The Fruit of Surgery

"Let's go and see what the situation is now." Shen Fei quickly decided to put aside the knowledge gained from studying the Gate of Truth and go to Central City to see if Edward and the others have solved the bottle man. After all, they have already left the Gate of Truth and they certainly can't go back. Thinking too much will only add to the trouble.

The Quinjet fighter with the stealth system turned on quickly flew towards Central City. After reaching the sky above Central City, he rode on a flying broom, activated the Pym particles, retracted the Quinjet fighter, and flew down.

"It seems that the battle is not over yet." Soon Shen Fei saw the battle in front of the Central Military Square because of his high-altitude vision. Several alchemists besieged an old man with a skinny body and an aged face at close range. This is the bottle man.

Although these attacks did not cause any damage to his body, the continuous attacks made him only able to defend continuously and could not counterattack.

Although Colonel Mustang was blind, under Hawkeye's command, every blow of the Flame Alchemy would fall on the bottle man.

In front of Colonel Mustang, there is a huge earth wall, which Mustang built to protect him and Hawkeye. Mustang, who has watched the Gate of Truth, now has the means of Polaroid.

In front of Izumi is a huge stone crossbow, which keeps firing huge crossbow arrows. Edward and Armstrong are also constantly attacking from a distance.

Hohenheim's attack is the simplest and most powerful, a pure energy attack.

"Eight times the vision of ordinary people." Shen Fei was very surprised before, how he was discovered by Mustang and others, after understanding Hawkeye's situation, he understood why, Hawkeye is not exaggerated, Hawkeye has eight times the vision of normal people, which seems to be similar to Marvel's Hawkeye.

Marvel's Hawkeye's vision is also far superior to ordinary people.

"The lost arm is back, Al's armor is damaged, has it been replaced?" Edward was very angry at this time, probably because of his brother Al's sacrifice to get his arm back.

Several alchemists were at the forefront of the battle, and in the distance were some soldiers, who attacked the bottle man through various long-range attack methods, such as guns, small mortars, etc.

The reason why those soldiers attacked from such a distance was because the bottle man had a very terrifying ability, that is, within a certain distance, he could instantly turn ordinary people into philosopher's stones, but this ability could only be used on ordinary people, and alchemists seemed to be immune to his ability.

Under this ability, ordinary people attacking the bottle man at close range was to give him the philosopher's stone.

"It's the last gasp of a dying horse, it seems I don't need to do anything." In fact, after Hohenheim's countermeasures were activated, the bottle man had already lost this battle. God is not easy to deal with. After losing more than 50 million souls in the entire country of Ames, the bottle man had lost the power to suppress God.

Even if there is no battle afterwards, as time goes by, the man in the bottle will soon be attacked by the gods, unless he can absorb more than 50 million souls in a short time, it is possible to suppress the gods again. Unfortunately, this is impossible. Without the land refining formation, let alone the scattered 50 million people, even if these 50 million people are gathered together without resistance, it is impossible to turn them into philosopher's stones in a short time.

So even if Edward and others lose this battle, the plan of the man in the bottle has failed. The battle is just to speed up the consumption of the philosopher's stone in the man in the bottle and let the gods attack him faster.

So strictly speaking, in the world of Fullmetal Alchemist, the game is only between the man in the bottle and Hohenheim, and the participation of other people is actually dispensable.

The protagonist of Fullmetal Alchemist has never been Edward and his brothers, but their father Hohenheim.

"Damn it, no, I just want it." The continuous attacks finally made the little man in the bottle unable to suppress the power of God in his body. Black shadows emerged from his body. At first, there were only a few, and then slowly covered his whole body. Then an eye without any emotion slowly appeared, and then the little man in the bottle disappeared.

The battle ended here.

After seeing the little man in the bottle disappear, everyone breathed a sigh of relief. Izumi covered her chest and sat down. The continuous battle, even if she was a very strong housewife, had reached her limit. If the enemy was still there, she might be able to continue to hold on.

But now that the enemy has disappeared, the fatigue and the injuries in the body immediately emerged.

Edward immediately rushed to Al's destroyed armor.

