The Last Alchemist

"Hu~Hu~~"

The wind in the dock area was howling, and it was as fishy as ever, but before it was the smell of fish, and now it was the smell of rotting corpses.

When Rosen came out of the underground sewer, the sky outside was already completely dark. The temperature by the river was very low, and the breath turned into frost. There was no cloud in the sky, and the cold stars blinked at the desolate ruins on the earth.

"Click~"

Rosen pulled the pistol out of the holster on the side of his leg, and his left hand reached into his waist bag, took out a piece of magic potato from it, put it in his mouth and chewed it gently.

While eating, he carefully observed the situation around the exit until he confirmed that there was no danger at the cave entrance. He walked out of the sewer exit lightly and began to wander around the dock area, hoping to try his luck and bump into a puppet.

Last time, in order to catch the tree demon puppet, he almost fell into the puppet's trap. This time Rosen learned his lesson and kept a low profile along the way, trying not to make any noise.

His luck was not bad. After just over ten minutes, he heard very obvious breathing and heartbeats not far away. They sounded exactly like ordinary people, but in such a ghost place, especially in the middle of the night, it was impossible for ordinary people to appear outdoors, so it could only be a tree demon puppet.

Rosen squatted behind an overturned carriage on the street and listened carefully: "There is only one breathing sound. It is a lone tree demon puppet. Very good."

'This guy is about 30 meters away from me. He should be in a wooden house on the side of the road. It is very likely hiding behind the door. The core of this monster is in the head. I sneak over, cut off the head and leave. There shouldn't be any big noise. '

After roughly rehearsing the action in his mind, Rosen moved lightly in the direction of the puppet.

The distance of more than 30 meters is quite close. Rosen reached the corner of the street in one breath, then held his breath, activated the magic power, and used the magic power to detect the situation on the other side of the corner.

The results showed that there was nothing on the opposite side and it was very safe.

He groped along the wall, and after groping for more than 10 meters along the foot of the wall, he reached the outside of the wooden house.

Here, there was only a thin layer of wood between him and the tree demon puppet.

Rosen held his breath, not making a sound, and then activated his magic power again. The magic tentacles gently passed through the gap in the wood board and reached the other side of the wooden wall.

Rosen expected that he would first use the magic tentacles to confirm the position of the puppet's neck, and then use the template to send a delicate energy burst to the puppet's neck, just like using a scalpel to silently cut off the opponent's neck.

The magic tentacles groped forward little by little, and soon Rosen felt that the air molecules became very active: 'Hmm~ It's the abnormal change caused by the opponent's body temperature. The puppet should be in front. '

The magic tentacles continued to move forward, and soon Rosen determined the exact position of the tree demon puppet.

This guy leaned against the wooden wall, half of his head stuck out of the wooden door, and was looking out. His clothes were very thick, and thick metal plates were embedded on his chest and back.

Seeing this, Rosen had a little doubt in his heart: ‘The target seemed to be wearing metal armor and holding a sword in his right hand. The blade of the sword was 1.4 meters long and more than 15 centimeters wide. He held a two-handed heavy sword in one hand, and held a thick metal square shield in his left hand. This guy doesn’t seem to be a tree demon puppet! ’

He had dealt with tree demon puppets several times. That kind of monster has a stiff body and never uses weapons!

However, there may be exceptions.

Rosen thought about it, and extended the magic tentacles slightly forward, approaching about 10 centimeters behind the target’s neck. Then, Rosen’s mind moved slightly, and the magic pushed the nearby air to the target’s neck.

His movements were very light, and the effect was almost the same as blowing air on the neck.

Think about it, at this time, in this place, if someone blows a breath of cold air on the back of your neck, it might scare you out of a heart attack. If the other party is a human, the reaction will definitely be very intense.

At the moment of "blowing", a muffled "gulp" sound came from the wooden house, followed by the sound of breathing, leaving only "bang bang bang bang" and the sound of heartbeats like drums.

With the help of the magic tentacles, Rosen clearly "saw" that the person in the wooden house suddenly turned his head to look behind him, his neck twisted to the extreme, and his cervical vertebrae even made a crisp "click" sound. Because of this abrupt movement, his body could not control the balance and leaned heavily against the wooden wall.

'Well, this guy is not a tree demon puppet, but a surviving warrior. This probably scared him. ' Rosen was a little regretful and a little curious.

Unfortunately, he still has to continue looking for puppets. Curious, in such a dangerous environment, this warrior has survived to this day.

Thinking of this, Rosen whispered through the wooden wall: "Don't be afraid, man, it's."

Before he finished speaking, there was a "doo" sound from the wooden wall, and the tip of a heavy sword came out from the gap in the wooden board. If Rosen hadn't dodged quickly, this would definitely pierce his head.

'Wow~ decisive and powerful, this warrior is quite strong! 'Rosen understood why this guy could survive to this day. He stepped back two steps and continued: "Man, I'm not a monster."

This time, the warrior in the wooden house did not continue to attack, and a low voice came out: "Who are you?"

"I'm a magician."

"Did you cause the wind behind my neck?"

"Sorry, I just wanted to make a joke."

"Huh~~" A sigh of relief came from the wooden house. After a few seconds, a soldier wearing steel armor appeared at the door of the wooden house. He saw Rosen and looked him up and down: "You look familiar. , I seem to have seen you somewhere. Forget it, it’s not the place to talk outside, come in. "

As he spoke, he moved away from her.

Rosen nodded and walked into the cabin.

‘Squeak~~’

The wooden door was closed, and the steel-armored warrior walked past Rosen. When he reached the inner room of the wooden house, he pushed his hand on the wooden floor, and a half-meter-square hole appeared on the ground.

