Blood Evolution System

Chapter 254 - Information Broker!

The academy started training the students for what was to come. Everyone had to go to the training field early in the morning, and only when it was dark outside did they get to return. The instructor taught them fighting tactics and various magic techniques, from offensive and defensive to supportive and auxiliary. Leilani, King Wrath, John, Iris, and Nevis had to attend these classes as they weren't special students. In contrast, it was up to Vincent if he wanted to participate in them or not.

Vincent's choice was a big fat no.

What he needed right now wasn't training but becoming powerful and advancing his evolutionary stage. He had the recipe for opening energy channels and connecting them. What he needed were ingredients and a high-tech cauldron. The latter would arrive soon as the alchemy association had accepted him as a grade-2 alchemist. They were busy with some things, so they could only dispatch sending his robe, cauldron, and wishlist after four days.

Vincent wasn't irritated. He decided to use those four days to get the ingredients necessary for the energy channel opening pill!

To create the energy channel opening pill, an alchemist needed seven ingredients, and Vincent knew where he could get them.

He went to the marketplace and managed to get three of the seven ingredients.

He went to the shop which Eric had created for the students and purchased two more ingredients necessary to complete the pill.

He had five out of the seven ingredients he needed to create the pill.

The last ingredients weren't available in any market or even the online shop. The only way he could get them was to search for them in the wild.

One ingredient was known as the Flower of Death. Why it has a weird name was because of a reason. The flower releases a hard to resist smell that can enchant people walking towards it. Once they reached it, they would die getting eaten by the main body of the flower, which was a five-meter-wide toad!

The second ingredient was called Grade-2 Sun Herb, a very exotic material. A person could only find it on extremely hot planets. To go to another world, he needed to use a portal. For that, he needed the permission of the military academy. And he was sure he could not get it as they wouldn't let a student go to a dangerous planet where the chances of dying are high!

"It is impossible to get the Sun Herb in a short time. But easy to get the flower of death." Vincent thought for a moment and made his decision. "I can get the Sun Herb by using the wishlist that I would get by the end of this week. As for the Flower of Death, I will have to search for it myself."

Vincent didn't have anything to do for the rest of the day. He wasn't bound to rules. A holographic screen opened up before him as he accessed the virtual network. He searched for an information broker as they are people who sell different types of information in exchange for contributing points or hard cash.

Vincent was searching for one to find information about whether there's a flower of Death in Xavier or not, and if there's one, then where was it?

The virtual network had a lot of functions. Vincent used the filter option, and only pages related to the flower of death popped up on the screen.

It didn't take long for him to come across a trusted broker with hundreds of thousands of followers and numerous likes selling news related to the flower.

Vincent immediately hit him up.

The Conquer: "Hey, I am interested in buying the latest information related to the flower of death. You selling?"

Evil Hand: "Yes, but it would cost you."

The Conquer: "Money is not the problem."

Evil Hand: "You sure? It will cost 1000 contributions points if you want to know which planets you can find the flower of death and ten times that to learn about the exact coordinates. You still want to buy?"

Vincent had 50k+ contributions points. Also, out of the 500 thousand that he had earned from selling the useless stuff that he got from the tomb of Roselia, he still had 20k left. Moreover, He could make millions of contribution points if he put his superpower to use and started selling peak-grade magic scrolls!

Thus, money wasn't a problem for him!

He didn't need to worry about how much he was spending or making!

Vincent tapped away at the virtual keyboard to express his thoughts to the broker.

The Conquer: "As I said, money is not the problem. Let's shake hands and proceed on with this deal?"

Evil Hand: "Damn, I should have doubled the price!"

The Conquer: "Crying over spilled milk is useless."

Evil Hand: "Ah, whatever. What did you want to buy?

The Conquer: "First, sell me the names of the planets where it is present."

Evil Hand: "Initiate the deal."

The Conquer: "Initiate the deal."

After both of them typed the same line, a new window opened up in front of them. Vincent saw that his screen had many empty slots in the middle, and there was one big slot with a big pouch of golden coins in front of it. He clicked that, and a number pad opened up. He put in the number 1000 and pressed enter. Then, his screen turned green.

"You can proceed with the trade after Party B puts in his item." Several words came out of the earbuds which Vincent was wearing and sounded in his ears.

The other side screen turned green after some seconds. Vincent could see that an item had in one of the many empty slots.

"Please confirm if you want to complete the deal and pay Party B 1000 contribution points for the item, A record on the names of Planets where the flower of death grows."

It wasn't absolutely necessary to purchase it. One could even read some of the information to see its authenticity.. Vincent first checked it out, and only after reading the few detailed lines that told him that it was made by a professional and not a scammer did he agree to complete the deal.
