Plunder the Heavens from American Comics

Chapter 90 Confrontation
When Jonathan returned to the Marvel world, he was worried that leaving Dante alone in the Fullmetal Alchemist world would cause irreversible consequences due to the time difference.

So when they went back, they let Dante, Last and the others return to the dimension world.

So at this moment, Dante didn't know what was going on.

"Laster, go and find out what happened." Dante stood at the window of Maguval's mansion, watching the confrontation between the townspeople and the army outside.

I have a bad feeling in my heart.

After some inquiries, Jonathan learned from Last that after he left, Maguwal's disappearance attracted the attention of the townspeople.

At this time, the army of Amestorius surrounded the town.

The reason is that they suspect that a criminal has escaped to Genotam, so they need the cooperation of the townspeople to thoroughly search the entire town.

As the saying goes, the IQ of a group is negative.

So the residents of the town immediately thought that this was a military conspiracy.

Indeed, after years of war, the reputation of the Amestorian army had long become infamous among the people.

Therefore, the townspeople unanimously believed that it was Maguwal who developed the technology to create the Philosopher's Stone, which made the military covet it.

This was an excuse for him to take advantage of the opportunity to seize the research materials in Maguwal's home.

Some townspeople also boldly speculated that Maguwal had been secretly arrested by the military.

As a result, the conflict between the military and civilians can be said to be imminent.

Jonathan didn't expect that just killing a scumbag would cause such a big reaction.

"What do we do now?" Dante asked Jonathan.

"Do you know how many people the military has sent here?" Jonathan didn't need to think about it, he knew that the military was coming for him and Dante.

"It's a team of a hundred people, led by Lieutenant Colonel Roy Mustang." Last told the information he had obtained.

"There are only a hundred people, so it's not worth it to refine it." Jonathan's first thought was whether he could refine the other party into the Philosopher's Stone.

"Roy Mustang?" Jonathan smiled.

"When was this guy transferred from the Eastern Command?"

But after thinking about it, Jonathan felt that it was about time. At this point, the two brothers Edward and Douding should have embarked on the journey to take the exam.

So normally, Roy Mustang should be in Sendra at this moment.

But it was obvious that he had changed the plot, which triggered a butterfly effect. He had never expected that the military would send him to attack him.

Jonathan actually didn't particularly dislike Roy Mustang, an idealistic and pragmatic man.

On the contrary, I have an appreciative attitude towards him.

After all, many people know that Amestris may collapse at any time.

But they all chose to wait and see.

After experiencing the cruelty of the Ishval Civil War, Roy Mustang was not discouraged, but instead was inspired to climb up by any means necessary.

Thus saving the country by changing it from within.

Although it was only after the persuasion of his good friend Mas Xiuz that he woke up from the regret after the war and made up his mind to do something for the country.

But if it were most people, they would not choose this thorny road like him.

"You guys wait here, I'm going to meet Roy Mustang." Jonathan turned and said to Dante.

Then he jumped directly from the window, and used telekinesis to support his body and flew up.

The entrance to the town of Jenotram.

Roy Mustang felt a headache when he saw the agitated townspeople. After asking his men to investigate, he also found out the specific reasons why the townspeople were like this.

But obviously, those were just their own over-imagination.

He brought the team here just to search for the wanted criminal.

A while ago, he was transferred back to Sendra.

Then we received the news that the President had been assassinated.

In an instant, Roy Mustang smelled the scent of credit.

Therefore, he immediately confirmed the news with his superior, Lieutenant General Guraman.

Afterwards, he obtained from Guraman the sketches of Jonathan and Dante, as well as of Rust and Guradonni.

After seeing Jonathan's sketch, Roy Mustang applied directly to Guraman to join the search party.

He said that he would personally capture the assassin who tried to assassinate the president and bring him to him.

Lieutenant General Gulaman was very pleased to see that his grandson-in-law was so motivated.

100 soldiers were immediately assigned to Roy Mustang's command.

"The army's running dog! Release Maguwal!" The crowd was very angry.

Rotten eggs and rotten vegetable leaves kept being thrown at the army.

Many of them were targeting Roy, the national alchemist who led the team.

As a wartime obligation, it is the duty of national alchemy to participate in the war and use the alchemy that serves the people to kill the enemy on the battlefield.

Therefore, many people regarded the State Alchemist as a lackey of the military.

Roy Mustang was already accustomed to such names, but he would naturally not take a good look at the rotten eggs thrown at him.

With a snap of his fingers, the rotten vegetable leaves and rotten eggs that were about to hit him on the head were instantly burned to ashes under the explosive alchemy of flame alchemy.

Jonathan, suspended in mid-air, watched with great interest.

Although Roy Mustang's alchemy was very powerful, he could not scare away the excited townspeople.

In fact, this is also the reason why Roy Mustang is too merciful. If it were any other general, he would only need to shoot them.

Can solve all problems.

Even if all the townspeople resisted together, how could they, unarmed, possibly be a match for 100 fully-equipped soldiers?

As for the indiscriminate killing of civilians, it is nothing new in the army of Amestris.

Even their superiors have been acquiescing in this kind of thing happening.

After all, all their killings were for the purpose of refining the Philosopher's Stone. Thinking about it this way, Dante's sins were indeed quite serious.

Because of her own desire for immortality, Amestorius turned into a war machine, and the number of people who died at her hands is estimated to be tens of millions, if not hundreds of millions.

However, even such a ruthless character has now become his slave.

Jonathan thought.

Then, seeing that the first chemical weapons attack had failed, the townspeople quickly organized another attack.

The shells were still made of rotten eggs and vegetable leaves, and some unscrupulous people even mixed a few smelly socks in them.

Just like before, when Roy Mustang was about to burn these chemical attacks to ashes, an accident happened.
