The Last Alchemist

In the blink of an eye, a month has passed.

During this month, Sunderland Town and the surrounding areas were very peaceful, and the bandits seemed to have disappeared.

Rosen would not waste the rare good time, and he was very busy every day.

During the day, he made various tools and weapons in the alchemy studio of the Baron's Mansion.

This not only fulfilled the agreement with the Baron, but also improved his talent proficiency, killing two birds with one stone.

In his spare time, he either helped the glassmaker Savi answer some questions about making magic mirrors, or instructed Sister Mary and instilled some modern medical knowledge in her.

At night, he taught little Alice to read and write. He taught a lot of things, and as long as he knew the knowledge himself, he would teach little Alice without reservation.

In this kind of cramming teaching, little Alice absorbed knowledge like a sponge absorbing water, and very obvious progress could be seen every day.

In a month, Rosen completed the transaction with the Baron, and also prepared the supplies and weapons for the north.

After a day's rest, early the next morning, a specially made black-covered carriage stopped in the square outside the Baron's Mansion.

At the door of the Baron's Mansion, Baron Draco held Rosen's hand tightly, with a look of emotion: "Master, I really don't want you to leave."

Rosen patted the Baron's big hand and smiled: "Uncle, I just went north to study. I will come back to visit you often if I have the chance in the future, don't worry."

"Well~ Although I said that, the world is so chaotic, I am still very worried. Oh, don't say these depressing words. You cured uncle's illness, saved Sunderland, and left such a powerful weapon. Uncle, I am grateful to you."

As he said, the baron reached into his pocket and took out a small scroll: "Uncle, I know you are not short of money, so I won't give you money. I have a letter of introduction here, you take it."

"Letter of introduction?" Rosen was a little curious.

"There is a three-star magician named Wood in Nirogard, who is considered my friend. He should give me some favors and help you get a place for admission."

This letter of introduction is exactly what Rosen needs, which can save him a lot of trouble.

He took the letter and thanked sincerely: "Thank you, uncle, it helps me a lot."

Baron Draco smiled heartily, took a step back, and waved to Rosen: "Uncle, I can't learn the hypocrisy of women. Just say one thing, Rosen, the door of Sunderland Town is always open to you. If you want, you can regard this place as your home."

"I remember, uncle."

Rosen bowed slightly to Baron Draco, then took little Alice's hand and got on the back of the carriage.

In the carriage, Sister Mary and Anne were already waiting. After they sat down, Rosen said to the coachman, "Let's go!"

"Snap~~"

The coachman whipped the black-topped carriage and it started slowly and steadily, then drove lightly and quickly towards the east gate of Sunderland.

After the carriage disappeared, the butler Matt whispered to Baron Draco, "Master, why don't you try to keep Rosen? As long as he is here, we in Sunderland will have a steady supply of powerful weapons. Then..."

"Fool, stop talking!" Baron Draco waved his hand to interrupt the butler, "I'm not a person who repays kindness with enmity. Besides, how can a small baron like me control an alchemist like Rosen? If he is annoyed, he will detonate a doomsday iron ball, and all of us will go to heaven together!"

"Yes, Master, I'm too stupid." Matt looked embarrassed.

In the carriage, Rosen and his party were not aware of this conversation. After driving for a while, Annie couldn't help but say, "Rosen, the carriage with coil spring shock absorbers is indeed very comfortable to sit in. I have never ridden such a stable and quiet carriage."

Rosen laughed: "Although spring shock absorbers are good, they are not the best. I know more shock absorbers."

"Oh, tell me about it?" Annie asked curiously.

Little Alice sat next to Rosen and pricked up her ears to listen.

Rosen stretched out his hand and said, "In addition to coil spring shock absorbers, there can also be arc spring shock absorbers, air shock absorbers, electromagnetic shock absorbers, etc. If you do it to the extreme, you can even make the carriage run at high speed, and the cup filled with water in the carriage will not spill a drop."

"Is it really that powerful?" Annie opened her beautiful eyes wide, looking unbelievable.

Rosen smiled and nodded.

Little Alice listened and asked in a tender voice, "Brother, the electromagnetic shock absorbers you just mentioned, is it based on the principle of magnets repelling each other at the same level?"

"That's right." Rosen smiled.

"Oh, then air shock absorbers use the elasticity of air to convert energy?"

"Yes. Little Alice is so smart." Rosen praised.

Little Alice's big eyes sparkled: "Brother~Brother, you said that the movement of everything in the world is actually the conversion of energy. Then can we use the law of energy conversion to build a carriage that does not need to be pulled by horses and can run on its own?"

