Chapter 615 81 People Who Always Miss the Past Cannot Create the Future

Chapter 615 81. People who always miss the past cannot create the future.

"Brother, do we really want to do this?"

Alphonse looked at the silent Edward next to him, and he said uneasily:

"We don't understand the principle of the cosmic tuning fork at all, and we are not sure whether the truth replacement of the formation can also be effective on that kind of cosmic-level mechanical object. It seems a bit irresponsible to boast about it like this, right?"

"It doesn't matter."

The blond Edward put his hands in the pockets of his windbreaker, curled his lips and said:

"We don't understand, and Mason must know very well. The first thing he does when he gets new things is to figure out the structure of those things. If my guess is correct, what he lacks now is not the skills to repair it, but the lack of it. Ingredients for repair.

So in theory, we are not going to help him repair that thing, we just need to provide him with enough materials.

He can also form formations.

Moreover, that guy's clone manufacturing team uses the refining array to make thousands of items every day. His mastery of the refining array has long been much deeper than ours, no, any alchemist we know. . "

"That's what I said"

Alphonse lowered his head. He secretly glanced at Edward's face and said:

"I mean, if we give all these things to Mason, doesn't it mean that we have to give up our plan to return to our home world?"

"You think I do!"

Edward gritted his teeth and said:

"Of course we can choose to stand by and not help him, and then the angry master rushes in and beats us to death while vomiting blood. We specially called the master and colonel here, and now there is only so little time left to send them away. It is too late. .

If this world disappears, Master, them and us will all be doomed.

Hey, I seriously doubt that all this was expected by Mason, that guy is the most scheming! "

"Well, I believe Mason is a resourceful man, but is that a bit exaggerated?"

Alphonse scratched his head and was about to say a few more words to his brother when he saw the door in front of him being pushed open. The old Green Goblin stood at the door and looked at them both, then stepped aside to get out of the way.

Silver hair was flying in the air, and the hunter holding a sword hilt walked into the room.

Ciri, who came from the SHIELD world, glanced at the alchemist brothers and said:

"Mason said that you have important items to give to him. I will escort you to the city of Attilan. The situation there is a bit delicate now, and you cannot get there through any normal means."

"good."

Edward stood up and lifted up the plain alchemy box at his feet. Alphonse beside him also lifted up two other identical alchemy boxes.

Shirley opened a rift leading to the isolated city of Attilan on the bottom of the Atlantic Ocean. When the two brothers approached, the space rift quickly shrank as if it had been disturbed, and was quickly blocked by the hunter's wide-eyed gaze. bridge.

"Wait! What are you carrying in your hands?"

She asked:

"Why does it cause such a big interference to space? Do you carry space gems?"

"How could we possibly have something of that level?"

Edward curled his lips and said:

"It's just the Philosopher's Stone. There are just a lot of them, so please don't worry, Master Hunter."

"You weren't like this before. It seems that after having too much contact with Mason, you two young people who were originally indifferent have your own secrets."

Shirley complained, stretched out her fingers and increased her strength to reopen the space rift. The pressure caused by the two brothers walking into it made the hunter grit his teeth.

"Something's wrong!"

She whispered:

"There must be something else going on with these two brothers. The level of interference is too exaggerated. I have to follow them and take a look."

"You can go if you want, no need to make excuses for yourself."

The old Green Goblin who was watching this scene said casually:

"If the cosmic tuning fork cannot be activated before time runs out, the worlds that have begun to merge will be crushed simultaneously at the moment of plane collision.

That is a powerful force that we cannot resist despite all our wisdom and perseverance. Like others who are still sticking to their posts, I still have not given up, but this does not prevent us from spending the last bit of time with the most important people in our lives.

This may be the last time we meet them.

Based on Mason's character, I don't think he will choose to live an ignoble existence after the fusion fails. Perhaps he will choose to turn into stardust in the universe with our world. "

"I'm really worried about his safety, but... forget it, you can understand it however you want."

Ciri gave up the explanation and planned to open the door again and head to Attilan City. However, unexpectedly, a burning blue motorcycle roared, smashed the glass, and parked in the middle of the old Green Goblin's office, turning this well-decorated office away. Made a mess.

Harley, who was wearing goggles, and Quinn, who was wearing a helmet, jumped out of the car panting. They had rushed back from the Isu world. At this time when the gate to the world had failed, they specifically asked Hei Qiyi for help. In order to travel through the planes.

