Cursed Immortality-Chapter 619 A Terrifying Assumption!

?Jacob moved quickly without caring about the blood and gory mess within the passage and used his eyes to pick up rings and white beads covered in blood. He didn't have time to appraise all these items, but he knew they were all treasures that even go undetected within the dark city.

After he was done looting the spoils, Jacob finally relaxed a little, but he wasn't done. Looking at the crimson mist that filled the entire place, Jacob's eyes flashed with crimson hue as he suddenly clasped his hands together, and an empty white scroll appeared between them.

'Whammy Poison Magic Scroll Condense!'

The next moment, the white scroll in his hand began to blow under crimson light, and the poison mist around him churned before a strong suction appeared, and the poison mist began to be absorbed within the empty magic scroll.

This was another magic capability of an Evil Poison Lord who practiced the Whammy Poison. The Whammy Poison Magic was the result of Poisons and Curse Mana so that it wouldn't vanish like normal magic.

That's why an Evil Poison Lord can take back the used whammy poison magic into empty magic scrolls, turning them into Whammy Poison Magic Scrolls and using them again continuously until the Whammy Poison fully vanishes or is destroyed. It was like gathering poison but could only be done through magic scrolls.

Not only that, but a Whammy Poison became more potent the more lives it took, and there was written in the ancient texts that a Whammy Poison can even gain its own spirituality if it becomes extremely strong after taking countless lives and absorbing powerful poisons.

However, this art of the Evil Poison Lord was long lost, and even Witch Queen Margret could barely scratch the surface. Jacob was now as knowledgeable as Margret of that time about Whammy Poison and Imprecate Magic and many more lore about the curse magic.

But it was a pity that all the knowledge was up to the basic unique rank, and he had to do his own research if he wanted to make progress. He even wanted to find the Vile Witch Race that Margret belonged to so he could take their advanced rank knowledge.

However, only after some investigation did he find that the Vile Witch Race had long vanished from the Unique Plains. The current Witch Race, also the race of Karim and the ruler of the Alchemy Guild, was known as the Charm Witch Race.

Nonetheless, they also practiced some unknown branch of Witchcraft, which made them affiliated with the curses all the same, especially their tracking curses. So, this reason was enough for Jacob to put them on his list of future targets.

Under Jacob's command, the crimson poison mist absorbed in the magic scroll changed its color from white to blood crimson. Now, the entire place became clear, and the scene was even more bloody.

At this moment, Jacob headed towards the first two slumbering attackers and dragged them inside the Dark Room.

He coldly said, "So, Dark Rose, do you believe me now? Not only did I was attacked, but I even had to protect myself on my own and managed to kill twelve of them while capturing two alive. What kind of compensation will I get?"

Jacob hadn't forgotten about his early talk with Dark Rose. He was indignant about what happened. He knew if he had been in the dark pod, things would've turned hectic, and by the time he had realized, it could've been all over.

"Dark City seeks Dark Viscount forgiveness in this matter! It appeared the Star Hackers had breached our security with the help of their Spy within our ranks. This matter has been deemed a 5th-degree dark incident and reported back to the headquarters!

"Please wait for the response; the Dark City will give you a satisfactory explanation and bestow you corresponding rewards for taking out the vermin! Not only that, but the Dark City will also be your proxy in claiming the best rewards from the Star Network for killing and capturing the scourges of Star Hackers!

"In the meanwhile, you are free to move into the Dark Marquis Estate for three years, and your Dark Room activation of the Dark Marquis Rank Dark Room will be free. I can assure you this is the most secure place in the entire Dark City!"

Jacob's eyes shimmered when he heard 'Star Hackers,' and his heart sank a little, 'Why did those guys target me in this place?! I have no enmity with them unless they found out about what I did to those two in the epic plains. But this matter is not big enough for them to send such a force while risking pissing off the Dark City.

'If it were the three hegemonies, at least it would've made sense. Wait… those guys were wearing two different rings, and one of them had somewhat familiar patterns!'

Jacob's eyes flashed with shock and uncertainty as a ring appeared in his hand with some trace of fresh blood. But Jacob didn't care about it as he quickly scrutinized the pattern around the inner ring, and his heart went cold as his eyes landed on the ring on his pinky.

He quickly took it off, and after he looked carefully, the pattern under his own ring was the same.

'These guys are extremely proficient in advanced technology and can fool the Star Network, so they might have methods to track down their own tech. And what if, like the Star network, they can also tag the IDs of their owners in these techs?

'So, if this ring also has such an ID, and by the looks of the force they sent after me, didn't this mean they had already found out that I have some connection with Free Sword!?

'This is the only explanation I could think of, and even if I'm wrong, I can't brush this off. Whatever the reason is, I can't stay here any longer; if there is even a 1% chance that my assumption is true, then once they deem me untouchable, they might release this information, and once that happens…'

Just thinking about it made Jacob tremble a little. He knew just how important the path of legend was for everyone. Captain Free Sword was terrorized because of this exact reason.

If those guys got the wind of this news, he could forget about living in peace. Even the Dark Duke will do anything to acquire that key. Jacob was not going to believe in those rules as even the Dark Marquis turned out to be a spy, and since he wasn't moving against the Dark City's interest or harming it directly, he was able to target him!

"Dark Rose, who can see my Star ID in the Dark City?" He quickly asked.

"Everyone ranks above yours with personal membership can get your Star ID." Dark Rose statically replied.

'No, I can't stay here, even if my conjecture and I hope it is wrong, since those guys targeted me with such a force, they won't give up so easily, especially if they had some strong motive…' Jacob mused grimly.

At this moment, Jacob suddenly heard the secret passage door open and hurried steps toward the Dark Room.

Dark Rose's voice rang, "The investigation team is here!"freewe bnovel .com
