?Inside a cavern a few miles away in the forbidden forest,


    Jacob had Harrison put the still unconscious A-10000 on the floor and then tell him, "Go and wipe out every troll in this forest and then patrol this area. If anyone approached, kill them without asking. Here''s your reward. You did well. Now go."


    He tossed a small vial filled with ck liquid toward Harrison, who quickly caught it with shining eyes and bowed, "Thank you, My Lord, I won''t disappoint you!" He then quickly left toplete this mission given by Jacob.


    Jacob''s eyes shimmered with a peculiar glint as he watched excited Harrison leave to hunt trolls and maybe absorb the ck liquid as well to increase his strength.


    But all Jacob actually wanted was to send him away since he didn''t want to let anyone see what he was about to do with A-10000, and sending Harrison in the open was also another part of his n.


    Jacob started a fire. Everything was prepared, even his newly built distition equipment, which was smaller than the old one but more advanced. In his time in his privately built gunsmith workshop, Jacob prepared everything beforeing here.


    He knew he didn''t have time to waste if he wanted to hunt down powerful members sent here by the Killer Skull Society and the three hegemonies. He needed to raise his strength with every hunt!


    Jacob chose this spot because this was well hidden and it was closer to the earthen kingdom''s capital.


    After Jacob was done with the fire, he moved toward the A-10000 with his sharp short sword in his hand.


    "Let''s walk you up."


    The next moment, Jacob shed his sword at A-10000''s legs…


    "Ahhhhhhh…" A-10000 abruptly opened his eyes wide and shrill screamed at top of his lungs. He looked at his cleaved legs with an aghast look in his bloodshot eyes.


    "If you don''t stop screaming, I''ll cut your hand next." Jacob''s nonchnt, yet perplexed, a voice rang.


    But how could A-10000 stop screaming with that horrifying pain in his legs which nearly drives him insane? But with his strong willpower, he still managed to suppress it and felt sluggish with all that blood overflowing.


    Jacob spoke again, "I just want to know where is the Dark Elf and when she wille back. As well as who are the other three people you were mumbling about, as well as where are they right now, and what is their strength? If your answer satisfied me, I''ll kill you without any pain, or I''ll throw you in that fire and cook you alive."


    A-10000 looked at Jacob with an appalled look in his eyes, but he knew death was inevitable, so he conveyed with some difficulty, "S-she''s in a secretb behind a waterfall in the west of Silver Wood Forest of Aureate Kingdom… conducting experiments… on cannibals. She woulde to… collect… titan tears in two days…


    "The information about three seniors is only known by A-9999, and I only know one of them is a three digits skull which could only mean a Rare-Tier-6… species!


    "N-Now, kill me, and I''ll wait for you on the other side!" A-10000 looked at Jacob with madness and hatred as if he won''t be able to live this time.


    Jacob, however, remained expressionless and nodded. "You might have to wait forever on that side since I won''t being there… ever…"


    The next moment, Jacob''s sword turned in a dark streak and shed through A-10000''s neck, cleaving it clean. He gave him a painless death.


    When A-10000''s head rolled on the ground, the mask on his face fell, and a lion-like face with slightly human features appeared.


    ''Lion Head Orc indeed.'' Jacob remembered the appearance of this specie since he won''t get anything out of them in the future.


    Without dy, he cut open A-10000''s chest, and pull out his heart, and then started the distition process. He knew his time was short and needed to raise his power before hunting A-9999 down.


    Because it would still take some time before she noticed the situation in the Earthen Kingdom and came looking for what happened. He won''tpletely believe the time frame of two days A-10000 given him.


    He then skinned A-10000''s body, and he decided to keep his skin to make a vest since it was sturdier than his tiger''s bull hide. Soon, gutted A-10000 was skewered on top of the fire, and it would be ready for eating with the heart essence.


    Jacob smiled contentedly when he saw both high-tier meat and heart essence getting ready, and he felt his decision of staying was indeed right.<novelsnext></novelsnext>


    "Cursed Immortality!"


    Thest time he summoned Immortika was when he inquired about A-10000 and A-9999''s species and ranks.


    The moment it appeared, he saw a string of ''Haha'' and instantly felt perplexed.


    Jacob ignored its deliriousugh and asked, "How much percentage will this Common Tier-12 will give me and then Rare Tier-1?"


    Jacob wanted to be ready in case the percentage was much greater than his titan tears'' supply.


    Right now, with his own jar and the jar he got from A-10000, he had over eight thought drops of titan tears, which were enough to sustain all the way up to 100%.


    Becausest time, at the fifty percentpletion rate, one drop of titan tear quenched his hunger by 1%. If at 60% it took two drops at one percent or even three drops at 1% percent, and if he added the meat of corresponding quality then achieving a 100% heart process without any hitch should be possible.


    Immortika replied, "Hahaha… and here I thought you would run away from this golden opportunity, but you didn''t disappoint me at all. So, as a reward, I''ll tell you, this Lion Head Orc will add approximately 16% or 19% to your current progress rate.


    "This will take you 68% or directly to 70%. Then, if you hunt that dark elf, she should be able to give you over 20% progress rate. But as a fair warning, if you inject a Rare Specie Heart Essence, the heart essence of Common Tier Species will no longer have any effect on you.


    "This means, you will have toplete the reaming percentage with another rare tier species. But I guess it didn''t matter anymore since more prey had arrived… hahahaha…"


    Jacob''s eyes shimmered with glee when he read this, and can''t help but state, "What if I absorbed the mutants'' heart essence first and then the Dark Elf''s will it affect the percentage of her heart essence?"


    "The effect of her heart essence will decrease by 5% every time you cross a ten percent limit.


    "Furthermore, if those mutants were created with the same method and genes, simply put, if those mutants were created with lets supposed humans and hob trolls, then after you absorbed one of their heart essences, the other mutants with the same gene structure won''t work on you anymore.


    "But if these clowns created mutants with uniquebinations, then they might work. Besides, after you absorb this lion head orc''s heart essence, the effect of Common Tier-9 or below will only give you three or four percent maximum.


    "So, I suggest not wasting more time and stop being a worrywart. After you reach a 90%pletion rate, your strength should be around Rare-Tier-4 or 5, and if you add 9X fluid eleration in the mix, you can crush a Rare-Tier 9 like crushing an ant!"


    Jacob''s eyes narrowed when he read this, and won''t help but think about what Immortika just suggested seriously. But the problem was he wasn''t confident in controlling even 3X eleration, much less 9X. His limit was 2X.


    ''Well, I''ll think of it after I reached 90%. I would get enough information from the Dark Elf, and if I can really hunt someone from that group, I won''t hesitate. This way, I could leave much sooner without risking my life,'' Jacob mused.


    This new revtion opened more paths in front of Jacob, and he discovered he didn''t even need to sow discord anymore.


    Nevertheless, he still didn''t know what kind of step arrived after hepleted the second level of cursed heart emergence, so it was better to be on guard.


    After a few hours, the heart essence wasplete, and the meat was cooked.


    Without further dy, Jacob injected the warm heart essence of a Common-Tier-12 species.


    The moment the heart essence simmered in his heart, the heart rate suddenly started to increase, and he felt his blood turn scorching hot.


    Within seconds, Jacob was already on the verge of entering 1X eleration. He quickly tried to meditate to calm his nerves, which was extremely painful and difficult.


    But he knew better than anyone that if he didn''t take control, it would be extremely dangerous if his heart rate kept rising without any restraint.


    However, he had underestimated amon tier-12 specie''s heart essence, and he entered the 1X eleration in five minutes and his heart rate was still climbing!
