Traveling Across Worlds, Starting with The Irregular at Magic High School - Chapter 160
"So, the place you want my help with is providing Divine Blood?"
Loki's lips twitched. As soon as William opened his mouth, she knew why he needed her help with the research.
"Can't you change your research direction?"
This is a reasonable request from my child who wants to improve, and I don't want to refuse it.
She had heard about the amount of raw materials required to research a magical item, even if she hadn't seen it with her own eyes.
Moreover, the drug William is researching is a project that many others have failed at before, requiring even more raw materials.
She felt that if she agreed, she would inevitably become a blood donor, a tragic reality.
"Sorry, all I want to do right now is make this thing!"
William's denial ruthlessly shattered Loki's illusions.
"Don't look so gloomy. If I actually manage to make it, it will benefit you too."
"What benefits!"
Loki said, somewhat annoyed.
"You see how much suffering you endure before and after each expedition, don't you! Once this item is finished, you can store the Divine Blood beforehand!"
"You look so pale. You must have been in a lot of pain after losing so much blood!"
"But you can't guarantee you'll succeed!"
Loki said quietly, "It's not that no one has researched this before, but with so many people failing, I didn't have high hopes for William!"
"I think I'm quite confident!"
"Yeah!"
Loki sighed softly, looking at the confident smile on William's face, coupled with the miracles that kept happening to William.
"Five drops of Divine Blood a day, that's all you can get, understand?"
After pondering for a while, Loki held up five fingers and waved them in front of William's eyes.
"Good!"
William readily agreed; five drops of Divine Blood, though a little less, were still barely enough.
Moreover, he doesn't live in the laboratory to conduct experiments all the time. If you take away the time he spends studying magic and gun skills, and the time he spends going to the Dungeon, then he's fine.
The time available for research in the lab is only three or four hours, and five drops of Divine Blood are enough.
"Then I'll head out first. I'll leave the matter of the Divine Blood to you, Loki!"
After the business was finished, William stood up and left. And according to his calculations, Ais should have explained everything to them by now.
"I'm done updating, next person hurry up and go in, Loki can't wait."
William, who had just opened the door, was making up a lie with a straight face when Loki, who was resting inside the shrine, sneezed.
"Nonsense!"
Gareth laughed and didn't believe William's nonsense at all, then opened the door and went inside.
"If everyone is free, please wait a moment for Gareth, then we'll go to the conference room to discuss something."
Ten minutes later, in the meeting room of the "Loki Familia".
The weakened Loki and all his Familia leaders, along with William, were gathered here.
"There are two things to discuss today. One is William, whether your method will work on level 6 adventurers."
Finn sat at his desk, resting his chin on his hands, and began to speak.
"I'm not sure about that either, but I don't think there should be any problem!"
William shook his head and continued.
"But there's another problem, which is the materials. Just making a weight that can suppress Ais's abilities is already very difficult."
"Making a device that can withstand the weight of a level 6 character would be difficult to achieve in terms of both convenience and materials."
"Really!"
Riveria chimed in, saying that the three leaders were all seasoned adventurers, and they had already guessed about the issues William raised.
"Fine, whatever, let's build a weighted system and try it out first!"
"If it's useful, great; if not, just melt it down and forge it into a weapon!"
This method of accelerating ability growth is worth trying even if there's only a sliver of possibility, let alone the fact that Ais has already proven successful.
"That's the second thing, concerning this expedition!"
Finn cleared his throat and steered the meeting toward a more formal topic.
"Normally, Familia of our rank would need to undertake two expeditions each year."
"We've always maintained this frequency, going on expeditions every six months!"
"However, we have failed in two consecutive expeditions, and the current situation is likely to make the world question the strength of our 'Loki Familia'."
Finn's tone grew increasingly serious, and everyone listened intently. The room was so quiet that even the sound of a silver needle dropping to the floor could be clearly heard.
"Therefore, I have decided to embark on another expedition in three months, and this time I will stake everything on my Familia!"
At this moment, Finn was like a gambling master in a casino, calmly placing all his bets, as if placing all his chips would guarantee a win.
"Very well, this time I will definitely tear those worm bastards to shreds!"
Bete's lips curled slightly back, revealing his fangs.
"Very good!"
Tiona clenched her left fist and her right palm together.
The others also agreed with Finn's suggestion; the two consecutive failed expeditions had truly left them feeling frustrated.
"Alright, Tione, could you please take the medicinal items that the Familia obtained this time to the 'Dian Cecht Familia' for processing?"
"Sell it at the highest possible price!"
