Chapter 740 -425 Uh, I Seem to Have Control_1

“Why are there imprints required in the House of the Deceased?” On their way, Negris asked in confusion.

“Well, of course, it’s necessary. Otherwise, anyone could connect, and it’d be in total chaos, right? To obtain an imprint, you need a Teleportation Array and a Soul Communication Fire. With the Soul Communication Fire, you can connect to the Soul Network of the House of the Deceased and trade directly through the Teleportation Array…”

At this point, Durken had an odd expression on his face as he started to cough.

“What’s up? Did I say something wrong? You are a witch, why are you pretending to cough?” Roxy said irritably.

Durken replied with a strange look, “I was thinking about something else. It’s none of your business.”

“Oh, then I will continue. Without the imprint, the House of the Deceased wouldn’t know which teleportation beacon is yours. What if they teleport the wrong one? Processing these things is very complicated, as you guys know, the work efficiency of those Death Spirits is extremely low. They always say: You’re already dead, why are you in a hurry? So annoying.”

...

It seemed that Roxy was quite annoyed when she asked for her imprint. Now that she found the opportunity, she started to rant about it.

Durken nodded in understanding. Not only the Undead here, but the Undead in all planes are the same. Efficiency cannot be expected from them because time means nothing to them.

The most efficient among the Undead are those mindless skeleton zombies, tirelessly toiling without complaints.

After a few twists and turns, they finally reached the spot where Roxy kept her Soul Communication Fire. The room was empty save for a small Teleportation Array with a diameter of one meter in the centre and an altar in the corner where a small flame burnt.

“Eh, is this the Soul Communication Fire? Isn’t this just Undead Fire? But isn’t it really small?” Negris questioned after a quick glance.

Before Roxy could explain, Durken replied, “Yes, it’s Undead Fire, a sender of thoughts, no need to be too strong. The Undead Fire for receiving thoughts needs to be strong.”

“Receiving thoughts? You mean use the Undead Fire to receive thoughts and then transmit them to a different place?” Negris asked.

Before Roxy could answer, Durken said, “Yes, it’s actually the simplification of Soul Network – a powerful spiritual body with countless small Soul Communication Fires form a Soul Network. Anyone can tap into this Soul Network via a Soul Communication Fire and communicate with another soul in the network.”

“A relay tower?” Negris suddenly thought of something that matched Durken’s description.

Roxy didn’t intend to answer this time; she only opened her eyes to listen. Why couldn’t she understand more and more of what they said?

“Are you referring to the relay towers in the Land of Fallen? Although I have never seen them, they should be the same. The Great Sage couldn’t possibly build something I don’t understand. They are made of powerful spiritual bodies, and they do not have these small Soul Communication Fires. Their Soul Network is linear, not a net like this.”

“Let’s just call those powerful spiritual bodies Relay Spirits. The Relay Spirits and the Soul Communication Fire form a network, but they originally have no wisdom, so when you connect to them, you need an imprint. Only by this, others can obtain some information about you.”

“The information is kept by those who manage the Relay Spirits. That means, those people with whom you communicate and trade can’t know your identity and location and therefore can’t beat you up through the Teleportation Array. This greatly improves security.” Durken explained.

After Durken’s explanation, not only did Negris understand, but Roxy also became enlightened, “So it’s for security. I was wondering why we needed an imprint. I even worried that my identity would be exposed, or someone would come to rob me via the Teleportation Array. That’s why I only dared to set up a small Teleportation Array, which can’t even teleport larger things.”

Negris didn’t even want to burst her bubble: “Did you build such a small Teleportation Array because you were worried someone would teleport over to rob you? Or was it because you were too poor to build a bigger one?”

“Poor…” Roxy admitted painfully while being hit where it hurts.

“The security guarantee is only secondary. It’s more important for ensuring transactions. Relay Spirits are actually your guarantors for the transactions. Each time you trade, you give your goods and money to the Relay Spirits for them to exchange.” Durken said.

Negris had already noticed something was off. At this moment, Roxy also realized and couldn’t help herself but asked, “Why are you so familiar with it? Didn’t you say you haven’t been to the House of the Deceased? You don’t have an imprint, do you?”

Durken shrugged and said, “What if I say, I designed the entire system, would you believe me?”

Negris was the first one to disbelieve, “I don’t believe it. If you had such a useful trading system, wouldn’t you have built one in the Resting Abyss already?”

Durken answered, “It involves a new Soul Network. I could only ‘design’ the system, not ‘build’ it. Only His Majesty could build it. Do you understand?”

Negris understood after Durken explained. It was similar to when Nage suggested multiple ideas to Ange, but would never cross the line to make decisions.

Roxy heard everything they said and couldn’t help but ask hesitantly, “Are you talking about His Majesty who is attacking the Starburst Array now?” She pointed upwards as she spoke.

After confirming it was the same person, Roxy felt as if her legs were jelly. My gosh, she was just a small town mayor in a remote village, yet she got intertwined with someone related to the king. His connection was really too strong.

After saying so much, Durken was actually a little impatient. This system was not established in Resting Abyss because of His Majesty’s reason. He didn’t expect to see it completed here.

Walking up to where the Soul Communication Fire was, Durken felt the altar and turned to Ange, “Sir, the Soul Communication Fire is too weak. It may need some replenishment.”

Ange nodded, grabbed a handful of Soul Crystal, and after refining, poured it all into the Soul Communication Fire. The small flame of the Soul Communication Fire suddenly turned into a half-meter high pillar of fire, lighting up the entire room in blue.

Durken stared at Roxy again, “The Soul Communication Fire needs soul energy for sustenance. You must be reluctant to feed it energy normally.”

Roxy looked at Durken and then at Ange, especially at the Soul Crystal in his hand. The pain was clear on her face, “I’m a weak witch; it’s already quite good that I didn’t let it extinguish. How else am I gonna feed it? Isn’t it better to keep the Soul Crystal?”

Durken ignored her, immersed in operating the Array and the Soul Communication Fire on the altar.

He skillfully manipulated the Array and the Soul Communication Fire on the altar, withdrawing and reinserting his thoughts repeatedly. He suddenly lifted his head after a while and said:

“Oh, it seems that His Majesty has copied my design. Even the control of imprints is exactly the same. I seem to have control over the entire Soul Network.”