"So it's here. It seems that there is no need to look for it in the space gap in the gluttonous stomach." After the little man in the bottle disappeared, Shen Fei came to the underground base of the little man in the bottle deep underground of the Central Military Department and saw the circular alchemy array engraved on the ground.

This alchemy array is exactly the content on the broken mural in the ruins of Kosel Koses, and it is complete. The five suns on the alchemy array represent the five human pillars.

"There is such an alchemy array left, which means that in the history of this world, what the little man in the bottle is doing now has been done by someone before."

Thinking this in his heart, Shen Fei began to search for research materials around.

After the war, it was time to clean up the mess. Originally, this should have been Mustang's time to be busy, but because he was blind, Major General Armstrong had to clean up the mess now.

Because of the previous battles and chaos, Major General Armstrong was the highest-ranking officer in the Central Military Department at this time. Those with higher ranks than her were either killed or imprisoned.

In addition, the President was also on this side, so Major General Armstrong soon took control of the situation in Central City. His Northern Army, together with Colonel Mustang's men, were slowly taking over the Central Army.

Central City soon returned to peace. Of course, this was only temporary. There were still many problems to be solved later. The truth of the matter was only known to the Eastern Army and the Northern Army. There were also the Southern Army and the Western Army, and they must explain it.

Edward used his own Gate of Truth to exchange his brother's body, which was a perfect ending.

Because it was unknown how many Central Army soldiers participated in the above conspiracy, the Eastern Army quickly entered Central City. Under the leadership of Lieutenant General Guraman, this battle, Guraman was the yellow bird behind and picked up the biggest bargain.

There is no way. In terms of military seniority, he is the most senior when all the upper echelons of the Central Military Department are finished. If he comes forward, the country can quickly return to peace. After all, although the conspiracy of the little man in the bottle has been resolved, it does not mean that the country is peaceful.

There will still be wars, such as the current Brix Fortress in the north. Because of the attack of Draguma, the war will not stop in a short time.

And the Northern Army needs Major General Armstrong to take charge.

After a series of negotiations, or transactions, Gulaman became the acting president, Colonel Mustang became Brigadier General Mustang, the supreme leader of the Eastern Army, and Major General Armstrong became Lieutenant General and the supreme leader of the Northern Army.

After all, suppressing the rebellion is also a kind of merit.

It can be imagined that the next president should be born between these two people.

"It seems that Greed can only give up here. Gulaman picked up a big bargain. It seems the same for Yao Lin." Shen Fei looked at Yao Lin and his party who were about to return to the new country and shook his head slowly.

Greed and Yao Lin merged, and although they were eventually killed by the little man in the bottle, there must be some power of the Philosopher's Stone in their bodies. In this way, Yao Lin's lifespan will definitely be much longer in the future.

After some consideration, Yao Lin and Zhang Mei finally gave up the method of making the Philosopher's Stone. It was too terrifying for the emperor of a country to master this method. Even Yao Lin himself did not dare to confirm whether he would do this in the future when he was old. So in order to avoid this situation, he simply did not know.

The same was true for the country of Ames. They directly destroyed the underground base of the little man in the bottle. Of course, considering that Dr. Marco knew the method of making the Philosopher's Stone, Shen Fei was not sure about how to deal with it in the future.

Of course, the method of making the Philosopher's Stone was destroyed, and the existing Philosopher's Stone was not destroyed, but was used. The Edward brothers vowed not to use the Philosopher's Stone for personal gain.

But there are still many people on Mustang and Yao Lin's side who need the Philosopher's Stone, such as Mustang's eyes, Lan Fang's shoulders, and the injuries on Mustang's men.

Although Shen Fei changed a lot of things, some things still did not change.

Mustang didn't want to use the Philosopher's Stone at first. The price of the Gate of Truth made him realize himself, but under the persuasion of Hawke and others, he finally agreed to use his life to make up for the mistakes he made that year.

Edward's teacher Izumi's physical problems could have been solved by the Philosopher's Stone, but she refused in the end. Izumi said that since this was the punishment given to her by the Gate of Truth, she was ready to accept this punishment for her whole life.

