Chapter 730: Exposed without Knowing!
The locust army seemed endless, and no matter how many the ingenious were up against it or how many they killed, they didn\'t show any signs of stopping or diminishing in the least bit.
The higher-ups of the conflict plain quickly demanded a safe retreat from their superiors because they knew it was a suicide mission, and they didn\'t want to die. However, to their horror, they were given absolute order to continue fighting the locust army, and if they deserted, they\'d be put on trial and punished by death.
How could those from the territory listen to their demands? After all, the treaty had given them a clear warning that if they didn\'t want to personally be on the front line with their families and clans, they had to make sure the others wouldn\'t leave.
After experiencing the power of the locust army and observing the extremely powerful locusts patrolling around the fog island, they knew that even if they gathered together, they wouldn\'t be able to take down the enemy headquarters. So, they wanted to do everything in their power to avoid being dragged into this mess.
Furthermore, the treaty had already promised them a spot in the Path of Legend, and they seemed to have discovered the key as well, which greatly motivated the factions\' leaders and gave them reason to look the other way.
The treaty played their cards well, and despite the raging criticism all over the star network, the three factions didn\'t respond at all, as if they were blind and deaf.
At this moment, Jacob was looking at hundreds of runic containers, and each container, despite being only a meter in diameter, contained 5,000 litters of blood!
One could only imagine just what kind of bloodshed was taking place in the conflict plains, even at this moment when Diminutive was delivering the blood containers to Jacob.
Jacob looked at Diminutive and Veronica standing beside him. Both were wearing cloaks, and Jacob was also hiding his face.
"For both of our sakes, I hope you didn\'t play any tricks." Jacob nonchalantly chuckled as if he was making a joke, but his eyes started to glow as he looked at Diminutive closely.
Diminutive quickly replied in a candid tone, "Your excellency sure like to jest. It\'s a mutual partnership between us, and we are both benefiting from it, so I won\'t dare to mess this up. If you like, you can check them."
Jacob\'s eyes returned to normal, and his lips curled up in an icy smile behind his mask. He had already gotten the answer.
"Then I\'m glad. Now, if you excuse me, I\'ll be in seclusion for some time. Oh, and I have something to discuss with Miss Veronica. Give us a moment," Jacob casually stated.
Diminutive\'s eyes narrowed slightly, but he didn\'t show it in his reaction and chuckled, "Of course, take your time, I\'ll be right outside if you need anything please don\'t hesitate to call for me."
After sending Veronica a secret message, Diminutive quickly left them alone.
Once Veronica was alone with Jacob, she looked towards Jacob with expectancy as her impassive expression was no longer there. She knew Jacob was about to respond to the secret deal she proposed.
Jacob could sense Veronica\'s high expectations as he directly addressed them, "Miss Veronica, I have thought about your plight, and I\'m willing to go with your plan. However, I\'ll be the one to decide when to execute that plan. If you\'re good with it, then you may leave. I\'ve already known how to contact you."
Veronica\'s eyes shimmered with elation when she heard Jacob agree to her proposal, and she quickly nodded in agreement with Jacob\'s arrangements. She had no problem with Jacob taking the initiative. After all, she had waited for a very long time at this moment, and a little bit more waiting wasn\'t a big deal for her.
"Thank you. I\'ll wait for your reply." Veronica calmly stated before she quickly left. She didn\'t want to draw Diminutive\'s suspension by staying too long with Jacob.
Although she would have to tell him what they talked about, the contents of their talk were extremely ambiguous, and just like last time, even if Diminutive used his authority over her, The wouldn\'t be able to find anything.
Once Veronica left, Jacob finally shifted his attention to those blood containers and coldly sneered, \'He had done something to the blood. Even if he\'s a professional liar, before my eyes, he\'s nothing. But he didn\'t know that poison, curse, or any kind of toxin wouldn\'t work on me unless he used some legendary rank poison. That\'s why I had to be extremely careful...\'
The next moment, Jacob issued a command to Nyx," Analyze those continuers and emulate them in dreamscape nightmare realm. Stimulate Diminutive\'s original body as well. We\'re going to conduct _some experiments."
After Nyx evolved, the dreamscape nightmare realm\'s capabilities greatly strengthened. Nyx can now easily emulate a Quasi Legend Rank treasure or a person perfectly.
However, she can still not emulate anything related to cursed immortality or some treasures in his possession, like the Gluttony Mask and the book he found with the Curse Path Glory
Gem.
Nonetheless, Jacob wasn\'t flustered since the most important thing to him was the ability to have endless resources to conduct experiments, and this also gave him the ability to measure the strength and abilities of his enemies.
Although Diminutive was extremely secretive and hadn\'t shown anything, the moment Nyx infiltrated his dreamscape realm, his entire being exposed to Jacob, and now Jacob knew almost everything about him. He had to admit that the goblin was extremely cumbersome to deal with, especially with his ability to manipulate the space element.
Truthfully, Jacob wasn\'t confident in killing Diminutive with direct exchange because he could easily run away unless he could restrict the space abilities of a Quasi Legend, and he didn\'t have any way to do it except using his hexes.
But what shocked Jacob the most was Veronica. The moment he battled her, she killed him with a single exchange without his original abilities, even surprising Nyx. This happened ten times because Jacob figured out what was going on and how to counter her.
That\'s why Jacob was willing to help her since she was a perfect pawn with her uncanny abilities!
