Warlock Apprentice

Chapter 687 - Six Bullets



Sunders thoroughly read through Angor’s papers.

“I see you put a lot of work on it, but why did you only use a single test subject? Without a ‘control group’, it’s too difficult to find any conclusive result.”

“I don’t have a choice, sir.” Angor showed a bitter smile. “I need over two thousand killed souls to get one bullet, and I only have six bullets so far.”

Sunders frowned—if this was true, then doing the test on multiple souls was quite pointless since all they got was a “reverted undead”.

However, it wasn’t strange to discover a “pointless” Mystery effect in this world. Even a true Mystery item like “Whelk of the Dreaming Coast” could have a completely useless effect, and Angor’s revolver was only a semi-Mystery item.

Sunders slowly flipped through Angor’s report again. He suddenly noticed something when looking at the records that showed the energy change inside the undead soul.

Next, he replayed the image recorded in Angor’s transmitter.

“This is… deficient soul structure.”

“Flora,” a low, hoarse voice suddenly came to them. Flora froze up mid-speech.

“Professor, you’re making me really curious here,” Flora said toward Sunders’ study, from where the voice just came.

“If that’s the case, feel free to ask Angor to make you one. Of course, prepare your payment.”

“Of course, professor. Equivalent exchange, I know that.”

“You know, when Leona—”

“Oh, the essence of Glutton Flower Lord? I didn’t know that thing’s so expensive, and Leona kinda tricked me!”

Despite her words, it didn’t seem Flora was blaming Leona for not telling her the true value of the essence she extracted from Angor.

“Well, I don’t have anything to give you right now.” Flora looked at Angor again. “I’ll talk about it when I find a chance.”

Angor slowly nodded.

“Oh, and,” Flora continued, “I need to tell you something else too, but I’m kinda in a hurry right now, so… maybe later!”

Flora then floated away while Spivet followed behind her after showing Angor a cunning smile.
