Cursed Immortality-Novel

'Welcome to Star Network!'

Jacob's cocked an eyebrow when he saw the color screen and familiar white color words. The words change into another after the introduction.

'Starting the Bidding process of Star Watch Model-A05 with the user!'

'Please speak 'Continue' for voice recognition.'

Jacob coldly does as it was written, "Continue."

A blue scanner suddenly lit on the screen before new words appeared.

'Voice Recognition has been successful.'

'Start the DNA Binding?'

'Yes/No'

Jacob's eyes narrowed as he touched the 'Yes'.

He was monitoring Skull No.9999 as he saw her also tapping on the lit screen.

The next moment thereafter, he felt a sharp perk on his wrist, right below the star watch screen.

'This thing can pierce through my skin? And where did that pin was hidden?'

Jacob was astonished when he felt the pin perking on his skin and then vanishing just like that. He looked at the Star Watch profoundly.

Another red scanner appeared at this moment.

'DNA has been collected to Star Network.'

'New user detected.'

'Please Select a Star Network Username.'

A small keyboard appeared with an empty name box.

Jacob thought for a moment and then looked at the other two, he typed,

'Faceless Ancient'

If not that he had already given this name to them, he hadn't chosen it. He didn't know if they would be able to see his name or not. Just to be safe, he decided to change it after his deal was done with those two.

However, he nearly cursed when he saw the next words,

'The Username is available.'

'The username has been selected and unchangeable for 20 years.'

'Select Privacy:

'Public

'Private'

Jacob chose private without even looking at the details below.

'Collecting data on user…

'Profile:

'Name: Jacob Steve

'Race: Human

'Sex: Male

'Affiliation(s):

'Zodiac Taurus Bank: Common C-Rank Mercenary'

'Alchemy Guild: Basic Gunsmith

Jacob's eyes went wide as saw his information appearing one after another. This information was all that was recorded in the uncommon branches of these two organizations.

However, this wasn't the end, the scanning was still active, and the screen changed again,

'A D-Tier Zodiac Personal Account has been detected!

'Do you want to connect the Bank Account with Star Watch Model-A05?'

'Just what the fuck is this Star Network, it got everything just by a DNA scan. It is probably even more advanced than the internet.' Jacob was vigilant as he tapped on 'Yes' again.

Although this Star Watch has access to his data, it revealed nothing about his special circumstances. So, he wasn't a concern anymore.

'The Account *** has been connected with the Star Watch Model-A05!'

After that, the menu was finally open, and there were only five icons with their names.

'Profile'

'Bank'

'Files'

'Date Transfer'

'Start Network'

However, before he could explore any further, a notification appeared as his 'Bank' icon flashed.

'Picky Eater transfer 500 Million Gold Coins into your account…'

Jacob looked at Skull No.9999 as she was now looking at him as well.

"Do you receive it?" She asked.

'Picky Eater, really?' Jacob looked at her strangely, but he nodded his head, "Picky Eater, I presumed?"

Jacob clicked on the bank icon, and he saw his bank balance had increased by five hundred million.

"Current Balance: 723,890,130"

Another notification appeared on the screen.

'Your D-Tier Account is eligible for C-Tier Upgrade.

'Upgrade/Later'

Jacob upgrades it without any hesitation. 'This thing is far more convent than that ZMTD.'

Skull No.9999 looked at Jacob's profile sneakily as well,

'Faceless Ancient: Private Account'

She coldly grunted when she saw this and closed it.

"Alright. I need to look at the formula of titan tears first before I'll transfer the date." Skull No.9999 coldly told.

In this short time, she had already alerted the higher-ups of Jacob's presence, and when she told them he was willing to hand over the Titan Tears Formula and willing to leave this place. They instantly agreed with the compensation.

Not only that, but they sent her a new map so she could give it to Jacob.

She knew the society has already on the move and Jacob would be dealt with as long as he followed this exact map.

Furthermore, she wasn't worried that Jacob would not follow the map because as long as Jacob stayed in Common Plains, he won't be able to hide from society's eye!

She even used the 'picture function', which was unique to her Star Watch, which was of a higher model. She took Jacob's pictures without even him knowing and sent them back.

'You could only blame yourself for being at the wrong place at the wrong time.' A cold glint flashed past her eyes. She almost believed that Jacob was likely telling the 'truth' about how he appeared here.

But for the greater good of their cause, they can't let Jacob leave the common plains!

Even if he had that Star Watch, he could only make bank transitions, use Star Network's search engine, or buy some virtual staff. He can't contact anyone with that old model or send messages.

She thought Jacob wasn't aware of such a function after she saw he wasn't demanding her star watch.

Even A-99999 got that model after spending a fortune in the society member shop.

Jacob thought it made sense, so he took out a book from his 'pocket'.

Although Tunny only translated two formulas, they still filled this hundred-page book.

Jacob opened the book in his hand and let Skull No.9999 have a look at the contents. He knew she can easily see every word from this distance.

After the thirtieth page, he closed the book and coldly said, "You have already seen the first formula. After the transaction is complete, this book is yours."

Skull No.9999 nodded. She had some understanding of potions, so when she saw diagrams and complex algorithms of materials and their components, she knew it was indeed the real deal.

She tapped the transfer files app on her watch and placed two files in the transfer tray.

Jacob felt the vibration from his star watch. He saw the notification of the transfer and accepted it.

The next moment, within two seconds, three files appear.

Two were complex, while the last one was a virtual map that was extremely large, and his lips curled up when he saw the details.

'What a fucking big world…' He thought with exasperation.

This map covered the entire Common Plains, which was divided into Epic, Rarer, Rare, Uncommon, and Common Regions by the natives.

But actually, it was just the most insignificant region, and its area wasn't even a tenth of the Rare Plains, which was the place from where the Dark Elf came!

That's why Jacob was shocked by the vastness of this world, and he was longer even thought about how huge this world was and finally understood why it was called the Zodiac Plains, not Zodiac World.

He closed the virtual map and decided to study it after no one was around.

He then tossed the book toward Skull No.9999, and she caught it.

She quickly opened the other half part, and after confirming it was all there, she put the book away.

She was finally relaxed, and now even if Jacob turned hostile she could easily escape.

"It's nice doing business with you." She asked in a friendly tone. Now, her entire tone was changed.

"Likewise." Jacob nodded without any emotions.

She then posed another question in a gentle tone, "So, when will you leave?"

Jacob coldly replied, "In one day, I still have this titan iron to refine. I can't waste it, right? So, please, if you will."

"Tsk, tsk, alright, I was just being friendly. Let's go, there is no place for warmth in this world." She lamented, but her steps were swift.

'This two-face bitch, she's leaving me behind!' Skull No.10000 cursed as he fled at full speed. He didn't dare to stay with Jacob alone!

'Dark Elf of Elf Race, huh? There are thousands of folktales about them in my old world. I never thought I would encounter one in such a situation. Well, she was a Dark Elf, so I still didn't encounter a real elf yet.' Jacob couldn't help but think like this since now he wasn't under pressure.

When he was in peril, he didn't care about anything except his life, even if he met a fabled dragon. He would not let his thought wander in such a situation.

However, now that he was out of danger, he was curious.

Nevertheless, this didn't mean it was completely out of danger since Skull No.9999 left.

He knew she might've already contacted them through her Star Watch. It was completely possible, so he wasn't planning on staying here for a second longer.

Jacob told them he was going to leave in a day to buy himself some time. In fact, he was going to leave right now.

Jacob had nothing to carry. He even abandoned his precious distillation equipment.

In the deep shade of night, Jacob left like a phantom just like he appeared!
