Jacob calmly looked at Galant and asked, "So, you guys have a backer, and if the trolls really wanted to exterminate humans, you guys will contact that backer. Am I right?"
Galant didn't hide and nodded, "Yes."
But Jacob suddenly smiled, "But you guys didn't and let thousands of people die and almost lost your capital. Let me guess, you can only contact this person once, and it might not be for help either.
"This call is for something else, and after listening to you guys, I reckon it has something to do with the rank change. Did I guess right?"
Galant and everyone else in the room's eyes widened when they heard this because it was exactly the case!
It was a core secret that people with the same status inside this room could only know.
But Jacob had guessed it with little clues. The threat of this man in front of them reached another level higher.
Isham spoke for the first time at this moment, "Your excellency really deserved to be the strongest in the entire uncommon region.
"You have guessed almost all the truth and the biggest secret of humans, which didn't know by many.
"This method of communication was indeed for us to increase our rank once the time comes. We also weren't sure if that benefactor would help us solve this crisis, it has been over hundreds of years already, and that person might not be alive anymore.
"That's why we were hesitating for long, but then you appeared, and the war stopped, and we didn't have to waste that chance at all.
"But not only your appearance solved the crisis, but it also completed one of the conditions to raise our rank from uncommon to rare."
Jacob was quite curious about these conditions now. "What are the other conditions?"
Loop answered, "The most important one is someone with A-rank strength, which will prove our bloodline potentiating. Then we required an advanced-level figure in any profession. Either an Advance Gunsmith or an Advance Apothecary. Lastly, a Nightmare Knight.
"Once these three conditions were complete, we were told that we would be granted a safe passage and a piece of land in the rare region, and our species would then upgrade to the rare species as well.
"The entire process wasn't described, but the three hegemonies have a very important part in this. That's why we were here to discuss these with you, and King Philip also knew about it.
"But under the pretext of testing your strength, he led the army here, but it seemed we were underestimating his excellency."
Galant flashed a sharp glance at Loop when he heard this timid fellow who always hid whenever he saw him in the past now had become brave enough to bad-mouth the king in front of him without having any fear.
But he knew he couldn't do anything to Loop with Jacob here, and Loop knew that too so he could only pretend he heard nothing.
Isham ignored Loop's content expression after getting back at Galant and sincerely looked at Jacob, "From his excellency's record, you're also a Basic Gunsmith, but Drew said you might have the skills of an Advance Gunsmith. It means all the conditions can be met, and we can upgrade our rank and leave this place for good.
"Didn't your excellency want to go in the rare region also? This way, you can take your entire race with you and don't have to be afraid of being lonely.
"Not only that, but I heard the resources in the rare region were also ample, and every species with an A-rank expert had many advantages over those without any.
"Even if you don't want to be a ruler, as long as you help us upgrade our rank, we'll be eternally grateful and all the future generations for this immeasurable kindness."
ραпdα nᴏνɐ| сom Everyone looked at Jacob with hope in their eyes.
They were all here to persuade Jacob to agree to this, and he didn't have any reason to say no because he wasn't losing anything. On the contrary, once they enter the rare region, he would have millions of loyal followers under him.
It was far better than being alone.
Jacob's expression didn't change at all, and looked at all of them somewhat amused, and said, "If only it was so easy. Since you guys said your piece, let me say mine now. It was also the reason I sent the nobles out."
Everyone looked at each other with uncertainty. They were forgotten for the moment that Jacob also had something to tell them that required the absence of the nobles.
Galant also looked at Jacob with some suspicion, because Jacob didn't seem to be moved at all, as if this was a trivial matter.
Jacob coolly said at this moment, "I'm warning everyone if any of this information leaks from this room, trust me, no one will remain alive. Not even me, and we all have to be extremely secretive about it. Is that clear?"
Everyone nodded with grave expressions when they heard this. Even an A-rank expert like Jacob was afraid.
"First, I would like to break your illusion. I'm not the only A-rank expert in uncommon. But the trolls also have one, and they had one far before my appearance!" Jacob said matter-of-factly.
"How is that possible?!" Galant rebutted without hesitation.
He knew this was nothing but a joke because they won't be alive if trolls had an A-rank expert, and they also won't back down if they had one since they won't fear Jacob at all.
Everyone thought the same.
Jacob expected it and calmly said, "See? You know nothing about anything. Let me ask you again, do you know about the killer skull society?"
Again silence, and everyone looked at Jacob with doubt since they had never heard of this name before.
Jacob sighed ruefully, "Yet, you still dare to think of entering the rare region? How laughable. I want everyone to contact higher region branches, and if you can't then use that opportunity to contact that person and tell him that the Killer Skull Society…!"
