Almighty Alchemist

When Crispin Boland said the name Dark Blade, Xiu Yi was really surprised.

Every world has its own legend.

In the long river of history, legends use a special way to record the past years, and gradually deform over time, full of legend.

Among all the legends about Fengming Continent that Xiuyi has heard, there is a legend that is quite famous.

That is the legend about the Dark Blade.

It is no longer possible to verify the origin of the Dark Blade, but every time the Dark Blade appears, it must be accompanied by bloody killings and endless legends.

The first appearance of the blade of darkness was about a thousand years ago when a warrior named Bramall appeared on the Fengming Continent and used the blade of darkness to create a period of horrible bloody years.

During the ten-year battle, the warrior Bramall used the Dark Blade to kill at least 3,000 warriors, creating one of the top ten records of warrior killings since the birth of human magic history.

Bramall's actions aroused the wrath of the countries on the mainland, and they encircled and suppressed them one after another. After a series of bloody battles, the brave and invincible Bramall finally fell, and his Dark Blade disappeared.

After two hundred years, the Dark Blade reappeared.

This time, it was in the hands of a mage.

The mage used it to create even more terrifying carnage—in three years, seven thousand people died at the hands of this evil mage, half of them fell at the edge of the dark blade.

In the eight hundred years since then, the Blade of Darkness has appeared a total of three times, and every time it appears, it must be accompanied by crazy slaughter. The Dark Blade eventually replaced its former master and became synonymous with blood and terror.

People began to call it the No. 1 Fierce Soldier, because almost everyone holding the Blade of Darkness was a crazy and bloodthirsty existence.

As for the Dark Blade itself, what kind of magical power does it have, and why everyone who possesses it is so powerful and terrifying, but no one can tell.

People only know one thing: it is indestructible!

That's more than enough for a weapon.

Yes, this is the characteristic of the blade of darkness. In the legend, there has never been a blade of darkness that can continuously cut weapons, shields that cannot be pierced, or shields that cannot be broken. No one can block the Dark Blade. Facing this terrifying weapon, everyone will tremble from the bottom of their hearts just hearing the name.

But now, what Bolan spit out from his mouth is the name Blade of Darkness.

This made Xiu Yi unable to fail to be shocked.

In any case, he never imagined that what Abraham Maritt had been pursuing all along would be this murder weapon.

At that moment, Boland looked at Xiu Yi and showed a confident smile: You heard it right, it is the Dark Blade. My condition remains the same, as long as you help me kill Marit with your own hands, I am willing to be loyal to you forever. If you want it, I can tell you where it is right now.

—————————————

Hidden Valley.

Xiu Yi fell into deep thinking.

He had never thought about a problem for so long.

As the sky was getting darker, even Bolan, who had been waiting patiently, gradually became impatient.

Finally, Huey spoke.

I have to admit that the conditions you offered earlier are indeed shockingly large. Xiuyi carefully worded her words and said in a slow tone: But unfortunately, I'm afraid I have to reject your proposal.

Why? Boland almost jumped up.

No one has ever been able to resist the temptation of the Dark Blade. This weapon is so powerful and fierce that even if it falls into the hands of ordinary people, it can make the strong tremble. For it, Boland suffered so much, and for it, Maritt did everything he could.

But now, Xiu Yi said that he was not interested.

Yes, I'm not interested. Unfortunately, Mr. Bolan, I'm afraid my thoughts are very different from yours on this issue. I believe that weapons are weapons, no matter how powerful a weapon is, it should be controlled by people. The real strong can only be people, not weapons. From the legend of the Dark Blade, it is undoubtedly a magic weapon that can affect people's mind. It is so powerful that although it can improve people's combat effectiveness, it can also make people fall into madness, and that is absolutely unacceptable to me. .For me, the reason why I can live to this day is not because I have great strength, but because I am always awake. If there is one thing that can give me great strength, but make me lose control of myself, then such strength is nothing more than a puppet. Unfortunately, I can make a puppet, but I will not make myself a puppet.”

Weapons are for people, not for people to serve them.

The reason why I had to think about it for such a long time just now was not because I didn't understand its value, but because I was overcoming the greedy desire in my heart. To be honest, it was not easy, but luckily I did it.

Xiu Yi's answer made Bolan fall into a state of trance.

What he said is absolutely right, it is indeed a super magic weapon that can make people lose their minds and fall into madness.

Ten years ago, when Boland got this magic weapon from Malette's nephew, he immediately realized this problem.

This magic weapon has a peculiar power, which can greatly increase the strength of the owner, and at the same time make people lose their minds and ignite desire in their hearts, just like the lion king Haley who was caught in the burning desire.

The reason why Malette's nephew raped his fiancée may have something to do with it.

Fortunately, he was already a senior warrior at that time, relying on his deep love for his fiancée and his own strong qualities, he suppressed the invasion of his soul by the magic weapon and hid it.

