The Last Alchemist

"Young man, how did you do it? How on earth did you do it?"

Sage Niya completely lost her previous calm demeanor, and ripples finally appeared in her emotionless eyes. She stared straight at Rosen's face, as if she wanted to see through Rosen's body and read Rosen directly. soul.

Such a direct look was really scary. Although Rosen was not intimidated, it was not a good thing to have things come to a standstill. After thinking about it, he asked, "Do you really want to know?"

"Are you willing to tell me?" Niya's eyes suddenly lit up.

Rosen shrugged and handed the manuscript in his hand to Niya: "This is my deduction manuscript. All my thoughts are on it. If you want to see it, just take it."

After saying that, Rosen quietly added in his mind: 'If you can understand, I lose. ’

In this manuscript, except for the numbers, which are written in the language of the Kingdom of Kewell, the other operators are all from the Earth, and the reasoning process is not exhaustive. To the natives of this world, there is basically no difference between this thing and cipher text.

Naturally, Niya didn't know what Rosen was thinking. She didn't expect that Rosen would be so easy to talk to. When she took the manuscript, she felt it was very unreal and confirmed to Rosen again: "You won't regret it, right?"

Just now, she saw with her own eyes that Rosen was writing and drawing on this manuscript paper. It was obvious that he was deducing something. Even if the entire cracking process is not completely recorded on these manuscripts, there must be a large number of clues, and they must be filled with extraordinary wisdom. It is really unreasonable for the other party to give such a precious thing without blinking an eye.

Rosen waved his hand: "From now on, these manuscripts are yours, just read them. Even if I regret it later, I have nothing to do with you, and I won't come to you to ask for anything."

"This" Niya lowered her head and glanced at the manuscript paper, which was filled with various numbers and strange operators. She witnessed with her own eyes that Rosen cracked the terrifying destructive toxin, so in her eyes, every character on the manuscript seemed to be the embodiment of truth, constantly waving to her.

It was so precious that it could be called a priceless treasure. Although the other party gave it to her without blinking an eye and without asking for anything in return, she could not remain silent. Otherwise, if this matter spread, people would definitely say that she was... The elder bullies the younger, the elder bullies the younger. Some people may even say that she is greedy!

"What do you want? As long as I have it, I can give it to you."

"I don't want anything, I'll give you the manuscript!" Rosen said very simply.

"This won't work!" Niya insisted.

"Then please don't disturb me for the rest of the time, okay?"

"What kind of reward is this?" Niya was a little confused.

Rosen ignored her. He turned to look at Max and asked, "Master, do you have anything to eat or drink here?"

"Of course, of course, I'll get it for you right away."

Max turned around and ran to a corner of the hall. After a pause, a small door appeared out of thin air in the corner. He walked through the little door and emerged a few minutes later with a large plate of sliced ​​pastrami and a jug of water.

"You can eat as much as you want. There's still not enough." Max's smile was amiable, completely opposite to the sharp and indifferent attitude of the sage Niya.

"Thank you very much, that's enough for now."

Rosen picked up a piece of bacon and tasted it. The meat was a little old, salty, and had a hint of beef. It wasn't very tasty, but it was enough to supplement the nutrition.

He activated his magic power, pulverized the pastrami, mixed it with water, and stirred it into a paste. After heating it slightly to more than 40 degrees, he wrapped it in magic power and put it into Veronica's mouth in small lumps. inside.

Veronica is already somewhat awake. When the meat paste reaches her mouth, she will open her mouth slightly. After the meat paste enters her mouth, she will automatically swallow it.

After feeding for a while, he saw Max still standing beside him without moving, and asked curiously: "Master, are you okay?"

Max rubbed his hands, chuckled, and whispered: "Well. What I want to say is that Niya's temperament is like this. She is cold and indifferent to strangers, but in fact she is not bad. What happened just now, I hope you Don't mind."

Rosen raised his eyebrows: "As long as she doesn't cause trouble for me."

He still had a good impression of Max. Rosen would certainly not embarrass Max when he talked to him in such a low profile.

