Chapter 15 The World of Fullmetal Alchemist
"This is good. There is no one around at night. At least it is more convenient to find out the information." Although it was night, the moon could still provide some lighting. Lyon looked around and could barely see the outline of a building in the distance... To be honest, it was a bit scary. If he was in his hometown, he would doubt whether there were a bunch of zombies inside, waiting for the curious reporter to come to feed him.
"...Be careful, we still have no proof of identity." Clausa reminded.
"Safe and be at ease~~ We are not going to enforce the law at home, so how can we check the ID card for dialogue between civilians?" Clausa was responsible for killing her when she was a soldier. Lyon's work was much richer, and she had a say in this time.
"In terms of negotiation, if you see it as the 'protagonist face' at first glance, then leave it to me to introduce your identity directly and frankly. If you see it as the 'passing face' at first glance, then leave it to you, an American agent with the "Eight-Faceful" stunts." Of course, Leeds is the only one who is qualified to say such words.
"It's the former-American agent, the future fruit vendor." Lyon smiled.
"You can just play the game first. When I was training in the United States, I heard your colleagues tell you about cheating in the written test. Your academic level needs to be studied," Leeds shrugged, "It's not my fault if I can't learn anyway."
"...Well, this is a rumor!" Lyon didn't have the confidence in his heart...
Leeds ignored his concealment and turned toward everyone: "Anyway, for the first time, I came to report, check which ones were limited and which ones were allowed?"
》》》》》》》》》》
Before moving to "The Legend of Zelda", Leeds once mentioned that he wanted to take Lyon to a world related to "Alchemy"... Is it considered a concern for his teammates' welfare? Anyway, it's not bad. He always plays games in any world he goes to~
Why "Alchemy"?
Of course it's for gold~~The Golden Apple under the mc system has the magical function of turning biochemical virus infected people back to normal people. As long as Lyon learns the technology of refining gold from cheap materials, the golden apples synthesized day and night can save many victims of biochemical virus-related events... Unless other biochemical virus researchers are like the Umbrella remnants led by "Kara", they are determined to turn the whole world into a walking dead field with flesh, and they will make them successful!
This is exactly why Lyon laughed at himself as a "fruit vendor". However, now he doesn't even know what "Alchemy" is, so he should just talk back to this world first.
Unlike the many worlds that Leeds passed by and the men who supported their families secretly ran to the "The Legend of Zelda World" when they were looking for weapons, this time it was a serious group adventure game, so it followed the previously decided process of "Leeds Praying to Lock the World" Zhang Chunhua used the store system to inquire about intelligence and prepare initial funds. Finally, the group started to eat and sleep well. Everyone knew the characteristics of this world - there were both machinery similar to trains and the alchemy that could create miracles by drawing a complex pattern on the ground.
After arriving in this world, according to the new settings of "Game System ver2.0" after the second online connection, everyone's gossip mirror and Bibi Boy added the functional section of "Alchemy System". In theory, everyone can now perform the lowest level of refining.
If you beat monsters too much, the Alchemy System can still turn stones into gold after upgrading, but this power belonging to the game system will definitely be blocked by taking it to "Biochemical World"... If Lyon wants to achieve his goal, he can only rely on his own brain to learn "Alchemy" in real detail, turning this knowledge full of power into his own inherent ability.
——This is the main task for everyone in this world?
So the question is, where is the beginning of this mission...
"Lord Leeds, over there..." Wang Yuanji was the first to notice the fire on the hill behind everyone.
"Well? I thought the residents in the house over there would be the first person we contacted, but I didn't expect that this one would be..." It sounded like no matter where, they were all strangers, but there were already three 'first persons' that Leeds met when they first arrived in the world, which was self-evident.
Without further ado, everyone walked straight to the source of the fire... Not long after, they saw the true body of the fire - the burning house.
In front of the house, there was a blond child wearing a red robe. The torch in his hand proved that he was the arsonist, and the child was surrounded by an iron armored puppet... Oh, this iron armored puppet "sees" with Leeds's own high perception. In the eyes of Zhang Jing, Wang Yuanji and others, it should be just a tall knight in iron armor.
Obviously, this kid is the guide to this game.
Then, let's say hello first~
"——The kids over there, they do something like killing and setting fire at a young age. Don't try to escape, just accept the legal sanctions!"
——————————————————————————————————
The so-called "Alchemy" is a technique that understands material structure, conducts division and re-construction. If it goes well, it is possible to turn stones into gold. However, this is not a omnipotent technology, and it is also limited by the laws of the world, which is called "Equivalent Exchange".
A layman may think that this is just "nothing can be made out of nothing, and a mass object can only produce the same mass object", but the alchemist believes that this law should be interpreted as "A man can get nothing without making any sacrifices, and he must pay the same price to get anything."
Because of this rule, there is a taboo born from "no one can bear the cost" in the process of teaching alchemy - "The Refining of the Human Body".
Four years ago, 11-year-old Edward Ellik and 10-year-old Alvance Ellik (hereinafter referred to as Al) violated this taboo in order to revive his mother who died of illness. As a result, not only did not let his mother live again, but the two brothers also paid a heavy price. Edward lost his left leg and Al lost all his body. In order to keep Al in the world, Edward then abandoned his right arm and fixed his younger brother's soul on a set of armor.
The disaster that caused itself did not knock down the two brothers. Of course, they had given up their desire to resurrect their mothers. However, even if this time it was to retrieve their bodies, they could not change the fact that they were exploring the forbidden human body to be refined. If they failed, they might really disappear from this world this time... No, maybe their retribution would be more than that...
However, they couldn't look back.
In order not to turn back cowardly, they burned "Home" and embarked on a journey, intending to become government lackeys, obtain more research materials as the National Alchemist, hoping to obtain the possibility of human body refining.
They have already realized that they have gone from ‘one hell’ to ‘the other hell’.