The armored warrior jumped in first, and after a few seconds, dim candlelight lit up inside the cave entrance. The soldier's deep voice came from inside: "Come in, it's quite safe here."

Rosen jumped in from the hole.

The steel-armored warrior was waiting by the door. As soon as Rosen came in, he immediately closed the wooden door of the cellar, then buckled the large 60 cm long iron shield in his hand on the wooden door, and used that He inserted the huge heavy sword tightly, and then said: "Okay, it should be fine now."

During this time, Rosen looked at the layout of the cellar.

The cellar was very small, less than 4 meters in length and width, and less than two meters in height. Except for a candlestick on the wall, there was almost nothing in the cellar. Soon, his attention turned to the armored warrior.

This guy was quite tall, about 1.9 meters, and very strong. With the steel armor, he looked like a lump of steel, very strong. As for his face, Rosen was shocked after taking a look at it.

"Are you not human?" He subconsciously took two steps back.

The face of the armored warrior was gray-white without any blood, and the pupils were silver-white. The dividing line between the eyes and the whites of the eyes was very blurred. It looked like a pure white eyeball, which was a bit scary.

The steel-armored warrior stood leaning against the cellar wall, his eyes fixed on Rosen's pocket, and asked without answering: "Man, do you have anything to eat with you? How about giving me a bite?"

"What do you want to eat?" Rosen asked vigilantly. At the same time, he quietly mobilized the energy pool. As long as the other party made any changes, he would take action.

The steel-armored warrior licked his dry lips and said hoarsely: "Potatoes, corn, bread, whatever. If you have dried human flesh, I can eat it too. In such a world, I guess I can't live without eating human flesh."

Rosen breathed a sigh of relief, took out three magic potatoes from his pocket and threw them over: "That's all I have. Take them."

The armored warrior took the potato, smelled it, his eyes suddenly lit up, and he immediately started to devour it. He looked really hungry. He could eat three fist-sized potatoes in two bites. 3 potatoes were all eaten in less than a minute.

After eating, the armored warrior licked all the food crumbs on his hands clean, and then sighed with satisfaction: "It's been a long time since I've eaten such delicious food, thank you very much, man. "

Rosen lost his guard and said, "Man, my name is Rosen. What's your name?"

"Fellman." The armored warrior announced his name, and then he suddenly looked at Rosen carefully. After a few seconds of silence, he suddenly said: "Wait, I remember, I have seen you! Just on the bridge. "Come on, you said that a beautiful lady's attendant was here!"

Rosen was stunned by what he said. He couldn't remember what was going on.

The steel-armored warrior became very excited and said repeatedly: "I was the captain of the bridge guard at that time, and I was responsible for the defense of the bridge. By the way, you gave me a lot of money at that time and asked me to help you cross the border! By the way, I found a few iron rods on your carriage, which were similar to the ones you were holding. You said they were handicrafts!"

Speaking of this, Rosen finally remembered. He looked at the armored warrior carefully and finally recognized this guy, but he was even more strange: "Man, your face looks very bad. And , you seem to have become a lot stronger."

Fellman shrugged: "I'm also very surprised about this. On the night of the God's Day, I was attacked by a monster and bitten on my neck. I fainted at that time. When I woke up, the whole Nile Jiade was already destroyed. In the following days, I had no choice but to hide here, and finally found this place. Just now, I was so hungry that I wanted to go find something to eat, but I met you just now. Nearly scared me to death.”

He opened his collar, revealing the healed wound on his neck. Judging from the shape of the wound, the original bite was very severe, almost biting his head off his neck.

"You're really lucky." Rosen couldn't figure out why there was such a change.

Perhaps because he met an acquaintance, Fellman became very emotional: "Man, it's great to see you alive. Are you still serving that beautiful lady? Well~ you are that lady's Attendant. You are alive and in pretty good condition, so the lady must be alive as well. If possible, can you recommend me? I have some strength now and am very willing to serve the lady."

Rosen couldn't tell whether to laugh or cry. He quickly raised his hand to stop Fellman's words: "Okay, okay, stop it."

Fairman immediately stopped talking, but still looked at Rosen expectantly.

Seeing him like this, Rosen couldn't bear to hit him, so he said: "I will take you to the survivor camp first. As for the future, we will talk about it later."

"Oh~ There is a survivor camp, it's great! I always thought I was the only one who survived in the city! These days, I hope to meet a living person every day, but all I meet are monsters! I am almost desperate! Oh, it's great to meet you! Oh~~~ God bless you!" Fehrman danced with joy, excited like a child.

Rosen was still thinking about getting a tree demon puppet, so he said: "Stay here and wait for me, I have something to do. I will come back to find you after I finish my work."

Fehrman immediately said: "I will go with you, I am a pretty good warrior now. These days, I have killed a lot of monsters."

"Help?"

"Yes. In such a ghost place, it is safer to walk with two people than alone, isn't it?" Fehrman said hurriedly. He finally found a living person who could talk, and he didn't want to separate like this.

Rosen thought about it and shook his head: "No, taking you with me will not be good for me."

"Crack!!!"

Before he finished speaking, a terrible explosion sounded from outside into the cellar. The sound was very penetrating, as if a big bomb exploded in the ear, and the two of them subconsciously reached out to protect their heads.

"What happened?!" Feldman was horrified. He immediately walked to the door of the cellar and took down the giant shield and heavy sword.

Rosen was a little unsure: "It sounds like someone is casting magic outside. Let's go out and take a look."
