Legend of Fireman's Dimensional Journey

Ashes frowned, and couldn't help being a little puzzled. The soul of this world seemed so strange to him, why could it form such a substance?Soul crystallization is not like this, how strange...

A ball of fire shot up into the sky, illuminating the entire church like daytime. After a while, the huge fire ball dissipated, and the wailing stopped, leaving only a ball of coke and a red gemstone …

Chapter 138 A Poor Imitation

Edward rushed over in a hurry, seeing Edward who was suffering from the heat but still approaching the gem, Ashes couldn't help but sighed, "No need to go, which one has no energy, otherwise it won't bite him back!"

Edward turned his head hastily, looked at Ashes, and asked in surprise, "What? Isn't the Philosopher's Stone a perfect substance? How could it have no energy?"

Ashes sighed helplessly, "Everything in this world abides by the principle of equivalent exchange. Isn't this the principle of alchemists? Why do you think the ultimate creation of alchemy will violate this principle?"

Edward turned his head to look, and saw that the original bright red gem faded like a fake, then rolled to the ground, turned into a cloud of powder, and dissipated in the air.

Seeing this scene, Edward couldn't help but feel a little lost, curled his lips, and said helplessly, "What, it turned out to be a fake...I'm really speechless."

At this moment, Ashes stepped forward and dipped his finger in the powder made from the Sage's Stone, and put it in his mouth, but just after putting it in, he spit it out...

"Why, eating a mouthful of dust doesn't make you feel good," Edward said with a gloating smile as he watched Ash Ash's performance.

But Ashes shook his head helplessly, squinted his eyes and said, "I don't think the dust is dirty, but in my mouth just now, the cleanest thing is the dust..."

"It can't be called a fake. It can only be said that there are too many impurities, and it's not perfect, and the quantity is too small." Ashes spat out the things in his mouth, suddenly looked at Edward seriously, and said seriously.

"What does this mean? You mean this is the Philosopher's Stone?" Edward frowned, looked at Ashes puzzled, and asked eagerly.

After all, what might have been the Philosopher's Stone dissipated in front of him just now. If it was true, the blow would be too great...

After thinking for a while, Ashes answered Edward's question, "It is both a Philosopher's Stone and not a Philosopher's Stone."

Looking at the more confused Edward, Ashes said helplessly, "For other alchemists, the Philosopher's Stone can increase alchemy, so it is, but for you, the Philosopher's Stone should be able to restore your body. something, so it's not!"

"That is to say... something like a defective product or a semi-finished product?" After listening to Ashes' explanation, Edward's clever brain finally turned around, and said with a helpless sigh.

Ashes nodded, and said helplessly, "Although not exactly, but the meaning is similar. In short, this thing is completely unable to fulfill your wishes, and after seeing this thing, I began to suspect that even if it is genuine, it may not be able to fulfill your wishes." purpose..."

"Even so, we have to try. This is the only clue we know now, and I won't give up!" After speaking, Edward turned and left the church.

Seeing Edward leaving, Ashes couldn't help but fell into deep thought. He tasted the dregs just now. Although it was unpalatable to death, he probably knew something. How should I put it... This kind of thing is really disgusting.

How should I put it, the crystallization, materialization, and energyization of the soul in the black soul world can almost be said to be the works of many gods. King Gwen, King Nite, the old witch, and Bailong, several gods exist Work together to make the soul of the black soul world so widely used.

But this Philosopher's Stone is like a poor imitation, similar but different, it is also a derivative of the soul, but the human nature has not been removed, and the human nature and the soul are mixed together, resulting in the inferiority of the soul power. Change.

And... it seems to be done on purpose... Who the hell made this kind of thing, and how did he know this kind of skill...

All kinds of questions lingered in Ashes' mind, and they couldn't solve them. They couldn't figure out anything at all, and they didn't have any clues at all.

"The boat will go straight when it reaches the bridge. What are you thinking about now? I'm here to travel and be reckless. It would be great if I can collect some soul power..." Ashes sighed and decided to let go of his own thoughts. Cell, in short, they will not go wrong with Edward for the time being, and then you have to pay attention to it, the soul of this place is a little different...

