Chapter 376 End
At this time.
Gillan suddenly felt something.
He turned his head and looked in the direction of Andrea.
He saw that the sky over there was covered with dark clouds at some point. The clouds were spiral-shaped, and purple-white electric light flashed in the depths.
Faintly, a huge red alchemy array could be seen emerging between the clouds.
Countless spirits were circling and flying over Andrea.
Even though they were dozens of kilometers apart, Gillan seemed to be able to hear the wailing coming from there.
Rumble! !
In the distance, dark clouds were flashing and thundering, and the momentum was huge.
"I wonder how the fight between Mrs. McCulla and the 'Red Duke' went..."
Gillan murmured.
He looked aside and saw the noble girl Flamel fainted on the grass by the roadside.
The aftermath of the battle just now made her weak body unable to bear it, and she fainted directly.
Gillan had a hunch that this film was about to end.
He took two steps forward, picked up Flamel, and immediately found a direction to leave.
After a while, he carried the girl to a hillside, found a relatively flat open space, and put her down.
He stood and looked in the direction of Andrea, always paying attention to the movements over there.
At some point, the dark clouds over Andrea began to strike lightning madly, accompanied by heavy rain.
From Gilan's side, the town seemed to be covered by a layer of gray curtain, and it was not clear.
After another moment, Flamel woke up.
She was startled at first, and then sat up. When she saw the blond young man standing next to her, she finally let go of her hanging heart.
"Mr. Gilan, where are the alchemists in red clothes?"
Flamel asked.
Gilan looked straight ahead and said lightly:
"Kill them all."
"..."
Flamel opened his mouth, finally took a deep breath, and fell silent.
Only then did she realize how strong Gillan was... He killed seven terrible alchemists by himself and took her away safely.
"Thank you." Flamel whispered.
Gillan did not respond, still staring at the distance.
Flamel got up from the ground, walked to his side, and looked into the distance along his gaze. However, with her ordinary eyesight, she could only observe the dark clouds on the horizon and hear the thunder faintly, and knew nothing else.
"Is that Andrea over there?" Flamel asked.
"Yes." Gillan said calmly. "Madam is fighting with the Red Duke."
Flamel's eyes widened.
She did not ask any more questions, but stood quietly beside Gillan and looked out with him... Even though Flamel could not see anything at all, at this moment, she felt that this was the best way.
Time passed by minute by minute.
Near dusk, Gillan and Flamel suddenly heard a huge roar from Andrea's direction, and then billowing smoke rose into the sky.
Following closely, there was a clinking sound that only glass bottles would make when they collided, as if accompanied by the sound of splashing water.
A silver light suddenly broke through the dark clouds in the sky and shone obliquely into the city of Andea.
A gentle and pleasant female voice sounded in the ears of Gillan and Flamel at the same time:
"... Gillan, Flamel, I feel the call of 'Ms. Snow' and am about to leave the world and ascend, regardless of whether this trip is successful or not, or I can never come back."
"I will give you the last teaching, which is the knowledge summarized from my lifelong understanding of alchemy, about the secrets of 'decomposition' and 'reconstruction', I hope you can pass it on well."
"If there is a chance in the future, we should meet again in the 'Homeland of God'... Take care, both of you."
After speaking, a translucent parchment appeared in front of each of them, with rows of dense ancient Roman characters constructed with bright silver light.
Immediately, these words flew up, poured into the two people's eyebrows, and suddenly appeared in their minds.
Gillan browsed through this knowledge and was amazed.
This inheritance explained the "decomposition" and "reconstruction" in alchemy very thoroughly, and even the specific application methods were improved and simplified many times by Mrs. McCullagh.
Gillan was inspired by this.
But he still needs more time to study before he can use it for his own benefit.
'The value of the film "Silver Bottle" is too high...'
Gillan couldn't help but say inwardly.
The parchment in front of him then decomposed into pieces and flew away.
Flamel felt dizzy, and those profound knowledge made it difficult for her to digest for a while.
After a while.
"Mr. Gillan, did Mrs. McCullagh win? She said she was going to ascend to the 'God's Homeland'. Could it be that she went to the place where the Sichen were?"
Flamel asked in a daze.
Gillan looked into the distance, and the dark clouds over Andrea slowly dissipated, and the rain was over.
"That's probably the case." He turned his head to look at the noble girl and nodded. "Flame, I should leave too."
"Huh?!" Flame was stunned at first, then he said with sadness and reluctance: "Where is Mr. Gillan going?"
"Mrs. McCullagh has ascended, and I also plan to embark on a journey to pursue the mysteries and alchemy."
Gillan lied.
"While I am still young, I don't want to live in a small corner. I have been studying with my wife for more than half a year, and I have mastered the basics. Next, I plan to go to various places in the world to take a look and walk around. Maybe there will be new discoveries."
"In addition, you must also study and master the inheritance that the lady gave us before she left."
"Well, I know."
Lemme was unhappy and depressed.
She was silent for a while and tried to ask:
"How about you take me with you on the journey... I don't want to stay in Andea any longer."
