The Last Alchemist

As the night progressed, the noise in Nerogard City gradually subsided, and everything became peaceful.

But on the top floor of the college fortress, the lights in Rosen's study were always on. In the study, Rosen was lying on his back on a large chair, staring at the electric light on the ceiling without blinking, thinking about something.

I don't know how long it took, but there was a gentle knock on the study door, and Annie's voice came in: "Rosen, it's very late at night, why don't you rest?"

Rosen's thoughts moved slightly, magic power surged out, and he opened the study door: "I can't sleep. Annie, can you come in and sit with me for a while?"

Anne walked in and closed the door. She was still wearing the leather armor of the guard captain, and she had weapons on her waist and sides of her legs. She was obviously still patrolling before.

Rosen sighed in his heart and whispered: "Annie, you have worked hard during this time."

All the musketeers in the city were trained by Anne. During this period, she woke up the earliest and went to bed last every day. She obviously lost a lot of weight, and her originally round chin became a bit pointier.

Annie walked to the leather chair against the wall and sat down, smiling and saying: "It's okay. Besides, my body works hard, but my brain is not tired. You look leisurely, but you rack your brains all day long, so you are not necessarily better than me." It feels better. Now, you have something to worry about."

Rosen laughed: "I knew I couldn't hide it from you."

"Can you tell me?" Annie asked.

Rosen nodded: "During the lecture, the young man with the white armor and giant sword said that several cities around Nerogard City had united and prepared to besiege us. I thought about it carefully and felt that although it was a bit exaggerated, it is not impossible. Sexual.”

Wealth is so exciting. The amount of gold, silver and jewelry gathered in Nirogard City is very large, with more than 50 tons of gold alone. This wealth is so huge that no lord on the continent can resist its temptation.

Anne also knew everything about the situation in the city, and naturally knew that Rosen's worries were justified. She whispered: "Rosen, are you worried that we will fail?"

"No, I believe that the strength in the city is enough to resist the invaders. Even if the Kewell Kingdom's army comes in person, it will not be a fear." Rosen shook his head.

"Are you worried that too many casualties would cause civil strife in the city?" Anne asked again.

Rosen still shook his head: "Since it is a war, there will definitely be casualties. But no matter how hard we fight, the casualty rate can never be higher than that of monsters attacking the city, right? We people have all experienced that catastrophe, and our ability to withstand casualties is not ordinary. The ground is high. If we really fight head-on, those invaders will definitely collapse first."

Anne was a little puzzled: "If that's the case, then there's nothing to worry about. In my opinion, as long as the fleet really dares to come down the Bishui River, dozens of thunder cannons can be launched together, and the enemy can be reduced to pieces in an instant. "

"I'm afraid it's not that simple. Who is outside the door?" Rosen suddenly shouted at the study door.

There was a soft knock on the study door, someone pushed it open from the outside, and then three people walked in. The one walking at the front was Veronica, followed by the red-haired woman, and the big man in black armor at the back.

After the three of them walked into the study, Veronica pointed to the red-haired woman: "Her name is Monica, my sister, and she is also from Dragon Valley. This is Adams, a berserker. He comes from Black Crow Castle in the snowy fields of the north. They all have something to say to you.”

After her introduction, the red-haired woman and the strong man in black armor saluted Rosen and called him master.

Rosen pointed to the chairs by the wall: "Sit down, sit down and talk."

The three of them sat separately, and Veronica sat next to Annie. Monica and Adams sat on the other side. After sitting down, Monica spoke first: "I came here this time. First, I want to see my sister. Secondly, I want to see the magic master who defeated Oramson. As for the third, I want to see my sister. The leader, my father, had a message. As for this lecture, I just came to listen to it, but I didn’t expect that the harvest was far greater than I expected. It was an unexpected surprise.”

Rosen folded his fingers in front of him and said in a nonchalant manner: "You have seen the man, and you have listened to my thunder and lightning lecture. Now let's get straight to the point and tell me the message you brought."

Monica smiled and said, "This is natural."

She sat up straight and said with a serious face: "The leader of Dragon Valley, the 8th generation Dragon King asked me to tell you that Nerogard is in great danger, whether it is secular forces or alien forces, all are facing The city's wealth awaits . The Dragon King said that Dragon Valley does not want to be an enemy of the magicians of Nerogard, nor does it want this city of wisdom to disappear. Therefore, if you are willing, Dragon Valley is willing to become an ally with Nerogard City and treat it together. foreign enemy."

