Chapter 25 We are together(1/2)

Seen it?

Brother Edward subconsciously held his breath and fell silent. His eyes invariably shone in the dim environment, trying not to miss every detail that might have been missed in Liu Mengchao's words.

"Where?"

Edward opened his mouth and asked directly.

"Here."

Liu Mengchao lightly stomped his feet on the ground. Liu Mengchao's meaning was so clear. He discovered that the place where humans were made was neither far away nor the horizon. It was here, where his feet were.

"Why here?"

Edward looked at Liu Mengchao and raised his feet.

Lifting it up, then putting it down, his feet stepped on the dry land, splashing small dust. He also stamped his feet like Liu Mengchao.

"This is it." Liu Mengchao looked into Edward's eyes, but a smile began to appear in his eyes. He grinned, squinted his eyes, and nodded slightly at Edward, who was staring straight at him.

"Because there is something here that you can't find anywhere else."

"Philosopher's Stone...?"

Edward protracted his voice, with a hint of uncertainty in his voice. He had some doubts about why things turned out like this. The so-called Philosopher's Stone was obviously something that shouldn't appear in the world. But now it has.

Appeared in front of him, and this small red stone was once obtained by Liu Mengchao.

"Small stones are very useful. This is not just my feeling. They think so too." Liu Mengchao spread his palms and let his eyes wander around the square inches, as if the Philosopher's Stone was still there, still there.

Quietly waiting for himself to be used by Liu Mengchao.

Do they think so too?

This was another piece of news revealed by Liu Mengchao. Edward narrowed his eyes slightly and carefully tasted Liu Mengchao's words. They also thought the same, what were they thinking? The Philosopher's Stone should be very useful, why?

It’s easy to use. Have they ever used it before, or know about the Philosopher’s Stone?

"The Philosopher's Stone is obviously just a stone that exists in legends. The bishop of the Rete Cult was able to obtain it. He is really lucky to be admired."

Liu Mengchao raised the corner of his mouth and smiled again.

I see!

Edward raised his head suddenly. He first glanced at his brother Alphonse, and when he saw his brother's two red lights and shadows made of souls burning towards him like flames,

Edward nodded slowly.

The thing is that simple. Liu Mengchao's last words were a reminder to himself! There is nothing wrong at all! The Philosopher's Stone is something that only exists in legends. For ordinary people, no! It should be said that for ordinary alchemists

To put it bluntly, it is simply out of reach

Things, even people like myself, have no clue how to obtain the Philosopher's Stone. Then think about it from another person's perspective. An ordinary alchemist like Bishop Leiter, or even a second- or third-rate person, is

How could a treasure like the Philosopher's Stone be made?

It's simply impossible!

So where did he get it?

The corners of Edward's mouth curled up. He had already figured out the answer. Since he couldn't get it, someone would let him get it.

"The Philosopher's Stone can resurrect the dead. In other words, maybe it's not that difficult to create a person, right?" Liu Mengchao looked at the light shining on Edward's face. Then he also smiled, "If you want

To create several people, I prefer the number seven, because seven always represents mystery and fun."

seven?

Edward nodded softly and stared at the darkness in front of him. Liu Mengchao had already made it very clear, even a little superficially. The Philosopher's Stone can resurrect the dead, and it can naturally create artificial humans. So what is the number of artificial humans?

How many are there? One, two, or more?

Liu Mengchao said that he likes the number seven, which proves that he knows that there are seven artificial humans. But where did Liu Mengchao know this?

Thinking of this, Edward brought his thoughts back to Liu Mengchao's conversation at the beginning.

He has seen...

Have you seen artificial humans? Then why did Liu Mengchao say such things to himself again? Is it just to tell him this information? But if he just told himself this information, there was no need to explain it to himself in such a secret way.

He could have...

etc!

Edward suddenly sat up straight, and his golden eyes almost popped out of his sockets. Those were two rays of light that were so breathtaking and powerful. It made people subconsciously want to dodge and escape.

"Is that the reason?"

Edward looked into Liu Mengchao's eyes and asked silently.

"Equivalent exchange is the most common principle in the world." Liu Mengchao said, with a slight smile. "In other words, I also agree with this explanation. Without equal efforts, there will be no equal returns.

.”

If there is no equivalent effort, there will be no equivalent reward?

Liu Mengchao seemed to be simply explaining his opinion, but for Edward, he knew that this was not the case at all. There must be a deep meaning behind every word.

Equivalent exchange is a common principle in this world. In other words...

Edward cast his gaze on Liu Mengchao, spinning around on this man like a whirlwind before regaining his composure.

"The exchange process is very painful." Edward pursed his lips tightly, as if the sound came from his throat, "Alchemists may not imagine the painful price they will pay."

This was Edward's test. He wanted to know whether what he said was what Liu Mengchao wanted to express.

"The price is high, maybe death."

Bingo!

Hearing Liu Mengchao's words, Edward nodded. He already understood the meaning of Liu Mengchao's words. The price was high, which proved that Liu Mengchao almost paid the price with his life for finding out such information. But he and Liu Mengchao had only just separated.

In other words, Liu Mengchao just met someone here who could obtain information about artificial humans.

Or to be more detailed...

In this town, there are artificial humans!

A fire seemed to suddenly rise in Edward's chest. He was extremely curious about this, and even wanted to search this town extremely anxiously. Find those artificial people now, and force out their secrets now!

It was like a fire that instantly burned in Edward's chest.

He couldn't wait to hear about these people.

"They are different from us."

Liu Mengchao observed Edward's expression and said calmly.

no the same?

Of course artificial humans should be different from humans. But...

"They seem to know the secret of this little stone."

Liu Mengchao looked at Edward's excited expression and nodded slowly. Knowing the secret of this small stone, in other words, they knew the secret of the Philosopher's Stone. They even...

"I see." Edward nodded lightly, and a smile appeared on his lips. According to Liu Mengchao, these artificial humans should also possess the Philosopher's Stone. Maybe they can even create these stones.

"Where can we meet them?"

This was Edward's question, and the look on his face was so impatient and anxious. He urgently wanted to know the answer, and even more urgently wanted to understand everything.

"central."

Liu Mengchao narrowed his eyes and carefully recalled what Rust had said to him. According to Rust, the place where they could be found was in the center. In other words, Rust wanted them there.

Go there.

"Go now!"

Edward stood up suddenly, and his heart began to burn uncontrollably. He couldn't wait to see these people, and then couldn't wait to know the news about these things. But Liu Mengchao seemed to understand Edward's expression.

I already knew he would say this.

Liu Mengchao did not answer, but nodded slightly.

"So...what do you need?"

After Edward listened to Liu Mengchao's words, he subconsciously asked Liu Mengchao. Liu Mengchao definitely didn't just want to tell him these things. He must have a basis for cooperation with him.

Edward's brows began to wrinkle as he thought about it, as if he was searching for a glowing gem among the settled sand.

"You want that stone too?"

Edward asked softly. This was his speculation. Liu Mengchao wanted to find the Philosopher's Stone with him. But...

wrong!

Edward suddenly realized that Liu Mengchao had already said when he met him for the first time that he had also completed the human body. In other words, Liu Mengchao also paid a price for seeing that door.

"Then you want to get back what you exchanged?"

This is Edward's final guess.

Retrieve those things? Listening to Edward's question, Liu Mengchao grinned slightly, and then smiled. He smiled faintly, and then shook his head slowly.
To be continued...