"Sorry." Gillan shook his head and declined. "I'm not used to taking people on the road, and you're too weak."
Lemme lowered her head.
She took a deep breath and gritted her teeth and asked:
"Will we meet again in the future?"
"Yes." Gillan looked at her deeply. "If you work hard, you will eventually reach the stage of ascension... Not only will you see me again, but you will also see the lady."
"Ascension..." Leme opened her mouth.
But soon, she looked firm in her eyes, raised her little face and said to Gillan:
"I will work hard, I will!"
"Then wait and see."
Gillan chuckled.
However, at this moment, he suddenly noticed that "Colorful" had moved differently.
A burst of colorful light fell from the sky and landed on the noble girl Flamel, but she was unaware of it.
‘Huh? What’s going on? ’
Gilan was surprised.
This had never happened before when he watched a movie. He couldn’t figure out the reason for the unusual movement of “Banlan” this time, nor could he estimate what impact it would have, so he had to keep his surprise in his heart.
Ding——
Ding——
Ding——
The bell that resounded through the universe rang.
Gilan raised his eyes and looked at the sky, as if he saw through the void, and saw the “assistant scriptwriter” Ms. Hera hidden behind the scenes, sitting in the middle of the dark room, gently shaking the bell.
‘The movie really ends here. ’
He said to himself.
The next second, noise and vertical spots began to appear in the field of vision. Soon, his consciousness flickered, and Gilan found himself back to reality.
He was sitting on the floor of the bedroom, watching the movie screen projected on the screen, and the last perspective was given to Flamel Nicolas.
The girl stood on the hillside with her back to the camera, looking into the distance. The afterglow of the setting sun fell on her body, which was quite beautiful.
Jilan turned her head and looked at the wall clock. It was evening now, which was quite appropriate.
Subtitles and a list of behind-the-scenes personnel began to scroll on the screen, as well as the final thanks from the "director":
"'If you want to get, you must lose first.' I like this sentence from Ms. Xiadia, so I also give it to you in front of the screen, my friend."
Jilan looked at the thanks and chewed on the words quoted by the "director" from "Ms. Xue".
It is actually explaining the principle of "equivalent exchange", and Jilan deeply agrees with it.
Just like the mechanism of "Colorful", in the final analysis, it is also very consistent with the principle of "equivalent exchange". To become stronger, you must consume mysterious points, and the points come from the corruption of mysterious things.
The two achieved the result of "equivalent exchange" through the mysterious and unknown ability of "Colorful".
Jilan stood up and let Weiwei return to the ring. Then, he turned off the projector, put away the precious real film "Silver Bottle" and the unused mercury battery.
He took a deep breath and sat down at the table.
Gillan opened a new page of the leather notebook, took out the pen, twisted off the pen cap, and planned to take advantage of the sunset outside the window to sort out all the knowledge he had learned from Mrs. McCullagh in the film.
Of course, there are also the high-level alchemy array structures, alchemy medicine formulas, and the "decomposition and reconstruction technique" inheritance obtained at the end of the film that he studied and figured out by himself.
…
…
The deepest part of the dream sea.
A giant island reflected on the black sea.
God's hometown, Toyalan.
Endless corridors on the "mountainside".
Among the strange buildings hanging on the cliff at 90 degrees, there is a manor wrapped in green vines, and countless purple roses bloom on the gray walls.
A pretty lady with short black curly hair, wearing a noble and elegant purple evening dress, leaned on a rattan hammock with her legs crossed, holding an ancient book and reading.
Next to her, there was a cup of coffee and a stack of pancakes.
Suddenly, an invisible and intangible colorful light fell from the sky and enveloped her.
The lady was startled and closed the book.
She felt a sudden impulse, as if she had forgotten something very important and just remembered it at this moment.
The lady quickly took out a blank parchment from her body and wrote on it quickly with a feather pen.
Rustle...
Soon, she drew a very strange alchemy array that she had never seen before.
"Have I studied this alchemy array before?"
The lady murmured.
She threw the parchment out with a casual throw, and the alchemy array on it suddenly burst into golden light.
As the lady pointed her finger, the coffee cup beside her was immediately covered by the alchemy array and turned into colored glass at a speed visible to the naked eye.
Bang!
The coffee cup shattered and turned into dazzling dust, flying in front of the lady, extremely gorgeous.
Seeing this scene, it seemed as if a flash of lightning flashed through the lady's mind.
Some fragments of countless years ago were revived from the depths of memory and emerged at this moment.
On the day when the lady ascended to heaven, the blond young man took her away from the wooden house, but was besieged by seven red-robed alchemists under the "Red Duke" in the wild.
The apprentice Galken rebelled on the spot and took her hostage. It was a piece of parchment that saved her. The power of the alchemy array is just like this, it can instantly turn the human body into colored glass.
"Jilan..."
The lady's eyes regained their sparkle.
"Ghilan Iros!"
"We agreed to meet after ascending...why didn't you keep your promise?"
