. The crow replied, "There are probably hundreds of people who are active in the world today." ”

"Active?in the world??hundreds??"

"There are dead ones, but I know what your problem isβ€”yes, the Philosopher's Stone is a living person. In other words, only those who step on the pinnacle of their own stigma lineage and turn into prototypes can be called perfect things, the stone of sages. ”

This is the process of dividing the stages of the ascendant, gradually transforming into a miracle.

By the way, the crow also re-popularized the five stages of the sublimator for Huai Shi, and named the advanced map of the 'Fire Sword Path' in alchemy.

The first stage, mercury, needless to say.

The name of the first metal in alchemy is to describe its positioning as the basis for sublimation, and the essentia fertile soil completed by salt, sulfur and mercury can carry miracles.

The second stage, Gold, has already taken a crucial step in its own pedigree, determining the direction of the future, and the sublimator will be proficient in mastering the talents and abilities of the category and lineage, some of the prominent stigmata, and even possess all kinds of strange talent skills. Let's say the gargoyle's abomination eye......

The third stage, Aether, is already a change in bloodline.

If before that it was only a scaly claw, piecemeal reinforcement, now it is a strengthening from the inside out, as a whole.

The sublimator will completely transcend the limitations of human beings, and will be endowed with the essential blood of his own sublimation path, and his vitality will be incredibly strong.

It seems that the muscles are easy to change the marrow.

Just like the Naga of Holo and the Savior's Order, even if they are fired indiscriminately and sniper shots, even if they are blown into two pieces and only their heads are left, they can still retain their basic consciousness.

At this stage, under the fertile infusion of a large amount of life force, the soul of the sublimator will also begin to give birth to new changes, until the body and soul reach the boundary at the same time, and both will advance and step into the fourth stage, resulting in earth-shaking qualitative changes.

The fourth stage, Star Antimony, is completely different from the previous stage.

Not only the soul that has completed the transformation, but also the body that can already be called a humanoid Godzilla - the sublimation at this moment can be completely called a dragon, an angel, a fairy, a devil, a god son and other legendary creatures walking in the world.

And in their eyes, the world has become something else.

That is, the rumored 'transcendent vision' and 'soul vision' that are enough to pry the foundation of physics.

For things that are unimaginable to ordinary people, in their opinion, they may be able to achieve it by doing it. This is what ordinary people can usually imagine as a master, a master, a master, a master.

Further up, it is not a category that ordinary sublimators can access.

- Stage 5: The Philosopher's Stone.

Whether it is the White Emperor or the Xuanniao that Huai Shi has seen with his own eyes, he has already made Huai Shi understand: he has reached the apex of the Stigmata lineage, and what kind of power does the sublimator who can be called a complete body and a complete state have.

Even if it is a congenitally deficient Garuda, relying on his own light alone, he can purify a weak chicken like Huaishi like dust.

Even the one that was violently beaten by the remnants of the light was enough to transform into an entire wandering frontier, carrying a large number of sublimators to invade the realm anytime and anywhere, and destroying an entire city with its own weight alone.

However, the importance and preciousness of the fifth-order sublimator is far more than that.
