That guy had used a philosopher<unk>'s stone, and only such a treasure could offset the cost of using alchemy.

However, when he found that severed hand, the ring was already long gone.

Seeing the scene, Edward Elrich frowned.

He had clearly seen the ring during the battle.

How could it suddenly disappear? This made him feel that something was off.

But when his gaze fell on the archbishop's corpse, he didn't notice anything unusual.

This made him let out a sigh.

Brother Alance Elrich, who had been hiding with Sem during the battle, approached his brother's actions and called out with concern, "Al, did you see the guy's ring just now?" Edward Elrich, still feeling somewhat unwilling, quickly turned around to ask his brother, "No, I didn't see it.

The battle just now was too chaotic.

Plus, there was so much smoke and dust.

The ring might have fallen somewhere.

" Looking at Edward Elrich's anxious yet unwilling expression, Alance Elrich scratched his helmet and said, "The battle just now was too chaotic.

Plus, with so much smoke and dust, even the keenest eyes wouldn't notice a small ring, right? Let's keep looking.

That should be the philosopher stone we've been searching for.

" Hearing Alance Elrich's words, Edward Elrich didn't hesitate to start searching again.

However, this time, he didn't forget to call his brother.

Alance Elrich hearing this also didn't dare to hesitate and quickly began to search inch by inch on the ground watching the somewhat comical scene of the two rose standing in the corner was staring blankly at everything in front of her due to the death of the archbishop because the lover she had always wanted to revive had also vanished with the archbishop as death not knowing how long it had been.

Alance Elrich finally noticed Seme's anomaly.

He quickly stood up from the ground and walked over to the hollowedeyed Sem to express his concern.

Mis, are you all right? Dead people really can't be revived.

Hearing this, Rose turned her hollow eyes towards Alance Elrich.

She asked a question that left Alance Elrich frozen in place.

I'm sorry.

Upon hearing this, Alance Elrich fell silent for a moment and ultimately said nothing.

They had also attempted the alchemy of reviving the dead when they were young.

However, that time had cost both brothers a heavy price.

So now when discussing this issue, Alance Elrich couldn't help but think of their childhood.

Alance Elrich is still desperately searching for the ring.

But Edward Elrich still hasn't found out where it went.

He couldn't help but want to turn back and ask his brother.

However, seeing Rose's dazed expression, the words he just spoke were suddenly stuck in his throat, and he furrowed his brows as he walked over.

What's wrong? After walking in front of the two, he glanced at Rose's appearance and couldn't help but look at his brother to inquire.

Alance Elrich, seeing his brother's troubled expression, didn't hide anything and shared Rose's earlier question.

Chapter 232.

King Bradley.

After hearing the details from Alance Elrich, Edward Elrich's expression also turned grim.

Looking at Rose's appearance, which seemed to be filled with despair, he thought for a moment before trying to offer some words of comfort.

However, seeing the girl's state, Edward Elrich realized that she might not be able to accept his advice right now.

So, after saying a few words, he stopped.

He then turned around to search for the already vanished inferior philosopher<unk>'s stone.

Observing his brother's frustrated expression, Alance Elrich didn't say much and continued to help his brother search.

After searching the entire area and still failing to find the missing ring, they ultimately shook their heads and resignation and gave up.

After that, the two took Rose and left the place.

Once the three disappeared, the corpse of the archbishop that had been lying on the ground suddenly moved.

He sat up, glancing at the direction in which the three had left.

He then pulled the earth spike out of his chest and tossed it to the ground.

His form began to shift, transforming into a boy with a head of fluffy long hair.

What is that just now? It definitely wasn't an attack from the human pillar.

Otherwise, he wouldn't be looking for that inferior philosopher stone.

He walked over to his severed arm, picked it up, and placed it where his arm had been.

The next moment, something miraculous happened.

The severed arm bizarrely reattached itself.

However, looking at his arm, Envy's expression turned puzzled.

Scenes from the battle with Edward Elrich flashed through his mind.

He had basically figured out the opponent's attacks.

If it weren't for needing to play the role of the Archbishop, Edward Elrich would have been no match for him at all.

But even so, he found it easy to dodge the opponent's attacks.

Yet, somehow, his arm had been severed.

What puzzled him the most was that he had no idea how his arm had been cut off.

This made him start to suspect whether a third party had intervened in the earlier battle.

With the suspicion, his mind instantly became active.

It was worth noting that the reason he was here in the first place was entirely due to the sudden disappearance of lust and gluttony.

And now he was being attacked by unknown individuals.

These clues were quickly piecing together in his mind.

Interesting.

I didn't expect there to be hidden forces in a mistress that we don't know about.

I want to see who you really are.

After realizing that there was a hidden force in a mistress, Envy's face showed not a hint of despair, but rather an expression filled with interest.

Completely unaware that Ysuki had already been exposed.

He was still on the train explaining his understanding of magic to Cecilia.

However, at that moment, the high-speed train suddenly emitted a loud screeching sound.

The entire train began to shake.

This left Yuki and the others stunned.

Yizuki quickly unleashed his observation haki to see what was going on, but upon looking, Yiuki's mouth twitched violently.

Previously, Yizuki thought he was just having good luck.

But it turned out that it wasn't luck at all.

It was bad luck because through his observation hockey, Yizuki saw a group of people with weapons intercepting the train.

There was no need to guess.

Yizuki already knew who those guys were.

Yizuki, what happened outside? Kisaragi Chitos also looked away from her book and towards the train window.

Unfortunately, she couldn't see anything and turned to Yizuki for an answer.

Robbery.

Yizuki spat out the three words irritably.

Upon hearing this, the expressions of the girls turned strange.

To be honest, they had never encountered such a thing in their lives.

Do we need to take action? Kasaragi Chos asked.

Let's wait and see.

If the people on a train can handle it, we can just watch the show.

If those guys can't handle it, Yiuki sighed.

I originally wanted to keep a low profile.

Hearing this, Yizuki felt helpless.

He had planned to keep a low profile while buying some books on the way to Central City.

Now that this incident had occurred, it seemed they couldn't keep a low profile anymore.

Of course, they could abandon the train and advance using shadow clones, but that would make their identities very suspicious.

If they travel by train, they would leave a trace along the way.

and later in Central City, they wouldn't attract too much attention, but if they suddenly appeared, it would be too suspicious.

This was not friendly for Yiuki's upcoming actions.

Although, with Yuki's strength, infiltrating the National Central Library wouldn't be a problem.

He had no idea where those precious books were stored.

Having spent time in the O'Hara Library, Yizuki knew that when it came to finding books in a library, it was best not to search for them himself, but rather ask the librarian.
