Cursed Immortality

Within a week, Jacob and his crew used eight more teleportation points of the Zodiac Night Federation.

The teleportation points were actually platforms engraved with teleportation formations hidden within the depths of the star ocean. To use them, one needed a corresponding key rune and a special starting sequence only known to the Zodiac Night Federation.

They are hidden fifty miles away from each other and are almost impossible to find without accurate coordinates. Each teleportation cost 1,000 Advanced Unique Rank Magic Gems.

That was supposed to be the well-guarded secret of the Zodiac Night Federation, but it is now in the hands of Jacob. He was taking full advantage of it, and he shortened his eight years' worth of voyage into five.

As for the Zodiac Night Federation's nine ships, they were always a step too slow, and before they could even pin down his location, he had already used another one, and this made them flustered.

The reinforcement from the headquarters would also take some time before they could catch up to Jacob's location. Still, if this continued, they were bound to cross each other paths. Moreover, they can't stop them either not till the reinforcement reaches the target, or it would take many years to catch up to him.

Jacob knew this too well, and he wanted them to stop those teleportation points because this way, they wouldn't be able to send more reinforcement in a short time. That's why he decided to take such a risk to expose himself.

Although it was still dangerous, he didn't want too many pursuers on his tail. Furthermore, he knew they might not give up and continue to tail him all the way to the Unique Plains and blow the matter.

Once that happened, it would be the same situation as the epic plains for him, and the dark duke of the unique plains might also see through the façade.

That's why he decided to take a detour to get rid of the Zodiac Night Federation or at least steer them in another direction. This way, by the time they realized what was going on, he would already be long gone.

Furthermore, this detour was very beneficial for him, so after using three more teleportation points, Jacob headed north at full speed, completely steering away from the route of the unique plains.

On this day, a massive flying ship with a purple crescent moon symbol, even larger than Jacob's, appeared above this teleportation point.

There were fifty purple-rank Zodiac Night Guardians in this massive ship, including the Purple Guardian Reginald! This force was enough to shock the entire unique plains since purple-rank guardians never make a move.

"Alright, this is the last teleportation point that was used three hours ago. All the other teleportation channels have been blocked. Our target should be in our range now, and they can no longer run anymore. Where is Keegan's ground?" Reginald coldly declared in front of the purple rank guardians in front of him.

There was another person standing beside him, which meant they were equal in terms of status.

It was a snake pupil woman with diamond-shaped orange scales, and two poisonous fangs were creeping out of her pale blue lips. Her gaze was cold and bloodthirsty. She was also like Reginald, another purple guardian who belonged to the top ten in the federation, Elspeth.lightsnovel

Elspeth hoarsely replied as her voice sounded quite eerie, "I've contacted him. He seemed to have discovered trails of the target and was now following them."

lightsnοvεl A hint of ecstasy flashed in Reginald's eyes, "Where are they going? Did they spot them?"

"From the report, they are heading north. But they still weren't able to spot them. But occasionally, the flying ship's signal would appear. It is very strange. I think we are deliberately being led in this direction. After all, we can only track the ship's signal when it is used in teleportation, but now, all of a sudden, the signal would appear in short intervals. Don't you find it strange?" Elspeth impassively stated.

She had been carefully studying the information she was receiving, and she knew just how strange this situation was.

First, their enemy was able to hide the special signal that even a space ring can't at will. Second, the enemy somehow got accurate information on their hidden teleportation points and even the activation sequence.

But all of a sudden, when they were about to prepare for an ambush and close the teleportation channels, their target didn't head for the other teleportation point; instead, they changed the direction entirely.

Moreover, they even begin to receive signals from the missing ship, it was as if their target were deliberately luring them toward them. Elspeth was the head of the intelligence department of the federation, so she was extremely astute and careful.

She knew just how important this mission was, and that's why she was sent with Reginald. So, she didn't want to mess this up.

Reginald's expression also turned grave as he knew Elspeth had a solid point and despite she ranked below him, he didn't dare to underestimate her. Even the Federation Master treats her carefully.

"What do you suggest? If it's a trap, I don't believe they can harm us. After all, according to the information, Captain Free Sword only had a crew of 32 people, and only he is at the tier-8 unique rank aura user among them. With both of us here, we can easily crush him no matter what kind of trick he pulls." Reginald confidently stated.

Elspeth shook her head, "It's not so simple. The last time he was corned, he had used an ancient scroll to teleport somewhere with his entire ship. We can't underestimate him. He's one of the top star pirates of the unique plains for hundreds of years so he might have more trump cards.

"First, we need to make sure he won't be able to teleport away, and the Federation Master has lent me a treasure just for this. But to use it, I need five minutes, and if he realizes, he might run away again.

"Furthermore, this treasure would also block us as well, so we should be careful to avoid collateral damage as much as possible."

Her snake eyes turned sharp as she looked north, "Besides, if I'm not wrong, this direction leads to the territory of the Dead Faction, and all lifeforms are forbidden there!"
