The Last Alchemist

Rainy night.

People roared loudly and strode towards the stone house, like an army on the march.

The movement suddenly became louder.

The young magician on the balcony was startled. He immediately released a low light spell on the ground in front of him. With the faint light of this spell, he finally saw the two corpses on the ground clearly, and his heart thumped: " Oops, I killed the wrong person!”

Things got serious. Seeing the crowd getting closer and closer to the stone house, the young magician was flustered. He was stunned for a few seconds. He turned around and ran back to the hall on the first floor, shouting as he ran: "No! No! Those civilians are rebelling." "

After a few shouts, everyone in the hall was woken up by him.

Rosen was sleeping very deeply. He didn't wake up at first. He only felt that there was a lot of noise around him. After a while, he felt someone pushing him hard, shouting something while pushing, and the voice was very familiar, as if it was Lilith.

‘Did something happen? ! ’

He felt excited in his heart and sat up suddenly.

He saw that Anne, Lilith, Mobius, and the magician Tarot were all beside him. Not far away, all the magicians in the hall, whether injured or not, had all woken up, and everyone was watching. he. It was very noisy outside the stone house, as if there were many people shouting.

"What happened?" Rosen asked hurriedly.

A young magician walked up, lowered his head and said, "For some reason, the civilians outside the house rebelled."

"Rebellion?" Rosen wiped his face vigorously and woke up completely. He listened carefully to the movement outside the house. After listening for a while, he frowned slightly and said, "It's raining so heavily. Why didn't you wake me up?"

"It just rained for a while. Maybe it will stop later. Besides, we don't have any place for the civilians to take shelter from the rain. What will happen to them if they get wet?" the young magician said in a low voice.

"Nonsense!" Lilith on the side couldn't bear to listen and scolded sternly.

Rosen rubbed his eyebrows vigorously, stood up and said, "Open the door and let someone come in to take shelter from the rain."

"Wait!" Magician Tarot took a step forward and said urgently: "Rosen, there are more than 800 people outside. The room is only so big, and it can squeeze in more than 100 people at most. Besides, it's so late at night, in case there is someone What if the monster blends in with the crowd?”

"It is indeed a problem." Rosen nodded in agreement. He thought for a moment and said, "Then let the children, women, old people, and the injured come in to take shelter from the rain first."

"But..." Tarot wanted to say something else.

Rosen waved his hand to stop him: "No, open the door now! Lilith, please move the injured magician out of his position quickly and make more space."

"Okay." Lilith responded, turned around and waved to a few young magicians, and the group began to get busy.

"I'm going to help too." Annie followed Lilith.

Rosen walked to the door of the stone house, waved his hand gently, and the boulder blocking the door slowly moved aside, and then he opened the door.

As soon as the door opened, a stream of cold water vapor hit his face, and Rosen couldn't help but shiver.

There were already people standing outside the door, and the nearest person was less than 5 meters away from the stone door. Rosen looked over and saw a crowd of people. Everyone looked angry and looked like they might rush to attack at any time.

Rosen felt a little strange. It was not their fault that it was going to rain. Why did everyone look so angry?

He raised his voice and shouted, "Quiet! Quiet!"

I shouted several times, but it had no effect at all, and the crowd was still extremely noisy. Rosen listened carefully to their words and heard words such as 'Hand over the murderer, why should he kill?'

'kill? What's going on? Rosen was a little confused. He looked around the crowd and saw several people carrying two corpses, one big and one small. There was a big burnt hole in the body. Caused by ray magic.

Rosen's heart moved: "Damn it, that magician just didn't tell the truth!"

Thinking of this, he immediately called to the young magician who reported the news behind him: "Lantes, come here and tell me what happened?"

The young magician lowered his head and walked over hesitantly.

"What happened to the bodies of the mother and daughter?" Rosen asked.

