End of Days Game: I'm the Only One Who Can See the Hidden Cues

Chapter 148: Obtaining All Rewards from the Instance

Regarding the deal proposed by Jeremy, it was evident that The Mechanical Duke was extremely interested.

If The Mechanical Duke could indeed successfully harness the power possessed by the White Tower, then he naturally could establish a contract with Jeremy that would be utterly unbreakable.

Jeremy also observed that The Mechanical Duke was very intrigued by the deal he had put forward, so he proceeded to elaborate.

"I am not sure how important you are to your master, thus I am uncertain whether you are capable of wielding your master's power."

The reason Jeremy made this statement was to employ a tactic of provocation, hoping to compel The Mechanical Duke into agreeing to the deal.

Jeremy's strategy indeed met with success.

After hearing Jeremy's words, The Mechanical Duke responded angrily.

"Of course, I am extremely important to my master! I am the executor of my master's will! My master would never abandon me! I am absolutely capable of receiving my master's power!"

By making this declaration, The Mechanical Duke effectively agreed to the deal with Jeremy.

"In that case, let's not waste any more time. Go ahead and harness your master's power to form an unbreakable contract with me!"

After saying this, Jeremy took a few steps back.

Simultaneously, Jeremy signaled Bonnie and the others to also step back a few paces.

Upon seeing Jeremy's actions, The Mechanical Duke seemed to realize that Jeremy had a certain level of understanding about his master.

Thus, The Mechanical Duke directly questioned Jeremy: "Do you truly not know the extent of my master's immense power? Were the things you said earlier deliberate falsehoods?

Are you not at all concerned that I might use my master's power to obliterate you within the instance of The Iron Lair?"

Faced with The Mechanical Duke's inquiry, a slight smile appeared at the corner of Jeremy's mouth.

"If the White Tower could so easily bestow its power upon you, I would have perished in the instance of The Iron Lair long ago. You wouldn't be in such an awkward predicament now."

With just one sentence, Jeremy effortlessly dismantled The Mechanical Duke's probing.

The Mechanical Duke couldn't help but nod: "You are indeed much smarter than I initially thought. Since that's the case, I won't waste any more words with you. If you don't want to be affected by my master's power, you better step back even further."

Jeremy believed in the words of The Mechanical Duke.

He promptly led Bonnie and the others to retreat to a greater distance.

At this moment, Bonnie, slightly anxious, reminded him, "We're now so far from The Mechanical Duke, won't he take this opportunity to escape our control?"

Jeremy shook his head: "He can't possibly do that because I've already sealed the illusory Portal at the top of the tower. Even if he manages to break through the barriers we've set up, he still has no way of returning to the world of the White Tower."

Jeremy's words temporarily put Bonnie at ease.

Subsequently, Bonnie, along with the others, kept a close watch on The Mechanical Duke's actions.

Once Jeremy and his group had retreated to a sufficiently safe distance, The Mechanical Duke began to dismantle all the High-Dimensional Data he possessed. This High-Dimensional Data formed a structure resembling a spider web.

At this moment, Jeremy could see that within the web-like structure woven from High-Dimensional Data, some new data streams seemed to be emerging. These data streams appeared to be able to establish a connection with the illusory Portal at the top of the central tower in the mechanical town.

As the number of data streams within the web-like structure of High-Dimensional Data continued to increase, Jeremy suddenly felt that all the machinery in the mechanical town seemed to come to life at that very instant.

Jeremy's ears were suddenly filled with a low, menacing growl.

Under the influence of this low growl, Jeremy experienced a severe headache once again.

Previously, when Jeremy had such intense headaches, Bonnie, Emma, and Claire would always find ways to alleviate his pain. However, this time, Bonnie, Emma, and Claire had no strength left to help him.

Bonnie and the others were also experiencing severe headaches.

Despite the excruciating pain, Jeremy directed his gaze toward the web-like structure woven from High-Dimensional Data.

At that moment, Jeremy saw an illusory tower composed of numerous High-Dimensional Data strands, and this illusory tower was pure white in color.

The instant Jeremy saw the pure white illusory tower, he thought of the White Tower.

"Could it be that The Mechanical Duke is not currently channeling the power of the White Tower? Could it be that The Mechanical Duke's current actions are an attempt to invoke the descent of the White Tower within the mechanical lair instance?"

