Almighty Alchemist

The boat docked on the shore and swayed gently in the turbulent water.

Simone sat at the bow of the ship, looking at the cold and hard man like a stone, her soft eyes were clear like water.

The work in hand was done, and she took a brisk step: "Here you are."

It was a jacket, and she had carefully knitted it for him.

The man did not answer, and Simone was not angry. She knew his temperament was like a piece of wood.

She put on her robes for him, like a gentle wife.

Then she sat next to him: "Well, let's continue your homework today. Come and tell me that the weather is fine today."

The man opened his mouth: "Today ... the weather ... it's fine."

His pronunciation is a bit laborious, but he can obviously feel a lot smoother than before.

"Yes, that's it." Simone clapped her hands excitedly.

It's been a month, and Simone has been tirelessly teaching the man to speak every day. She found out that this man was not a natural stammer, he just seemed to be unaccustomed to talking, unwilling to speak, or even knowing what to say. His vocabulary was so simple that his mind was blank, like a newborn baby.

Yes, it's a baby, but it has an adult physique but no adult thinking.

Simone felt she could change all that, and she could make this man speak like a real human, normal.

She had been doing it for a whole month.

She told men about the existence of the world, told him how to face life, told him many childhood stories, and encouraged him to talk.

The man no longer seemed to reject her. Instead, he was so interested in listening to it that he also began to receive Simone's education.

"You've done a great job," Simone said, grabbing the man's hand excitedly. "Let's do the next sentence: How are you? I miss you so much."

"Hello ...? ... I ..."

"Say!" Simone was a little excited.

The man thought about it and looked at Simone: "I miss you so much."

He spoke these four words very consistently.

Simone's face suddenly turned red.

"Well ... good ... continue."

"You ... why ... stammed?" The man was a little strange.

Simone blushed even more: "You learn from me ... I will ... learn from you."

The man shook his head seriously: "Learn me ... bad ... you ... hello."

Simone chuckled and smiled, "Well, yes, you're making progress fast."

The man looked at the smile on Simone's face, and slowly, a smile appeared on his face.

Simone looked at her, and suddenly yelled, "Ha, you will laugh, you will laugh! This is a great progress!"

Simony's shout attracted Grandpa, and the old man glanced at this side, then sighed and shook his head back to the cabin.

In the following days, everything started to go smoothly.

The man seemed to have fully accepted Simone, and he would do whatever she said.

He studied hard, progressed very fast, and spoke fluently, but his mind still seemed a little unclear, and he still couldn't remember who he was or what he was called.

He accepted Simone's name, Brother Stone.

It is more difficult for men to learn to live than to talk.

He doesn't do anything, always messes everything up. Simone taught him how to fish, but he threw the hook around his neck; he taught him how to cast a net, but only turned around and found that the man himself had been netted. She tried to rescue him from the net, but as soon as he tried hard, the fishing net was a broken piece of cloth.

Grandpa yelled angrily that he was no longer afraid of this man.

The man was slow and unresponsive.

"Don't worry, let's take your time, you can learn." Whenever this time, Simone patted the man's hand to him.

Over time, Simone gradually understood some of the characteristics of men.

She found that men seemed more accustomed to receiving orders than requests.

Many times when you ask him to sit on something, he will be indifferent, as if he didn't hear anything.

But if you give him an order directly, he will do it immediately, and often he does very well.

Like a soldier, obediently obey the command of the chief.

So Simony also began to try to command men. Whenever that time, she would have pain and annoyance. What kind of man is this?

After much thought, Simone finally made a decision. She said to the man, "You are not a machine, Brother Stone. You don't have to listen to anyone's orders, you are yourself!"

The man looked at her confusedly.

Simone's attitude was serious: "You have to learn to have your own ideas, that's important. You can't just do everything by taking orders."

"So ... is this an order?" The man asked.

Simone thought about it and shook her head: "No, this is a request."

"You mean ... I ... can do what I ... want to do?"

"Yes!" Simone answered excitedly.

That night, Simone was lying on her bed.

As she turned around, she suddenly noticed that a tall figure appeared beside her.

She was scared to scream, but found that it was a stone.

In the shadows, the man looked at her without saying a word.

Simone wrapped himself in a quilt and looked at him nervously, only to see him slowly lie down, lying beside Simone.

"Here ... it's warm," he said.

He slept beside Simone, leaning against her shoulders, and slept like a child.

Simone's eyes widened and she never slept.

From this day on, every day men sleep in Simone's bed and sleep with her.

As the days went on, Simone gradually got used to it.

Whenever a man is asleep next to her, she looks at the man's eyelashes and can't help thinking about what happened to the man.

Sido.

Wasteland, Land of Chaos, Land of Killing, Land of Freedom.

There are too many names spread because of this land, but if you want to ask the West people what kind of country they are, they are more willing to call their own mercenary country.

This is a nation of mercenaries, and almost every citizen is destined to be mercenaries from birth. They do nothing, hate conspiracies and devote themselves exclusively to the sale of force. Mercenaries from Cido, claiming to be the best and strongest soldiers in the northern continent. The yield rate of high-level samurai here is the highest in the entire Fengming continent. With a population of millions, the population base is less than one percent of the Reims Empire, but it has a high number of high-ranking warriors and peak warriors close to the Reims Empire, but it is poor in terms of magicians.

The Xiduo believe in force, worship it, and rely on it. When faced with contradictions, the people here are willing and only use force to solve the problem.

All lords are outstanding warriors themselves, and even the king of Cido must have a strong force in order to convince the people. A weak man who has no chicken power, even if he becomes a king today, he will be immediately overthrown by those aloof warriors.

