"Just throw him out. We don't need someone like him!" Nixon, who was also observing all this from a screen, coldly spoke at this moment.
Every Easter City level head of three hegemonies was a part of this meeting today, including the permanent member like Nixon.
This problem naturally involved the permanent members like them since they couldn't flee the freedom plains without crossing the dark wildlands and the Star Ocean. Now even the three hegemonies had temporarily cut ties with them which naturally included these permanent members.
Furthermore, Nixon was still upset about Jacob's 'kidnapping'; the biggest culprit was naturally Important Grace34!
Important Grace34 coldly looked at Nixon on the screen and sneered coldly, "If it isn't the biggest fool of our freedom plains!"
How could Important Grace34 not know about the disappearance of Jacob?
But even after they were slender and got hunted by the Nightmare Knight Legion of Easter City, he didn't bother to clear their misunderstanding. Since the killer skull society was still dealing with even more annoying fellows than the freedom plains.
Whenever he thought about Jacob, he could not help but ground his teeth in hatred.
However, now that he got the chance, he didn't mind releasing some frustration on Nixon. He knew better than anyone just where Faceless Ancient came from, and that guy was far more than what meets the eye. He had learned the hard way.
Their current predicament was probably because of him as well, and he hated Jacob's guts, but he won't reveal it since he wanted the freedom plains to suffer at Jacob's hands as well.
Furthermore, after their last blunder, the entire human race vanished from the uncommon region and somehow appeared in the epic region's most prominent power's territory, which was completely out of Important Grace34's imagination.
But he didn't dare to target them anymore since he had guessed that it was doing of Faceless Ancient and he had some powerful background, so he was still observing like a venomous snake.
While in secret, he was still keeping an eye out for the prick because Jacob also had their data on the cannibal research they had been doing in the common plains for decades.
He was sure of it since all the hideouts were burned to the ground, and he knew only Jacob could've done it.
But the Faceless Ancient was simply too mysterious, and his actions were even stranger because if he was really some big shot, why the hell was he still wandering in Freedom Plains and why he even joined the alliance, and how could he if he was from a higher plain?
Or it was just a sham, and Faceless Ancient had nothing to do with the incident with Fire Fiend. Important Grace34 just couldn't figure it out but won't give up until he did.
Important Grace34 only cares about that data right now since that data was far more precious than anyone could understand!
Hearing Important Grace34's belittling voice Nixon emitted killing intent, he was furious about Jacob's disappearance, and they still hadn't even found a clue about the man.
But Elder Light spoke first. There were more pressing matters than some grudge, "If you dare to poke your finger at this conference member. I'll make sure every last member in the skull observation list got executed, and 3rd Freedom Lord will be going to start hunting for you guys personally!"
Important Grace34 eyes shimmered darkly. He knew it was the only chance he could earn some solid ground for Killer Skull Society. So, he had to control his temper.
He coldly said, "Alright, I won't beat around the bush. First, I would like to tell you that we have a base in the Rare Wilderness Plains, very close to the Wild Nation and well hidden.
"Only after we noticed a large army marching toward the dark wildlands did I notice what was going on, and after digging around, here we are."
The others were astonished by this revelation.
"So, you're saying you have a safe way out of dark ruins?" Elder Light voice was filled with hidden shock.
They knew just how deeply the dark beings were guarding the dark ruins and the other side entrance of it. They were waiting for the grace period to end so they could storm the dark ruins without any challenge at all.
But they were also preparing for it. However, that darn shackle was broken by someone, and now they were cough off guard.
Even after all these years, they only had a single base on the other side, and it was nowhere near the wild nation because they were afraid of getting discovered by dark beings.
Yet, the Killer Skull Society also seemed to have members on the other side, which was quite shocking. They had always belittled the Killer Skull Society, but it seemed they were far more formidable.
However, it was also their fault since they only paid attention to the three hegemonies and belittled the killer skull society, who hid behind the blinding splendor of the three hegemonies.
Important Grace34 chuckled, "Of course, so this is my first piece of the negotiation. We will provide information about the armies of dark beings.
"Second, I'm willing to send skull number A-501 to A-1000 in the dark ruins with your army and with all of them being at least Basic Mages and 1000 skulls above A-5000 ranks!
"Third, the Killer Skull Society will also share an ancient potion formula that can make anyone at Common-Tier-12 break into Rare-Tier-1 without any side effects!"
Another deadly silence descended in the hall as everyone looked at Important Grace34 with slack jaws.
A goblin woman coldly uttered at this moment, "Important Grace34, do you think no one in this room knows Potion Alchemy? There is no such a potion without side effects, especially the one that can make a common being rare!"
Everyone agreed with this goblin woman.
Important Grace34 coolly replied, "I know it's hard to believe, but it is true. I'll send a sample to you, Senior Grandmaster Chaya. You can examine the effect yourself."
Elder Light replied, "Very well, if you have such a potion and it has no side effect after Senior Grandmaster Chaya test it, we won't mistreat you. But what do you want?"
Important Grace34 eyes turned sharp as he demanded, "Nothing much, make me the 5th Freedom Lord of the Skull Kingdom, which will be the new fifth power of the freedom plains!"
Elder Light instantly rejected it sternly, "Impossible, ask for something else!"
Important Grace34 shook his head, "Nothing else interests me. You guys can discuss it with Four Freedom Lords, and I want an official announcement and shares registered with the Star Network so you guys won't play any tricks later. I'll also reveal the formula of this potion after getting the promised rewards. I'll send the sample to Light Nation today.
"Lastly, I would like to warn you guys that make your decision quickly. The Lich King is bringing 50,000 Dark Beings into the Dark Ruins, and fighting is the only shot freedom plains have to remain free, or I can always go to hiding, but can you? Hahahah… Contact me with your answer. I'll give you a week before the offer is off the table!"
Important Grace34 instantly cut off the connection.
The room descent into gloomy silence as no one wanted to speak. They were completely caught off guard by Important Grace34 this time, and this would never have happened if the three hegemonies hadn't abandoned them.
At this moment, an aged voice rang into the room filled with helplessness,
"Test the potion and try to reverse-engineer the formula. Don't disappoint us. This is a matter of survival for every living being in the freedom plains. We'll give our verdict after getting the result. You have six days!"

Meanwhile, in the Dark Ruins.
It's been the third day since Jacob had cleared one of the three conditions of the Dark Ruins' trial.
At this moment, The Dark Beings were literally swarming the place like an ant colony as every alley was patrolled by at least ten or even fifty dark beings together.
The buildings were being searched by skeleton warriors and zombies with faint marks around their necks.
It was quite clear they wanted to clear the entire place out of any living.
Jacob, who had been hunting zombies for the last two days, also noticed this strange change, and they gave him a foreboding feeling.
Furthermore, he noticed that around this ruined city's central area, high-level dark beings were teeming that place, and it was almost impossible to enter it.
Moreover, there was some kind of barrier at the very edge of the city, which made it quite apparent that leaving this place was impossible unless someone had a passage like the dark beings.
Not only that, but he was also closely observing the dark ruins for any clues about anything related to royalty or a king. He noticed that the closer he was to the central area, the larger and more intact buildings appeared!
