Cursed Immortality

Chapter 447 Whammy Poison

Immortika made its entrance with its signature wanton laughter, which Jacob naturally ignored and got straight to the point, ”Is there anything living ahead of us?”

Although this was the easiest door, Jacob still wanted to be discreet, and he was also planning on moving only when Immortika was summoned. While the rest of the time, he was going to touch the magic knowledge he had acquired after selling his weapons.

Now that no one was here to bother him, he was not going to put it on hold any longer. Because he had entered the Vile Witch Layer successfully, it also means he had completed Captain Free Swordʼs mission, and there was no longer a need for him to take risks.

However, this never meant he was out of danger. He was far from it, and he didnʼt have time to waste. Since he had already achieved his goal of becoming a true Elder Grandmaster Rune Artifice ahead of time, now it was time to research magic.

”Hehehe… no, thereʼs none. But itʼs far more interesting.” Immortika wrote.

”What do you mean?” Jacobʼs eyes instantly narrowed since nothing good would come whenever this cursed book called something interesting.

”You know Iʼm restricted, right? Hehehe…”

Jacobʼs expression darkened as he now really hesitated to go into that misty passage. But in the end, with his short sword and a Black Titan, the cracked handgun he used early, he entered.

The Black Titans were the two handguns or hand cannons that would be the correct words to describe the Black Titans.

He had created them in the Rare Plains, and they were made with heavy and sturdy metals, and they could shoot a bullet at the same range and velocity as the Titan Sniper.

Furthermore, Jacob had also made special bullets for these two hand cannons, and those bullets were one of his top 20 inventions of his past life, which never saw the light of the day, the Atomic Friction Killer.

He had discovered a way to turn the atomic nucleolus into atomic gunpowder and compress it into an Atomic Friction Killer Bullet. The biggest concern about a nuclear bullet is blasting right when the trigger of the gun is pulled because of the insanely fast nuclear fusion or reaction.

But Jacob discovered a way to avoid it and turned that dangerous flaw into a dangerous advantage by creating a new type of bullet shell. After coming into this world, he discovered he didnʼt even need to create that bullet case from scratch.

This made the once inconvenient task too easy, and Jacob was able to create the Atomic Friction Killer Bullets to his heartʼs content. This 7.62x51mm bullet packs the punch of a small artillery shell and the 1% destructive power of an atomic grenade!

This means not even the hard skin and bones of epic-rank giants could handle this single bullet.

However, this bullet was so fast and destructive that even a gun at the level of Titan Sniper or even Iron Titan Sniper couldnʼt endure for long and would end up getting destroyed.

The optimal gun for this bullet is the Quantum Sniper!

But the problem was Jacob still lacked the equipment and technology to create it, and he didnʼt have time to create that complex equipment from scratch himself. So, he could only use these substitutes until he had optimal equipment.

Now that he used those guns to get rid of the One Fist Team as quickly as possible, they can shoot two more AFK Bullets before he is replaced with newly built Black Titans with epic rank materials he gathered in the epic plains.

He hadnʼt come here unprepared, and the Black Titans were his main weapon because they also didnʼt have ridiculous recoil like the Iron Titan Sniper, and he could only hope the one made with the epic rank materials could hold on much longer.

As Jacob moved in the misty passage, the door behind him closed, and at this moment, he felt something sticky on his skin, and then a noxious feeling struck him.

At this moment, the same static voice rang again,

”Welcome to the Wolf Sacrifice Checkpoint!

”You have to find the exit while being constantly affected by the Basic Epic Rank Whammy Poison!

”Good Luck!”

Jacobʼs eyes flashed with realization, and he finally understood why this mist was giving him such a feeling.

He then looked at the book as if it was laughing to its heartʼs content, and his eyes went sharp as blades, ”Itʼs not just simple poison mist, is it? Whammy means an evil or unlucky influence, which is in no way material but supernatural. This means itʼs a type of hex magic or at least its branch. Thatʼs why you were calling it interesting, right?”

”Oh? How do you reach that conclusion?” Immortika wrote.

”Because amidst this disgusting feeling, I can feel a faint resonance from the hex mana with this mist. Furthermore, my reason for entering this place was to find clues about my hex magic in the first place, and adding your tendency to leave awful clues, Iʼm pretty clear this is related to hex magic.” Jacob coldly stated.

”Hahahaha… Bravo… Bravo! Youʼre getting cleaver by the day. It seems all that training is finally bearing fruit. What a proud full moment this is…”

”And your tendency to spout bullshit is also getting ridiculous by every second.” Jacob scoffed as he moved with the mist.

Whatever this thing was, he wasnʼt affected by it all except for some noxious, sticky feeling; he was completely fine.

”Hehehe… since you already discovered a clue about Whammy, Iʼll give you a general introduction to what a Whammy is. A whammy is a physical manifestation of a curse integrated into different sorts of poisons. Unlike normal poison, Whammy Poison canʼt be cured by a simple antidote. Instead, any attempts to cure a Whammy Poison would only make it nastier.

”Only with strong Holy Magic and a proper antidote can a Whammy Poison could be cured. Miss even one, and before you know it, a Whammy Poison would turn into an undying evil!

”But itʼs just a most basic way to use Whammy Poison. However, the general introduction also ends here. Hahahaha… and do you know what others call the people who are the practitioners of Whammy Poison? Evil Poison Lords!”
