?Jacob was really astounded by the offer of Old Bigot Barbarian, which was by no way just as trifled as it sounded.
"May I ask why would you do that? I still have an unknown background, and who knows, I''m really the guy you were looking for and just fooling you. Aren''t you afraid of epting a skull within your ranks?" Jacob questioned.
The Old Bigot Barbarian coolly replied, "That''s why I want to see your star watch, because if you are a skull, then your Star Network ID would have the infamous Killer Skull Society''s skull symbol badge within your personal profile.
"Which could only be gained after you registered with their private server and you have the strength to enter their private server unless they''re blind.
"Simrly, if you join any servers of three hegemonies, you''ll have their symbol badges as well. These badges are like identity proof and could never be removed unless you could hack into the Star Network or get kicked out by the server owner.
"As for a skull leaving their private star server, it means a certain death. Now you understand why I want to see your star watch and why it is considered identity-proof.
"Once you registered with our country database, you''ll naturally get invited to our private star server, which will grant you the Level-2 Symbol Badge of our country citizen as well."
The Old Bigot Barbarian exined patiently, "As for your other identity, as long as you''re not an enemy of our country, then we don''t care. Since you have strength over tier-6 fighter, we''ll wee you with open arms, and all we ask for in return will be your help whenever needed."
''The Star Network Profile as an identity and the badges. It''s really just as he said. It is nearly impossible to fool someone if they''re not primitive and never came in contact with the starwork.
''To survive on rare ins, the starwork is essential, and no one seemed to doubt that thiswork could be hacked. Which alone is enough to make thiswork like an omniscient in everyone''s eyes.'' Jacob thought without replying to Old Bigot Barbarian.
He had to admit that he really required an identity and more information about these private star servers. Joining the ranks of Golden Swords Country was the easiest way, at least until he was ready to be independent again.
Or he could just simply trick them and escape after he reached thends. No one could stop him at that time.
But if he wanted to do that, he still needed to show his personal profile, or he had to kill all of them to leave this ce with an intact ck ship.
However, it was the most foolish n because just as the Old Bigot Barbarian said; he had underestimated the naval forces of the locals and now he could either abandon the ship and swim toward thends or try picking a fight with him.
Both choices led to him being hunted down by the Golden Swords County, at least until he was in the water.
Jacob gave a deep look to the Old Bigot Barbarian, who still had that calm, amiable smile. ''What a wily punk,'' He sneered inwardly before he nodded. "Alright, I''ll agree to join your ranks."
Old Bigot Barbarian''s smile widened. "Alright, follow me. We''ll talk about official business in my cabin. Let those men take care of your belongings and ship."
He then shoots a meaningful nce at the Bigot Barbarian behind Jacob, which made the former shudder, and he quickly sprang into action.
Jacob didn''t mind since there wasn''t anything worthy in that ship because anything precious was already in his pendant, so he calmly followed the Old Bigot Barbarian inside.
"Oh, I forget to introduce myself. I''m Deputy Admiral of Golden Swords Country, Mn Wo Bigot." Mn introduced himself with his rank.
Jacob inly replied, "Just call me Jack, and I have no title."
Mn didn''t mind as he asked curiously, "So, where did you find that bastard Earth yer and where are you from?"
"First, can you tell me how you know that this ship was on Earth yer exactly?" Jacob was confused about this because if the Killer Skull Society stole the ck Ship, then how did they know currently it was in Earth yer''s hand?
''Could it be they had some kind of surveince function on the ship as well?''<novelsnext></novelsnext>
However, Jacob vanquished that notion since they were surprised by finding him instead of Earth yer, and they were probably hoping to capture him alive since they try to speak first, not shoot on sight.
Mn chuckled, "Heh, you might not know, but the Killer Skull Society is made with a bunch of misfits and twisted bastards. They all believed in equality and loath the current civil system.
"Yet their actions arepletely different. They plunder, kill, rape, and destroyed cities for the sake of their foolish cause. Not only that, but they liked to show it off and rub it on everyone who tries to oppose them."
His voice turned icy. "They would make video files or take pictures of their glorious deeds and then post them in Star Network News. Your watch didn''t have that Star Network News feature in your starwork, right?"
Jacob grimaced and nodded, "Indeed."
"Don''t worry, as long as youplete the final verification with the Destiny Star Corporation, it will appear on its own, and then you''ll get all the news rted to the Rare Freedom ins.
"Anyhow, I was briefing you about how we know this ship was with Earth yer of Killer Skull Society.
"Over two years ago, a shipment of twelve ck ships was heading toward the Ice Nation, but it was intercepted by a bunch of skulls. Then, like before, they posted this news with great pride on the Star Network News and the names of skulls who were involved in this."
Jacob was speechless by this and couldn''t help but asked, "Aren''t they afraid they would get caught by doing this kind of foolish action? I mean, aren''t a dark organization like killer skull society would be more secretive about their member''s details and what they do?"
"That''s the thing, Jack. They do this to promote their organization and draw more hot-blooded youths or some poor souls who were once mistreated by the system or simply didn''t want to follow it or the rules.
"While it is almost impossible to track them down because the Star Network is very strict with its freedom policies and privacy of their users, and it ispletely wless.
"So, organizations like the Killer Skull Society could use it openly to recruit more skulls and multiply their numbers. Even though the starwork is helpful for our civilization and bought revolutionary changes, but nothing is without consequences.
"Nevertheless, we could only me ourselves for being so weak that we couldn''t influence the likes of Destiny Star Corporation. Ah, I''m being sentimental again and drifted from the main topic." Mn smiled wryly with a hint ofmentation.
"The ck Ship AEER-9322 you were using appeared over a year ago when the Earth yer posted a picture of him driving it in the star ocean and taunting the authorities to not be able to capture them.
"Earth yer was quite infamous for assassinating many influential figures, so his ID was a ck ID in our database. Every news regarding him was a top priority.
"When the ck Sea Company alerted us about the ship signal being found in this area in the morning, they naturally sent me to make sure of capturing that prick alive or at least bring back his corpse," Mn revealed.
At this time, they finally reached a cabin and entered. It was far more spacious than Jacob''s and morevish.
After they sat down, Mn continued, "But instead of that bastard Earth yer, I met you, and it was a good call to not bombard the ship when I saw you standing on top of the ship. Or I''m afraid we all have been dead already, right?"
Jacob merely responded, "I would indeed kill anyone who would try to kill me, and that Earth yer was the same case.
"I was living in an isle for many years far away from this ce, and that fellow happened to be testing his firearms on that isle, and that''s how I came in the possession of that ship and this Star Watch.
"But I won''t lie to you by saying that I was unaware of the rare ins'' existence. It''s just that I have no means to travel here with all those dangers in the star ocean. However, I took the chance presented, and this is all I have to say about my background." Jacob made some hoax story that sounded somewhat absurd but still in the realm of reality.
As for how he got there or what he was doing there, it''s on them to figure it out, and he could tell they might really not care as long as his te was clean!
