"Are you... kidding! You bastard!" Looking at the ashes getting closer and closer, Cornero began to panic. What is a synthetic beast? Using powerful beasts and alchemy to combine the bodies of different animals to form

A monster, such a monster is as scared as a sick cat in front of this person...

But this is not the reason why I am afraid. After all, they are still artificial creatures, and the one who created these is really me, Lord Cornero!

Thinking of this, Cornero's retreating steps gradually stopped, and a smile appeared at the corner of his mouth. "Hmph, killing a beast is nothing! I am the incarnation of God and represent God's will!"

Red lightning flashed, and the wooden cane in Cornero's hand turned into a Gatling machine gun in front of everyone, pointing at Mr. Ashes who was moving forward...

When Edward saw this situation, he hurriedly clasped his hands together and slapped them on the ground. A burst of lightning flashed, and Ashes and Cornero saw a high wall suddenly erected.

Gunshots rang out, and the sound of earth and rocks collapsing could be heard endlessly. Hui Jin turned his head helplessly and looked at Edward who breathed a long sigh of relief.

"You guy, why are you so reckless? Fortunately, I reacted quickly! Come on, we have to run away!" After saying this, he hurriedly ran out with Rose.

Ashes looked at the fireproof girl, shrugged helplessly, and could only run away with the two brothers. Although he didn't know what they were going to do, they looked very interesting...

After going all the way, Edward didn't know what he said to Alphonse and then disconnected midway. Only Alphonse was left to take Rose and Ashes forward.

Arriving at the top of a bell tower, Alphonse found a broken speaker from somewhere and drew a formation to prepare for repairs.

At this moment, Rose walked towards the ashes hesitantly, and asked with some reluctance, "Excuse me, why is it true that what you said about the Philosopher's Stone...and that you can't be resurrected...is it true?"

"

Ash lowered his head and looked at the girl with tears in her eyes. He couldn't help but tilted his head, looked at the girl and asked, "So, one question, who is the person you want to resurrect?"

Rose said with hope, "He is my boyfriend...my lover. I hope he can be resurrected because he is..."

Stretching out his hand to stop Rose's words, Ash lowered his head and looked at her with wide eyes and asked, "I don't want to know the reason for his death. What I want to ask you is...why can't you respect the facts?"

Rose's body shrank back, and then she said tremblingly, "What the truth!"

"Why can't you accept that life has passed away? Why can't you accept it? Life is fragile, and as long as you live, you will die. Why don't you want to accept that the living will eventually pass away?" Ashes said slowly.

"Ah, I understand. Because of selfishness, because he left before you. You selfishly hope that he will stay. You just hope that the dead will be resurrected and stay with you again...is that so?"

"Mr. Ashes...please stop talking, okay?" Alphonse's hands kept shaking, and his armor kept shaking...

"Oh, did I say something I shouldn't have said? I'm so fragile... But remember these words well. Life is not allowed to be blasphemed, and souls are not allowed to be blasphemed! The return of the living!

Return of the dead to the dead! Trying to reverse the consequences will result in consequences that humans cannot bear!"

"My brother and I... we have paid the price... we have paid the price..." Alphonse's voice trembled.

Rose stepped forward eagerly and asked, "Alphonse, are you okay? You..." After saying this, she reached out and wanted to take off Alphonse's helmet to wipe away his possible tears, but she saw that under the armor,

Nothing…

Taking two steps back, Rose covered her mouth and fell to the ground, looking at the scene in front of her in shock, "This... what on earth is going on?"

Alphonse put on his helmet and said in a serious tone, "We...we just wanted to see our mother again and tried to resurrect her...but we failed. My brother lost his right hand and left leg, and I lost all my

Body, this is the price we pay..."

After hearing these words, Rose asked hopefully, "So... did you succeed? Is your mother resurrected?"

Ashes couldn't help but frowned, and said angrily, "I've forgotten what I said before. It's impossible. The dead cannot be resurrected. The death of the body is decay and it returns to this world. The death of the soul is also natural.

Returning to the essence of this world is an irreversible process!"

Alphonse on the side also nodded and said, "As Mr. Ashes said, the dead cannot be resurrected. What we made is a monster. We failed and paid the price, but got nothing..."

"No, it's not that you got nothing, you just got something you didn't want. Since it is alchemy, it will naturally abide by the principle of equivalent exchange. This is absolutely unchanged..." Ashes shook his head and looked at Al

Feng Si said calmly.

Alphonse was stunned for a moment, and then sighed helplessly, "Yes, my brother has gained a lot of knowledge, but this knowledge is not enough to change us back...not enough to make up for our mistakes..."

