In the library, Tang En looked at Edward in surprise.
This doesn't seem right. Isn't the Hohnheim family an alchemy family? Why does someone from that family want to take Angus as his teacher?
Even if Angus is a famous alchemy grandmaster in Prandal, there's no need for him to go so far, right?
"Boy, I told you before that you can't learn alchemy from me."
As soon as Angus said this, Tang En realized that the two of them had met before.
Edward said stubbornly, "The reason you gave last time is not valid. You should know very well that as a child of a concubine, I can't really come into contact with the core knowledge of the Hohnheim family."
"But I think the steel puppet you made is already very good. This shows that you have mastered the essentials through your own efforts."
Angus shook his head and said, "It's not suitable for you to learn my knowledge. My alchemy is not suitable for you. Learning from me will only affect your talent. You should walk your own path."
"Alphonse is just one of my attempts."
Damn, although he's not my brother, his name is still Alphonse!
Edward looked at the steel puppet and said regretfully, "I tried to restore the Giant Golden Statue recorded in the family's literature, but what I finally created was a defective product with only Silver-level strength."
Damn, a steel puppet has Silver-level strength. What else do you want, brother!
Just as he subconsciously complained in his heart, Tang En suddenly came back to his senses. "Wait! You just said that the Giant Golden Statue is recorded in your family's literature? "
"Yes."
Edward looked at Tang En a little strangely. "It's the Giant Golden Statue Legion that was controlled by Girard, the founder of the Irus Empire. It was designed by my ancestors."
Tang En and Angus looked at each other and were a little excited. They didn't expect the Hohnheim family to still have information about the Giant Golden Statue Legion!
Tang En took out Irus' Scepter of the King. "Do you know what this is?"
Edward glanced at it and said, "Isn't that the Scepter of the King that controls the Golden Giant Statue Army? What's wrong? "
Edward's reaction was so calm, but Tang En was surprised. "Aren't you surprised to see this?"
"What am I surprised about?"
Edward was baffled. "You are now the King of the Irus Empire. It is normal for the Royal Scepter to be in your hands."
Seeing Tang En's blank expression, Angus whispered, "After the Scepter of the King was lost, the late king found someone to make a replica. The one in the palace's treasury is a replica. Only a few people know that the Irus' Scepter of the King was lost."
After hearing what Angus said, Tang En suddenly understood.
"What did you say? The Scepter of the King was lost?! "
Edward, who was slow to react, was shocked.
"What's there to be shocked about?!"
Angus said impatiently. "Didn't Tang En find it?"
"In other words, this is real? It can summon the legendary invincible Golden Giant Statue Army? "
"No."
Tang En shook his head decisively. "Although we found it, the Scepter of the King was damaged at the end of the first Chaos invasion. We need to repair it, which means we need to read the information left behind by your ancestors."
After that, he said to Edward very seriously, "So, there is one more reason for me to go to your family."
"This … Okay, I will take you there."
Edward looked at Angus and said, "The premise is that Master Angus is willing to accept me as a disciple."
Angus smiled bitterly and said, "Edward, you are a very intelligent child. If you continue to study on your own, sooner or later you will become a greater alchemist than me. If you learn from me, you can only follow in my footsteps. Are you sure you want to do this?"
Edward said firmly, "Master, I firmly believe in one principle. Only after mastering the knowledge that I should master can I create something that belongs to me. If I can't even master the things that my predecessors have researched, I can't find my own path at all."
"But …"
"That's enough, Angus. You don't have to say anymore."
Tang En admired Edward's character very much. He smiled and said, "Just take him in. He's right. Humans are constantly learning and exploring new knowledge. Generations of people explore and summarize the knowledge and pass it down. This will allow the future generations to learn less detours, and then seek new knowledge."
Angus scratched his head, a little annoyed. "But I'm really …"
"A set of complete materials for a teleportation array!"
Tang En stared at him and said, "If you accept him, I will give it to you."
"Two sets — no, four sets!"
Angus immediately said, "Give me four sets of materials, and I will consider it!"
Tang En said impatiently, "I will give you six sets of materials. There is no need to consider. Accept him now."
"Deal!"
Angus smiled slyly.
F * ck!
Tang En came back to his senses. F * ck, I've been tricked again!
Edward looked at Tang En very gratefully and changed his words. "Master!"
"Well, since you are so sincere about accepting me as your master, I will accept you. This is the alchemy notebook that I have summed up over the years. Take it and have a look. If there is anything you don't understand, write it down. Ask me after you have summed it up."
