Cursed Immortality-Chapter 646 Seclusion Under Star Ocean

Jacob observed the city from a distance. He didn't dare get too close since his appearance didn't match the Orange Sturgeon at all, and if he were spotted, everyone would notice him.

Furthermore, with his eyes, he could see a huge glob around the entire city emitting faint color particles.

'There is an array formation around that place. How peculiar…' He mused before he averted his eyes and decided to find another secluded place.

He had no intention of going there, and he was not interested in the ocean races, as they were of little allure to him. Since he was already on the ocean floor and had already spotted the inhabitants of the star ocean, he knew he couldn't be reckless.

Unlike last time, this part of the star ocean wasn't barren and filled with ocean weeds and all kinds of ocean fauna and flora. He even found some small creatures hidden among them, and they were epic rank, at least.

The gravity here is around 600 times greater than the surface, and if someone didn't have a physique like Jacob's that had undergone powerful gravity before, they would be absolutely crushed in this place.

After the city was no longer in sight, Jacob looked around and found a dark mountain in the distance. When he reached close enough, he found that it was a black coral with long threads sawing in the water like tentacles!

'It's a good place and excellent hideout…' Jacob mused before swords appeared in his hands.

He directly approached the mountain-like corral and, using the water mana, he started slashing its body like he was carving a sculpture; the entire mountain trembled for a moment before going dormant again.

Jacob knew this corral was a Unique Rank creature, but under his dominant attacks, it didn't stand a chance.

Soon, Jacob opened a cave in the corral. Although it was somewhat disgusting and a potent poison was leaking from its body, he was completely fine. He then used the outer part that he carved out like a door to block the entrance, and now it looked the same. No one would be able to tell that someone was living within this corral unless they tried to destroy it or had intentions like Jacob's.

After opening a large space, Jacob also set an array that he had prepared beforehand since he had the intention of doing the same thing from the start. This array was an alarm array that would instantly alert him if someone entered its fifty-radius range.

'Now, I should get rid of this poison…' He clapped his hands together and started to cast a spell of Whammy Poison, "Poison Gather!"

The black water around him suddenly churned, and the next moment, a glowing black dot appeared above Jacob's hands. Thereafter, the tiny dot suddenly began to expand, and strangely, the black water started to turn transparent again.

Soon, an inky glob around a meter in size was in front of him, and all the poison in the water was completely purified. He then took out a glass bottle, and using the water magic, he controlled the glob as he filled the bottle and stowed it away.

Now that there was no more poison in the water, he moved to the next step for what he did all this. The Orange Sturgeon that he captured, still in slumber, appeared in front of him.

Although he wasn't going to move around the ocean race territory, he wanted to collect information from this guy. After all, knowing this place will have a greater advantage to him without any disadvantage.

Before lifting the curse, Jacob made sure that the Orange Sturgeon wouldn't cause any trouble. He used his eyes to find the location where all the magic in the Orange Sturgeon was compressed.

After locating the magic core, he placed his finger above his belly. The next moment, the finger suddenly lit up in a green sheen, and the surrounding water suddenly began to heat up, and sizzling bubbles appeared.

'Tsk, my fire energy consumption is triple underwater as expected.' Jacob sighed as he knew the fire mana was almost useless underwater, and just to keep it activated, he required more than the usual amount of energy to sustain it, not to mention it was still weakened by half.

Jacob then stopped lamenting and directly stabbed his finger right where the Orange Sturgeon's magic core was. He carefully cracked the magic core, and the magic energy stowed within the Orange Sturgeon suddenly leaked out.

This was one of the ways to make someone magically crippled without killing them. If he had destroyed the magic core, the Orange Sturgeon would've been dead.

Furthermore, Jacob also noticed that this Orange Sturgeon's body was far sturdier than the people on the surface, slightly worse than his own. This was most likely because of the gravity they lived under.

After making sure the Orange Sturgeon wouldn't be able to retaliate, he bound him with special ropes he bought in the dark city that could restrain even a giant, and only then did he release the cure.

The Orange Sturgeon's eyes snapped open in bewilderment before horrifying pain replaced them. He wailed loudly in pain, and when he saw the giant in front of him, his bloodshot eyes shone with hatred and killing intent. If looks could kill, Jacob would've died thousands of times under such a murderous glare.

Jacob completely ignores the furious fish and tries to speak by using water magic to convert sound waves to vibrations that travel through water. He got this inspiration from these guys when he saw them communicate using the same method before.

With his excitement control over mana and soul force, it wasn't hard for him to imitate the same thing.

"C-can… y.y-you under…stand…me?" Jacob's voice was almost like a broken radio since he had never done this before, but he was still able to convert the vibrations into words, which was the crux of this method.

The Orange Sturgeon was startled when he saw Jacob using the same method as them to communicate before he furiously began to make strange gibberish noises, "Hpqoikc, lhljlljlj kjlioqqpqv…"

Jacob frowned as he knew what was going on and mused, 'It seemed the ocean races had their own unique language, just like the dark beings, and since these guys seldom encountered the surface, only their higher-ups might know the common language.

'I can't get anything if I don't understand what the hell is he saying. If only Autarch were awake, he could've easily gotten the language and information and then taught it to me. I should keep this guy for now, and once he awakes, it would be easier.'

After getting nowhere on his own, he didn't waste time and punched the furious Orange Sturgeon unconscious before stowing him back in the infinity pendant.

Jacob's eyes then flashed with anticipation before a box appeared in his hand, 'Now, let's see what this legendary key looks like; that made me offend that bug bitch looks like!'
