บท 761: Pipe

While the Tethered Bellhorn Steel blade was one of his trump cards, it was not the only one.

He had come up with two ideas when he finished his long research endeavor. These two were the most promising of ideas, and when it came down to it, he was unable to choose between them.

The second idea after the blade was something he had managed to dig up on another Shionel esoteric called Mercurite, a semi-solid esoteric substance known for its elasticity. He had stumbled upon an experiment surrounding the substance that involved subjecting it to high pressures and to high-temperature air in a gas chamber. Mercurite, known for its elasticity, would immediately grow rigid in these circumstances, developing a temporarily high tensile strength for the duration of the experiment and some a brief time even after being returned to standard pressures and temperatures.
