The Last Alchemist

"Dong dong~dong dong~dong dong~"

In the darkness, Rosen could clearly feel his heartbeat. He stood motionless at the door, staring at the dim corridor without blinking, like a wooden man.

'monster! Danger! monster! Danger! ’ Two words kept spinning in his mind.

In the world of "Hunter", monsters are called monsters because they have physical qualities that can crush ordinary creatures. Both their strength and five senses are far superior to humans. Some monsters even have inexplicable, similar powers. Magical special skills.

To ordinary people, all monsters are very, very dangerous. When ordinary people face different types of monsters, the only difference is probably the method of death.

The corridor entrance on the second floor was dark, like a thick ball of ink that could not be dissolved. From time to time, there were subtle noises, constantly reminding Rosen that there were probably two creatures there. One was a pitiful person who was dying. The second one is a high-level vampire BOSS who is committing violence.

'Suppose I really travel to the world of "Hunter" now, suppose I am really a rich man now, and an inhumane vampire comes to the manor, what should I do? ! ’

Now, how to travel through time? Why time travel? Questions like these are meaningless. For Rosen, what he has to do now is how to save his life.

‘This room behind me is Rosen, no, it’s my alchemy room. Alchemy Room Alchemy Room. I have been studying alchemy for half a year, but I have very little relevant knowledge in my mind. It is just some basic operating experience. It seems that I am just a beginner in alchemy. Wait, alchemy talent. This is probably the only strength I can rely on now. Got it! ’

‘The game introduction says that alchemy is a branch of magic. Alchemists focus on material transformation. As long as you focus on your mind, you can feel the existence of alchemical talent. I don’t know if this is the case in the real world. I’ll give it a try. ’

Rosen took a deep breath, closed his eyes, and tried to calm down the distracting thoughts in his heart. After five or six seconds, he really felt the effect of the alchemy talent 'Friends of the Elements'.

He clearly felt that there were two distinct components in the air around his body. One was very lively and full of vigorous vitality. It accounted for about one-fifth of the air, and the other was much calmer. , seemingly indifferent to him, it almost occupies the remaining four-fifths.

‘The former should be oxygen, and the latter should be nitrogen, tsk tsk~ It’s as if I can see them with my own eyes, it’s really magical. ’ Rosen was a little fascinated. Unlike the simple power in the game, alchemy in the real world is a very wonderful experience.

His miraculous alchemy talent made him forget his current situation, calm his mind, and focus more on sensing the air around him.

Vaguely, he felt that there were still some very subtle elements in the air, some were lazy and seemed unwilling to move, some seemed to be malicious towards him, and some seemed to be omnipresent and able to tolerate everything.

"They are inert gases, carbon dioxide, and water vapor. The feeling is quite vague and it is easy to miss them. Maybe the content is too low, or maybe my talent is not strong enough, but they are really there, just waiting for my discovery. Oh my God, this magical feeling is so wonderful.”

For a time, Rosen was completely immersed in his new supernatural abilities.

Soon, he realized the power of 'elemental manipulation' again.

He discovered that when he used elemental perception to focus his attention on a specific substance, such as oxygen, he could actually move them with his mind. Although the range of movement was very small, he was indeed Can do this.

When he pushed the oxygen towards his nose with all his strength, a very weak airflow appeared around his face. He took a sharp breath and his mind suddenly became clear. This was clearly the effect of high-concentration oxygen. .

'I wonder how far my power can extend? ’

Thinking of it, Rosen tried his best to control the oxygen in the distance. As the distance became farther and farther, the control power gradually weakened. Until 2 meters away, the element control power finally reached the limit.

"Wonderful, so wonderful."

This feeling, as if an invisible hand of thought stretched out from his mind, was very interesting.

Rosen couldn't help but think: "My elemental perception is better than an electron microscope, and elemental manipulation is a thinking hand that can control molecules and atoms. If these two abilities can be continuously enhanced, wouldn't I be able to directly Controlling elements to fight? Isn’t this elemental magic?”

"Wait a minute, I seem to be overthinking it. The world of "Hunter" seems to be a low-magic world. After playing for so long, I have seen many magicians, but most of them are basically scholars. They It does have some magic, but its power is really average.”

He had seen a fire mage in the game. It was said that he was a master of fire magic who appeared only once every hundred years. However, the power of the fire magic he released was only about the same as a high-explosive grenade. It took five or six seconds to release one, which was far inferior to using a sword. The combat comes effectively and realistically.

This discovery made Rosen a little regretful, but this regret was nothing at all, and he soon became excited again.

‘What a fool I am! I am a top student in materials physics. With such awesome superpowers, I still want to directly control elements to release magic? This is too barbaric and rude. Only ignorant people do this! I am an alchemist! There are balance restrictions in the game to prevent people from messing around, but now in the real world where there are no taboos, I should go and make gunpowder and make guns. No, no, no, if I want to do it, I’ll make electromagnetic guns, no, that’s not right! These are too narrow. There are countless scientific and technological fruits in the industrial world of the earth, and I can pick them at will. How could my thinking be so limited? I can build an engine, but I can't get an Apocalypse tank, which may not be strong enough for a Frost Giant. But I can build an airplane to launch missiles beyond visual range at an altitude of 10,000 meters. What kind of monster can be my opponent? Wait, monster! ’

Rosen's mind instantly returned from the boundless fantasy world to reality.

