Immortal I Speedrun Supernatural Game

Chapter 240 Soul of Desire

Chapter 240 Soul of Desire
After a long silence.

Wu Wang said again: "How about this, tell me, how many beings are capable of traveling to the real world?"

"Or rather, Lao Da, Lao Da, your power is indeed great, but it still requires too much control. Are there any other simpler beings you can introduce?"

This question finally made [Desire Sea Spirit Lord] breathe a sigh of relief.

Finally a normal question.

He said casually, "At this stage—no."

"Hmm?" Wu Wang was a little confused.

In his opinion, this shouldn't be the answer.

Let’s not talk about anything else, just talk about the venerable one in front of us who controls the authority of [desire].

Can't He travel to the real world at will?
It seemed as if he saw through Wu Wang's doubts.

The Sea of Desire Spiritual Venerable continued, "I mean truly descending into your world. Currently, no one can do that. But if I can only have an impact..."

"Yes, there are ten such beings, including me."

His words were very clever.

This made Wu Wang think carefully about the meaning of it.

That is to say, except for the five great venerables.

There are also five divine messengers.

The most important thing is that He only said "for now".

This means that perhaps in the near future.

These things that are enough to change the world may really become a reality.

Thinking of this, Wu Wang couldn't help but ask:
"Then how can a being like you truly reach reality?"

[Desire Sea Spirit Lord] glanced at this impious believer.

He suddenly wondered whether it was the right decision to keep this guy.

A player whose level is not very high, but whose knowledge is infinitely close to the essence of the [Disaster Game].

Is this kind of existence good or bad?
Finally he sighed.

"I can't give you a direct answer to this question."

"But what I can tell you is—"

"What you mortals call a 'public beta' isn't just a test for you."

"When you can more easily reach the so-called copy world."

"It's not just beings like us. Everything in other worlds can also reach you more easily."

"Please take the [Open Beta] and the natives of other worlds seriously."

As soon as these words came out, Wu Wang suddenly remembered a sentence in his mind -

When you stare into the abyss, the abyss also stares into you.

Current players’ attitude towards dungeons.

Apart from the fact that there is indeed a fear of death.

Most of them are also mixed with the mentality of playing games like playing video games.

There are even quite a few among the players.

I've been suppressed in the real world for a long time.

When entering a simple and easy-to-pass copy.

Or before completing the game and leaving the dungeon world.

They will tear open the ugliest side of human nature and vent their repression in the copy world.

Ordinary killings were child's play compared to what they did.

All kinds of abnormal behaviors that normal people may not be able to imagine are performed in the copy world.

They are so popular that they have to be classified separately in the curiosity section of some websites.

After all, this [Spiritual Disaster Game] is not like real-life games that have censorship restrictions.

Anything you want to do, as long as you have the ability.

They will all try it in the copy world.

"Imagine that you, the descenders, destroy a world beyond recognition, then discard it like trash and leave." The voice of [Desire Sea Spiritual Venerable] turned playful. "One day, the existence of that world has the opportunity to come before you."

"What will they do to you?"

goo-dong-

Wu Wang swallowed his saliva.

He knew with his ass that it would be an absolute disaster.

Peace? That's just an absurd delusion.

If it is really as what [Desire Sea Spirit Lord] said.

Today's players are just like playing with fire in the forest, without even thinking about when they might set the forest on fire and let the wildfire spread to the roof of their own house.

The key is--

【Public Beta】The time is really coming!
Wouldn't that be the end of mankind?
"Don't be too nervous. Everything has a process." [Desire Sea Spiritual Venerable] smiled and said, "It doesn't mean that once the [Open Beta] starts, beings from other worlds will descend upon you. This all requires opportunity and chance. You might not even see them travel to your world in this lifetime."

After teasing, He looked at Wu Wang.

I want to know what the last question is.

However, at this moment, Wu Wang's mouth curled up into a sinister arc.

