The negotiations with the four countries went very smoothly; they didn't even utter a single word of refusal in the face of Edward's conditions.
Of course, even if they wanted to refuse, it wouldn't make a difference.
Edward could try reasoning with these people.
Hmm, no problem. He gave his Terminator Titan a nickname, which is "Reason." What's wrong? Is there a problem?
Shikoku: No problem, absolutely no problem, we have no objection.
The negotiations concluded, and as stipulated, the El Empire's army, along with the alchemists, returned home with their spoils in about ten days.
Dylan.
"Thank you all for taking care of my old buddy Titan. No need to see me off any further, see you later~"
Zanya changed his appearance and then returned to drive his Mountain Giant back home.
Although his Titan was indeed damaged by the four Emperors, it can at least be repaired and still be used.
His achievements this time were significant, and the resources needed to repair Titan are not a problem at all.
As for those Viperans? They could only watch helplessly as the Titans left, unable to do anything about it.
"It's such a pity. The new equipment created by these alchemists is a masterpiece that is groundbreaking."
"We finally managed to take care of the user, but he left after only a few days of research..."
That's not the most crucial point, because the claim of killing the High Alchemist entitles them to almost the largest compensation.
The people were killed, the equipment was taken away, and the technology was not successfully researched. It's a huge loss.
He wanted to cry, but couldn't.
"You damned alchemists, you just wait, we'll be back!"
Zell.
"So many materials! Let's take them back and analyze them. Life alchemy is becoming more and more perfect. We can even make trees grow from the soil, laden with finished potions..."
Alice led her team back, and they had a great haul. Not to mention all sorts of potions, some of them even took the armor and weapons from Zell's armory.
They can't say anything, they can't beat them, so they might as well send these living devils away quickly.
The territory of the dwarves.
"Boom..."
The dwarves watched as the El Empire's armored vehicle force drove across the border, these steel behemoths dragging some huge mechanical structures along with them.
Yes, that's right, it's the large dwarven mech belonging to the dwarven lord that was damaged by the Titans during this war.
It can only be described as taking both food and money.
"Damn it, our mechs! Mechs, how can I live without you?"
Watching the equipment they painstakingly built, piece by piece, being taken away by someone else.
This feeling is even more painful than when a model enthusiast painstakingly collects a cabinet full of models, only to have them torn to pieces by a visiting brat.
Their hearts felt like they were bleeding.
"There's a cow! There's a cow!"
What? You're asking about the orcs?
They watched as the emperor drove his Titan away, and as the moving mountain range receded into the distance, they breathed a sigh of relief.
"We're safe, for now."
Unfortunately, they were too happy too soon.
Meanwhile, in the capital of the El Empire, Edward received the news.
The last contingent of the El Empire's army had already returned home by this time.
"Now, everything is ready."
With his eyes closed, he could sense the ultimate secret they had been preparing during this time: the Land Transmutation Array.
It's already completed; underground tunnels have been dug, outlining the most basic structure.
In coordination with the army's operations, they captured one node after another on the map.
Now, only the final step remains, and the exciting moment has finally arrived.
"tread……"
Once again, we entered the basement, passed through the passage, and arrived at the testing ground.
At the very center was the activation core that Edward had prepared for himself, the core of the land-forged system.
On either side of him stood the Supreme Alchemists and the other Alchemists who had evolved into perfect beings.
"tread……"
As Edward passed through Alice and Zalia, images of the past flashed through his mind.
Those prisoners, because of the Philosopher's Stone and the experiment on perfect life, had their souls stripped away and their flesh melted.
"Monsters, demons, I curse you! May you all die a horrible death, you madmen who toy with life!"
He could feel their resentment through their painful wails and fear of death.
A voice appeared in my ear.
"Does everything you've done in the past make you feel a sense of guilt creeping up your spine?"
No, not at all.
My heart and actions are as clear as a mirror, and all my deeds are for the sake of justice.
Continue onward, passing by Karen and the Emperor.
The scene now appeared in his mind.
The army of the El Empire, with Supreme Alchemists as its main force, used artillery, energy beams, soul strikes, and physical destruction.
