The blade appeared literally out of nowhere, and the moment Jacob realized that it was there, it was already touching his mask's eye, which was made with a basic-type-1 glass known as Sky Glass.

Sky glass has a clear reflection on one side while the other side looks like a solid surface, and it is quite sturdy and stainless. Not even an Advance Type-0 weapon could scratch its surface.

However, the assassins were clearly quite professional, and they probably knew what kind of target they were going to assassinate, so they clearly won't come with some type-0 weapons.

So, Jacob knew that even if he managed to evade, his eye was as good as gone. What he should be worried about was that blade managed to penetrate deep into his skull.

That's why Jacob started to retract his head backward while the blade edge was already breaking past the sky glass and now only a hair away from touching the cornea, and almost at the same time, it turned fiery crimson!

Thereby, Jacob felt a sharp, fiery pain in his eye as if someone was piercing his eye with a scorching skewer.

When the bade finally started to enter it, his entire eye went blind, leaving only the fiery pain.

But he knew it was unavoidable. As the blade entered three to four-millimeter-deep into his eye socket, it started to go upward toward his eyebrow because of Jacob's timely retracing his head backward.

However, this didn't mean he was out of the wood, not by a long, showing that fiery blade directly cut through his eye and skin. It even managed to scorch his skull before its left's Jacob head.

Not only did the blade manage to take out his eye and nearly kill him, but his mask and hood were also blown apart by the sharp, fiery intent behind that blade.

Jacob's face was revealed, with a deeply charred gush over his left eye, while his right bloodshot eye was deadly cold and filled with disbelief. He never thought he would come closer to death despite his current prowess in the rare plains.

He thinks of himself as someone who could easily avoid danger in the rare plains. But now he knows he was too naïve. No amount of preparation could compare to the unknown dangers, and this lesson could only learn through deadly experiences.

Jacob looked at the crimson blade going over his head, and at this moment, his heart rate jumped to 20X acceleration.

The gush on his eye started to mend visibly the moment he entered that state, while his other amber eye turned bright golden before multiple colors shimmered in his retina.

The moment seemed to slow down for Jacob, and he could overwatch his surrounding in one meter like that was now part of his vision. There wasn't any blind spot nor any hidden enemies in this range anymore.

Jacob's hand moved from the back, which was blocking the attack from behind, and directly slashed toward the blade's owner, who was in a straight position which his sword moving over Jacob's head.

His sword cut passed the hand holding the blade before it moved directly toward the neck.

Before the other party realized it, he was cleaved into three pieces, and Jacob's body moved so fast those other four attacks were still probably thinking that he was pinned down, while he was now almost freed from that deadly lock.

The 20X acceleration was something that could make his speed increase by 20 times, as well as his reaction speed. His mind works at terrifying speed while his vision sees many things which he can't normally see.

The most terrifying about achieving a 20X boost on his current level was that one-meter zone where Jacob felt he was a god and nothing could escape him. So, he called it God's Zone.

However, this didn't mean there wasn't any price to pay. In 20X acceleration, his body energy also rapidly depleted to fuel that massive acceleration.

Jacob's conjecture was he could only maintain this acceleration for around 1 minute, even with the Unique Endurance of a Wyvern, or his body would start burning his muscles.

That's why he didn't use it carelessly since he would need a massive amount of nutrition to regain his peak condition.

However, now, after almost dying, he couldn't care less about that price. He wanted these guys dead!

The remaining four finally realized that their companion was dead when his sword-wielding hand, head, and body started to split into three pieces, and somehow Jacob's speed greatly surpassed their own reaction speed.

ραпdα---nᴏνa| сom When any of them realized that Jacob was gone and now attacking them, it was already too late as his sword was hacking down toward the three guys in front, like unstoppable wind, and slipped past them like a butter knife before they could even react.

Jacob then finally turned around toward the last guy who attacked from behind while the blood wasn't even falling to the ground of his newly cleaved victims.

His eye was exempt from any emotion, and only bloodlust was emitting from his very being.

Without hesitation, he threw his sword toward the last person who was trying to retreat but appeared extremely slow in Jacob's vision, and the sword directly stabbed into his head!

Only after confirming that there weren't any more attackers did Jacob start to calm down, and his heart exited the acceleration state. His entire skin was scorching while steam was rising. He looked like a crimson devil with his one scorched eye.

At this moment, the barrier above suddenly burst like a bubble before the rain started to pour down again. This clearly has something to do with those five attackers' death.

Jacob felt somewhat better under that cold rain and finally took a careful look at the appearance of those five death assassins. Before, he only cared about killing them and didn't have time to waste looking at their appearance.

The moment he saw those corpses, his eye turned deadly cold, but there was a hint of dread present in it.

Those five were dressed in white robes with black hourglass symbols on their chests while their bodies were wrapped in black gauze. They were just like those two mysterious figures hovering on the discs he killed on the day of the massacre!
