The Fruit of Surgery

"Mustan can't possibly join them." Hughes said decisively before Mustang spoke. Then Hughes, Mustang, and Hawkeye stared at the national map with the alchemy array on the table for a long time without saying a word. At this time, Hawkeye had put away the pistol in his hand.

They did not doubt Shen Fei's words. If ordinary people suddenly heard Shen Fei's words, they would definitely not believe it. But who made Hughes and Mustang feel that the military leaders were strange? Before, they just couldn't figure out the reason why the military did this, but now they know.

However, it was precisely because they knew the reason that the three of them were silent. There was no other reason. The enemy's strength and power were too strong. Think about the military of a country. From the highest leader to the generals at the top, they are all in the same group. What can the two lieutenant colonels do?

Although Mustang's rank of lieutenant colonel is higher than others of the same level because of his identity as a national alchemist, this high position is just a nominal position and he has no right to command troops. Mustang has only a few direct subordinates.

In a group like the military, power is from top to bottom. If the upper level has all problems, the lower level has no way out. One order can deprive you of your rights and even make you a wanted criminal.

As for making the conspiracy public, it is also impossible. The upper level has many ways to dispel rumors. The experience of the previous Ice Alchemist is a lesson learned.

"This is really interesting. Now I am one step closer to the position of the president." After a long silence, Mustang suddenly laughed, but although there was a smile on his mouth, his eyes were full of coldness.

"This is the way it is. If you don't want to die, it's best not to do anything extra. It's best to pretend that nothing has happened." Shen Fei looked at Hughes and Hawke and said so.

He could only do this for Hughes. Now the best result for Hughes is of course to leave the army and not participate in these things at all. The androids will not do anything extra. After all, they are androids, and their ideas are different from those of humans. It is this idea that caused their failure.

However, it is also known that Hughes will not leave the army in this situation unless Shen Fei uses coercive means. Of course, Shen Fei will definitely not do so. Reminding him is the most he can do. Although he just doesn't want to see tragedy, he is a nanny after all.

"You don't seem to remind me." Mustang looked at Shen Fei in confusion. He reminded Hughes and Hawke to pay attention to safety, but did not remind him, which made him feel a little strange.

In the world of Fullmetal Alchemist, it is rare that the protagonist is not the protagonist who has been cheating all the way and crushed. The adults in this world, such as Mustang, are very reliable.

"Because you may be a sacrifice. Before the plan of the artificial man is completed, you cannot die unless a replacement is found. Among so many people in the National Alchemist, there are very few people who can be sacrifices. You and the closest Fullmetal Alchemist brothers have the qualifications of sacrifices, and no one else has this qualification."

Shen Fei thought about it and revealed some things about the human pillar to Mustang. Of course, he didn't say it too clearly. It was mainly about the establishment of the National Alchemist for the selection of sacrifices. More was not revealed.

"Okay, this is all the information I know. You should be careful recently. Goodbye." Shen Fei stood up and prepared to leave.

"Are you leaving?" Hughes looked at Shen Fei with a puzzled look. He had never expected that this stranger would bring them here, tell them the truth about this country, and then leave without caring about anything.

"I'm going to New Country to investigate some things. There seems to be something wrong with the alchemy in this country. I want to go there to see the difference between their alchemy and the alchemy here." Shen Fei stated his goal.

"How is it possible that there is a problem with the alchemy in this country? What's the problem?" Mustang looked incredulous.

"If I knew, I wouldn't have to investigate." Shen Fei said and left directly. It was up to them how they would act next.

After leaving Hughes and others, Shen Fei immediately packed up all his belongings and prepared to leave Central City. He had nothing to do here.

"By the way, if a nuclear bomb is used at close range, I wonder if the current bottle man can be killed." Sitting on the flying skateboard, Shen Fei was thinking about the possibility of killing the bottle man head-on.

Although the little man in the bottle has many lives, if he is hit by a nuclear bomb at close range, no matter how many lives he has, it should be useless. After all, the little man in the bottle cannot rub nuclear fusion by hand.

Although it is difficult to get a big killer like a nuclear bomb, Shen Fei can still get it if it is only a small equivalent. After all, a certain country is famous. As long as you have money, you can get anything.

