Cursed Immortality



"This one is accessible!"

Those emotionless words of Autarch's were music to Jacob's ears as he was really starting to feel like vomiting when he thought about his close shaves with death and all for what, for a bunch of locked rings, which he didn't even know were locked a few moments ago.

"What is inside?" Hiding his elation, Jacob asked calmly.

"First, this space ring's inner space is 100 Cubic Meters, not like the Advance Type-1 Rings, which only had ten cubic meters of space, which clearly made it a space ring above the type-1 rank.

"As for the items inside, there are 82 magic scrolls, three spears, four magic guns, a ship, many different potions, and pills, and all of them are advance-type-1, and some of them are even I don't recognize.

"There are also 19 books, a strange black cube, 23 more space rings, and lastly, there is a hexagram-shaped crimson token engraved with an unknown language which I didn't have any memory of. Most of the space of this ring is occupied by the 53-meter large blue ship, and only 14 cubic meters of free space remained." Autarch revealed.

Jacob's eyes shimmered with surprise when he heard just this ring alone was most likely to be a type-2 space ring, and all those materials inside made him even more ecstatic.

Because Autarch's memories could rival a Senior Grandmaster, and even he seemed not to recognize some of those potions and pills, which could only mean two things, they were either extremely rare or above type-1 rank as well.

As for those magic scrolls, Jacob had seen A-0 using some of them during his escape, and he knew the remaining ones would not be any less precious, and those extra 23 rings will be most likely hold even more wealth that A-0 couldn't store in this one ring alone!

Just that ship alone was worth Jacob's absolute attention, and it would not be some cheap ship either, considering A-0's status!

All in all, Jacob was content with just this ring's treasures, and when he thought about those other locked rings, his heart raced slightly as he didn't dare to imagine what could those closed rings hold in comparison to this open one.

'The Society is most likely after those locked rings as well, and that open ring should be that guy I killed. This made those locked rings even more precious than this one.' Jacob thought with scrutiny.

"Can you open the reaming two rings?" Jacob asked as he didn't tell Autarch to take out anything from that space ring yet, and instead, he wanted to confirm if the reaming two rings were open or also locked.

Autarch tried on Jacob's behest, but in the end, he shook his head, "They are also locked like the reaming seven. Only this one is open. Do you want me to look into the other 23 space rings in this one as well?"

"Give me the lock rings. We'll find a way to unlock them eventually and go ahead with the reaming 23 space rings." Jacob nodded without hesitation.

He stowed away the nine locked space rings in his pendant again as he had no intention of giving them away and seeking reconciliation with the Society. Because Jacob knew he was past the point of seeking forgiveness from them, and even if he returned all that he took, they would not be going to let him off.

At least he won't after suffering so much loss.

After ten minutes, Autarch was finally done with the 23rd space ring, as Jacob didn't disturb him in the entire process and silently waited.

Autarch finally spoke, "All of these space rings have 100 cubic meters of space. Nineteen of them are entirely filled with raw materials, and all of them are advance-type-1 rank. Most of them are extremely rare, and some of them even I don't recognize.

"One of the reaming four is filled with all types of nine-star magic cores, the second one is filled with weapons, and all of them seemed to be advance-type-1. The third space ring is filled with all sorts of potions and pills. While the last one is 10% filled with magic scrolls, and the rest is empty."

'So much? Just how rich is the Society, and did I really unknowingly cut off the snake's head? That person was that Important Grace after all, and that's why the one contacting me was not him but that woman because he was dead!'

Jacob was astonished as now it was almost confirmed that the person dying by his hands was really Important, Grace.

Furthermore, he could imagine just what it means to have an entire filled space of 100 cubic meters with just raw materials, and there are 19 of them, and only someone with top-level authority could hold this much wealth in an organization!

If Jacob was correct, then this entire wealth was akin to the entire treasury of the Society in the Rare Plains, and it ended up in his hand.

Then there were still those nine locked rings. Jacob now started to get why the Apocalyptic-S would make the mistake of contacting him, even going as far as to threaten him outright instead of taking silent actions.

There was something in those locked rings which was important enough to make her panicked, not the things in A-0's ring. The more Jacob thought in this direction, the more he felt he was almost close to the truth.

"It seemed this entire thing was far more dangerous than I had expected it to be. I have another task for you…" Jacob looked at Autarch and solemnly started to give me different instructions.

With a sense of crisis, Jacob meticulously made more adjustments to his plan of leaving the Rare Plains and was now even considering rejecting Hallberg since things were too dangerous for him alone. He can't babysit someone else.

However, this was still only a mere thought as it wasn't an option yet. There was still time to make the final decision.

"I'll follow your will." Autarch nodded in agreement after he heard Jacob's instructions.

Jacob coldly said as he stood up, "Good, then let's waste no time. We need to find a bigger place to sort out everything in one night. We'll leave for the Wild Nation after you're done mastering this item. Furthermore, we can't move on the ground anymore or travel slowly!"