Then, with a bright smile, he said, "One last question. I haven't thought about it yet. I'll ask you when I have thought about it. We didn't say we had to ask it now."

His idea is simple.

What we know now is enough to digest for a long time.

The first two questions that I really want to know, I currently cannot get answers from [Desire Sea Spirit Lord].

It would be better to wait until I have a more thorough understanding of the [Spiritual Disaster Game] and the existence of these Venerable Gods and Messengers through other channels.

Let me ask for another key piece of information.

Thoughts about Wu's demise.

[Desire Sea Spirit Lord] didn’t say much either.

A being like him would not bother to bargain with a mere mortal on such matters.

It's just a question, you can keep it as long as you want.

I just hope this guy doesn't take his problems with him to his grave.

Think of this.

He waved his hand.

Then the sea of desire on the ground began to surge.

In Wu Wang's surprised eyes.

The sea water condensed into a human-shaped sculpture.

As the sculpture's features become clearer and more familiar.

Wu Wang said with a look of disdain and confusion:

"Boss... do you have any weird fetishes? Why do you want to be my sex doll? You don't want to do anything to me, do you?"

Because the human-shaped sculpture looked exactly like him.

It's as if it were a one-to-one copy, even the sleazy temperament in the eyes and eyebrows is exactly the same.

"You don't even know how many years you've lived, and I'm still just a teenager. This isn't an old cow eating young grass, it's more like a mummy eating spring bamboo shoots."

Listening to Wu Wang's nonsense.

[Spiritual Lord of the Sea of Desire] ignored him.

Just watching this kid go crazy quietly.

After the human-shaped sculpture is completely completed.

He then said, "After all, it's my name, so next time you go to Hope's territory, don't embarrass me."

As soon as the words fell, the human-shaped sculpture suddenly fell into the inky black and filthy sea.

The next second, Wu Wang heard a system prompt:

[Soul of Desire (Unknown): A gift bestowed personally by the being who holds the power of [Desire]]

[Effect 200 (Wine and Meat): The player's experience points increase by 100%, existing attribute points increase by 50%, the effect duration of skills at [Epic] level and below is extended by 50%, and the cost is increased by %]

[Effect 2 (Kakegurui): You can designate a player to enter into a contractual gambling with the user. The stakes must involve both players' lives. The winner will receive the corresponding stake and inherit the gift.]

[Effect 3 (Unraveling the Lie): The user can see through the lie, but you will also tell lies unconsciously]

[Effect 24 (Snake Swallows Elephant): When facing dungeon restrictions, this gift will activate normally, but every hours, the user's soul will sink deeper into the sea of desire until it is completely unable to break free from the shackles of desire.]

A passive skill of unknown level!
Wu Wang's expression turned complicated as he looked at [Desire Sea Spiritual Lord]. Honestly, this skill was very powerful.

Each of the four effects alone would drive other players crazy, and they would point at Wu Wang's nose and curse him for being a cheater.

However, their side effects are also proportional to their effectiveness.

Except for the first one [Wine Pool and Meat Forest], the side effects are slightly acceptable.

All other side effects show the price that comes with the word "desire".

If you want a gamble where you will definitely get your stake if you win, you need to bet your life.

If you want to see through other people's lies, you need to become a liar who speaks without restraint.

If you want to overcome the dungeon limits and win over others at the starting line, you need to run wildly with your soul ignited.

If you don't complete the dungeon fast enough, you'll lose yourself more easily with each passing day.

Especially [Kakegurui] and [Snake Swallows Elephant].

In other words, if Wu Wang uses [Kakegurui] to gamble with others, he will lose.

Then, in addition to his life and other stakes, even this gift will be inherited by the other party.

[Spiritual Lord of the Sea of Desire] essentially lost nothing.

Even if Wu Wang died, the person who inherited this gift would most likely be dragged to the audience space by Him to be PUAed.

In the same way, someone fed the [Tree of Sighs] for Him.

