Checking the achievent task "Sentence", Su Xiao nodded. Although he didn’t know what the reward for "Sentence" was, this achievent task aligned with his goal to weaken the power of the Little Man in the Bottle.
Su Xiao cleaned up the battle scene, mainly clearing the bloodstains he left, as the homunculi could trace him through these bloodstains.
Su Xiao rode on Bu Wang, who was very gloomy, as he had to start traveling again.
Three hours later, Su Xiao returned to Lisembur Town, which had turned into a pile of charred ruins. Despite eight hours having passed, the fires from the explosion still hadn’t been extinguished.
Around the small town, there was no one, the flas from the explosion devoured the entire town.
Su Xiao wandered around the edge of the town for about two hours before he finally t the person he was waiting for.
A troop of around three hundred soldiers rushed to the vicinity of the town, they were the agreed-upon cleanup team.
"Fla Alchemist, thank you for your hard work, we will handle it from here."
The squad leader of the troops looked at Su Xiao, his heart filled with trepidation, seemingly horrified by Su Xiao’s act of destroying the entire town.
"The mastermind behind the rebellion was the Ishbal People, so of whom escaped during the explosion but were already cleared by . Do you need the bodies to be collected?"
Su Xiao glanced at the small leader of the army. He had prepared a dozen corpses and they were indeed Ishbal People.
"No need, as long as we know who the mastermind is. Thank you."
After speaking, the small leader of the army led the soldiers into the town, and Su Xiao walked toward the nearby small town on foot, preparing to take the train back to Central City.
His actions this ti were: investigating the town, placing bombs, detonating explosives, chasing the escaping Ishbal People, fighting the Ishbal People, then slightly injured, and returning to the town.
This all took 9 hours and 12 minutes, without any flaws.
Anyone with a normal mind wouldn’t associate the death of the two homunculi in Lorial City with Su Xiao.
The distance between Lorial City and Lisembur Town was very far. If it weren’t for Bubute Ni’s speed being fast enough, Su Xiao wouldn’t have been able to make the round trip within nine hours.
Moreover, within those nine hours, he had an alibi, so even if the homunculi from Central City investigated him, it mattered not.
Sitting on the train returning to Central City, Su Xiao began to consider the order of killing the homunculi.
Lust, Gluttony has been dealt with, and five homunculi remain.
The subsequent order is Greed·Gerid, Envy·Enwei, Sloth·Sloth, Pride·Pride, Wrath.
Su Xiao arranged the order for killing the homunculi, which wasn’t a task requirent, but rather according to their importance to the Little Man in the Bottle.
Among them, greed was the easiest to handle, this guy had been gone for years, and even if he died, it wouldn’t attract others’ attention.
The train slowly moved, occasionally stopping in transit.
"Travelers, Dabris Town will arrive shortly."
The broadcast prompt appeared, making Su Xiao, who was already drowsy due to excessive blood loss, a bit more awake.
"Dabris Town?"
Suddenly Su Xiao felt the na of this small town was sowhat familiar, but couldn’t recall the specific situation of this town for a while.
"Dabris, Dabris, where exactly is this."
Quickly recalling the place na of Dabris in his mind, suddenly, a flash of inspiration hit Su Xiao, he rembered what Dabris Town was.
"So it passes here, it seems fate has a hand in this."
Su Xiao nudged Bu Wang on the seats beside him, this silly guy was sleeping with drool flowing.
"Wake up, prepare to get off."
"Woof~."
Bu Wang whimpered, but it showed no intention of waking up.
Su Xiao took out a bone and placed it in front of Bu Wang’s nose, Bu Wang’s nose twitched as it slept, and its head unconsciously moved forward.
Under the temptation of the food, Bu Wang awakened but was still bleary-eyed, seemingly saying with its gaze: ’Who am I, where am I, I want food.’
Su Xiao got off the train. He had noted this town while watching "Fulltal Alchemist".
If rembered correctly, Dabris Town is the small town where the protagonist’s master resides.
If the timing wasn’t wrong, greed·Gerid would appear here within at most two days.
Su Xiao got off the train, and soon a noise arose from the train.
"What’s going on? It’s already past the departure ti."
"Yes, I have urgent business in Central City."
The conductor was sweating, the train had a problem, and for an unknown reason, it couldn’t continue carrying passengers.
"Ladies and gentlen, please listen to . The train has encountered so problems. Please take the next train."
The noise of argunts spread in the station, Su Xiao did not pay attention to the argunt noise, the train was damaged by him.
Following a normal process, he would have to return to Central City. Although he was released from prison, it didn’t an he was free.
Before completely turning against the homunculi, Su Xiao’s whereabouts couldn’t be too far from Central City.
Arriving at a telephone booth, Su Xiao uttered a code phrase, then connected to the military line and dialed Envy·Enwei’s phone.
"Hello, who is this?"
Enwei’s tone was always sowhat provocative, jealousy was rampant in his mind.
"I am Fla."
"Turns out it’s Fla, I heard about the matter over there, you actually blew up the entire town, really ruthless, ha ha."
"I can’t return to Central City temporarily."
Su Xiao thought to himself whether to resolve Enwei sooner, as this guy was equivalent to his watcher.
"Can’t return, what’s wrong, are you planning to escape alone?"
Enwei’s tone had so dissatisfaction.
"The train broke down, and I am injured, planning to recuperate in Dabris Town."
"Is that so? Alright, ’co back soon’. If you don’t return within three days, huh~."
Enwei hung up the phone abruptly.
After Enwei hung up, Su Xiao’s eyes sparkled, the idea of resolving Enwei sooner beca stronger.
"After dealing with greed, it’s your turn."
Su Xiao left the public phone booth, preparing to find a couple, yes, the protagonist’s master.
Su Xiao didn’t plan to interact with the protagonist’s master, if divided by alignnt, the protagonist’s master belonged to ’Lawful Good’, while Su Xiao would belong to the ’Chaotic Neutral’ or ’Lawful Evil’ faction.
The two sides were inherently at odds, cooperation was unlikely.
Except for a very few protagonists, Su Xiao and most protagonists belonged to the type that looked at each other with displeasure.
The protagonist’s master is a powerful female alchemist, with so fa locally.
After so inquiry, Su Xiao learned the address of the protagonist’s master Izumi·Curtis. The couple ran a butcher shop.
Su Xiao glanced at the Bu Wang beside him.
"Bu Bu, it’s ti to show your charm."
