Invincible! This person has lived for a billion years-Chapter 777 Not poisonous enough just wasn’t thrilling!
Chapter 777 Not poisonous enough just wasn't thrilling!
?William never thought of the Mutated creatures as particularly bloodthirsty,at least for now, these creatures had simply become physically stronger while their minds remained quite simple.
They hadn't developed a civilization like humans,most of their killings were purely for survival, unlike humans who in the past might have killed animals out of vanity or to turn their bodies into wealth.
Because of this, beast waves were unlikely to happen often.
After updating some of the Mutated creatures' data, William went home.
The first thing he did at home, naturally, was to find something to eat.
He had eaten all kinds of land animals before, and after mutation, their meat generally became firmer but also drier, and likely not as tasty.
William naturally turned his attention to the mutated marine creatures.
Even after mutation, the flesh of marine creatures generally maintained its original level of tenderness, although some developed toxins or had their toxins become more potent.
To the average person, these toxins were deadly, but to William, they were like chili peppers to ordinary people.
Not poisonous enough just wasn't thrilling!
Blue-Striped Devil Octopus!
William had had his eye on this type of octopus for a while. Previously, he had prepared it for Amy, so he always chose the non-toxic parts, skillfully cutting them off without the Blue-Striped Devil Octopus even noticing.
After all, William wasn't cruel enough to keep slicing meat off a single Blue-Striped Devil Octopus.
The previous Blue-Striped Devil Octopuses were still young and not very toxic. This time, William had his sights set on an adult Blue-Striped Devil Octopus living in the deep sea.
This particular Blue-Striped Devil Octopus was clearly mature and had mutated thoroughly, making it the largest and fattest one on the entire planet.
When William arrived in the deep sea, the Blue-Striped Devil Octopus was lazily wandering around, occasionally taking a breath and then devouring some of the surrounding marine life.
If its body were fully extended, it would span over ten thousand miles, undoubtedly a colossal creature wherever it was.
When William appeared in front of it, he was like a mosquito hovering beside an elephant, hardly enough to catch its attention.
"Hey! Stop right there!"
William called out softly, and the Blue-Striped Devil Octopus's form hesitated, suddenly losing control.
William then appeared right in front of the Blue-Striped Devil Octopus.
The Blue-Striped Devil Octopus had developed a sense of awareness, and although William was small in size, his presence instinctively frightened it.
"Spit out some poison," William said, intending to test the product first since he had never eaten this type of poisonous octopus meat before.
Poisonous and non-poisonous, the taste should be quite different.
Of course, a normal person, even a Demi-God level powerhouse, would definitely not fancy eating poisonous octopus meat.
Startled by William's command, the Blue-Striped Devil Octopus exuded blue toxins all over its body.
With a flick of his finger, William gathered a cluster of blue poison at his fingertip.
He didn't even need to taste it to know that the toxin was decent. Paired with octopus meat, the flavor should be quite good, though it all depended on the concentration of the toxin.
Since the concentration affects the taste, William still put the blue toxin in his mouth to try it.
The Blue-Striped Devil Octopus was almost dumbfounded.
What kind of person was this?
Eating its poison?
Wasn't he afraid of dying?
After tasting it, William slightly frowned—the flavor was a bit mild...
The Blue-Striped Devil Octopus thought to itself, this person should die, right?
So brazenly eating poison?
But the next moment, William pulled out a knife, appeared in front of the Blue-Striped Devil Octopus, and sliced off a piece of meat from its central part, then strode away.
The Blue-Striped Devil Octopus was utterly bewildered. What had just happened?
Where was it now?
What kind of being was this bipedal creature?
Why was such a small creature so terrifying?
The Blue-Striped Devil Octopus felt the situation was too bizarre. Having always lived in the deep sea, it had never seen such a creature before and had no idea where it came from!
Frightened, the Blue-Striped Devil Octopus hurriedly burrowed deeper into the ocean trench.
William had no idea that his actions today had caused such a psychological trauma to the Blue-Striped Devil Octopus that many years later, when it first rushed out of the deep sea and saw the land filled with numerous bipedal creatures, it was so scared that it immediately fled back to the deep sea, never to venture out again in its lifetime.
To it, all those bipedal creatures were as terrifying as William.
The land must be a horrifying place, it thought, unimaginable.
William arrived at his New York City backyard with the octopus meat and its poison in tow.
When it comes to cooking gourmet food, there's nothing quite like doing it in a familiar place.
It was early evening, and the deep autumn night was particularly cold.
As soon as William appeared in the yard, he noticed Seraphina sitting under the sycamore tree in a wingback chair, much like how William himself used to sit there and read.
"Mr. Johnson?" Seraphina quickly stood up upon seeing William, a bit surprised, but she soon squeezed out a smile, masking her awkwardness, and said, "Didn't Amy come back with you? I've been waiting for her here."
Seraphina had previously escaped from the Divine Realm and possessed Sofia's body, making her entanglements with William quite complex.
Seraphina was naturally proud, but a man like William was exactly the type that such a proud woman found irresistible.
"She didn't come back," William said. "Thank you for taking care of Amy all these years."
"It's only right, after all, I... I owe Amy..."
Seraphina couldn't go into details, certainly not about how Amy had raised her from nothing.
"Have you eaten?" William asked. "If not, you're welcome to join me."
"Yes! That would be great!" Seraphina said, "Thank you!"
Seraphina's current strength was not weak, and unlike William, she didn't usually have cravings for food, but how could she refuse an invitation to dine with him?
"This fish meat is poisonous, will you eat it?" William sized up Seraphina, whose current body was transformed from the Eternal Vine. Logically, she should fear fire but not poison.
Being originally a plant, could a bit of poison actually kill her?
If the toxicity was too intense, it might not be impossible!
"I'll eat!" Seraphina declared resolutely.
William smiled and said, "You really are brave."
Back when William hadn't figured out what a Cosmic Entity was, he couldn't resurrect beings, or rather, even if he did resurrect them, various accidents would lead to their deaths. But now, he no longer had such concerns.
As long as he wanted, he could resurrect anyone.
Everything was without worry now, even if Seraphina were to die from poisoning, William could simply bring her back to life.
So whether she would actually die from the poison seemed irrelevant.