The toll collected by the Gate of Truth in the human body is not collected casually. What you care about most, the Gate of Truth will take away.

Equivalent exchange is the absolute truth of this world, even the little man in the bottle cannot avoid it.

After listening to Izumi's insistence, everyone couldn't say anything and could only accept it.

"Dr. Marco, there is still some power of the Philosopher's Stone. I wonder if you can help." After using the remaining Philosopher's Stone to treat several people in a row, looking at the remaining Philosopher's Stone, Shen Fei then told the story of Panini of Laxbarre.

Mechanical armor looks cool, but it comes at the cost of pain. It is a good thing to let Panini recover one day earlier. Shen Fei himself has the Philosopher's Stone, but it is not easy to expose it.

"No problem, I will go there later." After listening to Panini's life story, Dr. Marco immediately said that once the matter here is resolved, it will be over.

After the matter in Central City was almost settled, the Edward brothers and their father were ready to return to their hometown to meet Winry. Mustang and Hughes also began to implement new policies.

The Ishval people can now return to their hometown, and the country will help them rebuild their homes.

"The price of the Gate of Truth is really amazing." Shen Fei has always been curious about the price of the Gate of Truth and wanted to study it, but because he was busy before, he forgot about it. Now he finally has time. After this study, Shen Fei found that even if he had the surgery fruit, he couldn't solve it.

The scientific method he had envisioned to restore the price he paid would not work in this world. He did not know about Edward's hands and feet, but he checked Mustang's eyes and Izumi's internal organs.

Can a person survive if he loses some of the main internal organs in his body? Yes, that is for sure. Shen Fei, who possesses the Operation Fruit, said that he can take out the heart in the human body, and the person can still live well without any discomfort.

But this is the power of the Operation Fruit. Without this power, Shen Fei does not think that he can survive, but Izumi's body is beyond Shen Fei's cognition. She is missing some internal organs, but her body circulation is no different from that of a normal person except that it is sometimes not smooth.

These lost parts seem to have strange energy that restricts their recovery, just like Mustang's eyes. Even with the Operation Fruit, he cannot restore his sight. It seems that only through exchange can he do it.

"It's not a complete loss, it's just temporarily placed in the Gate of Truth."

"What do you want to do, you bastard?" In a cave deep in the uninhabited mountains, Enwei, who was released, cursed at Shen Fei.

"You don't need this." Shen Fei said as he threw Enwei into the refining array of the Philosopher's Stone, and then it started immediately. As for Enwei's cursing, he didn't care at all.

"A four-legged lizard." Seeing Enwei, who had revealed his original form because all the Philosopher's Stones disappeared, Shen Fei killed him directly, and then did the same thing, Gluttony, Pride, and Laziness were all thrown into the refining array.

"Such a small baby." Looking at the prototype of Pride, a baby that was less than the size of a palm, Shen Fei was stunned for a moment, and he really forgot about this.

He could crush Enwei's prototype four-legged lizard to death in one go, but he really couldn't do it with this baby.

"Forget it, the Philosopher's Stone has completely disappeared, so let Hughes, Mustang and others consider this trouble." Shen Fei, who couldn't do it and didn't want to take care of the baby, immediately decided to give him away.

"This knowledge is really magical. In time, I should be able to do nuclear fission by rubbing my hands." After refining all the Philosopher's Stones of the artificial man, Shen Fei immediately began to study the knowledge obtained from the Gate of Truth.

As he spoke, a fist-sized fireball appeared in Shen Fei's hand, floating above his palm.

"This is like magic. What kind of wizard is it to chop people with a blade?" Looking at the fireball on his palm, Shen Fei couldn't help but smile. Of course, this is not magic, but alchemy. If it is a person in this world, even if he has seen the Gate of Truth, he can't do it, such as Mustang.

But he is different. The combination of dimensional magic and the knowledge of the Gate of Truth allows him to surpass the alchemists of this world.

That is, the energy in his body is insufficient now. If he has the power of the little man in the bottle, he can also do nuclear fission by rubbing his hands like him.
