Chapter 46: Dolls and Substitutes

"puff!"

The sound of blood splashing suddenly sounded in this completely enclosed and dark environment. Liu Mengchao stood there without saying a word, watching with cold eyes the scarred man whose voice gradually disappeared from his body. Speaking of which, he could not blame the scarred man.

It was unwise, after all, in such a short period of time, he had directly heard the location of Liu Mengchao through his own ears, and launched an attack directly.

There was just one thing he didn't expect.

"I am not the only one in this closed environment."

Liu Mengchao curled his lips slightly, stepped over the scarred man's body lying on the ground, lowered his head and glanced at the broken body.

It is actually not accurate to say that it is a corpse. This is just a substitute created by Liu Mengchao by taking advantage of the psychological blind spots of scarred people. A large part of the human body is made of water, and to make a human body requires an extremely large variety of materials.

Elements, but if you just make a prop that has the feeling of the human body, or even just deceives the opponent in extreme time, it will not be a difficult thing for Liu Mengchao.

When a person is in the dark, no matter how calm he was before, he will still feel uneasy in his heart. This is determined by the genes developed by human beings over thousands of years. Human beings are actually animals that are afraid of darkness.

And if you want to escape this sense of uneasiness that follows you, the best way is to completely cut off the source. As for the way to cut off, it is to directly kill the enemies who can threaten your safety.

What Liu Mengchao did was to artificially create a body of his own according to the enemy's psychological blind spots, allowing the opponent to pour all attacks on it. He was invisible behind the enemy, launching the last and most deadly attack.

One blow.

"The heart has been penetrated. It is estimated that there is not much time left before death."

Liu Mengchao squinted his eyes and glanced coldly at the scarred man who seemed to be no longer breathing. He turned around, walked to the side of the stone wall, stretched out his hand and tapped the stone wall gently three times. This was Liu Mengchao's previous conversation with Edward.

The brothers agreed that as long as the danger was eliminated, they would directly knock on the stone wall three times.

"Buzz!"

There was just a soft sound, and the stone wall that looked like a mountain suddenly shook, and a small window appeared in front of Liu Mengchao.

"Squeak!"

The window made of stone was pushed open by Edward. He stood on tiptoe and looked at Liu Mengchao in the stone wall, with the corners of his mouth raised involuntarily.

"Solved?"

As soon as he saw Liu Mengchao's face, he couldn't wait to ask. After all, according to what Roy Mustang told them before, this scarred man had killed many national alchemists. Although some of these national alchemists

Some of them focus on the research of alchemy, but there are also a large number of people who hold military ranks in the army and are national alchemists with extremely strong combat effectiveness. However, they all died at the hands of this scarred man without exception.

Even Edward would find this a bit tricky. He even originally thought that Liu Mengchao would use this completely dark environment to deal with Scar Man, but...

"Solved."

Liu Mengchao nodded slowly and directly gave an answer that made Edward and Alphonse almost pop their eyes out. After all, Liu Mengchao didn't even have a look of exhaustion on his face. It was as if he had walked out of his own house.

, just as easy as buying a croissant across the street.

"this……"

Edward did not hide the look of confusion on his face, while using alchemy to open a stone door directly in front of Liu Mengchao.

"Squeak!"

Opening the door directly, Liu Mengchao returned to the sunlight.

"What a fierce battle!" Before Liu Mengchao could stand still, Alphonse said directly to Liu Mengchao excitedly, "My brother and I didn't hear the sound coming from inside, and we thought you were in the middle of a fight."

"Yeah... I only heard your conversation before." Edward nodded slowly on the other side, with a puzzled expression on his face. "Liu Mengchao, how on earth did you defeat Scar Man?"

Hearing Edward's question, Liu Mengchao just raised the corner of his mouth, but did not answer directly. Liu Mengchao's silence made the two brothers even more curious.

"I don't think you should use the fog, right? After all, in such an environment, no one can see any figure. Liu Mengchao's technique of distorting the line of sight through the refraction of light should not work.

yes."

Edward said with some uncertainty, his brows furrowed tightly.

"Brother is right. Although Liu Mengchao couldn't see things in that environment, the scarred man couldn't see things either. Originally, we two brothers thought that you wanted to use this method to delay time and directly wait for the army.

Reinforcements from the Ministry have arrived, but..."

But what? Is my speed too fast?

Liu Mengchao smiled and lowered his head, looking at a pool of bright red blood on his chest.

"Are you hurt?"

It wasn't until this moment that the Edward brothers suddenly came back from their joy, and they all stared at the blood stains on Liu Mengchao's chest in horror.

"This is not my blood." Liu Mengchao slowly shook his head, "This is the blood of the scarred man inside."

"How on earth is this done?"

After Edward learned that Liu Mengchao was not injured, he still could not hold back his inner doubts and subconsciously asked questions.

"It's easy to say." Liu Mengchao said as he stretched out his hand.

In a moment, a miraculous scene appeared in front of Brother Edward. The water vapor in the air suddenly condensed, as if it had suction, attracting the soil on the ground. In just a blink of an eye, a

The human form had already appeared in front of the two brothers.

"This..." Edward looked at the doll made by Liu Mengchao and carefully looked at Liu Mengchao's body, and said in disbelief, "This doll has exactly the same body shape as you. I know it! It's a stand-in!"

"Um."

Liu Mengchao nodded slowly, but his movements did not stop. Liu Mengchao raised his right hand, as if looking in a mirror, and the clay figure wrapped in water vapor also began to move.

"It's exactly the same as your actions. If you can't see your surroundings at all, you can definitely deceive anyone."

Edward and Alphonse both said in unison that their combat sense was, in some respects, exactly the same as their alchemy talent.

"That's the reason. In my opinion, if an alchemist's alchemy is completely understood by the enemy, he is not far away from death. And the scarred man doesn't know the weirdness of my alchemy, so naturally he has only

The only way out is to get seriously injured." Liu Mengchao said as he looked into the distance, "I really hope Roy Mustang and the others come here quickly, otherwise the important prisoner will die directly from excessive blood loss."
