Central Military Department.

Colonel Roy looked at the research materials of the Philosopher's Stone in his hand expressionlessly, but from his slightly trembling hands, it could be seen that Roy's heart was not at peace.

The needle drop was also heard in Roy's office, and the atmosphere at the scene became very heavy, and everyone seemed to feel something, just waiting silently.

After carefully reading the research materials, I saw Roy slowly put down the book in his hand, took a deep breath, forced to suppress the anger in his heart, and said in a deep voice, "I didn't expect that the high-level military department has been corrupted to such a point, and even using living people as experimental materials, such inhumane things can be done." ”

Hearing this, Hughes couldn't help but speak, "I'm afraid that the Fifth Research Institute was placed next to the Central Prison in the first place, and it was also to facilitate getting death row inmates to do experiments." ”

"Death row prisoners alone are not enough." Roy closed his eyes slightly when he heard this.

As he spoke, he saw Roy suddenly open his eyes, as if there was anger burning in them, and he continued, "Such a huge amount of data in this is not something that a death row prisoner can provide, and there must be darkness in it that we are not aware of." ”

Hughes seemed to have guessed what Roy meant, his expression was shocked, and his face unconsciously sank, with a thoughtful look on his face.

Roy ignored Hughes's reaction, but just got up, picked up the clothes hanging from the chair, and said, "Let's go, Hughes, let's go find the steel chain, I have a stomach of questions to ask him right now." ”

"Whether it was the fact that they knew about the Fifth Research Institute at the beginning, or whether they found this research material now, it was too much of a coincidence."

Saying that, Roy's face gradually became serious, and he said, "There must be someone behind this book who is pushing all this, and now we must figure out the intentions of this person behind the scenes, otherwise it will really be difficult to sleep." ”

To be honest, Hughes was smarter than Roy, and he had noticed this earlier than Roy, and even Hughes had vaguely guessed who was behind the scenes.

It's just that Hughes speculated on an even more terrifying truth from it, which is too terrifying to make Hughes subconsciously deny it.

Think about it for a moment, why did this person behind the scenes silently promote all this, is it just to let Edward, or maybe we know about it?

And where did this person behind the scenes know all this news? And there are too many doubts about what happened to Isaac at the beginning, no, it's not just Isaac's problem, but the country itself has a lot of problems.

It is likely that the person behind the scenes discovered these problems, or rather, that behind the kingdom of Amistolis, there was an invisible hand that was using the entire kingdom of Amerstorius as a chessboard, seeking something.

Hughes didn't know it at first, but now after seeing this research material, Hughes has a strong premonition in his heart that what the mastermind behind the scenes is likely to have something to do with the Philosopher's Stone.

Therefore, the person behind Edward is silently pushing all this, in order to stand on the other side of the chessboard and play with the mastermind behind the scenes.

Regardless of who is behind the scenes, but the mastermind behind this country is most likely the President Kim Bradley!!

This is also the point that Hughes is most reluctant to believe, the president of a country is actually seeking such a terrible thing, once it spreads, it will really cause civil strife in the entire country of Amerstolis.

Central Hospital, Ward 125.

The two brothers, Edward and Alphonse, were waiting for news from Hughes, in fact, the two brothers Edward and Alphonse were also a little apprehensive, because they didn't know which side of Colonel Roy was.

However, because Roy was the one who brought Edward to become the national alchemist in the first place, Edward and Alphonse were also more willing to believe Roy, and of course, Edward and Alphonse had the necessary preparations to escape.

As for Wen Li, because Edward's mechanical arm was repaired, coupled with Edward's urging, she is now on the train home.

After all, the situation in Central City is a little unstable now, and it is a little unsafe for Wen Li to stay here.

"Knock knock."

Just then, there was a knock on the door.

The two brothers, Edward and Alphonse, thought that Hughes was back, and they didn't think much about it, and said directly, "Come in." ”

The person outside the door did not hesitate, directly pushed the door and walked in, looked at the two brothers, Edward and Alphons, and smiled slightly, "It seems that you have made a choice." ”

"It's you, Chen Anxia!" When Edward saw the visitor, he said with great emotion.

Alphonse on the side was also very excited, because now the two brothers already had a lot of problems, and after seeing the research materials, the problems in their hearts increased instead of decreasing.

The main problem is that the method of restoring the body that Chen Anxia said is not only the Philosopher's Stone, which Edward has to figure out no matter what.

