Chapter 97 The Truth of the Ishval Civil War

Scar, who lost his right hand, kept twitching on the operating table, and the severe pain stimulated every nerve in his body.

Fortunately, the equipment in this laboratory in the dimensional world is quite complete.

With the help of Rast, Curtis quickly bandaged Scar's right hand.

Soon, all the Ishval souls in Scar's right hand were absorbed by Jonathan's Sage's Blade.

His arm turned into powder and disappeared.

"You can just rest here for the time being. As for the mechanical armor, I will find a technician to help you install it."

Seeing Scar gritting his teeth and enduring the pain, Jonathan directly let him rest in the dimension world for a while.

As for him, he was preparing to go to Lashubare, the holy land of mechanical armor.

There are countless excellent mechanical armor technicians gathered here, but Bina is unwilling to come to work here.

Jonathan had no choice but to recruit other mechanical armor technicians.

For example, Binaco's old mistress, Dominic.

Besides him, there are many mechanical armor technicians in La Shubare for Jonathan to choose from.

Lashubare, the situation here is much better than the martial law in Sendra.

However, wanted posters for Jonathan and Dante have been posted all over the streets of La Choparre.

Helplessly, Jonathan got a black robe with a hood, which looked similar to the robes worn by Jedi Knights in Star Wars.

With Scar and Curtis, the group came to a small alley in Lashubare.

There is an inconspicuous mechanical armor shop inside.

If you don't look carefully, you won't be able to find this place at all.

After entering the store, I saw a dark-skinned girl sitting against the wall doing nothing.

The two mechanical armored legs swung in the air.

Inside the counter, an old man in his fifties was adjusting a mechanical armor with a screwdriver.

When Jonathan and others came in, neither Dominic nor Panina spoke.

It seems as if it doesn’t matter whether there are guests or not.

"Mr. Dominic." Jonathan walked to the counter and knocked on the glass.

Dominic looked up and saw that Jonathan's face was covered by a hood.

"I don't talk to people who hide their true colors."

Good man, he really has a bad temper.

Seeing this, Panina covered her mouth and laughed.

Helplessly, Jonathan had to take off his hood.

Fortunately, these two people don’t usually care much about what’s happening outside, so they didn’t recognize that Jonathan was the wanted criminal who was said to have assassinated the president.

Jonathan placed the right arm that Binak had made on the counter.

Then he said to Dominic, "This is the mechanical armor made by Binaco Rockbell. I want you to help install it on this person."

When Dominic heard the name Binaco Rockbell, he trembled all over, as if he remembered some bad experience.

He stood up from the stool in an instant.

"Binaco!? Could it be the female leopard from Lizanbul!?" Dominic's voice was trembling.

It seemed to be telling a story of something horrible.

"That's right, it's the masterpiece of your old mistress." Jonathan said jokingly, looking at the old man in front of him.

"Don't talk nonsense! I'm not her lover! If she knew what you said, neither you nor I would see the sun tomorrow!"

Dominic's fear of Binaco is deeply rooted in his bones.

However, after Dominic knew that the arm on the table was Binaco's masterpiece, he couldn't help but come over and pick it up to take a closer look.

After a long while, he put down the mechanical armor, sighed and said, "As expected of Binac's work, its performance and structure are excellent in all aspects."

"Then why don't you ask Binaco to install it for him? Besides, this mechanical armor doesn't look like it was made for him."

"As far as I know, there is no way Binar could make such a simple mistake."

After saying that, Dominic looked at Jonathan, waiting for his explanation.

Jonathan clapped his hands and said, "As expected, you are a mechanical armor technician who can be compared with Binaco. You can tell so many things just from a mechanical armor arm."

Dominic remained unmoved by Jonathan's flattery and continued to look at Jonathan, waiting for his explanation.

"Indeed, this arm originally belonged to another person, but he no longer needs it. So we are adhering to the principle of recycling waste."

“So I wanted to install it on him.”

"And the reason why I didn't ask Binaco is because besides installing this arm, I have another request."

"I once asked Binaco, but she refused."

Dominic seemed a little interested in this request that was rejected by Binak, so he looked at Jonathan and asked, "What kind of request?"

“Work for me,” Jonathan said.

"Hahaha, it's such a request, no wonder she refused." Dominic replied with a smile.

"What about you, Mr. Dominic?" Jonathan asked, looking at Dominic.

"What's the benefit of giving you a job?" Dominic asked Jonathan, looking at him.

"Benefits?" After saying that, Jonathan looked at Panina who was watching the fun on the side.

"How about I help your daughter heal her broken limbs?" Jonathan asked Dominic.

Originally, Dominic wanted to reject Jonathan's proposal directly, just like Binaco.

After all, like Binaco, he doesn't have any ambitions. As long as he can make mechanical armor, it's enough.

But the condition proposed by Jonathan stunned him.

But after thinking for a while, he said with a dark face, "No need, the mechanical armor is her hands and feet. She is not sick and does not need treatment!"

"Mr. Dominic, you may not have understood. What I meant was to let her regain her hands and feet that originally belonged to her." Jonathan thought Dominic didn't understand what he meant.

"I know what you mean, but my answer is still the same, she doesn't need it."

Dominic has a very stubborn temper.

Seeing that the other party was indeed unlikely to work for him, Jonathan had no choice but to speak.

"My request will always be valid. If you ever figure it out, you can go to Sendra and find a man named Roy Mustang to contact me."

"Don't worry, I won't look for you." Dominic glanced at Jonathan with a bit of disdain in his tone.

Seeing Dominic's bad temper, Jonathan thought, no wonder he could become Binaco's mistress, their tempers are exactly the same.

Helplessly, Jonathan had to give up the idea of ​​recruiting the other party.