In the case of a nuclear bomb that the little man in the bottle is not aware of, it is not very difficult to throw it next to him. In this way, there is a high probability that the little man in the bottle will be killed, and then it will be simple. You can get the philosopher's stone buried underground in the entire country.

The reason why this method is not adopted is very simple. First, the destructive power of the nuclear bomb is too great. If a nuclear bomb is thrown underground in Central City, the people of the entire Central City may not be spared.

As for the second reason, that is, Shen Fei also wants to see this so-called national alchemy formation, which can pull down the alchemy formation of the gods. This kind of grand scene is not always available. Even Shen Fei has the idea of ​​using this alchemy formation in his mind.

Philosopher's Stone, Philosopher's Stone, Stone of Heaven, Great Elixir, Red Tincture, Fifth Entity, these names all indicate the power of Philosopher's Stone.

Shen Fei was certainly tempted by this kind of thing, otherwise he would not have deliberately looked for the refining array of Philosopher's Stone.

He was certainly not as crazy as the king of the destroyed Koselkoses. As the saying goes, there are always some people who deserve to die. For these damned people, whether they are killed directly or refined into Philosopher's Stone, the result is the same.

"Rior." Shen Fei did not go to the new country as soon as possible, but directly used the flying skateboard to come to Rior, where bloodshed was destined to happen in the future.

The reason why Shen Fei came here was for the Philosopher's Stone in the hands of the bishop. He almost forgot about it before. After remembering it, plus he was originally going to the east, he came here directly.

In the Fifth Research Institute, in order to avoid being discovered, he did not intend to play the Philosopher's Stone, but he was still discovered. However, at that time, he was only concerned about leaving and forgot to take the Philosopher's Stone.

Although there are many philosopher stones in the central underground, they are all controlled by the little man in the bottle. In order not to alert the enemy, Shen Fei did not move.

"The Church of the Sun God Leto." In the town of Rior, the radio was playing the speech of the bishop. Some people on the street listened devoutly, while others looked indifferent. From their conversation, Shen Fei heard about the miracle technique.

In the world of Fullmetal Alchemist, although there are newspapers, trains and other technologies, even so, the exchange of information is very closed. Alchemists are very common in some cities, but in this town, although some people have heard of them, few have actually seen alchemists.

After all, Rior is not big and not rich, otherwise Cornello would not have chosen this place as the development site of the church.

"Haha, as long as there are more believers, my plan can be completed." In the church in the center of Rior Street, Cornello, who had just delivered a routine speech, sat in his office with a smug smile on his face, and his fingers kept groping for the ring with red gemstones on his hand.

Cornello was originally just a third-rate alchemist. What is a third-rate alchemist? It is the kind of person who knows alchemy but has difficulty in completing the alchemy. Almost nine out of ten attempts fail. Therefore, in the alchemist industry, this kind of alchemist is the most despised.

However, Cornello was lucky. He got the Philosopher's Stone by chance. After discovering the power of the Philosopher's Stone, he became arrogant. He was really arrogant. He wanted to use the power of the Philosopher's Stone to become the leader of the country of Amestris and kill the current president.

Of course, he was not stupid enough to rush directly to the Central City to assassinate the president. Instead, he planned to use the power of the church and the Philosopher's Stone to build a faith army, first occupy the land and become the king, and then unify the country.

With the Philosopher's Stone, he was regarded as a messenger of God in Lior, and soon gathered a group of fanatics. Not to mention in this backward world, even in the Marvel world, with such advanced technology, some cults can easily gather a group of believers, and this is without extraordinary power. With the help of the Philosopher's Stone, Cornello's plan can be said to be going very smoothly.

Ah.

Bishop Cornello, who was very satisfied in the office, suddenly let out a shrill scream. A moment later, Bishop Cornello let out an even more miserable scream, but this time the scream was not because of pain, but because he saw that the red gem on the ring on his left hand was gone.

That was his lifeblood, the Philosopher's Stone.

