As soon as he walked out of the gate of the Military Police Headquarters, Liu Mengchao saw the person standing in front of him. It might be too much to say that he is a long-lost friend, but it is quite appropriate to say that he is one of the few friends of Liu Mengchao in this world.

"Hey, Edward," Liu Mengchao said, turning his head to look at Alphonse standing behind Edward, and laughed directly, "And Alphonse, long time no see."

Standing at the door waiting for Liu Mengchao were the two Edward brothers. They both had cheerful smiles on their faces.

"Liu Mengchao..." Edward took the lead and walked to Liu Mengchao's side. The expression on his face was so happy and cheerful, "We encountered something incredible on the way home."

Something amazing?

Liu Mengchao glanced at the excited expression on Edward's face, and then looked at the excited expression on his brother Alphonse's face, and he instantly became clear in his heart.

Needless to say, Brother Edward must have found the clue to the Philosopher's Stone.

"Philosopher's Stone?"

Liu Mengchao raised his eyes and asked directly with a smile. When Edward heard Liu Mengchao's words, he smiled and nodded.

"It's true. When we were returning home with Major Armstrong, we met the alchemist who was originally involved in the study of the Philosopher's Stone. Although he is no longer in the Central Committee, he still left information about the Philosopher's Stone in the Central Committee.

Shi’s research notes, in other words, as long as we find his research notes, we can re-forge the Philosopher’s Stone.”

So fast?

Listening to Edward's words, Liu Mengchao couldn't help but curl up the corners of his mouth. This speed was really beyond his expectation. He originally thought that things like the Philosopher's Stone would only appear until the end of the whole story. He didn't expect the result.

Are they really like cabbages on a bad street? The two Edward brothers just went out and walked around, but they already discovered it?

Not bad, not bad.

Liu Mengchao nodded slowly. He was very satisfied with the situation in front of him. After all, in this way, the time before him in this world should be getting shorter and shorter, right? He should also be able to figure it out soon.

This is Chu Chuzhi’s goal.

"By the way, Liu Mengchao, how did your national alchemist examination go?" Edward watched Liu Mengchao walk out of the Military Police Headquarters, and couldn't help but think of the fact that he had participated in the national alchemist examination before.

"Have you ever made that triangular stool?" Edward said as he squatted down and pressed his hands gently on the ground. In an instant, an alchemy product exactly like the stool Liu Mengchao made just now appeared in Liu Mengchao's body.

before,.

"I don't know when this triangular stool was the product of alchemy." Edward looked at Liu Mengchao who nodded slowly and said with a smile, "But according to what we know, as long as an alchemist sits on it, the seat will not

Collapse. But if you don’t know alchemy or have no qualifications in alchemy, you will fall directly once you sit on this chair."

As Edward spoke, he could not hide the excitement on his face.

"Looking at Liu Mengchao, you must have passed both the written test and the interview, right?"

Liu Mengchao smiled and nodded.

"sharp!"

Edward admired sincerely.

"Not as good as you, the youngest alchemist in the country." Liu Mengchao said with a smile, then looked back at the military police headquarters behind him, "When I come here again, it will be time for the operational assessment, right?"

"Well, I'll let you practice the operation test on the spot. Maybe the president will come to watch it in person."

President?

Upon hearing Edward's words, Liu Mengchao couldn't help but frown. He seemed to have already met the man whom Edward called the Great President.

"Is he an old man with an eyepatch on his left eye?"

"Um!"

Edward nodded vigorously. Liu Mengchao laughed directly after seeing it. Speaking of which, he had already met him once.

The final test of the National Alchemist should start soon, right?

———————————————————————————————————

"The next national alchemist candidate, Liu Mengchao, please come in."

A familiar voice rang in Liu Mengchao's ears again. It had been three days since Liu Mengchao participated in the national alchemist interview. Just as the president had affirmed before, Liu Mengchao passed the interview directly and came to the final test.

the scene.

On-site assessment, this level is mainly to test an alchemist's proficiency in using alchemy. After all, national alchemists generally have to be put directly into the battlefield as humanoid weapons. As an alchemist, they are still in a state of war.

For countries, such measures are essential.

"We meet again, young man."

As soon as he entered the examination room, Liu Mengchao had already seen the old man standing in the front. No, although he looked about fifty years old, he still had black hair, and he looked lean and strong, which always made people uncomfortable.

Consciously increase your vigilance.

"The Great President."

Liu Mengchao said slowly and bowed slightly.

"Let's make a long story short." Looking at Liu Mengchao who had finished saluting, the president looked at Liu Mengchao with his single right eye and said with a smile, "I have received Roy Mustang's report a long time ago. As for your situation,

Unique alchemy, but I have been looking forward to it for a long time."

"As you wish."

Liu Mengchao smiled slightly and spread his hands directly in the air.

"This is my alchemy, the mirage."

Liu Mengchao said slowly. As her words fell, bursts of smoke filled the entire examination room. The smoke seemed to be like monsters with hands and feet, but it was filled with smoke in the blink of an eye.

In the actual examination room.

"You really can't see anything?"

At this moment, the president's voice came out from the fog.

"It seems that you can distort people's vision by distorting sunlight!"

Together with the President's voice of admiration, the whole examination room was filled with voices of admiration in an instant.

But it seemed that Liu Mengchao's alchemy was still not over. The fog that originally filled the entire examination room suddenly dissipated, revealing Liu Mengchao's figure standing in the center.

One...two...three...

"This is?" The President's one eye searched Liu Mengchao's body, and then suddenly stopped, "So many identical dolls... This is what Roy Mustang reported to me..."

"Through the Looking Glass. My second alchemy."
