Chapter 502: Time in the Artisan work Shop (1/2)
Sam went to the workshop and first time ever, he was without any surveillance and that is because, the artisans don't like their methods being watched by others, so they have this special privilege.
He locked the door and entered the workshop and once again checking the room for any type of surveillance just to make sure, he finally puked out the divine dimension which has been in his stomach.
He learned that he couldn't enter the divine dimension while it was in his stomach, so he didn't access this at all.
Even the blueprints he gave to Rana are taken out with great difficulty after moving the crystal to his mouth without letting it out completely.
The first thing Sam did after taking out the divine dimension is entering it and taking a swig of the heavenly wine. He missed this wine so much and had to cover up the craving with the normal liquor.
He took a good chug of it before relaxing a bit. No matter how much freedom he has the situation is not that great, so being in a place in which he had absolute control is great.
Sam sat in the divine dimension library and thought about what to do now. He needs to get a hang of the city layout and his exact position within the city.
In case, Yodha doesn't turn out to be the person he thought he would be and his plan fails, Sam would have another plan that can aid his escape from this place.
But he doesn't have trackers that can work in this environment. Shadow mice will be affected by the poison as they are only Level-6. Even the Zoi termites cannot survive in this environment.
He has to find an alternative to his options so that he can get his information. He pretty much understood the situation of power. Since it is imperial capital, except for Yodha and his father, everyone else can only bow to the emperor and the imperial family.
As for some high-level nobles like the Golden Blaze family, they do control certain businesses. For example, the girl named Vasuki who has a pink hue on her scales belongs to a family that has business in medicine and pharmacy.
They have fields all over the nation and they cultivate any herb that could possibly be cultivated on the soils of this nation.
Yodha doesn't belong to a family that has a long history, his father is the one who won the titles all by himself and his father is of the same generation as the current emperor.
Since he learned of the powers of this city, the next thing he would need is a layout. It would come in handy just in case he needs to destroy the city or escape from it.
Of course, even though it is a backup plan, it has to be thorough.
But even after thinking long and hard, there is no immediate solution.
Shadow mice, termites, locusts don't work. If he uses any spells, he would be easily detected. As for making something new, time is of the essence.
After thinking long and hard, he couldn't help but take the bestiary once again. That is the only way out for him at this moment.
He started collecting the clues from what he learned all these days.
First and foremost, this is an area full of grasslands and the atmosphere is suitable for Purple flame horses, apart from that, he started recollecting the catalog of the meats that he could buy in the store.
He made a list of animals he ate and saw.
After making that list, he started rounding up the beasts that could live in similar environments and after marking them, he crossed out all the other beasts that don't have a single thing common to the remaining regarding the environments they naturally live in.
After creating this new list, he started reading up on the beasts once more, even though he has the information in his head, he read once again just to be sure.
After reading all the information, he compiled some data that could estimate the surrounding environmental conditions and some types of flora that could possibly exist in this place.
After that, he once again went through the beasitary and started looking for all kinds of beasts that could possibly live in the environmental conditions he estimated.
Even though they spent two days in the grasslands, it seems like some sort of hunting grounds with a select few beasts, so he doesn't have enough data from it, but still, he is pretty confident in his estimation.
After going through all the data, Sam finally found a feasible solution, but for that, he has to go out once, even if it is in a controlled situation, where he has no real freedom.