Seeing this, Chen Anxia said directly, "I know you have a lot of questions to ask, but listen to me first." ”

Edward and Alphonse also forcibly suppressed the questions that kept popping up in their hearts when they heard this, and just looked at Chen Anxia quietly and listened to Chen Anxia's words.

"You must be curious about who attacked you in Leol and the Fifth Research Institute." Seeing this, Chen Anxia couldn't help but speak.

"Do you know who they are?" Edward and Alphonse looked a little shocked when they heard this.

"I know, but I won't tell you directly." Chen Anxia nodded in response.

"Why?" Edward and Alphonse's heads were a little confused, and they didn't understand the meaning of Chen Anxia's doing this. Is it deliberately to show off that you know more?

"Because they will have a more powerful enemy behind them, one that even I can't contend with, but I'm always looking for a way to destroy it, so I need your help." Chen Anxia said with a serious expression.

Edward and Alphonse's expressions continued to shake, their faces were full of incredulity, they had seen Chen Anxia's strength with their own eyes, they knew how strong Chen Anxia's strength was, and it was because they knew that it was even more incredible.

Trying to suppress the turbulent thoughts in his heart, he saw Edward take a deep breath, look at Chen Anxia and say in a condensed voice, "Why do you need our help, even you can't defeat it?" Could it be that with the addition we will be able to defeat it? ”

"Of course not." Chen Anxia shook his head lightly when he heard this, and said, "It's just that you two brothers are its targets, and you will definitely face each other in the future, and what I have to do is to make all preparations before this." ”

"Hey, wait a minute? You say both of us brothers are its targets? Isn't I the only one? Edward seemed to hear something, and was a little shocked and confused.

The same was true for Alphonse on the side, Chen Anxia frowned slightly when he saw this, and couldn't help but say, "It seems that you are really too tender, and you haven't even noticed why the enemy regards you as a target." ”

Saying that, Chen Anxia asked rhetorically, "Think about it, what is different from others in you, and what is most likely to attract them." ”

Edward and Alphonse couldn't help but be stunned for a moment when they heard this, and then frowned slightly and began to think, and soon, Edward thought of the key point, and his pupils couldn't help but shrink suddenly, "Is it because we have carried out human body refining?" ”

Seeing this, Chen Anxia directly said, "One step further, because you have all seen the truth, and they also call those who have seen the truth human pillars, which is the key to their plans. ”

After hearing Chen Anxia's words, Edward and Alphonse couldn't help but show a sudden look on their faces, it turned out that this was the human pillar.

However, soon, I saw Alphonse a little puzzled and said, "No, I don't seem to have seen the truth, not only do I have no memory of this, but I can't be like my brother, I can launch alchemy without refining into a formation?" ”

Hearing this, Chen Anxia looked at Edward and Alphons, who were puzzled, and said directly, "Edward saw the truth and received knowledge from the truth, so he paid the price, that is, a certain part of his body." ”

"Alphonse, on the other hand, you have gained knowledge from the truth at the cost of your whole body, so you have gained more knowledge than Edward."

"However, it is also this that interferes with your memory, making you temporarily forget everything that happened at that time, and when you really remember, you can naturally start alchemy without refining into a formation, just like Edward."

Hearing this, Alphonse just silently stretched out his palm and looked at it, not knowing what he was thinking.

Edward on the side looked at Chen Anxia and asked, "What do you need us to do?" ”

Hearing this, Chen Anxia said directly, "I need you to go to the devil's lair in Dablis to find someone, his name is Glied, you need to make him your companion, a real companion." ”

"Glied is a man who values friendship very much, and wants a true soul mate, and you may be able to start with that."

"Why don't you go yourself?" Edward frowned slightly when he heard this, and asked.

"I still have things to do in Central City, I can't be separated for the time being, and you are more suitable than me, as for the identity of the enemy who attacked you, you can also know it from the person Glied." Chen Anxia shook his head lightly and responded.

As he spoke, he saw Chen Anxia looking at Edward and Alphonse and continued, "Your current strength is too weak, you must strengthen your strength as soon as possible, your master Izmi Cadiz is not also in Dablis, by the way, go and practice again." ”

After a pause, I saw that Chen Anxia seemed to feel something, her brows couldn't help frowning slightly, and she said softly, "Perhaps, it's time to meet each other." ”

While Chen Anxia was talking, he saw the door of the ward be pushed open, and Roy, Hughes, and Lisa walked in from outside the ward.

At first glance, Roy, Hughes and Lisa saw Chen Anxia in the ward, and their eyes couldn't help but become calm.

The atmosphere of the scene gradually began to become heavy.
