Chapter 623: Who Is Driving All This?
Central Military Headquarters.
Colonel Roy looked at the Philosopher's Stone research information in his hand expressionlessly, but from his slightly trembling hands, it could be seen that Roy's heart was not at peace.
You could hear needles dropping in Roy's office, and the atmosphere at the scene became very heavy. Everyone seemed to feel something and just waited silently.
After carefully reading the research materials, Roy slowly put down the book in his hand, took a deep breath, suppressed the anger in his heart, and said in a deep voice, "I didn't expect that the top brass of the military department has become so corrupt. , using living people as experimental materials, this kind of inhumane thing can be done."
Hearing this, Hughes couldn't help but said, "I'm afraid that the reason why the Fifth Research Institute equipment was placed next to the central prison was to facilitate the acquisition of death row prisoners for experiments."
"Only death row prisoners are not enough." Roy closed his eyes slightly after hearing this.
As he said that, Roy suddenly opened his eyes, as if there was anger burning in them, and continued, "This huge amount of data is not something that death row prisoners can provide. There must be something in it that we are not aware of." dark."
Hughes seemed to have guessed what Roy meant. His expression was shocked, and his expression calmed down unconsciously, with a thoughtful look on his face.
Roy ignored Hughes's reaction, but stood up directly, picked up the clothes hanging on the chair, and said, "Let's go, Hughes, let's go find Gang Lian. I have a lot of questions to ask him now. "
"Whether Gang Lian and the others knew about the Fifth Research Institute back then, or whether they found this research material now, it's such a coincidence."
As he spoke, Roy's face gradually became serious and he said, "There must be someone behind this book who is driving all of this. Now we must find out the intentions of the person behind the scenes, otherwise we will really have trouble sleeping and eating."
To be honest, Hughes was smarter than Roy and realized this earlier than Roy. He even vaguely guessed who the person behind the scenes was.
However, Hughes inferred a more terrifying truth from it. This truth was so terrifying that Hughes subconsciously denied it.
Think about it for a moment, why is the person behind the scenes pushing all this silently? Is it just to let Edward or us know about this?
And where did the person behind the scenes know this information? There were also too many doubts about Isaac at the beginning. No, it was not just Isaac's problem, but there were many problems in the country itself.
The person behind the scenes may have discovered these problems, or discovered that there is an invisible hand behind the Amestoris Kingdom, and is using the entire Amestoris Kingdom as a chessboard to plot. What.
Hughes didn't know it at first, but now after seeing this research material, Hughes has a strong hunch in his heart that what the mastermind behind the scenes is seeking is probably related to the Philosopher's Stone.
Because of this, the man behind Edward was quietly promoting all of this, just to stand on the other end of the chessboard and play against the man behind the scenes.
Regardless of who is behind the scenes, the man behind this country is most likely President Kim Bradley! !
This is what Hughes least wants to believe. The president of a country is actually planning such a terrifying thing. Once word spreads, it will really cause civil strife in the entire Amestoris country.
Central Hospital, in Ward 125.
The two brothers Edward and Alphonse are waiting for news from Hughes. In fact, the two brothers Edward and Alphonse are also a little uneasy because they don't know which side Colonel Roy is from.
However, because Roy was the one who brought Edward to become the national alchemist, Edward and Alphonse were more willing to trust Roy. Of course, Edward and Alphonse were prepared to escape as necessary.
As for Winry, because Edward’s robotic arm was repaired and Edward’s urging,
Now I'm on the train home.
After all, the situation in Central City is a bit unstable now, and it is not safe for Wen Li to stay here any longer.
"Knock knock."
Just then, there was a knock on the door.
The two brothers Edward and Alphonse thought it was Hughes who was back, so they didn't think much and said directly, "Come in."
The person outside the door did not hesitate, opened the door and walked in. He looked at the two brothers Edward and Alphonse, smiled slightly and said, "It seems that you have already made your choice."
"It's you, Chen Anxia!" Edward said excitedly after seeing the person coming.
