Chapter 507 A bunch of numbskulls, daring to play mind games with him?
Poseidon's Trident and the other Olympian artifacts had their energy sealed by William, and for many years, they were mostly treated as decorative objects in William's residence.
The Weapon Spirits of Poseidon's Trident and the other Olympian artifacts were somewhat dejected.
Back when the Trident was in Poseidon's hands, it was immensely prestigious, and even when not in use, it was venerated in the Palace of the Sea God.
In the era of the gods, the Olympian artifacts, arranged by Poseidon into the God Slayer Sword magic circle, were known as the strongest divine banishing magic circle.
However, once these artifacts came into William's possession, they were essentially treated as junk...
And the Weapon Spirits dared not resist!
They were all too aware of this man's terrifying power.
A casual swing of his sword could break such a powerful magic circle, and his Sword of Soulbreaker was of a quality far surpassing theirs, to the point that its quality was incomprehensible.
They only remembered trembling in the presence of the Sword of Soulbreaker.
Now, the Trident and the other Olympian artifacts were finally back in Poseidon's hands.
Gathering all the artifacts, Poseidon joyfully said, "Mr. Johnson is indeed a man of his word. You should visit the Divine Realm when you have time, be my guest in the Palace of the Sea God, and I will ensure you are well received."
William, already starting another game, replied, "We'll see if I have time. If there's nothing else, you should take your leave." Nôv(el)B\\jnn
In the game, the characters controlled by players have fixed attributes, health bars, and can die.
This is an experience William doesn't have in real life.
Perhaps this is the biggest difference between William and other players.
Ares left William's residence with Poseidon, and William continued his leisurely life.
As long as those from the Divine Realm don't overstep, William wouldn't intervene.
In his view, making Alice stronger is his current priority.
In a way, for Alice to become stronger, she must face stronger opponents.
Ideally, just like her last battle with the archangel, experiencing life-and-death situations would lead to the greatest progress.
With Alice's current strength, she can hold her own against anyone below the Demi-God level.
William thought about taking her on a tour of the Divine Realm, considering her luck, she might just stumble upon some bizarre and rare opportunity.
However, Alice's current power is far too weak. Bringing her to the Divine Realm might just leave her being bullied.
Alice was still meditating, absorbing William's essence. William, without giving it much thought, spent two days at home playing games, somewhat out of boredom.
One day, a thunderous noise came from the sky. William glanced outside to see a giant mushroom cloud rising at an altitude of ten thousand feet.
Energy fluctuations spread far and wide, space fractured, and houses shook.
Twelve deities of witchcraft had actually started fighting with Poseidon.
Poseidon was taking on all twelve single-handedly without falling into a disadvantage.
William was well aware that if Poseidon wished, all twelve deities of witchcraft could fall today.
The gap in power between a high-ranking God-King and a Destroyer Deity level is significant.
For a high-ranking God-King to erase a deity of witchcraft of the Destroyer Deity level is as easy as a flick of the wrist; any talk of the power of laws is almost laughable in this context.
Especially since they were facing one of the most terrifying high-ranking God-Kings.
With the Trident and other Olympian artifacts in Poseidon's hands, he is indeed one of the most formidable high-ranking God-Kings. If he were to get serious, wiping out the deities of witchcraft wouldn't be out of the question.
However, Poseidon also remembered William's words not to use those artifacts on Earth. Moreover, he didn't really want to kill the deities of witchcraft, so he was mostly showing restraint and defending passively.
"Moros, hand over that person named Lucien under your command to me, and we'll call it even," Poseidon said. "You should know, that boy could potentially become a great demon lord in the future. If you can't keep an eye on him, it could lead to a major disaster for this world."
Moros snorted, "I can certainly prioritize, but as you said, another potential future demon lord is already in Odin's hands. Lucien naturally stays in the Prime World. If you collude with Odin to create a demon lord, who will bear the responsibility?"
In the past two days, Luna and the others had killed all the pseudo "Chosen Ones" except for Lucien and another young man named Elric.
They had attempted to kidnap Lucien but were stopped by Moros.
Now that Poseidon suggested taking Lucien to the Divine Realm, Moros naturally disagreed.
They all seemed to understand that if either Lucien or Elric died, the other would become a great demon lord.
However, according to Odin's command, they couldn't just kill them; only the last two were to be brought back to the Divine Realm.
Now with the forceful intervention of Moros and Poseidon, the situation became more complicated, leaving Luna and the others with no choice but to take Elric back to the Divine Realm first.
Poseidon was furious. As a powerful high-ranking God-King, they had a mutual agreement not to harm humans on Earth without a good reason, otherwise, he would have gone directly to Odin to forcefully take the person.
He wasn't William, and couldn't do whatever he pleased.
Now Moros was suggesting he might be colluding with Odin?
Had he lost his mind?
Initially, he had come to negotiate amicably with Moros, but these deities of witchcraft, relying on their numbers, dared to make a move against him.
"I simply disdain to act against you. You can go and consult William yourself," Poseidon remembered the first time he saw Moros, who was in William's yard, probably William's pet.
In the end, he dared not kill Moros, fearing it would anger William.
Who knew if Moros's actions and words represented William's will?
"I will consult Mr. Johnson myself." Although Moros is now revered as a deity of witchcraft by his tribe, he still regards William as his leader.
"Then go ahead," Poseidon had many thoughts.
If Moros consulted William, then it would become William's issue.
What about the great demon lord? Wouldn't it be better to let William handle it?
Then, whatever way William decided to deal with Lucien would be acceptable.
If he's willing to kill, then let him kill. In the end, if a great demon lord emerges, it will be William's responsibility to deal with it.
Now, Poseidon was somewhat eager to see if a great demon lord indeed appeared, wondering who would prove to be more formidable—him or William?
Moros didn't have as many roundabouts in his thinking as Poseidon. In his view, Lucien could not possibly be handed over to Poseidon.
Back when the Shapeshifters tribe and humans had banded together to hunt down their witchcraft tribe, Poseidon had also attacked their tribe, killing countless followers. Giving Lucien to Poseidon was utterly out of the question.
Poseidon stood in the air, surveying the twelve deities of witchcraft, his eyes slightly narrowed.
A bunch of numbskulls, daring to play mind games with him?
Moros didn't think too much about it, instructed the other deities of witchcraft to disperse, and then went to William's residence.
"Mr. Johnson, that Poseidon is asking us to hand over Lucien to him. What do you think about this?" Moros respectfully said upon seeing William, "These past few days, those Shapeshifters scum have killed many. The other 'Chosen One' has been sent to Odin in the Divine Realm, not sure what they are planning."
William glanced at him and said, "If Poseidon wants the person, just give him. Why bother about so much?"
