Time passed in the constant wandering of Ling Ze and Hohenheim, and when the two of them had everything ready, time was not much longer than the arrival of the "appointed day", and it was imminent.

During this period of time, Ling Ze has been frantically absorbing the knowledge of von Hohenheim, and under Hohenheim's teaching, his learning progress in alchemy and alchemy is advancing rapidly.

A teacher who has studied this knowledge for four or five hundred years does not need to understand what he says, and it is as if Hohenheim is putting that knowledge in his head.

"Your learning speed is simply amazing, it's hard to imagine, are you really an ordinary human?"

Ling Ze felt that Hohenheim's teaching was too good, but Hohenheim felt that Ling Ze's learning ability was too perverted, he didn't think how good his teaching was, and when he taught the alchemy to the new Chinese people before, he found that his teaching ability could only be said to be average.

"You taught me well, and I can easily understand what you are saying."

The two of them were blowing each other in another wave of business, but Ling Ze did not deny that he was learning quite fast, after all, his learning ability, mental reaction speed and so on, all of which had improved when he used the [Energy Value Improvement Card] before.

If you look at it this way, the [Energy Enhancement Card] is indeed a very rare card, and the boost that card brings to him is no worse than unlocking an imperial tool.

"Over there in Eastern City, the old fox of the Eastern Army, Gulaman, and Major Miles of the Briguz Army have begun to move, and Kim Bradley is attracted to them."

The latest news sent to Ling Ze and their side is that Kim Bradley has left Central City and gone to Dongfang City, and Central City is still very concerned about the old fox of Gulaman and Briguz's army.

"So Colonel Mastan and Major General Armstrong are ready to start the operation, they sent a message to ask when we will be in place, if we don't go, they don't dare to do it, after all, it's just a matter of solving the worldly forces, it's useless."

Isaac showed Ling Ze the information sent by Roy Mastan before, because the central city is very dangerous, so Roy Mastan usually directly asks trustworthy people to pass on the news, but there is really a sense of fighting a spy war.

"Let's go right away, the appointed day is tomorrow, we have to settle in advance and get everything ready, we can go directly to the villain in the bottle."

Ling Ze received the information, and directly ignited it with his fingertips to burn it, this was not the alchemy used, but the power of the emperor's tool [Romantic Fort Magic Ball] used, and he didn't open the "door", so naturally he couldn't use the flame alchemy of the "Flame Alchemist" without refining into a formation.

"At present, there are four human pillars: Hohenheim, Edward, Alphons, and Izmi Cadiz, and if you want to open the door of the earth, you need to use five human pillars, and Isak, Roy Mastan, and Dr. Marr are all candidates for human pillars, so can I open the door and try it?"

Ling Ze suddenly thought of this question, and once he had this thought, he found that he couldn't stop a little.

Although after opening his own "door", the power obtained is not terrifying, but he can use alchemy without drawing a formation to form a formation.

But that's much better than the current situation, once the alchemy array is destroyed, you have to prepare for the alchemy array again, it's really a little too troublesome, it's better to directly "shoot the polaroid".

And he still has the "Philosopher's Stone" on his body now, although the size is not too big, but it should be more than enough to pay the toll of "human body refining" once.

"Are you sure you want to do that?"

Hohenheim's face was serious, Ling Ze's idea was still quite like that, no one in the ordinary world would want to do the "human body refining" thing, after all, the price was too great, unless there was a sharp weapon like the "Sage Stone" in his hand, otherwise for human beings, the price he could pay was only the composition of his own body.

"Don't treat me as an ordinary person, after becoming the so-called human pillar, it is convenient for me to fight against the villain in the bottle with you, I believe that he will be very surprised to see me such a human pillar, just don't be surprised to become frightened."

Of course, Ling Ze would not listen to his persuasion, after all, he was tired of hearing those rumors, and he knew no less about the "refining of the human body" than Hohenheim.

After all, this is an important clue throughout the play, the sun and the moon are one, and when the moon is eclipsed, it symbolizes the point of "gods", but the Elric brothers knew it when they were children.

And the "Human Body Refining" was studied by the two little guys by themselves, so Ling Ze was not worried that with his current alchemy attainments, he would learn how to use the "Human Body Refining".

"Did the Philosopher's Stone be taken from the hands of the androids?"

Hohenheim looked at a piece of "Philosopher's Stone" thrown around in Ling Ze's hand, and asked him with a complicated look in his eyes.

"No, this was made by Doctor Mar before, during the war of annihilation in Ishvar."

Ling Ze shook his head, this stone was obtained from Doctor Mar, and the soul wailing in it was an Ishuvar, and Ling Ze's attitude towards the "Philosopher's Stone" was actually to hold the view that it could be used, after all, using this "Philosopher's Stone" could also liberate the soul in it, no matter how it was used, it was much better than continuing to wail in pain there.

Just as Uncle Synth said when he advised Alphonse to use the "Philosopher's Stone" against Kimberley and Pryde, using the "Philosopher's Stone" made by the souls of these Ishvars to fight against the culprits who caused all the tragedy, and it is also a consolation to the souls of the Ishvars who have been refined into the "Philosopher's Stone".

"It's not difficult to refine the human body, and you don't even need to learn it, as long as I help you draw a good refining array, and then you can refine it yourself, which is very convenient and easy to operate."

Hohenheim knew that Ling Ze had made up his mind, so he didn't continue to persuade anything, but simply drew a refining array on the ground, in order to restore the body, he had studied these things very carefully, and this was why his two sons were able to tinker with the human body refining by themselves.

