"Have all the country's top leaders become twisted? I suddenly remembered the Frozen Alchemist who appeared in the first episode. It seems that he wanted to destroy the capital just because he knew the truth!"
"So what is the truth? Why did these guys do these things?"
"Compared to these, I can't accept the fact that Lieutenant Colonel Hughes is dead. His wife and children must be very sad."
"Life and death are determined by fate, and some endings are inevitable."
"It's too cruel."
"… "
For a moment, the audience couldn't help but talk about it.
Faced with the sudden blow from "Fullmetal Alchemist", many people were not mentally prepared, and at this moment they all felt an indescribable emotion.
Chapter 603: New Year's Eve ends!
Chapter 603
Soon, under everyone's nervous gaze, the final plot of this episode of "Fullmetal Alchemist" began.
After Seuss's death, Roy used his authority to investigate Seuss's situation. He went to the library where Seuss had been before his death and checked the situation at that time.
After investigations from all parties, he roughly restored the state of Hughes before his death, and realized that Hughes might have discovered something, which led to his murder.
So Roy found Armstrong, hoping that he could continue the investigation in Central City.
However, Armstrong refused the request to investigate the matter and said that even though the murderer of Hughes had been identified, the investigation could not continue.
Roy immediately realized something, and took the initiative to let Major Armstrong leave amid the confusion on the face of Lieutenant Lisa.
Before leaving, Major Armstrong suddenly mentioned the Edward brothers, saying that the two brothers were in Central City two days ago, and after they left, Lieutenant Colonel Hughes met with an accident.
Hearing this, Roy realized something instantly.
After all, Major Armstrong revealed the key clues almost calmly, and the military leaders forbade the investigation of this incident. The Philosopher's Stone that the Edward brothers were looking for was suspected to be related to it...
Finally, Colonel Roy made up his mind to catch the murderer of Hughes who was hiding in the high-ranking military officials!
At this point, the tenth episode of "Fullmetal Alchemist" officially ends.
…
"Colonel Roy has discovered the problem, but the problem is, he is only a colonel. How can he fight against someone who is hidden in the upper echelons of the military and may even be related to the president?"
"I think the key to breaking the impasse lies in the Edward brothers. The Philosopher's Stone that these two are looking for is undoubtedly related to the conspiracy that affects the entire country. I'm afraid the rest of the story will also revolve around the Philosopher's Stone."
“The Philosopher’s Stone, national conspiracy, national alchemist, Ishval survivors, Scar who killed the national alchemist… So many special people have appeared without us noticing, and there will definitely be more exciting stories to come!”
"But I think the chances of winning are still slim. After all, the enemy is a country itself. The only strong person on the protagonist's side is Colonel Roy who is in the military. I don't see any hope at all."
"Let's see what happens next. If the protagonists can find clues to a conspiracy like the Philosopher's Stone and make it public, more people will come to help them!"
“I’m looking forward to it more and more!”
"… "
The audience was having heated discussions and was looking forward to more exciting stories to be released.
Unfortunately, however, tonight's five-episode broadcast has come to an end. The five episodes that Du Lin worked so hard to produce have come to an end after just one night of broadcasting.
After all, a single creator is still unable to satisfy a large audience group, and Du Lin has long hoped that more creators in this world would join him.
However, many things have to go through stages of development. Television and movies have only been around for a year and a half, and the audiences in this world have only just adapted to them.
In this situation, even talented and capable creators are still in the exploratory stage and it is impossible for them to join the story creation camp so quickly.
This also means that when there is no story to watch, the audience will complain about Du Lin from time to time, and they obviously wish he could make movies and TV 24 hours a day.
…
Imperial Capital Prison.
After watching TV, the two undead kings obediently left the bodies of the two jailers and returned to their respective prisons.
They were also very surprised by the plot of "Fullmetal Alchemist". The information revealed by Zeus before his death made them understand many things that they had not understood before, and also realized some secrets hidden deeper in the plot.
Of course, since the jailers had resumed their patrols after finishing watching TV, they had to give up communicating for the time being and planned to discuss the plot of the story later.
…
In a tavern in the eastern part of the empire.
After watching the plot on TV and knowing that there would be no more content, the audience immediately stood up with regret.
Although many people are still reluctant to leave, because today's five episodes are broadcast in a row and too much time has passed, many people have to hurry back home.
At the same time, the two goddesses started their respective work again. While cleaning up the messy scene, they also discussed the story just now.
"Hughes is dead. Was he killed because he discovered something?"
Dragon God Dona asked this question.
The forest god Ezio said calmly:
"There is no doubt that he saw through various intelligence reports the conspiracy behind the scenes. Of course, the clues given by the TV are still too few, and we, the audience, still cannot analyze the specific situation."
"Tsk, it's interrupted here, this is too uncomfortable! Add to that the "Fate/stay night Heaven's Feel" during the day, I won't be able to get a good night's sleep today!"
"Why would a god like you sleep?"
"Ah, I'm just speaking for those people over there."
"… "
The conversation between the two gods went on like this, and it was obvious that the gods had almost infinite time, so they never cared whether the waiting time was long.
After all, no matter how long it is, compared with the infinite time spent by the gods themselves, it is just a drop in the ocean.
At the same time, the other audience members who left were indeed as painful as Donna said.
Two movies in a row were interrupted at critical moments. I'm afraid I won't be able to sleep well tonight.
Meanwhile, at the Imperial Academy of Magic.
After the heated discussion, the magicians returned to the pressure of life again.
Many people originally hoped to learn the knowledge of magical alchemy by watching "Fullmetal Alchemist", but the reality is always cruel. Reading the story will not bring any real improvement except for the sense of refreshment and some marginal knowledge.
