Cursed Immortality

Chapter 222 Might-Of-Destruction

?Jacob was vigilant when he guessed the possible background of this Might-Of-Destruction.

'Why would someone with such an identity contact me? Now how did he get my ID name, and from where?' The more he mulled over it, the more confused and apprehensive Jacob felt.

In the end, Jacob decided to accept the call before he made his watch's projection setting 'Blurry Black.' He didn't even want to show his masked face to whoever this person was.

The next moment, a blurry red figure's projection suddenly formed over his wrist, and a deep voice filled with natural arrogance sounded, "Little guy, you're quite daring to ignore my call, and now you're even hiding your face!"

Jacob frowned as he looked at the blurry hologram and calmly said in a cold tone, "I could say the same to you. Besides, I don't think you would be free enough just to answer any random call either, right?

"Now, tell me what you want and how you get my Star ID. I'm sure you're not bored enough to search just random names and then use your Star Privilege even to force some random nobody to have a chat!"

Jacob didn't mince his words. Although he knew the other party might have a terrifying background, so what?

He was in the middle of the wilderness, and he was pretty sure no one will be able to threaten him in rare plains. So he didn't have to listen to the other party's bullshit.

"Hahahaha… interesting. You're indeed interesting!" The other party guffawed instead of getting angry as if he was amused by Jacob's fearlessness.

Jacob frowned as he nearly cut the communication but still was patient enough to wait. He wanted to know why this guy was contacting him and for what reason.

Furthermore, the Star Network was probably not entirely confidential because of the Star Privilege existence. He was quite familiar with such a system. It was probably like a database formed by a corporation, and the higher your position, the more secrets you could access.

Still, he knew such Star Privilege wouldn't be just given to any random person. He only got the type-1 Star Privilege because he was the sole champion of the rare plains trial.

Although he didn't know what other method someone had to use to acquire the same Star Privilege, it might not be so simple, not to mention someone with type-2 or higher star authority.

Might-Of-Destruction stopped laughing as he meaningfully said, "Faceless Ancient, you alone cleared the Rare Plains Trial in less than a year's time right under the nose of those corpses. I must say you are quite something!"

Jacob's eyes widened when his secret was revealed like it was nothing, and he knew his guess about the Star Privilege was quite on point.

"Who are you, and how do you know this?!" He still pretended to panic to acquire more information.

Now he was even more sure this person was not a native of rare plains!

Might-Of-Destruction chuckled, "Now that's more like it. Since you have kicked those corpses in the balls, I'll tell you who I am!

"I'm the Chairman of Zodiac Warrior Alliance of Epic Plains, Gunnar!"

Jacob was stunned when the other party revealed his identity like it was nothing but a trifle thing.

'Chairman of Zodiac Warrior Alliance of Epic Plains, then this person might be as strong as an Epic-Tier-9!' Jacob presumed since he knew the Chairman of the strongest hegemony wouldn't be a weakling.

Gunnar chuckled at this moment, "Stunned, right? You might be confused about what is the 'Epic Plains' and if I'm playing a joke on you. Rejoice, I'm not!

"The Epic Plains are plain higher than Rare Plains, and Epic Rank is above the rank of Extraordinary. Consider this information a greeting gift!"

Jacob was momentarily speechless by this man's loose mouth. Still, he didn't want to antagonize the other party anymore since he was destined to come in contact with Gunnar because of his affiliation with the alliance.

There was no need to make such an enemy as long as there was no need to, especially when he was the weak one.

"I apologized for my previous rudeness since I never thought I would be personally contacted by Chairman Gunnar of all people." Jacob mildly spoke.

"No worries, even your plains four freedom lords don't have the right to speak to me like this, so it's only natural you will feel this way." Gunnar chuckled as he really didn't mind.

'What freedom lords?' Jacob was baffled by it since it was the first time he had heard such a term.

Still, he didn't show his ignorance and replied, "Indeed, but why do I have this honor? How may I help you?"

"I don't like talking with blurs!" Gunnar's tone suddenly turned sharp as he stated.

Jacob frowned as a hint of killing intent flashed past his eyes before he turned to normal as he calmly said, "I'm afraid I can't remove the blur right now. Or you will see something unpleasant unbecoming of your status, chairman. Please forgive me."

Gunnar remained silent for a moment before he sneered, "Hah, you're really something. Still refuse to show your face despite knowing who I am. Very well, I will get straight to the point, I have seen your data, and you are already affiliated with Zodiac Warrior Alliance.

"As long as you manage to become Rank-1 Zodiac Warrior in 5 years, I'll send someone to pick you up. This is only a one-time offer, and if you fail, I'd personally revoke your Alliance membership.

"Trust me; I have the authority to remove any reserve member and even ban them from entering the original alliance forever. The alliance has no place for weaklings!"

Gunnar's voice was icy cold at the end before his projection vanished. He had cut the call without even waiting for Jacob's reply.

Jacob remained standing on his spot for a moment in a daze before he chuckled as his expression went dark with forbidding, "You have the authority to remove the reserve members? Then you have no control over ranked members, I guess."

Jacob wasn't planning on leaving the Rare Plains until he thought he was ready to leave. Especially not with someone stronger than him and then being controlled by them.

As for reaching the Rank-1 Zodiac Warrior, it was a piece of cake for him. Five years were too long, and Gunnar will be going to regret ever revealing such a crucial piece of information to Jacob because of his arrogance!
