Poseidon, holding his trident, stood in space, slightly taken aback by the dense group of angels before him.
At his level of existence, language had ceased to be important,he understood what the angel had said…
Kill him?
Back in the day, one of his avatars ventured into the world of angels and was directly annihilated.
And now, merely passing by, these angels wished to kill him too?
A smile appeared on Poseidon’s lips.
Perfect, his Trident and other Olympian artifacts hadn’t been used in a long while. Now, in space, there was no worry of harming the innocent.
As a group of angels charged at Poseidon with holy light, he waved his sea-blue robe, and four divine swords floated around him, with a blue magical array under his feet.
He pointed forward with the Trident in his hand, and four divine swords along with the magic circle all flew towards the angels in front of him.
For a moment, yellow fog billowed, fierce winds rose, and thunder and fire filled the sky, enveloping tens of thousands of angels.
The yellow fog passed, turning any touched angel into black mist.
The fierce wind dispersed the flesh and blood of even the eighteen-winged angels, leaving behind only skeletal remains.
The sweeping thunder and fire reduced all to ashes.
The intersecting divine swords created myriad energy fluctuations, beneath which souls wept.
In the span of five breaths, tens of thousands of angels were annihilated.
“Not worth a blow!”
Poseidon glanced at the corpses floating in the vast cosmos, withdrew the magical array, and departed.
Approaching Earth, just as he passed through the atmosphere, an ion cannon shot towards him.
Despite its speed, Poseidon was faster, and the cannon missed its mark.
“What’s this?” Poseidon was momentarily surprised. It had been some time since he last sought out William, and the humans had managed to create such a formidable weapon?
He could feel that the blast from just now had some potency. While it was unlikely to harm him, there was a chance it could slay beings at the level of a Nature Deity.
Sitting beside William, Steven was terrified by the scene he had just witnessed. From the perspective of a distant satellite, it appeared that Poseidon merely waved his robe, and all those angels were annihilated.
Seeing his own forces firing at Poseidon, he quickly pulled out his phone and called the command center of the Galactic Special Forces.
“Cease fire! Don’t shoot at that person!” Steven shouted excitedly, “Are you idiots? Can’t you distinguish between friend and foe?”
The person at the command center who had ordered the firing was also sweating coldly.
Poseidon’s speed was so fast that it left no time for thought.
But now, thinking back, they had actually fired at a divine being capable of wiping out tens of thousands of angels with a mere gesture?
Were they seeking death?
Poseidon didn’t make a big deal out of it. By the time Steven hung up the phone, he had already appeared in William’s yard. .
Steven was so shocked that he froze on the spot.
Could it be?
Had he been sought out so quickly?
“Mr. Johnson, it’s been a long time.” Poseidon was still very respectful in front of William.
Steven was at a loss for words. He had met Delmar but had never seen Poseidon before.
From the combat scene involving Poseidon just now, one could easily infer how terrifying his power was.
Yet, he was so respectful in front of William, and Steven had even questioned William’s strength before.
Considering this, wasn’t William even more powerful than this mysterious being?
William poured him a cup of tea, his eyebrows revealing a hint of a smile: “Just get to the point.”
A person like Poseidon wouldn’t visit without a reason.
Even in the past, when seeking out William, it was mostly with an ulterior motive.
“Let’s talk after the tea.” Poseidon also smiled, his eyes briefly glancing at Steven.
The implication was clear.
Though Steven was not very powerful, having led the 13th Bureau for so many years gave him some insight. He chuckled, “Mr. Johnson, I came in a rush and forgot to turn off the stove at home where I’m stewing beef. I’ll take my leave first.”
After saying this and nodding at Poseidon with a smile, he left.
Steven sought out William because he saw those angels appearing nearby, right?
Now, with the angels dead, as long as this mysterious being doesn’t pursue the matter of their firing, all is well.
After Steven left, William didn’t question Poseidon but instead took a sip of tea and continued reading his book.
Poseidon, too, didn’t say much more, just sat down and drank his tea quietly.
As the sun set, Poseidon still hadn’t said anything.
William put down the book, went into the kitchen, and started cooking.
For the entire afternoon, the two didn’t speak another word to each other.
When the delicious meal was ready, Poseidon naturally helped set the table. With a wave of his sea-blue robe, a bottle of wine appeared on the stone table.
“Come, try this Nectar I’ve kept for tens of thousands of years and see how it tastes.” Poseidon also brought out two golden cups, acting as if he were completely at home.
William glanced at him and seriously said, “Are you just here to freeload a meal?”
“Hahaha! I thought you’d never ask!” Poseidon laughed heartily. William’s silence throughout the afternoon and his question now gave Poseidon the illusion of having won a battle.
William looked at him expressionlessly: “You’re easily amused.”
“Am I?” Poseidon’s smile persisted as he glanced towards William’s house, “Is Alice still in meditation?”
“You’ve been fond of asking questions you already know the answer to lately, haven’t you?” William picked up a bottle of wine from the table, poured himself a glass, and then pushed the bottle back.
Too lazy to pour for him.
Their actions were just like that of quarreling children.
“I came here this time to ask…” Poseidon paused, then said, “Are you going to Divine Realm?”
“Are you planning to treat me to a meal after we get to the Divine Realm?” William responded with a question instead of an answer.
After thinking for a moment, Poseidon straightforwardly said, “We, the Olympian gods, plan to consolidate the various forces in Divine Realm. If you’re going to Divine Realm, I’d like to know what you plan to do, so I can be prepared.”
William asked, “Are you planning to clear out the deity of witchcraft, the Shapeshifters, the demons, and other foreign races?”
“Do you have to put it so bluntly?” Poseidon said, “I know you don’t like beating around the bush, but saying it out loud like this is not too good.”
“Heh! What’s not good about it?” William was just guessing,after all, any power would want to unify Divine Realm.
Unification has somehow become a kind of belief.
Poseidon looked at William seriously and asked again, “Has the deity of witchcraft already submitted to you?”
“Submitted?” William said coldly, “I don’t belong to any force, nor do I accept any submission.”
“So, if we attack the Shapeshifters, you won’t interfere, right? As far as I know, Luna and Erebus were also with you before.” Poseidon’s fear in seeking out William was that they would just start moving against the deity of witchcraft and the Shapeshifters, and William would come out and beat them up directly.
How could they dare to make a move without clearing this up first?
“Why should I care?” A mysterious smile appeared at the corner of William’s mouth, “You play your games, I’ll play mine.”
“Hmm?” Suddenly, Poseidon felt there was something off about William’s words. What exactly did William want to play?
This billion-year-old mischievous old man…
