After waking up

Late at night, Mulan tossed and turned in bed, thinking about all the known information and details.

As the true sea-fixing needle of the Dilga Empire, the whereabouts of the Faced Demon Walton cannot be exposed, at least not to let people know that he has not been in Dilga for a long time, and it is even inconvenient for Dilga to appear in public.

Therefore, to deal with the Pirate King, Walton needs someone who is truly capable, strong, and trustworthy.

Whether Nishelir is willing or not, Mulan is the most suitable candidate.

To have strong strength, to have the kind of magical creature that lives in one's body, to have absolute loyalty, the key is to have a calm mind at all times.

Pirates have always been a serious problem for Dilga, and can even be said to be a serious problem at sea for all countries in the world.

However, the conflicts between countries in the world are more serious, and it is unlikely that they will work together to suppress pirates, especially when they know that there will be huge losses.

However, it is definitely not in the interest of all parties to sit back and watch the pirates' maritime hegemony continue to increase, especially the interests of Dilga who want to exert force in the new era.

Dilga can take the initiative, but it cannot be known by others, because he knows that the Pirate King is a threat, but Dilga, the land overlord, is more vulnerable to joint attacks.

Therefore, secretly dealing with the Pirate King, obtaining the Pirate King's treasures, and turning disadvantages into advantages was just a plan that had been planned a long time ago.

"Sure enough, Dolly was a trap set up by Walton and the Queen, siren?"

If there is a certain influential person on the sea who has a grudge against the pirates, it must be the Kraken. It can be said that they have a feud with the pirates.

Of course, pirates, a gangster-like group, are by no means monolithic within themselves.

After thinking about it, Mulan still opened his eyes. The quality of his sleep was not good, and it was even harder to sleep when he was thinking. The main reason was too much pressure.

Pirate King Blomfield is the nineteenth on the Dark Demon List of the Temple, a true seventh-level existence.

Although they are also in the fertile stage in the theoretical system, Mulan does not think that he and the Pirate King are on the same level.

The further you get to the back, the more exaggerated the gap between ranks. It is not that the level of practice is clearly distinguished like in the novels of the previous life, but the transformation of life levels and the level of understanding of power are indeed completely different.

The same is abundance, but the degree of abundance is also different. There is no doubt that the seventh level has completely opened the door to the elements and overcame them. Even the storm can be controlled by the Pirate King.

"Hoo"

Mulan sighed, thinking that Leo's chance of survival was very slim, and how to face Grandpa Buck.

"Let's rest first."

At dawn the next day, Mulan had already arrived at Matt's alchemy with the things brought back by Goldspear.

"I may disappear for a while, so I need to finish the human body refining thing first to prevent it from exceeding the time limit."

Matt was still yawning, rubbing his eyes and opening the door to invite Mulan in.

"When does it begin."

"Just today."

"Yeah, I guessed it. It's really your style."

Having been in contact with Mulan for a long time, Matt had a certain immunity and was not shocked at all. Of course, after a few minutes, Matt opened his mouth in shock.

"Where did it come from? Where did this blood come from? Oh my God"

Matt held a special magnifying glass with five layers of overlap, covering the magic power, and carefully looked at the drop of blood dripping on the glass piece.

Matt thought it was a joke when Mullan mentioned it before, but now he realizes that human body training is really not nonsense.

"It was a friend of mine's and I brought back two bags, so we had two chances."

Matt looked up at Mulan, and then focused his attention on the two bags that appeared in his hands. Mulan frantically filled two bags full of blood with soft leather bags like water?

"If it succeeds, the second bag is mine!"

Matt said eagerly, and Mulan nodded indifferently: "Success is yours."

"Ha ha ha ha."

Matt smiled happily. This was human blood in the true sense. It was said before that Mulan's blood was special, but Matt hadn't actually researched anything. The attraction to him was not as good as the current blood. I don’t know why that spooky guy Alofa is obsessed with Mulan’s blood.

"Okay, hurry up and start, you will assist me, right, right, let's wake up Barton first! By the way, I also have a heart of blood. If it takes a second time to succeed, remember to give me a bag of blood at that time. !”

Matt's mental state is completely different. With true blood, he might be able to use ancient alchemy to create some special alchemical lives, such as transcending gargoyles. Just thinking about it is exciting.

"Boom~"

A violent explosion broke out in the underground alchemy laboratory, and the reaction spell array was activated instantly. Barton, who was lying on the experimental table, was directly thrown away by the fire and hit hard by the glow of the activation array.

rumble rumble

The alchemy hut was shaking slightly.

"Cough cough cough, cough cough."

Mulan fanned away the smoke around him, Matt was also coughing, and Barton, who was naked on the ground, shook his head and stood up, with only a few more scratches on his body.

"Have I become a human?"

Mulan threw a piece of clothing to Barton.

"Not yet. We failed this time, but we still have a chance. We just have to succeed next time. I won't be able to go to Kingspea again in a short time."

Mullan and Walton will take a merchant ship out to sea from Bayer Port in the morning three days later, and Mullan also plans to take a detour to Valentine, so time is tight.