However, even so, when he held the magic weapon in his hand, the continuous sense of power coming from the blade of darkness still made him feel extremely satisfied.

Shortly after that, he successfully broke through to become a Sky Warrior. That was what the residual power of the Dark Blade in his body helped him achieve, but it was also this residual power that made the ferocious, ferocious, wild tiger known to everyone in Spark Prison.

Over the years, he has gradually digested this part of his remaining power, his personality has become more and more stable, and he is no longer as fierce as before, but the reputation of the wild tiger still makes all the prisoners fear.

Who would have thought that all of this was actually because of the blade of darkness?

Then, Xiu Yi, what price will I pay to help me? That's all I have. Unable to arouse Xiu Yi's interest with the Dark Blade, Bolan also began to panic.

After thinking deeply for a while, Xiu said, I'm not interested in the Dark Blade, but obviously, I don't want such a weapon to fall into the hands of others. So Mr. Boland, if you want to achieve your long-cherished wish, then I need you to make greater commitment and sacrifice.

What promises and sacrifices?

Xiu Yi looked at him with pity: It's a sacrifice beyond your imagination.

Tell me! As long as I can kill Marit, I can do anything, even if it's my life! Bolan yelled.

Xiu Yi nodded: Yes, I just need your life, your will, and all of you! If you agree to my conditions, then there will be no more Crispin Boland in this world, and beside me, there will be an extra dog, a slave, a real puppet of flesh and blood, a killing machine that only knows how to obey orders, and a terrifying mad king...

Bo Lan stared blankly at Xiu Yi, the blond boy stood in front of him, speaking the most vicious curse in the world with the most gentle words.

I think you understand right? It's not just a payment, but also the price you have to pay if you want to be better than before. Only in this way can I give you what you want. Think about it carefully. On this issue, neither you nor I have the right to choose. Because only in this way can we achieve the strength standard you need...It is far from being as simple as adding an arm and two legs to you.

Said that Xiu Yiyang left, leaving Bolan alone.

In life, there are always too many complicated and difficult choices.

People can sometimes give up everything for revenge.

As it was for Huey, it was also true for Crispin Boland.

So when dawn came, Bolan stood in front of Xiu Yi and said the phrase I accept in a light tone, Xiu Yi was not even surprised at all.

He looked at Bolan and said, Are you sure you think clearly? Once I do that to you, it will never be changed. You will lose a lot of abilities, including that you will not be able to speak normally from now on, and it will be difficult to think independently from now on. From then on, you will not be able to see people with your true colors.

It doesn't sound much better than being in prison.

Well then, I can transform you. It will take about ten days to complete. During this period, what you need to endure is unimaginable pain for humans.

No matter what kind of pain, I have endured too much.

Bolan's voice was full of determination.

Then... say goodbye to your brothers. From now on, they will never see the Wild Tiger again. Xiu Yi sighed.

Bolan's eyes darkened.

Huey had one more thing to do before transforming it for Boland.

—————————

In the valley lab, Haley the Lion King is lying in the medicine pool.

This guy was so big that the medicine pool could only put his body down, but his two thick thighs were placed outside the pool.

The combination of berserk power and vindictiveness tortured this big man to the brink of death. Without Xiu Yi's timely rescue, he would have died long ago.

Even so, Hailey would need many days to recover from lying in the pool of medicine that Xiuyi had prepared for him.

After carefully inspecting his physical condition, Xiu Yi helped him up from the pool.

You look better, he said.

The big man looked a little dull, stared at him for a while, then lowered his head and said softly, How is Spark Prison?

Destroyed.

That's fine, it's a place of evil, and it's fine to destroy it, Haley murmured.

After thinking about it, he asked Xiu Yi again: Is everyone dead?

Only Gale is alive.

That guy is not easy to deal with.

No more difficult to deal with than the whole empire.

Haley nodded blankly.

Why did you save me? Even if I don't know alchemy, I can tell that these medicines must be very expensive.

It's very expensive, enough to pay your salary for ten years. Huey didn't answer his question.

My salary is not as high as you think. Haley grinned: The Empire of Lance pays me 800 Kingwitts every year.

It's really low, so why do you still do it?

This is the price of Xiduo. In the Lance Empire, the food exchanged for ten Golden Witts can feed a family for a long time. In Xiduo, what is needed is not money, but food, water, and various supplies.

Huey nodded in understanding.

Are you hungry? he asked.

Enough to swallow a bear, Haley replied.

Xiu Yi smiled and stood up: I'll get you something to eat.

He turned and left.

Hey! Hailey yelled from behind, Can I get out of this ghost pool? The smell of medicine is too much for me.

Xiuyi thought for a while and nodded: No problem, what you need now is to recuperate.

After a while, Xiu Yi came back with the prepared food.

The aroma whetted Hailey's appetite.

