Cursed Immortality

Chapter 121 Rare Tier?

Jacob was refining the last batch of the titan tears.

With this, he would have 1,754 titan tears drops in total.

After the smock vanished, Jacob took out a large glass jar, which was almost filled with dark liquid and he put those few drops into the jar and stowed it away in his pendant again.

He then looked at the reaming pile of the titan iron and shook his head in pity. ʼAll of this will be going to waste. Well, Iʼll let that trolls have it. If he survived the extraction of the parasite gem.ʼ He thought.

However, at this moment, his eyes narrowed when he heard faint steps and calm heartbeats. His hearing now was extremely sensitive. He could listen to a sound within a hundred meters radius, and the closer the sound was, the stronger his hearing.

He could tell these heartbeats werenʼt from his slaves nor any of the members of the sunset family, but these heartbeats were extremely calm as they moved toward his location.

ʼDid I get exposed?ʼ Jacobʼs eyes turned sharper. ʼIf thereʼs someone with a brain, it wasnʼt hard to figure it out. They just have to investigate the people who know about convoy routes and then take out the suspects one by one.

ʼI donʼt know if slave no.1 (Sunset Duke) is still alive or not since these parasite gem controllers will remain the same even if the slave died or the gem shattered. If thatʼs the case, then I would suffer an enormous loss if I lost that rare-grade parasite gem.ʼ

Jacob frowned before he looked at the staircase with cold eyes. He wanted to see if this was just a coincidence or if these two strangers were really here for him and know about this place.

He wasnʼt afraid of anyone in the uncommon region or even rarer region, so he didnʼt mind seeing how things were playing out. Furthermore, he was about to leave anyway, so he didnʼt mind creating some trouble for trolls.

Thereupon, when the steps were finally at the door of the underground warehouse.

ʼBoom…ʼ

The door was blasted into bits!

Jacobʼs lips curled slightly, ʼSo, they knew. What a drag….ʼ

Footsteps rang as the intruders were slowly descending the staircase as if they werenʼt in the least bit worried about whoever was hiding in this place.

Jacob was the same. He remained static while looking at the staircase.

The warehouse was illuminated with lamps, so it wasnʼt difficult to see each other.

Two capped persons appeared in Jacobʼs view at this moment, while the same could be said to be for the other two.

Both sides looked at each other.

Jacob suddenly frowned before his calm expression suddenly crumbled when he felt a strange sensation from one of the capped figures, which made his fine hair stand!

ʼIʼm feeling danger?!ʼ Jacob was flabbergasted as his expression turned grave.

He knew better than anyone that if someone could make him feel danger right now, that person had to be at least an Epic or even stronger.

Furthermore, there was a helper as well. He couldnʼt help but cussed his bad luck.

ʼJust what the hell are these guys doing here?!ʼ

Jacob was no longer confident in killing them. Even his escape route was blocked by those two right now.

”Cursed Immortality!”

Jacob quickly summoned the book. He wanted to know what tier they were and if he could bluff his way out of this mess.

While Jacob felt the hidden danger, he remained static without showing anything, while the other party was the same as well.

ʼWhy is there someone like this doing in this place?! Could it be the organization plan has leaked between the upper echelons of one of the three hegemonies?

ʼIt might be this person deliberately killed the Rogue Skull so he could lure us here and then get rid of all of us in a fell swoop?! Or this is just one terrible coincidence… no…ʼ The womanʼs mind was also working like lightning as my speculation appeared.

She never thought the ʼfishʼ she wanted to eat turned out to be just the tip of the tail of a shark!

If she knew, she couldʼve at least brought her weapon with her and her fighting gear. But she appeared unarmed since she also didnʼt think there would be someone who could threaten her life in this kind of place.

While she sensed the danger from Jacob, her partner didnʼt have their strength level and developed that danger instinct.

He coldly sneered, ”So, you were the one who killed Rogue Skull and stole something that belonged to the organization. You lowly thrall, you really have guts.”

