Chapter 252

Of course Lin Jie knew about the Philosopher's Stone.

As a folklorist who also has a little research on occultism, it is impossible for him not to understand such a representative ultimate pursuit in alchemy.

The obsession with the Philosopher's Stone is to those alchemists in the West, just like the Chinese Taoist priests' pursuit of the elixir of life or various elixir.

People always hope to refine a substance that can realize all wishes, but in fact, apart from this thing, any messy things can be refined.

In some sense, it is actually a wish come true...

And in Azir, the alchemist, the Philosopher's Stone, etc., are also said to be the same, but no one has actually made them.

It is worth mentioning that the Philosopher's Stone is also called the fifth element... that is, ether. Lin Jie often feels that these two things may be two forms of one.

Thinking of this, Boss Lin frowned, looking thoughtful.

Since Jerome is the inner ghost of the Road of Fire Sword placed in the Truth Society, he has some guesses in his heart.

The path of the Fire Sword is not easy.

This organization is a mysterious organization that attempts to find the power left over from the mythical era in the past. It has great ambitions and strength—judging from Lin Jie’s experience of beating Xiaomi last time, they may have mastered some extraordinary power, but they are not very strong.

Otherwise, how could Lin Jie, who has learned basic skills from Bai Yin for several months, be able to beat a real superhuman.

But there is no doubt that their power must be very strong for ordinary people.

So assuming that there are several other "angels" who are still alive in the road of the fire sword-to be honest, Lin Jie has always wanted to complain about where the bible is from this group of secondary diseases, but it is a pity that Gabriel died too fast, and Xiaomi ran away. It was too fast and didn't give him this chance - it was equivalent to Michael's level.

Then the existence of this organization is enough to cause great harm to the entire Nuojin, and it is a bomb that may explode at any time.

Not to mention, this organization actually played two-five-year-old tactics, and planted ghosts in various forces.

Needless to say, the Dome Church is an evil force completely controlled by the Road of Fire Sword.

Qi Li just found out that younger brother Congreve who provided contraband for the Road of Fire Sword some time ago, and she doesn't know what's going on now.

Now the Truth Society, a scholar organization, has also been infiltrated...

It is not difficult to imagine that there is a high probability that the Nuojin police represented by Joseph and Claude also have ghosts from the Road of Fire Sword.

I am in the open, and the enemy is in the dark. The situation is actually very grim.

But fortunately, the inner ghost of the Truth Society has been pulled out, but I don’t know if this is the only one...

But having said that, Andrew was really ruthless, and he killed people directly.

Boss Lin thought about it. After all, Jerome directly sent an assassin to attack a little girl like Prima. He must be a ruthless person. Under fierce resistance, it is possible to kill him helplessly.

Still getting back to the topic, it is normal for an organization like the Road of Fire Sword to pursue extraordinary power to have research on the Philosopher's Stone.

Judging from the information contained in the book he borrowed, even the Truth Society itself has studied the Philosopher's Stone.

"This Philosopher's Stone is probably not really a touchstone or an elixir of life, but a solid ether condensed in a certain way."

Lin Jie rubbed his chin, thinking so.

His construction of dreams is achieved by controlling the ether. Assuming he can skillfully use the method of bringing dreams into reality, it is not impossible to change reality as he wants.

Therefore, it coincides with the characteristics of the Philosopher's Stone.

"Only the Road of the Fire Sword has the ability to really make the Philosopher's Stone, so the Stone of the Philosopher left on the scene shows another possibility, that is, the Road of the Fire Sword started in advance, in order not to reveal the information , directly kill it internally."

Thinking of this, Lin Jie raised his head and asked, "How did Jerome die?"

how did you die...

Isn't this a question you should ask yourself?

Prima slandered in her heart, but she still answered honestly: "He was killed by someone. When the people from the Truth Society found out, he had already died in his office."

That's right.

Lin Jie nodded, and he said that it was unrealistic for Andrew to kill people directly. It turned out that the Road of Fire Sword took the first step.

The Road of the Fire Sword seems to be very vigilant, it's really not easy... He asked Andrew to go back and bring Jerome here, but the man died when he turned around, and the clues were basically broken.

After all, there is an existence with extraordinary power like Xiaomi, so it should not be underestimated!

Lin Jie asked again: "What about your sister?"

Prima lowered her head a little bit disappointed: "My sister's whereabouts are still unknown..."

Lin Jie comforted her a few words, and then asked him to tell Andrew that there must be more than one insider in the Truth Society. The person who killed Jerome was probably also an insider of the Truth Society.

In addition, the Philosopher's Stone can be sent over immediately, and he wants to study it.

...

The other side of the communicator.

Listening to the narration by the thin female voice, Andrew replied respectfully, not daring to neglect at all.

After a while, he hung up the communicator and looked towards the very busy office not far away.

Jerome's body... Oh, there is only one piece of skin left. Jerome's skin is only being shipped out now, because the room needs to be identified for spell traces, and it is necessary to ensure the integrity of the scene as much as possible.

All the irrelevant people were watching the excitement from the outside, including Andrew, the vice president.

But now it is Diamond who is organizing the staff.

Andrew was hiding in the corner at the moment, reporting the current situation to the owner of the bookstore, nodding in agreement.

"I will send you the Philosopher's Stone as soon as possible. Do you have any other orders? Oh, well... Margaret's whereabouts are still being investigated. Since there is still an inner ghost, I am afraid it is hidden even deeper. There are some suspects, but I can't act justifiably until my rights go further."

Andrew vaguely heard Boss Lin's voice on the opposite side, and then Prima said, "Be careful."

He immediately understood, and understood that this air conversation was coming to an end.

The next person to talk to him was Prima.

Andrew's eyes flickered, and he suddenly said, "Prima... Your name is Prima, right? After the injury is healed, are you interested in taking your sister's place temporarily?"

Prima was taken aback, and Andrew continued: "Although it's not very good to say this, but your sister is probably in danger, and maybe she won't be able to continue to hold this position after she comes back. Now that Jerome is dead, the upper echelon of pharmacy It's just vacated—don't you want to do more for Boss Lin?"

As he spoke, there was a hint of enthusiasm in his eyes.

Among the scholars watching the lively discussion on the other side, President Maria's nephew Hood stood behind the crowd and looked at Andrew thoughtfully.

When Andrew said this, he just raised his head and met his gaze.

The four eyes met, and suddenly, a kind of connection in the dark made them tremble suddenly.
