[Comprehensive] Self-cultivation of the villain master

With Hohenheim as an indigenous group, Astra naturally doesn't have to think hard about how to describe the other side of the desert. Although there is not much information from the God of Truth, but the part about this humanoid Philosopher's Stone Still quite adequate.Just judging from the fact that the other party has lived for at least several centuries, this alchemist should have traveled around the world, so he is very clear about the other country.

Regarding her disappearance, Astra only explained half-truth: "Before I had nothing to do, I ran to a certain cave. I didn't expect to be trapped for so long. Fortunately, I have I brought some water and dry food, although I was trapped for a while, it wasn't that bad."

After listening to Astra's words, the men looked at each other, but for a while they didn't know what to say.They knew that it was easy for people to get lost in this area, so they thought the boy would stay in the hotel and not run around, so they didn't explain anything, and they almost had an accident.

However, they were very dissatisfied with the incident of Astra's running around, and they couldn't say anything. This person came here to take a look. If he didn't run out when he was free, wouldn't it be okay to stay in the hotel in a daze?This place is not as prosperous as the central area. Want beautiful scenery and beauties?There are only a few women and a baby girl who is still breastfeeding, nothing compares!

As if she couldn't feel the awkward atmosphere among them, Astra pointed to the blond man beside the old god who was eating bread, and said bluntly: "He just came from the desert, and he is a traveler like me. , when I found him in the cave, he hadn’t eaten for several days. I don’t know if he has money, but he must know a lot.”

After speaking, he didn't care how Hohenheim planned to deal with these people who might become his creditors, so he dragged Agas back upstairs and entered his room.

After closing the door, the indifference on Astra's face disappeared immediately.

While taking out the communicator from his pocket, he said to Agas, "Set up the barrier."

A golden light flashed in Agas' hand, and in the circle centered on him, no one except the two parties involved would know the slightest bit about what happened.

Seeing Astra's skillful movements, Agas asked, "Is it okay to leave Hohenheim there alone?"

"Don't look at those people who say they want to kill tourists, they are actually very kind. Didn't you hear what they said before? Just because an alchemist helped them repair something, the travel expenses were waived. Alchemists are rare. , But how much is the repaired thing worth? It can’t cover the travel expenses they deliberately increased. After all, as long as they are happy, any equivalent exchange is empty.”

Astra looked at the communicator in his hand, and there was no tendency to connect for a long time, so he couldn't help frowning: "Is it because the place is too remote and the signal is not good?"

"It's happened in the desert before."

Astra nodded and said, "It's true, then don't contact me."

Without letting Agas remove the barrier immediately, Astra asked him: "What do you think about this matter?"

"At first, I doubted the words of the God of Truth, but you were able to be pulled into this world, and Hohenheim died inexplicably, which shows that this is true. It's just—"

"?"

"I can't guess who is able to transfer the Hades here. That person must know what Hohenheim is to this world, so he will not let his soul return to the God of Truth. He understands Once the latter obtains this soul, he will return it."

"Not only killed Hohenheim, but also let the dead world of other worlds take away his soul. This thoughtfulness... makes the scalp tingle."

There are many enemies of Astra, but most of them are not his opponents, they can only grit their teeth and stare with hatred, but there is nothing they can do about it, and a very small part of them can fight against Astra without losing the wind, just this kind of closeness The method of killing each other is too self-harming, and almost no one will do it.

For thousands of years, only one god has used this method of harming others and benefiting oneself.

After thinking for a long time, Agas said casually, "You said you had a headache before, did you feel that?"

After hearing this, Astra's expression changed slightly.

"No, it can't be him."

Seeing that he was so sure, Agas disagreed.

"At that time, you used the method of self-destruct in exchange for the peace of the world. Even with the protection of the goddess, your soul suffered such trauma... It is impossible for you to have nothing, but now you are fine, so as the former The god of war, Ares, may still exist."

Bucai never thought about this possibility, but Astra subconsciously refused to think about it.To protect the world and blew up against the enemy sounds righteous and awe-inspiring, but it's actually not the case.

Otherwise, why couldn't he return to his body despite recovering his memory?

Astra pressed her temples, her expression a bit complicated.

"If this is the case, it will be troublesome."

At that time, Ares did not get entangled with Astra on his own will. He was a selfish god, and he would be the first to leave when the situation was not good. Unfortunately, he couldn't help himself.

Ares, whose actions were controlled, had to die together with Astra in an epic death.

