Card Alchemist

Chapter 267 Kaninage

The door of the Duke's Mansion is in a mess.

Two Rhine statues used as decorations, one lost his head and the other was cut off.

Star couldn't help raising his lips. It seemed that those guys were making a fierce noise. There is still a pool of water stains on the ground, which seems to have been left after washing the blood.

"Your excellency, you are back." Tonis said respectfully, "Your apprentice is waiting for you. And your toys. She is in the basement, but she doesn't seem to like the basement environment so much. Do you need to see her now?"

"No, I think apprentices are more important than toys."

Star pushed the door open. Uther, the little guy, was reading a book. He saw Star enter the door and respectfully called the tutor.

"Sit down, the tutor's home is your home. Tell me, little guy, what do you want to learn? I think I should be able to be a competent mentor!" Star said with a smile. By the way, Tonis. Please let the cook cook some dinner. Tonight's dance party really tortures me to death.

"Yes, my lord!" Tonis knew that this was an excuse for Star to let him leave, but he quickly agreed. Because as any alchemist, they don't want their secrets to be known to too many people.

"I want to be a great alchemist like you. But I don't want to give up learning martial arts, which is too difficult for me to choose. The little guy said with longing.

"No problem, I can teach you these. So now I will arrange a course for you. For the time being, you will be taught martial arts by another tutor during the day. In the evening, I will teach you alchemy. Star said.

"Another mentor? Is it Uncle Tonis?" Uther asked doubtfully.

"No, I think you will like its course very much, and you will know then." Starr gently patted the little guy on the head. So from now on, you must remember everything I say.

"Yes, mentor."

"Alchemy and magic go the same way, and the only difference is the limitation of the law. The law of alchemy is very simple, only four words - equivalent exchange! You have to remember that nothing in the world can escape the limitations of these four words.

"What about family, love and friendship? The book says that there are three people who can pay for us and will not ask for any pay and reward. If everything is really like what you said, isn't the world too cruel? For Uther, although his wisdom is much higher than that of children of the same age, he still doesn't quite understand these truths.

Star nodded. He was not angry with Uther's retort, because in every word he said, he not only taught the new apprentice, but also observed each other. However, it can be seen from his words that Uther is not the kind of person who does anything to achieve his goals. Or it can be said that he doesn't understand this.

Star shook his head. He didn't know how to answer. Family affection, he hasn't seen his parents since he was a child, and even snatched food from wild dogs. And love... The girl he liked seems to have forgotten herself. As for friendship, in his previous life, everyone who approached him was for his own money.

"You will understand these later. Alchemy all exists in the equivalent exchange, just like this wooden table! Alchemists can only cast spells related to wood from it. In the desert, you can set off a sandstorm, but you can't have a rainstorm. All this is due to the equivalent exchange, because there is no water in the desert... Of course, if your magic is strong enough, you can also summon groundwater.

"Mentor, I think I understand. For example, in this room, if there is no flame, the alchemist cannot release the fire alchemy. If there is no water, water spells are not allowed. As for the equivalent exchange, it means that the more elements in this environment, the more power will be released!" Uther condensed for a moment and said quickly. But can't the law be broken? Tutor, I have read your notes. It says that the rules, like the rules, are made by the strong for the weak. If you want to be strong, you must learn to break through the rules. If you want to be a wise man, you must learn to exploit the loopholes of the law!"

After Ussel's reminder, Star quickly remembered. In fact, it is true, but it depends on who made the rules. From the rules of a world to the rules of a game. The stronger the person who makes the rule, the more difficult it will be to break this rule. This is exactly what alchemy is like. It is very difficult to break the law of equivalent exchange, but there are still loopholes. But this must rely on the power of the outside world!"

"I understand. Tutor, you have written a sentence below. With the help of the outside world, it will affect the growth of one's own strength. Uther nodded.

"It's so simple about equivalent exchange, and you don't need to know about the rest for the time being. Pharmacists, puppets, props, etc. You don't have the ability to get involved for the time being, but my proposal to you is to strengthen your magic power first. But before that, you must learn to meditate and accumulate magic. I have a book here. It is the book I read when I studied meditation. I think it should be useful to you!"

"Thank you, mentor!" Uther said.

"Give you three days to learn to meditate. Tonight is the first day. From tomorrow, you will start to learn martial arts. Starr handed over the Meditation Manual, "Well, I have to go to the basement to see the toys I got back tonight!"

In the basement.

The dirty and stench of acid and rotten smell came to the nose, and the heavy gasps of women came from the iron gate.

With the dim candlelight, Kaninage was tied to the wall and his limbs were cuffed to death. Her head hung weakly on her chest, and her gray hair covered her depressed face.

With a squeak, the iron door was pushed open, and Kaninaki slowly raised his head. A pair of angry pupils in the gap stared at Star, who was approaching her.

"Deading bell - Kaninage. I really didn't expect that someone would send you to kill me. How about the punishment of losing your youth for you? Star sat in front of Kaninage and said casually.

"Do you want to kill me?" The sound, which was originally as crisp and pleasant as a yellow warbler, has become dry and boring at this moment, like the friction of a wooden cabinet.

"Kill you, no, I don't have that guts. As for letting you go, I don't have this plan for the time being. Star said with a smile. I'm going to leave you by my side. At least I won't worry that you will appear at any time and stab a dagger into my heart.

"I swear that as long as I can break free, I will definitely kill you by the most cruel means!" Kaninagi hissed. The loss of appearance is a very cruel punishment for a girl who is only 17 years old. After suffering, she even began to go crazy and began to be hysterical.

Sta ignored Kaninaji's intimidation, and he tapped his finger casually. A smooth ice mirror quickly appeared in front of Kaninage, followed by a faint light. In the ice mirror, Kaninage could clearly see his dry body and the disgusting appearance.

"No!" Kaninage let out a scream.

"In fact, I have many ways to die for you to choose from, such as dying with an old face like this. It can also make you jump from a high place, burst your brain, and smash your face. It can also make you drown in the water, and your whole body is swollen and white. You can also let an insect called golden ants gnaw on you, and your body will become full of holes. But no matter which way you die, the beauty you are proud of will become extremely terrible. When your skin and flesh fall off and eventually become a skeleton, I think you will regret it. No one can recognize it from your body. It's the 'death knell' that once made people tremble!"

"Don't say it, don't say it!" Kaninage swayed his head crazily. She began to be afraid and regret. I'm afraid of the way I will die, and I regret why I chose to assassinate this person.

"No, I have to say it!" Star deliberately stood up and walked to Kaninage step by step. He slowly stretched out his hand and picked up the other party's chin. Come on, take a closer look at my face. This face will make you afraid, hate, and unforgettable in the future.

At this point, Star secretly glanced at his pocket watch. You have two choices now!"

"What choice?"

"You either throw yourself into the arms of death with an old skin, or return to a young look and die... the former or the latter?" Stallo had a charming voice, which stimulated Kaninagi. Every word he said, like a nightmare, penetrated into the soul of the other party.

"I choose the latter, I choose the latter!" The girl who could no longer support it began to cry in pain. She lowered her head, and crystal tears flowed down her gully face.

And Star took the opportunity to throw a red pill in.

At the moment when Kaninagi swallowed the pill, her body began to change again. The dry and dry skin gradually became full, and the dry face gradually regained its bright color. Kaninage looked at his recovered body, his wide eyes were full of joy, and then this trace of joy was quickly drowned out.
