Chapter 315 Survive These Next Few Days
"Exactly, not very powerful, but quite the temper."
"We don\'t need your protection! Since it\'s come to this, whatever we do from now on, you have no right to intervene."
...
Even Darius scoffed, "The 13th Bureau only has Zoey with her Warrior God Constitution to boast about. The rest are just freeloading. Do they really think they\'re that important?"
Wes remained silent, but Jayce\'s face changed dramatically. He quickly reprimanded Darius, "Darius, what are you saying? Apologize to Deputy Director Wenzel right now!"
"Apologize? For what? I\'m just stating the truth!" Darius, already at the peak of intermediate Soulmancer strength and thus slightly more powerful than Wes, didn\'t regard Wes highly.
In his view, even if Zoey were to come to Texas, she would need to keep a low profile, as every family had someone at the "Quasi-Deity" level.
Wes waved his hand dismissively, "No need for apologies! What I said represents the entire 13th Bureau. That\'s all, gentlemen, I take my leave."
With that, he turned and left.
Jayce called out anxiously, "Deputy Director Wenzel! Does Mr. Steven know about this decision you\'ve made? Have you got approval from your senior leadership?"
Wes didn\'t turn back, "Everything said here has already been transmitted to the entire 13th Bureau. Steven has retired, and now I make the decisions! I also believe that the senior leadership of the 13th Bureau will have no objections to my decision!"
After saying this, he walked straight out.
Jayce watched Wes\'s departing figure, fists clenched, the corners of his eyes twitching. His gaze swept over the others, and he asked through gritted teeth, "Have you all lost your minds? Without the protection of the 13th Bureau, how will we stand in the world of Soulmancers?"
Darius spoke disdainfully, "When did we ever need their protection?"
Jayce let out a long sigh, sat down on a chair, and with a single slap, shattered the solid wood table beside him, angrily exclaiming, "Do you really not understand the gravity of what you\'ve done?"
Everyone in the Forgotten Guardian Temple looked at Jayce, unsure of what he meant.
In their memory, it seemed that their Texas Soulmancer families, united, formed a strong collective and never needed the protection of the 13th Bureau.
Jayce, with a complex expression, said, "If I\'m not mistaken, everything we\'ve just said and done was recorded by cameras. Our words just now have offended everyone in the entire 13th Bureau!"
Darius, still not understanding the severity, laughed, "So what if we\'ve offended them? If we don\'t interact with them anymore, and they don\'t bother with us, isn\'t that better?"
"Better? Indeed, very good! The 13th Bureau has many Soulmancers trained by large Soulmancer organizations. Although most are not core members, your words have offended all those large Soulmancer organizations," Jayce said with a bitter laugh. "With one sentence, you\'ve offended the entire Soulmancer world. Quite impressive!"
Darius\'s smile froze on his face. He had just said that the 13th Bureau only had Zoey with her Warrior God Constitution worth mentioning, and the rest were just freeloaders.
Wasn\'t that implying that all the Soulmancers trained by those large organizations were worthless?
"Not just that," Jayce continued, "you should know that even practitioners of dark forces must register with the 13th Bureau and are considered their allies. Now you\'ve offended everyone, and without the 13th Bureau\'s rules to follow, the Texas Soulmancers will only live by one principle outside — the strong prevail!" Jayce said this and glared fiercely at Darius, asking, "Do you think our Texas Soulmancers are invincible in the whole world?"
Many practitioners of dark forces were also allies of the 13th Bureau, and they still publicly followed the Bureau\'s rules, at least not daring to act too recklessly.
But with Wes declaring that Texas no longer accepts their protection, wouldn\'t those dark force practitioners be eyeing the forgotten Soulmancers of Texas?
The whole Soulmancer world would turn its attention to them, and no one would show mercy out of legal concerns.
Perhaps in just a short while, a large number of dark force practitioners were already heading towards Texas.
Their families indeed had "Quasi-Deity" level masters, but those masters were mostly detached from worldly affairs, deeply engrossed in enhancing their abilities. Besides, there was an agreement among Soulmancers above the intermediate level not to intervene lightly, as their involvement could have far-reaching consequences.
Under these circumstances, unless they all stayed within their own territories in Texas, survival would indeed be difficult.
"The matter has come to this point. Since we\'ve decided to seek revenge against Alice, let\'s set off now!" Jayce took a deep breath and said, "Let\'s stop playing mind games with each other. That woman Alice must have obtained some heaven-defying magical artifact. Each family should send either one senior Soulmancer or three intermediate-level Soulmancer experts to New York. We\'ll kill, loot, and then immediately return. Make sure not to get separated!"
"The treasures we seize will be distributed after we return!" Jayce could no longer afford to hesitate; they had to take this risk.
A group of experts going to kill an intermediate Soulmancer shouldn\'t possibly fail.
Moreover, traveling as a group would avoid being ambushed along the way.
A quick battle and quick return, and they would be back within two days. After all, Texas still had the protection of the "Quasi-Deities" from each family. As long as they didn\'t venture out, their lives wouldn\'t be in danger.
...
After returning from Bella\'s friend\'s wedding, William found that Alice was still there. He had seen the video sent by Wes. He was going to forward it to Alice, but she had already received it. It seemed this video was not just sent to the 13th Bureau\'s employees but to all registered Soulmancers.
"Master, are they planning to kill me? What should I do?" Alice, still unaccustomed to such matters, was surprised that someone would want to obliterate her.
William, now watching anime, didn\'t lift his head and said, "Either wait for them to come and kill you, or go find them and eliminate them all."
"Um... eliminate them all?" Alice said uncomfortably, "I don\'t like killing people."
William replied, "That\'s your problem. My superpowers are gone, so I can\'t unlock the Sword Spirit\'s seal for you."
"..."
He\'s saying again that his superpowers have disappeared.
Is this what he refers to as the state of his superpowers disappearing?
This cut off her reliance and also implied that William wouldn\'t intervene on her behalf,she would have to rely on herself.
"They won\'t target my family, will they?" Alice suddenly realized this issue.
"Call Zoey. Under these circumstances, you can request protection for your family. And... they probably think you have something valuable and want to kill you for loot. They likely won\'t harm your family," William said, still watching his anime. "They can\'t afford to stay outside for long now. It\'ll be just these two days at most. You just need to survive it."
