“What exactly is your power level?” Walker had realized that William was strong, but he still had no clear idea of just how powerful William was.
Certainly more than a Demi-God level!
“I really don’t have a power level,” William said. “All I can say is, I don’t really like to fight,it’s boring.”
Walker, having finally asked, of course couldn’t just let it go at that. He needed a reference point, so he hesitated before asking further, “Then, are you more powerful than Amy’s masters?”
Without hesitation, William replied, “If we’re talking about combat power, I’m a bit stronger.”
…
Alright then!
Walker now had a rough idea of William’s power level.
Isn’t the whole point of classifying Soulmancers by power level to distinguish the strong from the weak?
Amy’s masters were famously powerful. If William was even slightly stronger than Zeus and Poseidon, that would place him beyond the power level of high-ranking god-kings.
“So you…” Walker’s brow furrowed as he spoke, “You could directly solve the current crisis?”
Considering the might of high-ranking god-kings, Walker guessed that someone of sufficient power level could single-handedly resolve the issue with Earth’s Mutated creatures.
William shook his head and smiled, “Those Mutated creatures are just trying to survive. From their perspective, what they’re doing isn’t wrong. Asking me to kill them just doesn’t sit right.”
In the world of rabbits, wolves are sinners too.
“Is it because of some restrictions?” Walker clearly didn’t understand William’s point. In his view, since William had chosen to stand with them, why not just kill those Mutated creatures?
Could it be that William was restrained by some special rules?
Indeed, many novels and films impose restrictions on powerful beings.
Such as cosmic laws or divine decrees that prevent the mighty from directly interfering in the affairs of mortals.
“There are no restrictions, I just don’t want to,” William said plainly, without any pretense or explanation. It was simply a matter of preference.
In today’s world, there really were no restrictions for him.
“Why don’t you want to?” Walker was still puzzled. If he were William, he would definitely eradicate all the Mutated creatures and give humanity a peaceful world.
“Why do you care!” William decided to end the conversation there. Was this never going to end?
Continuing this discussion would lead nowhere.
“Why though?”
“Get lost!”
William turned and walked away, tired of wasting words on Walker.
Amy trotted after William, “Walker is a bit dense, Mr. Johnson, don’t be mad.”
“I’m not mad.” How could William be angry? He was just dealing with a persistent fellow.
Samuel also held a celebration, with all the top human powerhouses present in the conference room.
“Everyone, you’ve worked hard!” Samuel said, “We owe the retrieval of these treasures from the Doors of Evolution to your collective efforts.”
Ares didn’t dare take any credit, Evelyn remained silent, and the other powerhouses…
Zed, ranked third, turned his face away when he saw William in the room.
Their initial purpose in coming to the Arcane Village base wasn’t for the treasures inside the Doors of Evolution, but to kill William.
Zed’s attempt to assassinate William had become a joke, and once it leaked, who else would dare make a move?
Then they found out Walker and Amy were safe and sound, and the most terrifying part was Amy, who clung to William like a shadow. How could William be a simple character?
And then there was Seraphina…
This woman wasn’t on the human power rankings, but in recent years, she had severely taught some people a lesson.
Didn’t you see how meek she was in front of William?
“This time, the resources we’ve brought back from the Doors of Evolution should be properly distributed to maximize their use,” Samuel continued. “If anyone has any suggestions, feel free to share.”
Amy and her team had brought back a lot, including divine fruits, various powerful artifacts, future-tech weapons, mysterious secret technique books, and various exquisite and powerful magic circle secret technique books, as well as some technology chips that surpassed this era.
There were also resources to help Soulmancers enhance their strength, including pills, crystal stones, and alchemical materials.
With so many resources, it was truly like finding treasure.
Amy was generous,aside from the Red Flame Fruits she ate before handing them over, everything she got from the tower was given to Samuel.
Samuel, seeing the treasures filling the entire storeroom, was ecstatic.
However, how to distribute these resources to maximize their benefits became a challenging task!
The base of Arcane Village couldn’t just keep them all in the storeroom.
One method was to send everything to the headquarters in Washington for the higher-ups to distribute.
But it would be better if they could think of a more effective way to distribute them before that.
Because…
William was here!
Samuel had called this meeting, in part, to seek William’s opinion.
William sat there looking at his phone. With the apocalypse upon them, novel websites had ceased operations, and most authors had stopped writing. He was reading old novels.
Entertainment options for humanity had dwindled,everyone was struggling just to survive. Who had time for fun?
But none of this applied to William. He wasn’t worried about survival, and reading novels was a fine pastime. As for those items, what did they have to do with him?
Samuel’s gaze kept darting towards William, but William showed no sign of interest.
Evelyn then spoke up, “Commander Samuel, I have something to say, though I’m not sure if it’s appropriate.”
“Please, Evelyn, speak,” Samuel said, aware of Evelyn’s background.
This woman had been the CEO of Allen Group, known for her extraordinary methods, and a disciple of Moros, the deity of witchcraft. She had once publicly immersed herself in boiling potion, her skin blistering and peeling, enduring untold suffering to achieve her current strength.
Evelyn’s words were definitely worth listening to.
“Commander Samuel wants the major Soulmancer organizations to come forward to resist the Mutated creatures, right?” Evelyn said. “The items we’ve brought back from the Doors of Evolution are undoubtedly divine artifacts for any Soulmancer organization. Commander Samuel could announce to the world that any Soulmancer organization that contributes can come and choose a treasure.”
“Secret technique books and those powerful magic circle setups aren’t for everyone,” Evelyn continued. “These items must fall into the hands of those who are suited to them to maximize their value.”
“Why not keep these treasures at the base of Arcane Village and let Soulmancers and superhumans worldwide exchange them for contribution points?” Evelyn suggested. “For example, killing an S-class Mutated creature, rescuing a certain number of civilians, all these could be converted into contribution points, and with enough points, they could come to the base to pick a treasure.”
In these chaotic times, many Soulmancers and superhumans chose to look out for themselves. Not everyone was thinking about saving the world, and without sufficient benefits, it was impossible to motivate people.
The treasures at the base of Arcane Village could indeed inspire Soulmancers and superhumans worldwide to join the effort to save the world!
