Chapter 384

The young man's name was Envy, a homunculus created by the Dwarf in the Flask.

In pursuit of perfection and loyal subordinates, the Dwarf in the Flask divided its various emotions and used these emotions plus the Philosopher's Stone to create seven homunculi, which are:

Lust, appearing as a young and beautiful woman, with an actual age of over 200 years.

Gluttony, appearing as a round little fatty, over 100 years old.

Envy, appearing as a young man, over 100 years old.

Greed, appearing as an adult male, over 100 years old.

Sloth, appearing as a muscular man, over 100 years old.

Pride, appearing as a child, 343 years old.

Wrath, appearing as a normal human, his appearance changing with age, an acquired homunculus, 60 years old, the current Grand President, using the alias King Bradley.

Among the seven homunculi, the strongest is Wrath. He does not have the recovery ability of other homunculi; this is because he completely absorbed the Philosopher's Stone within his body, and his physical fitness increased significantly.

If it were a one-on-one fight, Su Xiao is not sure if he could defeat the opponent. The opponent is very strong in both swordsmanship and physical fitness, and that Ultimate Eye provides a high bonus to swordsmanship.

But Su Xiao really wants to fight him. Such a powerful enemy—fighting a battle would be very interesting and exciting.

As for the other homunculi, Su Xiao has the confidence to defeat them; it would just take some time.

Su Xiao ranked the homunculi in his heart: the strongest is Wrath, followed by Pride, and then Gluttony.

As for the other homunculi, if there are enough Philosopher's Stones, Su Xiao could blow them to death alive. Even without alchemy bombs, Su Xiao could slash them to pieces.

What if their recovery ability is strong? If you can't kill them once, kill them ten times; if ten times isn't enough, then a hundred times.

Envy parked the car on the side of the road, and the sounds of fighting came from the street in the distance.

"Your pocket watch."

Envy tossed a silver pocket watch to Su Xiao. After receiving the pocket watch, the prompt from Reincarnation Paradise appeared.

【Prompt: You have joined the Homunculus faction. Faction friendliness: Indifferent (0/200).】

After receiving the prompt, Su Xiao remained calm on the surface, but he had already thought of a general direction for the future.

It is somewhat difficult to infiltrate the enemy's interior. His identity has already helped the homunculi do many things; Envy revealing his face in front of him is the best example, but the faction friendliness is still Indifferent.

"This is a Philosopher's Stone."

Envy tossed over a Philosopher's Stone the size of a grain of rice.

The Philosopher's Stone was red all over, with a smooth texture and almost no weight.

"Too little."

Su Xiao checked the attributes of the Philosopher's Stone in his hand.

【Philosopher's Stone】

Type: Consumable

Effect: Can replace most known materials, remaining energy (30/30)

Rating: 70

Introduction: A rough processing of souls, low efficiency, possesses instability.

……

"Enough for this battle. After you win, you can bring the 'prisoner's' corpse to find me, and I will provide more Philosopher's Stones."

Envy drove away. Su Xiao watched the departing vehicle. That guy has a large Philosopher's Stone inside his body; snatching it would be a good idea.

Su Xiao doesn't care about the manufacturing method of the Philosopher's Stone; he won't manufacture it, and he doesn't reject using this thing.

Roaring sounds continued to come from not far away, and Su Xiao walked forward slowly.

Boom!

An ice wall rose up. Su Xiao dodged the ice wall sideways, and a figure stood on the ice wall.

"Looks like you are the target."

Su Xiao's voice caught the attention of the man on the ice wall. The man was tall, with a ponytail, and wearing a blue military uniform.

The man's name was Isaac McDougal, the Freezing Alchemist, who had participated in many wars.

Isaac stood on the ice wall, his pupils shrinking after seeing Su Xiao.

"Crimson, even a devil like you has been released. The military really will stop at nothing to deal with me."

Su Xiao held the Philosopher's Stone in his left hand, and light flickered in his right hand. After consuming 30 mana points, a special alchemy bomb appeared.

The special alchemy bomb that originally required 80 mana points now only required 30 points.

The alchemy bomb deformed in his hand, eventually turning into a spear.

Su Xiao threw the spear, and Isaac immediately jumped off the ice wall.

