"Thank you so much for the gifts you gave my daughter." As soon as he walked out of Maschutz's house, the old man who cared about his family had a happy expression on his face. In fact, Liu Mengchao just gave him the most common toys from street shops.

It’s not something extraordinary. But maybe in the eyes of parents, anything given to their children is worthy of saying thank you, right?

Liu Mengchao nodded noncommittally, waved towards Lieutenant Colonel Maschutz, and disappeared into the night.

Time flies and flies by.

The national alchemist exam was coming soon. When Liu Mengchao stood at the door of the Military Police Headquarters again, he could already see the unique atmosphere around him. There were candidates with dark circles everywhere, although they were outside

They are all superhuman alchemists, but when they get here, they seem to have become the most ordinary candidates.

Walking in, there was no search. Liu Mengchao was quite satisfied with this. When Liu Mengchao followed his exam number: No. 45 and sat down, he took another look at the examination room.

The entire examination room is not very big, but it is not small either. It is almost like the most common lecture hall in a university in another world.

And Liu Mengchao was sitting at the very back of the classroom.

When almost everyone came in, the test papers began to be distributed to everyone one by one. Liu Mengchaoxin turned over the test papers in front of him, and there were almost a dozen of them.

"Looks like it's going to be another hard battle!"

Liu Mengchao picked up the pen, leaned down, and started writing word by word.

——————————————————————————————————

Done!

After writing the last word, Liu Mengchao threw the pen away casually, and everything was fine. For Liu Mengchao, this exam was not as difficult as he imagined. Maybe it was because he had seen the Door of Truth.

So as time went by, Liu Mengchao's understanding of alchemy became clearer and clearer.

Maybe Liu Mengchao is still not as good as an alchemist who has studied for a lifetime, but if he just wants to pass a national alchemist examination, Liu Mengchao can be said to have no difficulty.

"Please keep it, this is your admission ticket."

As soon as Liu Mengchao came out of the door, he directly received a document regarding his identity certificate. It clearly stated Liu Mengchao's exam time and the number of exams he would take.

"The results of this written test will be available in three days. If you pass, we will notify the hotel where you are staying. At that time, bring another receipt, along with this one, to the Military Police Headquarters for an interview.

That’s it. I wish you all the best.”

The female clerk's face was full of smiles. She looked so amiable that people couldn't help but feel friendly. But Liu Mengchao had seen such a smile so many times that he even felt a little numb. When

When Liu Mengchao was the only person in his sight again, Liu Mengchao already knew that the next time would pass in front of him in a hurry.

Time passed very quickly, without even a trace of nostalgia. When Liu Mengchao opened his eyes again, he had already arrived at the interview for the National Alchemist Examination.

When Liu Mengchao stood at the door of the Military Police Headquarters again, he couldn't help but think of Brother Edward who didn't know where they were now. According to the agreement, he separated from them to test who the target of those artificial people was.

But now, Liu Mengchao has a rough understanding.

"So I'm not the target?"

Liu Mengchao twitched his lips and walked directly into the interview room for the National Alchemist.

The examination room for the National Alchemist interview is still in the Military Police Headquarters, and a conference room is directly borrowed for the purpose of assessment.

Looking from the outside, this room used for exams is ordinary, nothing remarkable. It was only when Liu Mengchao pressed his right hand on it that he could feel a faint alchemical energy coming from inside the door.

strength.

"Liu Mengchao. Please come in."

The door was pushed open, and it was still the clerk who met Liu Mengchao before. She now had long hair again and a beautiful smile on her face.

"OK."

Liu Mengchao nodded lightly and walked directly in. Once he entered the room, Liu Mengchao realized how dark the room was. There was no light anywhere, and there was only a triangular gold stool placed in front of Liu Mengchao.

.

sit down.

Liu Mengchao raised his head and stared at the person in front of him in confusion. Although the surrounding light was extremely dark, for Liu Mengchao, who had Assassin's Creed abilities, it was no different than a bright and spacious broad daylight.

"The stool has not fallen over. It seems that you do have the ability to do alchemy."

As soon as Liu Mengchao sat down, a critical voice came directly in front of him.

