Cursed Immortality

Chapter 663 Chaos in Deep Ocean (2)

In the southern territory of the Mighty Whale Empire, at this moment, around a thousand thunder whales, emitting powerful pressure, were swimming towards the dukedom of Blue Whale Duke, and mounted on these whales were thousands of armored men of the Whale Race.

This was the Imperial Army of the Imperial Palace, and for the first time in hundreds of years, it left the Imperial City. But the most surprising part was that they were not going to war; instead, they were ordered to hunt a singular being!

If it were a few months back, many people wouldʼve laughed at this mighty force gathering for only a single person. But that is no longer the case because this singular being has shaken the entire empire and made them dread its existence.

Furthermore, this force was gathered with the unanimous decision of the higher-ups of the empire.

They were in the Blue Whale Dukeʼs territory because the target had been hunting in this place for the past week, and they were hoping to bump into him before more of their natives turned into corpses. Even the Blue Whale Duke was quite apprehensive and didnʼt dare underestimate this singular being.

However, this army didnʼt know that the person they were here to hunt was lurking around them in the darkness of the deep ocean.

Jacob was a few hundred meters away from the marching imperial army as he sat on his thunder whale while observing them with emotionless eyes. He had been expecting them for quite some time, and the moment they made their move, he instantly and sneakily started to follow them while doing his preparation for ʼharvestʼ.

In his eyes, they were just high-quality blood bags, delivering themselves on their own, and all he needed to do now was to drain them.

”Howʼs it going?” Jacob sent a telepathy message to Autarch.

”Iʼve already taken control of the commanders, and now Iʼm turning the others below them into puppets!” Autarch replied emotionlessly.

Jacobʼs eyes shimmered with elation. ”Good when youʼre done; follow the plan as weʼve discussed!”

”As your command!”

Jacob wasnʼt a fool to face off with this imperial army head-on alone because even from here, he could tell there were some initial stage beyond unique rank experts in this army. Not only that, the army commanders seemed to be at least at the perfect stage of the beyond unique rank, and if he wasnʼt wrong, there should be one initial stage inception legend rank expert as well.

Without Autarch, who could now turn three steps of legend-rank experts into its puppets, Jacob wouldʼve never confronted this huge army.

In fact, all the massacres he had done up until now were with the help of Autarch. He first had Autarch turn the strongest people in the target city or region into its puppets while he himself remained in the shadows and let Autarch do the deed. He only interfered if someone escaped Autarchʼs net.

Using this simple yet effective method, Jacob easily collected blood. As he got the hang of Autarchʼs abilities and his own, his target levels were raised, and he started to hunt in the blue whale duke territory.

But he didnʼt go after the Blue Whale Duke, who should be an expert in the three steps of legend ranks, because he knew if he wiped out a Duke-level city and the Duke himself, the imperial family might not send those guys out to let them die in vain.

After all, the Whale Dukes were considered the strongest people of the Mighty Whale Empire after the hidden experts of the imperial palace and the Whale Emperor himself.

But this façade wonʼt last long once he wipes out this army. The Mighty Whale Empire would be on complete guard against him after this and stop holding back. However, this is what Jacob was aiming for!

”Sir, Iʼm ready!” Autarchʼs voice rang at this moment.

Jacobʼs lips curled up in a cruel smile, ”Then letʼs begin!”

The moment Jacob issued the order, powerful, explosive ripples boomed above the imperial armyʼs thunder whales, disrupting the flow of the entire march.

Thereafter, thousands of imperial soldiers scattered in the ocean, leaving the thunder whales with bewilderment and apprehensive expressions. They had no idea what just transpired and few among them who witnessed their own men suddenly attacking the thunder whales were completely baffled by their action.

Furthermore, the thunder whales at the very front, which were carrying the most powerful forces of this army, were now lifelessly sinking down; they were killed by attackers in one shot!

When the imperial soldiers begin to realize what happened, it is already too late, and the scene that transpired in front of them is straight out of a nightmare. They saw their commanders and captains were now slaughtering their own men without showing any mercy!

The person who stood out most among them was a whale in black armor waving his ash-gray trident, creating sharp waves. Whenever those waves passed, the decapitated bodies of the imperial soldiers fell!

Soon, the water was dyed in blood as wails filled with disbelief and dread of the soldiers playing in the crimson water like the song of death. Those who tried to retaliate or flee were simply too weak to do anything, and those who were lucky to escape silently vanished.

Thereupon, the cries of despair died down, and no one managed to escape alive from this bloody slaughter. The most ironic part was those who were responsible for it were respected and revered among these very soldiers they slaughtered, and some of them were their students or had learned from them at some point in their careers. Now, they were dead under those revered figuresʼ hands; it was such a tragedy.

At this moment, a ghostly voice with a hint of eerie ecstasy suddenly rang in the middle of this crimson sea of blood, ”Blood Suction!”

All the blood in the water suddenly came alive and started to gather in a single point. As the water became clearer, a huge sphere of blood hovered above a bone hand filled with runic lines.

Jacob didnʼt waste even a second before he started to absorb the blood, completely ignoring the piles of decapitated dry bodies on the ocean floor while those few puppets that survived the carnage stoically circled around him, forming a protection formation.

But what Jacob didnʼt know was far away from his location was a strange tiny fish with a pair of demonic eyes, and it also appeared invisible because of its transparent scales; it had secretly witnessed this entire scene!