Correspondingly, except for the samurai, magicians and alchemists are not popular here.

If the Lance Empire and Cidro are compared, the former is like a thriving American country. People maintain everything with morality and law, while at the same time they value civil rights. The latter is a backward and barbaric African society. It is the norm, and it is not uncommon for regimes to be subverted.

So when most Lances mentioned this place, Metropolis shook their heads to show disdain. To them, this place is backward, primitive, barbaric, ignorant, and barren with local resources, meaningless.

When Raschel set foot on this land for the first time, in the first four days, he saw three large-scale fighting in a row.

Blood flows on this land like river water, dyeing the earth red.

If Udik and his four-winged fangs were protecting him, perhaps they would have been snatched out on the first day of his arrival in this country.

Although the Cidos are brutal and fierce, they are definitely not stupid. In the face of the strong, they will also be afraid, and will shrink back, and never bubble when it is time to shrink. But in the face of the weak, they will become fierce wolves in an instant, snatching the merchants from them.

Usually people here have only two identities: robber and bodyguard. A few people have both identities.

"Becker is ahead." Udic said to Raschel.

The Revenge Soul team is now in this town.

I heard that they had complete control of the town. The entire town of Baike was under the control of the Vengeful Spirit, and Hailey was the mayor.

This sounds a little weird. The grass-roots officials here were not appointed by His Majesty the King, but were killed by himself. As long as you do not openly oppose His Majesty the King after becoming an official, everything else does not matter. As for the seal, the fist of the West people is the seal. As for taxes, there is no such thing as taxes in such poor places. The state's finances are not dependent on taxes, but on some of the major mineral veins controlled by the Xido regime. As for the guard ... If you don't have a soldier under your hand, what officer will you be?

This is Cido, a naked and powerful government.

Some people even say that Cido has no regime at all, only robbers, not for no reason.

They finally came to Baike town.

From a distance, the entire town has a high wall with soldiers of Vengeful Spirit standing on the wall. The fence is a tower every ten meters or so. Inside the tower are archers and magicians, and a magic ball that can release a magic shield.

In addition, under the fence, there is a cavalry team composed of Westback's special ironback beasts. They hold spears and wear rough armor to patrol the surroundings, and strictly inspect every passerby.

It looks like a fortress here, but if you look closely, you will find that the defense measures here are almost exactly the same as those of the original Spark prison.

It has to be said that it is quite ironic that the prisoners escaped from the Spark prison, and after they went to a foreign country, they rebuilt a new Spark prison with their own hands and trapped themselves inside. .

When Raschel came to the town, the soldiers guarding the gate sternly asked the names and checked their identities. When he heard that the man was coming to Hailey, he first looked at Raschel with skeptical eyes, and then Throwing it coldly: "Wait here."

It didn't take long for the door to open and Hailey's majestic body appeared.

Behind him, it was Chakra and Bailey.

"You're Raschel?" Hailey looked at Raschel, then looked back at Chaclay.

Chaclay nodded and said to Raschel: "When Xiuyi told me you would come here to help us, I almost thought he was crazy. But I didn't expect you to come."

Raschel shrugged: "The changes in the world will never exceed our expectations. No one knows in which direction history will suddenly make a sharp turn and make a great joke with us."

"Is it smooth on my way? Lord Raschel," Bailey said.

"Oh, it's a little troublesome, but the impact is not too big. Udic protects me very well. Oh, I think you know, he is a student of Xiuyi."

Chaclay and Bailey both bent down at Udik at the same time, and made a standard salute: "Hello, Your Excellency." Udik was younger, and accepted the homage with some fear.

Hailey was arrogant, showing nothing.

It is clear from this point that there is a difference between people. After all, Chaclay and Bailey were royal warriors, and they were very good at seeing what people said. Udic is a student of Xiuyi. No matter how he is, first, everyone needs to be kind to him. After all, the soul of vengeance is Xiu Yi. This is beyond doubt, including Hailey, who is only under his command and listens to his orders. However, Hailey did not give Udic any special treatment for this. Perhaps in his opinion, no one except Shuyi himself needed special treatment from him.

This phenomenon passed in Raschel's eyes, and the old fox just laughed a few times in his heart.

On the way to the mayor's house, Raschel got a rough idea of ​​the current situation of the spirit of vengeance.

The Vengeful Spirit came here six months ago. At that time it was ruled by a senior warrior named Utreid; Bluff.

After the Vengeful Souls came to Baker Town, their immense lineup quickly caught Bluff's attention.

Obviously, Bluff didn't want such a strong armed force in his town, so the spirit of vengeance soon began to fight with the defenders in Beck. In order to win the soul of vengeance, Bluff borrowed soldiers from neighboring towns and launched a life-and-death fight with the soul of vengeance.

The battle lasted for almost a month. The six kings showed great fighting power in the battle, killing the allied forces of Baikzhen and fleeing. Hailey himself was even promoted to the level of the samurai sky, Daniel the fierce wolf; Iron Manger also broke through to the seventh level, getting rid of the embarrassment of the only non-high-level samurai king.

"That being the case, why not launch a new attack immediately and take down several other towns together?" Raschel asked Hailey.

"Because we encountered a rather troublesome opponent." Hailey replied, "Just before you came, we were having a joint meeting to make a plan on how to solve the opponent. Now Tina they are still researching, maybe you have seen After planning, can give us some good suggestions. "

"I want to know who the opponent is first, and what's happening around here."

"In fact, that's where our headaches are." Hailey replied: "Because we don't know who our opponent is so far." ~!