"Cough, cough, cough"

Matt calmed his breathing and looked at the alchemy table that had been distorted by the explosion.

"How could it be possible? It's impossible. How could we fail?"

"What went wrong?"

Mulan was also thinking carefully. It was clear that the two of them were extremely careful and perfect from the fine control of magic power to the layout of the spell array and the selection of materials. Theoretically, the success rate should be very high.

The two of them thought about it all morning, but still couldn't figure out the reason, because no matter how they thought it should be perfect, and they read a lot of alchemy information, they couldn't bring new inspiration to them.

"Maybe we need someone with more experience in alchemy to help."

Mulan suddenly said this, and Matt actually thought of it, but he didn't expect Mulan to say it first.

"Professor Alofa."

"Yes."

At worst, give that guy some blood. Mulan's strength has improved now. Although he is wary of Alofa, there is no need to be afraid. Moreover, that guy is indeed an amazing alchemist. It would be a pity not to use it.

Mulan and Matt came to the door together. When they heard that they needed advice on how to refine the human body, even Alofa immediately put down what he was doing and came over.

Unsurprisingly, Alofa was also shocked when he saw the real blood.

"Is there really such blood in the world? It obviously contains extraordinary power, but it is the purest human blood in all aspects. It has not been mixed by any transformation of life levels. It is far purer than ordinary human blood. "

"So we have such good materials, and there should be no problems with the alchemy formation, but we still failed. Is it just bad luck?"

Matt said, handing the draft of the alchemy formation to Alofa. The latter glanced at Mulan beside him, and then looked down at the formation. His eyes did not leave the draft, but his mouth was talking.

"Professor Jonest, if I help you successfully create a human body, in return, I want two liters of blood, your blood."

Mulan had already expected that, although in theory Faro Lynch's blood was far more precious than his, he just had an inexplicable feeling that Alofa wanted his own blood more.

"No problem, but I also have a small request. I hope you can share with me some of the results you have researched using my blood. For this reason, if you still need it in the future, I can provide more blood as appropriate."

Alofa's eyes lit up.

"Okay, I agree to your request."

Then the draft of the alchemical magic circle was thrown aside by Alofa.

"Actually, there is nothing wrong with your formation and materials. It is not an exaggeration to say that it is perfect."

"Is it really luck?"

Matt was a little annoyed. If it was just luck, then why did he invite this gloomy guy?

"There is some luck involved, but not entirely. I think your alchemy is a bit too decent."

"upright?"

Mulan frowned slightly and looked at Alofa, who smiled and whispered only one word.

"Sacrifice."

If Matt received an electric shock, Mulan was also shocked, but Alofa's words continued.

"But an alchemy seems to be perfect, so if you want it to succeed, the best and most effective way is to use sacrifices. The more the better, hehehehe."

Mulan's tooth crown moved, and he squinted at Alofa. Suddenly, a steaming shadow appeared behind him, and the strong pressure of the fourth-level victory knight made the entire laboratory feel like it was shaking.

Alofa seemed to be able to see a towering city wall crushing him. He couldn't help but take two steps back before standing still. The smile on his gloomy face faded.

"Don't be so nervous. How can you let Professor Jonst, who symbolizes light and justice, use human beings as sacrifices? I have a better substitute."

Mulan's momentum subsided slightly, and he seemed to have thought of something. Sure enough, Alofa's next words confirmed this.

"Do you still remember those green crystals that the advancing army brought back from Goldspear? I don't know how the people of the Life God Cult did it, but that is the life force that many, many Goldspear people have absorbed."

"Mu Lan, Professor Alofa is right, there is no need to kill people, we can try it!"

Mulan's eyes turned to the side, where the burly Barton had been sitting.

"Life crystals are a method used by cults. I once swore an oath to fight against the cults."

After these two high-sounding words, Mulan changed the subject and walked to Barton to continue.

"But I am not a pedantic person. Those lives have passed away. Instead of letting those crystals stay in the black castle to mold, I would rather leave the meaning of life to you."

"Please remember that your life was given to you by ordinary humans who sacrificed thousands of times."

"No matter what meaning you are looking for in your life, don't forget this premise!"

Barton looked at Mulan blankly. His speech was clumsy on weekdays, but he was never unable to speak. He longed to become a real person, but unlike Farrow Lynch, the more he reached this moment, the more Barton became. It's confusion.

After becoming a human being, what is the purpose of becoming a human being? Is it life to be with Mr. Jonest all the time and have someone to give you orders all the time? What if Lord Jonest doesn't give the order? Is he no longer an Avenger still seeking revenge on the Brigade?

But at this moment, the confusion in Barton's eyes seemed to be dissipating. It turned out that the confusion he had always had was the meaning of life.

"Find the meaning of life for yourself"

Barton repeated these words in a low voice.

At this moment, sensing that Barton's usually single emotion was becoming complicated, Mulan's heart suddenly moved slightly. Perhaps at this moment, the last link of alchemy was truly completed.
