Chapter 374 Silver Bottle Seventeen

Guillen took Flamel and Galken with him and continued to bypass the enemy's siege and fled towards the other side.

Those tall and burly alchemy clay statues were quite powerful. Their bodies were quite smooth and tough. The female soldiers' long swords tried their best to slash at them, but they could only cut three-finger-wide wounds on them and spatter a few mud spots.

Even if it is under siege, the clay statue stands on the ground with its legs. With the advantages of the pouring rain and the wild environment, it can continue to draw strength to feed itself and quickly recover from its wounds.

And its simple punches and kicks can often easily smash the armor of female soldiers and beat them to death.

Therefore, even though there are only four or five clay statues, they can still have an advantage when facing enemies ten times their own.

The clanging sounds of fighting are endless.

Along with the pouring rain, the three of Jilan quickly shuttled through the forest.

Not long after, they were far away from the battlefield.

After all, the heavy rain was just a celestial phenomenon triggered remotely by Mrs. McCalla using the alchemy formation. Therefore, the area covered was not large, only a few hundred meters in radius.

After the three people escaped from the rain area, they ran some distance again.

However, due to the poor physical condition of Flamel and Garken, they ran out of breath not long after running with all their strength. In addition, he was soaked all over and shivering.

Ji Lan had no choice but to take them to hide under a big rock and take a rest.

"I...I squeezed the water off my skirt. It's so cold...and it's too heavy. It's hard to run."

At this time, the noble girl Flamel panted heavily and said to Gilan with a red face.

Ji Lan hummed and nodded.

So Flamel walked around to the other side of the big rock, and soon there was a rustling sound from the other side.

But as soon as Flamel took off her dress, she caught a glimpse of a figure from the corner of her eye, and she was so frightened that she was about to scream.

"Woo——"

As soon as Flamel's mouth opened, it was covered by a big hand.

She saw the blond young man in front of her was expressionless and made a shushing gesture towards her.

Flamel suddenly felt ashamed and angry——

She's not wearing anything right now!

"You take this parchment. There is an alchemical formation drawn on it, which contains a high-level structure that I have only recently researched."

Gilan took out a piece of parchment from his body, stuffed it into Flamel's hand, and said in a deep voice.

"If you are in danger, it can save your life."

"You... why do you want this time..."

Flamel lowered his voice and his tone was slightly trembling.

Ji Lan just looked at her meaningfully without explaining.

Flamel did not know that Galken had betrayed his wife. He took this opportunity to hand the parchment to the noble girl, just in case.

As for whether it’s appropriate or not…

Gillan couldn't care less.

After he handed the parchment into Flamel's hands, he turned and left.

Back on the other side of the big rock, Galken hesitated and asked:

"Brother Jilan, you just..."

Ji Lan glanced at the young man and said calmly:

"Don't ask what you shouldn't ask."

"Sorry." Galken quickly lowered his head.

Soon, Flamel wringed out her skirt, put on her clothes again and walked back.

But her cheeks were still red, and her eyes were staring straight at Gilan, with a hint of shame and anger.

"Jilan, you..."

"Now that we've packed up, let's leave quickly...the longer we stay, the greater the chance of being found by the enemy."

Gilan ignored the noble girl's interrogation, made a gesture and stepped forward.

"Huh!" Tulumei was startled, and then stamped her foot angrily.

Due to the seriousness of the situation, she and Galken had no choice but to keep up with Gilan.

The three of them continued running in the suburbs.

During this process, Gillan noticed that another search team of dozens of people appeared a few hundred meters away.

But a heavy rain came again, stopping the group of people in place. Ji Lan and his party successfully crossed the siege and headed towards the plain in the distance.

"Mrs. McCullagh has been helping us..."

Flamel looked at the army submerged in the heavy rain and was stunned.

"Why doesn't she leave with us?"

"Madam plans to personally take action to stop the Red Duke's plan to refine the philosopher's stone."

Jilan said calmly.

Flamel and Galken were both shocked.

"Will Madam win?" Flamel asked uneasily.

Although she has confidence in her teacher, the "Red Duke" is also one of the three major alchemists in the contemporary era. She really doesn't know the outcome of the fight between the two sides.

"We will win." Gillan responded briefly.

He doesn't know how to predict, but since his wife will ascend in the future, she will definitely not die in this battle.

Hearing this, Flamel's originally anxious mood calmed down inexplicably.

I don’t know if it’s because of the six months of getting along with her, but Gilan has always brought her reliability and peace of mind.

More than twenty minutes later.

The three of them ran to a dirt road intersection in the countryside and stopped.

This place is far away from the wooden house and dozens of kilometers away from Andrea, so it should be relatively safe.

But just when Flamel was about to sit on the ground and rest, Gilan suddenly noticed something, narrowed his eyes, turned around and said:

"Have you been waiting here for a long time?"