No matter how much knowledge he has in his mind, it is still the knowledge of the earth. In the world of "Hunter", it may not be applicable. To truly transform it into power, it still needs a lot of practice.

Practice requires money, and even more time, and the monster is right in front of you. He is still a helpless rich young man, and his life is still in danger!

'Up on the second floor is the living room, surrounded by three bedrooms. One is where I sleep, one is Rosen's parents' room, and one is the guest room. The sound seems to be coming from Rosen's parents' room. ’

‘Games are games, reality is reality. There may really be a vampire on the second floor, but it may also be other monsters. Various monsters have different powers and cannot be targeted without investigation. First, I have to determine what kind of monster is coming and I want to go to the second floor to take a look. ’

Although he was still very frightened in his heart, Rosen's strong nerves came into play again. He was not knocked down by fear. He gently took a breath of the mixed air that was full of the smell of blood and the unique musty smell of wooden buildings. He tiptoed Walk towards the second floor corridor.

After taking a step, the wooden stairs made a creaking sound, which was extremely harsh in the silent night.

‘Damn wooden stairs! ’ Rosen’s heart skipped a beat.

He stood motionless, his ears pricked up, and he listened carefully to the movements around him. After a while, there was no abnormality around him, and subtle movements from the second floor continued to come.

"The sound is too loud, you have to step on a solid place."

When raising his feet again, Rosen tried to let his feet land on the joints of the stair planks and slowed down as much as possible.

This time it was much better. Although the sound was still a bit loud, it was no longer so abrupt. Rosen exhaled slowly: "I hope this monster has weak ears, otherwise I will definitely be dead." ’

He continued walking up.

There were 12 wooden stairs leading up from the corner. In order to reduce the noise, Rosen tried to slow down as much as possible. It took him more than 3 minutes to reach the top of the 12 steps. When he reached the second floor, Rosen glanced at the floor and felt something in his heart. There was a sigh: 'It's still a wooden floor. Is this going to kill me?' ’

After thinking about it, Rosen pulled off the fur vest from his shoulders and placed it on the wooden board as a cushion. He took one step at a time and slowly moved towards the place where the abnormal noise came from.

After walking for a while, he stopped again.

'No, the sound came from Rosen's parents' room. The monster must be there too. If you open the door and look, you are seeking death. But there is a balcony in that bedroom. I can crawl through my room window. ’

With this in mind, Rosen adjusted his direction and moved towards his room.

Finally, he moved to the door and opened the door. The door pivoted and made another "squeak" sound. Rosen's teeth hurt when he heard it. He immediately turned his head and looked at the door next to him, fearing that the door in Rosen's parents' room would be opened. The monster was lured out.

After waiting for more than a minute, there was still no abnormal movement. This monster's ears seemed to be really hard to use.

Rosen breathed a sigh of relief and slowly moved into his room.

The window in the room was actually open, and a bright moon hung in the night sky outside the window. The moonlight shone in from the window, illuminating the room very brightly. Rosen put his head in and took a closer look. After making sure that there was nothing foreign in the room, he moved towards the window. past.

Climbing up the window, standing on the windowsill, looking at the wooden balcony less than 1 meter away, Rosen stepped over gently.

This is only the second floor, and the balcony is not high. It is less than 3 meters above the ground. The ground is still soft grass, and it will not break if you jump, so Rosen is not panic at all.

After lightly walking onto the balcony and moving three meters on the wooden floor using his hands and feet, Rosen slowly stood up, his head slightly exposed by the window, and looked into the room through the expensive crystal glass.

A face with burst eye sockets and a livid face suddenly broke into Rosen's eyes!

"Fuck!"

Rosen's head tilted back in fear, and he almost jumped off the balcony out of control.

He immediately retracted his head and leaned his back against the wall, his whole body shaking uncontrollably. It took two minutes before he gathered enough courage again.

‘Although it’s a bit scary, this face seems familiar. By the way, it’s the face of Rosen Laplace’s father. It’s still motionless, so it should be a corpse. ’

The corpse looks horrible, but it is still a dead thing. As long as it is not a monster, then everything is easy to say.

Rosen took a breath, turned his head again, and quietly looked into the window.

This time he was mentally prepared, so he was not frightened and looked more carefully than before. He saw that Rosen's father's body was twisted against the window, his face pressed against the glass, deformed by the pressure, and his eyes were opened so hard that the corners of his eyes were cracked.

He was still wearing pajamas, and there were two bottomless blood holes on his neck. The exposed skin was all pale and pale, and his cheeks and eye sockets were obviously sunken, as if all the liquid in his body had been sucked out.

'There was a pair of blood holes on his neck, about 4 cm apart, and a large amount of blood in his body had disappeared. He was extremely frightened before his death, and it was clearly the appearance of a vampire sucking his blood. '

The glimmer of luck in Rosen's heart almost disappeared.
