The Devil’s Cage Chapter 48: Answer
Kieran got off the car and walked slowly to the figure.
The other person is a tall but extremely strong old man with a large white beard. If he holds a battle axe in his hand, it will be a classic dwarf.
However, even if the opponent does not have a battle axe in his hand, but only a short sword in his waist, he is still not to be underestimated.
The short sword gave Kieran a sense of danger.
Vaguely, faintly.
It seems to be disappearing, but it will be clearly visible in the next moment.
As the Intuition attribute level increases, Kieran believes in his Intuition.
Therefore, he became more cautious.
While Kieran is looking at each other, the other party is also looking at Kieran.
Then, grin.
"2567?"
The other party asked.
"Who are you?"
Kieran, whose nickname is called directly, is not surprised.
If the other party has evil intent in mind, it must be prepared. Knowing his nickname is a basic.
"Charles."
"Your leather armor tinker, friend of Simones."
The other person introduced himself and extended his right hand.
Kieran raised an eyebrow.
Simones once said that he would find him a leather armor tinker, and he was still a Master Alchemy Grandmaster, but Simones did not describe each other in detail.
Therefore, Kieran simply cannot confirm whether the other party is real.
So, Kieran did not reach out.
"Cautious youngster!"
"Is there Raul with you?"
"Raul? Raul?"
The other party commented on Kieran in this way, and then asked a question, but without waiting for Kieran to answer, he shouted outright.
Moreover, I received a response from Raul immediately.
"Charles Grandmaster?"
Raul came to Kieran with inquiries. When he saw the that person old man, he was a happy hug.
"Grandmaster, long time no see."
"Why are you in Johnny Town?"
"I thought I needed to return to West Coast again to be able to see you!"
After greeting Raul, he asked in doubt.
"Of course, the guy in Simones called me and urged me to find you quickly-he was too worried that 2567 did not have a qualified Armor, and he thought I could help you on this trip, so I came in Waiting for you here."
"However, it seems that you are late and are in big trouble!"
The old man glanced at the car which was almost full of scars, about to fall apart, and laughed.
"Yes!"
"At that time, it was really thrilling!"
Raul immediately nodded again and again, recounting the previous ambush.
Kieran glanced at Raul with a little surprise.
Raul may be due to experience | meeting with and scars on her body. She has always been silent, mostly relying on her husband Cidney to communicate with others.
Only when you meet an acquaintance or when necessary will you say a few more words.
But that's it.
It is the first time I have seen Kieran to communicate with Charles.
"Are you curious?"
"Actually, I was surprised at the beginning, but this is a good thing, isn't it?"
"Although Charles Grandmaster does not admit it, Raul has always regarded Grandmaster as his teacher."
Cidney came over and explained softly.
Kieran and Schmidt nodded suddenly.
The Raul story is very detailed and lasts for about ten minutes. During this period, Charles asked some details from time to time, and Raul added one by one.
"It really is an ancient Alchemy!"
In the end, Charles sighed like this.
"Ancient Alchemy?"
It's not the first time Schmidt whispered the word.
"You must be police chief Schmidt of West Coast?"
The old man did not answer, but grinningly guessing the identity of Schmidt.
"Yes, it is an honor to meet you, Charles Grandmaster."
Schmidt nodded and greeted the old man.
"Now?"
The old man turned his head to look at Kieran, and once again extended his hand, the both eyes was full of teasing.
"Nice to meet you, Charles Grandmaster."
Kieran looks calm, even holding his right hand with a smile, which makes Charles's eyes surprised.
"Aren’t you embarrassed?"
Charles asked.
"I didn't know your identity before, and I need this vigilance. Now that I have confirmed your identity, it proves that my vigilance is unnecessary. Why is it embarrassing?"
Kieran asked rhetorically.
For a Kieran who grew up in an orphanage when he was 14 years old and started working part-time in order to survive.
It's been a lot of embarrassment and embarrassment.
Compared to this, the things in front of me are really nothing.
"It is the person who predicted Lei... Are you embarrassed?"
Charles sighed, and then he discovered the unnaturalness on Kieran's face.
"2567, I still can't accept my identity until now, always as shy as a little girl...Hahaha Ha, 2567, I'm not laughing at you, but every time I see your expression, I Can't help it!"
With a lively laugh, Schmidt kept flapping the hood of Pickup.
The Pickup, which was about to fall apart, was completely taken off in such a beat.
