In the end, Jacob found that most of the knowledge related to the runes in the shop was already present in the Witch Palace, and the only thing that wasn't was the knowledge of space runes.
So, he didn't waste his money and bought some runic blueprints that could really be helpful, as well as knowledge of magic smith and alchemy that wasn't in the witch palace.
Afterward, he bought materials for those blueprints, recipes, and magic weapon designs. Especially the magic guns. He knew it was time to move on to magic technology and combine it without his own.
Jacob's future ideas and the most powerful weapons in his mind were straight out of fantasies, and the technology needed to create them was not something even the unique plains might have. So, he naturally has to combine magic technology.
He knew as time passed, all those mechanical technologies would turn useless if he didn't combine them, and magic technology was probably the main development focus of higher plains. Thereby, Jacob ended up spending 8 billion ZC on these things, and he also brought a large quantity of titian iron of the highest quality and magic gems.
The magic gems were essential for high-class rune crafting and magic weapons crafting, especially when someone was trying to create different element runic treasures and weapons from their own.
Afterward, Jacob quickly chose a free weapon and armor from the shop, which wasn't that important because he already had many of them for use.
What Jacob was interested in after…
"I want to know if there is some kind of mask that can alert appearances and body size." He questioned, as this was probably the most significant issue right now. His growing size and he also wanted to avoid the gluttony mask as long as it were possible.
"No such treasure that can alter the body structure in epic plains. There is only a mask that can alter facial features, eyes, and hair color.
"Mask of Deviant (Advanced Epic Rank)
"Description: Alternate facial muscles, eye color, and hair color as long as provided with constant magic supply.
"Limitation: High-level magic detection ability can see through the mask.
"Price: 650,000,000 Zodiac Credit"
After SAAI's explanation, the Mask of Deviant appeared in front of him.
Frowned, Jacob was deep in thought, 'I would be glad it could just change my body size. I guess the Gluttony Mask is really special.'
Jacob sighed as he decided to buy this mask, which was better than nothing.
The next moment, a tiny diamond-shaped ruby emerged.
"Place it to your glabella and then focus your mana in it. A red membrane would cover your entire head. Thereby, you can use it as a normal mask or change the membrane shape to alter your facial features, eye color, and hair color."
"Simple enough." Jacob picked it up, and it looked like a parasite gem before stowing it away for later.
Now his shopping was almost done, "Show me magic ability scripture related to curse magic."
"Curse magic is classified as a forbidden section, and it does not exist in Epic Plains, and you need a 5-Star Star Privilege to access it!"
Astounded, Jacob didn't expect this, "What about Whammy Poison?"
"Any magic related to curse is classified."
"Why?" Jacob grimaced as he found this bias of the Zodiac Plains towards the curse magic.
"Because it is forbidden magic," SAAI replied emotionlessly, without caring about Jacob's dark expression.
"Then what about holy magic? Did it also classify as forbidden?" Jacob scoffed.
"Indeed. Both magics are extremely rare and capable of alternating nature."
Now, this was even more unexpected since the holy magic shouldn't have such an effect. But in the end, Jacob has yet to see anything use holy magic, so he couldn't retort.
In the end, he gave up. He had plenty of fire and water magic, and he was sure he could find more outside at a far cheaper price.
Lastly, Jacob asked another question, which he also wasn't sure he could buy here, "Do you have raw hearts with their heart blood still intact? I mean, hearts of species who originated from the lineage of Legendary Rank Beings or direct bloodline? They have to be preserved well without any refinement or any kind of contamination. If they are directly harvested from bodies, then it is even better. If you didn't have that, their heart blood will do fine."
Jacob wasn't too hopeful about this still; if there was even the slightest possibility that there were such hearts or heart blood here, then he couldn't miss it. After all, he has money, and this was far faster and safer.
But even if they were such hearts and heart blood, he needed to check first if they even worked. He wasn't sure if the Zodiac Plains had a preserving method like his infinity pendant.
This time, without any explanation, the screen in front of him changed!
"Heart of Abyssal Lizard (Tier-1 Epic Rank)
"Quantity: 2
"Price: 35,000,000 ZC each
"Heart of Infant Water Wyvern (Tier-3 Epic Rank)
"Quantity: 1
"Price: 45,000,000 ZC

"Price: 60,000,000 ZC

"Price: 100,000,000 ZC
"Heart of Infant High Elf (Tier-9 Epic Rank)

"Price: 150,000,000 ZC

"Heart Blood of Infant Mortal Giant (Tier-9 Epic Rank)
"Quantity: 1500 Milliliter
"Price: 1,000,000,000 ZC"
Jacob was astounded seeing the result; there was even the heart of a wyvern, and he knew it was a future legendary being and heart blood of many unfamiliar species!
He quickly asked, "Are they direct decedents of legendary rank being or from their branch bloodline?"
"They are from direct bloodline." SAAI emotionlessly replied before the screen changed, and an even more extensive catalog of hearts emerged, "These hearts and heart blood belonged to branch bloodline."
Jacob didn't even look at them and quickly said, "I want to buy the heart of abyssal lizard and blood of True High Orc."
Jacob now wanted to test if those hearts worked or not. Because if they did, then he was going all out!
