Cursed Immortality

Chapter 622 A Forbidden Dream

Dark Marquis Fulwood belonged to the Spirit Tree Race and on top of that he was second son of Dark Duke Tomas! Thatʼs why he always held more authority than Jethro and had always kept him in check.

But Jethro sudden betrayal and his identity as a Star Hacker Spy directly finished the competition between the two men which had been going on for decades. If anything, Fulwood was thrilled when he found out about this and even wanted to reward Jacob for this favor.

Now, he can lawfully annex all Jethroʼs assets and extort those loyal to him or had dealings with him. Although the top-level figures of the Dark City didnʼt talk about it, Fulwood was very ambitious and greedy for power. So, everyone stayed out of his way and avoided any conflict.

At this moment, Fulwood in an ocean green attire was calmly hearing Heathʼs report on the incident while sitting on his high chair.

After Heath presented him with the eventʼs report, Fulwood coolly questioned, ”What about their belongings like space rings?”

Heath expression fell a little before he calmly replied, ”We didnʼt find any space rings on the corpses, but we do find intact teleportation talismans, they probably didnʼt know that there is a space sealing array in the Dark Room vicinity. Except them some tatter armors. I think Dark Viscount has already taken them and I didnʼt ask since he was the one who killed them so according to the rules he has every right to have their belongings.”

Fulwoodʼs lips curled up in a cold smile. ”My Earl Heath, you are always upright and follow the rules, yet you overlooked the fact that those space rings belonged to the Star Hackers. Anything belonging to the star hackers must be treated as suspicious items and canʼt be taken away until investigation.

”What if there was a high-ranking Star Hacker and there are some extremely important clues about the Star Hackers whereabouts or their nefarious plans? I know it has become common knowledge that the Star Hackers always keep their secrets within their star watches, but we canʼt overlook anything, right?”

Heath frowned slightly before replying, ”Will all due respect your highness, I think we shouldnʼt antagonize Dark Viscount Jack. I can tell heʼs far stronger than me, and he seems to be a very meticulous person. Heʼs someone worth having on your side!”

Fulwood was momentarily surprised when he heard such a high praise from Heath as he knew how arrogant this guy was despite his straightforward demeanor.

”It appears that this Dark Viscount Jack is far more capable than Iʼm giving him credit for. I admit that killing all guys within a minute before your arrival including the traitor Jethro as his prowess was a little lacking compare to my own.

”He even seems to know about poisons, and now he left such an impression on you. Alright, Iʼll overlook this transgression. This will be enough to show my generosity. Summon him in three days, Iʼll hold a banquet for him, and tell him Iʼm looking forward to meeting him.” Fulwood smilingly stated before he stood up and left the meeting hall.

Heath slightly bowed his head and left with a grim look on his face, ʼThis wastrel will never learn!ʼ

Fulwood approached the dark room within his mansion while deep in thought, ʼFaceless Ancient, according to father, heʼs an ascender from the epic plains. Not only that, but heʼs someone who my little niece recruited, and he has many achievements in the epic plains as well.

ʼWho couldʼve thought that someone from that barren place had such capabilities? If Iʼm not wrong, he might be a hidden hermit who was living in the epic plains or avoiding some powerful enemies.

ʼNow the Star Hackers also targeted him out of the blue and went as far as to activate a spy of Jethroʼs caliber and many more. So, the enemy he was hiding from should be the Star Hackers.

ʼFather seemed to be quite interested in him now and even told me to send him to the territory. But didnʼt this mean he would be a helper to my little niece then, which would be such a waste?ʼ A cruel glint flashed past Fulwoodʼs eyes, ʼIʼll make sure he knows who has true power in the unique plains. If he knew better than Iʼll consider sending him back as my familyʼs recruit, if not then…humph!ʼ

While Fulwood was making his plans revolving around Jacob, the man himself has already arrived at the Dark Marquis Estate and without wasting any time, he entered the door room again which was ten times bigger than the Dark Viscount Estateʼs Dark Room.

But this time, Jacob order the butler to alert him when his items arrives or if someone came from the dark city guard regiment or the Dark Marquis Estate.

Jacob didnʼt enter the Dark Battle Arena since there was still time before Nyx would fully absorb the nightmare conqueror seeds, and there was still a lot of progress to be done in Flame Calamityʼs nightmare conqueror seed.

Instead, he sat on a work table and flipped his hand, a blue scroll appeared in his hand and he instantly opened it on the large table. It was a blueprint filled with many parts and information.

This was the new weapon he wanted to create after going through many trials and experiments within the nightmare realm, and Nyx also played a big part in running simulations whenever he was busy with his magic training.

But Jacob knew it was still lacking in some area so he wanted to finish it as soon as possible and only then would he be truly at ease.

ʼQuantum Sniper and Quantum Bullets were designed after I managed to peer into the mysteries of space barely. But I always knew that it was almost impossible to create them with my worldʼs technology. Heh, I donʼt even know if they can even work the same.

ʼThat year, when I give away the Quantum Sniper module, I never told them that to make it work, the true core of the Quantum Sniper, the Quantum Atomic Reactor was mandatory because it was against my will and never gave QAEʼs module. Even if they had managed to create the Quantum Sniper, it mightʼve been destroyed after firing a signal bullet, taking hundreds of miles radius area down with it.ʼ

Jacobʼs eyes shimmered with dark ambition, ʼBut now, after getting my hands on the space runes, Iʼm confident I can create the most powerful weapon by combining my forbidden creations. At that time, no one would be able to escape death in Unique Plains!ʼ