As soon as the voice fell, Sister Mary laughed and scolded: "Silly child, where in the world can a carriage run on its own? Unless some magic is used."

But Anne sighed repeatedly: "Rosen, I really don't know how you teach Alice, I can hardly understand what she said."

Rosen laughed, stretched out his hand and gently pinched Little Alice's plump and rosy cheeks, and praised: "This is really a very wonderful idea, brother likes it very much. How about this, let's start thinking about building a carriage that can run on its own now?"

"Okay, okay!" Little Alice looked excited.

Sister Mary only thought that Rosen was trying to make her daughter happy and just laughed, but she didn't take it seriously. Anne glanced at Rosen thoughtfully, and involuntarily touched the iron thing hanging around her waist.

This iron guy is her new weapon. There are two of them, both of which were built for her by Rosen. They are more powerful than Rosen's spiral spray, and they can fire continuously. One of them attacks accurately and has a long shooting distance. The destructive power of a single point is amazing, and it is called 'Destroy the Sky'. The other one has a short shooting range, but has a wide coverage area and a strong impact, and is called 'Destroy the Earth'.

The combined name of the two iron weapons is "Destruction of Heaven and Earth". This name was given by Rosen. It couldn't be more vulgar, but Anne likes it very much. With these two weapons, she has basically mastered swords and crossbows. gave up.

She couldn't help but be generous in her heart: 'If he can create such a miraculous weapon, who knows, one day he will actually be able to build a horse-drawn carriage. ’

These days, traveling in a carriage is very boring. To relieve their boredom, after chatting for a while, everyone started looking for something to do.

Sister Mary began to fiddle with the tools in her medical kit, while Anne carefully inspected the devastating bullets. As for Rosen, he took out a few parchment rolls and actually designed a new carriage that he could run with little Alice.

Most of the day passed like this, and by about five o'clock in the afternoon, the carriage had driven about 130 kilometers and reached the northern border of the Delen Principality. Further north is the theater of the Parason Empire's Third Northern Expedition.

As long as you walk about 200 miles north in the war zone, you will reach the northern border of the Parason Empire. Less than 20 kilometers north of the border is the Bishui River, and by the river sits the free city of Berkeley, known as the Pearl of the North.

At this moment, the carriage shook slightly and stopped, and the coachman John's voice came from outside the carriage: "Master, something is wrong ahead!"

‘Click~’

Annie immediately grasped the handle of the devastating gun.

Rosen was also shocked. In such troubled times, abnormal situations appeared in the wild. They were either robbers or monsters. If they were not handled correctly, their lives would be in danger. There was no need to be careless at all. He immediately opened the small window in front of the carriage: "What is the specific situation?"

"Look, the road ahead is blocked by several overturned carriages, making it impossible to pass."

Rosen looked over, and sure enough, about a hundred meters away, three carriages were overturned. Many wooden boxes fell next to the carriages. If he looked carefully, he could see many blood-stained corpses lying around the wooden boxes. , vaguely, you can still see a shadow shaking there.

"Master, could those figures be ghouls?" The coachman was a little embarrassed when he spoke.

"Let me take a look." He took out the telescope he made and looked carefully at the carriage in the distance.

This telescope was specially made by him. It had extremely high magnification and everything in the field of vision was very clear. He could also clearly see the shaking shadows.

Not a ghoul, but a person, to be precise, a young woman with black hair.

She was covered in blood, her clothes were torn to pieces, and her body was almost naked. There was a bright steel knife stuck in her stomach, which looked very scary.

Maybe the steel knife missed the vital point. Although the woman was weak, she was not dead. She was struggling to move towards a wooden box. On the ground beside her, there were at least 10 corpses, 3 women and 7 men, lying on the ground. Judging from the clothes, they are obviously divided into two groups. The clothes of one group are made of much better materials and are typical of businessmen. The other group was all men, wearing tattered leather armor and crude weapons lying around. They looked like bandits blocking the road.

After watching for a while, Rosen already knew the situation. He comforted the panicked carriage driver: "Don't be afraid, they are not ghouls, they are just a carriage team that was robbed by robbers. After a fierce fight, both sides basically died, except for one The girl is still alive, but she looks seriously injured.”

"That's good, that's good." The coachman sighed.

When Annie heard that there were survivors, she immediately said: "Rosen, let's save people quickly."

Rosen naturally had no objection, but he did not completely let down his guard: "Annie, everyone is dead, but that girl can survive. It may be a fluke, or it may be a bait deliberately left by someone. In the past, thousands of us Be careful."
