?Jacob leads Ten towards a camp on the island. In truth, this was a fake base on the other side of the island. The ogres and Sofie were on the other side. He deliberately made it for the Society Killer just to be safe.
"Did you encounter the Zodiac Night Guardians?" Ten suddenly asked as he was quite curious.
"Do you think they can find ?" Jacob replied with a question.
"Hahaha, sorry to ask the oblivious." Ten laughed sinisterly, "Those hypocrites are probably searching for you in the epic plains. You did well hiding on this remote island."
"I'm quite curious about how you ca in contact with them. Even the Dark Marquis was unwilling to tell about them. Care to share?" Jacob couldn't help but ask.
Ten grinned, "I'm not bound by any laws, and I sincerely wish to cooperate with you, so I naturally have to show my sincerity. I once encountered trash from the Zodiac Night Guardian when I was buying so research material. We have so small skirmish between us, not worth ntioning. He was just a loose mouth idiot."
Suddenly, Ten felt sothing and frowned, 'Why do I feel drowsy all of a sudden? And why isn't I made a connection with his mind?' He thought.
He was secretly using his bloodline ability to corrode Jacob's mind and try to make the mind connection. Once the connection was established, he slowly took control of it without Jacob realizing it.
But it was taking too long, and he suddenly started to feel like his mind was shutting down. This was quite strange since he was fully prepared, and Jacob didn't do anything as he was just walking in front, and he was extrely confident in his ntal attacks and defense against them.
Furthermore, he had a powerful treasure that could protect his mind, so he didn't suspect Jacob was capable of affecting his mind or protecting against his ntal attacks. After all, the giants' biggest weakness was their weak ntal defenses.
Moreover, even if Jacob could bypass all of his defenses, he has a life-saving talisman that could bring him away the mont his life falls into danger. That's the only reason he dared to show his face here.
"You are quite lucky. Thank you for your warning, or I would've exchanged the dallion already. You are a true friend." Jacob 'sincerely' stated.
"N-no need to ntion it. I was… was just trying to be helpful for old-ti sake. After all… after all, we have uprooted the scum society." Ten replied, but his voice began to falter.
Jacob suddenly turned around and looked at him frowningly, "What happened to your voice? Are you feeling alright?"
Even Ten was frowning as a feeling of exhaustion overca him, "I-I, it seed I'm tired from the journey… g-give… give a mont."
Without waiting for Jacob's reply, he hurried toward the other direction and vanished.
"Hahaha, that ugly guy sure is loathso. He deserved it!" Nyx's disdainful voice rang.
Jacob's lips curled up in a vicious smile, "Just a scher who thinks he has everything under control. He's just like , but I win this ti. Now you get why I said Autarch is important? He didn't even notice it despite his powerful ntal capabilities."
"Hmph, I admit that bug has so skill. Still, he's no match for ." Nyx unhappily stated.
Jacob shook his head wryly, "Don't compare yourself with others. The winner is always the one who is last standing. You can take as an example. I'm not a match for both of you, but I'm still your master.
"Never judge others by their appearance; what counts is their intellect and power. The forr is a must-have, while the latter can topple over the forr in many ways. Intellect can bring confidence, while power brings arrogance.
"But if you lack any of them, both of them are like slow poison which will make you blind, and you'll fall sooner or later. But both of them made deadly combinations, but not everyone can have them." Jacob sighed with a hint of lancholia.
He rembered saying the sa thing to his children, but they never seed to grasp it.
"Are you sad?" Nyx suddenly asked as she was connected to Jacob.
Jacob chuckled, "Just lanting about past nothing much. Emotions are epheral, always fleeting and ever-
changing."
At this mont, Ten walked out of the forest, but this ti, the sly light in his eyes was gone, and he was completely emotionless.
Seeing the familiar emotionless gaze, Jacob rely smiled, "Let's go. We have many things to discuss."
Ten silently followed Jacob towards the camp and once they were inside, he sat down and looked at him and asked, "What is your na?"
"Autarch." He replied emotionlessly.
"You were pretty quick this ti." Jacob smilingly comnted.
"He was weak." Autarch plainly stated.
Nodding, Jacob's expression becos serious, "Tell about his life story without leaving anything."
Autarch nodded and began to reveal the truth behind Ten.
He belonged to a unique goblin race, Puppeteer Goblin, who was captured by slave traders in the epic plains and later bought by S-0 of the Killer Skull Society. He was her test subject for many years before she set him free and instated in the Killer Skull Society's ranks.
Although he appeared obedient on the surface, he hated S-0 and the Killer Skull Society to the core, especially when he later found that those slave traders had a close relationship with the Killer Skull Society.
He worked for them for twenty years before he awakened his bloodline, got rid of the brain chip, and gained his freedom. It was mostly because they had underestimated his bloodline and abilities.
By doing this, he was hunted by the Killer Skull Society because he knew many of their secrets. But he was extrely cunning, and his special abilities allowed him to control others, so he was never found and beca a thorn in the Killer Skull Society way.
He killed many of their mbers, uprooted their hideouts, and spread their weakness all over the star network. It was his life's goal to uproot the Killer Skull Society completely.
But later, he found that the Killer Skull Society was not so simple, and he almost lost his life.
Thereby, he was forced to flee in a no-return zone. But that calamity brings him a huge fortune. He found a mysterious inheritance in the no-return zone, and his abilities soared after that.
When he returned, he wanted to continue with his revenge, but alas, the Killer Skull Society was not a den of fools, as they had completely changed their structures and hideouts by the ti he returned.
It was extrely hard to hunt them down, so he began to make connections and money by selling alchemy pills all over the epic plains in secret. He has also dealt with the ATLAS.
Furthermore, he slowly investigated the Killer Skull Society's new structure and even managed to plant a puppet in their two-digit s-ranks. He was really patient as he slowly gathered all the information and waited for a chance to strike at once.
He got that chance when Jacob arrived, and his weapons were the exact thing he needed to start his revenge and deal a killing blow to the Killer Skull Society, and he succeeded!
