Chapter 350 The Day I Emerge from Seclusion Shall Be a Shocking One
Next to the hot spring pool in the rear mountains of Ocean Guild, there was a cave where the spiritual energy was even denser than outside. It was the place where Nikita, the founding master of Ocean Guild, secluded himself in the past.
William placed the bear's paw, along with other substances that aided in training, such as wild fruits and spiritual water, into the cave. There were also numerous valuable pills and medicinal materials he had temporarily acquired, filling the entire cave.
Before entering seclusion, William instructed a few members of Ocean Guild, saying, "While I am in seclusion, keep an eye on Ryan's movements and focus on defense. Block all access to the mountain."
"Rest assured, Master. We will defend with our lives until you emerge," Hadley, Fitch, and others responded, their words filled with determination.
"I leave this place in your hands." After nodding, William walked directly into the cave. The cave had fluorescent stones on its cliff walls, so it wasn't completely dark.
Once inside, William closed the cave's stone door. The door was thirty centimeters thick, and ordinary people couldn't break in, not even with explosives.
William walked to the innermost part of the cave and glanced at the pile of items that filled the space.
The fruits and medicinal herbs in the cave, William sighed bitterly to himself. "I wonder if these will be enough to eat. I hope finishing them will allow me to break through!" This time, William was going all out. Without reaching the Silver Level in training, he couldn't possibly defeat Ryan. With this in mind, William ate the fruits and medicinal herbs hungrily. After filling his stomach, he began to focus on his training. It was unknown how long it would take for him to break through this time, but once he did, it would surely be a shocking event, making him a legendary figure like Nikita, leaving behind a lasting legacy in the world.
Outside the cave, six Grandmaster-level members of the Ocean Guild took turns standing guard, preventing anyone from attacking William. Protecting William until he broke through was the most important task for the Ocean Guild.
At the same time, deep within a dense forest on the outskirts of the West District, Ryan woke up from his focused training. Immediately, a dark figure jumped down from a tree and reported, "Ryan, we have investigated the young man who suddenly appeared in the Ocean Guild. His name is William Brown, a poor person from a poverty-stricken area."
"A poor person from a poverty-stricken area? How is it possible for someone with his level of strength to be poor?" Ryan snorted coldly and then inquired further, "What other information do we have about him?"
"We have gathered a lot of information about him, including his school and hometown. We confirmed that he was born in a poverty-stricken area, and just a year ago, he was ordinary. But now, his strength has become terrifying," the dark-clothed person reported truthfully.
He was the leader of The Earth division named Fennis, skilled in gathering information. The Earth had spies in various organizations, so it was easy to find out William's personal information.
"Are you saying that a year ago, he was an ordinary person, but now his strength has increased to such an extent?" A hint of shock flashed in Ryan's eyes. This growth rate was too astonishing. Even Nikita didn't have such a monstrous speed of improvement.
"Yes, furthermore, I found that he doesn't possess any wealth, which is why I referred to him as poor," the person further reported.
"It seems like he intentionally conceals his identity and is extremely cautious in his actions," Ryan furrowed his brows suddenly. Deep inside, he felt a strong sense of crisis towards this sudden emergence of William, something he had never felt before, not even when facing Lionel.
Within just a year of training, his strength had already caught up with someone who had trained for over forty years. If given another year, this person might be able to crush him with just a flick of the finger.
"It looks like we need to eliminate him as soon as possible. Otherwise, if we keep dragging this on, we're just slowly dying," Ryan saw the situation before him clearly. They must act quickly to kill William; otherwise, when his strength...
When he reached a level where even Ryan himself was no match for him, not only was the position of master out of reach, but his life might also be in danger. "Does he have any weaknesses or people he cares about?" Ryan's thoughts quickly turned. Since he couldn't match him in strength, he could only find his weaknesses to trap him. "He has a girlfriend he has been pursuing since college, named Michelle Wilson. However, he sent her to Euler Hill for protection a few days ago," the man answered.
"So, William is not ordinary, huh? Knowing that we have The Earth, he will sooner or later investigate the people around him. He actually took the initiative to protect them. It's hard to know what to say when facing someone like him," Ryan sighed suddenly, amazed by William's unexpected caution and capabilities. "William is indeed extraordinary, acting quietly and cautiously, but he overlooked one thing this time," the man spoke up again.
"Oh? Explain," Ryan's eyes suddenly brightened, becoming interested.
"His girlfriend has a close friend on Long Island named Julia. And this time, when Michelle went to Euler Hill, Julia went with her. Julia's father is planning to arrange a marriage for her within the influence of the Denckman family. We can start with her family, lure them out of Euler Hill, and then use Michelle to threaten William," Fennis explained skillfully.
"Not bad, not bad. You go ahead and handle this matter," Ryan nodded, approving of Fennis' plan.
After Fennis left, another figure quietly emerged from behind a big tree. Without even lifting his head, Ryan straightforwardly asked, "Did you gather any useful information from Ocean Guild?" "The old master is dead, and the new master is that person named William," Dean said calmly, appearing quite mysterious. "He actually passed on the position to a newcomer," Ryan was slightly surprised, but quickly understood.
At present, the only one in Ocean Guild who could contend with him was this William, so it was within his expectations to pass it on to him. "In addition, during my investigation, I discovered a secret," Dean continued. "What secret?" Ryan inquired. "It seems like William is in seclusion. There are six members of Ocean Guild taking turns guarding, and they have also blocked all the paths up the mountain," Dean's words surprised Ryan, but soon a hint of excitement appeared on his face. "This is a heaven-sent opportunity to capture Ocean Guild. However, to be safe, let's wait until we capture that girl," Ryan's eyes revealed a hint of madness.
