Chapter 774 Young people are always so reckless!

The more ferocious Zed's attacks became, the more fear he felt.

As an assassin, the principle was often to strike to kill with one blow and then retreat immediately.

But now?

His carefully planned strike hadn't achieved the lethal effect he'd intended, and though he wanted to retreat, he dared not.

Zed didn't know if retreating at this moment would expose him to a devastating counterattack from William.

This man was too bizarre,no matter how Zed attacked, he always managed to dodge perfectly.

Zed aimed a slash at William's throat, but William merely tilted his head slightly at the moment the blade was about to touch his skin.

Such a deadly strike was effortlessly dodged.

William's actions seemed effortless, without even a hint of exerting extra force, and this composed confidence gradually shifted Zed's mindset.

Zed prided himself as a god of death among men, but in front of William, he felt like nothing more than a jumping clown.

The less William retaliated, the more Zed feared that once he stopped attacking, William would strike.

"Is this fun for you?" William was already bored,this man was so weak that he couldn't be bothered to strike.

Knowing that this man must have been sent by Samuel to assassinate him.

"What do you want?" Zed finally couldn't bear the internal pressure and stabbed at William's chest again, asking the question.

"You came here to kill me, and yet you ask what I want?" William laughed, grabbed Zed's wrist, twisted his waist, and slammed Zed hard onto the ground.

Bang!

"Ah!!"

The ground cratered upon impact, and Zed could clearly hear the sound of his own bones breaking.

In that instant, his knife also ended up in William's hand.

Zed couldn't even begin to imagine how vast the difference in strength must be for the situation to have turned out like this.

His "Shadow Blades," notorious for claiming countless lives, where every slash was followed by the wails of lost souls, seemed nothing more than a toy in William's hands.

"You just don't understand!"

Ares's willingness to save the world stemmed from his moral upbringing and his faith in God. He was ready to step forward when humanity needed help, but he also knew that once someone's power reached a certain level, their mental state might change.

Just like some deities who never consider themselves part of the same species as humans. To them, humans and those Mutated creatures might as well be the same, indistinguishable. If humans were to be wiped out, it would just be part of the world's evolution, with no need to forcibly change anything.

Ares didn't know what William's thoughts were and dared not speculate. He finally told Samuel, "Perhaps Mr. Johnson is still willing to help humanity, but if you push too hard, it might only alienate him. With someone of his stature, it's best not to meddle too much."

From Samuel's perspective, if William was human, then helping humanity against the Mutated creatures at such a critical time should be a given. But hearing Ares's words, he could only nod in agreement.

Perhaps those truly powerful beings all have peculiar temperaments.

"Today's events must not be disclosed, not even reported. Pretend you saw nothing," Ares advised, leaving it up to Samuel to decide what to do next.

Samuel gradually calmed down and remembered that what he needed to do now was to immediately send a message to other powerful beings, urging them not to attack William.

Damn, even Ares treats him with utmost respect. If someone else foolishly attacks William, wouldn't they end up just like Zed?

"To all powerful beings, do not attack William! Please reply if received!"

Samuel chose to send a mass message. He didn't dare explain why, but simply warned them not to attack William, hoping that would be enough.

Zed struggled to his feet, dusting himself off, when his phone suddenly buzzed. He glanced at the message and immediately felt a surge of frustration.

"Damn it!"

Zed was immensely irritated. Why couldn't they have told him earlier?

Who was this William anyway? Terrifyingly powerful, and they expected them to take him down?

Top ten human powerhouses?

Even if they all teamed up, it seemed like he could knock them down one by one with just a flick of his finger.

He had forgotten that Samuel hadn't actually ordered him to attack, just to be prepared. The plan was to act against William only if there was suspicious activity or if Walker and Amy were confirmed dead.

Zed had simply wanted to prove his own strength, which is why he had attacked William.

Even if Samuel's message had arrived earlier, Zed probably would have tried his luck anyway, and the outcome wouldn't have been any different.
