Chapter 290 Reaching The Meeting Point
After his \'chat\' with Apocalyptic-S, Jacob was not feeling as apprehensive as he should have. On the contrary, he wasn\'t feeling anything, as if it was just a normal day of his day-to-day life.
What he was concerned about were those ten space rings he got from A-0, and he wanted to see just what kind of treasures they held that even someone like Apocalyptic-S contacted him personally. Especially when she belonged to an organization like Killer Skull Society, her Star ID should be top secret.
\'As long as I\'m in rare plains, I should be fine. I just need to be careful about my departure from the rare plains. I can\'t let anyone know I\'m leaving rare plains, or the killer skull society might not be the only one seeking revenge.
\'I\'m pretty sure that Lucy\'s character would suffer some repercussion after I killed probably all the official mercenaries in the dark city. I haven\'t even left this place yet, and here I already have terrifying enemies in the epic plains.
\'So, I need more precautions than I already have. And I just happened to head such a place which is helpful…\' Jacob\'s lips rose in a faint, icy smile as he picked up speed.
After two hours of traveling at his top speed without fluid acceleration, he stopped in the middle of the forest while he looked at the hologram map on his wrist.
"The location he sent me should be around somewhere here," Jacob uttered under his breath before he sent a call request to Earth Great Minor!
After five seconds, the call was finally picked up, and a hoarse voice, almost as if dry leaves were rattling together, rang, "Y-you better be calling me to give me good news!" It was clear that Mason was quite desperate.
"I\'m standing at the location you gave me." Jacob coolly replied as he was smiling when he heard Mason\'s voice. He knew this guy was at the end of his tether.
"Excellent!" Mason almost cried in mirth when he heard Jacob\'s words and quickly cut the call.
Jacob knew he probably cut the call because he was coming to get him, and he focused on his hearing to hear his footsteps.
But to his surprise, he suddenly felt a faint tremor under his feet before he saw that just ten meters left from his standing position, the trees suddenly started to shift left and right as if they were sliding.
Under Jacob\'s astonished eyes, the trees slide over five meters, revealing an underground pathway.
\'Impressive.\' He thought as he could clearly tell this hideout was much more high-tech than the hideouts he had seen in the common plains.
Jacob understands one thing about the people with secrecy in these plains. They could hide anywhere and build structures like these underground hideouts in the middle of nowhere. They didn\'t need a huge army of workers to build them. Just their own power was enough to achieve it
Jacob himself was now fully capable of creating such a hideout in half a month, but he knew it was just a waste of his energy since he needed to move around all the time. He can\'t stay in one place unless he gives up on immortality.
Maybe in the future, when he needs to research for an extensive amount of time and needs absolute secrecy, he might make such a base. Or in case he had enemies coming for him from all directions.
After the pathway was opened, Jacob then walked towards it. But he wasn\'t just going to walk right into it. This place should be a tiger\'s cave, for all he knows.
Although he was considered almost invincible among the living in the rare plains right now, he wasn\'t invincible if someone had a weapon like his Iron Titan Sniper or even stronger.
He had already seen what kind of consequence one could suffer if he gave his enemies chances to retaliate like A-0. If he hadn\'t stopped to hesitate while using his sniper rifle when he did, who knows what kind of trump cards he would unleash on him?
Right now, he was going to meet a desperate man who was on the verge of dying, and that guy might lose his mind and want to drag him down with him. A dying person who had nothing to lose was fully capable of doing that. He knew too well about this fact.
Furthermore, he was sure this guy had experimented with the plutonium, and no matter how brave Jacob was, even he was afraid of radioactive bombs.
Even if he knew that it was, likely, not possible for them to create such a thing without any prior knowledge of what plutonium was, as long as the possibility existed, he had to be extremely wary.
For a moment, Jacob\'s entered 20X acceleration which was the current limit of his ability after getting his body to epic rank. Then he returned to being normal as if nothing had happened.
But for Jacob, in that very moment, he sensed too many things, and after processing all that information, he started descending the stairway.
The straw was thirty feet deep, and Jacob found himself in a small corridor, and at the end of this corridor was a metal door that was just opening.
Jacob walked with an impassive look in his eyes, and he entered a 40 cubic meter space that was actually filled with all kinds of equipment. The temperature of this place was quite low, probably around two or four degrees Celsius.
The instant Jacob\'s eyes landed on that equipment, he quickly identified many of them, \'So, this guy is an explosive expert.\'
Although he didn\'t see any finished product to back his conjuncture, he knew better than anyone what an explosive expert\'s lab looked like because he was one himself.
At this moment, the door behind him started to get closed, and so did the pathway at the end to the stairway, and footsteps rang in the silent lab!