After finishing her message, Monica looked relaxed and asked, "Master Rosen, what do you think?"

Rosen's expression did not change, and he could not see any thoughts. He asked: "There are no allies in the world without a reason. Tell me, what does your father want to get from the City of Wisdom?"

Monica smiled and said: "Master has insight and can hide nothing from you. As for what Longgu wants, it is nothing more than the word 'wisdom'. My father said that if you can share with Longgu the preparation and usage of thunder potion, , Longgu will do its best to help you resist foreign enemies no matter the cost."

As soon as she finished speaking, the black-armored man Adams also said: "The Lord of Black Crow Castle also means the same thing. Of course, this is the Lord's idea, not mine. Master, if you don't dislike it, you are willing to accept me." As a disciple. I will leave Black Crow Castle immediately and join Nerogard."

Adams' face was very sincere, and when he looked at Rosen, his eyes were extremely eager, the kind of fanaticism you would see when you see your idol.

Rosen reached out and knocked on the table and asked: "If I don't want to share, what will happen to Dragon Valley and Black Crow Castle?"

Monica sighed: "If this is the case, it would be a great pity. Long Gu will have to join the joint army to attack Nerogard City together."

Adams also nodded: "Our castle master means the same thing."

"Why?" Rosen asked with a smile.

Monica said: "Because the thunder potion and thunder gun you invented are so powerful, it allows mortals to easily have the power to fight against aliens. If Long Gu remains neutral, let others obtain this power. , then Longgu will be in an extremely dangerous situation, Master. Longgu doesn’t want to be your enemy, he just wants to protect himself.”

Adams nodded again: "Our castle master means the same thing. Of course, it has nothing to do with me."

Anne had been sitting next to her silently. At this moment, she couldn't help but ask: "Miss Monica, I want to ask, what kind of power does the person who joins the coalition army have this time?"

Monica thought for a while and said: "Originally I shouldn't say it, but in order to show the sincerity of the alliance, I can tell you some news that I know. This time the joint army is ostensibly led by the Free City of Berkeley. Taking the lead in mobilizing forces, including Glendon City, White Rock City, Pegasus City, Alder and other fifteen cities, the Lord of Berkeley sent 8,000 troops, of which 6,000 were from the other cities. 13,000 troops were dispatched. The total number was more than 20,000. In the dark, there were a large number of high-level aliens, including advanced werewolves, undead, iron-skinned orcs, undead, etc. Not only were these alien forces crowded into the army, They are also lurking around Nerogard City, waiting for opportunities. All in all, this is an organized robbery against Nerogard City, not only to rob money, but also to rob craftsmen and wisdom. "

After hearing this, Anne was horrified and tightly grasped the handle of the gun with both hands. She realized that she had greatly underestimated the strength of her opponent.

Veronica was also shocked and couldn't help but ask: "Sister, how could things happen to this point? Aren't the Flame God Cult and us aliens mortal enemies? How can they join forces?"

Monica spread her hands: "Sister, isn't it obvious? It's because Nerogard looks the easiest to bully, and she's also extremely rich. She looks like a frail commoner woman, but she wears gold and silver. The jewels were taken at night, who would he snatch them from if not her?”

Veronica could naturally understand the reason. She sighed and turned to look at Rosen, waiting for him to make a decision.

There was no anger or resentment on Rosen's face, instead it was full of regret and pity.

Veronica couldn't understand Rosen at this time, and couldn't help but ask: "Rosen, what do you think?"

Monica said: "Master Rosen, you saved Olamson's life, and Dragon Valley owes you a favor. So, no matter what decision you make, when Nerogard is breached in the future, as long as you say , the warriors of Dragon Valley will do their best to protect you and leave Nerogard safely. No matter where you want to go, we will not interfere."

Adams also said: "Master, I, Adams, am the same. I will definitely protect your safety with all my strength."

Rosen finally spoke, and he let out a long sigh: "Hey, the continent is in chaos and wars are raging. It is naturally a paradise for the powerful and ambitious, but for ordinary civilians, it is no different from hell."

