Cursed Immortality

Chapter 324 Autarch (2)

?

Jacob looked at Autarch as if he was looking at a bottomless pit. Truth be told, he was expecting there to be limitations and absurd demands to nurture it, but he was never expecting those demands to be this absurd.

It was literally like having to cultivate two Cursed Immortality at the same time, and all that joy of acquiring a Fantastic Insect turned into smoke.

'If what it said is true, then when it reached the epic rank, it needed to consume the unique rank beings to increase its physical rank while at the unique rank…'

At this point, Jacob's mind went numb just thinking about the terrifying condition to let it evolve into the Legendary Rank. It finally occurred to him why there was never a legendary rank fantastic insect ever seen.

In comparison, he was more at ease in the magic core conditions. But he was still quite bitter about those conditions remaining unchanged even if Autarch ended up devouring a higher level being than it needed.

'Then why can titan tears able to bypass these absurd limitations? What is their background?' Jacob thought as the fog ahead was only becoming thicker.

Nevertheless, he knew he was not at that point where he should even think about unrevealing these mysteries, and he should focus on the present.

'I'll stick with the titan tears as long as I can while in the meanwhile, it shouldn't be a problem to let Autarch reach the peak of the rare rank…'

With such thought in mind, he said, "Very well, then I'll leave those six to you. But don't let them find out about what you are. Just destroy the body when you don't need it before moving on to the next target.

"In the future, we will have more ground rules when we go to the higher plains. With all the knowledge you have, I don't need to teach you just how dangerous this place is, and for survival's sake, we can't let our guard down even for a second.

"I won't interfere with your free actions as long as they won't bring trouble to both of us. All I want in return is for you to be extremely careful and master your abilities to perfection. I will be relying on your abilities to carve the path toward our bright future.

"Right now, your only task is to learn as much as you can, and if you discover something unusual, report it to me like if some memory related to Epic Rank.

"Oh, one more thing, can you use this guy's Star Watch and magic abilities despite devouring them at the same time?"

Autarch answered, "I will keep your instructions in mind. I should be able to use the Star Watch as long as the brain is active because, according to my memory, the life signal originated from the brain as well.

"As for using magic, I won't be a problem as long as I won't fully consume his magic core. It will work like the original owner. Although I can start or stop the brain devourer ability, I can make it slow a bit."

Jacob was quite astonished when he heard about the life signal's true secret, and he suddenly had another question, "Are Life Force and Life Signal not the same?"

"I don't know. I did not have any recollection of memory about the Life Force and only know about the Life Signal, which the Brain Emits when it is connected with the flesh body.

"It only stopped when the brain started to decompose, and I can easily stop it from happening with healing or rejuvenation potions or herbs. This is how I should be able to perverse the body from decomposing as well."

Jacob suddenly remembered how Pig Head's body only started to decompose after he stopped giving it the healing potions.

"It seemed you have already thought it through about how you will proceed with your future endeavors." Jacob praised.

"This is all thanks to Sir for giving this alchemist brain to me. With his rich memories and experiences, it was a piece of cake to prepare countermeasures for such weakness." Autarch emotionlessly stated.

Jacob didn't find this explanation wrong, as he also chose those alchemists for their powerful brains, but the result ended up far more than he could ever ask for.

"Alright, since you can control their star watches, remember my bank account number. From now on, you will transfer your target money into my account before you dispose of your target with a Star Watch.

"Moreover, if they have a space ring, then stash it away after taking anything important we can use for ourselves. Afterward, we can look for them later." Jacob shamelessly instructed.

He didn't care about what Autarch would think since this guy was a bottomless pit, and he needed as much money as he could get to nurture Autarch, so it should help as well.

Not to mention his plan for all those accumulated space rings in his pendant was also Autarch itself!

"I will follow your instructions." Autarch agreed without hesitation.

Pleased, Jacob then told Autarch his bank account number, which Autarch remembered instantly, and then with a thought, a small pile of space rings appeared between them.

"Take these space rings, and I want you to sort out materials in them within separate rings, like knowledge-related books in a separate ring, herbs in another, and finished products like potions, pills, and weapons, in different rings and don't use another ring unless the first one is full. This is your task which you have till the morning to finish before you hand them over to me.

"Another task for you to is the six outside. I'll let you deal with them as a test to see how much you can handle being someone else and deceiving them. Now you are dismissed if you don't have anything else you are curious about." Jacob stated coldly.

He had learned what he needed to know about the Brain Hunter and also achieved his goal now. He wanted to move on to his other important task.

Autarch collected all those space rings into the space ring Fredial was already wearing and stood up, "I'm not for the moment, and I will not disappoint you, Sir!"

Autarch then left the tent without saying an extra word.

Jacob's lips curled up, seeing Autarch leaving the tent, forming an icy smile, 'You won't, I know because I didn't go through all those troubles and took a huge risk just to suffer disappointment!'