The woman trembled when she heard this, ʼThis muscle brain would be the death of both of us! If I knew, I wouldʼve eaten him long ago!ʼ

Jacob, on the other hand, had an extremely sharp hearing, ʼWhy is the other oneʼs heart rate increased so much while this guy is as calm as ever? Could it be the other guy can also sense that sensation as well and is now wary of me while this one canʼt?ʼ

He quickly reached this conclusion since he was also surprised by the enemyʼs strength, so this might have been the case for the enemy as well.

But it still didnʼt mean it was enough to make the enemy back off. There are still two of them while he was alone.

ʼWait a minute… if they also think like me, then theyʼre unprepared like me as well!ʼ Jacobʼs eyes shone with a thoughtful light.

The Immortika finally replied about the information he asked for as well.

”Hahahahaha… this is really a godsend. Would couldʼve thought you would encounter a rare species so soon! Hahahaha…”

”The fuck youʼre talking about?! That guy is nowhere near a rare species! Now give me the information I need without messing around!” Jacob tutted the moment he saw those words.

”Bastard, you dare to ignore…”

”Shut Up!”

Before the other guy could complete his sentence, the woman bellowed at him furiously, which startled him greatly. He could feel the extremely icy feeling from her, and he shuddered. He didnʼt dare to utter another word anymore.

ʼI was right!ʼ Jacob quickly caught the strangeness between their wording, and this was just enough to make him even more assured about this previous speculation.

While Immortika also finished writing,

”You idiot, I said ʼRare Speciesʼ not ʼTierʼ which means literally what it means.

”Didnʼt I already tell you that ʼCommon, Rare, Rarer…ʼ bullshit was just these natives have created themselves so they could feel better and hide their inferiority from others?

”Let me tell you, the Tier-1 to Tier-12 Ranks were actually called the Common-Tier Ranks. I canʼt tell you that at the time because you hadnʼt contacted a higher-tier being.

”But now that you did, I can tell you that the Common-Tier Ranks are the bottom feeders of the evolution chain and are as irrelevant as ants.

”Above 12 Common-Tier are the 9 Rare-Tiers, and any Rare-Tier-1 Creature can stomp a thousand Common-Tier-12s like ants.

”From two creatures in front of you, one is a Common Tier-12 Lion-Head Orc, while the other is a Rare Tier-1 Dark Elf. Youʼre also at the Rare Tier-1.

”Oh, and a Dark Elf can use initial-level element power as well. Which in your term means… magic! Hahahahah…”

When Jacob read all the information at a lightning speed, he nearly lost his footing when he saw the word ʼMagicʼ which was the last thing he was expecting to come in contact with in this place.

Magic was a fabled concept to him even now, and he had no idea just how deadly Magic was or how it worked. He was simply clueless about it.

Although he felt much better when Immortika told him he was also a level of the rare-tier-1, that means he could put up a fight.

But the word ʼMagicʼ made his heart waver a little and completely toss the idea of even trying to kill the other party.

ʼYou couldʼve kept the last part to yourself, right? But you deliberately reveal it to me to make things worse!ʼ Jacob tutted coldly.

He clearly knew just how sinister this bookʼs mentality was, and it wanted nothing but to watch Jacob burn the world down while enjoying itself from the sidelines.

”May I know why are you in the Common Plains?” The woman suddenly spoke politely, without any hint of emotion.

Jacob had yet to utter even a word as he was just staring at them without any expressions.

ʼCommon Plains?ʼ Jacobʼs eyes shimmered with uncertainty.

But now that he knew what kind of existence the other party was, he didnʼt want to appear ignorant, or he might lose the element of mystery.

He coldly said, ”Oh, you want to know? Then how about you told me what a Lion-Head Orc and a Dark Elf are doing in this place?”

ʼHow did he know?!ʼ

They both thought at the same time. Since they were wearing masks that could easily hide their racial features beneath their capes, someone couldnʼt know their exact race.

But this mysterious man knew!
