Almighty Alchemist

Chapter 11 Anach Undercurrent (two changes completed)

The public carriage traveled south along the avenue, and after passing through the Labrador Canyon, it entered a well-repaired avenue. The road began to become flat, and the carriage suddenly accelerated.

"In another hour, we will arrive at Anakh." The coachman's voice cheered up the boring spirit of the passengers in the carriage after a long journey.

Xiu Yi put down the "Historical Records of the Sierra Empire" in his hand and began to look at the distant scenery.

After making the puppet doll, Xiu Yi didn't stay any longer, and took Lancelot and Lasseter to Anakh. This is the twentieth book he read during the journey. The long fifteen-day journey has already allowed him to understand the history and geographical environment of the entire Southern Continent.

"It seems that you are still the same as before. You love to read books, and you are desperately trying to learn all the knowledge you desire...not just alchemy." Lancelot said to Xiuyi with a smile.

During this time, Lancelot was also learning the acupoint secret technique that Xiuyi taught him.

This kind of acupoint secret technique opened his eyes. Although he is not sure that he can become a sanctuary with this kind of secret technique, the doubling of his strength is inevitable. To a certain extent, as long as one truly discovers the full potential of the acupoints, then even the sanctuary is not his opponent without using the domain.

Lancelot was very grateful for the generous gift Xiuyi gave him.

"Except for those praiseworthy words, it's actually not that different from the history of the Northern Continent. Split, unify, split again, and reunify, history always repeats itself, and society gradually progresses amidst these contradictions." Xiu Yi replied without raising his head.

"Including the Church of the Scourge?"

"It also includes the Church of the Scourge."

It is meaningless to explain what the Scourge Church has done here and what it has. They may be different from the Church of the Holy Spirit in some specific details, for example, there is no Pope, only the Elder, but in essence, they are all the same magic stick. It's just that one deceives the congregation with the beauty of the future, and the other deters the congregation with the horror of the future.

Of course, considering that the abyss does exist and the Western Continent was destroyed as a result, the existence of the Scourge Church may indeed be meaningful, but that is only the meaning of the founder. As it has been passed down for hundreds of years, the ideas of successors always change.

For example, they are now more concerned about the struggle for power, how to develop their power to the northern continent, and how to become the first church in the true sense of the mainland.

For that matter, maybe they'll be hoping for the real disaster, rather than preventing it.

Long before coming here, Xiu Yi already knew that there were multiple opinions within the Scourge Church, but now she just confirmed this point.

"So, if possible, I'd rather study this." Xiu said, shaking a few pieces of paper in his hand.

That was the fragment of Electra's notebook.

Xiuyi already knew the origin of these torn pages.

About fifty years ago, a team of monsters accidentally discovered an area guarded by a powerful monster during a hunt for monsters. After killing the beast, they discovered that it was actually a secret laboratory of Electra.

In this laboratory, in addition to Electra's habitual notes, some special inventions were also left behind.

This could have been the basis of a lifetime of glory for the discoverer, but alas, since the discoverer was not alone, major problems arose. The former friendship failed to withstand the test of huge interests, and the adventurers of the Warcraft team launched a fratricide. They failed to die under the claws of the powerful and terrifying monsters, but eventually died under their own knives. In the end, only four of the twelve-member Warcraft team escaped alive. They each got part of the inheritance in the laboratory, and the most valuable notes were torn into several copies during the battle.

The share in Xiu Yi's hand was brought out by the original adventurer.

Judging from the few words recorded on it, this notebook is exactly what Xiuyi has been longing for—it records the production and use methods of the troll god.

"You really wish to bring back the Troll God?" Lancelot asked him.

"I don't know, and I'm not interested." Xiu Yi replied in the standard tone of alchemists.

In essence, alchemists are no different from many theoretical scientists. They are dedicated to exploring the mysteries of the universe, why things come into being and exist, and how they can be changed. They care about what they can do, not the consequences of what they do.

Like Einstein and nuclear weapons, he only cares about whether it can be created, not about the consequences of creation - if he really cared about this, he would not support the invention of such a thing.

The carriage finally arrived at Anakh after a simple conversation.

From a distance, this tall and majestic city is like a pearl on the desert, shining brightly.

The height and majesty of Anach is not reflected in its walls, in fact Anach has no walls at all.

The Sierra Empire is already an invincible existence in the Southern Continent, and its capital does not need to use city walls to ensure its own safety. What is really shocking is the continuous high-rise buildings of Anakh, where ancient castles rise from the sky and spread all over the city.

