Zoey’s strike exposed the weakness of the fierce creature.
William too had his fill of excitement and satisfied his curiosity.
Jhin, on the other hand, fell into deep contemplation.
In the eyes of others, this weakness is nothing significant, and these creatures were already quite formidable.
But from his perspective, it was entirely unacceptable.
Now that Soulmancers had emerged in the world of ordinary people, causing a collision between supernatural abilities and technology, if they couldn’t overcome such an obvious weakness, who would control the Soulmancers if they disrupted the world order?
Ordinary people’s peaceful lives should not depend on the mercy of Soulmancers. Only by possessing the power to protect themselves could they truly achieve peace.
Otherwise…
Would they have to return to the ancient times of revering and fearing gods?
“If the chip could be implanted in the creatures’ hearts, or exist in a liquid form…” Jhin was already thinking of solutions.
If the chip was implanted in the heart, with the creature’s astonishing defensive capabilities, even someone with Zoey’s abnormal strength would have difficulty destroying it!
If the chip could be made into a liquid within the creature’s bloodstream, that would be even better. Even if the body was torn apart, it could still fight.
“Implanting it in the heart is not hard, but the difficulty lies in how to observe the outside world from the heart,” Jhin mused, stroking his beard. “Once this problem is solved, it’ll be simple.”
With current technology, implanting the chip in the creature’s heart wasn’t too difficult, but what about the visual perspective?
William, speaking up from the side, said, “Install two cameras in the creature’s eyes, then use satellite positioning to create a third-person view. This way, you can switch between views.”
“Ah-ha?” Jhin, excitedly pulling out a beard hair, exclaimed, “How did I not think of this simple solution? You really are a genius!”
William smiled silently. The solution might sound simple, but the real difficulty lay in controlling the creature through the chip.
The perspective?
With current technology, it was easy to solve. Yet Jhin was fixated on integrating the chip with the camera.
William had previously used his psychic perception to see that various major Soulmancer organizations were also utilizing the corpses of these fierce creatures.
Alchemy was just the most basic; they also controlled the creatures’ corpses using magic, puppetry, and dark energy.
These methods weren’t necessarily weaker than Jhin’s chip implantation.
However, William had no desire to bother with these trivial matters.
Let them play their small tricks,only through continuous innovation could there be progress.
“Steven, Dr. Lopez, I’m going back to sleep,” William casually made an excuse to leave.
In three days, the Guilds would start recruiting apprentices, and William planned to prepare for that.
Wyatt and his roommates shared a dorm with William, which seemed like fate. Why not give them a simple tome on how to harness energy?
As for how much they could improve, that entirely depended on their own talent. William didn’t want to interfere too much.
The next day, as the golden morning light entered the yard, Amy ran into William’s yard.
“Mr. Johnson, turn your head away!”
“Huh?” William looked at the little girl, puzzled by her request.
Amy’s face turned red as she said loudly, “I need to pee! Boys aren’t supposed to look!” 𝘳.𝑐𝘰
William turned his head to the side, saying, “Don’t you know to go to the bathroom?”
Running into his yard to pee in the early morning?
Was this kid’s brain broken?
“Miss Seraphina told me to take good care of this little grass!” Amy said as she began peeing near the Eternal Vine.
“Is this how you take care of it?” William said irritably. “Why don’t you just poop there too? It would make good fertilizer!”
After saying this, he regretted it immediately because he already smelled something foul.
“Amy! Don’t…” William called out softly, not expecting the little girl to actually poop.
Can this thing be so readily available? 𝘪.𝑐ℴ𝘮
As if not hearing him, Amy continued pooping while shifting her position to avoid getting it on herself.
After a few minutes, Amy started asking, “Mr. Johnson, do you have any paper?”
“…” William felt completely at a loss.
If it were anyone else daring to poop in his yard early in the morning, he would have beaten them half to death!
Not only did Amy do that, but she even asked him for paper!!
William had originally planned to go to school early today, but Amy’s actions made him hesitate.
He even specially found some bamboo to make a fence around the Eternal Vine.
He was convinced that Amy, the foolish child, would definitely return the next morning!
Since Maria had started preparing for the opening of her store after going home yesterday, she didn’t set up her breakfast stall today.
Maria had thought about making breakfast for Amy, but she had disappeared before she could.
When Maria walked in front of William’s yard, she saw Amy already sitting on a stone bench eating an egg sandwich, while William was busy building the fence in the corner of the yard.
Maria curiously asked, “William, what are you doing with that? Are you going to plant some more flowers or keep some small animals?”
William glanced at Amy, who was engrossed in her sandwich, and after composing his words, said, “Building a toilet.”
He guessed that if he told Maria the truth, Amy might get a good beating when she got home.
“Why are you building a toilet here?” Maria asked casually, without much thought.
“For convenience,” William replied with a smile, offering no further explanation.
“Amy! Mom will take you to school in a while. Don’t always rely on Mr. Johnson for meals,” Maria said, paying more attention to Amy’s psychological health after the incident at the parent-teacher meeting.
Amy touched her head, not daring to look up, her face reddening even more.
“Huh? Amy, why is your face so red? Are you sick?” Maria touched Amy’s forehead, which wasn’t feverish.
Although young, Amy vaguely felt that if her mom knew what she had just done, she might get a spanking…
But if she didn’t tell her mom, would that make her a bad kid?
So, she looked up and said, “Mommy, I just did Doo-doo over there because Miss Seraphina told me to take good care of the fairy grass so that a fairy would grow from it!”
“…” Maria stood frozen, unable to speak.
“William, don’t spoil her too much! Who does that? And you’re building her a toilet?” Maria suppressed the urge to spank Amy, but felt she needed to say something to William. Kids shouldn’t be spoiled too much.
As William continued building the fence, he laughed, “She took on someone else’s request, is very trustworthy in her actions, made a mistake, and had the courage to admit it. I don’t see anything wrong with that!”
Seraphina, this little one will take care of you from now on. I was going to get some fertilizer for you, but it seems unnecessary now.
