?With scrutiny, Jacob looked at the towering black doom guarded by hundreds of unique rank dark beings.
It was completely sealed off from all sides, and the only way inside was a sealed gate embedded with gray runes, and two cloaked liches were standing guard without moving.
This was quite peculiar since he didn't expect something like this in the middle of this place, and by the looks of it, that place seemed to be quite important to the dark beings.
Just to get here, one had to go through dark beasts and poisonous plants and incents. Even a unique tier-9 might not be able to do it. Only someone like Jacob, with impunity to poison, can reach this place.
Furthermore, despite this place being filled with dark beasts and poisonous insects, that dome was completely untouched, which was quite strange.
Jacob suddenly opened his eyes of judge at this moment before closing them; within that second, he saw a sea of colorful particles and lines on the ground, and that dome was no different.
'So, the area around that dome is also protected with a hidden formation, and anyone who steps on it will be discovered. Since I started experimenting with the eyes of the judge, I can only see color particles and colored lines.
'Those colorful particles should be mana in the air, while the lines only appear when I see runes or magic abilities. However, within those colors and lines, the color gray is particularly more visible. With Autarch's help, I confirmed that the gray color represents openings and flaws within magic abilities and spells. The same goes for runes…'
Despite Immortika's warning, he didn't stop researching the eyes of judge, and the result was also quite satisfactory. According to his multiple experiments, he discovered that the current eyes of judge could see through the flaws in anything and reveal their truth.
Even though he didn't have any proof that he was entirely right, he was quite sure that he wasn't entirely wrong either. Maybe there was a deeper meaning to those color particles, but he had no way of knowing, so all he could do was experiment.
His hard work also bears some fruit, and he discovered the color gray's mystery or at least some part of it.
The color lines only appear when someone uses magic or magic-related abilities and treasures. Runes were no exceptions. Every spell has its own unique line spectrum and there is always a gray color line present in that spectrum. He called it the Color Spectrum of Flaws!
Jacob discovered that if he attacks the gray line, the magic spell always ends up breaking apart. The same goes for runes-related treasures, like talismans, arrays, and formation arrays.
He can stop or destroy those rune treasures as long as his attack has sufficient power behind it. This was a huge discovery, and he knew if he utilized it properly, there was no magic or runes that he couldn't handle. This was just the tip of the abilities that the eyes of judge possess, and according to Immortika, it can see through all lies.
Looking at the dome, Jacob's eyes shimmered with curiosity, 'Since I'm already here, I have to find what lies behind that dome and why there is so much security around it. First, I have to render that formation useless.'
Jacob's eyes averted and looked in the particular direction and opened his eyes to judge for a moment again.
After confirming the gray line position in the color spectrum, a sniper rifle appeared in front of him with a long silencer, and he took aim right at the gray line area and pulled the trigger.
A small shockwave rang, but he was standing at the hill around thirty miles away from the dome, so those dark beings didn't hear anything.
The bullet landed directly right on the gray line spot, and a small murky rune suddenly blinked, and no one noticed it.
Jacob uses his eyes of judge again, and this time, the color spectrum around the dome has completely vanished!
'They didn't notice…' Jacob's lips curled up as he knew he had successfully stopped the formation, but since the formation was an alarm-type stealth formation, unless someone continued to check it, no one would notice it.
Taking full advantage of this gap, Jacob rushed toward the dome and began to assassinate the dark beings one after another by using the Night Hunter Scripture's ability, Hunter's Stealth.
Hunter's Stealth can hide his aura and spirit and put his body under a veil of camouflage, only someone with a powerful optical skill or far stronger aura or spirit then Jacob can notice him.
This ability was extremely useful for assassination and silent infiltration. That's why he learned it first.
While swiftly assassinating the unique rank dark beings, Jacob quickly stowed away their bodies to not draw any attention.
The dome was spread around a hundred miles in diameter, so Jacob quickly made his way around it while getting rid of any dark beings. They were all pale face zombies with strange crimson runic lines on their bodies and their eyes were completely white, and their blood was highly toxic.
Nonetheless, they were quite useful for Jacob's experiments, so he was more than happy to collect their bodies as well.
After assassinating more than 200 zombies, he appeared close to the sealed gate of the dome where two liches were standing.
Without wasting any time, 'Slumber Hex (X2)!'
Since he had already killed every dark being patrolling this dome, he didn't want to mess it up by being greedy and attacking those liches together. If they use some strange method to alarm others, it won't be long before others come running here.
Those liches suddenly begin to fall under his slumber hex, and Jacob directly stabbed his sword in their hearts once after another, killing them within seconds.
Now that no one was in his way, he finally looked at the giant gate, and having no other choice since he couldn't open those space rings, he opened his eyes to judge.
A particular color spectrum appeared in his voice, and without hesitation, a handgun appeared in his hand. He shot at the top left of the gate.
The rune symbol blinked before a creaking voice sounded, and the sealed gate in front of him began to sweep upward.
A pathway inside the doom opened!
