Chapter 5 Thirty-eight

"Edward Elric, Alphonse Elric."

Liu Mengchao nodded slowly and whispered the name of the person sitting in front of him.

"How much do you really know about the Philosopher's Stone?"

Before Liu Mengchao's buttocks could warm up, Edward's question had already blurted out. His golden eyes were bright, and he did not hide his eagerness.

"You don't know much." Liu Mengchao narrowed his eyes slightly and looked at Alphonse who was using alchemy to repair the battlefield in the distance. He curled his lips and said with a smile, "Your brother is being manipulated by you like this."

, don’t you feel any guilt in your heart?”

"We don't believe you yet...at least neither of us want to believe you now."

Alphonse's voice also came from behind Liu Mengchao at this time. The tall armor made a creaking sound and sat next to Edward.

"Um."

Liu Mengchao nodded slowly, squinted his eyes and thought carefully for a while, then raised his head again.

"What is the purpose of your coming here?"

"The Philosopher's Stone." Edward said slowly, "Our friends in the center told us that Lior was originally just a desolate town, but recently it has suddenly become populated again. The most important thing is..."

"There is a new religion here, we suspect..."

"For any religion to rise, there is an essential condition." Liu Mengchao didn't wait for Brother Eric to finish speaking, he smiled and nodded and said, "Idol worship. And the necessary condition for creating idol worship is a miracle.

.It seems like the two of you are very much in tune with mine."

Edward nodded slightly, agreeing with Liu Mengchao's words.

"The Philosopher's Stone, the Philosopher's Stone, the Heavenly Stone, the Great Alchemy Elixir, the Red Sky Dora, and the Fifth Entity, these names all point to things in the legend."

"That is an item that can violate the principles of alchemy." Liu Mengchao nodded slowly, "Equivalent exchange requires the alchemist to convert between substances, but the Philosopher's Stone can completely violate this law."

"In other words, as long as I have the Philosopher's Stone, maybe my body..." Edward said, slowly turning his head to look at Alphonse sitting next to him, "and my brother's body will recover. This is

What it means for us two brothers to keep traveling around this country."

Liu Mengchao already knew Edward's purpose before he came to this world. However, the anime Fullmetal Alchemist is really a bit unfamiliar to Liu Mengchao. After all, this anime is completely written for men.

There are too few women's scenes in it.

Thinking of this, the corners of Liu Mengchao's mouth couldn't help but curl up.

"You are also doubting the situation here in Lior, right? The person who has a bishop who can perform miracles must have a high probability of possessing the Philosopher's Stone. In other words... he also controls the ability of you two brothers to recover.

The key to the body.”

"What about you, Liu Mengchao? Why do you want to use the Philosopher's Stone?" Edward's eyes suddenly became sharp, and he looked directly at Liu Mengchao and asked, "You don't have any flaws on your body. You don't even have any physical flaws.

Damage. In other words, if you really see the Door of Truth, then you don't even pay any toll."

"This does not comply with the principle of equivalent exchange, does it?" Liu Mengchao nodded slowly, stood up under the gaze of Brother Edward. After thinking for a while, he said again, "It does not mean that I have nothing.

Paying, after all...I also paid a lot of tolls to be able to come to this world."

Yes, it was indeed a hefty toll. When Liu Mengchao thought about it again, he felt that the costs were really scary.

In the enhancement of Devil May Cry, except for the abilities of the Gunslinger, everything was paid as tolls. Not only that, even the geass originally owned by Liu Mengchao and the abilities of the Wandering Blade of the God of War Kratos were taken away. Although as a toll,

After the exchange, or the reward after seeing the Gate of Truth, Liu Mengchao can also use alchemy directly like Edward without the help of the alchemy formation, but...

This ability is still a bit useless for Liu Mengchao.

"A lot of my abilities were taken away from me." Liu Mengchao curled his lips and said slowly, "Besides, I still can't figure out the purpose of my coming to this world."

"When you come to this world, you are not from this world?" When Edward heard Liu Mengchao's words, he was stunned for a moment, and then he burst into laughter.

"You are really a person who is unwilling to tell the truth! But no matter what, we both have a common purpose, and maybe we can exchange information about the Philosopher's Stone we each have."

Exchange information on the Philosopher's Stone?

Liu Mengchao's brows furrowed slightly, and he slowly swept his eyes over Brother Edward and towards the distant and blue sky.

The fundamental reason why he came to this world was the last transaction that Chu Zhi told him. Although he didn’t know what Chu Zhi wanted to trade with him, but if he followed the ideas of the two brothers Edward, no, it should be said that it was a smooth transaction.

From the perspective of the world view of the Fullmetal Alchemist world, the most precious thing in this world is the Philosopher's Stone they just talked about.

Before the final meeting with Chu Zhi, try to have as many bargaining chips as possible, which is what Liu Mengchao will do now. If you don’t know what the other party wants, then let yourself have as many chips as possible!

Thinking of this, Liu Mengchao calmed down his mind again, twitched the corner of his mouth at Brother Edward, and laughed.

"Speaking of which, if the two of you were in the eyes of a caring person, I'm afraid someone would have discovered it a long time ago, right?" Liu Mengchao said as he slowly stood up from the bar.

Edward and Alphonse looked at Liu Mengchao who stood up with some confusion, and opened their mouths. Before the words could come out of their mouths, a shocking scene had already appeared.

Liu Mengchao, who was originally wearing a white robe, slowly put on a white hood, and then disappeared into the entire ocean like a drop of water.

This is a noisy street. Originally, the street was full of people coming and going, full of devout believers. But Liu Mengchao... who was originally incompatible with this city, seemed to have become one of these devout believers.

, after three steps and two steps, no one can find him anymore!

"What a weird ability!" Edward looked at Alphonse sitting next to him, frowning tightly, "If this person named Liu Mengchao hadn't used alchemy, I would even think that he must be an assassin.

…”

"An assassin with bloody hands."

Alphonse nodded slightly, and the huge armored head made a crunching sound.

"Two young brothers..."

While the Edward brothers were puzzled by each other, the owner of the hotel actually walked up to the bar and raised his hand.

"The gentleman named Liu Mengchao just took away a bottle of wine and said it would be sent to the accounts of the two of you."

"Alcohol? I can't tell, Liu Mengchao is still an alcoholic! We will pay whatever the boss wants." Edward laughed and said without hesitation. He was originally a state alchemist and enjoyed special research funds provided by the state.

As well as various privileges, the price of a bottle of wine is simply not worth mentioning for Edward's salary.

"Chenghui, my brother's total is thirty-eight thousand senzi!"

The boss squinted his eyes and was about to smile. This bottle of wine was the most expensive bottle in his store and was specially used to deceive people. He didn't expect that although these two brats seemed to have no money, they were so

of boldness.

"Thirty thousand...eight thousand!?"

The corner of his mouth twitched slightly, and Edward turned his head to look at Alphonse. Alphonse turned his head and stared at Edward. The two of them looked at each other with their big eyes facing each other, holding their breaths in unison.

"Boss, is there a discount?"

Edward said pitifully.
