Chapter 591 How about that? Feels good, doesn\'t it!
Ares and his beloved dog, Sparta, squatted in a dark corner, utterly bored.
Nearly all the elite of the Nature Deity rank in the entire Divine Realm had converged on this area, sealing it off completely.
Alice was still hiding inside an alchemy furnace.
Within a five-mile radius of the furnace, trees were destroyed, the ground was pockmarked, and attacks on the furnace continued unabated.
William approached Ares and asked, "Has she really been hiding in there for nine days?"
Ares, startled, turned his head to see William and quickly replied, "Master, Alice has been hiding inside all this time, not daring to show her head. But I think if she comes out now, she\'d probably be killed by everyone."
"Oh? Then let\'s wait together and see what happens next." William wasn\'t in a hurry; he never rushed, preferring to wait.
With a wave of his hand, William set up two wingback chairs and a small table on the nearby open ground, complete with juice, fruits, and fries.
"Please sit, don\'t be shy, you\'ve been a great help these days." After saying this, William slowly took a seat.
Ares\'s mouth twitched, but he didn\'t hide.
The two of them sat there openly.
After Ares appeared, the elites surrounding Alice noticed him too, but in the Divine Realm, probably only Ares would be seen wearing golden armor and accompanied by a Doberman.
No one dared to approach and ask.
As for William, he was unfamiliar to them, but sitting with Ares, he must be a significant figure, so naturally, no one bothered them.
"What\'s going on with them?" William asked Ares, sipping juice.
Ares wasn\'t as casual,sitting down felt like sitting on pins and needles.
In response to William\'s question, he cautiously replied, "On the fourth day, those Nature Deity elites realized their attacks couldn\'t damage Alice\'s alchemy furnace at all and were about to give up when Alice provoked them with her words."
"That\'s why they started a new round of attacks."
"On the sixth day, the news that Nature Deity elites could pursue Alice spread throughout the Divine Realm, drawing almost all of them here, making the situation uncontrollable."
"Alice hasn\'t spoken in the past few days, but the Eternal Starfire outside the alchemy furnace seems to be getting stronger. I believe Alice\'s abilities have improved."
...
Listening to Ares\'s work report, William smiled and said, "You\'ve done a great job!"
"Mr. Johnson, you flatter me." Ares sat in the wingback chair, his back ramrod straight, clearly uncomfortable.
William placed a paper book on the small table and said, "Your Ninefold Arcane Art has been perfected to its limit, and advancing further will be difficult. Here is a secret technique for you to study."
William, back in the day, created the first generation of humans from clay, and after all, could be considered the progenitor of all deities in the Divine Realm.
However, the act of destroying the world with a single blow was indeed outrageous. In the end, it was a Cosmic Entity that helped revive them...
In a sense, the humans now living on Earth can be considered the second creation, evolved from the Cosmic Entity\'s act of creation. But those living in the Divine Realm, aside from the Shapeshifters and the demon race, the rest of the humans can be considered William\'s descendants.
Ares is also Zeus\'s son, and Zeus is William\'s disciple, which makes Ares\'s relationship with William even more extraordinary.
Working for William usually comes with rewards, and Ares had been promised something, so receiving the secret technique wasn\'t a big deal.
Ares stood up to thank William, but a look from William stopped him. "Sit down and take your time reading it. If there\'s anything you don\'t understand, ask me while I\'m available."
"Yes!"
Ares obediently sat back down and picked up the book of secret techniques from the table.
The book did not have a name on it, but as he opened the first page, he immediately felt the ancient and desolate energy emanating from the magical text.
"What are these symbols?" Ares had never seen such writing before, but felt he could understand some of it.
William smiled mysteriously, "Linear A! Try to feel the power contained within with your heart. How much you understand is up to you."
"I can understand some of it." Ares\'s heart raced, and his soul\'s energy surged throughout his body.
It wasn\'t about the content of the text anymore,what mattered was who had written these symbols.
"Take your time with it. I spent over two hours writing it," William said, bringing over a plate of fruit and calling over to Sparta, "Puppy, come here."
Sparta whimpered but reluctantly walked over to William.
Ares, fearing William might harm the dog, looked hesitantly at William and whispered, "Please... please be merciful..."
To be honest, if William really wanted to eat dog meat, Ares couldn\'t stop him.
From any perspective, William\'s strength absolutely overpowered Ares.
William said with a laugh, "Don\'t panic, petting won\'t kill him."
Sparta extended his tongue, looking up at William with a face full of eagerness, squatting beside him, allowing William to stroke his head.
"How about that? Feels good, doesn\'t it!" William glanced at Sparta. He didn\'t really like eating dog meat, especially an old dog like Sparta who had been with Ares for so many years.
Wouldn\'t it be too cruel to kill him in front of Ares?
Sparta felt his blood flow smoothly after William petted him.
As a divine dog, it\'s hard to make progress in strength, but after being petted by William, he felt he had gained some understanding.
This person...
"Mr. Johnson, please feel free to pet him." Sparta\'s dog face even showed a smile, gently nudging William\'s hand with his head.
"This fur feels quite nice." William also enjoyed it, petting the dog and eating fruit, watching his wife getting beaten...
It actually felt pretty good!
If Alice knew what William was thinking, she would be furious. But now, she was hiding inside the alchemy furnace, focusing on improving her strength, making rapid progress.
William, looking at Alice inside the alchemy furnace, realized her fate was actually quite fortunate.
So many people were helping her improve her strength.
Truly a concerted effort!
Most importantly, Alice\'s mentality had undergone a significant change, seemingly becoming more eager to become stronger.
In just ten days, she went from the early stages of Mortal Deity level to the peak of Elemental Deity level, taking only nine days.
Moreover, because the alchemy furnace converts the energy from external attacks into soul energy and injects it into the furnace, the quality of her peak Elemental Deity level is exceptionally high. Now, even without using the Sword of Soulbreaker, she could probably face a peak Nature Deity level head-on.
As a true chosen one, fighting above one\'s class level is quite normal.
William counted, and there were already one thousand three hundred and thirty-two Nature Deity level elites bombarding the alchemy furnace with their magical artifacts.
Alice\'s rapid improvement in strength was partly thanks to their efforts!
However, William also wondered, if Alice came out of the alchemy furnace, whether she would be instantly killed by a focused attack.
Given the firepower, it was entirely possible.
But he definitely wouldn\'t intervene.