He ate it without hesitation.

Your workmanship is good, Haley commented.

On Purgatory Island, in order to learn battle qi from a sky warrior, I spent a lot of energy researching and making meals.

Lancelot?

So you know him?

Secrets are becoming less and less secrets. More and more people know about Purgatory Island. I heard that the Frank Empire has also heard about this matter. They are trying to protest to the Church of the Holy Spirit, hoping that the Pope can intervene in this matter.

is that useful?

That depends on the situation. Haley replied: The church has two kinds of energy. One is the appeal to the general public. They represent justice, kindness, and axiom. Of course, there is also a very important second point. The church has sufficient military power.

It looks like they're besieged, Huey said.

What? Haley didn't understand the meaning of this sentence.

It's nothing. Xiu Yi smiled: It means that the Reims Empire is in a politically passive situation, is that right?

That's right, and all of this is because of you, Hugh Igles.

That's why you didn't do anything to me after waking up, but ate the meals I cooked and chatted with me?

The correct reason is that although your way of doing things is despicable, you did defeat me with your own strength. As a samurai, you lose if you lose, and you don't need to find reasons for yourself. Spark Prison no longer exists, and I have done my best for this country. There is no need to blame others for things other than the mission. This is the code of conduct of Xido people. Those who lose quit the battle. As long as they are alive, they can start all over again.

Interesting guidelines.

It has to be so, we grow up in the battle, we have to think about how to survive, not how to hate.

This is the characteristic of the Xido people, they are mercenaries, they are loyal to their duties in battle, but they do not mix personal emotions. Now that Spark Prison has been destroyed, regardless of victory or defeat, Haley has done his work with all his heart. He has no shame for the Lance Empire and has no hatred for Huey.

Fighting is fighting. When fighting, strive to win with all your strength, and then maintain an indifferent attitude regardless of victory or defeat.

Unfortunately, there are many people who can understand this point, but very few people can do it.

Because of this reason, Haley was grateful for Xiu Yi's rescue.

Especially after he discovered that the grudge and violent power in his body had merged to a certain extent, this surprise was even more conceivable.

A new power is being born in his body.

Although still weak, Haley could already sense the surging nature of that power.

You haven't answered me yet, why did you save me? Haley said while eating.

Two reasons. One is that I like your temper and character, and appreciate your fighting style. I hope you can work for me.

Not surprised at all, Haley replied.

The other reason is to see what's going on in your body. When battle qi is combined with violent power, the new power generated in your body is something I've never seen before. Can you tell me how it makes you feel? Xiuyi asked.

It's a wonderful feeling. Hailey replied: You know that fighting spirit becomes materialized only when it reaches a certain level. Only at that time, we have the ability to truly feel its existence. But after the new power is formed in my body, although it is very weak, I can easily control it. It is like an extra invisible arm that I have, and I can even use it freely.

As he spoke, Hailey raised his right hand and made a casual move, and a test tube in the distance rose out of thin air.

Xiu Yi stared blankly.

My current power can only go so far. It is completely different from the power I used to have. It cannot be described in words, but it is more controllable. But for the time being, I don't know how to use it in battle. Fortunately, the grudge still exists, and the violent power has not disappeared. For me, that is still the root.

Xiuyi rested his chin and pondered for a while: I have to say, this is very interesting. A new kind of power, a new way of using it, doesn't conflict with battle qi... Haley, have you ever thought that the power in your body is the power of the domain?

The power of the field? Hailey was startled, and a piece of exquisite pastry fell out of his mouth: You mean I have the power of the domain?

It's just an embryo. Only warriors or mages who have reached the double top level can have the power of the domain. Since it has been like this for thousands of years, you who have not broken through to that step cannot easily be an exception. This encounter, it is very likely that you have some domain abilities in advance, allowing you to play the technique of shooting objects from the sky, but that does not mean that your strength is enough to form a domain. But for me, it is enough to understand what a domain is.

As Xiu said, he smiled slightly: Haley, your contract with Spark Prison is over, the prison no longer exists, and your mission has also come to an end. Cooperate with me and be my subordinate, and I will give you two rewards. One is enough money, and the other is to help you become a real sanctuary warrior.

Haley was dumbfounded when he heard this.

Becoming a real sanctuary is what every warrior dreams of.

You... are you sure you can do it?

Give me time, and I will definitely do it. Xiuyi replied with certainty: My understanding of the sanctuary will grow with the strength in your body. Believe me, Haley, no other alchemist can understand you better than me, and no other alchemist can approach the secrets of the sanctuary like me.

Haley cupped his chin in thought.

Hui, do you have any family? He asked suddenly.

Huey shook her head.

I have, Haley said. I have parents, a wife, and children. They need me to fight, to feed them with money earned from my own blood. Sanctuary is too far away for me, and my family still needs my care.

I can give you enough money, Haley.

Then... deal.
