Game of Thrones: I Created the Magic Web

Chapter 239 The Secrets of the Kraken

The fleet set sail back to Oakenshield.

The kraken Kraken clung to the stern of the "God's Grace", quietly following along, still attracting curious onlookers from the entire ship.

The kraken was oblivious to the little people around it.

It was busy dealing with its new master's questioning. Whether out of contractual oath or awe of its new master's power, it couldn't remain silent.

"Where were you active before? Or rather, where were you sleeping?" Joffrey asked.

He knew he would get the correct answer.

Without His interference, Joffrey had regained control of the kraken's information rune mirror image, and with the constraint of the contract, it couldn't lie.

The kraken Kraken answered, "The Jade Sea to the east."

Joffrey couldn't help but be surprised.

Too far. At least twenty thousand miles from here.

According to the speculation about His identity, the kraken's habitat shouldn't be there.

Did I guess wrong?

His words pointed very clearly. "Drowned Beast", "Storm Demon", obviously referring to the Drowned God and Storm God of the Iron Islands. Or is this just His misdirection?

But in the previous contact, His various performances proved the connection with Westeros. Could this also be a misunderstanding?

And also during the negotiations and oaths.

Although He didn't explicitly state His identity, He didn't deliberately conceal it either, obviously acquiescing to the judgment of His identity. This shouldn't be false.

Joffrey then questioned, "Have you always been there? Why didn't you stay by His side?"

"It's more comfortable to sleep there," the kraken Kraken said truthfully, "As for sleeping here, that was a long, long time ago."

"How long ago?" Joffrey pressed.

The kraken thought for a long while before saying, "Once, the Long Night lasted for many years, the sea became colder and colder, there was no sun, and there was nothing to eat in the shallow waters, and there were no ships, only the deep sea."

"The 'Long Night' eight thousand years ago," Joffrey understood the kraken's description.

The Wall was built during that tragic and famous Long Night. The prophesied hero Azor Ahai was also born during this Long Night.

"Yes, that's right," the kraken continued, "After that, a few hundred years passed, and the sea here became more and more uncomfortable, the spiritual power gradually thinning. The east was slightly better, so I went there."

Joffrey understood that the spiritual power it spoke of was source energy. So the decline of the magical environment began seven or eight thousand years ago.

"When did you start only being able to sleep?"

Joffrey was very interested. This might be the key turning point for the withdrawal of krakens and other mythical creatures.

The kraken Kraken replied, "The last time I hunted, I heard someone say that the Valyrian Peninsula was destroyed, and the volcano erupted."

Four or five hundred years ago… Joffrey pondered. Earlier than the extinction of the dragons.

"What about Him?"

"What?" The kraken Kraken seemed not to understand.

Joffrey chuckled, "Your old master, when did He start resting like you? Still don't understand?"

"Understood, understood," the kraken Kraken nodded quickly.

"When the golden-haired Andals came to this continent, the master began to get tired. After the brown-skinned Rhoynar came, the master never saw me in person again. Later, I stayed in the east," the kraken's answer was even more detailed than Joffrey's question.

If the historical records aren't too absurd, then the time points the kraken spoke of are about five thousand years ago and one thousand years ago respectively.

Joffrey waited quietly for a while. The oath didn't react.

That is to say, this doesn't count as important information that needs to be kept secret according to the agreement. Indeed, those at the kraken's level can know these things, so there's naturally no need for excessive secrecy.

And even knowing these things is just satisfying some curiosity, with almost no improvement to the current situation.

But he still had many other questions.

Joffrey asked lightly, "Tell me, my allies, your old master, who are His friends and enemies?"

If there is one Him, there will never be only one Him in the world.

The kraken was very silent.

"Huh?" Joffrey questioned coldly, "Don't tell me you don't know anything!"

"I really can't say," the kraken sighed and complained, "Master, you should know that the world protects Them, I am just a kraken, even if I risk my life, I really can't leak any information!"

Where would I know? Joffrey shook his head, "Then I'll ask questions, you just need to answer 'yes' or 'no'."

The kraken still refused, "This method can't avoid it. As long as I know in my heart that what I'm saying is true, then it will be forbidden! Master, please ask something else!"

Joffrey frowned, recalling the questions just now.

The kraken took the initiative to add, "When I mentioned the old master just now, He knew it. You and the master are allies, other beings wouldn't want that."

Having said that, Joffrey couldn't insist anymore.

He couldn't kill the kraken, could he? It still holds the method to break through the upper limit of runes.

In any case, strengthening oneself is the key.

Joffrey then took a step back, "Then can you tell me about those below Them, what levels are there?"

The kraken breathed a sigh of relief and immediately replied, "Demigods haven't been favored by the world yet, mortals can still talk about them at will without restriction. Further down are Supreme Heroes and Great Heroes."

"I have killed two Great Heroes," the kraken said proudly, "One of them's power was fire, and the other's was earth. There are countless heroes of the first step."

"Of course," the kraken flattered Joffrey, "Master, you are different. Although you are only an initial hero, you have unlimited potential, favored by so many powers, you are definitely not comparable to ordinary people!"

Joffrey pondered silently.

Hero, Great Hero, Supreme Hero, Demigod, and then God, only five levels?

Or rather.

Are there as many as four or more upgrade versions of runes?

Has the magical development of this world become so systematic? Why didn't I ever know before?! Where are these people?

Joffrey continued to ask, "Because the spiritual power is thin and declining, you completely fell asleep four or five hundred years ago. So, is there enough spiritual power for you to move now? When did you wake up?"

The kraken honestly replied, "The master woke me up half a year ago. There isn't enough spiritual power yet, but relying on the saved spirit crystals, I can last for another year or two."

"It should be about the same then."

Spirit crystals? Joffrey threw a gem storing source energy, tossing it towards the kraken at the stern.

The kraken quickly stretched out a tentacle to catch the gem.

"How long will this spirit crystal last you?" Joffrey asked.

The kraken sent the gem into its mouth, "Thank you for the master's reward! A very pure spirit crystal, enough for my ten days of consumption."

Joffrey nodded. Finally got an accurate data.

Similarly, this also means that other higher life forms can also continue to survive in this way and gradually recover.

Time is running out. Three or five years, ten or eight years, at least become a demigod!

"Theon Greyjoy has already obtained the Hero's Proof of seawater," Joffrey walked towards the kraken, "The first one. According to the oath, I demand the first part of the advancement knowledge."

A total of six parts, two levels, He requires one hundred thousand heroes.

The kraken stretched out a tentacle.

The soul wrapped in encrypted information stretched towards Joffrey…
