Chapter 560 Greed is Curse
??Not only did Tenpletely uproot the Killer Skull Society in the Epic ins with Jacob''s weaponry help, but just before contacting Jacob, he even managed to kill S-0 when she was trying to flee the epic ins after trial; he hated her the most in the entire world since bought him into this mess.
Furthermore, he also got the entire treasury of the Killer Skull Society from their headquarters.
But greed knows no bounds, as right afterpeting for his revenge, he sets his sights on Jacob and his secret. He had done deep research on Jacob, and by adding the information the Killer Skull Society had gathered on him, he found that Jacob was ascending from the Common ins.
So, he instantly thought that Jacob was like him, who had discovered some kind of inheritance that helped him reach this point, and it was most likely even more profound than his own.
That''s why he made a n to target Jacob, and once he seeded, all Jacob''s secrets will be his to take. Moreover, he bes even more determined when he discovers the medallion secret from the Killer Skull Society.
He found a record that the medallion was the key to escaping the lesser ins, which were abination of Common, Rare, Epic, and Unique ins. But to use it, one had first to discover the gateway, which was hidden in the unique ins.
The Killer Skull Society has been researching it for the Dark Beings for years now, and they were also the ones who captured a Zodiac Night Guardian. In truth, all the informationes from the Killer Skull Society.
Lastly, Ten also found that the Killer Skull Society was established by the Dark Beings to infiltrate the ranks of the Life faction and gather information. But it has another purpose, which was to research artificial life inspired by none other than the ATLAS!
However, they were never able to seed until recently when they had a breakthrough in themon ins, which waster ruined by none other than Jacob when he took all their data.
In the end, they weren''t able to reim it, so the Dark Beings stopped paying attention to them and even cut off their support. The final straw breaks when Jacob bes the unique ins trial sole champion, and the Dark Beingspletely give up on them.
That''s the main reason Ten got the chance to uproot thempletely, and now there was no longer any Killer Skull Society in the epic ins. Furthermore, the unique ins also didn''t have any Killer Skull Society. It wasn''t like they didn''t try to create one, but the powers there never allowed it to rise and always took care of them before they could dip their fingers into the deep waters of the Unique ins.
All in all, the Killer Skull Society was now over as for their lower ins branches, they will also be exterminated sooner orter without the Dark Beings or higher ins support.
Anyhow, Ten came here for Jacob to get a new start so he could shine in the Unique ins with Jacob''s secret. But s, he had never imagined that Jacob was even more ruthless and cautious than them, and he ended up bing the prey.
After listening to all of this, Jacob was quite moved by Ten''s tenacity and determination. But he also scoffed in the end since he picked up the wrong target, and now everything he had belonged to Jacob.
''So, lesser ins are thebination of four conflict ins. Ifbined with all the uncharted territories scattered throughout the star ocean, then this should also be considered a lesser gxy of Taurus.
''Still, a gateway to the higher ins exists in the conflict ins, which means if someone wanted to go to the legendary ins, they had to go through the unique ins first. What a mess these zodiac ins are, and I seemed to be in the epicenter of them.'' Jacob sighed as he mulled over all the information he got from Autarch.
At least he knew the journey ahead wouldn''t be so simple.
"What kind of fortuitous opportunity does this guy get?" Jacob asked as he was quite interested in this since this opportunity helped Ten to be the Society Killer of today.
"He discovered a ruin of some ancient civilization of a race called Cosmic Goblins. He only managed to find a broken totem, which, upon touching, merged with his brain. It was because of this totem that his bloodline showed signs of atavism, and he awakened the bloodline abilities of his race.
"But for some reason, he was stuck at the peak of epic rank, and he felt that something was missing. That was one of his reasons to capture you, sir, for he thinks you also have some kind of totem." Autarch emotionlessly replied.
Jacob was surprised, and realization dawned upon him, "A mysterious totem, huh? Whatever, since it is gone, it''s useless to us. But his puppeteer art was quite astounding. You should see if you can learn them since your abilities are quitepatible."
"Indeed, they are quite insightful, especially his research on making substitute puppets, which sir saw upon his arrival." Autarch nodded in agreement.
"Alright, leave his space ring behind and transfer all his money into my ount. Then, you can continue with the absorption of titan tears. You have reached the tier-7 of epic magic rank with 4 barrels. Once you''re done, I want you to turn all the crewmates except Sofie into your puppets.
"They seemed to have noticed that they can''t sleep anymore. So, getting rid of them now will save up some inconvenience, and we don''t have to worry about their loyalty." Jacobmanded coldly.
Autarch didn''t hesitate to give Ten''s space ring to Jacob and then transfer all his wealth to Jacob as well, which was a staggering 188 billion ZC!
He then left toplete his new task, leaving Jacob alone.
''Since this is out of the way. All that is left is to invite the Dark Marquis. I''ll start once Autarch is done!''
Jacob''s eyes shimmered with anticipation. He was about to start his voyage to the Unique ins!
