Chapter 591 Investigating Faery Humans
A few hours later, a vast mainland appeared on the horizon as Jacob stood in front of the ship and watched the lands getting closer.
A cold smile crept on his impassive face, 'I've finally reached this place.'
It was the most difficult vogue he had experienced while ascending a plain till now, and he had to admit it was pretty crazy if he noted down crazy things he had done.
Not only did he provoke and rob the Zodiac Night Federation, but he also wreaked havoc in the Dead Faction Territory and, in the end, wiped 40% of the territory from the face of unique plains with a signal explosion.
The only loss Jacob suffered that day was a set of his custom-made clothes as well as Captain Free Sword's ship that he left far away from the Dead Faction Territory. He didn't know if someone found it or not, but he wasn't greedy enough to head back and check it. In fact, it was good for him if others found it and thought the crew was dead with their captain.
He already had the flying ship as well as three more large ships slightly smaller than the main ship of the crew, but they were of the same rank, just less imposing, which Jacob didn't care about, really.
In the end, he didn't manage to evolve the hex core, but he got the Lone Hero of Life honorary badge and, with it, the Hero Shop, which contained all the knowledge of magic within the Life faction.
Jacob has already taken full advantage of this privilege and brought a new set of unique rank spells and four ability scripters. Especially the ability scripture named Mind Casting, which allowed others to cast a spell through your thoughts, and the faster the thinking speed, the faster your spell casting. This ability scripture was one of the most expensive ones present in the shop. It cost him 4.5 Billion ZC!
But Jacob knew the price was totally worth it, and after robbing Captain Free Sword and his crew, Jacob was quite rich, so he didn't hesitate to spend someone else money.
Looking at unique plains getting closer, Jacob operated the star watch and directly contacted the Timeless Dark Tree, Zoe, and before long, her voice with a tingled of worry rang in his head, "You're alright?"
Zoe and Sofie had reached the Unique Plains a few months ago, and truth be told, they were quite concerned about Jacob since they knew the federation had been chasing after him like a hound dog.
But when they heard about the explosion taking place half a month ago in the dead faction, Zoe instantly thought about Jacob's specialty. She was gobsmacked since, from her sources, she found that the entire dead faction had been completely shaken by that explosion. The thick radioactive fog had covered the entire territory and hundreds of miles around it.
There was still no movement noticed from the dead faction, and the dark beings in the unique plains continued to be slaughtered without getting any response from the Dead Faction. This was a sign of weakness, and Dark Beings would never allow that to happen. Yet this was happening, so everyone was guessing and making assumptions that the dead faction was finished.
She even tried to contact Jacob, but no response was given, and she thought he had died in that explosion and could only sigh ruefully. But now, after getting his call, she was ecstatic and relieved.
After all, Jacob was her partner, and she hoped to reach the Dark Duke position, so his dying would be bad news for and a bleak future awaited her.
"Yeah, just a small hitch in the way." Jacob didn't bother to explain, and he had already mused that Zoe and Sofie might've guessed that it was him behind that explosion after all the star news was filled with posts about the explosion as well as the current cleanup going of dark beings.
In truth, Jacob was quite astounded by the Life and Neutral Faction suddenly ganging up against the Dark Beings, and he mused that it might be related to matter with Captain Free Sword.
Now, he was even more curious about the path of legend and that key Captain Free Sword hid. Since it was so important that the whole faction was ganging together to get it, Jacob decided not to touch it and let it remain hidden for the time being, at least until he fully comprehended this path of legend and that key.
But before anything, he needed to increase his strength, or even if he had that key, he wouldn't be able to live to keep it.
"Small hitch?" Zoe was speechless, "Are you behind that explosion in the Dead Faction Territory?"
"Indeed, it's not a big deal." Jacob coolly replied, "What about you guys? Where are you now?"
Zoe remained silent for a long time as she didn't know how to react to Jacob's casual tone. He had caused catastrophic damage to the dead faction, and he was calling it not a big deal. She felt a chill in her spin as she still had underestimated Jacob and his weaponry.
Even in Unique Plains, those people still have to fear the Faceless Ancient like the people in Epic Plains. That also made her excited about her own further, and she was even more confident about her partnership with Jacob now.
"We are in the Unique Plains Dark City right now. Where are you, did you arrive yet? I need to report to the main city in the Dark Territory within the Neutral Faction. I was waiting for you before we left for it together." She asked hastily.
Jacob was surprised for a moment; he knew unlike the Dead Faction's united Territory, the territories of the Life and Neutral Faction were split among three hegemonies of the Life Faction and three neutral powers of the Neutral Faction.
The unique plains were the source of conflict between everyone; it was used for endless wars, and resources never ran out in here, as well as the plain trial, which was the biggest boon. So, the Unique Plains didn't belong to anyone, and every power wanted a larger piece of it.
He replied, "Yes, I'm about to reach the shore. As for going into the Neutral Faction Territory, I think I'll pass since I have another matter to tend to. I was calling you to help me with it a little.
"I want you to look into information regarding the Faery Human Race of Cardinal Spirit Temple, especially the Edgar Clan of Faery Human Race, the chief clan of Faery Humans. Send me everything you can find on them, their locations, numbers, and any strange historical event about them. I want everything," Jacob ordered coldly.
Jacob had already gotten little information about the Faery Humans from Captain Free Sword and Masha's memories, but they knew too little, just like the common public, because of their backgrounds.
So, he could only ask Zoe for help; after all, she belonged to the Dark Duke Clan, the ruling clan of the Dark City. That was one of his reason to keep Zoe close, she was very useful.
"Faery Humans of Cardinal Spirit Temple?" Zoe were surprised as she naturally heard of those arrogant and conceited faeries, they were all hypocrites with black hearts despite calling themselves the people of light.
"Alright, give me a few hours; I'll arrange everything for you and send you the file. But you should be careful; I've heard the Cardinal Spirit Temple is the most mysterious of all powers, and they serve true god and all faith fanatics. No one dares to mess with them." She sternly warned.
"Just prepared the information, I'm not looking for a fight." Jacob coolly replied before he ended the call.
At this moment, he sighed ruefully, "In the end, I still have to investigate Faery Humans. I wonder if I bump into this body's relatives. I sure hope not!"