After all, they learned directly from the books he left behind, and it is not surprising that those two gifted children can be tinkered with.

"Remember the knowledge that the human body has refined, and directly carry out the refining practice."

Hohenheim has everything ready, this old thing is really intimate, and the so-called "knowledge of human body refining" he said is actually some knowledge about the human body, after all, the original goal of "human body refining" is to refine human beings, which is to "come back from the dead".

"Zizi Zi !!"

Ling Ze was very straightforward, holding the "Sage Stone", he slapped it on the refining array without hesitation.

The blood-red refining reaction was very violent, completely different from the ordinary refining, that strange feeling appeared again, similar to the feeling of being sucked in by the "gluttony" Gratoni before, and the difference between it and the human refining initiated by Edward was that Ling Ze opened the door by himself this time to see the "truth".

"Hello."

In the vast white space, there was a huge door standing in it, the door was full of alchemy knowledge, and under the door, there was a figure similar to Ling Ze's body, but his face could not be seen clearly.

The one who greeted Ling Ze was that shadow-like existence, and its voice was exactly the same as Ling Ze's.

"Hello, Truth."

Ling Ze also said hello to it, for the existence in front of him, Ling Ze can roughly understand him as the existence of the connection between the "self" and the "world".

This "truth" is not "truth", but also "truth", neither "self" nor "oneself".

The so-called "one is all, all is one", "one is me, all is the universe", in short, it is a very "metaphysical" thing.

"You have endless desires in your heart, and you, like that greedy fellow, want to control the power of truth."

The figure sitting on the ground, looking at Ling Ze and saying this, did not have any anger, nor did he have any resentment, but he was telling a fact very calmly.

Ling Ze's brows furrowed, and he had to say that he seemed to have realized a little bit of how others felt when he used the Emperor's Tool [Five-Vision Universal Observer] to see through their thoughts.

"I have never denied my desires, is a life without desires still called life? Who can truly be desireless? Desire to enhance enthusiasm, perseverance to smooth the mountains, only with desire, people will continue to climb, if my body can withstand it, then I will definitely find a way to pack that truth and take it away, is there anything wrong with this? ”

Ling Ze is also very direct, this thing in front of him obviously knows the bottom of him, so he has nothing to hide, although it seems that this thing has its own wisdom, but in fact, he is more like he is talking to himself.

"Don't you know? Isn't it true that the truth will give despair to those who are arrogant, to give people the right despair, to let them know their own insignificance? ”

After hearing Ling Ze's words, the "truth" laughed, and its words were full of doubts, as if they were very puzzled why Ling Ze "knowingly committed it".

"Tsk, how do you know if you don't try? Maybe you can't give me despair? Maybe I'm just lucky? ”

Ling Ze also laughed, he actually did have the idea of taking a gamble, of course there was a premise, if none of his preconditions were met, then he would definitely not risk trying.

But once things really turn out the way he thinks, then he will definitely not want to let go of that good opportunity.

It doesn't matter if he is greedy, or if he is bold, but when the opportunity to "become a god" is in front of him, if he doesn't try to give it a try, he must have been kicked in the head by a donkey.

"Hehe, I hope you can succeed."

"Truth" continued to smile and didn't say anything more, the door opened, and Ling Ze left the area under the pull of the suction, and returned to the world again.

"It's finished?"

When Isaac saw Ling Ze move, he immediately asked him, he was actually a little interested, but he was not as extreme as Ling Ze, and now he didn't have the "Philosopher's Stone" in his hand, even if he wanted to give it a try, he couldn't do it.

"Yes."

As soon as Ling Ze clapped his hands, he immediately launched the alchemy technique, and "refining into a formation" was no longer something that he had to need.

Of course, there is still a gap between this and Hohenheim and the "villain in a bottle", after all, they are the "sage's stone" themselves, and they can launch alchemy without clapping their hands.

At most, he is just a "polaroid", and people are really "wishing things come true", and the gap is not ordinarily obvious.

"Let's go, go to Central City, everything is ready, just wait for him to throw himself into the net."

The satisfied Ling Ze and Hohenheim, as well as Isaac who picked them up outside the city, infiltrated Central City together, and the reason why Isaac was outside to meet them was because he was a "wanted criminal" and was too easy to expose in Central City.

Although Ling Ze is too, and Hohenheim is enough to attract the attention of the artificial people, but if they only hide here for a day, they still have no problem.

"It's really ridiculous, that guy is almost sure that we will stop him, so he sits in his lair, not panicking at all, not afraid that we very important people will not go."

After entering Central City, sensing the aura of the "Sage's Stone" flowing under his feet, Ling Ze couldn't help but feel funny, the number of layers of the "villain in the bottle" was still too low.

That guy's arrogance made him despise humans too much, and even Hohenheim, a human who shared half of the power of the "Philosopher's Stone" like him, he didn't look at it squarely, but just regarded it as a tonic.

"Let him see the human counterattack."

Isaac was also excited, this guy was quite second-in-the-middle, which can be seen from the fact that he single-handedly wanted to overthrow the Central Army Command.

Underneath the CAS headquarters, two androids "Jealous" Envy and "Arrogant" Pride are together, and both of them have sensed the coming storm.

"Just let them go? Will they send it to the door themselves? What if those timid humans escape? Why don't you arrest them? ”

"Jealousy" Enwei's words are full of debasement of human beings, and the lemon essence spirit of "can't eat grapes and say that grapes are sour" is vividly embodied in this guy's body, because of envy and jealousy, so he has such "hatred" for human beings.