"We're going to meet sweetie!"

Two crazy girls each hugged a dog and tied a strange bottle around their waists and shouted:

"Even if I die, I will die with him."

"Then come over and let's go there together."

Ciri said something.

Harley and Quinn looked at each other, and their eyes revealed a meaning that was so complicated that only the two of them could understand it instantly. They didn't know what kind of mental state they had gone through after the exchange. In short, the two of them stood on the left and right of Shirley. beside.

The Lord Hunter sighed, stretched out his hand and held the wrists of Harley and Quinn. As he took a step forward to open the rift leading to Attilan City, Harley suddenly asked in a low voice:

"Did you sleep with him?"

"Ahem. What the hell kind of question are you asking?"

Shirley almost couldn't breathe. She blushed and glared at Harry. This expression made Harley curl her lips. It was so innocent, and she was still a young child at first glance.

But then I became happy again. Mr. K really loved me and was very protective of me.

"Ignore her, she's not thinking right."

Quinn said quietly next to her:

"I have long told her to trust Sweetie, but she has been suspicious all day long. Don't pay attention to her and just do whatever you want to do with Sweetie. It's actually quite interesting to see normal people like you fall in love."

"Huh? Don't you care?"

Shirley asked in surprise. Quinn looked her up and down and curled her lips and said:

"You have made up your mind to die with your sweetheart, so what do I care about? Love is indeed a difficult thing to understand, but if you choose to use death to interpret it, then I have nothing to say.

But you have to bring your own urn, mine and Halle's are not for you to use. "

"Uh, so what you are holding is an urn? I thought it was a drinking cup. Well, I really shouldn't try to understand you."

Xili complained, and the next moment the three people disappeared in the silver light curtain.

When they arrived at Attilan City, Mason was already talking to the two Elric brothers at the door of the room where the cosmic tuning fork was. They were both alchemists, so there was no need to hide some things.

As soon as they met, Edward handed Mason the alchemy box in his hand.

The captain took it over, opened it and took a look inside. This box with a traceless extension spell inside was densely filled with blood-red philosopher's stones. There were more than two hundred of them in the upper layer alone. If you count them, If the seamless extension space inside is filled up, this box alone will contain nearly 3,000 weak magic stones.

Including the two boxes in Alphonse's hands, the amount of Philosopher's Stone these two brothers brought this time was indeed an astronomical figure.

"Don't look at us with those weird eyes, I know what you are thinking."

Edward spread his hands and explained:

"We made these things ourselves by buying the materials we received from the orders. We are not depriving you of the alchemy materials you gave us, so don't treat us like a fool.

Since arriving at Osborne Tower, all living costs have been borne by Mr. Norman, and we have nothing to spend money on, so these three boxes are all the property of our two brothers. "

"No, that's not what I care about."

Mason shook his head and said:

"These Philosopher's Stones are reserved for you two to replace the world, right? There is still a quarter missing to achieve that level. I know that is the ideal, or obsession, that supports you two until now.

You told me when we first met, but now you have given me all the Philosopher's Stones you have saved over the years. Does this mean that you have given up on the idea of ​​returning to your hometown?

You can't be inspired by our cause to voluntarily donate these precious things, right? "

"It's because the colonel and master were called here to help resist the enemy, and they can't leave now."

Alphonse explained:

"If the world disappears, they will be our last relatives and compatriots. Anyway, my brother and I want to create a hometown for them when we change the world.

But a place with people is called home.

Without people, no matter how good the world is, it is just a house. "

"Is that why?"

Mason handed the three alchemy boxes to Brother A beside him and motioned for him to take them in and stack the Philosopher's Stones around the cosmic tuning fork. He glanced at his watch. There were still two minutes until the Speed ​​Force Matrix was activated. There are four minutes left until World Fusion enters the second phase.

There was barely enough time.

So he asked:

"Look, if I fail, this will be the last time we talk, so why not be honest, Edward, and tell me what you really think about doing this."

"Is it important?"

The blond Doudin said in a sultry voice:

"Can't I just give them to you? Do you have plenty of time? Do you want us to spend time discussing the seven methods of refining the elixir?"

"I just want to hear it. After all, we have been working together for so long, and we are definitely good friends, right?"

Mason rubbed his uncomfortable chest, grinned and said:

"If this were the last ten minutes of my life, I wouldn't want to spend it lying."

