I Have a Sailing Game-Chapter 340 - 222: Incarnation of Will, Eternal Burning Furnace (2-in-1)
[That’s not something you should be asking.]
[Know your place; you’re just a captive.]
Rogel replied indifferently.
Then, he began to contemplate his next line of communication strategy internally.
How should he skillfully extract more information from this guy without exposing himself...
Looking at the silent Rogel.
The mysterious figure couldn’t help but let its thoughts wander.
It had tried it just earlier, and yet the [restrictions] truly disappeared.
Considering its own roots, the [restrictions] were practically a part of its existence!
So, what kind of being could peel it away from such [restrictions]?
Could it be...
A thought involuntarily popped into its mind, and even the slightest consideration of it made it tremble.
Then it calmed down again and began to ponder its situation.
If it could entirely lose the [restrictions], it would mean becoming a complete life form in essence.
It was exactly what it had always dreamed of.
Perhaps this person in front of it... could make it happen.
If that’s the case, why should it care about Him anymore?
With this thought, the mysterious figure bit its lip and completely changed its attitude, its tone becoming humble.
[You’re right, Great Being.]
[I’m merely a captive.]
[If there’s anything you’re keen to know, please feel free to ask; I shall not hold back any information.]
"..."
In front of the screen, Rogel was pondering how to phrase his next question.
But he didn’t anticipate that such a string of messages would suddenly appear over this guy’s head.
This left Rogel somewhat surprised.
Yet shortly after, he raised an eyebrow and felt amused in his heart.
"Did this fool just imagine something himself?"
Rogel couldn’t help but chuckle to himself.
He was just taking a gamble, without much hope, but to his surprise, he actually bluffed this guy.
But bluffing him was just the beginning; Rogel still had to think about what to ask next.
After all, if the other party sees you as a godlike entity, you can’t possibly ask some dumb questions, right?
But it seems Rogel doesn’t have to worry anymore.
This guy seems to have already overthought and effectively strategized himself.
With this, he can be much more relaxed, ah!
[Oh?]
[Then go ahead and speak.]
Rogel’s game character, still under his control, maintained a calm and inscrutable expression.
Upon hearing his words,
the mysterious figure in the prison was overjoyed.
It seemed that it did hold some value for this existent in front of it.
Otherwise, he wouldn’t trouble himself to confine it, right?
Yet... what does he want to know?
This puzzled the mysterious figure.
After contemplating for a moment, it bit its lip.
[You should know, I’m merely a conceptual embodiment, with limited knowledge.]
[My master...]
It cautiously uttered two words, confirmed there was no unusual occurrence, exhaled a sigh of relief, and continued.
[My master Eternal Burning Furnace, true name Selomelek.]
[He sent me to observe the demigod embers’ whereabouts in the Lava Rock Prison; if necessary, to possess those who steal them...]
After speaking, it carefully watched Rogel’s expression.
However, it was impossible to discern anything from Rogel’s game character’s face.
Whereas, in front of the monitor, Rogel wore a thoughtful and serious expression.
He wasn’t mistaken about this guy.
It truly was an existence akin to an "embodiment."
Surprisingly, however, from its words, it seemed it might just be a "conceptual thought."
A single thought could form such a human-like presence...
Eternal Burning Furnace—Selomelek... It seemed this guy was the instigator.
...These [divine entities] are indeed sinister and terrifying; if not for the [game], Rogel estimated he might have been manipulated unknowingly.
The Lava Rock Prison and [Eternal Burning Furnace] are inextricably linked.
[Oh? And now it’s called Eternal Burning Furnace?]
[Impressive...]
Rogel’s game character continued to speak calmly with nonsense.
Since this guy admitted to being merely a conceptual thought, he could embolden himself to deepen his pretentious guise’s aura.
Sure enough, the effect was extraordinary.
The mysterious figure across was startled upon hearing Rogel’s words.
Now called Eternal Burning Furnace? Impressive?
Hiss...
This tone was completely like those ancient beings lamenting their successors!
Could it be that he existed even longer than the Eternal Burning Furnace that created him?
Damn it, what kind of being is standing before me!
The mysterious figure’s scalp tingled.
Considering Rogel could completely obscure "restrictions" with his ability, it had no doubts regarding his words.
Thus, it involuntarily became even more respectful. 𝕗𝐫𝐞𝕖𝕨𝐞𝗯𝚗𝕠𝘃𝐞𝚕.𝐜𝗼𝚖
[Yes, my master is called Eternal Burning Furnace, ruling over the domain of destruction and creation.]
It humbly acknowledged.
Rogel felt stirred at heart.
Mastering [destruction and creation]... Great, he squeezed out another vital piece of information.
The situation is now clear.
Firstly, the demigod embers in the Lava Rock Prison are likely significantly related to Him.
Hence, when he acquired the demigod embers, the god of [destruction and creation]—Eternal Burning Furnace cast his gaze upon him.
Yet due to the game’s uniqueness, this conceptual embodiment was directly confined...
Upon understanding the cause and effect.
Rogel still felt a bit troubled.
Being targeted by a [divine entity] is no trivial matter.
This guy in front is only His conceptual thought, who knows if He has other tricks?
The mysterious realm truly is dangerous...
While Rogel contemplated.
The mysterious figure in the prison, seemingly wishing to perform, spoke again.
[Eternal Burning Furnace is now slumbering; perhaps you can seize this opportunity...]
It humbly and boldly proposed.
Of course, it had its own ulterior motives.
If this entity in front could induce a divine war against [Eternal Burning Furnace] and cause His fall, then it would entirely sever its ties with Him.
Of course, it also faced the possibility of dissipating.
But this could be its offering of loyalty, demonstrating sincerity.
Upon hearing this, Rogel glanced at him.
Seeing his gaze, the mysterious figure immediately dared not speak further, fearing it had angered this being before him.
However, Rogel thought differently.
"Slumbering? Slumbering is good, that should mean he wouldn’t always keep an eye on me..."
Rogel breathed a sigh of relief.
If a [divine entity] expressly intended harm, even with the game’s protection, he would likely struggle.
Needless to say, about this guy in front.
If Eternal Burning Furnace continuously dispatched "thoughts" down, wouldn’t he often have the game pop out like before?
Therefore, Rogel wouldn’t gloat just because he bluffed this guy.
He knew very well, fundamentally, he was just a small Apostle, not even a full Deputy.
After pondering for a while, Rogel found himself temporarily out of questions.
He wanted to enter the game again to confirm his continuity.
If [Eternal Burning Furnace] really kept an eye on him, it would be troublesome.
Thinking up to here, Rogel said not a word, directly withdrew from the prison, leaving the mysterious figure alone in the prison.
After waiting on the main screen for a moment, Rogel took a deep breath and clicked [Continue Game].
Upon returning to the familiar place once more,
Rogel vigilantly scanned around, then quickly placed the [Demigod Embers] into his Item Inventory.
After waiting quietly for a moment, no disturbances occurred.
This caused Rogel to breathe a sigh of relief.
It seemed Eternal Burning Furnace currently had no energy to monitor him.
However, the subsequent information prompt made his heart hang in suspense.
[You have gained knowledge exceeding your current Tier’s secrets.]
[You may keep it, but there’s a likelihood of being observed and corrupted.]
[You may also choose to temporarily store it, and awaken it as needed.]
[Yes/No]
