Chapter 384: Explosive Flames
The name of this teenager is "Envy", he is a homunculus created by his Father.
The father separated his various emotions and used these emotions and the Philosopher's Stones to create seven separate beings.
The first one is Lust, a pretty young girl who is over 200 years old.
The second is a Glutton, a young fat man, over 100 years old.
The third is Envy, a young man over 100 years old.
Fourth — Greed, adult male, over 100 years old.
The fifth is Laziness, a strong man, over 100 years old.
The sixth is Proud, looks like a child, he is 343 years old.
Seventh-Wrath, Ruler and Supreme Commander of Amestris, 60 years old.
Out of the seven homunculi, only Anger was able to age, which allowed him to integrate into human society without any problems. The Philosopher's Stone inside him contains only one of his souls. Because of this, Wrath is not immortal and does not have the regenerative abilities that his siblings have. His incredible agility, strength, and stamina are also just the result of his hard training..
If Su Xiao was forced to fight Anger one-on-one, he wasn't sure if he could beat him. Apart from having a very strong body, he was a very skilled swordsman and had an Ouroboros mark on his left eye.
Even so, Su Xiao didn't mind fighting him. Fighting a strong opponent has always been fun and exciting.
As for the other homunculi, Su Xiao was confident of winning if he encountered them.
The most powerful homunculus is Anger. The second was Pride, and the third was Gluttony.
As for the others, Su Xiao could easily blow them up, and if he didn't have any bombs on hand, he would just cut them into pieces.
Even though they had powerful regeneration, their energy reserves would eventually run out.
Envy stopped the car at the side of the road, and in the distance, at the end of the street, the sounds of a fight could be heard.
— Your pocket watch, " Su Xiao threw the silver pocket watch enviously. As soon as they were in his hands, he saw Paradise's notification.
[You've joined the homunculus camp.
Attitude: Cold (0/200).]
After seeing this notification, Su Xiao quickly began to adjust his plan.
Infiltrating their base will be very difficult, given their current level of relations.
— Envy tossed one philosopher's stone the size of a grain of rice into Su Xiao's hands.
It was red, its surface was smooth, and it weighed almost nothing.
— It's too small, " Su Xiao said and checked the characteristics of this stone at the same time.
[Philosopher's Stone (Has no confirmation of Paradise).
Quality: Blue (Depends on the size).
Type: Consumable.
Effect: Can replace most of the existing materials, the amount of remaining energy — 30/30.
Rating: 70.
Description: Rough soul processing resulted in poor efficiency and poor stability.]
— It will be enough for this battle. After you win, find me and don't forget to bring your body with you, I'll give you a better stone.".
Su Xiao watched the car leave for a long time. There was a large philosopher's stone in Envy's body, and it would be very pleasant to receive such a stone.
Su Xiao wasn't going to look for methods to create these stones — he only wanted to use them, not create them.
A scream suddenly rang out nearby. Su Xiao turned around and walked towards the source of that scream.
*Boom!*
Quickly dodging the ice wall, Su Xiao looked up.
— It looks like you are my target, " Su Xiao looked at the tall, ponytailed man in a blue military uniform on top of this ice wall.
He is Isaac MacDougal, an ice alchemist and an experienced soldier who has been through more than one war.
When he saw Su Xiao, his pupils narrowed. "Explosive flame, the military will stop at nothing and kill you for what you did.
Su Xiao flipped the philosopher's Stone to his left hand, and a bomb began to form on his right hand.
Normally, it would have taken 80 mana points to create the ultimate bomb, but this time, he only had to spend it 30.
The alchemy bomb quickly turned into a spear and darted forward, but Isaac immediately jumped down from the ice wall.
*BOOM!*
The bomb exploded and sent a huge amount of dust flying into the air.
Nearby, the main character, Edward and his younger brother Alphonse witnessed an explosion.
— Who is this person? The alchemist? Edward and his brother looked at each other, but they didn't go near the explosion site because it was too dangerous.
The fire alchemist, Roy Mustang, took a step forward and a look of disgust appeared on his face. "Was he released?" It's impossible, damn it, what are the military thinking, they have water in their heads instead of brains? Shaking his head, Roy sighed.
— Don't get involved, wait for the battle to end.
— But...
Suddenly, there was an explosion and a hand flew right in front of the two brothers.
*BOOM-BOOM-BOOM...*
The city seemed to have turned into a barrel of gunpowder, for the streets and houses were constantly being blown to pieces.
Fortunately, ordinary people from nearby homes were evacuated an hour ago.
Su Xiao stood in the middle of the steam and saw nothing with his own eyes.
— You're a state alchemist like me, so haven't you seen what this country has done?
Isaac revealed many secrets, but he didn't know who was pulling the strings behind the scenes. He came to this city to kill the ruler and supreme commander Amestris, the homunculus of Wrath.
Naturally, this was a very stupid idea.
Su Xiao quickly jumped out of the steam in the direction of his voice.
Isaac was standing in the middle of the alley. One of his arms was missing, and his body was covered in blood.
— You won't be able to use your bombs at this close range, you madman, " Isaac said, and took the blood icicle in his hand.
Isaac could freeze and boil liquids.
— Yes, you're right.
There was no more energy left in the Philosopher's Stone, so Su Xiao couldn't use it now.
Suddenly a Dragon Flash appeared in his hand and he looked at Isaac.
— A sword? Do you want to fight me in close combat? You underestimate me too much! Isaac grabbed the icicle more comfortably and rushed towards Su Xiao.
When the bright glare of the sword flashed in the alley, Isaac's body was already on the ground.
— This... this... Isaac couldn't believe what he was seeing. He thought that Su Xiao only knew how to create bombs.
[You killed Isaac.
Isaac is a regular character, you have gained 1.2% of the World Source and currently have 1.2% of the World Source.]
[Your Soul Eater talent has been activated, and your mana pool has been increased by 11 points.
The maximum amount of mana at the moment is 914 points.]
Every time Su Xiao increased his maximum amount of mana, his health would also increase.
Unfortunately, Isaac didn't drop the treasure chest, but considering Su Xiao's luck without the lighter effect, it was normal.
After leaving the alley, Su Xiao saw a few people.
They were the main characters in this story.
Edward, Alphonse, and Roy Mustang stared at Su Xiao intently.
— Bubtney, come out.
Just like before, Su Xiao had no idea where this huge dog was hiding this time.
In a nearby cattle circle, Bubtny was completely mixed in with the herd, even occasionally lowering his head and grazing the grass.
Hearing Su Xiao's voice, Bubtney stepped out of his image and suddenly felt a gaze on him.
One of the cows was staring intently at Bubtny and it made Bubtny's fur stand on end.
