Chapter 738 The construction of the new city experiment
Of course, William didn't actually punch Samuel.
Samuel walked out of the testing room with a smile alongside William.
The two of them chatted and laughed.
"William, I'll leave those scouts to you. Thanks a lot for teaching them the animal language. If you're willing to teach them some quick movement secrets, I'd be really grateful."
"No need to thank me," William chuckled. "Don't worry, I won't teach them any quick movement secrets."
Samuel's smile stiffened slightly, a touch of awkwardness in his expression.
Man, this guy really can't do small talk.
Even if you won't teach, can't you exchange a few pleasantries?
"William, that rapid movement technique of yours is really something," Walker stepped forward, clapping William on the shoulder. "With that technique, even if you can't beat someone, escaping is no problem at all, unless you run into a powerhouse like my master."
William chuckled.
If he encountered someone on Moros's level, he wouldn't need to run.
At Moros's level, anyone who recognized William the Obliterator would bow down or kneel as a basic courtesy.
"Commander Samuel, is our accommodation arranged?" Walker, technically a direct subordinate of Steven but with formidable strength and a deep background, would definitely receive VIP treatment in Arcane Village.
And Amy, needless to say, although few knew who her master was, her test data from six months ago had placed her eleventh in the human rankings—no one would underestimate her.
"It's all arranged, you can be assured," Samuel replied, then suddenly asked, "What brings you and Amy here? Is something expected to happen in Arcane Village that you've come to support?"
Samuel's reasoning was straightforward: every base had its powerhouses, and Arcane Village was no exception, housing the third and sixth ranked humans.
With Mount Olympus above and Pantheon Academy, it seemed unlikely for Walker and Amy to visit without an urgent reason.
He also wondered if there was a major issue at the New York City base, and if Walker and Amy had come seeking assistance.
But whether through communications with the New York City base or judging by Walker's demeanor, there seemed to be no issues there.
Otherwise, Walker wouldn't have the time to watch him and William circling around inside the testing room.
"Oh, it's nothing. I just brought Amy out to see the world," Walker said, of course not mentioning that he and Amy were actually looking for a place to fight, eventually settling on Mount Olympus.
Wouldn't Samuel chew him out for this?
Strangely enough, why would Steven agree to let Amy and Walker go out for a one-on-one?
Walker was now a bit puzzled. Could it be that they intentionally let Amy out to gain some experience?
"See the world..." Samuel pondered.
"We are indeed planning to use Arcane Village as a test site for a new city on Earth," Samuel blinked and said, "You guys are here to observe, right?"
Walker nodded repeatedly: "Yes! Here to observe and learn." He had no idea about any new city experiment.
With Samuel saying this, he just went with the flow.
And he was somewhat curious about this new city experiment.
Now that he was here, why not check it out?
"Then come with me to the meeting and feel free to give your input," Samuel suggested.
"A meeting?" Walker felt he probably couldn't offer any input, since he had no clue about this new city experiment.
Amy?
Walker acknowledged Amy's strength, but when it came to these matters, asking Amy was as pointless as getting a dog to bark a few times.
"Let's bring William along too, meet some of the officials from Arcane Village. You're planning to stay with us in Arcane Village, right?" Samuel smiled, "William, we've hit it off so well, you wouldn't go back to New York, would you?"
"??!" Walker suddenly realized something was off.
Damn it, Samuel, this shameless guy was actually poaching right here!
A man in his forties or fifties, shamelessly poaching people.
"Commander Samuel, that's not very honorable. William is my good brother, what do you mean by poaching him?" Walker frowned, showing his displeasure.
"How about you come over too?" Samuel said, "Send Amy back to New York, then come back here, and the two of you can fight side by side. Wouldn't that be great?"
Walker snorted and chuckled, "Why don't you keep Amy here too?"
Samuel replied, "Each base needs to have one or two strong fighters to hold the fort. If I kept Amy, wouldn't that significantly weaken the New York base? Plus, Steven would definitely come after me."
Walker clenched his teeth and said, "I'm also a key fighter for New York. If you take me away, Steven will come after you just the same."
Without another word, Samuel pulled out his phone, called Steven, and put him on speaker: "Steven, I'm thinking of transferring Walker over here, is that okay?"
Steven responded, "Ah! Go ahead and take him. That kid is a handful, handle it as you see fit, but make sure he sends Amy back. Amy might not know the way back."
Walker: "…"
Samuel continued, "And I want William transferred to me as well."
"William? Well…" Steven hesitated for a moment and then said, "You'll have to discuss that with William himself. If he's willing, then it's fine, but don't force him if he's not."
Walker was so frustrated he almost ground his teeth to dust, finally bursting out, "Steven, what do you mean by that? From your tone, am I less important than William now?"
Steven: "Cough, cough! Uh… Samuel, you still have me on speaker, right?"
"Yes, it's still on," Samuel replied unabashedly.
"Oh, then that's settled. I'm hanging up now," Steven said and then ended the call.
The message was clear.
Walker was incredibly frustrated, now feeling the urge to rush back to New York and give Steven a piece of his mind with his fists.
"Alright, that settles it. Come with me to the meeting," Samuel picked up his phone, shouted into a work group chat, and then led them to the conference room.
The construction of the new city experiment.
This was a crucial matter proposed after the global anomalies.
In these chaotic times, as humanity embarked on the path of evolution, the evolution of beasts was even more exaggerated, and human nature became increasingly complex, amplifying the darker aspects of humanity. The existing legal systems struggled to restrain people.
To save the world, revive human civilization, and even advance further, it was necessary to establish new rules and regulations, mobilize human powerhouses to resist mutated creatures, protect the vulnerable, establish schools, and cultivate humans suited for this era.
It was a time of great renewal.
Arcane Village, as the first base city established by the original 13th Bureau, had a solid foundation. The staff in the town were mostly rigorously selected, with mostly positive and upward-
thinking attitudes, making it the most suitable base for experimentation.
William, who had initially wanted to witness the revival of Earth, was very interested in this matter and could probably offer some suggestions at the meeting…
