'61,400,812'
A delightful spark flashed past Jacob's eyes when he saw this number, and without hesitation, he transferred everything to his personal account.
This guy's wealth was double that of the potion maker like Tunny because he had his own business in the dark city.
The next moment, Jacob received the notification of a successful transition, and the final amount in his account was 94.3 Million. He was only over five million away from having a D-Tier account.
He promptly received another notification for an account upgrade from F-Tier to E-Tier. He completed it instantly.
As someone who once stood at the pinnacle of wealth, this small wealth wasn't enough to shock him. This fleeting delight only lasted for a moment before he stowed his device away and crushed Jerry's ZMT Device.
Every person's ZMT Device was registered with them, and if you want to change it, you have to visit the bank branch which Jacob didn't require.
After Jacob was done with the bank account matter, he finally looked at the other things in the safe.
Besides money, there were some papers, and after skimming through them. He found the deed of this shop and some logs related to Jerry's business.
What caught Jacob's eye were two folded parchments. One was an old map which Jacob mused must be of the ruin where they found titan tears formula.
The other was also a map, but the area recorded on it was extremely vast, and there were three words written on top of this map, 'Rarer Races Region'.
Jacob's eyes flashed as he examined the map more carefully. He didn't even have the map of the rare region, but now he got the map of the rarer region, he was naturally curious.
However, he was fascinated when he saw a marked passage, and his eyes narrowed.
'Could it be a secret passage toward the rarer region?' Jacob presumed and decided to interrogate Tunny about it later.
After Jacob found out about the titan tears elixir, he knew now he could increase his strength at an extremely fast pace which also meant he required powerful species hearts at some point.
Right now, his hunger was 70% eliminated, and with his current wealth, he can buy more rare species' meat and eliminate his hunger completely.
Furthermore, he now had a rarer heart and three rare hearts. He might be able to cross the 40% progress with them soon. At that time, he could use the titan tears Tummy would create to subdue his hunger to a bearable level.
'I should be able to complete up to fifty percent of my heart progress with the titan tears made with my current titan iron stash. In the meantime, I would learn potion making and that language.
'At that level, the rare region might not suit me anymore. But first, I have to completely take advantage of Jerry's position. In seven months, I have to reach the fifty percent progress rate.' An astute light shone in Jacob's eyes.
With his current power, he wasn't afraid of anyone in the Dark City, and he prepared a flawless plan for his advancement in these seven months.
Afterward, Jacob spotted a familiar yet unfamiliar device and picked it up.
'Bloodline Scanning Scale Device? This one seemed to be of a higher grade.' Jacob quickly turned on the 12X14 inches device.
It has been a long time since he measured his strength with this device. One reason being the device in his possession no longer showed any date on him, and except for his species, sex, and age, all things were unknown.
Jacob saw the familiar menu and pressed his thumb on the needle, and a countdown appeared on the black screen like the old device.
A message appeared on the screen.
"The blood analysis has been completed. Please press the button to check the result!"
Jacob pressed the first button without any hesitation.
"Specie: Human (Uncommon),
"Sex: Male,
"Age: 25,
"Blood Force: 9,000+
"(Note: Please Purchase a higher-grade device to measure accurate blood force!)"
"Bloodline: Unknown,
"(Note: Please Purchase a higher-grade device to discover about this bloodline and more information!)"
"What is this Blood Force? Is it some kind of strength meter of the rarer region?" Jacob mumbled with uncertainty and took a mental note to inquire about it from Tunny as well.
He then pressed the next button.
"Blood Analysis Report:
"Unknown Bloodline can't be masseur with the current device!
"(Note: Please Purchase a higher-grade device for more accurate blood analysis results and more information!)"
"Still unknown, huh?" Jacob barely chuckled as he expected this and pressed the last button without any expectation.
"Blood Lifespan:
"Unknown
"(Note: Please purchase a higher-grade device for more accurate blood lifespan results and more accurate information!)"
Shaking his head, he closed the device. He expected this much since his body has long been mutated and always changing. Just keeping his identity as a human was already a miracle, but he knew it might not be for long as well.
After this device, he found a green ID Card that belong to Jerry and he stowed it away since it might come in handy because it belonged to the rarer region. Other than these things there wasn't anything interesting that caught Jerry's eye, and he closed the safe, locking it.
He finally has room to breathe.
Jacob walked toward the king-size bed and just lay there while staring at the ceiling. He was traveling for months, and it was the first time in a while that he didn't feel any danger or on edge.
A strange relief washed over him before he unknowingly fell asleep.
When Jacob killed Jerry, he didn't know a strange single was released, and right after twenty-four hours, a meeting was being held between capped figures at an unknown location.
"Everyone, I summon you all here to announce two pieces of news." The capped person, who was the only one who was sitting in this room spoke in a horse voice.
There were 12 standing figures in front of him and two standing on each side.
All of them were attentively listening to him without making any noises.
The person continued, "First, it seemed someone from the bank had interfered with our mission in the uncommon region."
This time a manly voice sounded in disbelief, "Did they find out about the 'Cannibal Plan'?'
"This we don't know for sure yet. But the person who intercepted us was assumed to have 1-Star A-Rank strength and possess at least Type-0 Technology. So, it could also be a coincidence that he was simply just a passerby, but we can't rule out the first possibility either." The sitting person impassively replied.
"What about the second announcement?" Someone asked in a grave tone.
"The second is the Rogue Skull NO. A-1389331's brain chip has gone offline yesterday. Which means he is dead."
"Rogue Skull NO. A-1389331? You mean that Renegade Hobgoblin we were deliberately keeping alive?" Some asked with astonishment.
"Yes." The person nodded, "He didn't know we deliberately let him escape with the Titan Tears Formula and had our own plans for him in the Cannibal Plan. But it seemed someone had killed him as well."
"Could it be someone had leaked the information about the Cannibal Plan, and now they're hunting our pawns one by one?" Someone exclaimed in a grave tone.
"Rogue Skull NO. A-1389331's current strength was at 3-Star A-Rank, so it might not be the same person who killed him, and this could be a big unexpected coincidence." The person said impassively, "But if the information leak really happened then there is a traitor among us since only the people in this room know about the Cannibal Plan and its details."
"But it's impossible. We all have a Brain Chip implanted in our brains. The moment we say something about the organization or even think of betraying it, our head would explode!" Someone quickly refuted it, and everyone spotted this claim.
The sitting person's voice turned icy at this moment, "That's why I didn't take any action. But just to be sure, everyone will go through a throughout scanning. If you guys weren't guilty, there's no need to be afraid."
No one retorted or even dared to reject it and quickly agreed.
"Alright, go to the scanning room first, and then we'll talk."
Everyone quickly left the hall except the two on this person's side.
"What is your plan if they were all clean?" A melodious voice rang from his left side.
"When the scanning was complete, I hope we won't find anything amiss. I'm planning on sending, Skull NO. A-10000 and Skull NO. A-9999 to the uncommon region for investigation.
"If this is just a coincidence, they're going to oversee the Cannibal Plan until it reaches the initial stage, and it's time to retrieve the Titan Tears Formula. We can't let it fall into someone else hand." The leader impassively replied.
"Are you really going to send five-digit and four-digit skulls to that barren place?" An elderly voice questioned from his right.
"I didn't want to show our true strength until the Cannibal Plan was initiated. But in these past two years, this wasn't the only time we were intercepted. I think there might be someone operating against us!"
