Chapter 409
Hunting the Epics (1)
In the dium size city like No.543, there was no place for the weak or common public because almost all the dium size cites were located in dangerous areas like the Vile Witch Valley.
The denizens of dium size were 70% epic rank. They were mostly adventurers and part of one of the three hegemonies. While 30% were extraordinary rank beings, who were mostly of the working class in the city.
Furthermore, the mbers of the Alliance and rcenary Agency did not live far from danger like the alchemists. They form their own teams or parties and then hunt around the Vile Witch Valley to earn money and then spend that money to access training facilities provided by the two hegemonies to grow even stronger.
Thereby, these teams then rent residential areas of a dium size city as their base of operation. Furthermore, these teams also recruit or hire privately, basically, those who were either independent experts from three hegemonies and didn't want to join their ranks or those who didn't have the qualification to join their ranks.
These independent individuals were almost large in number for many reasons, and anyone could hire their services as long as they agreed and the price offered was enticing enough.
The three hegemonies won't interfere with these businesses as long as it won't touch their bottom line and independent individuals road around the epic plains for fortuitous opportunities.
But such people weren't allowed in large size cities, and only the mber of the three hegemonies could gain access to those large cities. That's why at so point, these stubborn, independent individuals joined a hegemony when they t with a barrier that could no longer be overco by going solo.
City No.543 also had many such bases that recruited this sort of people on a daily basis and then used them to clear their own mission they had taken from their organization.
At nightti, Jacob at this mont walking in this brightly lit street where these bases were located a barbarian. There were na boards, as well as recruitnt conditions, placed outside these residents, and many people were looking at those boards with scrutiny.
He first goes to the Destiny Star Corporation Branch to hand over the atomic grenades for delivery. He was astounded to find that there wasn't any worker in that place at all.
An AI handled it, and after it scanned his star watch and the rchandise, all he had to was to pay a delivery fee of 1000 ZC per item, and he was done!
Now the delivery responsibility was on them, and he could use his 55.5 million ZC as he wished. He was even more relieved now, and if his position were discovered despite all this, then the DSC was also not reliable.
Anyhow, he will see very soon about that, but right now, he is more interested in those people standing in this district.
'According to Sofie, almost everyone here is either an expert or a reject. So, if they disappeared, no one would raise any flags…' Jacob thought as he summoned Immortika.
"Tell
which among these people I should target." He questioned. He didn't want to pick them up randomly as it would take too much ti, and it wasn't guaranteed that they would be legendary descendants.
That's when this sadist book cos into play!
"Hehehe, finally, so action! Alright, tell
do you want high-level targets or low-level ones? The high-level will give you more percentage than the low-level ones, and you only need to consu one heart each from that species. In comparison, you will need to consu three hearts from low-level species to gain the sa result."
Jacob thought for a mont before he said, "Are there any high-level targets outside those residents?"
"Nope. Many of them are complete trash, and only eight of them et the requirents. Even if you target those in the residents, there should be around 45 that clear the low-level requirent, and if you include the eight outside, then you should gain a maximum of 1~2% in cursed blood condensing."
Jacob frowned, "Killing 49 people all at once? Even if they do not belong to any organization, it will raise flags. Even if I want to, I need to use too much hex mana, and it is simply not worth expanding all those dark beings' magic cores. Unless I had no other choice. Tell
about these high-level targets?"
"Hehehe, how thoughtful. Very well, there are only four high-level targets in this place at the sa level as the quasi-high orc you've killed, and if you can get your hands on their hearts, you should be able to get 2~3%. Two of them, in particular, have quite a high density of legendary bloodline, and they are together no less."
Jacob wasn't surprised about finding more beings like A-0 since this was a dium size city of epic plains. Furthermore, it was a less risky approach than killing 49 people altogether.
Since killing the three hegemonies mbers couldn't be avoided, then he had to choose a high-level target. It was less ti-consuming and doable.
"How strong are the two you ntioned?" Jacob inquired.
"Hehe, that's the thing, they are both 8th Tier Epic! While the other two are 6th tier, respectively."
Jacob's expression clouded, "8th Tier? They don't seem to be from this city since this power rank should only appear in the upper echelon of large cities. If they are together, I can only hex one of them, and the other will not sit still and do nothing. Forget about them for now. Tell
about the other two first."
"Hahahaha…and here I thought you start courting death nowadays. But it seems you haven't changed at all. The first one is inside the resident 300 step on the right from you, while the other was on another street in the southwest direction, around a mile away from here. One's a Black Tiger Orc, and the other is a Bronze Barbarian.
"Oh, and they are completely isolated and surrounded by many people. How are you going to isolate them to hex them? Hehehe…"
Jacob didn't answer but walked in the direction with a grim yet confident expression. He already had a plan ready for this!