"That's good, that's good." Max said repeatedly and walked away a little lonely.

Rosen continued to feed beef paste, and when he had finished feeding more than half of it, Veronica's eyelids moved and she opened her eyes. At first, she looked a little dazed, but after taking a few more mouthfuls of beef paste, she completely woke up.

She saw Rosen, with a smile on her face that showed the aftermath of the disaster: "It's great to see you again!"

Her voice was unusually gentle, without the toughness of the past. Her eyes also exuded a soft light, and her eyebrows were arched, no longer as delicate and sharp as before. In short, if Veronica was a proud queen before, now she is a gentle little woman.

This kind of Veronica made Rosen very uncomfortable. He had goosebumps all over his body. In order to cover up his embarrassment, he hurriedly wrapped a ball of beef paste with magic power and fed it to her.

Veronica shook her head slightly and said softly: "I won't eat it, it doesn't taste good."

Her demeanor was almost like that of a little daughter acting coquettishly.

If this look appeared on Lilith or Anne, Rosen would think it was normal, but if it appeared on the proud and powerful dragon girl Veronica, it would be too inconsistent.

Rosen's hand shook slightly, and sweat broke out on his forehead. He hurriedly advised: "Don't be willful. The toxins have caused great harm to your body. You are in urgent need of nutritional supplements. Eat more, and your body will recover." quick."

"Okay then." Veronica opened her mouth obediently.

Mobius on the side was also dumbfounded. After holding on for a while, he finally couldn't hold it in anymore and whispered in Rosen's ear: "Rosen, why does Veronica look weird? Tell me, this Could it be because the poison hasn’t been removed yet?”

When he said this, Rosen was slightly shocked: "It's really possible. No, I have to check again."

Veronica's ears were very good and she heard the conversation between the two clearly. She gritted her teeth in anger and glared at Mobius: "Get away!

I don't want to see you now! "

Mobius was relieved: "It seems normal now."

Rosen on the side was startled by this sudden change and said hurriedly: "You were fine just now, why are you so excited all of a sudden?"

"Go away too! I'm full!" Veronica glared at Rosen again.

"."

Rosen was speechless and could only put the beef paste aside. At the end, he said with confidence: "Then you can eat it yourself when you are hungry."

"You don't have to say that!" Veronica rolled her eyes at Rosen, her attitude completely different from before.

Rosen spread his hands, his forehead filled with question marks.

He had no choice but to follow Mobius, walk to the bench on the other side of the hall and sit down.

After sitting for a while, Mobius raised his head and looked around the hall. He saw Master Max closing his eyes and concentrating, and Sage Niya frowning at Rosen.

No one paid attention to the manuscript given to him, so he leaned into Rosen's ear and whispered: "Rosen, do we really want to accompany them to deal with that tree demon?"

Rosen nodded slightly: "That's for sure. There are so many civilians in this survivor camp. If it is really captured by the tree demon, the tree demon will have tens of thousands of puppets. By then, our camp will definitely be destroyed. "

Mobius spread his hands: "Okay then. But that tree-destroying demon must be very powerful. Have you thought of any way to deal with him?"

"I haven't dealt with the tree demon yet, and I don't know how to deal with it. But the sage seems to know how to deal with it. When the time comes, we will just do what she says."

Mobius's eyes widened: "Do as you say? What if she wants you to die?"

"Hmm~" Rosen turned his head and glanced at Sage Niya, feeling a little worried.

He knew very well that what Mobius said was definitely not nonsense. If the battle situation was unfavorable, Sage Niya might really sacrifice him. He had thought of all the ways to sacrifice, and it was nothing more than using his body as a link to connect. The so-called power of the gods.

Mobius's voice became lower and lower: "Rosen, I know you want to rebuild Nerogard. I also know that the more than 10,000 people in this camp are the key, and we must find a way to save people. But if everyone in your life dies, , then everything is meaningless!”

"What exactly do you want to say?" Rosen asked.

