The Last Alchemist

"Fire Priests? Why are they here?" Rosen was very surprised.

"Continue to listen to them." Lilith pointed to the exit.

From outside the crack, the sound continued to come in, but it was not the sound of voices, but a strange sound of metal collision, "clang-dang~clang-dang", it sounded like some metal machinery was being dismantled.

About an hour later, the voice sounded again, the rough voice from before: "Sir, look at this, is it what you are looking for?"

It was quiet for a while outside the exit, and only a slight sound could be heard. It should be that the priest was checking.

Ten seconds later, the priest's voice came: "Very good, this is exactly what I want. Richard, you have done a very good job. You have made a great contribution to the church. The eternal flame will take care of you, the church I will also give you a generous reward. Now, send a few people to bring these things back to Berkeley. Remember, there must be no accidents!"

"Yes, sir!"

"Then I'll leave first. You must pay attention to safety and don't be discovered by the evil magicians in Nerogard."

"clear."

There were footsteps coming, and the sound was getting farther and farther. It should be that the priest had left. After a while, the rough voice sounded again: "Brothers, get moving, clean up this place, and take away everything you can." , If you can’t take it away, burn it! If you can’t burn it, throw it into the sewer.”

"Yes, head!" A group of people agreed. Judging from the voices, there were at least 50 people.

Immediately afterwards, various chaotic sounds came from outside the exit, and occasionally there were some conversations, but the content was basically meaningless.

At this time, Rosen's invincible magic had lasted for more than six minutes, and there were at least 50 people outside the rift, and these guys were a group of Flame God believers who were performing secret missions.

If Rosen goes out rashly, the two sides will definitely fight. There are so many people on the other side, and if he is not careful, it may lead to tragedy.

After considering the situation for a moment, Rosen retreated along the rift, exited the rift, and returned to the Valley of Doom. Then he stayed in the darkness, across the rift, and listened carefully to the movement at the exit on the other side of the rift.

While he was waiting, he suddenly felt that Lilith's heartbeat was a little faster on his back, as if she had been frightened.

"What's wrong with you, Lilith?"

"I know that Richard." Lilith's voice was solemn.

"What's his background?"

"A big leader of wizard hunters has a very cruel character. He is known as the Butcher of Berkeley. During the Night of Fire two months ago, he tortured and killed more than 70 unarmed people with a red-hot iron because he asked about the whereabouts of a magician. The bodies of civilians, including two under-month-old babies and four pregnant women, were also burned and burned on the execution ground."

"He really is a butcher!" Rosen took a breath.

Lilith suddenly reached out and grabbed Rosen's arm: "Alchemist, I want to ask you something."

"What? You want me to kill that Richard?"

"Not entirely. I want you to help you find out the purpose of Richard's operation. Of course, if you have the chance, kill that Richard." Lilith whispered: "Of course, I won't let you do it in vain. Yes, I will pay you."

When Rosen heard about the reward, he couldn't help but laugh: "Miss Linde, you owe me a huge debt now. If you talk so freely now, aren't you afraid that you won't be able to pay it back in the future?"

"Uh~~~This..." Lilith was speechless for a moment. Along the way, she indeed owed Rosen a huge favor, a life-saving debt that she would never be able to repay in her lifetime.

"Haha~~"

Rosen suddenly laughed, and he touched the handle of the spiral spray gun: "But, I also want to find out what these flame priests are doing. So, just give me 50,000 gold dragon coins for this operation. alright."

Lilith was stunned for a while and then said: "You are really a miser."

"No, no, no, besides money, I also like magic. To be honest, if you are willing to give me an extra magic book, I will be very happy to accept it."

"." Lilith felt that her wisest choice was to shut up.

Although he decided to cause trouble for these flame cultists, it was obviously not a smart choice to rush out and attack them now, so Rosen was still waiting at the crack.

This wait lasted about an hour.

An hour later, the movement on the other side gradually disappeared. The group of flame cultists packed up their things and left.

