Chapter 2166: Failing

Dhub!

“Fuck!” I cursed loudly, seeing another of my attempt fail, wasting resources that would have more than enough for twenty elites and a couple of Masters; not only that, I have also wasted five thousand essence roses of various grades.

It is the fifth failure in two days, and the cost is biting, but I have no choice but to continue with this project. It would be even more successful than the crystal roses, but the success would not be cheap if I continued to fail like this.

It is a good thing I had informed the Pyramid about it, and they are sponsoring 75% resources required for it. 

It was the first time I had asked the council to chip in for a project that had not been actualized. I had not done that even when I had researched the petals and was just able to make them a few days ago, a night before Ida and Neela left for the Blood fields.

I have not informed the Pyramid council about the crystal rose petals; I needed to test them, and if there is some problem, then I will fix it before showing it to the Pyramid.

I am sure they would be ecstatic about the petals, and it would solve a massive problem I have. The High-level essence roses, especially of Elites, Leaders, and Masters. Only a few crystal roses could contend against them, and what essence roses they provide are paltry; I need more, a lot more.

Before, I was the only one who could harvest them in such numbers, and now everyone could, as long as they have those petals.

Still, even if I have a huge number of petals, it would be not available to everyone. There would be several conditions before I provided them to any of the powerhouses, as I want essence roses and not want them to get killed in getting them.

It is not easy to bind the Grimm Monsters; they are powerful and dangerous. If everyone gets these petals, many fall into Grimm Monsters traps and get themselves killed. 

So, only those with powerful binding methods or a stable, calm mind would get these petals, and thankfully it would not be hard to find such people. The Pyramid keeps a detailed file of every powerhouse and regularly evaluates the psyche of the powerhouse secretly and openly.

I cleaned up the mess around me, and thankfully some of these resources could still be of some use, at least those are not tainted by the Grimm energy, I don’t have any way to use them, but I still kept them, one day I might find a use for them.

Once the packing was done, I took out a couple of solutions and added them to wasted material before packing them.

In a few days, they would turn into a nice badge of a good fertilizer, which would be extremely helpful to ever-growing plants in my core. I had planted two more just yesterday; they are quite rare seeds and would produce amazing resources for me.

I did no further experiments; instead, I stepped out of the crystal palace and walked toward the lake.

The walk-in my core always relaxes me; my core is now felt like a small garden to me, with small late and different trees which are beautiful and calming to look at.

The trees are growing great, there is no problem with a single one of them. If this continues, it won’t be long before I do my first harvest. I could do it now, but the level of resources would be too low for me.

I need these resources to reach a Master’s class at first. I might not harvest even if they reach Master class and might wait till a Grandmaster class. As each of these resources is extremely precious and not found in the world or even ruins.

If anyone of them had reached the Grandmaster class, they would be extremely helpful to me, not only for my own use but also for other Grandmasters who pay me a fortune for them.

While every tree is growing to provide me, even the essence tree is the most important thing in my core. The tree that consumed the most resources after the essence tree remained unknown, and it is growing extremely slow, compared to the trees as its stage would grow.

Still, I am willing to give it a chance to see how perfect it is; when one looks at it, I am sure it will surprise me soon enough.

Buzz!

I was strolling through the garden when I felt myself buzzing; I immediately got out of my core and looked at the mail, reading that my expressions couldn’t help but become serious.

Click!

Ten minutes later, I opened the big door in front of and walked inside. There I saw Lord Whitman with tens of screens in front of him, and he looked quite stressed, more than usual.

“Lord Whitman, you have called me,” I asked as I walked inside his office. “Yes, take a seat, Micheal,” He said and tapped on the screen, which turned to me. The screen had only a single word in the middle, but that single word had alarmed me greatly.

‘Vidette’ is the word; whenever this thing appears, a trail of human bodies could be seen. They are too powerful, and barely anyone within the same level could do anything against them. Most of them were killed by those above level with them.

“This is the last message that came from our Master class powerhouse from Lancet Ruin twelve minutes ago before we have lost contact with her,” He said and tapped a few more buttons, and a projection of seven people appeared in front of me.

One of the people in the seven has surprised me. I know her, she could say to be my friend. Her progress is shocking as the last time I saw her, she was a knight.
