BXBX NOVEL Chapter 41 Vague Encounter
Furthermore, the infinity pendant was the perfect place to store these things because it could keep them in the same condition they were stored. This was the biggest advantage he had of this storage space, and he wanted to increase it, so he could also store Pig Head inside if needed.
Notwithstanding, he quickly collected the sufficient amount of blood he needed for the extraction process and also cut open the jaguar\'s chest and acquired its heart, and throw it into the blood-filled container as well before storing it away.
"Sigh, finally now I don\'t have to worry about anything…" Jacob breathed in relief before a cold drop fell on his head and he looked at the dark sky.
Within a few moments, heavy rain poured down and wash away all the blood on the group and completely soaked both of them.
Jacob couldn\'t help but closed his eyes and enjoy this rain shower after a very, very long time, and a distant memory surfaced in his mind,
---
It was a dark, rainy night when a middle-aged man was dragged into the rain by a beautiful woman as she laughs lovingly with elation while pulling this middle-aged man around despite his burly build.
The middle-aged man helplessly said, "Hope, let\'s go inside. What if you catch a cold!"
Hope giggles in excitement and retorted, "JS, you\'re always cooped up in that shitty lab of yours, or tanning fields. You have to enjoy nature something and make happy memories!"
JS replied with a faint smile and pull Hope into her embrace, "Really, I guess you\'re right. But what if I forget? Don\'t you need to do something to make it an everlasting memory?"
Hope wrapped her slender arms around JS\'s muscular neck and looked lovingly into his eyes and seductively said, "We have never done \'it\' in rain…"

Rumble…
Jacob\'s eyes snapped open with a hint of melancholy as the thunderclap rang.
He looked at Pig Head, who was standing beside him like a log, as his blood was gushing out from that deep wound on his chest and washing away with the rain.
A bottle filled with black liquid appeared in his hand and he gave it to Pig Head, "Drink it, at this rate you\'ll bleed to death."
He had stored some black liquid just for emergencies like these before moving out.
After drinking it, the blood from the injury suddenly stopped, and the wound was mending, but very slowly.
"Let\'s go back and pick up the carcass. This rain won\'t stop anytime soon, and there might be some predators appearing in this rain soon." Jacob\'s command coolly and they walk toward the hideout.
Although most animals will hide when rained, this place was not ordinary, so he didn\'t want to put his life at risk, and he already got what he wanted, so there wasn\'t any need to be greedy.
To make sure Pig Head\'s wound won\'t get worse, they move at a slow pace, and they took triple the time to reach the hideout position from the time they travel before.
However, Jacob\'s footstep came to an abrupt halt at this moment while his eyes narrowed into slits.
\'Thum… Thumm…\'
\'Footsteps?\' His hearing has become extremely sensitive after his first injection and even in this rain he could hear small sounds from a few tens of meters away and these sounds were extremely startling.
Jacob knit his eyebrows together because these large footsteps were also approaching his hideout and at a quick pace, and if he tried to enter the hideout now, he\'ll meet the owners of those footsteps before he could close the door.
"Let\'s hide." Jacob quickly commanded Pig Head, and they slowly creep behind the large tree only a few meters away from the hideout.
Jacob wanted to wait and let whoever it was passed before going back since they won\'t be able to find the hidden door.
However, he soon saw something which left him in horror and gobsmacked. Even from his place, he saw two large cocked heads appearing from the trees, and they were extremely tall!
Even from his place, he could see those two towering figures and his heart trembled when a word came to his mind, \'Giants!\'
Instantly, more information flooded what he read from Decker\'s journal, and he felt goosebumps.
\'Could they be mountain giants, a rarer race, and also the ones who Decker stole the Immortika from? But how did they appear here, so far from their home and so close to this hideout? Did that bastard make some kind of mistake and reveal himself?!\' Jacob suddenly felt like killing Decker again in the curliest way possible.
Because if what he guessed was true, then he was in massive trouble right now, and if he didn\'t leave, there won\'t be any chance for him in the future. He didn\'t dare to face those massive mountain giants, no… he didn\'t even think about it because he wasn\'t even the size of their waistline, and they could easily crush them like an ant.
Now all he could pray was those giants won\'t know about the hideout yet and only stumbled upon this area and just passed by. So, he could quickly get some more black liquid and other important stuff and leave this place.
However, a furtive voice that sounded from their feet made Jacob\'s heart palpitate. "Milords, this is the place, and the hidden door is only a few meters away. Follow me!"
\'Fuck!\'
Jacob cursed, and he knew he has been discovered by someone else, and even though he can\'t see the person because of all those long bushes, he knew that might be the culprit who led those giants here!
