While Jacob was getting astounded by the new information about the mysterious swords or keys, just three rooms away from where he was sitting, two goblins were sitting within a runic circle surrounded by a translucent barrier.

"Do you find him?" A stoically cold voice rang in one of the goblin's heads.

The goblin impassively replied through his thought, "Yes sir, we tracked down the Offender Ring No.493940, which was sold to Captain Free Sword 239 years ago. But the person currently wearing it is an unknown giant."

"Is that so?" The voice sounded surprised, "I've heard that the Dark Begins have most likely captured Captain Free Sword. I was wondering why his Offender Ring was activated in the Unique Plains.

"The Offender Ring can not only hide a star criminal below 4-star from the SAAI and let them enter the Unique Plains, but it can also work as an invisible shield for anyone under 4-star privilege as well. Anyone can be like a ghost. So, this ring is as important as his life for a person like Captain Free Sword, so I don't think he just sold it or dropped it somewhere.

"Everyone has been tracking down Captain Free Sword for years, and we were left far behind when we were closest to grabbing him. Now, he appeared again in the Dead Faction Territory and even terrorized them, and since we didn't receive the signal from the Offender Ring, that means he wasn't wearing it.

"He's been missing for eight years, and now he suddenly becomes so suicidal, and someone else is wearing his Offender Ring; there is something very strange about this situation. Tell me, what is the power level of this unknown giant?" The voice coldly questioned.

The goblin thoughtfully replied, "He's 20.1 meters tall; although I can't sense his aura, he should be tier-8 or tier-9 unique. Currently, he didn't know we were tracking him."

"Let's assume he's tier-9, so we'll take the same level measures. Anyone related to Captain Free Sword can't be overlooked. Continue to follow him. I'll send more people, and we'll grab him once we get the chance. Also, if you can, try finding his star ID. It'll be easier to find his background with it."

"Yes, sir!" The goblin agreed before the call went off.

"What are our orders?" The second goblin realized the call was over, so he impassively asked.

"Continue the tailing until backup arrives, and if we get the chance, we should find his star ID." The first goblin replied.

"This should be easy. Didn't he buy those old swords from the dwarf shop? If we can pay some price, that dwarf might tell us his star ID." The second goblin suggested.

"Hmm, good idea." The first goblin's eyes brightened, "You go, and I'll stay here and keep an eye on him. If anything happens in the meantime, I'll alert you."

The second goblin agreed and left toward the market.

Jacob was unaware that a very powerful secret organization had locked on him, and his star ID was endangered of being exposed because of the Offender Ring he was wearing.

Jacob remained shocked for a while after getting the information about the two keys before he finally started asking questions. But like always, Immortika was done giving the hints and no longer told him about the place it was hinting at or where it was.ᴛʜɪs ᴄʜᴀᴘᴛᴇʀ ɪs ᴜᴘᴅᴀᴛᴇ ʙʏ ɴovᴇl_Firᴇ.ɴet

In the end, Jacob could only give up and carefully stowed away the swords since there was no point in dwelling on them. Since Immortika had already revealed that he would find the secret of those swords eventually, he just had to wait patiently.

Still, it causes him to become somewhat uneasy since the subtle explanation he got from Immortika was too mystic, spooky even. The fighting giant spirit was becoming increasingly unfathomable, and he knew he had to be as careful as possible in the future.

Since his curiosity about the swords was somewhat subdued, there was no point in staying here anymore. He wasn't here to rest, so he quickly left and directly headed towards the Alchemy Guild.

As the ruling power of the Potion Alchemy City, the guild naturally had a grand headquarters here. It covered around fifty miles area in the center of the city, and there were many magnificent skyscrapers, all belonging to a different department of alchemy guild and a heaven for alchemists.

This place was also called the Alchemy Guild Zone, and only alchemists or at least 2-star privilege holders were allowed inside.

The grandest building was naturally the Potion Alchemy department building in the center of the Alchemy Guild Zone, and it was also the place where the most famous potion alchemist of the unique plains and the city lord resides, Advanced Great Elder Potion Alchemist Karim.

After showing his star privilege, Jacob was given the pass to enter the Alchemy Guild Zone. He directly headed towards the Potion Alchemy Department Building, and despite the restrictions, many outsiders were inside to commission alchemists.

The most crowded place was naturally the Potion Alchemy Department as well!

When Jacob saw many people within the building lobby and respectfully trying to please the workers to get a meeting with top-rank alchemists, especially to commission Great Elder Karim himself, he frowned since this would be quite hard as his target was also Karim.

'I have to take a long approach.' He thought before he spotted a young fox orc alchemist attendant and approached him.

"Hello, I want to commission a potion alchemist, at least a senior grandmaster rank. Where should I go?" Jacob directly stated his purpose.

The young fox orc was surprised to see the towering Jacob. He was like a small baby in front of him. He gulped before replying, "Sir, if you only want to commission a Senior Grandmaster Potion Alchemist, then you should follow the commission hallway right there, and they will receive your request and set up a meeting with a Senior Grandmaster Potion Alchemist."

After seeing where the young fox orc was pointing, Jacob impassively thanked him before heading that way. Those guys who were making commotions here were all those who wanted to commission at least an Elder Alchemist or Great Elder Alchemist since those levels of alchemists were all prominent figures and didn't just accept commissions from anyone.

So, they naturally need these lower-ranking alchemists to put good words for them. Even the elder rank alchemists were treated like nobles here.

Jacob quickly found an empty counter and stated his request and the elven woman skimmed through some books before she sent a message through her star watch.

"Sir, please take the guest lift to the 84th floor. Senior Grandmaster Alchemist Jeremiah's apprentice will lead you to the meeting." She smilingly stated.

Jacob nodded and headed towards the lift at the end of the commission hallway and headed to the 84th floor!
