Chapter 533: Do you think you can decode the vampire’s puzzle? Can’t break it, buy it at a high price!
"Want to give it a try?" Viscount Seibesh twirled the small black paper package in his hands, observing it back and forth repeatedly.
"Give it a try!" Garrett nodded confidently: "I’ve tried it before! It works great! No problems!"
"Do you really plan to use this for testing?"
Julia floated by with her beloved lace umbrella, effortlessly blocking the mild evening sunlight with the edge of the umbrella draped in mist.
The vampire, appearing youthful, paused and looked back with a slight smile, her tone mocking:
"Be careful, it burns just like silver dust, directly harming you!"

Viscount Seibesh was indeed hesitant about this. Although he could somewhat resist the burn of silver dust, it was hardly pleasant. The thing Garrett concocted, the burning power, it couldn’t possibly be more intense than silver dust...
After all, Garrett was a healer! The holy light emitted by a healer was harmful to their vampire kind!
Garrett calmly handed over a document from his spatial bag:
"Here, take the experimental records made with skeleton soldiers. These low-grade skeletons held it in their hands for half an hour with no signs of burns!"
The record book was densely filled with handwriting of varying darkness and style, clearly from over a dozen magicians. The experiment duration, mana values, the amount of materials used, each set was meticulously recorded.
If the records were forged, the forgery would be overly cumbersome.
Viscount Seibesh glanced at the records, then at the results. The test subjects were low-grade skeleton soldiers; after using Garrett’s newly developed casting material, each one could withstand sunlight for at least 30 minutes to two hours.
"It looks pretty good. — Shall I give it a try?"
"Go ahead! — Don’t just keep looking at the torn paper bag, use it immediately! The casting material loses effectiveness if exposed to light for too long!"
The test results were indeed good. Upon tearing open the bag, a wisp of light black smoke rose, effectively blocking out the sunlight. Viscount Seibesh relaxed, rubbing another piece in his hands back and forth, and sighed with satisfaction:
"It really works! — How do you plan to sell this material?"
"Name your price."
"I’ll have to research it a bit first..."
Garrett was very easygoing, casually stuffing the rest of the casting material to him:
"Help me promote it! If the orders are large, I can offer a discount!"
With two out of the small stack of ten paper bags used, the rest remained inexpensive; let’s see what you can figure out...
Viscount Seibesh returned to his room, closed the door, and extinguished all lights—vampires didn’t need them, thanks to their dark vision—and eagerly pulled out a piece, looking it over from all angles:
A square thin sheet. An inch long, an inch wide, and not much thicker than a hair strand.
Light black, semi-transparent, uniform in thickness, smooth on the surface. The edges were cleanly fractured, with the corners slightly askew.
"Cut with a knife? Was it originally a large sheet?" Viscount Seibesh touched the corners of the thin sheet, drawing conclusions. But what exactly was this material?
It resembled neither crystal, glass, ivory, nor seashell. Viscount Seibesh, who had lived a century, had never seen such a material before.
"Mages always come up with strange things." The young vampire muttered, casting an identification spell on the spot.
osh, five or six heads crowded around. The lace umbrella rotated slightly, a black light opened, covering half of the study. In the black light, the thin sheet at Miss Julia’s fingertips indeed displayed a faint human figure.
"It looks pretty good."
"It can be used to record the image of an enemy."
"Perhaps it can also capture part of a soul?"
"For cursing? Good idea! Let’s try it!"
"We need more experimental material! Buy, buy, buy!"
The vampires’ needs were passed from Marquis Tergu to the archmage, and then from the archmage to Garrett. For this type of casting material that could block sunlight, protect vampires and undead, and capture images, the vampires offered an astonishingly high price:
A single purchase of a thousand pieces, each at five gold coins, totaling 5000 gold coins.
"By the way, can you give a discount for the Black Crow Swamp?"
Archmage Grom also asked casually. Five gold coins each, too expensive for an apprentice mage to afford. Unfortunately, the lower the rank of the skeleton soldiers, the more they needed this material...
"Sure! — Otherwise, I’ll sell you the patent, you handle manufacturing and supply, and just give me a share of the money?"
