Cursed Immortality

Chapter 372 In Dire Straits! (9)

When the two groups were busy shouting insults at each other, Jacob took full advantage of this situation. He knew these people no longer considered him a threat and only a caged animal who they could kill or release on a whim.

However, he was more like a ticking time bomb, and unless they had a crew like Captain Free Sword or completely suppressed his movements, they couldnʼt fully subdue him, and he would not remain sitting and do nothing either.

Jacob throws some more pills into this mouth, and the magic core has already been turned into a pile of sand in his hand after replenishing his mana for 10% capacity.

The next moment, four glowing atomic grenades appeared in his hand, and with deadly intent in his eyes, he activated them all and then threw them down.

Without hesitation, Jacob used full power to fuel the bronze disc and started to fly upward. He knew better than anyone that just one of those atomic grenades was enough to blow up a city around a hundred miles radius into oblivion, and he had used four of them at once. Furthermore, each of those grenades was highly radioactive.

Jacob had created ten of them for just this sort of situation, but he never expected to use four of them all, not even in the epic plains.

Nevertheless, this was his only chance to escape these people because he noticed that when the atomic bullet hit the sub, the explosion had thrown their tracking off, and he was sure it was because of the radioactive waves generated from the plutonium.

Now he wanted to achieve the same thing, but on a massive scale and for as long as possible, and if he had to take the risk of being the center of this madness, he was willing to do it!

On Jacobʼs body, another full-body black outfit appeared. It was covering his face as well, and not even a strand of his hair was out in the open. This outfit was made with lead (Pb-82) just to protect himself from this sort of situation where he canʼt handle the radiation.

After just five seconds of Jacob dropping the four atomic grenades into the ocean, a massive brightness suddenly went off in the blue ocean, followed by an instantly strong sonic wave, and then it was like an apocalypse had arrived!

The water level instantly rose, but it was being incinerated at the same time because the temperature instantly rose like a volcano.

All the ships present in the vicinity were completely overturned by this unexpected situation, and it was just a split-second detail of what happened.

Because with a second, the brightness had already started to cover the water at a terrifying speed while the thick smoke was still rising higher and higher.

Even Jacob, who has a head start, was almost instantly enveloped by the insanely high-temperature green smoke cloud, which has nowhere near its peak state yet.

Jacob had naturally never been in the middle of an atomic explosion of four atomic bombs before, and he only presumed everything by his knowledge. But only after when he caught up in the explosion did he understand just how terrible this idea had been!

Because even with all his preparation, he was thrown off his course by the sheer shockwave, and the lead outfit he was wearing started to melt! Now Jacob was just like a hair in the middle of a lave storm!

Meanwhile, the explosion was so massive that it could be heard from even thousands of miles, and the rising mushroom cloud was so enormous that it could be seen by the natives of the epic plains who live closer to the coastal areas.

Even faint tremors started to run through the lands before massive tilde waves started to rise, and the situation was just starting to escalate.

Captain Free Sword and his crew also experienced the aftermath more than anyone since they were not that far away from the epic star ocean.

They even thought they were under attack, but when they all saw the glowing mushroom cloud on the horizon and massive tilde waves coming in their way while the temperature was rising with every second, they were alarmed!

Captain Free Swordʼs expression was extremely solemn as he said to Harold, ”Someone has just used a Unique Grade Radioactive Explosive. Find out if our spokesperson is still alive or not. He better be wearing that armor, or without it, it would be a huge waste of resources. If heʼs alive, have him investigate who has this sort of explosive might under their control and why they used it in this place!

”It seemed we have underestimated the Epic Plains, and it wonʼt be easy to achieve our goal.” His lips suddenly rose in a ghastly smile as he saw the massive tilde wave fully enveloping his ship without any hint of panic, ”This place might be worth plundering as well…”

Just as his voice trailed off, the tilde wave fully swallowed the ship, but just a moment before that, a dark blue barrier appeared around the ship.

The authorities of the Epic Plains were also alerted by this massive explosion and its repercussion, and they quickly launched an investigation.

But two parties have some idea what this explosion might be and where it has happened.

Lucy wore a grave expression as she was looking at her star watch, and a recording of the coastal areas being ravaged by the tidal waves and a massive mushroom cloud covering the entire sky was being posted on the star news.

”Did that old pervert take action personally?” She muttered with a hint of trepidation.

But Lucy didnʼt know even Ellie and Nelsenʼs expressions were not much different than hers right now while they were also watching the videos on the news.

Ellie muttered in bewilderment at this moment while she looked at her equally startled father and asked, ”D-did you sell one of your bombs to that bitch behind my back?!”