Mobius turned to look at Max again, covered his mouth with his hand, and whispered in Rosen's ear: "I mean, saving your life is the most important thing. The puppets made by that tree demon are so strong." , he must be very scary in person, not to mention there is a powerful and unpredictable person behind him. The monster lord. In my opinion, there is no chance of winning this battle. Since I know that I will lose, why bother to persist? It is better to leave as soon as possible and go to a place where there is no monster threat for the time being, and wait for the opportunity in the future. When we are mature, it is not too late for us to counterattack.”

His words are very wise, wise, and extremely convincing. They are the way of a hero. The only problem is that the more than 300 people in the camp, plus the more than 10,000 people in this illusion maze, will Abandoned and sacrificed.

Rosen was silent.

Mobius asked again: "What do you think?"

Rosen shook his head: "Not good."

Mobius was stunned: "Why?"

Rosen looked calm: "How can we succeed if we just retreat when we are in trouble? Besides, we may not be defeated!"

Mobius sighed: "Hey~ I knew you would say that."

"If you don't want to stay, you can leave."

Mobius said slightly angrily: "Who do you think I am? Since you want to stay, of course I will join the war. I still owe you a big favor. How can I return the favor to you if you are going to die?"

Rosen felt warm in his heart and reached out to pat Mobius on the shoulder, saying nothing.

Now that we are ready to join the war, and the enemy is stronger than ever, we must do our best to prepare for war.

Rosen took out the musket from the holster on the side of his leg, and took out the gun cleaning cloth from his pocket, and began to wipe the gun body carefully. As he wiped it, something suddenly moved in his heart: 'By the way, my freedom talent is about the same. Is it almost full? ’

After getting the Heart of the Sun, he was about to collect 15 talent points. After coming out of the underground waterway, he used bombs to kill a few tree demon puppets. He should have gained something.

If the great magician's second key: the magic contract can be revealed before the battle, his power will be greatly improved, and he will have a much better chance of winning.

He immediately activated the alchemy talent tree and checked it. After taking a look, he sighed inwardly: "It's a pity, it's only 0.6 points away. It would be great if I could kill a few more tree demon puppets."

But the dock area must be full of puppets now. If you go out now, you might run into the tree demon directly. Facing a powerful monster with unknown means alone is no different from seeking death.

"It's too risky to go out now. This matter can't be rushed, but I can't just sit there. I have to make some battle preparations. What can I do now?"

Rosen thought about it and suddenly had an idea: "The tree demon uses the destructive toxin to make puppets. This trick is quite terrifying. If you don't do it well, the number of opponents will increase. And I now know how to detoxify. If I can make a usable antidote, it will definitely be of great help to the battle situation."

Thinking of this, Rosen took out a pen and paper from his waist bag and began to deduce the method of making the antidote.

When Rosen and others were trapped in the illusion underground palace, a large number of monsters quietly gathered outside the ruins of the academy. Most of these monsters are low-level ghouls, water ghosts, etc., but there are also many shadow demons, high-level werewolves, and even undead.

In the watchtower inside the ruins, several sentinels were equipped with telescopes, and they used them to look around regardless of day or night.

When the monsters began to gather, the sentinels immediately discovered something unusual.

As the head of the camp's guards, Anne immediately received the news. She was worried, but remained calm on the surface: "How many monsters are coming? Which monsters are the most numerous?"

The sentinel replied truthfully: "The majority are ghouls, accounting for the vast majority, about 400 or so, and there are some water ghosts, about 100 or so. There are also high-level werewolves and undead, but the number is very small, no more than 10, and the leader is a shadow demon."

Annie's heart moved, this number is a bit small, but she was a little worried that the news was inaccurate, and continued to ask: "Is the news confirmed?"

"Very sure. Those monsters gathered in a square 2 kilometers away. They didn't expect to be seen by us, so they didn't do anything to cover up."

Hearing this, Anne smiled: "Oh~ Very good, you go down and continue to be alert."

Back in the wilderness, she and Rosen repelled the charge of nearly 200 ghouls and killed a powerful giant ghoul lord. Now, with the solid outer walls of the fortress, coupled with powerful firearms and well-trained musketeers, there is no pressure to deal with a mere 500 low-level monsters.
