"Star Server Inbox (Star Server Owner):
"Anonymous2 (Star ID: Star-Chaser): You are very impressive Faceless Ancient!
"[Star Network Advocacy: You are not obliged to reply to this message!]"
Jacob looked at the message from Star-Chase with scrutiny. He was quite curious about this person who could take out unique rank magic ability and universal scripture, but he knew better than to ask.
"Faceless Ancient (Star Server Owner): Thank you. Your delivery will arrive in 51 days.
"Anonymous2 (Star ID: Star-Chaser): Oh, I have no doubt about it. If you're willing to share your production method of White Sun Missile, I can promise you that you won't be disappointed with that trade either.
"Faceless Ancient (Star Server Owner): You're asking for too much, so I have declined. But I'm willing to trade another White Sun Missile if you can provide me with something as valuable as you just bid.
"Anonymous2 (Star ID: Star-Chaser): Well, I had to ask. So, what do you want, more water-type universal scriptures of the same rank?"
'So, he had more?' Jacob was astonished since he was just fishing but never expected the Star-Chaser would have more.
"Faceless Ancient (Star Server Owner): If possible, yes. But I also want an ability scripture related to the casting of the same rank this time.
"Anonymous2 (Star ID: Star-Chaser): Your appetite sure is huge. But it's nothing I can't satisfy. But you have to agree to one of my conditions, and I'll add a very powerful casting type ability scripture with one more Universal Scripture like the Aura Water and Fire Paladin, and four more ability scriptures for water elements of the same rank."
If Jacob hadn't known better, he would've definitely thought this guy was Gunner. But this offer was very enticing for him and his research for magic.
"Faceless Ancient (Star Server Owner): I need to hear the condition first.
"Anonymous2 (Star ID: Star-Chaser): I won't ask for anything you can't do. On the contrary, I think you would be very thrilled to accept this condition. I'll give you the location of a secret vault, and you just need to empty it. I don't want anything. You can keep whatever you found in there; I just want it to be empty!"
Jacob frowned as this was completely unexpected.
"Faceless Ancient (Star Server Owner): I need more context.
"Anonymous2 (Star ID: Star-Chaser): Of course, you see this vault is related to the Bank Manager of Universal Zodiac Taurus Bank, Lucy Gabriel. Tell me, are you interested?"
'That bitch?' Jacob's eyes went cold, but this also made him wary of Star-Chase the same. Because Lucy was no ordinary character, she was one of the three leaders of the hegemonies.
Although he wanted nothing but to get his hands on her heart, he wasn't delusional enough to think he was capable enough. Furthermore, since this vault is related to her, this also means it was a very well-hidden secret, yet this guy knows it!
For all he knows, this person was one of Lucy's dogs, and she was deliberately baiting him to come out of his hideout. Or he can simply backstab him by telling others where he will be.
Right now, Jacob's biggest advantage was his location was still well hidden, and no one had figured out that he wasn't a golden elf yet. So, even if there was no risk involved in this, this wasn't something he was willing to try, especially when his very life was at stake.
Besides, he already has the venture to the Vile Witch Layer, and then he needed to research the magic and practice the rune crafting before making his final preparations for the trial plain. So, his schedule was pretty much occupied. Being greedy will only hinder his plans.
"Faceless Ancient (Star Server Owner): Sorry, I'm not interested.
"Anonymous2 (Star ID: Star-Chaser): Are you sure? You might find even more knowledge there.
"Faceless Ancient (Star Server Owner): Again, I'm not interested.
"Anonymous2 (Star ID: Star-Chaser): Hah, what a meticulous fellow you are. Then I guess we can't carry on with our deal. But if I like your product performance, I will reach out to you. On the other hand, if you change your mind, contact me any time, and let's add each other as friends.
"Faceless Ancient (Star Server Owner): No problem."
Although slightly reluctant, Jacob closed the chat box. But he wasn't too flustered since it wasn't the end of the world. Because he still has many more options.
Jacob then instantly contacted Dark Marquise and signed off a deal, and sold a White Sun Missile. The Dark Marquise will buy that missile with the same amount that he bid in the end, and on top of that, he has to pay an extra 500 Million ZC.
Lastly, he decided to accept the Society Killer's deal as well, but he made him pay not only 500 Million ZC but also 5,000 Magic Gems of Basic Epic Grade Quality. He needed them to practice his water magic, of course, and each such gem cost around 1,000 ZC in the market!
So, this deal was still satisfactory for him. Other than that, he ignored all the messages from top figures since it was only a waste of time. For he didn't have more White Sun Missile, nor was he going to make more unless someone made an offer he couldn't refuse.
Furthermore, he was planning on replenishing his arsenal with far more terrifying weapons once he got rid of the old ones. So this also concluded the second auction of his Star Server, and it was even more successful than the first one.
Nevertheless, it wasn't the time for celebration as he had another appointment. So, he quickly headed towards the Destiny Star Corporation to hand over his deliveries, and then he got all the knowledge and money which was locked.
But he put it on hold since this wasn't something he could learn in a day and headed directly toward the two giants who were waiting for him.
Jacob was now ready to head toward the Vile Witch Layer!
