God Simulator: The Goddesses In The Simulation Are All Real

Chapter 130: Rule-Type Artifact - Bottled Anger

Linsley's Real Fantasy gift flared, and in that instant, the chaotic ocean froze. The whirlpools stopped swirling, suspended in mid-motion, as if time itself had been paused.

Ted and Lucy stood back, watching the display with a mix of awe and anticipation.

"I've fought stronger opponents than you," Linsley continued, his tone casual yet menacing. "So before you get any more ideas of grandeur, know this—you've already lost."

The Devouring Whale Overlord roared in anger, its massive mouth opening wide as it began to devour the flux that Linsley had used to control the surroundings.

The once-still ocean stirred once more, and the whale regained its control over the waters, the tides now obeying its will.

Linsley smirked, mockingly acknowledging the whale's display of power. "Impressive, but still not enough."

He glanced at Lucy and nodded. "Even if I disdain this huge whale, it's still a higher level than me. So let's use the Bottled Anger."

Lucy nodded and her eyes darkened as dark-colored flux swirled around her.

With a focused breath, she released a wave of dark flux that rippled through the air, spreading toward the Devouring Whale Overlord.

The moment the dark wave hit the creature, the whale felt its anger swell uncontrollably, a primal rage surging through its entire being as if ready to explode.

With everything in place, Linsley summoned his imagination. His thoughts shifted to a fantasy—a bottle capable of sealing anger itself. Slowly, reality bent to his will, and before him appeared a large sealing bottle, a rule-type artifact that could imprison wrathful beings.

The Devouring Whale Overlord, despite its size and power, felt the pressure of the artifact's influence. It thrashed violently, but the anger within it—amplified by Lucy's flux—became its downfall.

The sealing bottle grew larger, shimmering with otherworldly power as it sucked in not just the ocean's rage, but the whale itself.

Linsley's smirk deepened as the colossal beast was drawn into the bottle, its roars echoing as it was slowly and inevitably sealed away.

"The conditions are met," Linsley muttered, watching the bottle's cork twist shut with a satisfying snap.

In his right hand, he held the sealing bottle, gazing at the miniature Devouring Whale Overlord trapped inside. The once-mighty creature, now shrunken and confined, thrashed weakly within its prison.

Linsley's eyes gleamed with cold amusement, regarding the creature as if it were a mere spectacle in a zoo.

The Devouring Whale Overlord, sensing the humiliation, felt its pride crumble. But being sealed in the Bottled Anger artifact had forcefully subdued its fury, leaving it powerless to feel the rage that would normally consume it.

With its anger subdued, the Devouring Whale Overlord's voice echoed from within the bottle. "What do you want, human? I rarely kill humans unless they step into my territory, so I shouldn't have offended you or your relatives."

As the exchange unfolded, the waters of the Devouring Whale Ocean began to stir.

Countless whales surfaced, their massive bodies casting shadows over the churning sea. They surrounded Linsley, Lucy, and Ted, their eyes glowing with hostility.

The sight of their clan leader being held captive filled them with a deep anger, but they knew they could do nothing. Attacking would risk the life of their overlord, so they could only circle the trio, watching with bated breath.

Linsley smirked, his gaze flicking to the surrounding whales before returning to the bottled overlord. "I want you to become the guardian beast of my Sinclair Order. Your clan will act as protectors of my island."

The Devouring Whale Overlord's eyes narrowed, and its voice boomed with defiance. "Impossible! I will never yield to you humans!"

For a moment, there was silence as the creature paused, weighing its next words carefully. "You may not know this, but Level 9.9 is not a myth, yet it does not exist in this world. At least, no one here has reached it. Therefore, I am currently the peak powerhouse of this world, and I will never yield to you."

Linsley raised an eyebrow, unfazed by the overlord's declaration. He remained calm, calculating, and spoke again. "Perhaps no one has reached Level 9.9, but that doesn't mean you're invincible. With my gift and my team, your so-called 'peak' is nothing but an illusion. Why fight a battle you can't win?"

The whale snorted within the bottle, its pride refusing to waver. "Even trapped, I will not submit to a mere human."

Linsley's smile faded slightly as the Devouring Whale Overlord's defiance remained firm. He decided to shift tactics, his gaze drifting to the whales surrounding them.

"I could end this right now," Linsley said coldly, his eyes narrowing as he looked at the whales that were still circling beneath. "You refuse to cooperate, but what about your clan? Are they so eager to die for you? If you won't submit, I'll take your clanmates as hostages, one by one."

A tense silence fell over the ocean as the surrounding whales stirred, hearing Linsley's threat.

One of the larger whales, exuding a strong aura of royalty, raised its voice, speaking in a human tongue. "We would rather die than yield to a mere human," it boomed. "Take us if you must, but know this—our honor is more important than our lives. We will never submit!"

Linsley's eyes gleamed, scanning the defiant faces of the whales around him.

The Devouring Whale Overlord sneered, its voice filled with disdain. "Heard that, human? My clan stands with me. We Devouring Whales are not cowards, and we'd rather die than submit to you or any human."

Linsley's smirk faltered momentarily, but he quickly masked his frustration. "You're protecting them," he said slowly, "but what if I promise you more than just survival? What if I offer power—power beyond your wildest imagination? You could be more than just the strongest in the ocean."

The Devouring Whale Overlord let out a deep, mocking laugh. "You think we desire your human promises of power? I rule the ocean, and that's enough. I will not be your puppet."
