Olivierâs fingers lightly tapped the table before she asked: âSo this kind of Philosopherâs Stone, how many sacrifices are needed to make one?â
Edward thought for a bit, then said: âProbably ten people or more.â
âSo many?â
âRight, this is just an estimate. I have studied Philosopherâs Stone thoroughly, and I can make a guess.â
Olivier asked again: âIf it was as big as an egg?â
âWhat?â
Edward looked at Olivier in fright.
âDonât be surprised. I saw one that big two days ago.â
Knowing the origin of the Philosopherâs Stone, Olivier started feeling the weight of this red stone in her hand.
âI canât imagine how many people died for one that big. Who has such a big Philosopherâs Stone?â
ââŠâ
Olivier didnât say it was Su Xiao, and she had a feeling that the Explosive Flame Alchemist did really come to form an alliance with her.
And if they had to fight Central Cityâs Force, then an Alchemist Master is needed, the same way this Fullmetal Alchemist is important.
âI understand. Why did you come here?â
Olivier asked.
âWe are here becauseâŠ.â
The Elric brother told Olivier their purpose in coming here, looking for a little girl to consult her about Alkahestry.
In front of the Dwarf In the Flask, Alchemy technique would become useless, they also talked about how their father, Hohenheim, or someone with his appearance is the chef behind the Homunculi, and the latter calls him father.
âSo that how it is.â
Olivier looked at the picture of the girl as she said.
âWe want to find her.â
As Olivier and the Elric brothers were talking, a soldier barged in: âMajor General, something bad is happening.â
âWhatâs the matter, donât be so flustered.â
âItâs⊠In the underground, a monster suddenly jumped out into the underlayer base.â
âMonster?â
âYes, a monster.â
Olivier frowned.
âWhatâs its position.â
âNear the weapon warehouse.â
As soon as the Soldier finished speaking, Olivier stood up hurriedly. The weapon warehouse is the basis of their strength. Losing the weapon would make them venerable.
The Elric brothers followed behind Olivier.
âYou two, stay here.â
Olivier ran directly after saying this, and she wasnât sure whether Edward and Alphonse were enemies or allies.
âWe can help. Donât forget that we are Alchemist Masters. If the fort is in trouble, we canât sit down and do nothing.â
Edward said with a smile.
âWhen we are there, follow orders, donât move on your own. If you do anything, youâre dead.â
âDonât worry, and we wonât.â
Olivier nodded.
The group quickly rushed to the mess underground.
âŠ
The weapon warehouse wasnât just for stocking weapons, but it also held the laboratory, which develops weapons and tests them.
As soon as they entered, they saw a tall figure with a body full of the muscle being besieged.
Bang! Bang! Bang!
The soldiers fire at him, but the bullets couldnât pierce his skin.
âIt hurts, so troublesome.â
The big man said slowly as if he was lazy.
âItâs so big in here.â
The robust man had one eye, and on the other side, he had a red stone and looking at him, anyone can tell that he wasnât a normal human.
The Elric brothers looked at him and saw a circle on his shoulder with a snake inside.
âThis is⊠A Homunculus.â
Edward recognized the giant and felt anxious. They came here to look for a way to deal with them, and since they are here, it means that their plan was discovered.
âWe are here to find a way to restore my brotherâs body.â
Edwardâs words were like whispers. He was threatened by the Homunculus and feared that if they made a wrong move, the life of his friend would be in danger.
âWho are you?â
This big man was Sloth.
Sloth was different from the other Homunculi. His IQ was low, and he was dull by nature. His dream is to sleep all the time.
âI must dig a hole⊠To cause trouble.â
Sloth moved to the side, and every time he took a step, the ground cracked by his weight.
âMake way!â
A female shout bellowed as Olivier was inside a tank with only half her body out.
âGet ready!â
The muzzle of the tank pointed at Sloth.
âOpen fire!â
Bang!
Olivier wasnât interested in Slothâs words since he dared come here. She wonât listen to his explanation.
A shell directly hit Sloth in the face and exploded.
The flame and smoke filled the place as the soldiers relaxed since the enemy was dealt with.
As the smoke dispersed, Sloth appeared with a slight injury on his cheek while the red stone in his eyes was shining with electricity.
âHow is this possible?!â
The morale of the Soldier suffered a heavy blow as they faced this monster.
Olivier was shocked for a second before she shouted: âStop watching and continue firing.â
After ten seconds, another shell was fired at Sloth.
Before the dark red shell hits Slothâs abdomen, he swatted it away like a fly.
âIt hurts, hurting is troublesome, I must work.â
Sloth ignored the shell as he was too lazy to fight or talk.
Boom! Boom!
Shell started flying at him one after the other, but Sloth wasnât affected.
Instead, he lifted a metal pipe and hit the tank, directly damaging it. The soldiers inside the tank were squashed, and the other tanks immediately backed away.
âDonât stop firing.â
Olivier was a little helpless. She was dealing with something so inhuman for the first time and didnât know what to do.
âOlivier, we are allies. How can you not inform me when there is trouble here.â
Olivier raised her head and saw Su Xiao sitting on the rail in a high place, with a smile on his face. He held a cigarette in his hand, and his dog followed behind him.
âCan you deal with this monster?â
Olivier narrowed her eyes as she knew that the Explosive Flame Alchemist wasnât simple.
âI already killed a few of them. Thatâs why they wanted to arrest me.â
