Cursed Immortality

"…where are they?"

"Hehehe… confident, aren't we? But I guess you are qualified to be confident in the rare plains now. Do you want to take action now or before you end this game of yours?" Immortika didn't answer but questioned instead.

Jacob answered without hesitation, "No, I'll take them out as soon as possible. They might run away if they witness my prowess. So, just tell me, I'll deal with them first before getting rid of these jokers. Completing the Cursed Blood Condensing is more important than anything!"

"Alright, you better put on a good show for me. I'll guide you to their locations as they are too well hidden. Only if you accelerate your heart at 15X will you be able to find them." Immortika revealed a terrifying fact that made Jacob feel alarmed.

'How could a descent of a legendary being would be so easy to hunt?' Jacob thought as he no longer dared to take the Cursed Blood Condensing lightly. He was basically dealing with high-caliber monsters like the infant wyvern.

At this moment, Jacob's figure, which was under every watchful eye's vision, suddenly vanished!

"Where did he go?" A black-clad figure jumping between trees without making any sounds exclaimed.

"Target is out of sight!"

These kinds of exclaims started to flow around the forest as all the people started to search madly for Jacob, creating a chaotic situation.

While Jacob was now moving like lightning in the west direction without making any sounds, he was so fast even those tier-6 Extraordinary couldn't see his shadow anymore.

Jacob took full advantage of the darkness and his superior physique to charge in the direction that Immortika was leading him. He didn't want to make his targets run and finished them off in one fell swoop.

Two hundred meters away from Jacob, two figures were standing on top of some kind of small round discs as they hovered ten meters apart from each other above the forest. But for some reason, they were invisible in hindsight.

Furthermore, they were both holding two cubes in their hands, and they were both showing the exact place where Jacob had vanished a few moments ago on the cubes' black surface, like a live video feed.

Moreover, these figures were wearing tight white robes, and there was black hourglass embroidered over their chests while their entire heads were tightly wrapped under black gauze. Even their eyes were not visible.

Under the dim moonlight, they looked like creepy mummified ghosts.

Suddenly, they turned their heads toward each other as eerie silence remained between them while they kept their head in each other direction.

Jacob appeared only twenty meters away from them behind a tree and looked at Immortika with uncertainty, "Why did you tell me to stop?"

"Because those two are standing ten meters above the sky wearing white robes like clowns. Can't you see them from here?" Immortika wrote.

Jacob was bewildered as he looked at the sky and even made a turnaround, but he didn't see a thing and frowned, "What are you talking about? There's nothing there."

"Oh? Hahahaha… it seemed they were using some kind of magic or a magic item to hide from the naked eye!"

"No, even if they are hiding, I should've heard their heart rate or breathing at least, but there is nothing, especially if they are between the range of hundred meters. Unless they are dark beings, I'm confident that no living being in the rare plains could hide in my hindsight." Jacob retorted.

"That's where you're wrong. There are myriad ways to hide one's breathing and heart rate, like the Dark Beings. Furthermore, you have yet to come in contact with true magic.

"The magic in type-1 plains is simply too crude. They don't even have proper magic scriptures to cultivate it. So, you naturally underestimate the use of magic. Anyhow, you will be able to detect them as long as you use your fluid acceleration at 15X."

Jacob wasn't flustered by Immortika's words as he knew it was right about the people of rare plains being crude when it came to using magic. Although he had yet to read the Type-1 Universal Magic Manual fully, he had already read the introduction, and he knew it was a basic magic scripture of basic elements.

He was putting it on hold because he didn't have time to waste because of Ellie's deadline. But now, he didn't have to worry about time, so he might as well be done with it after making this trip.

"So, in roundabout ways, you mean to tell me that those two probably have access to magic scriptures. I won't be surprised if they are some high-ranking members of the killer skull society or some high-ranking member of the bank." Jacob coldly stated as his heart rate suddenly started to increase at a terrifying speed.

When his heart rate crossed the 10X threshold, faint smoke started to rise from Jacob's person as his senses started to enhance. Even his vision became so clear in the night as he was looking at everything in plain daylight.

His hearing also increased as it rang, instantly breaking the 1-mile radius barrier, and now he could hear all those people who were now searching for him high and low even their heartbeats and bloodstream were clear as day. Not even those tiny crawling insects were hidden from his hearing.

However, to his surprise, he still didn't find those two-standing right above the sky, according to Immortika. Jacob's fluid acceleration with his epic body was not like what it used to be when he merely had a rare rank physique.

He knew his strength too well. If he wasn't wrong, then with every 5X acceleration, he could fight a higher tier being than him without breaking a sweat, not to mention his senses were even stronger than some epic being who didn't have connate high physique senses.

So, Immortika probably wasn't joking when it said he could not find them without using 15X acceleration because once he enters that state, he can hear and see the invisible electromagnetic waves in the human eye!
