On the western shore of the Epic Plains, a medium-sized ship was sailing closer. On this ship were eight giant figures giving a powerful aura; they were all Horned Ogre, and two of them were dwarfs, they were sent here by Captain Free Sword!
The Vice-Captain Harold was in command of this group and the mission.
"Vice-Captain, do you really think this would be fine to enter the Epic Plains?" An ogre with a stern expression questioned.
Harold replied confidently, "Don't worry, the Star Void Server no longer exists in the epic plains. Now, it's just like a continent without the Star Network's protection. We'll be fine."
"Sixth Brother, you're worrying about nothing. We are not going to claim the epic plains but just to plunder the Dark City before going home. Aren't you feeling suffocating breathing in this thin air?" Another ogre snickered.
The sixth brother spoke uncertainly, "Sigh… going against Dark City is nothing but trouble."
"Heh, don't worry, they won't even know what hit them. They would've even dreamt about a bunch of Uniques raiding their turtle den in the epic plains. I've always wanted to drink those conceited bastards' blood." Another ogre chuckled with bloodlust in his eyes.
Everyone began to smile as they were all extremely confident in this endeavor despite some minor misgivings.
"Tell me about this slave. He's the one receiving us, right, and the source of our information?" A dwarf asked as her voice was extremely pleasant.
Harold replied, "Heh, he's just an ant used by us. Not worth anything. We are ordered to bury him once we're done with the mission."
"He seemed quite interesting, though. He was able to get this information so quickly. Won't it be a waste?" The dwarf replied.
Harold shook his head, "It's all because of the captain's mercy, nothing much. Without the treasures bestowed by the captain, he wouldn't be able to do anything. In the end, he's just an epic, and it would be too much trouble to take him back. We don't have a lack of people like him in the unique plains. In the grand, unique plains, he's just a speck of dust not worth a dime."
Everyone chuckled maliciously since they completely agreed with this statement. In their eyes, Epic Plains wasn't anything, and the amount they had plundered could topple any power in the Epic Plains.
In the end, Jacob was just an expendable pawn of Captain Free Sword, nothing else.
"Well, you're right. But I'm more worried about Masha, she's been acting weirdly of late." Another ogre said with concern.
"Don't worry she's probably fantasying about some gruesome experiment on that traitor. She's always like this, and just like always, she won't care about you, old eighth." The Sixth Brother teased, making the Old Eighth blush.
"You're just playing with fire. That woman is completely anomalous and not worth your affection. If you want beauty, there are plenty of them out there. Stop lusting after that lunatic, or the next thing you know, she's experimenting with your dick." Harold teasingly stated, making everyone burst into laughter.
They were more like family than just a crew and always teased each other.
At this moment, the second dwarf, who was also a sorcerer beside the woman dwarf, blurted, "Someone is flying above us!"
Everyone was startled and quickly approached the deck and looked at the starry sky, but there was no one. However, they trust this dwarf senses because he is a powerful spirit user, and his senses are for show unless a treasure that could surpass his level nothing can hide from him.
"Show yourself!" Harold coldly uttered as his aura skyrocketed. He was a unique-tier-7 combatant just below Captain Free Sword.
"As expected of unique ranks, my rare rank disc's stealth is worth nothing in front of your bunch." A cold, sneering voice rang before a figure was revealed in the sky, and his shadow covered the entire ship. Even the giant ogres looked like ants in front of this gigantic figure.
"Who are you?" Harold asked as he had a very bad feeling seeing this 19-meter-tall giant. He had only seen this size of a giant once in the unique plains, and the person could inflict fear even on the captain.
Their natural size always measured the Giants' prowess, and any giant above 15 meters in size was a confirmed unique rank. Still, there were also magical abilities that could increase size, so they were uncertain.
Furthermore, it was epic plains, so how could a unique rank giant be here? Still, as notorious star pirates, they were all extremely cautious.
The giant stood on a gray disc like a small mountain as his long dark hair fluttered in the wind and his emotionless blue eyes were locked on the group.
He finally spoke, "I guess you can't identify me with this mask, eh Harold? I suppose I was just a powerful ant in your eyes that day, not worth remembering. But so what? You see, I'm a little bit hungry, and you all delivered yourselves at a perfect time. Don't worry, I'll send my regards to Captain for this free food delivery soon."
His words were like devil wispier, sending chills to everyone's spins, and Harold's eyes opened wide in disbelief as a terrifying notion surfaced in his mind.
"YOU! No impossible…" He was appalled, but before he could do anything, his eyelids suddenly turned heavy as a mountain, and the next moment he began to fall back.
"It's an enemy attack!" The sixth brother, who was second in command, yelled in horror as he didn't even see what happened before Vice-Captain Harold was down!
Alas, it was too late since the next moment, he also fell victim to the same hex and fell on the deck.
Appalled, the others quickly tried using their spells, but the next moment, both dwarfs who were the sorcerers and another powerful ogre suddenly gripped their heads and began to scream.
"Ahhhhh… he's in my head…."
The remaking ogres were scared out of their minds instead of fighting, they all decided to jump in the ocean. This person was simply too terrifying, as he took down the most powerful members of their group in a heartbeat.
They all thought that this was a huge trap!
Alas, they realized it too late as swords appeared in Jacob's hands before green flames ignited on sharp blades, and the next moment, he had already vanished from his spot.
On the ogre who was still in the air felt his heart palpitated, and the next moment a green streak flashed past his neck.
The others who were in the ocean began to dive.
But how could they be matched with Jacob in water?
His eyes shimmered with a blue hue, and the next moment, four thick water pillars rose from the ocean, and within those pillars were trapped the reaming four ogres like caged rats.
Without wasting a signal movement, Jacob easily decapitated them all as their blood dyed the ocean before collecting their corpse. He landed on the ship's deck, where the two dwarves and another ogre were still clenching their heads and scheming.
Jacob sneered, "It seemed your ability worked on unique rank quite effectively."
A jolly voice replied in his mind, "Hehe, I'm nothing in front of you, my master!"
