The Last Alchemist

Richard's attitude changed so quickly that Rosen and Lilith were stunned.

He was arrogant and domineering just a moment ago, and in the blink of an eye, he knelt down and begged for mercy. This guy is really thick-skinned.

Rosen guessed that Richard was shocked by his own methods. He calmed down a little and a smile appeared on his face: "Spare your life? It's not impossible, as long as you promise me one thing."

"Okay, okay, don't say one thing, even ten things, I will agree!" Richard agreed very straightforwardly.

He is a monster, who has lived for countless years and will live for countless years in the future. As long as he can save his life, he can continue to live happily in the future. To him, loyalty, trustworthiness, and the glory of a warrior are all bullshit. When he needs it, he uses it as a facade, and when he doesn't need it, he can let it go at any time!

"Okay, you made a wise choice."

Rosen changed his posture, half leaning against the stone wall beside the passage, still with a relaxed smile on his face.

In Richard's eyes, Rosen's current appearance is calm and confident of victory. But in fact, Rosen's real state now is dizzy and almost exhausted. He has to use all his strength to keep himself standing.

In order to deal with Richard's attack before, he had to maintain the stability of the invincible magic at all times, while charging the ray disc, and pretending to be relaxed and calm, which is simply challenging the limit of his body.

If he is not an undead now, it is impossible to complete such an extreme operation.

But unfortunately, Richard didn't know this. He knelt on the ground, staring at the ground, and didn't dare to look at Rosen again: "Master, if you want to know anything, just ask me. As long as I know it, I will tell you everything!"

"Very good." Rosen smiled and nodded: "Actually, I don't have anything to ask. What I really want to ask you is my friend."

After that, he gestured to Lilith.

It's not that he doesn't want to ask, it's really because he has consumed too much physical strength and is afraid that he will be exposed if he says too much.

Lilith was very close to Rosen. She knew Rosen much better than Richard. She took a closer look at Rosen and found that his face was pale and his forehead was covered with cold sweat. She felt a 'thump' in her heart and secretly said that it was not good.

She turned to look at the iron orc Richard. Although the ray cut into his waist by more than ten centimeters, it was not injured at all. If he found out about Rosen's situation and tried his best to attack, the end of the two of them would definitely be quite miserable.

'Gulp~'

Lilith swallowed her saliva secretly and felt weak in her heart, but she knew that she had to hold on. She took a breath and smiled 'coldly': "Hmm~ Richard, let me ask you, why are the wizard hunters here?"

"To hunt the death guards of the underground dark city." Richard answered quickly.

"Why do you have to spend so much money to hunt the Death Guard?"

"Because of Bishop Amlan's order, he needs the heart of the Death Guard."

"The heart of the Death Guard? What's the use of that thing?"

"That I don't know. Bishop Amlan is my immediate superior. He issues orders and I can only follow them. He never tells me why."

"Are you sure you don't know?" Lilith narrowed her eyes and spoke coldly.

Rosen also smiled and flicked his fingers, looking ready to take action at any time.

Richard hurriedly shouted: "Master! Don't worry! Let me think about it."

He frowned and thought hard. After a while, he said: "I seem to have heard that Bishop Amlan has always believed that monsters contain magic power, and the heart is the core of the monster's magic power. The more powerful the monster, the stronger the magic power, and the Death Guard is a very rare and powerful monster. The bishop seems to want to get power from the body of the Death Guard."

"Get power?" Lilith frowned.

If someone said a day ago that they could get magic power from the monster, she would not believe it, but now, she has to be cautious, because the young alchemist beside her was inspired by the monster's body and developed a very powerful space magic.

Richard nodded repeatedly: "Yes, yes, it must be like this. Bishop Amlan is obsessed with the study of power. I heard that the Thor's Power Potion was made by him. He once said that there are countless mysteries in the world. As long as these mysteries can be solved, you can get the power that makes the gods fear."

Hearing this, Rosen was also moved.

This Bishop Amlan is very similar to the first scientists in the ignorant era on Earth. Such people often represent the pinnacle of intelligence of an era and are outstanding people. The ideas of such people, even if they are very rough and primitive, must not be ignored, because if they are not handled well, such people will create a school of thought.

Lilith continued to ask: "Are there more?"

Richard shook his head repeatedly: "No, it's really gone this time. I told you all the news I know about Bishop Amlan."

"Are you sure?" Rosen's voice was cold, and he pretended to be stern.

"Master, it's really gone, you must believe me, things have come to this point, there is no need for me to lie to you!" Richard shouted repeatedly, with a look of saying nothing.

Seeing that there was really nothing new to be said, Lilith continued to ask: "Well. Let me ask you again, why did you carry the body of the Death Guard away?"

"Forging weapons."

"Making weapons? The body of the Death Guard can be used to make weapons?" Lilith looked unconvinced.

"Beautiful lady, I really didn't lie to you. The whole body of the Death Guard is made of very hard metal. If the Thor gun hits it, at most a few sparks will fly. If we hadn't brought enough Thor bombs, we might not be able to do it. Damn this guy."

Rosen rested for a while, regained some energy, and interjected: "So, where is Bishop Amran now?"