Boom!

An explosion resounded through the night sky, and flames surged up.

Not far away, the protagonist Edward Elric and his younger brother ran over quickly, witnessing this massive explosion.

"Who is this? An alchemist?"

Edward Elric and his younger brother stood side by side in the distance, not getting close because it was too dangerous.

The Flame Alchemist Luo Yi Mustang walked forward, his expression not looking very good.

"This guy was released? Impossible. What on earth is the military thinking? Did they get water in their brains?"

Luo Yi Mustang sighed.

"Fullmetal, don't continue to move forward. Just wait for the battle to end."

"Why..."

Boom!

Another explosion came, and a severed arm flew out, just happening to fall in front of Edward Elric.

Boom, boom, boom!

The city seemed to have turned into a powder keg. The streets were blown to pieces, and houses collapsed in large numbers, but civilians had already evacuated an hour ago.

The area ahead turned into an explosive inferno; no living person could enter.

Sss, water vapor spread out. Su Xiao stood within the water vapor, his vision obstructed, but he could still sense the enemy's position.

"You are also a State Alchemist. Haven't you noticed anything about what this country is doing?"

Isaac had already discovered the secret of this country, but he didn't know who the mastermind was. His goal was to kill the Grand President, King Bradley, which is the homunculus Wrath.

Killing the Grand President is actually a somewhat naive idea; the Grand President is not that easy to kill.

Su Xiao rushed out of the steam. Isaac was currently standing in a small alley, one arm severed, his whole body covered in blood, and he was already unable to use alchemy.

The prerequisite for using alchemy is to clap one's hands and set up an array diagram. Some alchemists, for convenience, tattoo the array diagram directly on their hands.

"At such a close distance, you can't use bombs anymore, you explosion maniac."

Isaac held a blood spike in his hand, which was formed by freezing blood.

To be precise, Isaac's alchemy didn't just freeze liquids; he could also make liquids boil.

"Yeah, can't use them anymore."

The remaining energy of the Philosopher's Stone was not much, and Su Xiao was not prepared to continue using it.

Dragon Flash appeared in his hand, and Isaac opposite him was stunned.

"Using a blade? You actually want to fight me in close combat, Crimson? Are you underestimating me too much?"

Isaac rushed forward holding the blood spike. His speed was not fast, but by the standards of ordinary people, Isaac was already a master of physical techniques.

A bright blade light flashed, blood sprayed out, and Isaac fell to the ground, his blood staining the ground beneath him.

"What... is this?"

Isaac breathed his last. In his impression, Su Xiao only knew how to transmute bombs, and his physical skills were not strong.

【You killed Isaac】

【Isaac was an ordinary plot character. Obtained 1.2% World Source. Currently obtained a total of 1.2% World Source.】

【Your talent 'Spirit Eater' activated, permanently increasing mana by 11 points. Current mana is 914 points.】

The increase in mana represents an increase in health points; the health bonus of the Spirit Shadow constitution is getting higher and higher.

Picking up Isaac's corpse, Isaac didn't drop a treasure chest. Su Xiao's luck today wasn't too good, but it was just a daily occurrence.

Having bad luck isn't scary; what's scary is being used to having bad luck.

Walking out of the alley, several people rushed toward him. Su Xiao looked closely and saw the plot protagonist and his younger brother, with Colonel Luo Yi Mustang beside them.

Su Xiao looked at Edward Elric. Edward's build was very short, about 165cm. Please don't misunderstand; this 165 has a lot of exaggeration, as it includes the ahoge on top of Edward Elric's head and the thickness of his shoe soles. If it were his net height, it would only be about 1.5 meters.

"Xiang Bubu, come out."

Xiang Ignoring Bubu Wang didn't know where he had hidden again.

In a cow pen in the distance, Xiang Ignoring Bubu Wang was mingling with the herd of cows with a calm expression, having already blended in without any sense of incongruity; he even occasionally lowered his head to eat grass.

A cow approached Xiang Ignoring Bubu Wang, and that fiery gaze made Xiang Ignoring Bubu Wang's dog body tense up.

Busy from noon until now, a system crash is simply a nightmare for a writer. Three updates have been completed. I'm going to eat dinner; I'm so hungry I could cry.