Afterwards, after Dominic's adjustments, Scar finally installed the mechanical armor made by Binaco. Looking at his new right hand, Scar finally let go of the burden in his heart.

Now, he can finally return to his tribe as Ishval.

No longer would he be considered an outcast by the people of Ishval because of the curse on his arm.

Among the Ishval people, those like Scar who have alchemy arrays engraved on their bodies and those who can use great techniques are regarded as exiles.

"Mr. Jonathan, thank you very much for your help." Scar stroked his new right hand like a baby.

While thanking Jonathan.

Scar is also a wonderful person. After I cut off his hand, he still thanked me.

Jonathan smiled and said, "Go back to your people."

Scar nodded and said to Jonathan again, "Thank you."

"By the way, I have a piece of advice for you. Take your people and leave Amesdoris as soon as possible. The country may be in turmoil recently."

After reminding Scar, Jonathan turned and left.

Looking at Jonathan's receding figure, Scar nodded and left.

Since it is impossible to recruit mechanical armor technicians, Jonathan can only choose to train his own.

In the largest bookstore in La Shubare, Jonathan cleared out all the books related to mechanical armor that could be bought there.

After doing this, Jonathan prepared to return to Sendra.

After dealing with Scar's right hand, Jonathan now has only one last thing to do in the world of Fullmetal Alchemist.

That is to make good use of the army of Amestorius and refine the Sage's Blade in his hand into its complete form.

Roy Mustang's office at Central Command.

Because the attempt to round up Jonathan and Dante in Genotamu failed.

Now Mustang has been ordered by the military to stay on standby at the Central Command temporarily.

Roy Mustang, who had just been reprimanded by his superior, was now full of anger.

Sitting down in his seat, Roy Mustang picked up Jonathan's portrait.

In anger, he snapped his fingers and burned Jonathan's portrait to ashes.

"Hey, hey, hey, do you hate me so much?" Jonathan's voice suddenly came in front of Roy Mustang.

This startled him.

Because the lights were off, Roy Mustang did not see Jonathan, who had been sitting on the sofa waiting for him to come back.

After quickly turning on the lights, Roy Mustang confirmed that the person coming was Jonathan, and the first thing he wanted to do was to take revenge and clear his name.

Then there is no more.

The situation was exactly the same as last time. No matter how he snapped his fingers, he couldn't produce a single flame.

After trying a few more times, Roy Mustang was sure that his efforts were in vain, so he looked at Jonathan and asked, "What is your purpose in looking for me? Do you want to continue to humiliate me?"

"Don't think so. I'm not as bad-tempered as you think." Jonathan shrugged.

Hearing this, Roy Mustang was immediately furious.

"This is not the place to talk, and I want to show you something." After saying that, Jonathan stood up.

After arriving at the door and connecting to the other dimension, he pushed open the door of Roy Mustang's office.

Watching this magical scene, Roy Mustang recalled the day when he first met this man.

"Hey, where is that place behind this door?" Roy Mustang asked Jonah.

"I have a name, Jonathan, not Hello. As for where the world behind this is, you will know it when you come in."

After saying that, Jonathan stopped looking at Roy Mustang and walked directly into the dimension world.

Roy Mustang hesitated for a moment, but still gritted his teeth and followed.

In the dimensional world, in the open space in front of the dimensional gate.

There were two coffins.

It was made of ordinary wood, and a man and a woman were lying inside.

These are the human bodies that Jonathan created by combining some basic elements of the human body and the Philosopher's Stone.

They look no different from humans and are completely formed according to the population structure.

But there is no brain and no nervous system.

Nor will they have a soul.

It can be said that these two bodies are just an empty shell.

Roy Mustang was a little confused as to why Jonathan would let himself watch such a thing.

Jonathan patted him on the shoulder and said, "Well, with these two things, I'm sure your status will be improved a lot."

"What do you mean?" Roy Mustang looked at Jonathan warily and said as he took a few steps back.

"Don't be so nervous." Jonathan walked up to him again and patted his shoulder.

Then he pinched his military rank and said, "Being a lieutenant colonel is really a waste of your talent. I think if you use these two bodies to deal with the task, I think you can at least be promoted to colonel."

"What is your purpose?" Roy Mustang didn't believe that Jonathan had no other purpose.

"Of course I have a goal, but your current military rank is too low. I can only achieve my goal with your help after you become the president." Jonathan said to Roy Mustang.

"So, what exactly do you want to do?" Roy Mustang asked again.

"Since you are so curious, I will tell you." Jonathan was helpless.

Although Roy Mustang is extremely power-hungry, on the other hand, he is also extremely upright.

"If I remember correctly, you also participated in the Ishval Civil War," Jonathan asked Roy Mustang.

Roy Mustang nodded.

A battle that could directly wipe out an entire region, one that Roy Mustang would never forget in his lifetime.

Forget those innocent looks.

"The ultimate purpose of the Ishval annihilation war is to drive the Ishval people into a desperate situation and then take advantage of the desperate people's desire for the Philosopher's Stone."

"They were forced to make the Philosopher's Stone. This is also the origin of the rumor that the Philosopher's Stone will bring misfortune to people."

"In fact, there has always been a group of people who have been creating all kinds of misfortunes, so that desperate alchemists want to create the omnipotent philosopher's stone."

"So it's not that the search for the Philosopher's Stone will bring misfortune, but every time the Philosopher's Stone appears, it is accompanied by misfortune."

"So, do you understand, Mustang?" Jonathan asked.

"You mean, the Ishval annihilation war was deliberately promoted by someone just to obtain the Philosopher's Stone?" Roy Mustang asked Jonathan with a bit of disbelief.