Having gone through a series of previous troubles, Jeremy was extremely vigilant.

Jeremy felt an overwhelming need to prepare for the worst possible scenario.

The worst-case scenario he could foresee was The Mechanical Duke successfully summoning the essence of the White Tower into the mechanical lair instance.

The moment this possibility crossed his mind, Jeremy shouted toward the web-like structure that The Mechanical Duke had become.

"What exactly are you doing right now?! Stop immediately!"

As soon as Jeremy shouted, the web-like structure formed by The Mechanical Duke quickly dissipated. The High-Dimensional Data that constituted The Mechanical Duke reconverged, and his illusory figure appeared before Jeremy.

With The Mechanical Duke's reappearance, the intense headache Jeremy felt rapidly subsided. Bonnie and the others also quickly found relief from their severe headaches.

Angrily, Jeremy employed the Mechanical Puppet Technique. He directed a significant amount of High-Dimensional Data towards The Mechanical Duke's essence.

Facing Jeremy's attack, The Mechanical Duke hurriedly exclaimed.

"All my actions were solely to channel my master's power. I have now successfully channeled my master's power and established the contract we are to fulfill."

With The Mechanical Duke's words, an illusory contract materialized before Jeremy.

The contract was laden with clauses written in a script completely foreign to Jeremy.

At this moment, Jeremy had already retracted all of the High-Dimensional Data.

Gazing intently at the illusory contract for a while, he slowly asked The Mechanical Duke.

"I can't understand a single word written on this contract. How am I supposed to know if its contents match what we previously agreed upon?"

Without any hesitation, The Mechanical Duke divulged the method to decipher the contract's contents.

"You don't need to understand the script on the contract. In fact, I can't read it either. These characters belong to the language of deities, comprehensible only to true deities. your-chapter-source-MvLeMpYr

What you need to do now is to use High-Dimensional Data to parse the contract's contents. As soon as High-Dimensional Data interacts with the contract, its contents will naturally manifest in your mind."

Without a moment's hesitation, Jeremy followed The Mechanical Duke's instructions.

The instant the High-Dimensional Data manipulated by Jeremy touched the illusory contract, its contents immediately formed in his mind.

The contract's contents were exactly the terms Jeremy and The Mechanical Duke had agreed upon.

"Now you should be able to trust what I've said, right? If there are no further questions, let's finalize the contract quickly! I will promptly help you locate all the rewards within the instance, and afterward, you must allow me to leave."

After a moment of contemplation, Jeremy nodded.

"Alright then, I'll go ahead and finalize the contract with you right now!"

Jeremy and The Mechanical Duke simultaneously imprinted their spiritual marks onto the illusory contract. In that instant, the contract split into two parts, each encircling Jeremy and The Mechanical Duke respectively.

"If either of us violates the contract, it will immediately kill us!" The Mechanical Duke reminded Jeremy.

Jeremy nodded in agreement and proceeded to lift the seal placed on The Mechanical Duke. Bonnie also lifted the seal on The Mechanical Duke simultaneously.

Once the seals were removed, The Mechanical Duke moved directly to the high tower at the center of the mechanical town.

The Mechanical Duke spread the High-Dimensional Data that composed him around the town's central tower, and in that moment, all the information within the mechanical lair instance was displayed before Jeremy and the others.

"The white light points you see now are the rewards within the mechanical lair instance. I will retrieve these rewards as swiftly as possible."

With those words, The Mechanical Duke transformed into countless blue beams of light, darting off in various directions within the mechanical lair instance.

In just a few minutes, The Mechanical Duke returned, laden with a multitude of rewards.

"I have fulfilled all the obligations stipulated in the contract. Now it's your turn to uphold your end of the agreement!"

Jeremy looked at the myriad rewards before him, a slight smile appearing on his face.

"Of course, I will uphold the terms of the contract!"

Jeremy manipulated the High-Dimensional Data to extract the data core lodged in the illusory Portal.

The moment the data core was removed from the illusory Portal, the Portal was reactivated.

"You can now leave The Iron Lair instance and return to your master's divine realm!" Jeremy said this with a smile on his face. "Before you go, there's one message I'd like you to deliver to your master."

The Mechanical Duke did not leave immediately, curious about what Jeremy wanted to convey to his master.

With a smile still on his face, Jeremy spoke calmly, "Tell Him to be prepared, I will be coming for Him soon!"
