The shadows of the old world, the tides of the new era. Light and darkness, chaos and dawn... arise alternately in a world of machinery and witchcraft!
But what does this have to do with me, ...
The other party came very suddenly...
But it was very strange that a great alchemist who had stayed in the imperial city all year round suddenly came here.
When Lucille said the other person's name, another idea suddenly came to Sean's mind... The other person was not coming here, but had been waiting here.
"If I'm not mistaken, you have been waiting here all the time, and it was you who deliberately let Lucille get Abdullah's research manuscript." Sean continued.
"Yes, I want you to get Abdullah's manuscript."
Rachel didn't deny it but answered directly and readily. Even at this time, there was no [Hostile] or [Cold] favorability rating above the other party's head, and she didn't bring anyone else with her. It seemed that her simple purpose was to get the other breakup manuscript she had just received.
"Why! Sister Rachel?" Lucille asked in disbelief.
After wandering in the desert and the southern countries for so many years, he could not fully trust anything or even everyone, but he always believed in his elder sister Lucille unconditionally.
"There are many reasons for this, Sister Lucille, but believe me, I have no intention of persecuting you."
"But you deceived me!" Lucille retorted.
"There are some things you don't understand..."
"I'm no longer the little girl I was back then." Her voice suddenly rose a few degrees.
Bang~
The door slammed shut at this moment, and at the same time, a powerful magical power flowed through Lucille's body, and even the nearby books were blown up by an inexplicable strong wind.
Of course Lucille would be angry. After all, the Rachel in front of her was someone she had always respected since she was a child... and it was this person who took advantage of her.
Looking back, it was precisely because Lucille was his senior mentor that he didn't pay much attention to her. Similarly, the other party also took advantage of this and deliberately let Lucille find the manuscript.
"Believe me, sister! I won't harm you. I just want you to help me find another manuscript."
"asshole!"
Lucille roared in anger and threw a spell at Rachel who was rushing towards the door, but just as she was about to reach the other side, she was blocked by a metal wall that suddenly appeared... The Gold Alchemist, with the same ability as more than 20 years ago, was good at refining any metal.
The moment the magic was blocked, a quickly drawn alchemy array appeared under Sean and Lucille's feet.
Steel emerged from the ground, forming an iron cage that instantly enveloped the two of them...
"You want to trap me in an iron cage like this?" Lucille seemed really angry.
He grabbed the iron bars with one hand and tried to pull Sean with the other...
"Sean, follow me, I will take you out. Rachel has the ability of a level 18 orderer, you are no match for him!" He pulled Sean without waiting for his consent.
Magical luck created a hole in the iron bars out of thin air and jumped out.
But what stood in front of him were two metal bronze statues that were slightly taller than a normal person and could still move, being used like puppets.
It was then that Sean recalled a few years ago, probably when he and Lucille first met in the small town. At that time, he asked about the profession of alchemist, but the other party said that it would be best to pray that he would not encounter warlocks, otherwise the golems they summoned using the [Contract] would be difficult to deal with.
Sean has indeed encountered many warlocks over the years and has seen some powerful warlocks, but there are very few people who can use this kind of power. The two golems in front of him should be what was mentioned at that time.
Various brightly colored runes were engraved on the metal-like appearance...
These can all move, and their speed is not limited by their metal bodies, so they move extremely fast!
As soon as Lucille and Sean came out of the iron cage, they encountered a golem rushing towards them. The two of them let go and dodged to different places, but the golem did not miss. While swinging its weapon, it was able to turn in the middle of the road and attack them.
Sean can only rely on the power of [Time Ruler] to dodge the rapid attack...
The body instantly entered the slow time and space of the other dimension, and the world in front of the eyes seemed to be forbidden. However, in this world of only black and white, the golem in front of the eyes was no longer made of metal, but a human-shaped black cloud with glowing eyes.
How could that be!
Sean stared at the strange golem in front of him in surprise, and the hidden blade on his wrist continued to pierce...
Time returned to reality again. The golem's metal body was indeed pierced, but it was useless. It could still move its body and strike back again.
【Corrosion~】
【Frozen~】
The restrictive magic hit the opponent backhand, but it had little effect. Only the physical effect of freezing barely trapped the opponent's speed for a few seconds. With its powerful strength, it could still break free.
“Go to hell!”
A surge of magic passed through the bodies of the two golems, and Lucille pushed them directly into the densely packed bookshelves on both sides.
"Sister Rachel, are you really going to fight me?" The witch's gray dress fluttered in the wind, and her snow-white hair also flew. Her red lips parted slightly, and her eyes stared at Rachel not far away with an angry look.
One hand held a ball of flame-like substance, but white and black...
"I have no intention of fighting you, Sister Lucille. Otherwise, I wouldn't have used only two golems. You know my abilities. If I were to fight, it wouldn't be just two, it would be tens of thousands... Even you would have a hard time escaping from my alchemical array, not to mention that this entire city is covered in my alchemical arrays. You can't leave with your good apprentice!"
Their levels were almost equal, but Rachel had been a famous gold alchemist since Lucille was a little girl.
If we really fight, we won't gain any advantage...
Furthermore, Sean had discovered during that exploratory attack just now that he couldn't defeat these golems with just his own level of magic. One might be enough, but the other party was talking about tens of thousands!
All along, the ones he was fighting against were humans, so under the control of time disorder, he could win with a single strike. However, golems had no sense of pain, and even if they were broken into pieces, they could be reassembled. The passage of time was just a way for him to keep dodging.
Of course, if he wanted to escape, Sean believed he could still do so!
"As long as you hand over the box in your apprentice's hand to me, I will pretend that nothing happened tonight. Jagon and Kserk will still have a good relationship, you will still be our guests of honor, and we sisters will not be affected in any way." Rachel said.
But after hearing this, Lucille still refused.
"Asshole! Asshole! I've always respected you as my best sister, but..."
"Why?"
"I told you there are some things you don't understand." Rachel replied [Calm down!].
"Then you won't discuss it with me!"
Lucille clenched her hands holding the magical energy, and the energy disappeared, but her emotions remained excited.
Rachel sighed and slowly said a name.
"Rorschach."
