Cursed Immortality

Chapter 271 Black Sea Company

Jacob looked at the map in front of him with shining eyes and a faint smile, ”Who wouldʼve thought I would get this map so easily? Now, I donʼt have to worry about my traveling problem. But now I have to kill those guys since that woman still has some use.” He muttered with derision.

Although this mission seemed quite deadly, killing a mercenary who could become a permanent member of the bank wonʼt be someone easy to kill. But for Jacob, he just needed to lure them outside the dark city before turning them into ZC.

Not only he profited from this, but he also got two important maps from a reliable source.

ʼNow the question is when should I get rid of those guys?ʼ Killing intent flashed past his eyes. Since Lucy wanted to kill him, he wonʼt show mercy as well.

The next day, Jacob left the alchemy guild after twenty months and headed toward the market of the inner circle for a stroll.

The moment he started walking on the street, Jacob instantly felt multiple eyes on him, but he didnʼt react and pretended to be ignorant.

Jacob was heading toward a special building which a black sailboat logo on its front, and written under the logo was ʼBlack Sea Company.ʼ

The reason he came to this place was naturally to buy a ship, and another reason being he was quite familiar with their product as well. Because he used the Black Ship of their company to travel in the rare plains as well, but it was stolen goods, so he had to return it back.

Furthermore, since this company can open in the inner circle of the dark city, then it couldnʼt be normal at all.

Thatʼs why after asking around, he found this place, and he must say it was only inferior to three hegemonies buildings.

Without hesitation, he walked within the building and entered a large expansion, lavishly decorated with different ship statues.

An elvish woman approached Jacob with a smile as she greeted him, ”Welcome, gentleman. How may I help you today?”

”I want a treasure ship.” Jacob impassibly answered.

”Do you have any rank preferences?” asked the elf without hiding her elation.

She knew the Treasure Ship Jacob was refereeing to were ranked ships that were made of treasure materials. Anyone who could buy a treasure ship in this place had to be a big shot so she could get a large commission if she managed to sell a high-quality, expensive product.

”I want at least an Advance Type-1 treasure ship, but I want it small, around the range of 10 meters. Money is not a problem.” Jacob stated as he had already thought about what kind of ship he wanted.

The biggest requirement was that the ship should be able to fit in his pendant.

The elf womanʼs eyes lit up as she instantly knew it was going to be her lucky day, ”Please follow me. Iʼll inform the manager!”

Jacob nodded and followed her into a private room. He didnʼt have to wait before a demi-human with foxy features entered the room wearing a white suit, followed by the same elf woman who brought him here.

”My name is Reuben, and Iʼm the manager of this branch. How may I address esteem, sir?” Reuben politely introduced himself to Jacob.

”Jack.” Jacob plainly answered.

Reuben wasnʼt bothered by Jacobʼs lack of response since everyone in this place was mostly eccentrics.

”My associate here told me you want a treasure ship with at least Advance-Type-1 rank?” He asked with a big smile.

And when Jacob nodded in affirmation, he quickly said, ”In that case, I would like to confirm one thing, which type of payment are you going to use? I must inform you, sir Advance Type-1 ships only sell using a special type of currency, and without it, Iʼm afraid I canʼt sell you Intermediate or Advance Type-1 ships. Itʼs star networkʼs policy. I hope you wonʼt take offense.”

Ruben was telling the truth. In fact, any treasure above basic type-1 could not be bought by using only gold coins, no matter how much someone had.

This rule was implanted because these treasures were too powerful, not to mention very difficult to make, so the Star Network created this policy so only someone with ZC could buy them, not just any random tom, dick, or harry.

Jacob also knew what this guy was asking by not speaking the name out loud, so he coolly replied, ”Zodiac Credit.”

Reubenʼs smile widened, ”In that case, I have three ships that suit your demand, Sir. Please have a look.” He quickly activated his star watch before three shipsʼ projections materialized in the air.

He pointed at the white ship and said, ”This white ship, size 9.6 meters is an Advance Type-1 treasure ship, and its speed is 500Mph, with an Advance Type-1 magic barrier function, autopilot, Star Watch controller, navigation, and advance type-1 sea scanner. Its price is 900 ZC.”

Then he pointed at the golden ship, which had silver markings on it, ”This Golden Ship, size 10.2 meters, not only has all the white ship functions, but it also has Advance Type-1 magic scanner as well and a magic cannon which could be controlled manually by star watch controller. Its price is 1500 ZC.”

Lastly, he pointed at the dark blue ship with black markings, but this ship looked like a flat triangle, not a ship.

”This Stealth Triangle, size 5.9 meters, is two passengers Ship, and it has every function of the aforementioned ships except the magic canon. But it was done because this shipʼs true specialty lies within its stealth function and speed.

”The stealth function can make it hide under the detection of extraordinary creatures and any Advance Type-1 scanners. At the same time, its speed is Mach 1. The price of the Stealth triangle is 3000 ZC!” Reuben stated as he looked at Jacob, who was silently listening to his introduction.

Jacob looked at all three ships before his eyes stopped at the stealth triangle eventually. Not only was this ship small, but its size was also quite to his liking. Furthermore, he didnʼt need any cannons as long as he could remain hidden.

The star ocean was too dangerous, so having stealth was more important than having firepower.

So, he impassively stated, ”I will take this stealth triangle and make it black if you could!”