"?!" Lemei was stunned, as if he didn't know what Gilan meant by this.

Almost the next second.

A group of people walked out from behind the trees around the intersection.

There were seven of them, four men and three women, all wearing red robes and cloaks, and carrying long wooden staffs in their hands.

"He is worthy of being the most talented among Mrs. McCalla's apprentices, and his perception is so sharp."

A middle-aged woman at the head smiled.

Her right eye was blind for some reason and was replaced with a sapphire-shaped alchemical eyeball, which looked quite terrifying.

The appearance of this group of strange men in red robes startled Flamel. The three of them had gone through many twists and turns, and finally managed to get this far, but they didn't expect that the enemy had a plan and ambush here in advance.

Relying on the "Guidance Tip" ability of the "Player" essence, Gillan learned that these seven people were all alchemists under the "Red Duke".

The woman in the lead is a fourth-level Kusei, and the rest are all third-level spiritual mystics.

"Does the 'Red Duke' hate Madam so much?"

Ji Lan asked with calm eyes.

"So many people were sent to surround and kill her, even our three apprentices were not spared."

"Ms. McCalla Melasquez is ignorant of current affairs and is the biggest obstacle to Lord Boral's plan."

The leading woman in red robe said indifferently.

"My lord has ordered us not to cause any further trouble, and you three will naturally die!"

Just as she was talking, the woman suddenly shouted:

"You haven't taken action yet? What are you waiting for?!"

Just when Flamel was in shock, he saw Galken's expression change. He suddenly raised his hand and threw a small object towards the blond young man who had his back turned to him.

call out--

"Mr. Gillan, be careful!!"

Flamel's pupils shrank and she exclaimed loudly.

However, Jilan did not look back, raised his hand to explore, and accurately caught the flying black shadow in his palm like an owl hunting prey.

"Squeak!"

Just hear a piercing scream coming from his hand.

It was actually a ball that looked like an octopus with eight soft and slender tentacles, but was actually a furry black spider!

Its four hook-shaped mouthparts constantly open and close, making sharp screams.

"Garken! You...?!"

Flamel asked with a look of disbelief.

But the next second, Galken rushed forward with a gloomy face, grabbed the noble girl's neck, and held her in his arms.

In an instant, Garken's entire right arm turned into seven or eight soft but black-haired tentacles, tightly wrapped around Flamel's neck.

The girl felt the furry touch on her neck and suddenly felt a chill.

She resisted the feeling of suffocation and said with difficulty:

"Gal... Galken! You actually studied 'Human Alchemy' privately, transformed your own body... and betrayed my wife!"

"You treacherous villain!"

"Villain?" Galken's expression twisted and he said viciously: "It's better to be a villain than to be your dog!"

"Lemay Nicholas! Ever since I became an apprentice, I have been driven, humiliated and oppressed by you every day... We are obviously all Madam's apprentices, why should we be humbler than you?!"

"Why?! Just because you are a noble and I am just a third-class commoner?!"

At this moment, Galken's resentment that had been accumulated for a long time seemed to be finally released. He blushed and shouted wildly:

"ridiculous!"

"Why can you learn more knowledge, but I can only learn some basic, useless things!"

"I'm not willing to give in! I don't want to live like this anymore! I want power, a higher identity and status, and I want to trample those of you who think you are superior like ants under my feet!"

Hearing this, Le Mei's face turned blue and white.

She felt Galken's anger, and she couldn't help but feel a little guilty, secretly wondering if she had gone too far before.

But she was quickly angered by the other person's words and attitude.

"Betrayal is betrayal..."

Flamel blushed, but still tried her best.

"You, you are not worthy to be my lady's apprentice!"

"I do not care!"

Galken's eyes were crazy.

He raised his other hand, which soon transformed into a black-furred tentacle.

"See! This is the real power! The alchemy formations I learned from Madam are all useless!"

As he spoke, he looked at the blond young man and smiled sinisterly:

"As a commoner, you also look down on me... I know it, I know it. Your words and deeds betray you, I can feel that you look down on me!"

"Your talent is indeed better than mine, and you are a true genius... But a dead genius is nothing!"

After saying that, Garken screamed.

"ha--"

As he screamed, the strange, slippery spider in Gillan's hand danced its tentacles and burrowed into the skin of his palm.

"Hahaha!" Galken laughed wildly in triumph. "Gilan Iros, you are parasitized by the alchemy creature I researched. Just wait for death!"

The seven men and women in red robes on the other side also smiled. The scene in front of them made them find it interesting.

But Jilan didn't show any signs of panic, he just looked calmly at his hands and the bulge that kept crawling under his skin.

"I gave you a chance, Garken."

Ji Lan shook his head and said.

"But you still made the stupidest choice... On the other hand, you have been studying something for more than half a year, which really disappoints me."

"You..." Galken's face changed slightly.