Then Cornello covered his left hand and stared fiercely at the voice that suddenly appeared in front of him. This person was of course Shen Fei. The reason why Cornello screamed before was because he took the Philosopher's Stone from his ring. Because the action was a bit rough, Cornello's index finger was twisted off. With the ten fingers connected to the heart, it was normal for Cornello to scream.

However, from his screams, we can know that in Coneluo's heart, the pain of his fingers is still not as good as the discarding of the Philosopher's Stone. Who told him that he would be a waste without the Philosopher's Stone?

"My Lord Bishop, what's going on?" Soon, four guards who heard Coneluo's screams rushed over. These people were all people who Coneluo had conquered with the Philosopher's Stone, not believers.

When the visitor saw Shen Fei standing on one side of the room, he immediately raised his pistol, but the next moment, bang bang bang, several gunshots, the four people fell down, and a lot of blood appeared on their chests.

"What a waste, this is not good, I am a little fascinated." Looking at the four people falling, Shen Fei secretly cried out in his heart that it was a pity, but there was no way. Since he saw the refining array of the Philosopher's Stone, the people he wanted to kill were walking Philosopher's Stones in his eyes.

After taking a deep breath and shaking his head slightly, Shen Fei got rid of this idea.

"Who are you?" Looking at the pistol in Shen Fei's left hand, Coneluo's face immediately changed. Without the Philosopher's Stone, he now had no chance to resist.

"You don't need to know who I am." Shen Fei said as he pointed the gun in his left hand at Coneluo. Brother Edward didn't kill people, but he was different.

"Before I kill you, I need you to do one thing." Shen Fei put away his pistol, took out his magic wand, controlled Cornello with the Imperius Curse, and then turned on the radio to let Cornello tell the truth about the church, including the so-called miracle technique is just alchemy.

Shen Fei did this to wake up some people in Rio, although it seemed to have no effect. After all, the androids would not let anyone disrupt their actions. With Enwei's ability to transform, it was easy to fool those believers.

Shen Fei had no good way to deal with this, and could only rely on the choice of the Rio people.

After that, Shen Fei shot Bishop Cornello and threw the body out of the window.

"What a twisted soul." Most people see the Philosopher's Stone as just an ordinary red stone. If Shen Fei does not use power to check it, it is the same. But once he uses power to see it, he will find that there are dozens of souls crying and howling inside.

"Hohenheim can purify such souls. He is really comparable to a saint. No wonder he is called the Eastern Sage." The two great sages of the East and the West, Hohenheim is from the East, and the little man in the bottle is from the West.

Before, Shen Fei didn't know how difficult it was to purify the soul of the Philosopher's Stone, but after he really got the Philosopher's Stone, he found that purifying the soul inside was simply hellish difficulty, and he couldn't do it.

This is not that Shen Fei can't eliminate the painful howling of the twisted souls in the Philosopher's Stone. He can still do this with the magic of Kamar-Taj, but he can't make these souls regain their sanity.

"Sure enough, it's worthy of the blood that can give birth to the little man in the bottle, and he is called the Light Hohenheim."

"Hey, where are the others, why haven't they come yet." After killing Coneluo, Shen Fei found a strange thing, that is, no one else came. This is the church, Coneluo's base camp, with dozens of subordinates.

"So it's them." Shen Fei understood this doubt after he walked out of the office. On the other side of the corridor, two androids were standing there, Gluttony Gradoni and Lustful Rast.

"So your target is the Philosopher's Stone." Rast said with a smile after looking at the Philosopher's Stone in Shen Fei's hand.

"Who are you?" Shen Fei pretended to be puzzled.

"Can you eat it, Rast." Gluttony drooled at Shen Fei.

"Not for the time being." Rast stopped Gluttony who wanted to attack Shen Fei.

"That Philosopher's Stone doesn't have much energy. I have a better one here." Rast said and took out a round Philosopher's Stone that was larger than the one in Shen Fei's hand.

"Do you want more Philosopher's Stone?" Rast said with a smile after showing the Philosopher's Stone.

"What are the conditions?"

"Work for us."

"Sorry, I refuse. I choose to rob." Shen Fei said, slapping his right hand on the railing on the side, and a Gatling gun appeared in his hand instantly.
