Cursed Immortality-Novel

Chapter 402  The Society Killer (1)

Jacob had already done his research on these four delivery methods, and he had already selected a method long ago before he posted that auction post.

The moment he selected that method, the interface changed.

"You have selected 'Star Network Delivery Service!

"Star Network Delivery Service: Please deliver the Scanned Auction Item (Atomic Grenade: Unique Item Signature NO…) to the closet Destiny Star Corporation Branch within 31 days!

"NOTE: Your amount will be released once you deliver the Scanned Auction Item!"

Jacob looked at the simple instruction, and this is exactly why he chose this method. Because this method was the most direct and simplest of the four, and all he needed to do was hand over the atomic grenade to the Destiny Star Corporation Branch, it would be akin to handing over the item directly to the buyer.

Because once the item enters the Destiny Star Corporation, it will become their responsibility to deliver it, and if anything happens between the delivery, they will be the ones responsible and have to compensate the buyer.

Although this option would reveal his general location if someone had a way to track back the delivery location, he was willing to take that risk after knowing the Star Network was not as biased as it appeared.

On the contrary, it was his own misgivings that put him in dangerous and unfavorable situations with the three hegemonies.

If anything, this was Jacob's test to measure just how much impenetrable or neutral the Destiny Star Corporation was because he had yet to hear anyone from this side being involved in public matters.

If the three hegemonies controlled wealth, strength, and knowledge, then the Destiny Star Corporation was the platform that made it all possible, and they are, without any doubt, far, far more unfathomable than the three hegemonies.

Jacob even suspected that the Destiny Star Corporation was related to the fabled Zodiac Will, but he couldn't be sure or assume anything just because he thought that way.

After Jacob was done choosing the method of delivery, it was time to have a chat with the person who had made him 55.5 million ZC profit!

"Star Server Inbox (Star Server Owner):

"Anonymous1 (Star ID: The Society Killer): It's nice to meet you, Mr. Faceless Ancient, finally!

"[Star Network Advocacy: You are not obliged to reply to this message!]

"Faceless Ancient (Star Server Owner): My pleasure as well. Your item will be delivered in due time.

The moment Jacob replied almost instantly, another message popped up.

"Anonymous1 (Star ID: The Society Killer): I'm not worried about the item. I haven't spent so much just on the item but also on having a chat with the man behind the curtains!

"[Star Network Advocacy: …]

"Faceless Ancient (Star Server Owner): Is that so?

"Anonymous1 (Star ID: The Society Killer): Indeed! What Mr. Ancient is doing is something that has never been done before. At least no one had the means or guts to stand up against the three tyrants! They don't even care about the scum society running amok and killing innocents in masses just because they felt it wasn't worth their time. Yet, the moment you showed your fangs, those three tyrants finally felt threatened. I'm your biggest fan Mr. Ancient!

"Faceless Ancient (Star Server Owner): Why are you so sure I'm not working with the society as well? Since what I'm doing is nothing less than what they do. In fact, I'm doing far worse than handing over these weapons of mass destruction to anyone who paid me the most.

"Anonymous1 (Star ID: The Society Killer): You do have a point, but I know for a fact that you are in cohort with the scum society because the moment you try to reveal their secrets, your death is imminent. Yet here you are selling these terrifying weapons, and if I'm not wrong, the scum society is after you as well because of the mutual reason the three tyrants are. As for those weapons, I won't let them fall in the hands of the ignorant."

Jacob narrowed his eyes at this guy's words and felt disgusted by those righteous words because he had yet to see someone who didn't do anything for their own benefit and sneered darkly.

"Faceless Ancient (Star Server Owner): Heh, what are you, a hero of justice?"

"Anonymous1 (Star ID: The Society Killer): No, I'm a villain who wants to eradicate all injustice by any means necessary, and with your help, I think I finally have hope to achieve just that!

"Faceless Ancient (Star Server Owner): So, you're recruiting me? Do you think I have the same beliefs as you? Naïve!"

Jacob had urged to close the chat after seeing that message, but he endured since he wanted to seek this guy's help about the nine closed rings of A-0.

"Anonymous1 (Star ID: The Society Killer): Naïve I am, but I'm still a visionary, and I'm someone who believes in my cause and will stoop to any level to make it a reality. Even if you do not believe in my beliefs, as long as you can sell your weapons to me, I can make do with that. I will offer any price possible, and trust me. I'm going to use them against the scum society! I can even make Zodiac Oath Contract with you!"

Jacob was startled by the last words, 'Zodiac Oath Contract? What's that?'

It was times like this when Jacob really felt depressed because of his lack of information. Still, he won't want to miss the chance to ask what this Zodiac Oath Contract was.

"Faceless Ancient (Star Server Owner): What is Zodiac Oath Contract?

"Anonymous1 (Star ID: The Society Killer): Ho? It seemed you are not one of the top figures of the Epic Plains. Still, I'm glad you asked since it means you at least found me worthy of your inquiry. A Zodiac Oath Contract, as the name suggests, is a contract to make a semantics oath which the SAAI will bare witness to or, if you could believe, bared witness by the Zodiac Plains itself, and breaking it means certain death!"