At this moment, a voice came from the large loudspeaker that Alphonse had repaired. It sounded like Edward and Cornero were having a conversation...

"Let me get straight to the point and ask, what on earth do you want to use the Philosopher's Stone for? With such a treasure, what kind of religious order do you need?"

"Huh huh huh, the Philosopher's Stone gave me power, the cult gave me followers, and asked them to believe in me, and then one day they would be willing to die for me! With an army that is not afraid of death, in a few years, I will be able to separate myself from one side.

, all rely on the power of the Philosopher’s Stone and the power of these ignorant believers! Hahaha”

Hearing this idiot introduce himself to his family and tell everything about himself without any reservation, Hui Jin helplessly covered his face, "You still want to separate the country? Does he treat everyone as a fool..."

Rose also heard it, not just Rose, but all the followers of the Rete Cult in the city heard it. Finally, the leader himself also heard it.

"You guy! When did you prepare the speakers, bastard!"

Alphonse, who was holding a loudspeaker to broadcast the entire broadcast, looked at Rose who was collapsed on the ground and said, "There is no miracle technique, it is all the power of the Philosopher's Stone, but I can't understand the power of Mr. Ashes."

"Ah, you're talking about this? Haha, this is just like what stupid pope said. It's really just a magic trick, just for coaxing children..." Hui Jing couldn't help but look away, laughed twice, and then explained stiffly.

arrive.

Even he himself didn't believe this explanation, but it was an explanation after all... Alphonse didn't delve deeper into it. "Really, magic? It's really a powerful magic trick..."

"Really...is there really no way? He is dead...the things that once supported me are gone, how should I live?" Rose covered her face and cried in pain.

Ashes squatted down and looked at the crying Rose and said, "Aren't your legs still fine? Why is the thing that supports you gone? The dead should rest in peace, and the living should encourage themselves. If you miss them, take them with you."

The will to live better, the living are the continuation of the dead!"

After saying that, Ashes turned and left the clock tower, walked down, and murmured to himself, "Okay, okay, now, it's time to wrap things up properly, and it's time to take a look at... this is the Philosopher's Stone.

What the hell is this?”

Slowly arriving at the main hall of the Rete Church, he saw Edward who was fighting fiercely and Cornero who had almost turned himself into a giant. Ashes was stunned and looked curiously at Edward who was struggling to resist Cornero's huge fist.

He asked, "What's wrong with him? Is it possible that some god has taken over him?"

"Who knows... This guy seems to have been backlashed by the Philosopher's Stone, and then he became like this..." Edward tried his best to stop Cornero's advancing fist while still answering Ashes' question. It was really

Very busy...

Cornero looked at his fist being stopped and grinned, "Humph, do you think you can beat me? My fist is the fist of God!"

As he spoke, the other mutated arm that originally supported the huge body stretched out and struck straight towards Edward.

Seeing Edward being sent flying by the hammer, Hui Jin couldn't help but sigh, "Drink, it's really flying high. Isn't the scenery up there nice? Let's take a look at it more now..."

Edward, who was in the air, responded angrily, "I'm not a dwarf! Ashes, watch your back!" He originally complained about Ashes' teasing, but when he saw Cornero's fist rushing towards Ashes, he couldn't help but remind him loudly.

"You guys, do you want to see a miracle? Isn't this right in front of you! Look at my god-like posture!" Coniello saw that the sneak attack failed, and shouted loudly, with a huge fist making a sound of breaking the wind,

Hit it straight at the ashes...

Looking at the huge fist coming towards him like a wall in front of him, Hui Jin helplessly shook his head, "Really, why don't you put a Storm Controller at your feet?"

The fist rushed straight towards Ashes who was stunned on the spot. Ashes rolled his eyes helplessly, stretched out his gloved hand, pointed at the overwhelming Pope Conyero not far away, and said with a smile, "Okay

Now, let me purify your soul too...of course, using flames..."

The flames enveloped Cornero, and the painful wails echoed in the church, but it didn't sound like one person's voice, but more like the voices of many people overlapping together. It turned out... this is the Philosopher's Stone, but...

How is this kind of thing produced?…

Ashes frowned and couldn't help but wonder. The soul in this world seemed so strange to him. Why could it form such a substance? This is not how the soul crystallizes. It's really strange...

A ball of fire shot into the sky, illuminating the entire church like daylight. After a while, the huge ball of fire dispersed, and the wailing stopped, leaving only a ball of charcoal and a red gem.