When these words were said, only Anne in the room understood what Rosen was thinking. She sighed softly and said in a deep voice: "Yes, as a hunter, I hunt monsters all over the mainland. I have seen hanging people hanging on them. I have seen huge trees piled into mountains Ordinary civilian corpses have also been seen, including those of the Flame Cult, Kings of Powers, Blood Rose, Wolf Valley, Valley of the Dead, Dragon Valley, and Black Crow Castle, all of which were lying on the bodies of the weak. A blood-sucking, flesh-eating devil!”

These words were extremely sharp and merciless, even the three strangers present scolded him.

Veronica looked sad after hearing this.

But Adams yelled: "Hey, why are you scolding me like a girl? Why did I, Black Crow Castle, offend you?"

Monica's face became very cold: "Miss Anne, today I respect you as Master Rosen's friend, so I tolerate your words. But I still want to advise you, don't eat food indiscriminately, don't talk indiscriminately, be careful of provoking A fatal disaster!"

Anne snorted coldly and did not argue with her. She looked at Rosen: "Rosen, no matter what decision you make, I will stand with you!"

Rosen smiled slightly, stood up from the chair, looked from Adams to Monica, and then said: "Both of you, go back. Get ready for the next battle."

Monica's expression changed. Before she could say anything, Veronica said first, "Rosen, don't make a decision in a hurry, okay? Think about it carefully. At least Longgu can become our ally."

She looked at Rosen pleadingly, hoping he would change his mind.

Suddenly, Monica laughed loudly, her eyes turned blood red, and fine scales appeared on her face and hands: "Sister, you are still the same as before, weak and easy to bully! I, a woman from the Dragon Clan, have never bowed my head to ask for help. Since he refuses to join forces, he is an enemy. If you beg him like this, you are losing face to Longgu! "

She waited for Veronica with disdain, then turned to stare at Rosen: "Young man, you are indeed very powerful, but no matter how strong you are, you are only one person! Even if you can protect yourself, you can protect yourself." Can everyone in Nerogard protect this delicate stalker beside you? No, you can’t, and you will pay a heavy price for your arrogance soon!”

After saying that, the red shadow flashed, and the study window was pushed open heavily. Immediately afterwards, a sharp laughter came from the window. The laughter got farther and farther, and finally disappeared.

Monica is gone.

Adams was left in the study.

Adams scratched his head, sighed, and said: "Master Rosen, I respect you very much, and I sincerely want to learn the ability to control lightning from you. But now that you are talking like this, it really makes me sad. I This person, once he gets sad, he wants to destroy something, otherwise he will always feel unhappy."

With a slight movement of his mind, Rosen's hand was wrapped with a layer of jumping electric light. The air crackled and an extremely spicy aura suddenly filled the entire study.

"I have heard many legends about berserkers. Once a berserker gets angry, he will fight endlessly until his anger is vented. I believe that berserkers have very terrifying power, but, I also believe that I Thunder and lightning can help you vent your anger easily, so go ahead and do whatever you want, but don’t blame me for being ruthless.”

Adams's expression changed, he licked his dry lips, and chuckled: "Master, I'm joking with you. I respect you so much, how could I smash something here? If I want to smash it, it will also be smashed elsewhere. ”

"Please do it!" Rosen pointed to the window.

Adams had no choice but to jump from the window.

He left too.

There were only three people left in the room.

Veronica's eyes were red, and she turned to ask Rosen: "Is there really no room for redemption?"

Rosen nodded: "The reason why the mainland is in such chaos is because there are too many strong people who cannot obey anyone, so they fight endlessly. In the end, ordinary civilians are always the ones who suffer. Now, since these people come together to take my idea, It just gave me a chance.”

Veronica's face turned pale when she heard this: "Are you planning to kill all the enemies?"

Others may find this unbelievable, but Veronica is familiar with Rosen's temperament. Now that he has spoken, it means that he is already sure.

Naturally, she would not sympathize with other people, but Ryugu would also join the joint army and she couldn't help but watch all this happen.

Rosen shook his head: "That's not the case. Of course, the final result depends on whether these people are smart."

After saying that, he waved his hand and said, "You two must be tired too, go and have a rest. Trust me, everything will be fine."

After the two women left, Rosen sat down on the chair again, picked up a pen, and wrote an extremely concise and beautiful mathematical formula on the manuscript. At the same time, the Valley of Doom that he had experienced in the underground dark city came to mind. .

‘Strong radiation, a lot of radioactive elements. Phew~ It’s time to show your true power! ’
