Cursed Immortality

Chapter 581 Plundering the Dead Island (4)

?After issuing Autarch the command, Jacob emptied the vault filled with space rings. There were a couple of thousands of them, and surprisingly, they were all unlocked, and upon peering into them, they were all filled with thousands of crimson and blue pills.

Jacob knew this wealth was startling in the community of Dead Faction. Although he couldn't use them, he knew how to turn them into profit.

Next, Jacob started to look through the big lab, especially the books, and after skimming through some of them, his eyes shimmered with ecstasy as they were all about dark alchemy, and there were also a few pill formulas listed in them.

Even the Life Pills formula was within them, and more pills were used by dark beings. He pocketed them all and left their study to Nyx. Afterward, the most interesting thing in the lab was Thone's private notes and insights on dark alchemy.

According to dark alchemy ranks, Thone was an advanced unique Rank Dark Alchemist, and he could refine advanced unique rank Dark Medicines.

Furthermore, Thone was researching Battle Puppet, which was somewhat similar to the Killer Skull Society's Mutants. But unlike the mutants, the battle puppets were refined corpses that could devour life crystals and unleash power beyond their initial tiers when they were alive.

The patched corpse on the table was the result of hundreds of years of Spirit Magic Dead King's research, and he had given his most loyal men like Thone the task to continue to research it so they could perfect this battle puppet.

According to Thone's research, he was in charge of perfecting the magic runes that could devour the life crystals and turn them into raw power like batteries, and he was very close to achieving it.

But alas, now all this research fell into Jacob's hand, and the most protected secret of Magic Spirit Dead King was known to Jacob. Furthermore, upon closely reading the results of this research, Jacob had some insights since he already had examined the Killer Skull Society mutants.

If he could cross-reference the two research the result might be something startling.

He still remembered those faceless assassins he encountered in the Rare Plains, and to this day, he still didn't know which organization they belonged to. He never got to investigate them, nor did they come after him in the epic plains.

Furthermore, the Killer Skull Society was researching those mutants on behalf of the Dead Faction, and now, seeing this battle puppet, he was sure that the person who wanted to perfect this battle puppet was none other than the Spirit Magic Dead King.

However, he wasn't interested in creating live puppets since he had Autarch, who could create perfect puppets without any flaws except for his range of control and the puppet's decay properties.

But if he could really create this battle puppet and perfect it, he could send them far away while he would remain at a safe distance. That's why he was planning on giving this task to Nyx since she was like his assistant and very capable.

After making up his mind, Jacob has Nyx analyze the patched corpse as well as every piece of equipment in the lab before stowing everything physically.

Once he was done taking everything that he could take, he looked at the slumbering Thone. There was still time before Autarch could turn him into his puppet, so he waited before starting the next phase of his plan of plundering.

After an hour passed, Thone's empty eye sockets lit up in flame before he stood up in front of Jacob without speaking.

"He's ready!" Autarch's emotionless voice rang.

Jacob's lips curled up, "Good work. Now we'll wait for that guy to contact Thone again, and afterward…"

However, before the two hours given by Thone passed, the same voice rang again in panic, "General, I've just received an edict directly from the Spirit Castle!"

Jacob's eyes narrowed, and he had Autarch controlled Thone and replied, "What is it?"

"Someone has broken into the faction territory and killed our people wantonly. According to the Castle, he's extremely powerful, and our formations can't seem to detect him. Even Wrath Dead King can't do anything to him.

"So, the Castle wants us to report any anomaly the moment we notice them. I-I think this matter related to the Zombies is very strange; should I report it back?"

'So, the news already spread, and it seemed they are taking me rather seriously.' Jacob mused gravely as he knew this trip to the Dead Faction had become even more cumbersome.

"Impudent!" 'Thone' roared furiously, "Do you think this person is capable of breaching our security? If we report it back, we'll become the laughingstock of every race. Still, since this is his majesty's order, we can't ignore it. contemporary romance

"I want you to gather every material from the warehouses. Afterward, gather all the finished pills and every person on the island in the center of the Island including the controllers and security, don't leave anyone behind.

"If more people are missing, then it would mean our security has really been compromised. But if only those zombies are missing, I'll personally lead a search team. Quickly, I'll give you an hour to gather everyone. I'll be there! Oh, to make sure no one makes any contact with the outside and leaks this information of our blunder, cease all contact with the outside for a day!"

"What a splendid idea, my lord. I'll publish your order right away!" The voice was startled at first before he praised in elation.

This was indeed the fastest way to force the intruder out, and by gathering everything, they wouldn't have to worry about someone else plundering anything. So, Thone idea was quickly recognized as a brilliant one.

After the voice's owner was gone, Jacob pulled a cruel smile, "This night is going to be an extremely long one."

Soon, an island-wide announcement was made, and all the dark beings on the island were summoned to the center of the island. Since this order was issued directly by the Assistant General of the Island, everyone knew the General had agreed to it as well, so no one dared to delay.

Within an hour, a huge number of Midget Wights and a small number of Zombies, Brainy Imps, and Wraiths begin to swarm the center of the island while some of the armored Midget Wights were collecting every pill and material present on the island.

No one knows at that time that they were all gathering in a slaughterhouse, and a butcher was approaching while sharpening his butcher blade!
