Chapter 749 Samuel, are you moving out?
Chapter 749 Samuel, are you moving out?
“William, did you come up with the name Blue-Tailed Shadow Beast?” Frederick, although primarily a researcher, could become sensitive about certain matters, and he was now even contemplating secretly plucking a strand of William’s hair for testing.
“Yes, I named it. But if you want to give it a new name, that’s fine by me,” William replied casually. Naming a Mutated creature was no big deal, after all.
Aren’t all animal names given by humans?
“There’s no need for that,” Frederick said, looking at William with a somewhat rapid breathing, like a starved old bachelor who had just seen a stunning beauty. His chest heaved as he finally couldn’t resist asking, “William, could you give me one of your hairs?”
William realized that Frederick was beginning to doubt his identity.
“Sure!” William said with a squint and a smile, plucking a hair and handing it to Frederick. “Take my hair and check it out. See if I’m human or not?”
“So, are you actually human?” Frederick asked, holding the hair, with neither of them making any attempt to hide their intentions.
Frederick stared straight at William, almost as if he was interrogating him.
“The hair is already yours, why don’t you check it yourself?” William’s smile remained.
His hair had been treated, a trick of a top-level magician, and those present wouldn’t be able to tell.
At that moment, Wes was also standing by. He knew how formidable William was, but even he wasn’t sure if William was human.
William could very well be a god, but he seemed not to want to reveal his true identity.
“Dr. Sanger, if William were a Mutated creature, why would he help us? I think your suspicions are quite hurtful!” Wes expressed his thoughts more directly.
The matter couldn’t have been made clearer.
Frederick suspected that William was a Mutated creature who had transformed into a human form after reaching a certain level of power, which is why he wanted a strand of William’s hair for testing.
It was as simple as that.
Samuel also harbored doubts about William’s identity, but in his view, William was genuinely trying to help them.
If Wes could think of these issues, how could he not?
William somehow knew about Mutated creatures that humans had never seen before, and he even had detailed data on them. Moreover, as a C-level superhuman, Frederick couldn’t catch up to him, and even after throwing numerous throwing knives, he couldn’t hit William…
There were just too many strange things.
Even Samuel began to suspect that William might be some kind of powerful Mutated creature in disguise…
“Dr. Sanger, your thoughts really aren’t good. Doubting one of our own like this, it’s only because William is magnanimous that we can pretend this never happened, right? Let’s continue organizing the data,” Samuel said as he took William’s hair from Frederick’s hand and casually tossed it on the ground.
He was well aware that if William truly was a powerful Mutated creature in disguise, it wouldn’t be wise to antagonize him.
At least for now, William was on their side.
He even began to imagine a Mutated creature who loved peace, betraying its own kind to stand with humanity, hiding its true identity, changing its appearance, and providing humans with information about Mutated creatures…
Damn, he was moved!
What a huge decision that must have been, how much blame must that creature be willing to bear!
And they were still doubting him!
That was just inhuman!!
Frederick fell silent for a moment, then said to William, “Mr. Johnson, I apologize. It was wrong of me to offend you.”
Perspective!
What is perspective?
Regardless of what kind of being William actually was, at least for now, he was helping humanity.
Even if, hypothetically, William really was a Mutated creature in disguise, did Frederick plan to dissect him for study?
Frederick forcefully calmed his excited heart and apologized to William.
William didn’t make a big deal out of these suspicions. Besides, the hair they took wouldn’t reveal anything significant. Even if it did show that his genes were powerful, what of it?
He wouldn’t offer his help unless he felt like it,his assistance was entirely at his own discretion.
Without saying anything, William continued to compile the next Mutated creature’s data.
After finishing, he started drawing another picture. This time, his movements were slow, taking three hours to complete the drawing…
To the average person, this speed would seem incredibly fast, but William was actually deliberately slowing down.
“Mr. Johnson, what would you like to eat?” Frederick showed the minimum respect due to William, as he had gained a lot of unknown information from him and had acknowledged his human identity.
“I’ll cook for myself when I get off work,” William replied as he finished organizing the current data and turned to Samuel, “Commander Samuel, what about the house you promised to arrange for me?”
In this era, the food at the base wasn’t very well-prepared, so William naturally preferred to cook at home.
“I want to go too!” Amy exclaimed upon hearing that William was going to cook at home.
She had no plans to return to New York anyway, and staying with William seemed like a much better option.
“Let’s go! Mr. Johnson, I’ll take you to your place,” Samuel also felt that they couldn’t keep William here just to organize data all the time. William’s requests were modest, just a place to stay.
It would be unreasonable not to fulfill such a small request.
William and Amy followed Samuel to the base’s residential building.
“William, there’s only one apartment left now, and it’s on the top floor,” Samuel explained, “Housing is tight right now, please understand.”
Leading William into the residential building, Samuel continued, “The top floor apartment was mine, but since you don’t have a place to stay, I’ll let you have it for now. I’ll squeeze in with another friend.”
William laughed and said, “I’ve just arrived and already taken over your place. How embarrassing is that?”
“How about… I squeeze in with you?” Samuel blinked, curious about William. Living together might also give him a chance to learn more about him.
William didn’t even look at him as he said, “Commander Samuel, you promised me the apartment as a gift, and now you want to live in it too? Isn’t that a bit thick-skinned?”
Damn!!
Samuel was incredibly frustrated. Damn, who just said they were embarrassed?
He just wanted to live together, and William rejected him so bluntly.
Really…
Who was being thick-skinned now?
Standing in the elevator, Samuel truly didn’t want to say a word.
In the base’s residential building, the higher the floor, the more dangerous it actually was. In the event of a Mutated creature attack or a building collapse, those living at the top were in greater danger.
Generally, the more powerful individuals lived on the higher floors because they could escape quickly if something unexpected happened.
Walker also remained silent, following behind until they entered the apartment. Then Samuel began to pack up his clothes and personal belongings.
“The apartment is yours now. As for organizing the Mutated creature data, I’ll leave that to Mr. Johnson,” Samuel said. “I’ll be living next door. If you need anything, just let me know.”
Those living on the same floor, all strong members of the Arcane Village base, were a bit stunned to see Samuel moving his things.
What did this mean?
Samuel, are you moving out?