"Well. I. I asked them to stop, but they didn't listen. The rain was so heavy that I couldn't see clearly for a moment. I just thought it was an incoming monster. Monsters are very fast, so I used it when I was anxious. A scorching ray." The young magician said in a low voice.

Rosen understood and suddenly felt that this matter was very difficult.

There is nothing wrong with what the magician Lanster did, and the woman just loved her daughter passionately, and both sides were right. Deal with Lanster and chill the magician. If we don't deal with it, the people will be furious. If one thing goes wrong, the situation will intensify and the consequences will be unpredictable.

Just as Rosen was hesitating, Lilith appeared behind him at some point. She whispered: "Rosen, there is no right or wrong, but you must make a choice immediately."

"How to choose?" Rosen was grasping at a life-saving straw.

"I can't help you. Because I don't know either." Lilith smiled bitterly.

Rosen glanced at the frightened Lanster, then turned to look at the angry people.

The public's mood has become somewhat out of control. People are constantly pushing forward. The person at the front is only 3 meters away from Rosen. Things may get out of control at any time.

He must make a decision immediately!

Rosen's heart skipped a beat, and he suddenly reached up to the sky, and a dazzling light appeared on his hand.

Ordinary people have a natural sense of awe for magic. When the vision appeared, the people in the front row stopped immediately and subconsciously retreated.

But when they retreated, the people behind them were still pushing forward, and all kinds of roars came from the crowd.

"The magician is going to kill again!"

"We have more people, they have fewer people, don't be afraid, charge!"

"Kill the magician!"

A riot occurred, and the crowd began to rush forward like a tide, and the scene instantly became extremely chaotic.

Facing the crowd that suddenly fell into chaos, Rosen's heart sank suddenly: "No, someone is secretly doing bad things in the crowd!"

At this moment, the super fast reaction speed helped him a lot. In his eyes, the crowd did not rush over, but "moved" over little by little.

There were many and mixed roars from the crowd, but Rosen glanced and saw several faces with bad intentions.

This is the enemy!

Inciting emotions and creating riots, you can kill!

Since it is an enemy, Rosen will not hesitate.

He stared at the dodging figures in the crowd, and the energy in the energy pool surged out.

This energy was divided into two parts, one of which pushed the air in front of him, creating a strong wind that pushed outward.

This wind was very strong, but it was not an explosive impact.

Under the push of this strong wind, the crowd rushed forward and stopped 2 meters away from Rosen.

The other part of the energy "gently" pushed the four alloy bullets that "jumped" out of the waist bag. These "bullets" flew out, crossed the crowd, and hit four targets respectively.

"Plop~Plop~"

The four people fell to the ground, and the inexplicable roars in the crowd disappeared immediately.

At this time, Rosen continued to release a burst of energy and exploded towards the sky.

"Boom~"

A loud sound like a landslide appeared.

The moment before, people were still incited and their blood was boiling. After the loud noise, the blood instantly cooled down a lot, and most people subconsciously stopped.

Rosen then shouted: "Quiet!"

The world was quiet, with only the sound of rain between heaven and earth.

Seeing that the situation was under control, Rosen said sternly: "Everyone retreat, retreat 10 meters, otherwise, my magic will kill people!"

People suddenly remembered that the magician in front of them was a terrifying existence that made monsters tremble. They were just ordinary people, why should they fight this man?

The blood that had just been stirred up quickly cooled down, and people began to retreat silently.

After retreating 10 meters, Rosen said again: "Stand still!"

Everyone stood still, looking at Rosen with fear in their eyes.

Rosen continued: "Now, listen to my judgment!"

He pointed at the magician Lanster: "This magician accidentally killed the mother and daughter. Although he did nothing wrong, he acted rashly and should be punished. Annie!"

"I'm here!" Annie came up.

"Flog him 30 times!" Rosen said.

Hearing this result, Lilith remained silent.

Magician Tarot immediately walked to Rosen and asked in a low voice: "Lanster did nothing wrong, why punish him?"