Edward had a dull face, and finally when Alphonse poked his back with his finger behind him, the tall Fullmetal Alchemist sighed.

He raised his head and looked at the dark rock wall above Attilan City and the surging water and deep-sea creatures around it. He said:

"Master just told us that people who are immersed in the past cannot create the future. This is actually not the first time she has said this. I still remember when we first escaped from our hometown and set up a stall in the Star Castle to live, she He said something similar to us.

Whether it's the Colonel, Miss Lisa, Hao Wan, or Yao Lin, they all seem to have said this.

It's not that I don't know what they mean. I just don't want to accept the fact that my hometown is impossible to return to like them. That damn place is not good. The artificial people, the monster in the bottle, the original sin, etc. are not much better than the other worlds that Al and I have traveled to, but it is my hometown after all.

It is the place where we were born.

But now, when I know that the cosmic tuning fork is destroyed and we only have ten minutes left, it seems like I have been enlightened.

They didn't give up their hometown, they didn't betray the past, they just tried to continue their lives so that the story of their hometown can be known and remembered by people in other worlds.

They have their own ideals and goals, but Al and I.

Only the two of us have been escaping reality, trying hard to go back to the past, and trying hard to bring back a meaningless thing to avoid a perhaps more cruel future. "

Edward moved his fingers.

He looked at Mason seriously and said:

"We have been avoiding our future, but we have overlooked a very important fact. We can actually shape a better future than the past according to our own ideas.

Use your own hands, without relying on alchemy and the philosopher's stone, to create a home of your own, continue your own story and life, and tell our children the legend of another world in the twilight of life.

This is what I think.

The future you promised, Mason, the era you described to us without darkness and tragedy, we want to see it with our own eyes, it's that simple. "

"You shattered your ideals to help me realize my ideals, my God, I'm about to cry."

Mason took a step back in an exaggerated tone, and said:

"Then follow up and see with your own eyes the splendor of your new ideals when they are realized. Don't say you don't have a home, Osborne Tower is your home, although it is only a wasteland now. "

"Woo woo woo"

Harley, who was watching this scene at the side, covered her eyes. She hugged Quinn, who looked disgusted, and said in a crying voice:

"Woo woo, they gave their ideals to little sweetheart, this is so touching, look at the three of them walking into the room together, it reminds me of those BL comics I've read. Damn! Mr. K won't get together with that little bean?

This is too sweet.

Full of manly passion and enthusiasm, why don't you two cry? Are you so cold-blooded? Cry! Cry for me!"

"Be normal!"

Quinn, who couldn't listen any longer, hit Harley on the head with a knife, and dragged her hair into the room angrily.

Damn it!

This idiot has lost face for both of them.

And in front of Ciri, the love rival!

As for the hunter master, she didn't notice Harley's loss of composure at all. She tightly grasped the hilt of the sword in her hand, thinking about what Edward had just said.

Isn't it the same for the hounds of the Star Society?

The lost ideals and future were found by Mason from the mud, washed clean and returned to them, so that these interstellar scums who were once immersed in plunder and greed began to look forward to the next era shaped by their own hands.

How did I fall for Mason, this little man? In the shadow?

This question that had troubled Ciri for a long time finally had an answer.

She followed Harley and strode towards the room, but in the end Ciri did not step in. She looked at the devil tattoo on her left hand, and the scene of being controlled by Mephisto at the end of the world war was still vivid in her mind.

She couldn't cause trouble for Mason at this time.

Just as she hesitated, Brother A, who was in charge of security, also came out of the house. The silent man glanced at Ciri, nodded to her, and stepped aside.

It seems that he also knows the risks he faces.

"Damn Mephisto"

The hunter held the sword of the lake lady to protect the door, standing like a door god and cursing in a low voice:

"From such a distance, can these ashes float together? Uh, damn! I was infected by the strange brain circuits of Harley and Quinn."

"It's about to start! "

Under the cosmic tuning fork, Mason put his hands together on the golden leaning tower. The giant alchemy array around him was filled with blood-colored philosopher stones, which were objects of truth that could replace a world.

Although the effectiveness of the law of truth in this world was very general, the distortion of reality that could be produced by using them all was enough to repair the damaged module of the cosmic tuning fork.

"In the name of ideals, future and hope, burn."

The captain shouted in his heart, and the moment he closed his eyes, a blood-colored light bloomed, just like a rising sun illuminating everyone's eyes.

The second stage of world fusion has officially begun!
