Chapter 603 Dark Room
The large carriage stopped outside a huge door of a luxurious mansion where elven maids wearing black and white maid uniforms were lined in two rows, waiting for Jacob's arrival.
Standing at the very front was a three-meter-tall barbarian wearing a black butler suit, and his long black hair was tied with a metal pin; he appeared very refined and scholarly, but behind his refined appearance was the hidden aura of a tier-6 unique aura user. But he was still a mere butler of this mansion, and his name was Kasper!
Kasper gracefully moved to open the large door of the carriage as he had already been informed about the arrival of the new lord.
Jacob stepped outside and looked at the lineup impassively; as a Dark Marquise, he was given his own service staff with the estate, and on his way here, he found that this estate was like a small palace spreading over ten miles, and there were many people working here.
"Your Highness, Kasper is at your service!" Kasper was respectfully greeted with a graceful bow.
After seeing Jacob, Kasper was astounded since he didn't expect the new lord to be a giant, and he clearly wasn't an ordinary giant either.
Jacob looked at Kasper and nodded, "I'll be in your care. Bring me to the Dark Room, and I'm going into seclusion. If someone comes to meet me, decline them all. I don't want to be disturbed, or I'll blame you."
Kasper didn't find this command unreasonable at all since he knew the dark nobles, especially the personal members, lived in the dark city for the Dark Rooms.
"Please, follow me, your highness." He quickly led Jacob inside the mansion.
The elven maids quickly bowed toward Jacob as some of them were blushing, and expectation shone in their eyes as they all wanted to draw his attention. They were mere servants, and if they could catch the attention of someone like Jacob, they could rise in one fell swoop.
Even though they were all beauties, Jacob didn't even glance at them. After seeing Nyx's appearance for many years, his standards were extremely high. Even if he wanted a woman, he could have as many as wants, but his carnal desires were completely suppressed, especially as he grew stronger.
Now, all he desired was power and more power until he achieved immortality.
Kasper led Jacob to the most hidden part of the mansion, which was actually protected by a powerful array of locks. Soon, they were ungrounded and standing in front of a black door.
Kasper respectfully said, "Your Highness, this is the Dark Room, and if you want to enter it, you have to scan it with your star watch. Servants like us can't open his door, and only the dark nobles like my lord can enter."
"Alright, I'll take it from here." Jacob nodded before Kasper excused himself and he left Jacob alone.
Jacob then closed his star watch towards the runic symbol engraved at the door, and the next moment, Dark Rose's voice rang in his mind.
"Welcome to Dark Room, Dark Viscount.
"Do you want to activate the Dark Room?
"Please select your activation plan."
The next moment, an interface opened right in front of the dark room with rows of words.
"10 Days activation Cost: 10 Dark Credits
"30 Days activation Cost: 25 Dark Credits
"50 days activation Cost: 40 Dark Credits
"100 days activation Cost: 85 Dark Credits
"Your total Dark Credits: 1100"
Jacob was surprised to see the menu. "So, did it require Dark Credits to operate this dark room? This is peculiar, but I still don't know what this dark room is. Dark Rose, can you describe this Dark Room's function?" He asked with a frown.
The Dark Credits were the currency of the Dark City allocated to only the personal members, and it was very precious. The DC can only be earned through the secret dark mission or by directly trading materials, medicines, pills, potions, etc., to the Dark City or Personal Members. They were not transferable or tradable between outer members.
Jacob only had 1100 of them, 100 from joining the dark city, while he got 1000 after he completed the ascending secret dark mission. This mysterious dark room also required DC to activate, so how could he spend them without knowing the benefits?
Furthermore, there were many things in the dark city shop of personal members that were quite useful for Jacob, like the knowledge of professions. If he begins to buy it, then 1100 DC was far from enough.
Dark Rose replied statically, "The Dark Room has two functions. The first function is Magic Density, which is ten times greater than the outside, and you can also select specific elements of magic energy that could help you in your magic cultivation or magic practice.
"The second and the main function is Dark Battle Arena, a virtual battle arena where you can fight with other personal members of the Dark City from all over the unique plains and beyond."
Jacob's eyes widened slightly when he heard the functions of the dark room, especially about the Dark Battle Arena; Jacob's attention was caught by the final words as he quickly asked for conformation, "You just said that I can fight with dark city personal members from all over the unique plains and beyond. Explain 'beyond' to me. Are you hinting at people from other galaxies?"
"Affirmative. Dark Marquis can indeed come in contact with people of the other Lesser Galaxies.
"But please keep in mind that you can't divulge this information to anyone under any circumstances. The Dark Room is the core secret of the Dark City, and since Dark Marquis now comes in contact with it, you have to sign on the Zodiac Oath Contract!"
The next moment, a virtual Zodiac Oath Contract appeared in front of Jacob with all the clauses.
But Jacob didn't care about it at all as he was far more interested in knowing about these lesser galaxies. He already knew about the structure of the Zodiac Plains from Captain Free Sword.
He thought it was a well-guarded or some mythical secret, but the dark city seemed to be completely aware of it, and they even managed to connect their people with other galaxies.
Jacob quickly signed the other oath contract before he asked, "Can you tell me more about these galaxies, especially the middle galaxies?"
According to his assumption, the Common, Rare, Epic, and Unique Plains were made the whole of a lesser galaxy, which means that the middle galaxy should be where the legendary plains are. As for the upper galaxy, he didn't dare to imagine what kind of place that was or what kind of terrifying existence resides there.
"I don't have the authority to divulge knowledge about the middle galaxies." Dark Rose statically replied.
Jacob frowned, 'Well, I guess I was being too optimistic. If the dark city could come in contact with the middle galaxies, then why would they be hunting Captain Free Sword with everyone else like rabid dogs?
'Still, just the knowledge about the other lesser galaxies is worth paying DC. I want to know if the other galaxies are the same as the Taurus Galaxy or if they are different. I might even find some clues about the middle galaxies from them…'
Thinking at this moment, Jacob felt his choice of coming here was correct, so he quickly selected the 100-day deal, and right after that, the closed door of the Dark Room began to open!
