Under the cold morning breeze, Jacob stood in a small clearing of the trees. However, he seemed odd as he kept staring in front of him despite there being nothing but trees.
At this moment, Autarch's voice rang from the same spot where Jacob was looking, "It's as you predicted."
The next moment he appeared out of nowhere, and surprisingly, he was hovering above the ground as he stood on top of the same bronze disc that the Bronze Puppet Assassin was riding the other night.
"Although this disc is a very powerful stealth treasure, even more, powerful than the gray color ones.
"But the person who used it has to be very strong willpower because the more you channel magic into it, a strange mental power would try to attack your mind, making it less calm and more violent, and the effect is five times greater than the gray one.
"Especially if someone already has a weak mind or some deep resentment or anger issues, they will instantly lose control of their mind the moment they try to use these discs.
"Unless someone has my ability to control the brain to perfection and is almost immune to these petty tricks, it's very dangerous to use these discs. I wonder if it's possible to remove this mental power somehow, and then it would be completely safe to use for Sir." Autarch gave his assessment with an emotionless expression.
Jacob's eyes shimmered in understanding as well as coldness when he thought about what had happened in the Dark Castle, and he was even glad that it was Water Wave who tried this disc, not Hallberg, or it would be a huge problem.
'Since they dare to put up such a vicious trap on these discs so no one can use them against them, then this means those mutants might not have any effect on their brains at all.
'Nevertheless, it would be a problem to use these things unless I have the Brain Hunter's natural talent in mentality. Well, it might be a good trump card to escape in grave situations when I have no choice. But before any of that, I need to awaken the magic to use it.
'But awakening magic is becoming more and more cumbersome as every time I put my mind to it, something comes up and destroys my efforts. The Rare Plains, which seemed like safe haven, have turned out to be a wolf den….'
Jacob was really perplexed at his current predicament. He didn't dare to enter the water meditation state after his last assassination attempt. He didn't believe he would always be so lucky to avoid that kind of attack, especially if multiple bronze robe guys showed up.
So, he deiced to sort out all those things in A-0's space ring in one night with Autarch's help, and he separated them all according to their use and those items they couldn't seem to identify, like the magic scrolls. Jacob put them into a separate space ring.
It took both of them four hours to sort out those 23 space rings, and Jacob really felt like a rich businessman at this moment since those ZCs made with the items sold he left in the dark city also kept coming.
Afterward, he took out the bronze disc and let Autarch master it as well as test if this thing had some hidden effect on the user since the last time, he almost made a blunder. Now things were clear.
Jacob then asked, "What about magic consumption?"
"I can use it for 2 hours with nine-star magic core capacity without using the stealth feature, and if I use the stealth feature, then only for 30 to 40 minutes. Furthermore, this body is continuing to regress as my Brain Devourer keeps absorbing the three primary components of this body.
"I need to keep absorbing nine-star magic core every hour to keep this body's magic core from the start dropping in its rank as well as I also need rejuvenation pills or potions with the same effect to keep this body from starting to decompose in a few hours," Autarch stated.
Jacob nodded as he calmly uttered, "I guess we got all those supplies at the right time then. We have more than enough to last for a long while, and we can make just as much, even far more. But this will slow down your growth rate since you won't be able to change hosts more often.
"But the situation demands it, so you have to wait before I'm done with the rare plains, and afterward, you can have all the prey you want since there will be a long journey ahead of us."
"No problem. I'll follow Sir's arrangement. My advancement matters little in front of your improvement. I might not be able to survive without Sir's backing, so you are also my top priority." Autarch said with a deadpan expression.
"I'm glad you can understand that. So, let's not waste more time. How much weight do you think this disc can carry?" Jacob asked.
"I try picking up a boulder about four hundred pounds and fly with it, and you will be glad to know that its speed or agility was not effective at all," Autarch replied.
Jacob's lips curled up in a content smile, "Then it would be a breeze to attach another small plank on its back, and it can carry us both toward the wild nation. This will also save us the pain of crossing paths with the Dark Being Army as well as huge time."
Since this disc was as capable as Jacob predicted it to be, he wasn't going to shy away from using it. Furthermore, this disc only affected those who were using it, not the passenger sitting over far away from it.
From the start, Jacob was planning on using this disc to travel and save tremendous time, and with Autarch, it was going to be quite easy as well.
So, Jacob quickly got to work, and with a tree plank, he carved out a thick rectangular plank, and from one side, it was hollow, and there were many clips within that hollow.
The bronze disk, like a wheel, easily fits in those clips, and then he binds them with a special material.
Now, the bronze disk has been etched into a rectangular plank which looked like a straight board as Jacob sat at the back while Autarch was standing on the disk.
Jacob care less about appearances as he commanded coldly, "Let us go toward the Wild Nation of the Dark Beings!"