Angus threw a few scrolls to Edward, then looked straight at Tang En.
"Okay, okay, I will give it to you, okay?"
The speechless Tang En immediately took out a pile of materials. There were fist-sized Magic Essences, large pieces of Mithril and Auguin ingots, bundles of Eternium Wire, and a large amount of top-grade magic dust …
"F * ck, give me half!"
Jean's eyes instantly turned red, and he rushed up to snatch it. Angus was quick to react. He waved his hand and put the things into his spatial ring. Then, he looked at Jean calmly and said with a fake smile, "With these materials, I don't believe I will lose this bet."
Jean directly threw away his dignity. "F * ck, I admit that you have won, okay? If you still consider me a friend, give me half! "
"You admit that you have lost?"
"I admit it!"
"You are willing to run naked in Ellington and admit defeat?"
"I am willing!"
F * ck, do you have to play so big!?
Tang En was stunned. Even if you are willing, I am not!
This is offensive to public decency!
Offensive to public decency!
Not to mention those little girls with tender faces, even those great gods and aunties would feel that it was an eyesore!
Angus said with a sinister smile, "Then go, I will give you half when you come back."
"You must keep your word."
Jean said as he put the clothes into his spatial ring without hesitation and rushed out.
"F * ck, he is really going to run naked!?"
Tang En still could not believe what he saw. He already knew that Jean's skin was extremely thick, but he did not expect that he still underestimated him!
"At least when we are watching him, he won't dare to act shamelessly."
Angus nodded with satisfaction. With a flick of his finger, an Arcane Eye flew out, intending to enjoy this ugly scene.
As soon as the Arcane Eye caught up with Jean, Angus almost vomited blood. "F * ck, this old bastard dares to cheat!"
Tang En and Edward were also stunned.
That's right, Jean cheated.
He was indeed running naked, but … he f * cking cast an invisibility spell on himself!
Other than Dicarios, Azokamanda, and Eutinia, who else could see him!? With his cultivation, even Aiguin would not be able to find him if she did not pay attention!
After Jean ran a circle and came back, before he could speak, Angus pointed at his nose and yelled, "No! You old bastard cheated! I won't admit it! "
"You want to go back on your word!?"
Jean, who had put on his clothes, flew into a rage. "When we made a bet, we only said that the loser would run naked, but we did not say that invisibility spells were not allowed!"
"You, you are just quibbling!"
Angus was anxious. "When we made the bet, the default was that the loser was not allowed to use magic shielding spells!"
"You make it sound nice."
Jean sneered. "Do you dare say that you did not explicitly add this rule to give yourself room to dodge? Do you dare say that you won't use invisibility spells if you lose? "
Angus's eyes immediately became a little erratic.
That's right, both of them were old foxes, and they were both magicians. Since they made a bet, they would definitely pay special attention to this aspect. At the beginning, there was no explicit rule that the loser could not use magic, which meant that these two guys already had ulterior motives when they made the bet.
"So, give me the stuff!"
Jean stretched out his hand with a straight face. "Otherwise, don't blame me for falling out with you!"
"Fine, I'll give it to you. You really think I'm afraid of you!"
Angus muttered and gave half of the materials to Jean.
Jean accepted the materials with a smile. "If you're afraid, then you're afraid. Why are you still pretending?"
Although they were both legendary magicians, Angus's achievements in alchemy were higher. In terms of actual combat, he was not as good as Jean.
Tang En said helplessly, "Are you done? If you are, Angus, come over and let's discuss the itinerary. "
"Oh, right!"
Angus slapped his forehead. "Edward, where is the Hohnheim family?"
"In the Solant Kingdom," Edward said honestly.
Tang En frowned. The Solant Kingdom. This was a little troublesome.
"A little troublesome …"
Angus looked at Tang En. "Hide your identity."
After all, Tang En was the king of the Irus Empire. Now, many people knew what he looked like. If the news of him going to the Solant Kingdom was known, Klein Solant would be in big trouble.
That ambitious man had wanted to take over the Irus Empire for a long time. If he knew that Tang En had run to his territory, he would probably stop Tang En from returning to his country at all costs.
"No problem. Just change the name of the transformation spell. It'll be fine."
Angus thought for a moment and said, "That's true. Anyway, I haven't met him face to face, so it shouldn't be a problem. When do we leave?"
"I want to leave as soon as possible."
Tang En looked at Edward. "But it depends on Edward's arrangements."
