There weren't several things in this world that could threaten professional martial artists and alchemists. They were way beyond ordinary humans and could achieve things that weren't possible with science.

Professional martial artists were very powerful people who could take down huge numbers of trained fighters. They were way faster, stronger and nimble than an average human. They could be referred to as peak humans who had reached their full power.

But right now they were nothing. Their strength, speed and nimbleness was nothing compared to that of a master alchemist. They couldn't even withstand a fragment of his strength.

But then there was nothing they could do at the moment. If they didn't fight till their last breath Zoro was going to take the Dark Stone from them. And if that happened humanity would be doomed.

Something as dangerous as the stone could not be risked to fall into the hands of someone as dangerous as Zoro. It would bring about a very devastating effect which no o

    Perhaps it was the most basic instinct. Perhaps it was the desire to live. Perhaps there was still a lot of duty left to do. Perhaps it was the innate drive to survive.Mark didn't know the reason for it but he decided to run. He decided to escape from Zoro despite him killing all his comrades. He didn't want to wait and be killed by that madman.Life was too precious to be wasted. And five had been wasted already. He didn't want to be the sixth life to be wasted by Zoro. He had to escape from the master alchemist.And so he fled.His dark silhouette moved through the dark night, leaping nimbly from one roof to the other. At times he would jump down to the next apartment, running across its walls for a brief moment. Other times he would scale the pipes quickly.His movement was so quick and nimble, an average human being wouldn't be able to keep up with him at all.But he was up against a master alchemist. There was no way the man wasn't keeping up with him. Zoro was way faster than h

    Tap! Tap! Tap!Hurried footsteps sounded through the darkness, echoing loudly. They were moving too fast—way faster than an average human.Dark silhouettes could be seen running on the roofs of apartments. They were moving with so much fluidity. They almost seemed like the wind, blending with the shadows.The moon was shining very brightly, its radiance illuminating the world below. Except for the vehicles moving several feet below the apartments, there was silence. Not one person could be seen anywhere. Except of course for the silhouettes.They were six in number, all dressed in black outfits. They wore masks across their faces, katanas strapped to their backs. Their feet were cladded in boots which surprisingly turned out to be too light for them. One wouldn't be able to move so fluidly with these boots.One of these figures cladded in ninja outfits was running ahead of the group. There was a black object which he was holding. It was placed in a small leather pouch so one couldn't

    It hurts so badly...My mind hurts so badly...Jeffery regained his senses and found himself still standing in the alchemy room. The Philosopher's Stone was still in his hands. Although it was no longer shining brightly, it was still brimming with the mysterious essence."What was it called again?" he asked himself as he took a laboured breath.He was still recovering from the amount of knowledge that had been implanted into his mind by his predecessor, Lukas Flamel. It was a lot and his mind was currently in a daze. It was going to take some time for him to fully recover.Weakly he placed the Philosopher's Stone back in the compartment and pushed it to its right position. Experimenting on the stone was now out of question. He wasn't strong enough to do anything at the moment.After closing the compartment in the wall he turned around and let out a deep sigh. The Philosopher's Stone was still as mysterious as ever. But at least he had gotten something from it today.Other days he woul

    "Qi is the life force or spiritual energy that flows through all living things and the universe...""Meridians are invisible pathways in the body through which Qi flows...""The Dantian is the central energy reservoir located in the lower abdomen..."An ethereal voice filled Jeffery's ears, endowing him with more knowledge about alchemy. Several things which he didn't yet understood were instantly made clear to him.During that moment he felt that he was almost close to breakthrough. With enough training and cultivation he would be able to advance from the advanced level. He would be able to make a major breakthrough to become a master alchemist.But right now that didn't seem to matter. This was because Jeffery was no longer standing in the alchemy room. He didn't even seem to be in the physical world.He was currently floating in space—or what seemed like space. There were several resplendent stars all around him, each of them possessing a mysterious essence. It was the same essence

    The Captain's cunning smile was enough to send red signals into Jeffery's mind. He didn't need any other sign to know that there was something obviously off about the man.The way Captain Daniel had spoken to him about the Prescott family—the way he had warned him. It was obviously not something an ordinary police captain would say. Perhaps he was deeply affiliated with the Prescott family.But that doesn't give him the right to make that statement to me, Jeffery thought to himself. Why would he tell me that I won't always have the protection of the Stirling family?By now Daniel has averted his gaze and was busy doing something else. It seemed as if the small altercation just now had happened within Jeffery's mind. As if it was his hallucination.But Jeffery knew what he saw. And he was not going to forget that. He was going to get the female detective to investigate this police captain. He was now on his list of potential suspects.That detective told me she's going to give me resul