Lanster saw someone backing him up, and said with his neck stiff: "Rosen, I did nothing wrong! Besides, you are not a magician of the academy, you are not qualified to punish me!"

That's not all.

Another voice came from the crowd: "He killed someone, but he only got 30 lashes? Are our lives so worthless?"

"Killing someone means paying with his life!"

"Killing someone means paying with his life!"

Several people in the crowd immediately responded, and people's emotions were stirred up again, and a commotion began to occur.

The situation suddenly became very complicated.

At this moment, Rosen deeply felt that being a leader was much more complicated than doing scientific research. More importantly, he had no experience in dealing with such things, and he had no eloquence in debate.

'Can I only suppress him by force? 'He thought to himself.

Because of the habit brought by scientific research in his previous life, he always used absolute experimental evidence to make people irrefutable. Force, such a forced action, was basically not considered by him, but now, it seemed that this was the only solution.

Just as he was hesitating, Lilith's whisper suddenly came to his ear: "Rosen, it's time to establish your authority!"

Hearing this, Rosen was shocked and no longer hesitated.

Originally, he wanted to evolve slowly, but now the situation forced him to use thundering means.

He looked at Taro and said coldly: "Did I allow you to speak?"

Taro was stunned: "Why do you want to allow it?"

Rosen's mind moved, and energy surged out and injected into the air, and the air suddenly turned into a glowing air whip.

This invisible whip was waving and whipped directly on the magician Taro.

"Snap!" With a crisp sound, the magician Taro's robe was whipped to pieces on the spot, and he himself rolled to the ground, twitching all over, foaming at the mouth, and his appearance was extremely embarrassed.

A respectable magician beat someone without hesitation, and beat him so hard. This scene was quite terrifying.

Everyone was shocked and speechless for a while.

After beating him, Rosen glanced at Lanster, then turned to look at the crowd and said coldly: "Is there anyone who disagrees with my judgment? Stand up!"

The crowd was silent.

After waiting for three seconds, seeing that no one spoke, Rosen said to Anne: "Execute!"

Anne nodded, stretched out her hand to push Lanster to the wall, then took out a rope to temporarily use as a whip, and began to whip him, making a "crackling" sound.

At first, Lanster tried not to make a sound. After a few beats, the clothes on his back were torn by the rope, revealing his thin underwear. Lanster finally couldn't help it and started to cry out in pain.

A magician couldn't bear it anymore and stepped forward to persuade him in a low voice: "Master Rosen, this..."

"Huh?" Rosen glanced at him.

The magician was silent immediately.

Soon, after 30 whips, Lanster couldn't stand up anymore. He lay on the ground, his body trembling constantly, and blood could be clearly seen on the clothes on his back. He looked horrible.

Seeing that the high-ranking magician was beaten like this, everyone was speechless.

Rosen slowed down his tone and said in a gentle voice: "It's cold on a rainy night, but there is limited space in the stone house. It's impossible for everyone to go in to take shelter from the rain. Now, children, women, the elderly, and the injured, come in to take shelter from the rain. The remaining men, build a temporary awning with me."

This is fair, and no one objected.

Soon, about 200 old and weak people were selected from the crowd and entered the stone house. Rosen led hundreds of strong men into the rainy night, collecting usable wooden boards, branches, and pieces of cloth from the ruins, and built a rain shelter against the walls of the stone house.

In the stone house, old Claude and Vincent, one old and one injured, huddled in a corner to roast a fire.

In the warmth of the fire, old Claude slowly recovered, his face rosy, he glanced at the figure busy in the rainy night, and whispered to Vincent beside him: "Well~ the hero defeated the venomous snake."

Vincent was still worried: "It's only temporary. This rain is an accident, and our real problem is still food."

Claude smiled and said: "Vincent, have more confidence in your friend. I have seen his ambition, and he will definitely do his best to solve the food problem."