The lady murmured, getting down from the hammock.
She stepped barefoot on the lawn and walked straight into the luxurious main building.
After a while, he came out again.
However, she was holding a white-looking female doll in her hands. The material of the doll is unknown. Its surface is shiny and engraved with gold lines. Its appearance is also very similar to that of a lady, as if it is a product made through alchemy.
The lady opened the opening on the left chest of the doll, inserted a purple crystal into it, and said with a smile:
"From now on, you will be called 'Menes', the alter ego of my 'Miss Ether' Flamel Nicola... Go to the world to find him for me."
"His name is Gilan Iros."
…
…
Time turned and it was already the morning of the next day.
Ji Lan stayed up all night. He had just finished sorting out his knowledge of occultism and alchemy and walked downstairs.
The old butler Charles came over quickly, lowered his head and said respectfully:
"Master, you didn't have dinner yesterday, so you must be hungry. I asked the cook to prepare breakfast. Do you want to eat?"
"Okay." Jilan nodded. “Add an extra side of fried pork chops and meatballs, and a cup of coffee and sticky bark milk tea for drinks.”
"Yes, Master." Old Charles agreed.
Immediately, the butler left quickly.
After a while.
Gilan finished his meal and wiped his mouth with a napkin contentedly. He took a short rest and then stood up.
"Char, I'm going out. If anyone comes to see me, tell me I may not be back today."
"Okay, Master." The old butler responded.
Gillan nodded and strode out of the apartment.
The four bodyguards sent by the military followed closely behind, one of them served as the driver, and the other three rode in another car.
Two gray bulletproof cars, one behind the other, drove away from Morales Street and headed straight towards the Triumph Building.
More than ten minutes later.
Gillan arrives at Triumph Mansion.
Surrounded by bodyguards, he walked through the door.
The staff in the lobby on the first floor, as well as the men and women from other departments who were in a hurry, stopped and saluted Jilan after seeing him.
He respectfully called "Foreign Minister Jilan".
Of course, there are also a small number of committee members who call Gillan "sir".
Although he was removed from the "Team Leader" position, he became the head of the Second Special Operations Group (Gravediggers).
From a certain perspective, he can be regarded as the superior leader of the committee members.
Gilan took the elevator to the 70th floor and knocked on the door of the Chairman's office.
"come in."
The voice of Paracelsus came from inside.
Ji Lan pushed open the door and entered, while the bodyguards tacitly stayed outside.
"Gilan, you're here." Parra saw the person coming, so she stopped the annotation work at hand and smiled. "sit down."
Gilan nodded and sat at the curved desk.
"Teacher, I have finished reading "The Silver Vase"."
"Oh?" Parra smiled. "How was it? Did you learn anything from it?"
"I passed the test in the film and became Mrs. McCullagh's apprentice. I studied with her for more than half a year. Now I have mastered the basics of occultism and alchemy."
Gillan answered honestly.
As he spoke, he also took out the notebook he had sorted out and presented it with both hands.
Parra took it and started flipping through it.
After a while.
The white-haired old man closed his notebook and nodded happily.
"Well done, Gilan. Your mastery of alchemy is better than I thought... It seems that you are indeed quite talented in this area."
He handed the notebook back and said:
"Then in the next period of time, you will officially start to study with me."
"I'm always prepared, teacher."
Gillan Road.
Parra hummed, her expression calm.
"First of all, I think it is necessary to tell you something. Because knowledge cannot be quantified, there is no clear hierarchy among alchemists, and it is even more difficult to define the degree of knowledge of an alchemist."
"Since alchemy is a university subject, there have been very few all-powerful alchemists throughout the ages. Generally speaking, they only specialize in a certain field."
"If you have a small achievement in a certain field, you will be named 'Outstanding'. When you have a huge achievement, you will be called a 'Legend', or the so-called 'Great Alchemist'."
Gilan nodded, indicating that he understood.
"The Great Alchemist... is like the 'Mrs. Silver Vase', 'Red Duke' and 'King of the Furnace'?"
"That's right." Parra nodded. "But they were active for a very long time."
"As time goes by, those who can be called 'Great Alchemists' are mostly the leaders of the 'Midnight Rose', such as - 'Holy Sand' Ibn Hal, 'King of Steel Heart' Albert Ji Xiaomu, and 'Miss Ether' Flamel Nicolas."
When Gilan heard the last familiar name, he couldn't help but be startled.
"Miss Ether...?" He raised his eyes and asked: "Teacher, Flamel Nicolas was also the leader of the 'Midnight Rose'?"
"Yes." Pala nodded. "Several years after the end of the story of "Silver Bottle", Flamel not only embarked on the "Path of Fire Sword" and reached the height of the former "Lady Silver Bottle", but also served as the leader of "Night Rose" for a period of time."
"Finally, she ascended?!"
Gilan was quite surprised.
"Yes, Ms. Flamel ascended and became one of the transmuters under the command of "Lady Silver Bottle."
Pala said, and laughed:
"Isn't it amazing?"
