After successfully trapping The chanical Duke, Jeremy imdiately chose to demolish the central tower of the chanical town.
As the tower collapsed, the illusory Portal at the top vanished. This ant that even if The chanical Duke could break free from Jeremy's seal, he would be unable to return to his master's divine realm.
"The Portal has been closed. You have no way to leave The Iron Lair instance anymore. So, I suggest you cooperate with from now on."
At this mont, the dynamic between Jeremy and The chanical Duke had completely reversed.
When The chanical Duke held the upper hand, he could naturally exert pressure on Jeremy and coerce him into swearing allegiance to his master.
Now that Jeremy had the upper hand, he could do the sa.
However, Jeremy had no intention of making The chanical Duke his subordinate. He simply wanted to extract as much information as possible from him.
Faced with Jeremy's words, the blue shadow that The chanical Duke had beco offered no response and made no movent.
"I understand you're trying to resist through silence. But do you truly believe this tactic stands any chance of success? I have ways to make you divulge every piece of information you possess."
As he said this, Jeremy once again employed the [The chanical Puppet Technique].
Jeremy manipulated the High-Dinsional Data to extract a portion of The chanical Duke's High-Dinsional Data from within the seal.
As a segnt of the High-Dinsional Data was drawn out, the blue shadow that The chanical Duke had transford into seed to beco fainter than before. The chanical Duke let out a wail of agony.
"It appears that extracting High-Dinsional Data from your body causes you pain. If you refuse to answer my questions, I will continue to pull out the High-Dinsional Data from your form."
Jeremy issued a direct threat.
Confronted with Jeremy's nace, The chanical Duke had no choice but to comply.
"What is it you wish to ask? If I know the answer, I will tell you. However, I must receive a promise from you first."
The chanical Duke was not about to trust Jeremy easily.
The chanical Duke was willing to answer Jeremy's questions, but only on the condition that Jeremy would release him afterward.
Hearing these words, Jeremy's face twisted into a mocking smile.
"Do you really think you're in any position to negotiate with ? I'm holding all the cards right now! If you refuse to answer my questions, I can just keep extracting High-Dinsional Data from you as I did before."
With that statent, Jeremy proceeded to extract another portion of High-Dinsional Data from The chanical Duke's body.
The chanical Duke let out another wail of agony.
This ti, The chanical Duke finally understood Jeremy's resolve. Hastily, he said to Jeremy, "Just ask your questions directly."
Only after receiving this satisfactory response did Jeremy finally stop.
"My first question is: What is your master's true na? I don't believe that 'God of Science' is your master's real na."
Previously, Jeremy had obtained so information about the deities of the apocalypse ga from the [World].
According to the information provided by the [World], the deities in the apocalypse ga all had corresponding abstract designations. 'God of Science' didn't seem like an abstract designation; it pointed to sothing far too specific.
Faced with Jeremy's question, The chanical Duke hesitated slightly.
After a silent pause that lasted several seconds, The chanical Duke slowly responded, "I refer to my master as the God of Science. However, among other races that have received my master's favor, so call the great master 'the White Tower.'"
The mont the term "the White Tower" escaped The chanical Duke's mouth, the expressions on Jeremy and Bonnie's faces grew exceedingly complex.
Jeremy could now be certain that The chanical Duke's master was indeed one of the many deities of the apocalypse ga. Moreover, this deity known as "the White Tower" clearly held a status comparable to that of "the Sun."
The complicated expression on Jeremy's face didn't last long; he quickly regained his composure.
"You previously told that you ca here solely to spread science. Are you truly claiming that your master hasn't tasked you with setting a trap for here?"
Jeremy was not inclined to believe that The chanical Duke's presence here was rely coincidental.
Jeremy was convinced that The chanical Duke's appearance was a deliberate arrangent by "the White Tower."
Moreover, from the abstract aning implied by "the White Tower" and the fact that The chanical Duke refers to it as the God of Science, it is evident that "the White Tower" must represent data and computation on so level.