But no matter whether Ares thought so at that time or not, the person who killed him was indeed Astra who did not run away, so if he was really alive, he would definitely go to the human world to find Athena to be unhappy.

"If he's in Sanctuary, at least Athena can suppress him, but—"

Understanding Astra's meaning, Agas sighed: "If you are thrown into the singularity like you, then it is probably possible to join forces with Leif and the others, and the underworld will be pulled into this world."

So Astra touched another pocket and muttered, "I remember it was here..."

Seeing Astra rummaging through his pockets, Agas couldn't help being curious: "What are you looking for?"

"Your body gave me a communicator before. I obviously put it in this pocket before. Why is it missing?"

Hearing this, Agas couldn't help but said, "Have you ever seen a communicator that transcends time and space?"

Astra was taken aback, and Agas continued: "Even with the power of the small universe, the connection through time and space can't last long, not to mention—when Kudo Shinichi gave you this thing, it was the Holy Grail for you." Is it used during war?"

Astra thought for a while before nodding slightly.

Agas said again: "Then the communicator is useless."

After hearing this, Astra asked back: "Then is there a way for you to convey the situation to him?"

"Unfortunately, I am not a follower in the traditional sense after all. Once I return to my body, I will never be able to return."

After a long time, Astra supported his forehead and said, "That's right, there are things that even he can't do."

The matter of Ares, after all, is only at the stage of speculation. Neither Astra nor Agas can be sure. It is necessary to be vigilant, but there is no need to be particularly concerned.

Without continuing on this topic, Astra asked Agas to remove the barrier, and then lay down on the bed, regardless of whether the dust on her body would stain the sheets.

Without the strong body he once had, Astra is now at best a human being who possesses great power and cannot fully use it. The body endowed by the Holy Grail is still not as tough and powerful as he has cultivated for more than ten years. He will be just like ordinary people Tired easily and feel powerless.

Not long after lying down, he fell into a deep sleep.

Under the shadow of the billowing curtain, Agas' eyes instantly turned red like blood.

……

Early the next morning, Astra checked out of the room and left Usville with Hohenheim.

Before leaving, Hollinger ordered his wife to bake a lot of bread and divide it into three portions.

Handing the share in his hand to Astra, he patted her on the shoulder and said earnestly: "Although I really hope that you will come here again, there is nothing good about this kind of place. It's really boring and it's okay to come again. If you don't come... well, it's up to you anyway."

Seeing the boss's attitude, Astra couldn't make up his mind for a while, so he looked at Hohenheim, after all, he had a thorough chat with these people.

With different ages, the content of the chat will naturally be different, especially the alchemist already has two sons, one of whom is the famous Edward Elric, and everyone who knows this is naturally reluctant to ask him for more Accommodation fee.

After sending the three of them to the car, Astra breathed a sigh of relief.

"You look like you've let go of some baggage."

Astra pointed to the outside, with a wry smile on her face: "I can't get along with those people, and it's thanks to you that I can have fun with them."

Hohenheim smiled, shook his head and said, "These people are very down-to-earth, and they are very easy to get along with. What you are not used to is the atmosphere here."

As he spoke, he suppressed his smile.

"What do you think is the purpose of artificial man building and destroying the country?"

"According to your description of the artificial man, he looks very similar to the God of Truth, doesn't he?"

Hearing this at first, Hohenheim slowly revealed a surprised expression as if he had opened a new door.

Astra smiled and said: "Then he should most want to be recognized by the gods, or pull the gods down and become a god himself."

This is not a part that can be guessed casually, but Astra and Agas are very close to the existence of God, and naturally they can be associated with these points that ordinary people cannot think of.

What is the real reason, we still have to wait until the conspiracy is brought to light.

Hohenheim asked him what he thought, so he just guessed casually, and it didn't matter whether he was right or wrong.

However, for this brave man who can save the world, this is a direction that can be referred to. After all, there are too many weird places, so this possibility is not impossible.

The trees on both sides retreated quickly, and soon entered an area without shelter, and all they saw were vast buildings on the ground and dense crowds.

Hohenheim looked at the boy with a surprised expression, and said, "The location of Usville is really remote. If you only see it and think it is the whole country, you are making a big mistake. The center is the most prosperous place in the country, and it is also the place where every country is located. A place that alchemists yearn for."

Astra turned his head and asked him, "Is this the same for you, the Philosopher's Stone?"

Hohenheim smiled and said nothing.
