Chapter 824 Tactical Withdrawal!
The woman's expression didn't change much, but her mind raced as she coldly stared at Jacob and questioned Chaotic Darkness, "Which part exactly? About the legendary treasure or leaving this place?"
"The latter."
A hint of surprise flashed past her pitch-black eyes, "So, does this mean he really has a Fable Legendary Treasure?"
"If he can't lie in front of me, then yes, he has it!"
The woman looked at Jacob thoughtfully. She didn't think this person would give her so many surprises, and she wondered if he was really from the Lesser Galaxy of Taurus.
But since Chaotic Darkness had confirmed it, she believed it. A legendary rank treasure holds quite an allure to someone like her, and she had already claimed a Legendary King State Legacy from the Tower of Capricorn and knew how powerful it was.
She also wanted a legendary king state treasure, but she couldn't choose both, so she was in sullen mode at that time. However, that legacy was more important, so she chose it after an intense internal struggle.
However, now Jacob was offering her a Fable Legendary State Treasure. Although she didn't know why he was lying about the other part, she still wanted that Fable Legendary State Treasure and Chaotic Darkness just confirmed that he really had it.
Just like she had Chaotic Darkness to detect lies, Jacob had the Judgement Gaze to do the same, despite lacking in front of a Universal Godly Scripture. But he instantly knew that she was telling the truth, and that was enough to give him more information to work with.
So, without announcing, he instantly left because he was observing how she hadn't unsummoned the Chaotic Darkness after she summoned it. Her delay in reply also made Jacob sure that she was in discussion with the Chaotic Darkness in the midst of their conversation.
Jacob knew that if the Chaotic Darkness were like Cursed Immortality that could detect other origins, he'd be in big trouble. But since that woman didn't react much, Jacob became doubtful. With how Immortika reacts, he mused that as long as he didn't show Cursed Immortality, the Chaotic Darkness might be unable to tell his true origin.
If that woman learned who he really was, she wouldn't be chatting with him with that kind of confidence. If it was him, and he found that there was an opponent who was stronger than him and also possessed a Universal Godly Scripture, he would run away without hesitation and not stay there for a chat.
Even though he felt that he was stronger than that woman, he didn't want to test this theory because he knew that woman had not used any of her trump cards, and if he hadn't started chatting, she was also preparing to retreat.
Jacob had no intention of opposing any inheritors of Universal Godly Scripture unless he was ridiculously stronger than them or they had just acquired them. The main reason was, of course, the unpredictable Immortika! Furthermore, Jacob speculated that the woman with Chaotic Darkness might also be after the remaining Cosmic Vestiges. He needs them to progress with Chaotic Darkness as he needs them for Cursed Immortality.
After all, Immortika had told him only the Cosmic Vestiges were worthy of a Universal Godly Scripture, but he didn't know if every scripture had been used for them.
Nonetheless, Jacob wouldn't give up even if he had another competitor. He also had a way to claim back the Cosmic Vestige of Capricorn in that woman's hand, and if he succeeded, he'd use everything he had to quickly gather all the remaining vestiges and get the hell out of this place!
But first, Jacob needed some answers. Once he felt he was far enough and that the woman wasn't chasing after him, he coldly thought, "Cursed Immortality! We have a lot to discuss!"