The notion that such a deity would coincidentally place The chanical Duke here is utterly implausible.
This ti, The chanical Duke's hesitation lasted even longer than before.
Jeremy's patience was rapidly running thin, and he couldn't help but urge, "Why are you not answering my question? You must have co here deliberately to wait for , didn't you?"
Confronted with Jeremy's pressing inquiry, The chanical Duke slowly began to speak.
"I did indeed appear here intentionally. However, the person I was waiting for is not you. I was waiting for another human, similar to you."
The chanical Duke's response left Jeremy deeply puzzled.
Could it be that The chanical Duke's presence here wasn't ant to target him specifically? Was The chanical Duke rely waiting for any powerful awakened individual?
Jeremy found it utterly impossible to believe this explanation.
Without hesitation, Jeremy manipulated the High-Dinsional Data under his control to extract another portion of High-Dinsional Data from The chanical Duke's body.
"I have already answered your question, so why are you still doing this?!" The chanical Duke roared in anger.
Jeremy responded coldly, "You definitely lied just now. The information in your answer simply doesn't add up."
Although the blue shadow that was The chanical Duke lacked facial features, Jeremy could sense that it was glaring at him intensely.
"The Iron Lair instance was not designed for you; it was prepared for the humans favored by my master," The chanical Duke eventually argued.
Jeremy's expression grew sowhat hesitant upon hearing these words.

Compared to the previous response, this answer seed much more credible. Yet, Jeremy still couldn't fully trust what was being said.
"What evidence do you have to prove that The Iron Lair wasn't intended for ? And if The Iron Lair was prepared for other humans, would these humans really pledge allegiance to your master?"
After posing these questions, Jeremy fixed his eyes tightly on The chanical Duke.
The chanical Duke answered Jeremy's question without any hesitation.
"If The Iron Lair instance were prepared for you, do you think I would be waiting for you at the very center of the instance? I would have launched an attack on you the mont you entered the instance."
"And if I knew your power was this imnse, why wouldn't I set up more traps? Do you think I have placed nurous traps in the chanical town?"
The chanical Duke's explanation was indeed flawless.
However, Jeremy wasn't so easily convinced by what was said. He awaited the Duke's response to the last question he had posed.
Jeremy was deeply concerned that so humans might already be planning to pledge allegiance to the deity of the apocalypse ga.
If such a situation were indeed unfolding, Jeremy would need to alert others in advance. The presence of traitors among humanity would cast a dark shadow over the future of all humankind.
"As for the last question you ntioned, I find it utterly aningless. My master wouldn't prepare such an instance for those who haven't already pledged their allegiance to Him."
"In reality, the individual who was supposed to enter this instance has long since pledged their allegiance to my master. They have already beco the agent of my master in your human world."
The chanical Duke's response not only made Jeremy's expression extrely grim.
Behind Jeremy stood Bonnie, Emma, and Claire, all with equally grave expressions. After all, they now knew that there were traitors among humanity.
Upon receiving such a response, Jeremy's mood lifted slightly, no longer as oppressed as before.
Even though the answer provided by The chanical Duke was not good news for Jeremy, it at least spared him from further wild guesses.
After noting all the information, a faint smile appeared on Jeremy's lips.
"Since The Iron Lair instance was prepared for the humans who have already pledged allegiance to your master, it must contain many valuable skill books and equipnt, correct?"
"Where exactly are these skill books and equipnt? You must provide with all the skill books and equipnt in the instance. If you can do that, I will let you go."
Jeremy's words left The chanical Duke utterly astonished. He hadn't expected that Jeremy might actually consider letting him go.
"Would you really do that? How do I know you're not deceiving ?"
Although overjoyed, The chanical Duke suppressed his inner excitent and hastily questioned Jeremy.
Jeremy, unperturbed, responded, "Since you follow the White Tower, you can naturally gain so power from Him. You can use His power to form a contract with ."
