Chapter 394: Flaws in the Plot

The autumn wind is gradually rising, and the weather is getting cooler.

Fast forward to November.

Just in November, the second volume of "comic future" was released, and the weekly sales exceeded 500,000 copies again.

This volume begins with Chapter 7. After the synthesis of beasts, Ska confronts Brother Elric, Roy, and Armstrong, the "big wrist alchemist" one after another, and finally loses.

Edward's right arm is destroyed, and the armor with Al's soul attached is severely damaged.

Because only Edward knows how Al and the armor are attached, Edward must repair his right arm before he can restore Al's armor. Therefore, he could only go to his outfitter Wen Li, the childhood sweetheart of the Elric brothers.

However, in this volume, Scar's identity is also revealed - Ishwar was once conquered and annexed by Amistoris (the country where the protagonist lives), and Scar is the survivor of the war 13 years ago. Xiuval people.

In this war, the National Alchemist acted as the executioner, and both Roy and Armstrong participated in the war.

Therefore, Scar's hatred for the national alchemist can be explained.

If the first volume is just a normal beginning, then the second volume has uncovered the tip of the iceberg.

In the war thirteen years ago, Armistorius won the victory without any suspense due to the participation of the national alchemist. But this also brings a series of questions, what is the truth of that war? Is there any connection with Brother Edward? That war was just a background introduction for Scar, or did it play a pivotal role in "Forged Steel"?

In addition, Edward also got the clue of refining the "Sage's Stone", and the relevant materials were placed in the first branch of the Central Library. This also made Edward decide to go to the first branch after his arm was healed.

The second volume is full of suspense,

Readers are also full of expectations for the plot of "Smelting Steel".

The serialization progress on "comic future" is faster than the single volume.

In the two episodes of "A Home with a Family Waiting" (Part 1 and Part 2), the comics explained for the first time why Edward lost his right arm-in exchange for Al's soul with his right arm.

And Wen Li stayed up all night for three nights, and finally completed Edward's mechanical armor, but because she was too tired, she forgot a screw.

"There is a foreshadowing here!"

Some readers immediately made an assertion after seeing this scene.

"Nonsense, it's up to you to say that? The structure of "Steel Refining" is very compact. If you use this paragraph to deliberately talk about a screw, there must be a foreshadowing."

As soon as the question was raised, it was refuted by other readers, and more readers had no desire to refute at all.

Such a simple foreshadowing, who can't see it?

However, most readers are very interested in another question-what is hidden in the research materials of "Philosopher's Stone"?

In anticipation of readers, the 45th issue of "comic future" was released.

Readers who bought the magazine turned to "Steel Refining" immediately, glanced at the title of this episode, and were overjoyed.

"It really is the 'Sage's Stone'! What is hidden in the 'Sage's Stone'?"

With doubts, readers can't wait to open the magazine.

When Edward arrived at the first branch of the library, he found that the first branch had become a ruin. Just a few days ago, a fire burned all the books. Fortunately, someone recommended a genius who was addicted to books and could remember Books I’ve read—the same ones that got me fired because I was so engrossed in them.

Relying on her super-strong memory, she silently wrote the information about the Philosopher's Stone that Edward needed.

Relying on these materials, Edward finally unlocked the secret of the 'Sage's Stone'. "

"Ahh...'The Philosopher's Stone' was actually made from living people."

"The doctor said to Edward, 'If you know, you will see hell'. If it is really made of living people, it will be really terrifying."

"Seeing this, my heart suddenly became heavy again. Whether to choose the Philosopher's Stone or choose life--it's so tangled."

"Steel Refining feels so heavy."

"So, quickly change the subject. I don't know alchemy. Why did the doctor write the research data as a recipe? Is it a mystery?"

"That's not so. As far as I know, this seems to be the habit of alchemists. Medieval alchemists like to hide their research with words, so that it is not so easy for others to know. Therefore, professionals must be required. Just read it."

"It turns out that this is the case. The setting of "Smelting Steel" is really elegant."

"Speaking of which, there is a plot that is too silly! Dr. Mark was afraid that others would know the truth about the Philosopher's Stone, so he used a recipe to hide it, but Edward directly told the two guards, it was too childish. Is Edward mentally handicapped!?"

"That's right. Edward acted too much like a child. He searched for this secret for several years, but he told others casually. Mr. Shen didn't think carefully."

"What's the lack of consideration? When Mr. Shen drew this paragraph, he absolutely didn't use his brain!"

"Snapped!"

During the break, Gao Hang went to Manjia.com and glanced at the readers' posts.

When he saw the latest message, he slapped the table angrily. Shen Xin, who had just arrived on the first floor to get coffee, and the other two assistants looked at Gao Hang in surprise.

"What's wrong?" Shen Xin asked puzzled.

"They said that Edward told the two guards directly, it was too mentally retarded. Moreover, they said that you didn't use your brain to draw this plot...Mr. Shen, don't be angry, I didn't say this, it was them..." Gao Hang just said After saying that, he quickly changed his words and pointed to the computer screen.

Shen Xin couldn't laugh or cry.

However, there is one thing, these readers are really right. When he was painting, he really didn't worry about the plot of the story. After all, Aunt Niu has perfectly expressed the story. But it would also be inaccurate to say that Aunt Niu didn't really think about it when she drew this scene.

At first, when Shen Xin saw this scene, she also had the same thought as the video barrage. This kind of plot is too imprecise, but if this plot is put in the whole story, it is not difficult to understand.

"This... Actually, this arrangement makes sense." Shen Xin explained.

Liu Rui and Hang Jian raised their heads and looked at Shen Xin curiously.

Shen Xin scratched her head, because the main job of the two of them was to be assistants, and they didn't have the idea of ​​creating comics alone, so Shen Xin didn't teach them too much.

Let's talk a little bit today, shall we?

"Actually, you should also be able to see it. These two guards know that it will lead to subsequent plots, such as the fifth research institute. If the two of them don't know the news, they will not inform Armstrong. Then, Armstrong will not Information about the Fifth Research Institute will be provided."

Since Chapter 18 and Chapter 19 have already been drawn, the three assistants can understand Shen Xin's words.
