FVN Chapter 153 Contacting Old Friends
Chapter 153 Contacting Old Friends
Harold was texting me like crazy telling me how with my display of power against Florick and my team's wiping out of the dragons on the outskirts of the city, the people who had left the auditorium were begging him to let them get in touch with me.
It was nice to finally be recognized, but I figured that they didn't deserve a second chance. It was partially a respect thing, but also, I had more than enough girls now than I knew what to do with. I didn't need hundreds more.
I didn't want to completely turn them away though. So I had Harold tell them to show up for the battle with Lilith's army, to bring as many people as they can, and if they make a huge difference in the battle, I might choose one of their women.
He said that a lot of them jumped at that idea and promised to be there with an army of their own. That was one major problem solved. Even with my new girls, I would likely need a large amount of troops to win the battle.
When the girls, Shikasa, and I got to the Dragon Sect, it was deserted. Since no one owned them anymore, I took as many precious and valuable looking items out of the sect buildings as I could and put them in my inventory.
I even looted their vault and just emptied the whole thing into my inventory. Well, Midas just ate it all, but saying I put it in my inventory sounds more sophisticated than it actually was. He just om nom nom-ed all the gold and precious valuables into his infinite stomach.
There was actually a lot of jewelry in there and some of it had blue diamonds in them. I gave those to Hope to eat.
"Thank you, Dylan, sir!" She said as she shoveled blue diamonds into her mouth. It wasn't much, but it was something.
She tried to use her powers to generate the diamonds she ate into her hand, but she still couldn't do that. When an elemental absorbs their element, they should be able to grow or produce the element with their body at will, but she couldn't.
It looked like I would need to cum in her still before she could activate her powers. Which sounds ridiculous, despite how real and important it was.
There were also a lot of regular diamonds that she couldn't eat or absorb for some reason. A lot of them. That gave me an idea. I pulled up the system menu and selected the alchemy tab.
A tear in space formed in front of me and Tommy showed up behind a shop counter looking contraption. There were alchemy supplies and products everywhere.
"Hey Dylan! My man! I still have no idea how you're doing this space warping shit, but I don't care! You're a paying customer, and that's all that matters. Well, and we're friends too, of course," Tommy said.
"Tommy, Tommy, Tommy. You were always more concerned with how much the band got paid than me and Dan, so this totally tracks. I want to stock up on your new stuff, if you have any, and I'd like to make a custom order," I said.
"A custom order? Interesting. Sounds like a challenge. I love a good challenge. What do you need?" He said.
"I need you to figure out how to turn regular diamonds into blue diamonds. I have a girl on my team who is a blue diamond elemental and she can only eat blue diamonds to get stronger. She can't eat regular ones, but I figured if you can transform them, she could get stronger much faster! Considering the fact that there just aren't enough natural blue diamonds in the world for her to absorb a significant amount of mass," I said.
"That is a challenge! You know, blue diamonds aren't too dissimilar from regular ones. They just have trace impurities of boron in their crystalline lattice structure. No one has ever done this before, but if I can break down the crystal structure and recrystallize the diamonds with boron impurities, she should be able to absorb them. Theoretically," Tommy said.
"That sounds fantastic! Please do that," I said.
"You don't happen have any diamonds on you right now do you? I need base diamonds and test diamonds if I'm going to do this," Tommy said. Continue your adventure with empire
"Oh, yeah, here you go!" I said.
"Yeah, well, I wish you luck with that. Was there anything else you needed? Oh by the way, I can make Spirit grade pills now! They're five times stronger than Mortal grade pills!" He said.
"What do you have?" I said.
"I've got everything I had before, but in Spirit grade. I also added elemental resistance pills to my list, healing pills, and blood essence pills. The blood essence pills are kind of a grab bag of memories and skills you can acquire through blood memory absorption and integration," he said.
"Ok, get me 20 elemental resistance pills of every type, 40 healing pills, 100 blood essence pills, 200 life essence pills, and 20 elemental affinity pills of every type. And make sure they're all Spirit grade, of course," I said.
"Of course. I would normally warn you how expensive that is, but since you took down the dragons, you probably have the money. That's $100,000,000 or 1 million gold giblets." Tommy said.
"Holy shit! Alright. Here you go," I said as I slammed a massive stack of bills on his counter.
"Thank you," Tommy said as he shoved the money behind the counter and clearly just onto the floor behind it.
"You better pick that up," I said.
"Oh, trust me, I will," he said and winked.
"That makes me think you're gonna do it naked or something. Be careful with your winks," I said.
"Who says I won't?" He said, winking again.
"Ok, mister. You go enjoy that. I'm gonna hit up Dan about the fundraising concert," I said.
I hit "Talk" on the Companions tab in the system for Dan. Another rip in space appeared and I talked with him a bit. I updated him on everything that was going on, and we chatted about his time in the Werewolf sect.
I even told him about Luna, and he said, "Oh yeah, that chick is cool. Too hot for me though."
I didn't argue with him on that even though I wanted to. I wanted him to have more confidence in himself, but it would've felt weird arguing he had a chance with a girl I was currently seeing.
I brought up the concert and he was all for it. He was also excited to meet Mel. As the bassist, he was the most chill person in the band. Him and I had a stronger rapport than I did with Tommy. Tommy and I were still friends. He just didn't have the same way with people that Dan did.
After hanging up with Dan, I told Hope about the blue diamond experiment I was having Tommy try and she got super excited for it. Although, her version of excited and other people's version of excited were very different.
She rarely used exclamation marks when she spoke. So when I told her she finally might be able to make real elemental cultivation progress and that I was literally giving up billions of dollars to do it, she went, "Oh, thank you, Dylan. That's so nice of you. I appreciate how considerate you are."
And then she hugged me weakly. I almost laughed at how understated she was as a person, but I didn't want to make her feel even more insecure than she already did.
After that, I got ready to hit the space dungeon with Thistle and Penny.
