Chapter 751 Do octopuses have ears?
After William and the others entered the room, Walker straightforwardly announced, “I’m living here now too.”
The base’s dormitory was originally designed for single occupancy, with just one bedroom, though it did have a kitchen and bathroom. Housing three people would definitely be cramped.
William wasn’t keen on sharing a bed with other men. He actually preferred his yard in New York, where he could enjoy the sun, read books, and sip tea comfortably.
It wasn’t that he had high standards,it was more about lifestyle habits. Like those wealthy heirs who think spending thousands of dollars on a piece of clothing is normal because, to them, that’s just everyday life, not extravagance.
Of course, William could adapt to any environment.
“You’re the head of the inspection team now, find your own place,” William said. “The bedroom is Amy’s,I sleep on the couch.”
William just needed a place to stay. Before Amy went to New York, he had given her the bedroom.
However, William wasn’t actually going to sleep on the couch. When it was time to sleep, he would teleport back to his big bed in his New York yard.
Wasn’t that much better?
Walker didn’t argue with William or ask him anything further. Instead, he asked, “Are you planning to stay here long?”
“Stay for a while. After all, resisting mutated creatures is the same anywhere, isn’t it?”
“That’s true. Well, you rest up. I’m going to check on the inspection team and find some more hands.”
When Walker was in New York, he had some people under him, but after coming to Arcane Village, it wasn’t appropriate to transfer people from New York. Now that he has decided to be the captain of the inspection team, what he needs to do is to perform his duties well.
With his current abilities, it seemed he didn’t even need to sleep. Whether or not he had a place to stay didn’t really matter to him.
“Go ahead!” William was waiting for Walker to leave so he could cook.
If Walker tasted his cooking, he might never leave, and that would be problematic.
Over the years, William had encountered too many freeloaders.
As Walker reached the door, he turned and gave William a deep look.
He had overheard the conversation between Samuel and the big-bearded man in the next room.
Separated by just a wall, and with poor soundproofing, it was impossible for a Soulmancer like Walker not to overhear.
Samuel and the bearded man might as well have been speaking directly in front of them.
After hearing their conversation, Walker naturally started to wonder, was William really that formidable?
It seemed entirely possible!
Upon reflection, William did have many secrets.
But Walker didn’t ask further,he simply closed the door and left.
As Samuel had said, as long as William was on the side of humanity, what did it matter what kind of being he was?
Walker, though a bit blunt in his actions, chose not to reveal what he knew.
“Mr. Johnson, are you about to cook?” Amy asked, clutching her sword and sitting on the couch, her eyes sparkling brightly.
“What would you like to eat?” William asked. Amy had watched him while he wrote the comprehensive global Mutated creature cookbook.
Although she was only ten, her memory was much better than other children’s. She had learned almost all the English words and could understand the text in the cookbook.
“Can it be anything?” Amy asked tentatively.
“Of course!” William never skimped when it came to preparing food.
“How about…Blue-Striped Devil Octopus… sashimi?” Amy pondered for a moment, almost drooling at the thought.
She was referring to the Blue-Striped Devil Octopus sashimi that William had written about.
Sashimi typically involves slicing fresh fish or shellfish and eating it raw with condiments.
But the Blue-Striped Devil Octopus sashimi William mentioned was made from a giant mutated octopus.
“Sure, I’d like to try that too,” William said. “Wait here, I’ll be right back.”
With that, William walked into the bedroom and closed the door behind him.
The next moment, he appeared in the deep waters of the Pacific Ocean.
A massive mutated octopus lazily floated in the water, its genetics mutated to be many times stronger and its brain significantly smarter.
Previously dull and sluggish, the octopus had suddenly awakened its spiritual intelligence, even developing a consciousness that allowed it to scan its surroundings in a complete 360-degree sweep without any blind spots.
It now felt invincible in this part of the ocean.
With a body mass of 550,000 short tons and regenerative abilities similar to those of the Tempest Jellyfish, who could possibly kill it?
Suddenly, it felt a slight pain in one of its tentacles…
Why would it hurt?
Hmm?
It seemed like a small section of a tentacle was missing.
When it extended its consciousness to investigate, it found nothing.
William didn’t need much,just the tips of the tentacles from the Blue-Striped Devil Octopus, enough for him and Amy. There was no need to kill the entire octopus.
The Blue-Striped Devil Octopus observed its minor wound with its consciousness. The injury was small, akin to a human being nicked by a sharp blade of grass, insignificant given its massive size.
Finding nothing amiss, it continued to lazily drift through the ocean.
William had been in the bedroom for barely a minute before he reappeared, seemingly by magic, holding a piece of smooth, plump meat.
Some people might find the sight of octopus meat repulsive.
Amy was one of those people. Having barely eaten seafood in her life, she shivered involuntarily at the sight of the translucent octopus meat with vivid blue stripes in William’s hand and asked, “What is this? Can you really eat it?”
“Didn’t you say you wanted to try octopus sashimi?”
“Is this really octopus? With such bright blue stripes? Isn’t it poisonous?”
Amy knows many words, but the sea god Poseidon taught her more about powerful secret techniques. As for octopuses in nature, she actually doesn’t know what they are.
As for the Blue-Striped Devil Octopus, she only knew it from William’s cookbook, which mentioned that its meat made delicious sashimi.
“Do you not know what an octopus is?” William asked.
Amy looked at William with confusion, “Aren’t octopuses supposed to be as cute as rabbits?”
“No!”
“Do octopuses eat carrots?”
Uh!!
William realized that communicating with naive children could be really challenging.
“Are you going to eat the octopus sashimi or not?”
“Yes!” Amy said, “Do octopuses have ears?”
“If you keep asking these kinds of questions, I’ll make you rat meat instead.” William, holding the octopus meat, went to the kitchen to start slicing.
Sashimi is one of the simplest dishes to prepare.
Especially with such a large octopus.
After slicing, all it needed was a dab of wasabi and soy sauce to be delicious.
The piece of Blue-Striped Devil Octopus tentacle tip that William had chosen was non-toxic, so it was safe to eat.
However…
William glanced at Amy standing beside him, wrapped a thin slice of octopus sashimi around a dollop of wasabi, and said to Amy, “Open your mouth! I’ll feed you.”
Amy opened her mouth with some anticipation, “Ah~~”
William then stuffed the wasabi… and the slice of octopus sashimi into Amy’s mouth…
