The performance of the Black Tide in battle was nothing short of perfect; it completely crushed a group of harpies.
That said, it wasn't without loss.
The hit rate of the Pseudo-Soul artillery was really not very good, less than a mere thirty percent.
This resulted in excessive consumption of ammunition, necessitating a switch to only using bone projectiles that could proliferate automatically.
The next issue was the insufficient flexibility of the unmanned drones' jet engines, likely because the parts were not finely machined during manufacture, and were a bit shoddy.
This meant a reckoning was needed with Gustavo Flint, as the parts were all custom-ordered from him.
If even the product quality can't be controlled by the current Alchemist Guild, what good is the Guild leader?
Having dealt with the harpies, Amberser casually collected some souls and corpses.