This is actually not bad for Wu Wang.

He didn't think he would lose the bet to anyone.

Of course, the main reason is that he really can't die.

The only side effect you need to pay attention to should be [Snake Swallowing Elephant].

This thing doesn't seem as simple as death.

I'm afraid I've accidentally hit my weak spot—

It will trap Wu Wang, not kill him.

"What do you mean?" Wu Wang asked seriously.

As the saying goes, "If someone shows kindness without any reason, he is either a traitor or a thief."

Although he had said something naughty before about asking for more money.

In fact, I don't expect the other party to give me anything good.

After all, the level of [Desire Sea Spirit Lord] is too high.

At this stage, I am not qualified to negotiate with him.

The conditions in the previous question might have been agreed to just because He had nothing better to do.

Now for the real good stuff.

Instead, Wu Wang began to suspect that [Desire Sea Spirit Lord] had some other plans.

"This is merely the least noteworthy ability among the gifts you received after becoming my spokesperson."

"How about it? Do you want to officially become my spokesperson?"

"After unlocking the full power of the gift of Desire, you can quickly ascend to the pinnacle of mortal existence and thrive in this spiritual calamity."

[Spiritual Lord of the Sea of Desire] changed his previous playful behavior.

Instead, he asked Wu Wang very seriously.

Looking into His gray eyes that were completely emotionless.

Wu Wang shrugged and said, "Sorry, I'm not worthy of it."

"You deserve a better spokesperson. I'm already content to work under you."

"How about I recommend you a few other players, they're all top-notch quality."

Having said that, Wu Wang was even thinking about selling those guys to [Desire Sea Spirit Lord].

However, his refusal was also within the expectations of [Desire Sea Spirit Lord].

But He still couldn't understand it.

Why would someone repeatedly refuse to become a messenger of God or a spokesperson for the Venerable?

This guy had previously rejected the Wheel within a Wheel and the Cherubim.

Now I'm rejecting myself again.

Doesn't he know how powerful the power he can gain by becoming a spokesperson is?

No, he should know very well.

As if seeing the confusion of [Desire Sea Spirit Lord], Wu Wang slowly said:
"In reality, in my world, do you know how many people want a definitive answer?"

"I want a glorious position, I want instant erudition, I want countless money, I want to walk towards my beloved with a golden glow."

“As people live, they only want more and more things, and greed will never be satisfied.”

"But fate often tells these guys that if you act too hastily, you will fail."

“All instant blessings come at a price.”

"I believe that being a spokesperson brings more than just power, right?"

After listening to what Wu Wang said.

[Spiritual Lord of the Sea of Desire] couldn't help but smile.

The entire filthy sea of desire was stirred by His silver bell-like laughter.

Wu Wang's figure on the sea was as small as a lone boat in the face of the raging waves.

But it never sank.

Instead, it remains standing as the sea rises and falls.

"As expected, I still hope you can be my spokesperson."

"Those mediocre people who indulge in [desire] are no match for you."

“Only those who clearly understand their own desires can better control them.”

"You are the most suitable spokesperson for [Desire]."

After saying that, the sea of desire under Wu Wang's feet, which was so filthy that it could not be seen through with the naked eye, began to turn blue.

Gradually, it changed from azure to transparent.

Finally, everything underneath is revealed.

It was a seabed made up of countless sculptures.

Their wails and struggles could even penetrate the sea, allowing Wu Wang on the water to hear the whispers in his ears.

There is no doubt that these are people trapped by [desire].

The sculpture of Wu Wang made by [Desire Sea Spirit Lord] just now is also among them.

The only difference is that his sculpture has not yet sunk to the bottom.

It is floating in the middle of the sea, neither going up nor down.

Wu Wang knew it very well.

When the sculpture sinks to the bottom, my fate will probably not be much different from that of others.

"In recent years, you've been the only endorsement candidate I've considered."

"do not let me down."