The stool has not fallen down yet? Liu Mengchao frowned slightly. In other words, if you are not an alchemist, will it collapse directly as long as you sit on this golden stool?

This is quite interesting.

Thinking of this, Liu Mengchao curled up his lips and eagerly awaited the interview that was about to begin.

"Liu Mengchao... an Easterner. The recommenders are Colonel Roy Mustang and Fullmetal Alchemist Edward Elric." The examiner sitting far away picked up the paper filled with Liu Mengchao's information and read it carefully.

stand up.

"Tell me first why you want to become a state alchemist?"

reason?

Liu Mengchao didn't even think about it and just grinned.

"There's nothing funny about this, right?" The examiner's voice sounded a little sullen. He seemed to have never seen someone take the exam with a smile on their face during the National Alchemist interview.

"Isn't the reason obvious?" Liu Mengchao said, directly raising his head and piercing his eyes like sharp knives, "For the privilege."

privilege?

"Your answer is really honest!" The examiner was stunned for a moment. He had heard countless different answers. Some people did it to protect the country, and some people wanted to pursue the truth of alchemy. But no one had ever told him

But, is becoming a state alchemist just for the privilege?

"If it's just for the privilege, if someone offers you better terms, wouldn't you rebel?"

Liu Mengchao remained silent and refused to answer this question. After all, in Liu Mengchao's opinion, this question was too retarded.

"Why do you refuse to answer!"

"If there are other countries that can give me better conditions, then it is not me, but you who should reflect." Liu Mengchao said mercilessly, "After all, I am not the one who controls this country and uses alchemists.

But you!"

If this country cannot even guarantee the loyalty of the national alchemists who serve as human weapons, the problem definitely does not lie with the alchemists, but with those in power.

This was the most obvious thought in Liu Mengchao's mind. He was not even willing to hide anything. It seemed that in just one short meeting, Liu Mengchao had completely seen through what these people were thinking.

"Hahaha! That's right! The problem should be with our group of people!"

Hearing Liu Mengchao's words, the person sitting in the center burst out laughing. Although Liu Mengchao could not clearly see his appearance through the eagle eyes, Liu Mengchao could still roughly find that this man had an eyepatch on one eye.

Blind?

Liu Mengchao's lips curled up and he laughed.

"You passed!"

As expected by Liu Mengchao, the one sitting in the middle seemed to have a high status and let him pass directly.

"President, please think carefully, this person looks like a traitor!"

Before Liu Mengchao got up, the examiners in the distance seemed to have already started arguing.

"No, I think this man is very sincere. Not ordinary sincerity. He directly said what he was thinking without any deception. I think this is more worthy of my trust than his lofty ideals. Moreover, Liu Mengchao said it right

Isn’t it right? If the national alchemist, who is the country’s fighting force, cannot get treatment that can meet his own needs, there is nothing strange about rebelling, right? After all, we are the ones who have always used them as weapons!”

This president is very sensible, right?

The corners of Liu Mengchao's lips curled up and he laughed directly.

But having said that, I feel a little strange about this Prime Minister. It seems like I have seen him before somewhere.

Liu Mengchao squinted his eyes and searched for relevant memories in his mind, but found that in the end he found nothing.

"Liu Mengchao, you have passed the national alchemist interview. In three days, I will personally go to the actual operation assessment site. I hope you will perform well then."

Liu Mengchao nodded slowly, indicating that he understood. Liu Mengchao stood up, glanced contemptuously at the people in front of him, and then sneered.

"Now I know why the president can be the president."

After saying that, Liu Mengchao walked out of the examination room without looking back, leaving behind the examiners who stayed in the examination room and looked at each other.

"What on earth did he mean?" asked a person in confusion. He was the one who directly scolded Liu Mengchao at that time.

"Is it the capacity? As the direct leader of the country's alchemists, only the president has such capacity to accommodate a rebellious alchemist like Liu Mengchao just now!"

As soon as he finished speaking, the originally noisy alchemist interview and assessment site erupted into deafening cheers. The candidates outside were shocked, but Liu Mengchao, the protagonist, had long since disappeared. (Unfinished)
