Me! The Strongest Alchemist!

At this moment, Bruce was enduring the pain of his soul being burned. The pain was indescribable. It was a piercing pain.

He loved his people deeply, but his mighty power was not something a mortal body could withstand. Therefore, when he used his power, he would definitely be counterattacked by his power.

“Ahhhh!!!”

Bruce roared at the sky, his hair messy. He locked his hands on a Royal Naga that was charging at him and grabbed the head of the Royal Naga with one hand, not letting it move at all.

Mas estimated that Bruce had the strength of an intermediate Level 7 professional. He actually easily locked the advanced Level 6 Royal Naga in place…

Bruce extended his charred right hand behind his back and found that there was no other weapon that could be used. He gritted his teeth and saw that the blood-red steam on his body was dense and boiling again. The blood steam seemed to have started to liquefy into a Blood Boiling Spear that pierced into the Big Murloc’s heart.

The Big Murloc, which was still roaring and struggling, immediately fell silent. It seemed to have reached its limit. After Bruce did all of this, he spat out a mouthful of blood.

“Is that so…? Am I reaching my limit? I can’t accept this…”

Before he finished speaking, Bruce, who had been burned into a flaming man, was pierced through the heart by the Royal Naga who had rushed over.

Seeing Bruce die tragically, the remaining Spear Legion was immediately infuriated. However, as beginner professionals, they were only killing one-sidedly when facing the remaining Red Crystal Gargoyles, Royal Nagas, and the Frost Murloc.

It was as if they had the will to kill a thief but was unable to reverse the situation…

Half an hour later, the massacre ended. Blood dyed the entire forest red. As for the pikemen that escaped, Mas did not choose to let the Red Crystal Gargoyle attack again. He was not a bloodthirsty person. Mas respected Bruce’s actions and did not kill him.

Facing the Dark Forest filled with corpses, Mas considered for a moment and planned to order the alchemical creatures to bury them on the spot.

As enemies, they were indeed outstanding and worthy of respect. They should not be eaten by passing beasts.

At this moment, Mas was looking at the fiery red pearl that he had obtained from Bruce. Although he had long been mentally prepared, he was still shocked when he saw the effect of the fiery red pearl.

This was because the effects of this fiery red pearl were too powerful.

[Energy Shield Pearl (Six-star): An extremely complicated alchemy product that can absorb magic power and store it. When it is attacked by magic, it will automatically release the magic shield.]

“As expected, this thing blocked the attack of the rune turret!”

“It seems that the alchemy masters in this world are indeed extraordinary. They can actually refine this!”

After the battle in the Dark Forest, there was joy and there was sorrow.

Although the losses of the alchemical creatures had exceeded Mas’ expectations, it was fortunate that the Trun Kingdom had been reconstructed in this battle. The Trun Kingdom had suffered heavy losses and would not have the strength to find trouble with him for at least five years. Furthermore, he had obtained a treasure, an Energy Shield Pearl.

Kehr, who had fled back to the country, and the devastated soldiers reported what had happened in the Dark Forest to King Louis VI. After learning that the army had been defeated, Louis VI was angry, afraid, and heartbroken.

Fury was because Bruce, Kehr, and these Spear Legion failed to live up to expectations and buried a large amount of the kingdom in the Dark Forest.

These were the ace troops of the Trun Kingdom. So many had died, and the money and time spent on nurturing them, how could Louis VI not feel his heart ache?

He was afraid because he had learned from the soldiers how powerful the alchemical creature that Mas had summoned was.

Especially the fear on the soldier’s face, he could not imagine what had happened at the scene. However, he knew an ironclad truth from the moment Bruce risked his life to activate the sacrifice and died in battle. The alchemical creatures described by the soldiers must be extremely powerful. Otherwise, the well-trained soldiers would not be so afraid.

His heart ached because he had bought the Energy Shield Pearl from an alchemist with gold coins that he had spent on Bruce.

The reason why he gave the Energy Shield Pearl to Bruce was to allow him to withstand the attack of the rune turret. Moreover, even if the magic power in the Energy Shield Pearl was exhausted, it could be recovered after being placed for a period of time. That was why he handed it to Bruce.

But now, the Energy Shield Pearl had been lost!

The ace pikemen suffered heavy casualties.

Of the three commanders, only the most disappointing Kehr was left, and they did not even capture the priceless sea demon.

Louis VI was heartbroken. While he was heartbroken, his hatred for Mas was even stronger. At the same time, he was slightly affected by Kehr, who had escaped alone.

“What a piece of trash. You actually cowered from the battle and retreated without a fight. You’ve disgraced our Trun Kingdom! Didn’t your father teach you to respect martial arts since young?! Even if you die, you must die like Bruce and die as an arrogant warrior!

If your sister wasn’t the queen, you would have died. Kehr, you should know what happens to deserters. Leave first…”

Louis VI waved Kehr off, saving himself the trouble of watching.

The unforgivable Kehr was wild with joy and scrambled out of the hall.

As the king of the Trun Kingdom, the supreme ruler of the kingdom, his words carried weight. No one could disobey him and no one dared to openly go against him.

The last time he had suffered a loss was when he had been defeated in battle with the Storm Empire, causing him to become a vassal of the Storm Empire now. This was a thorn in Louis VI’s heart. Now that ten years had passed, it was the first time that he had suffered such a loss. If he did not take revenge, it would definitely not be his style.

“Damn it, Mas, forgive me for being a son! If I don’t take revenge, it will be hard to appease the hatred in my heart!”

“Everyone, retreat. Without my orders, no one can see me!”

“Yes, Your Highness!”

The guard at the side retreated out of the hall respectfully and guarded the door. His heart was as if it had been pardoned.

Compared to staying in the hall, they were more willing to stay outside at this moment. After all, as the monarch, Louis VI was furious. They might even frown if they stood beside him.

After everyone left, Louis VI sat on the dragon throne for a long time as if he had made a decision. After a long silence, he stood up expressionlessly and walked to the wall behind the palace. He placed his hand on a brick on the wall and pressed it hard.

A hidden door opened and he hurried inside.