Rosen's energy was basically restored, so he activated his alchemical magic power again, used invincible magic, and entered the rift again.

A few minutes later, he returned to the exit again. By this time, the firelight at the exit had completely disappeared and turned into darkness.

Rosen felt slightly relieved, took a step forward, and walked out of the crack. At the same time, he took out the flashlight and turned it on.

Outside the fissure is a huge hall. The walls around the hall are made of huge stone bricks, which are 10 meters high and more than 30 meters long and wide. This hall seemed to have just experienced a fierce battle. There were blood stains and stone fragments everywhere on the floor and walls. There were also several huge footprints more than 40 centimeters long in many places.

These footprints are up to 5 centimeters deep and were forcibly stamped on the stone bricks, showing the tremendous strength of the owner of the footprints.

Rosen removed the invincible shield and smelled a strong smell in the air, including the smell of gunpowder, blood, and an indescribable smell that was a bit like gasoline and a bit like engine oil. It was very strange. Never smelled it, not even on earth.

He walked around the hall again, carefully observing every sign of damage. Finally, he concluded: "A very fierce battle just took place here. One of the parties was a humanoid giant monster at least 4 meters tall. . The other side should be the warriors of the Flame God Cult. The weapons they use are smaller versions of the power of the God of Thunder, and they also use bombs. During the battle, at least 100 people from the Flame God Cult were dispatched, and more than 60 people were killed. In the end, the battle ended with the giant monster being killed, and the corpse of the giant monster was taken away by those people. The corpses are here, and they were all thrown into the sewer. I believe that soon, the corpses will float into the underground city and become food for the monsters. "

While speaking, Rosen squatted on the ground and carefully observed a stain on the ground.

This is a piece of oil, which is one of the sources of the strange smell. Judging from the traces on the scene, this stuff should have flowed out of the dead guard's body.

Lilith has also been observing, and she came to a conclusion similar to Rosen's. This conclusion made her terrified: "More than 100 warriors of the Flame God Cult used the power of the God of Thunder, and more than 60 of them were killed. This The power of the troll is truly terrifying.”

Rosen nodded slightly: "This monster is indeed very powerful. If I encounter it, I'm afraid I won't be its opponent."

Although the soldiers of the Flame God Cult used the most primitive muskets, there were over a hundred of them, and they all fired at the same time, as well as black powder bombs. The lethality was already quite terrifying, and the firepower was only slightly stronger than the two muskets in Rosen's hands. weak.

"What kind of monster can be so powerful? Is it a giant ghoul lord?" Lilith asked.

Rosen shook his head. He had a different idea: "Maybe, it's the death guard of the underground city."

He had dealt with the giant ghoul lord. The lord was very strong, but not as strong as this. It was the patrolling death guard who had crossed paths with him before. The thick blood energy and the strange power that made the air instantly drop to freezing point gave Luo Sen was impressed.

Furthermore, both the little monster and Night Demon Aisha said that there was a death guard guarding the exit of the Valley of Doom, but they did not encounter any monsters along the way. If this giant monster is the Death Guard, things will be corresponding.

After speaking, he stretched out his hand, dipped some oil on the ground, and looked carefully at it. He found that the thing was actually light silver, as if a lot of metal powder was dissolved in it. He rubbed it with two fingers and found that it was very slippery, and he could hardly feel any friction between his fingers.

‘It’s so slippery, is it for lubrication? ’ Rosen was very curious.

On the other side, Lilith did not notice Rosen's state. Her brows were filled with worry: "Why are the death guards in the dark city so strong? Why did those priests spend so much money to kill the death guards?"

Rosen also had no clue about this. As his understanding of this different world continued to deepen, his experience in previous games was no longer enough. Everything he was experiencing now was completely beyond his understanding of the game world.

"I don't know either, but this is definitely not a good thing. Come on, let's follow and see what happens!"

He had a feeling that this time, the Flame God Cult's plot might have something to do with the underground city.
