Chapter 178 Assassin Brotherhood

Facing the words of the hooded man, Perficott raised his eyebrows, then nodded and said: "If you are talking about the perfect life form or the Philosopher's Stone, you have indeed found it."

As the crowning masterpiece of his parents, Purficott clearly understands his existence as a perfect living being.

This is the highest achievement in the field of human body training, allowing a life to reach the most perfect state. It is the highest goal pursued by all alchemists who study human body training, and the Philosopher's Stone is what all alchemists are striving for. The pursuit of the highest achievement.

And now, in this room, there are two masterpieces that are the highest achievement for alchemists.

From this point forward, the Hooded Man does indeed find the legacy of Purficott's parents, the crowning achievement they left behind.

"I have to say that Mr. Brandlis is a great alchemist. Together with your mother, he completed the two highest achievements of alchemy." The hooded man's tone was still calm. There was no expression on his face, but Purficott could still hear the reverence and regret he expressed in his words: "Can you please tell me how your father died?"

Purficott was always wary of the hooded man in front of her, but when the man asked about her father, she still answered the question out of respect.

"He died in an accident while refining the Philosopher's Stone. At that time, the alchemy ceremony went berserk. He and his mother died trying to save me." Purficott's voice was also emotionless, but this matter was still something she didn't want to do. Memories brought up.

So after answering this question, Purficott looked at the hooded man and asked him: "So what is your purpose? If you are my father's friend, then I am very happy that you came to pay homage to him, no I am willing to entertain you if you are malicious.

But if you are here for the purpose of plundering my father's inheritance, or if you want to use the perfect life form and the Philosopher's Stone for research, then I will have no choice but to turn you into stone. "

As she spoke, she touched the Midas touch on the oak desk, and a gray-white line spread from the table in front of Purficott toward the hooded man.

The hooded man's eyes couldn't help but change. Of course he could see that this was the flesh-to-flesh petrification that Perficott's mother was very good at, and Perficott had obviously mastered this technique.

He didn't dare to neglect it. If he really fell into this trick and didn't have an alchemist with enough strength to unlock it for him, he would really turn into stone for the rest of his life.

So he hurriedly explained: "Please don't get me wrong, the purpose of my coming is just to investigate the cause of your parents' death."

Hearing what the hooded man said, the extending gray-white thin line stopped, but did not retract. It just spread around the hooded man's body like a poisonous snake waiting for an opportunity to attack, like an arc. He gathered around the spot.

"Investigating the cause of death of my parents? They have been dead for almost four years. Isn't it too late for you to investigate now?" Purficott showed a suspicious look. Although she felt that the person in front of her was not lying, she also I don't think this is true.

"Perhaps the way I entered caused you to misunderstand, but I really didn't mean any harm." The hooded man explained sincerely, and also explained to Purficott: "I accepted a piece of clothing five years ago. A special mission went to the Eastern Kingdom, and it was not until recently that the mission was completed and returned to Langton. I learned about the death of your parents, so I came here to pay homage to my old friend. But Brandless Manor was empty, and there were still nearby people outside. The Guards were stationed, which puzzled me.

I was worried that there was something wrong with the death of your parents, so I sneaked into the manor.

As a result, I didn't expect you to come back at this time, which caused unnecessary misunderstandings. "

Listening to the hooded man's words, Purficott nodded slightly. This explanation made sense, but she did not believe the hooded man in front of her.

She just stood up with a cold face, always holding her Midas Philosopher's Rod in her hand, and the Midas Philosopher's Rod was still maintaining the gray and white line of flesh and blood, and she had no intention of letting down her guard.

"Let's assume that what you said is true, but how can you prove that you are really my father's friend and not an assassin hiding next to him?" Purficott looked at the hooded man's costume and kept wondering. There is a feeling of seeing something sweet or spicy.

However, the hooded man nodded very simply and replied affirmatively: "I am indeed an assassin, an assassin working for the Assassin Brotherhood."

"Assassin Brotherhood? You wouldn't say that your enemies are the Templars. They want to use ancient relics to rule all mankind, right?" Purficott felt a strong sense of déjà vu, and even felt that this guy only needed the next answer. "Yes", she went to the Mediterranean to dig for underwater ruins overnight!

Fortunately, the other party expressed doubts: "What are the Templars? A secret organization of the Knights Association? But I remember that the secret organization they formed should be called the Black Knights? And they are just royalists and do not want to rule. It means the world, and there are no ancient relics.”

"Really? Maybe I remembered it wrong." Purficott felt a cold sweat on his forehead that didn't exist, but he still asked the hooded man in front of him: "If you heard me right, did you mention The Assassin Brotherhood that arrived should be targeting the Knights Association, so you... and my father are going to overthrow the royal family? Does my mother know about this?"

With Purficott's intelligence, even if her mind suddenly wandered, she still quickly discovered the key to the hooded man's words.

This surprised her. Her father was actually related to an organization that intended to overthrow the royal rule, and her mother was a close friend of the royal princess.

This relationship is a bit too exciting. How did the two of them get married and give birth to themselves?

Purficott felt that her brain was running out, and she also discovered a key problem: "My father has been dead for almost four years. If he has contact with your Assassin Brotherhood, your organization has been Didn't you send someone to take a look? Do you have to wait until you come back from the Eastern Kingdom to investigate the cause of my father's death? "

"It's a long story, but your parents are aware of the existence of the Assassin Brotherhood. In some ways, they are even one of the founders of the Assassin Brotherhood." The hooded man said something. The shocking fact, he also explained: "The Assassin Brotherhood did send people to investigate at the beginning, but because you drove away all the servants in the manor, leaving only the loyal old housekeeper, the Assassin People from the fraternity are not easy to get close to, so I don't trust their investigation results.

And I also hope to pay tribute to my old friend, so I sneaked into Brandless Manor. If you have offended me, I am willing to do something for you to repay you. "
