Chapter 364: When the Supreme Beings want to do something, the human race can’t stop them
Upon hearing Thor’s words, Professor Gregory immediately replied, “Where are you?”
Mike answered truthfully, “Wolf’s Den.”
“Stay there, I’ll be right over.”
Putting away his Trade Secret Realm pass, Professor Gregory walked onto the deck.
The 15th floor was a nautical and adventure challenge where Mike had previously dealt with mermaids.
Professor Gregory’s first mate was Landy, known as the “Undying Enforcer,” a cursed, immortal being.
Even after spending only a few hours together, Landy was filled with awe and respect for the old man named Gregory.
Seeing Gregory approaching, Landy said respectfully, “Professor, we’ll soon locate the sea monster.”
“No need to search anymore,” Gregory shook his head. “We’re out of time, the plan has changed.”
With that, Gregory walked towards the edge of the deck and stepped directly onto the waves.
“Professor, be careful!”
Before Landy could finish his exclamation, Gregory’s figure vanished.
…
Back in the Wolf’s Den, Mike waited and waited, but Professor Gregory didn’t show up.
During this time, he felt the need to do something to calm himself down.
Mike walked up to the bar and said to Nyx Valoria, “Excuse me, anything free? Give me some of everything.”
Nyx Valoria said seriously, “Fourth Bro, Little Calderon gave specific instructions not to put Thor’s bill on his tab.”
“Yeah, I heard.”
Mike nodded, a hint of confusion in his tone.
“But what does Thor’s tab have to do with me?”
“Are you saying… you think I’m Thor?!”
Mike became agitated.
“How dare you accuse me falsely! I’ll sue you for slander! You are slandering me!”
Nyx Valoria: …
Don’t you know if you’re Thor or not?
However, since he had said so, Nyx Valoria decided it wasn’t a big deal.
She instructed someone to bring out the things that had been prepared beforehand, along with two cases of good wine.
Just then, Professor Gregory walked into the Wolf’s Den. His silver-white hair was particularly eye-catching, and many people recognized him, standing up to greet him.
Mike put away the two cases of wine and instructed, “Lend me the key to Maxen’s office, and two cups of coffee, please.”
“No need, come to my office.”
Follow new episodes on the "N0vel1st.c0m".
Gregory didn’t waste any words and directly led Mike to the back.
As they walked, Professor Gregory explained, “My office is more secure for confidential matters.”
Good point, Mike nodded slightly. He should get one for himself when he had the chance.
“The annual rent isn’t cheap.”
Gregory’s words instantly dispelled Mike’s idea.
Professor Gregory’s office had bookshelves lining two walls, with only a small desk and a pile of folding chairs.
Mike wasn’t picky and casually grabbed a folding chair, sitting opposite Professor Gregory.
After explaining his conjecture to Professor Gregory, Mike added, “I don’t know if I’m right or not.”
“That’s easy.”
Professor Gregory took out his Trade Secret Realm pass and dialed a number.
“Foreskin, Ace told us everything…”
Mike: ?!
The older, the wiser.
Ace, Foreskin, and Afterskin probably all knew about this.
On the other side, Foreskin readily admitted, “Professor Gregory, it’s not that I didn’t want to tell him. It’s just that my boss didn’t give me any instructions, and Shadow Nine was keeping it a secret, so it was really inconvenient for me…”
“I understand.”
Gregory understood the relationships between the older generation better than Mike.
No matter who told Thor about this, Shadow Nine would hold it against them.
After returning from the Supreme Abyssal, Shadow Nine would come knocking for payback.
Only Ace was suitable to take the blame!
After listening to Foreskin, Gregory hung up the call.
Inside the office, both of them fell silent.
Sigil, Crest, Heart.
These three things, combined, formed the true Supreme Mark.
“The skill [Charge Up], is it part of the Supreme Mark?”
Mike thought for a moment and found this explanation acceptable.
He had checked a lot of information before and found no mention of Charge Up anywhere.
“The question is… when did the [Supreme Mark Crest] come into my possession?”
Mike couldn’t recall any relevant details.
“Don’t dwell on it if you can’t figure it out.”
Gregory was very open-minded. “Supreme Beings chose to give you the Supreme Mark Crest. The [Supreme Mark Heart] is still in Apollo’s hands, that’s probably what Shadow Nine needs the most.”
At this point, Mike suddenly became curious about something.
“Professor Gregory, since we’re so close…”
Gregory chuckled. “You call wearing a mask and chatting ‘close’?”
Mike nodded shamelessly.
“Yeah, I usually wear two masks when talking to other people!”
Gregory: …
Mike’s words almost made the eight-hundred-year-old grandpa feel emo.
“Alright, go on.”
Mike organized his words and asked, “A month ago, when I first awakened my talent, Apollo should have given me the [Supreme Mark Crest] around that time.”
Gregory nodded. “Yes.”
That was Apollo’s style.
If Apollo felt something needed to be done, he would do it immediately.
“I remember there was quite a commotion back then.”
Mike asked tentatively, “What if, I’m just saying, what if… what if I were a person with evil intentions, like a villain in a novel? Wouldn’t the stronger I become, the worse it would be for the human race? Or, without any assessment of my character, why would you treat me so well?”
“You’ve been reading webnovels in class again, haven’t you?”
Gregory smiled helplessly. “Pay attention in class, don’t read novels, focus on your studies.”
After that, Gregory answered Mike’s question.
“There’s no such thing as good or bad without reason. The human race needs you, but you don’t necessarily need the human race. That’s the first layer of the relationship.”
Mike nodded, he understood this.
The human race indeed needed fourth Supreme Being.
And if Mike wanted to become a Supreme Being, he could completely abandon the human race, reach level 1000 directly, and then find a way to leave, without caring about the conflict between the human race and the demon race.
If he was selfish, with Mike’s abilities, he could definitely do it.
“The second layer, the various measures taken for the emergence of a potential Supreme Being, what you call ‘treating you so well,’ are strategies formulated by the Supreme Beings.”
Gregory explained, “When the Supreme Beings want to do something, the human race can’t stop them.”
Mike understood this as well.
“Actually, many powerhouses have expressed the same concern as you.”
Gregory smiled and said helplessly, “Protests are futile.”
When a Supreme Being used their veto power, it was truly a veto.
Gregory continued to explain, “Actually, it was mainly Morpheus and Shadow Nine’s idea. Ares didn’t express any opposition, and Apollo didn’t care at all.”
Got it, Mike nodded. Morpheus voted in favor, Ares abstained, Apollo was absent, and that’s how it was decided.
However, the involvement of Shadow Nine made it seem a bit out of place.
“Since you asked today, let me check the original meeting minutes.”
Professor Gregory retrieved a file from the filing cabinet.
“Found it, Morpheus’s original words were…”
As Gregory described it, Mike seemed to see a man overriding all objections, making a decision that determined the human race’s future attitude and measures towards potential Supreme Beings.
Morpheus had said, “We don’t know what kind of people future potential Supreme Beings will be. But that doesn’t stop us from treating them as good people first.”