Turning around and leaving the burning-smelling church, Ashes saw the smiling fire girl waiting for her outside the door and the silent and slightly depressed Elric brothers.

"Why...disappointed? Where did you come from? Didn't you just become a national alchemist? Shouldn't you be happy to have come into contact with the Philosopher's Stone so soon..." Greeted the Fireproof Girl, Ashes He smiled and teased Brother Elric.

"Let's go! We can't stop here, there are still many roads ahead, and there are many thorns on the road! We will not give up because of a little setback!" Edward raised his head, looking at the sunset in the sky with burning eyes, Speaking firmly, I don't know who to say it to...

……

The four of them took the train back to the Eastern Command, which is where Mustang is now stationed, but it seems that it has not been very peaceful recently...

Looking at the panic-stricken passers-by, Ashes couldn't help sighing, "It's really troublesome, why is it so unlucky... I just came back and got into trouble, can't you let me take a break? No, I will definitely not participate in this incident ..."

Ashes, who had made up his mind so secretly, walked into the headquarters quickly, and saw Colonel Mustang, "It's been dealt with, the cult, who wants to overthrow the regime, has been dealt with..."

"Really, I have also received information here. Good job, thank you for your efforts!" Mustang sat on the seat in the posture of a commander, but unfortunately he did not have reflective glasses...

Edward waved his hand and said helplessly, "You don't need to thank me, I didn't go for you..."

Looking at the very impatient Edward, Mustang laughed, "So, did you not find the Philosopher's Stone this time?"

Edward sighed, and said helplessly, "I found it... but it's a defective product or a fake, it's not what we want... But even so, the power is still very strong, and it can be synthesized into a powerful synthetic beast." .”

Alphonse on the side also said helplessly, "But we don't understand the content, because we are really not familiar with the aspect of refining life... so we don't know how to use the Philosopher's Stone to achieve this step... "

"But I'm a little interested. If I can understand the content, it might help us return to our previous bodies..." Edward said solemnly, pinching his chin.

Mustang smiled slightly, took out a document from his drawer, handed it to the two brothers, and said with a smile, "Then, why don't you ask the experts for advice?",

"The alchemist of zhu (zhu) life, Xiu Taka, he is a researcher in the synthesis of synthetic beasts. I can introduce you to him." Pointing to the person on the document, Mustang said with a smile.

Edward suddenly jumped up and pointed at Mustang suspiciously, "There is a conspiracy, there must be a conspiracy, what the hell are you trying to do!"

"What are you talking about, you bastard! I just want the favor from Lior, and I don't want to owe you any favors!"

Ashes laughed, and said sinisterly, "Then, Colonel, how are you going to repay my favor?"

Mustang conveniently lifted a pen holder from the table, and threw it at Ashes, "You bastard, you have been eating and drinking for nothing at the headquarters for so long, and you still show affection. I didn't say that you owe me favors!"

"It's really ruthless, Colonel, I'm obviously the main force this time, whether it's a synthetic beast or a foolish pope, I killed them all..." Ashes caught the pen holder, and gently put it back to its original place, with a low voice. Said loudly.

"Really, it's fine if you kill, I owe you one..." Mustang glanced at Edward at the side, and said helplessly to Ashes.

But Ashes waved his hand, pulled up the fireproof woman and said, "No need, I don't like to owe people anything, and I don't like others to owe me anything, so just give me two days off. Let's go, Colonel!"

Looking at Ashes who turned and left, Mustang gritted his teeth and said, "This bastard...is so lazy, I really want him to dig coal in the black coal kiln!"

"Don't be angry, Colonel Mustang, let's go meet this death-defying alchemist, isn't Mr. Ash always like this?" Alphonse looked at the distraught Mustang, and hurried forward to comfort him, By the way, I also hacked poor Mr. Ash...

Ashes was walking boredly on the street, and the fire prevention woman behind her was suddenly a little speechless, "Master Ashes, are you not going to intervene for the time being? Aren't there a lot of things going on?"
