Cursed Immortality



Jacob was in complete bafflement about all this. Everything happened so fast and abruptly that before he knew something was even happening, he was looking at Captain Free Sword's malicious smiling face while the stealth triangle was lying there in two pieces.

Jacob's first reaction was naturally to retaliate in full force, but the moment this thought came into his mind, and he tried to move his body, he left with nothing but horror because his entire body went stiff as a ghastly pressure suddenly descended on him.

The pressure was heavy, Jacob felt a mountain crushed down on him, and he tried to use his fluid acceleration to escape from it. Still, the gap in power was simply too much, and he was only able to resist for another moment before he fell over to his knees.

Now, Jacob was finally spooked as he panted heavily under that pressure, and the first thing that came to his mind was to run away in any way possible, but he couldn't even breathe properly, much less move at full speed.

"Hoho, he was able to last 1 second under Captain's pressure despite being only an Epic. What a powerful ant!" A sneering yet heavy voice chuckled in derision.

Only now, Jacob got to know that there was more than just one person present around, and he didn't even notice them until he spoke!

"Now, now, Harold, this is not how we speak with guests." Captain Free Sword smilingly chided the other giant standing a few meters away from kneeling Jacob's side.

Right at this moment, the pressure on Jacob suddenly vanished, and he could finally breathe properly, but his entire body was filled with cold sweat. He was now feeling true fear which he hadn't felt since the time he was reincarnated into Decker's lab.

The most flabbergasting thing was Jacob didn't even know who in the world he appeared here, and his stealth triangle's radar system didn't pick anything at all.

Then this could only mean these people were terrifying, and the technology they had was far superior to anything he had ever seen.

"I hope now you will understand that any and all of your efforts will be meaningless, and they will only make your life far harder. Right now, you are my esteemed guest, and you really want to keep it that way because if you become my prisoner, I can assure you I have no pity for my prisoners like I respect my guests!" Captain Free Sword coolly spoke, "So here is what we are going to do. I'll give you respect, and you will show me equal courtesy as your host. If you understand, then tell start by revealing your face and introducing yourself."

"Cursed Immortality!" Jacob instantly summoned Cursed Immortally while closely listening to Captain Free Sword. He knew he was in very big trouble right now, and he needed to know just who he was dealing with before he could react appropriately.

Furthermore, he finally thought about Autarch and instantly summoned him back, and no one seemed to notice or care about the crab lying there, so his retrieval went quite well.

The moment cursed immortality appeared, without even Jacob asking, it wrote without any of its usual jokes.

"It seemed all that luck of yours finally ran out. The huge log in front of you is a Unique-Tier-8 Combatant, Horned Ogre, and he is a direct descendant of a Legendary Rank, Demonic Ogre!

"There are 24 more Horned Ogre present in this place, and all of them are Unique Rank Combatants. Then there are also nine more Unique Rank Sorcerers. All in all, you are in a huge mess, so you better think twice before you open your mouth, or else it's been nice knowing you…Hehehe…"

Jacob's heart sank to rock bottom because he was really in huge trouble right now, and he didn't even know how in the world he encountered so many Unique Rank Experts while being so close to the Epic Plains.

Now, he finally understood why he and his stealth triangle ended up in this state because he simply didn't stand a chance against someone of Unique Rank with Unique Technology under their command.

As for why Immortika was calling them Combatants or Sorcerers, it was related to a species evolution that they took after they entered the Epic Rank.

The Species who were good in close-quarters combats and powerful physiques embarked on the path of a Combatant and had a very high affinity with Combat Magic, which required mostly weapons and close-quarters battles.

While the Wiser Spices would walk the path of Sorcerers, which is the path of pure magic, with powerful long rang spells, more mana, high-level comprehension abilities, and special innate ability.

However, Unique Species were even more terrifying because their magic cores were no longer called the Star or Epic Star Magic Cores but either Combatant Unique Magic Cores or Sorcerer Unique Magic Cores.

There was a reason for this which was a Unique Magic Core holder could etch one corresponding rank Magic Spell on their magic core with each successful new tier. Which then allows them to use those magic spells with a simple thought.

It was the same ability as someone with innate magic spells like Jacob or Autarch, and that's why Unique Rank Beings were so terrifying, not to mention their superior physical traits. Even an Epic Tier-9 Being can't last much longer against a newly advanced Uniuqe-Tier-1 Being.

Furthermore, if it was a Combatant species, then you are dead because their bodies can match Unique Rank Treasures!

Right now, Jacob's physical power is equivalent to an Epic-Tier-2, and with his fluid acceleration, he can match those with an Epic-Tier-5 Combatant or maybe Tier-6 if he gives it his all and the other party doesn't have to practice a Scripture. At the same time, his biggest advantage was his unrestrained Hex Magic on the Epic Ranks.

However, when it came to a Unique Rank, he was as helpless as an ant!