Countless ancient castles stand upright like sharp swords, and the flags of various families are flying, showing off the majesty of the prosperous empire.

If he hadn't known the description of the Anach scene in the book, Xiuyi would have thought that he had come to an ancient battlefield.

The Sierra people advocate bravery and love retro. For them, only the castle is the eternal and reliable home. Anach is an aristocratic city formed by the accumulation of countless family castles.

And in the very center of the city, two long pillars stand upright against the sky, which are the headquarters of the Royal Palace and the Scourge Church.

Compared to the headquarters of the Church of the Holy Spirit, which is located deep in the mountains, the headquarters of the Church of the Scourge is located directly in the capital, next to the imperial palace.

———————————

The carriage slowly drove into Anakh.

Compared with Winnington, Anakh has a longer history. It may not be as bustling and bustling as Winnington, but it has its own glorious atmosphere. The cobblestone roads paved with flower bars are spread all over the city, and the carriages travel on them, as smooth as walking on a national road in the 21st century.

The buildings in Anakh are mainly made of stone. Various stones such as cyanite, white flower stone, and granite form the main body of the city, so that the color of the whole city looks simple, solemn, and has a heavy momentum of a national capital.

The public carriage stopped at the post station, jumped out of the carriage, and Xiuyi tidied up her clothes. Blazing birds fluttered in the sky and shrank their bodies and landed on his shoulders. Xiuyi took out some food and stuffed them into their mouths.

Lasseter looked at the pair of blazing birds with envious eyes. The pair of fiery red birds looked very cute with bright feathers after shrinking.

"Find a place to eat something first, and then we'll see Isado." Huey said.

Neither Lancelot nor Lasseter had a problem with this. The travel food was really terrible.

According to passers-by, they found a luxurious restaurant easily. As soon as Lasseter stepped in, he yelled, "Hey, bring some wine and food."

"Excuse me, what do you want to order, sir?" The waiter hurried over.

"Any meat?" Lasseter asked.

"Of course, we want good veal here, and there's also..."

"I want veal. Give me two big plates. I'm so hungry that I can eat half a cow. And some wine, the strongest kind."

"I'll do it for you." The waiter hurriedly left, and someone else opened the seats for Xiu Yi and the others.

There weren't too many people in the restaurant, but most of them were well-dressed gentlemen eating.

When Xiu Yi and the others walked in, many people looked at them with surprised eyes.

When Lasseter ordered with his characteristic loud voice, many people frowned.

Hughie even heard someone say, "A bunch of rude savages."

The retro style brought great attention to etiquette and upbringing. If Baron Harden was here, he would be able to get along like a duck in water.

For this contempt, Xiu Yizhi smiled lightly.

The veal was quickly served, followed by two bottles of red flame wine, a specialty of the Southern Continent. The wine was said to be so strong that it could even be used as fuel.

Both Huey and Lancelot didn't like strong alcohol, but Lasseter liked it very much, and he drank it non-stop.

His rude way of drinking made many aristocrats frown. In their opinion, such a rude guy should be thrown out of the restaurant, and he is not allowed to step here.

On a table not far away, sat a young girl, and opposite her was a nobleman.

The nobleman sneered and said, "I really can't imagine how I would sit in a restaurant with this kind of person for dinner. Maybe when I go back, I should tell my father to ask His Majesty the emperor to distinguish the nouveau riche from the noble. We can't let those guys who come out of the gutter with the smell of copper dirty our nobility."

Human beings can always learn many things without a teacher at a very young age, and one of the most important things is to show off their family background.

Having a good father is like having a toy in your children's hands that is so good that it's worth talking about, maybe even talking about for a lifetime. For the vast majority of playboys, a powerful father is the most worth talking about.

The young girl was probably a friend of the nobleman, and her haughty expression was more like a phoenix: "You are right, my father has long suggested that a new household registration system should be established. Those who are uneducated should be expelled from the capital to maintain the noble image of the capital."

Lasseter looked at the couple and snorted, "A pair of sons of bitches."

Then he put his head down and continued eating and drinking.

The girl obviously heard this sentence, she turned her head and gave this side a hard look.

Just about to say something, her eyes fell on the blazing bird on Xiu Yi's shoulder.

The next moment, she yelled loudly: "Blazing bird? It's a flaming bird! Come on, catch them!"
