Chapter 275 - Meteor Glass (1/2)
After about ten minutes, Evan finished talking through the list of items he needed. Dorlus nodded and calmly said,
”Okay, I hear you. Tools, gadgets, cages, decorations, poisons, potions, and so on won't be hard to get. It's all in our warehouse, you'll just have to pay. But, there is one problem.”
”Something wrong?” Evan asked. He understood that his order was extensive, and the items on his list were very hard to get in places. But he figured he could buy anything at Bloody Pearls.
”You said you wanted flasks made of material that could withstand the presence of rank three fluids, right?” Said Dorlus.
Evan didn't go into detail and tell Dorlus why he needed these flasks and that he would store his energy from Splash in them. Dorlus didn't need to know that, so Evan said that he needed the flasks to store the special liquid. Dorlus shouldn't have suspected anything. It was quite an ordinary order.
”Yes, don't you have any such flasks?” Asked Evan.
”There are, but they are extremely few, and all of them have already been pre-ordered, in a month, Bloody Pearls will have no more flasks like that. I can't sell them to you, you know. There are very few vampires in Darkfil experimenting with such dangerous and rare liquids. Creating such flasks is a rather time consuming and very expensive process, so we only create these flasks in small quantities or to order.” Dorlus pronounced.
Evan frowned. He hadn't expected the problem to be this particular issue.
<Hmm, actually, it was to be expected. Certain people would only need flasks like this at certain times. Getting third rank materials is not an easy task. But, I have to get those flasks>. Evan thought.
Very soon, Evan would break through his third Barrier and then move on to the stage - Two-Pointed Star. At that point, two very powerful Splashes would happen, and a huge amount of energy would come out of his body. He had to take advantage of this moment and not miss it by any means.
”Aren't there any options? Perhaps I could borrow these flasks until the new ones arrive? Or should I order them from you?” Asked Evan several questions at once.
Dorlus thought about it. He knew there would be problems with this thing, so he thought of several options beforehand. But, he was worried that Evan might not be able to handle it.
”Sure, you can order these flasks, but you'll have to wait a few months,” replied Dorlus.
”What's taking so long?” Evan frowned. He didn't have much time to do this experiment. Rave had only given him one year, after which Evan would need to join the Demonic Tree and interrupt the experiment for a while. He could not and, most importantly, did not want to wait that long.
”Third rank materials suitable for creating flasks are quite difficult to obtain. Usually, mages create a special group that goes for this material. In most cases, it's some crystals, special parts of monsters like transparent chitin, and others. Moreover, the group must consist of mages at the stage - Two-Pointed Star and that's as a minimum.”
