Invincible! This person has lived for a billion years

Chapter 571 Could this lie be any more absurd?



Chapter 571 Could this lie be any more absurd?

At that moment, Dennis was genuinely terrified. Hearing William speak, he nodded repeatedly, offering all sorts of apologetic smiles.

Jacob, witnessing this, frowned and asked, "Dennis, who is he?"

Dennis didn't dare to speak out loud, only communicating with Osric through telepathy, "Great-grandfather, could he really be a disciple of the Sea God Poseidon? Should I still bet with him?"

William, of course, could intercept such telepathic communication. Dennis then heard his great-grandfather Osric telepathically respond, "Would a disciple of the Sea God Poseidon be of this strength? Think for yourself."

Dennis's eyes narrowed slightly, making a point.

So, this kid in front of him is impersonating a disciple of the Sea God Poseidon?

Such behavior is despised by almost everyone in the Divine Realm. Once they leave the Sacred Gem Exchange, even if Dennis were to slay him in the streets, nobody would say a word.

But Dennis was annoyed that William's crude acting had fooled him, even for a moment.

"You're called William, right?" Dennis took a deep breath, staring at William with a piercing gaze, his killing intent almost tangible, and asked through gritted teeth, "How do you want to bet?"

Such erratic changes in attitude baffled the onlookers.

Jacob didn't understand what Dennis meant.

Osric was nearly driven to a heart attack by these rapid shifts in attitude. Just moments ago, after seeing William's identity plaque, Dennis's demeanor had changed.

How did it switch back so quickly?

What on earth was this foolish child thinking?

Going mad?

And daring to harbor killing intent towards William?

Now, hearing the name William on the identity plaque, he thought of the Obliterator.

Considering the sword used by the lady next to him was the Sword of Soulbreaker, belonging to William the Obliterator, this William must indeed be the Obliterator himself!

"Didn't we agree to bet on whether this stone stool has something good inside?" William said, "Let's keep it small, just five thousand energy crystals."

This time, William had no intention of sharing the gambling proceeds with Alice. If he won, naturally, the winnings would be his. Although he considered Alice his wife, he believed it was essential to keep finances separate, after all, as a means to train Alice.

"Five thousand energy crystals? If we're going to bet, let's make it bigger, how about fifty thousand?" Dennis sneered, "But looking at your poor appearance, I'm afraid you can't produce that many energy crystals, can you?"

William appeared troubled, "Indeed, I don't have that many energy crystals on me..."

See!

A disciple of the Sea God Poseidon?

Fake!!

Confirmed!

Dennis's gaze shifted from William to Alice, asking, "Is she your wife?"

William nodded.

Dennis proposed, "Then let's bet her! If I lose, I'll hand over fifty thousand energy crystals with both hands. If you lose, she becomes my slave from now on, everything of hers is mine."

He wasn't foolish,he had noticed that the bracelet on Alice's wrist was quite special, and the little sword hanging from it seemed to have some background. But for a minor Mortal Deity, these items were most likely obtained through some extraordinary encounters.

He wasn't lecherous, but making William's wife his slave was also a way to insult William. If William lost, wouldn't everything Alice owns become his?

"That's not going to happen!" William waved his hand, "Bet if you must, but don't joke about my wife."

Alice felt comforted by these words.

Although she knew William couldn't lose, being used as a betting stake would still be somewhat uncomfortable.

"Then how do you want to bet?" Dennis sneered, "You're not thinking of betting your pathetic life with me, are you? Impersonating a disciple of the Sea God Poseidon, you're dead once you leave the Sacred Gem Exchange."

After saying this, he smiled at Alice, "Miss, your taste isn't very good, huh? This guy must have deceived you with that fake identity plaque, making you think he's a disciple of the Sea God Poseidon, and that's why you married him, right?"

"How about you follow me from now on? I promise to give you the best resources." Dennis had set his sights on Alice.

As for William, he was already considered a dead man in his eyes. The outcome of the gambling no longer mattered.

Alice was completely baffled...

What exactly was happening?

Why did this Dennis suddenly shift his attention to her?

But Alice wasn't one to back down in a performance. If William could act, so could she. With a tilt of her mouth, she said, "Well, if you can kill him, I'll go with you."

"Kill him? That's easy! But for now, I just want to play with him." Dennis's lips curled up. For a Nature Deity-level powerhouse to kill a Mortal Deity-level nobody, wasn't it as easy as lifting a finger?

Alice winked at William, saying, "Then you guys take your time... I'll watch..."

She suddenly realized a problem.

Had she really seen things wrongly?

She was aware that William had many magical tricks up his sleeve. If there really was something inside, it seemed it wouldn't be too difficult for William to make it disappear!

From what she knew of William, he was quite professional at tricking her. It was very likely he was up to no good now.

Now that Dennis had set his sights on William, let them fight it out. Knowing William's strength, she was not worried at all.

William raised an eyebrow at Alice, thinking how suddenly smart she had become.

And believe it or not, after Alice spoke, she actually found a rock to sit on, no longer choosing stones.

Seeing the atmosphere set like this, William straightforwardly pulled out a large energy gem and threw it on the ground, asking, "This stone should be worth fifty thousand energy crystals, right?"

Leander and Dennis, among others, stared at the energy gem William threw out, uncontrollably exclaiming, "Starlight Stone?"

"How do you have a Starlight Stone?" Dennis stared at the stone, unable to take his eyes off it.

The so-called Starlight Stone is filled with the energy of starlight, capable of absorbing and storing cosmic energy, including sunlight, moonlight, starlight, and even the power of lightning. This makes it a powerful energy source, providing immense energy support to its holder.

Strength?

Rumors had it that only Divine Alliance's Zeus possessed a Starlight Stone, and he was constantly using it to enhance his strength. Its value far exceeded fifty thousand energy crystals.

Millions, tens of millions, wouldn't be enough to measure its worth.

This object is comparable to the most top-tier divine artifacts, even high-ranking god-kings would fight over it upon seeing it.

And here William is, casually throwing it on the ground...

A Mortal Deity level?

Dennis's facial muscles twitched fiercely.

Damn, was this guy deliberately pretending to be weak, toying with him?

But his great-grandfather had telepathically mentioned that this person wasn't a disciple of the Sea God Poseidon...

Then... if he isn't a disciple of the Sea God Poseidon, how could he possibly have such an item?

Don't tell me he stole it from Zeus.

Damn!!

Dennis was now numbed by the constantly shifting analysis of William's true identity.

Seeing the shocked expressions of everyone, William said, "It seems it's quite valuable after all. This is just a stone I picked up casually in a ditch."

...

Dennis and Jacob looked at William expressionlessly.

Damn, could you come up with a more believable reason, please!

A stone picked up casually in a ditch?

Is this the kind of gem you can just find anywhere?

Could this lie be any more absurd?