Oh!
Not only did the fire go out, but a shadow came out from under the hood.
Kieran rolled his eyes and looked at Schmidt.
This time Schmidt is embarrassed.
"There will be a car repair shop in the town!"
Schmidt emphasized that he wanted to hide his embarrassment.
"No need to bother, come with me!"
"Thanks to this progressive era, I remember when I was younger, I still ride horses, every time I need to bring several horses to be able to bring what I want to bring, and now?"
"A car is ready!"
As he spoke, he walked into the town with the crowd.
An RV hauled by Pickup is parked there.
The RV is light blue in general, the roof and four corners are rounded, one side is painted with white clouds, and the back of the car is a sun like a child's graffiti. That kind.
Anyone who sees this RV can't help but wonder whether the owner of the RV is a humorous person without any seriousness.
"If there is no problem, how about we leave overnight?"
Charles proposed.
"Of course."
No one will object, everyone is eager to reach the town of Flod.
The Raul couple is looking for their friend Lucie.
Kieran is to confirm the whereabouts of Nikorei.
And Schmidt?
It's totally with everyone.
After transferring the original car to Charles' car, the crowd set off again.
Because of repairing leather armor, Kieran was invited to the RV by Charles.
"The problem is not big, it can be repaired before arriving in the town of Flode."
Charles' words made Kieran relieved.
Although [Paul’s Conceal]’s Defense Power is not excellent, before the Kieran has no more suitable Armor, the other party is irreplaceable.
When facing many enemies, you have first floor defense and rely on your own muscles to resist, that is completely two concepts.
Especially in groups of enemies.
Subconsciously, Kieran thought of those black knights again.
"Charles Grandmaster, are those black knights also made of ancient Alchemy?"
Kieran asked.
"It is mainly based on the ancient Alchemy, but also contains some other extremely secret knowledge-I never thought that this knowledge has also been retained."
Charles corrected Kieran.
"What knowledge?"
Kieran continued to ask.
Charles smiled and did not answer.
The undersized old man took the pipe out of a drawer, and slowly stuffed the tobacco leaves without looking for a lighter.
The flames flashed on the other person's fingers, and the tobacco leaves were ignited.
This scene makes Kieran eyes narrowed.
Not relying on Magic Item, but...magic itself?
No spells, no gestures, just a flick of a finger, and flames appeared.
Even if the flame is similar to a lighter, but for Kieran with certain [Mystical Knowledge] Basic, it still caused an impact.
Because, according to his understanding, this is impossible.
Looking at the puzzled Kieran, Charles took a deep breath and spit out several smoke rings. Then, he walked through the smoke rings with his hands and waited for the smoke rings to dissipate before breaking them down.
This kid-like behavior is really ridiculous.
However, for Kieran, he still recalls the previous scene.
"This is the secret knowledge?"
After a while, Kieran asked.
"Yes, it is not."
Charles said ambiguously.
Then Alchemy Grandmaster waited for Kieran to ask questions again, and said directly.
"Simones wants me to point you to Alchemy, and I also hope to point to the "King" in Lei's prophecy, but..."
"You need to answer me a question."
"What do you think Alchemy is?"
"If you think clearly, then answer, I treat everyone equally!"
"There is only one chance. If your answer does not satisfy me, even if there is a request from the Simones guy, I will not teach you anything!"
The test appeared.
Kieran heart tremble.
He didn’t know if Raul had experienced such a test before he was directed by the other party.
But he is very clear that the other party should not be kidding.
If he can’t satisfy the other party, he will lose this opportunity.
Think for a moment.
Kieran began to answer.
"Alchemy is..."
However, just after opening his mouth, Kieran stopped suddenly.
He swallowed the sounding words back into his stomach, and looked at Charles in front of him with a scrutiny. The smiling partner set a trap for him when he started talking to him.
Language trap!
Whether it is the ancient Alchemy mentioned or the secret knowledge, it is to disrupt his emotions and make him suffer.
Undoubtedly, the other party was successful.
Without spells and gestures, that hand directly broke his calmness~IndoMTL.com~ made him more curious.
It’s almost a bit lost from past judgment.
If it’s not that the other party has too much teasing in the expression, I’m afraid the other party has succeeded.
Because, that is not a look at the answer at all.
Instead...
Look at the joke!
Hoo!
Kieran takes a deep breath, leaving the previous answer behind him, he said the current answer.
"Alchemy is..."