If you want to learn truly useful knowledge, you must always read those damn evil textbooks.
However, most magicians have already experienced the pain of flipping through textbooks on alchemy for several months, and now they are hesitant just by thinking about the words in the book.
In the end, all the magicians instinctively wailed and cursed Durin again from the bottom of their hearts!
Chapter 604: Promoted to the Sixth-Level Great Sage!
Chapter 604
New Year's Eve officially ended and the empire ushered in a new year.
Du Lin opened his eyes early in the morning and found himself lying on the sofa.
He seemed to have fallen asleep here last night. At the same time, Wen Li was leaning on his shoulder, and the girl's profile looked very peaceful.
For a moment, Du Lin was stunned and he also recalled what happened last night.
After watching TV with Wen Li, he told her about various things that had happened during that period, including the various situations he encountered when filming the movie and his various experiences traveling to various places on the mainland. These made the girl very curious.
As they were talking, Durin found that Wen Li had fallen asleep leaning on his shoulder. He then began to meditate alone and fell into a deep sleep without knowing when.
"Hmm..."
It seemed that Du Lin's movement woke the other person up. Wen Li's slender eyelashes slightly raised, and her big eyes slowly opened with a hint of confusion.
"Hey, Winry, how did you sleep?"
Hearing Du Lin's words, the girl was stunned for a moment, and then the golden hair on her head rippled as if its hair had exploded.
Then, she found herself leaning on Du Lin and jumped up from the sofa.
"Lord Edward, I... am so sorry!"
For a moment, Du Lin was slightly stunned by the other party's panic.
Only then did he realize that due to the master-servant relationship that had continued for so many years, Wen Li's attitude towards him had always been very low.
Obviously, Du Lin himself never regarded Winry as a servant, but more as a family member, and the person with the deepest connection to him in this world.
After all, ever since he came into this world, Winry had always been by his side, supporting and encouraging him no matter what happened.
Thinking of this, Du Lin did not take over Wen Li's words, but just said calmly:
"It's already a new year. Al must be in the army again. He won't come back. If it were me in the past, I would probably bury myself in my own business and not care about anything about this family."
"Master Edward, what are you talking about?"
"I am the patriarch of this family, but I don't know what it's like to manage such a big castle."
"Lord Edward??"
Facing Wen Li's increasingly confused look, Du Lin smiled and said:
"Thank you so much for all these years, Wen Li. If it weren't for you, I probably wouldn't be able to make it this far."
"… "
Hearing Durin's sudden words, Wen Li was slightly stunned. A trace of surprise appeared on the maid's face, and then some tears appeared in the corners of her eyes.
Noticing that she was crying, the girl immediately turned around, shook her unkempt hair, and said:
"After all, Lord Edward is a useless man who knows nothing except magic. I have to take good care of you on behalf of others."
"Yeah, that's why I thank you. It's great to have you here."
"… "
Du Lin's words made Wen Li fall into complete silence. The girl wiped the tears from her face, turned around, and said with a smile on her flushed face:
"I also think it's great to be able to be with Lord Edward."
After Wen Li said this, she turned and left, and began her work that was like the past half, day after day.
Seeing the other person's back, Du Lin didn't say much. After all, he knew very well that some things needed to be done little by little and could not be changed all at once.
Of course, this is just a general thing...
Things like magic are never reasonable and happen overnight.
"What the hell is going on?!"
All of a sudden, when Du Lin stood up instinctively, he suddenly felt a sense of refreshment and relaxation that he had never felt before.
The world in all directions seemed to have changed color at this moment, and the vision itself became countless times wider than before!
"Ah, this, am I the legendary protagonist template, and can I level up even after sleeping?"
Yes, if Du Lin was not mistaken, he had now officially crossed the threshold that an ordinary magician would never be able to cross in several lifetimes.
In just one night, he officially crossed the sixth level and entered the pinnacle of magic!
In disbelief, after discovering that he had been upgraded, Du Lin immediately went to the Imperial Magic Academy and rushed into the Mage's Tower.
When students on the street saw him, they thought they were hallucinating because they hadn't slept all night, and they saw this damn guy who they had been thinking about day and night.
After all, as the founder of magical alchemy, Durin's name appears frequently in the basics of magical alchemy. When students are preparing for the exam, they naturally recite this damn name while cursing it.
However, after noticing Durin's speed, they soon realized that this was not an illusion, but a real person.
In an instant, the news spread throughout the entire Imperial Magic Academy.
All the magicians who were deeply troubled by magical alchemy ran out one by one and surrounded the bottom of the Mage's Tower. They obviously wanted to drag out Durin, who caused all this, and beat him up immediately!
At the same time, after entering the Mage's Tower, Du Lin walked up to the upper floors without looking back. He did not use any other spells, and just walked step by step to a room at the top.
“Crack!”
As he took a step forward, the entire room suddenly changed shape, and a huge repulsive force began to push outward, as if to throw Du Lin out.
However, this force that Durin had never been able to resist in the past was not so unbearable at this moment. Instead, it was like cotton. The more he squeezed, the easier it was to push in.
Gradually, the moment Durin took this step forward, a tremendous force completely swept across the entire Mage Tower. An energy that seemed to be declaring something immediately swept across and spread to every corner of the Imperial Magic Academy.
At that moment, no matter it was the magicians who surrounded the Mage's Tower and wanted to beat Durin up, or the lecturer-level magicians who were resting or doing experiments, or even the great sages who were inside the Mage's Tower, all realized an astonishing news.