Richard was stunned: "Master, you know that Bishop Amran is also here."

"Answer my question!" Rosen's eyes widened, his expression cold.

Richard immediately lowered his head: "Yes, yes, the bishop left first with the heart of the death guard."

"Which way to go? Is it the one you take?"

"No, no, no." Richard shook his head quickly: "Actually, I don't know. Bishop Amran is a very mysterious person and possesses extremely powerful magic. I know almost nothing about him."

Rosen didn't quite believe it, but he didn't question it. Instead, he turned to Lilith for confirmation.

Lilith nodded slightly: "Bishop Amran of the Flame God Cult is not a simple person. In fact, he is not only a Flame Cultist, but also a very talented magician."

"Magician?"

"Light magicians. All priests who can release divine magic are actually magicians, but unlike the academy, most of those priests use light and fire magic." Lilith whispered.

"Oh~ interesting."

Rosen was thoughtful and pondered for a while, then he said to Richard: "It is said that the Flame God Cult recently planned to deal with Nerogard Academy, and secretly sent monsters to assassinate the nobles who support the academy. Is this true?"

"Yes, yes." Richard nodded repeatedly, betraying the Flame Church without any sense of restraint.

"Let's talk about the specific plan."

Richard suddenly looked embarrassed: "Master, I don't know much about this. Because I am not responsible for this matter and I don't know many details."

"Who's responsible? Where should I find this guy?"

"I know this. His name is Dallas Woburn. He lives at the dock in the trading area south of Nerogard City. He disguises himself as an alcoholic and hangs out at the Flower Hotel on the dock all year round. Well, Master, I've told you everything I know. "Can you let me go?" Richard begged cautiously, raising his lowered head slightly and looking at Rosen quietly from the corner of his eye, observing his expression.

The question has reached this level, which is almost enough. If the time goes on, Rosen will probably have to reveal his secret, which will be dangerous.

Thinking of this, Rosen secretly exerted his strength, tried to stand upright, and smiled at Richard: "You answered my question very well, and I am very satisfied. As a reward, you are free. Let's go, go farther and farther." The further away the better, don’t let me see you again, otherwise”

Richard was overjoyed and hurriedly got up: "Thank you, master. Thank you, master. I will never appear in front of you again. Don't worry!"

After saying that, he got up and limped away, running very fast and disappearing behind the corner of the passage in the blink of an eye.

As soon as he walked away, Rosen relaxed and relaxed, his legs went weak and he almost fell down.

He sat on the ground holding on to the wall and rested for several minutes before catching his breath. Then, he immediately put Lilith back on his back and fixed it with a rope.

Then he gritted his teeth, stood up again, and staggered back.

"How are you?" Lilith asked worriedly.

"I can still hold on." Rosen chuckled, but the sweat couldn't stop flowing from his forehead, and his back was completely soaked.

"Would you like to rest for a while?" Lilith felt moved and guilty at the same time. If it weren't for her, Rosen would never have fallen into such a dangerous situation.

"No, we must leave quickly. That Richard is a shrewd man. If he comes to his senses later and comes back to check, we will be in trouble."

This kind of bluffing can only be hidden for a while, but don't try to hide it for a lifetime. The best way is to stop it when it's good.

He held on to the wall and staggered back to the previous hall. Then he used all his strength and used his invincible magic again to get back through the crack he had come out of before.

The crack was not too long, only a few hundred meters long. Rosen had walked out very easily before, but when he walked back this time, he felt that his body was almost exhausted. He used all his strength to get out of the crack again.

After finally walking back to the exit of the fissure, Rosen let out a long breath, sat down on the ground with a 'pop', and gasped: "Ah, I can't do it anymore, I can't do it anymore, I have to take a rest."

As soon as he finished speaking, Rosen untied the rope that bound Lilith, then lay down on the ground. As soon as he closed his eyes, his body was spread out on the ground like a puddle of mud.

After lying for a while, he felt a quilt covering him. When he opened his eyes, he saw that Lilith was covering him with force.

"Don't be busy, I'll just rest for a while."

Lilith still didn't stop. After trying hard to cover herself with the quilt, she asked, "What should we do next?"

"Wait, after I regain my energy, I will build a more powerful ray disk. Then we will follow the traces of those believers and go out."

"good."

On this side, Rosen was lying on the ground to rest. On the other side, after Richard ran for a thousand meters, he suddenly felt something was wrong. He slowed down and ran slower and slower. Finally, he stopped and suddenly Patting his thigh: "Something's wrong! Something's wrong! Why do I feel like I've been cheated?"

He has lived for 180 years, loves adventure by nature, has seen countless storms, and seen through countless conspiracies.

Before, he was worried about his life and just wanted to get out of this situation, so he didn't think much about it. But now that his life is safe, he thought carefully and found that the young man's expression was not as relaxed as he imagined. He leaned against the wall and smiled, but he was not calm at all. He was just forcing himself!

"Okay~ You two little bastards, you are playing tricks in front of me. If I don't deal with you, I won't be called the Butcher of Berkeley!"

In the dark passage, Richard's face was ferocious, his teeth were clenched, his fists were clenched, and his knuckles made a "clicking" sound.
