Almighty Alchemist

Chapter 71 Real Illusion (Part 1)

The work of servants was hard work, and Huey found it boring.

He became more and more disgusted with the current situation, because he always had an inexplicable feeling, as if there was an inexplicable commotion deep in his heart tormenting him.

Fink came to see him today.

"I've done my work. Anyway, I have nothing to do. I'll come to see you."

"It sounds like you have an easy job."

"My luck is not bad. Hey, did you hear that? Brent's unlucky bastard was assigned to Area 9. There was a terrifying saber-toothed beast there. The head of the saber-toothed beast alone was as big as a table, and its teeth were long and sharp. Wow, that thing is really scary."

He gestured to the head of the saber-toothed beast with his hands, his face full of exaggerated expressions.

Xiu Yi watched Fink's movements, and the scenes were so familiar, but Xiu Yi just couldn't remember them.

It's as if it has been repeated countless times.

He said almost instinctively: "Yes, I heard that, and I also heard that Brendt cried on the spot."

"That's right. His job is to..."

Xiuyi followed Fink's words and said, "... I grind some powder from the teeth of that saber-toothed beast every day. I heard that it has a very magical effect. But the saber-toothed beast probably doesn't like other people treating its teeth like this."

He said the following words at the same time as Fink.

Fink showed an unbelievable look of surprise: "How do you know what I'm going to say?"

"I don't know." Xiu Yi shook her head with a blank face.

He didn't understand why he seemed to know what was going to happen in the future, but he couldn't think of it if he was really asked to think about it.

Huey was sick of this feeling.

He doesn't like it.

There should always be an answer to everything, but he doesn't know where the answer is.

Maybe I should try another way, like... change something?

he thinks.

Early the next morning.

Fink is at it again.

"Hui, look how beautiful this flower is." Fink pointed to a blooming flower and said.

Huey had an instinctive impulse, he wanted to rush over to push Fink away, but at that moment, he suddenly hesitated.

Why, why does everything that happens seem to be planned in advance?

Like an unreal dream.

No, it shouldn't be like this, maybe something should be changed?

Huey stopped moving.

The bloody orchid moved, and it bit Fink's finger hard.

Fink covered his hands and cried out in pain on the ground.

Xiu Yi looked at all this coldly.

Andrew ran over quickly, and when he saw Fink's injured finger, he growled angrily: "Gler, what the hell is going on?"

"He was bitten by the bloody orchid." Xiu Yi replied calmly.

"Why didn't you stop him from getting close to that thing? He didn't know, but you should know what kind of bloody orchid exists."

"I'm sorry, my lord." Huey lowered his head.

Fink struggled to get up: "Please don't blame Huey, Lord Andrew, it's all my fault. I shouldn't be close to things I'm not familiar with. But I assure you, I will work hard to do a good job. My injury will not have any impact on my work."

"So can you still work?"

"It's just a missing finger, nothing serious, my lord," Fink replied with a smile.

Andrew looked at the injury on Fink's hand: "Your injury is not suitable for your original work. It just so happens that the library needs a servant helper. You can help with some things there temporarily."

"Good sir."

library? Huey's heart trembled.

Andrew took a deep look at Xiu Yi: "You really let me down, Xiu Yiglier."

You really let me down... Xiuyi's heart throbbed again.

what is going on?

In the end what happened?

A voice in the head shouted, "You're crazy! You're crazy! You made the dumbest choice!"

Stupid choice? Xiu Yi didn't understand, but the uneasiness in his heart tormented him crazily.

He asked the voice, "Why? Why was that a stupid choice?"

"Every choice has an answer; every choice has an ending. You can't escape any choice!"

"I just want to know if I'm dreaming. If you know what you're going to say and do in the next moment and you can't change it, you're going to be crazy. I just want to make some changes."

"But your change is on the road to ruin."

"What kind of destruction?" Xiuyi asked the voice in his head loudly: "What happened? I don't understand. I just don't like this feeling of being manipulated. It's like someone is deciding my future!"

"The future?" The voice in my head made a strong mockery: "Do you think that is your future? Maybe that is not the future, but a preordained destiny."

"Is there a preordained destiny in this world?"

"If it ever happened, it did."

"Ever?" Xiu Yi shook his head, he didn't understand.

"You will be sent there, and you will die." The voice in your head sighed: "Look, it's just a small change in detail, and all the results are no longer the same. The path of fate has diverged, and you have chosen the wrong one. All this...is simply because you lack a necessary condition. When this condition no longer exists, your intelligence becomes deadly stupid."

"What condition? I don't understand."

"That's what you need to find. You have to know who you are, where you are, what you're doing. You have to make up who you are, and if you don't, the dream is no longer a dream, it's real."

"What are you talking about? I can't understand!" Xiu Yi shouted.

The voice disappeared.

Huey sat on the ground blankly.

He couldn't figure out what was going on.

———————————————

Xu stood at the end of the abyss, surrounded by boundless flames burning.

He could see the giant dragons flying across the sky, they were fighting fiercely in the sky.

The soldiers of the death army rushed to everything like a sea tide, making a deafening roar.

An abyssal demon came to his side with a swaying fat body: "Great Your Excellency Xu, our army is retreating steadily, and Bathgate's soldiers have already pointed at the lava swamp. He himself even sent you an invitation to a duel, and you need to respond immediately."

response? How to deal with it?

Xu shook his head in distress, and rested his chin with his front paws.

That great and terrible demon Bathgate, he is the embodiment of invincibility.

Challenge Bathgate, it's impossible.

Xu began to sigh and began to miss the old days.

At that time, he followed his father to walk in the human world, how happy he was.

Eating and drinking every day, and occasionally helping my father fight, I never have to worry about the future.