Alphonse on the side was also very excited, because the two brothers already had many problems, and after seeing the research materials, the problems in their hearts increased instead of decreasing.
The most important problem is that the method of restoring the body mentioned by Chen Anxia is not just the Philosopher's Stone. This is something Edward must figure out no matter what.
Chen Anxia saw this and said directly, "I know you have many questions you want to ask, but listen to me first."
After hearing this, Edward and Alphonse both suppressed the questions that kept popping up in their hearts, and just looked at Chen Anxia quietly and listened to Chen Anxia's words.
"I believe you must be very curious about who attacked you in Lior and the Fifth Research Institute." Chen Anxia couldn't help but said after seeing this.
"Do you know their identities?" Edward and Alphonse asked in shock upon hearing this.
"I know, but I won't tell you directly." Chen Anxia nodded.
"Why?" Edward and Alphonse were a little confused. They had no idea what the meaning of Chen Anxia's actions was. Could it be that he was deliberately showing off that he knew more?
"Because there will be a more powerful enemy behind them, which even I can't compete with. However, I have been looking for ways to eliminate it, so I need your help." Chen Anxia said seriously.
Edward and Alphonse's expressions were constantly shaking, with incredible looks on their faces. They had seen Chen Anxia's strength with their own eyes. They knew how strong Chen Anxia was, and because they knew it, they were even more incredible.
Trying to suppress the turbulent thoughts in his heart, Edward took a deep breath, looked at Chen Anxia and said solemnly, "Why do you need our help? Even you can't defeat it? Can you defeat it with us?"
"Of course not." Chen Anxia shook his head gently when he heard this and said, "It's just that you two brothers are both its targets. You will definitely meet in the future, and what I have to do is to do everything well before that." preparation."
"Hey, wait a minute? You said that both of us brothers are its targets? Aren't I the only one?" Edward seemed to have heard something, and said with some shock and confusion.
The same was true for Alphonse on the side. Chen Anxia frowned slightly when he saw this, and couldn't help but said, "It seems that you are so young that you haven't even noticed why the enemy regards you as a target."
Chen Anxia then asked, "Think carefully about what is different about you from others and what is most likely to attract them."
Edward and Alphonse couldn't help but froze for a moment after hearing this, then they frowned slightly and began to think. Soon, Edward thought of the key point, his pupils shrank suddenly and said, "Is it because we have performed human body training? "
Upon seeing this, Chen Anxia said directly, "Further, because you have all seen the truth, they also call those who have seen the truth human pillars, which is the key to their plan."
After hearing Chen Anxia's words, Edward and Alphonse couldn't help showing a look of surprise on their faces. It turned out that this was the human pillar.
However, soon, Alphonse was a little confused 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, who doesn't need to practice the formation." Can you activate alchemy?"
Hearing this, Chen Anxia looked at the confused Edward and Alphonse, and said directly, "Edward saw the truth and received knowledge from the truth, so he paid the price, which is a certain part of his body."
"And Alphonse, you gained knowledge from the truth at the cost of your entire body, so you gained more knowledge than Edward."
"However, it is also this that interferes with your memory and makes you temporarily forget everything that happened at that time. When you really remember it, you will naturally be able to activate alchemy like Edward without forming a formation."
When Alphonse heard this, he just stretched out his palm silently 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 Nest in Dablis to find someone. His name is Glid. You need to make him your companion, a true companion."
"Glid attaches great importance to companionship and wants a true soul partner. Maybe you can start from this point."
"Why don't you go by yourself?" Edward frowned slightly and asked.
"I still have things to do in Central City, so 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 from Glid." Chen Anxia shook his head gently. He shook his head and responded.
As he said that, Chen Anxia looked at Edward and Alphonse and continued, "Your current strength is too weak. You must increase your strength as soon as possible. Isn't your master Izmi Cadiz also in Dabulis?" , let’s go and practice again.”
After a pause, Chen Anxia seemed to feel something. She frowned slightly and said softly, "Maybe it's time to meet her."
While Chen Anxia was talking, the door of the ward was 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 serious.
The atmosphere at the scene gradually began to become heavy.