Everything was naturally arranged for him by his father, no matter how difficult it was, he would always help him through it.

But now, his father is gone, and everything has to be faced by himself.

Bathgate challenge? God, even as a noble and great dragon family, he can't be Bathgate's opponent.

That guy was the guy who killed his mother with his own hands!

Mother……

Poor mother, killed by this bastard just like that.

Even his father died at his hands.

They're not even a single enemy of this demon.

The huge legion is now beaten by this demon to less than one-tenth of its strength, and it is still trapped in this lava swamp with no way out.

what can he do

What should he do?

Xu was so painful that he wanted to howl to the sky.

The army of death in the distance is charging towards the lava swamp wave after wave. The army that my father worked so hard to build is being eaten away by the army of death. Maybe it won't be long before they are all finished.

And farther away, that tall mountain-like figure was looking up to the sky and roaring triumphantly.

Where he stood, the sky was covered by black clouds, and even the raging fire of the abyss could not stop the dark aura of this terrifying demon king.

That represents the huge aura of chaos, destruction and death.

"Maybe I should choose to surrender, but my father must not like that." Xu muttered.

—————————————

The days are passing by.

Huey's life is simple and regular.

But for some reason, he always felt as if he had lost something. There were some important things to do, but he couldn't do them.

Huey was working in area 13 today, and Fink came.

"Hey, Grale."

"Fink." Huey replied.

He noticed that the bandage on Fink's finger had been removed and a new finger had grown.

"Is your hand okay?" Huey asked.

Fink shrugged: "Magic is amazing. Lord Andrew gave me a potion that can regenerate the lost part."

"Any part will do?"

Fink thought for a while: "...Maybe if the head falls off, it won't grow back."

"...Then Lord Andrew thinks highly of you. This potion should be very expensive."

"Maybe, I don't know." Fink shook his head: "Hui, I have a question for you."

"What?"

"On the hand where Xue Xuelan bit off my finger, you just didn't have time to stop it, right? You didn't watch it happen on purpose, did you?"

Xiu Yi hesitated for a moment, then he nodded: "Of course, we are friends, how could I harm you?"

"Yeah, I thought so too." Fink laughed.

He looked at Xiuyi arranging a potted flower, and asked, "What kind of flower is that, it looks so scary."

"Ghost-faced flower, the non-poisonous kind." Xiuyi replied: "It was sent by Lord Lancelot. It is a newly discovered species, but it seems to be just a ghost-faced flower that has lost its due ability."

"Lost the ability to do it?"

"Yes, they lost their proper abilities, so the ghost-faced flowers are no longer scary, and even no longer have the significance of research." Xiuyi pulled out the bunch of ghost-faced flowers from the flower pot and threw them into the corner.

"Just like human beings, if you want to be accepted and recognized by others, you must have your own value, which belongs only to you. If you don't have this value, there will be no meaning of existence." Xiuyi said indifferently.

Fink stared blankly at Xiu Yi: "What are you talking about? I don't understand."

He didn't know why he said those words, but at that moment, Xiu Yi stared at the ghost face flower thrown into the corner by him, and felt a pain in his heart.

What did he seem to do wrong?

But he doesn't know.

Everything he did was in line with his perception of the world, so why...

Why did it go wrong?

ability? Lost due ability? Did I also lose some ability?

Xiu Yi was shocked.

A strange thought arose in my mind: if I have lost a certain ability, whether I no longer have the meaning of existence, maybe like this flower, I should be pulled out of the environment where I grew up, and then...discarded.

In my mind, a voice roared crazily: "My God, look what you have done! You pulled it out, you destroyed it, you killed it! You personally destroyed the last and most important foundation of your existence!"

Xiu Yi stared blankly at the ghost face flower on the ground.

After losing the nourishment of the soil, it is rapidly withering and losing the luster of life.

Xiu Yi looked at all this indifferently, without saying a word.

three days later.

Sisser came and brought a message: "Gler, Lord Andrew means that you will be sent away from Purgatory Island because he is very dissatisfied with your work performance."

———————

Huey looked around blankly.

It was a canyon he had never seen before.

Lord Andrew brought them here.

Why did you bring them to this place when you clearly said you were going to send them off the island?

Why do I feel so familiar with this place even though I have never been here before?

There were several pillars standing not far away, and Xiuyi seemed to see someone tied to them and wailed in pain.

God, how long will this damn hallucination be tormenting him?

An apprentice came over and said to Xiu Yi and the others: "You wait here, Mr. Pierre will come over after a while, and he will arrange new jobs for you."

Then he turned and left.

The servants talked a lot, completely unaware of what was about to happen.

"Hey, Huey." A voice lingered in Huey's ear.

Huey turned and looked back.

It's funk.

Xiu Yi almost cried out, how could he come here?

Fink was hiding in a shadow between the mountain walls. He put his finger to his mouth, signaling Xiu Yi to silence, and then hooked his finger to Xiu Yi.

Huey ran over: "Hey, Fink, why are you here?"

"Shh, Huey, come with me." Fink grabbed Huey's hand and ran out of the valley.

"Fink, what are you doing?" Huey didn't understand: "Where do you want to take me? If you do this, you will be punished by Lord Andrew."

"Honestly I don't know what I'm doing. There's a voice in my head these days that's yelling that I have to take you away."

Huey stopped in her tracks and stared blankly at Fink.

A chill rose from the bottom of his heart: "What did you say?"

Fink stopped suddenly.

He turned back to look at Xiu Yi, with a strange light in his eyes: "Don't you understand? Xiu Igles, I'm not Funk, I'm you, the real one, another you! That Xiu Yigla you need to complete. Of course, I have another name, Gong Hao."

boom!

Xiu Yi's mind seemed to be bombarded by something, and countless strange pictures flooded into his mind at that moment.
