Invincible! This person has lived for a billion years

In the conference room at Arcane Village base, William and the others entered a high-tech meeting room under Samuel's lead.

"Feel free to sit there and listen in," Samuel pointed to a row of chairs behind the long table, "If you have any opinions, you're welcto share them freely, don't hold back."

Walker's expression was sour; they didn't have official seats, just side ones—what right did they have to offer opinions?

In reality, even though he was transferred here, he held no official position, was unfamiliar with the place, and had nothing much to say. Samuel bringing him along today was just to familiarize his face with the others.

Samuel's invitation was clearly just a formality,they had no real say.

"Mr. Johnson, can I stay here and play for a few days before going back?" Amy, sitting next to William, asked in a pitiful low voice.

William responded, "Walker can't beat you, and if you don't want to leave, who could possibly drag you away?"

Walker glared at William with wide eyes: "…"

"It does seem that way," Amy considered, looking at Walker, and decided it was true.

Since she was out, she might as well enjoy herself.

The big dogs outside the city were so well-behaved,she'd go feed them sbones later.

Samuel, overhearing William and Amy's conversation, kept silent. Amy had a special status,unless Steven cto pick her up, he couldn't really interfere.

From what he knew, New York City had many powerful Shapeshifters on the side of humans, and in terms of combat power, it was definitely the strongest among all bases, so it was unlikely to fall.

Ten minutes later, the conference room was filled with people.

"Everyone's here. Previously, we discussed the proposal for the new city experiment site construction. Does anyone have anything to say?" Samuel sat in the center, fingers interlaced, his gaze slowly sweeping over everyone in the room.

"Commander Samuel, what opinions could we possibly have? Militarized management, building underground cities, centralizing resources, always ready for battle," a middle-aged man in black battle armor lifted his eyelids, his tone harsh, "In these critical times, how else should we construct this new city?"

Samuel's fingers rhythmically tapped on the desk, and the atmosphere in the meeting room grew tense.

"Does anyone else have something to say?"

Although Samuel was appointed as the highest commander of the base, establishing the "New City" wasn't a decision he could make alone.

Today's meeting content still needed to be reported to Washington, where the SuprCommander of the Human Alliance would then call an alliance meeting to discuss and decide.

"Commander Samuel, given the current apocalyptic situation, we believe there's no need to waste more manpower and resources to rescue ordinary people," a man with a scarred face said. "Humanity needs to continue to survive. The Mutated creatures outside are evolving too quickly. We can use the newly developed Annihilation Bomb to attack them."

"At the stime, we need to seal off the base!" another grim-faced young man added. "This is the ultimate fortress, a level five base. If we seal off the base, no Mutated creature can break in, and we won't need to listen to Washington's orders anymore. Why bother building a new city? Isn't surviving hard enough?"

As these two spoke, more bizarre opinions surfaced.

"We must build the underground city quickly and move the ordinary people in!"

"Why should those ordinary people do nothing and still enjoy food and resources?"

"I think we can separate the awakened superhumans from ordinary people. For the continuation of humanity, the superhumans with awakened abilities should reproduce among themselves. As for ordinary people... to save more resources, we should limit their reproduction as much as possible."

...

Samuel's position here was merely that of the highest commander!

The highest commander of the Arcane Village base!

The matter of establishing a model new city was a directive from Washington, which Samuel had brought up three days ago, asking the senior leaders of the Arcane Village base to think it over and then make suggestions.

The first speaker was relatively reasonable, but the rest of the comments were increasingly outrageous!

William could see that human nature ultimately couldn't withstand the test.

Not everyone was like Walker, who, in these chaotic times, gained great power and thought of saving more civilians, saving the world.

The comments from the others clearly aimed to close off the Arcane Village base and categorize people into different classes.

No, no, no!

This was no longer treating ordinary people as human beings.

As for building the underground city...

William thought that if they really did as they suggested, the Arcane Village base might indeed survive.

But those ordinary people would becnothing more than slaves ...

Over time, the descendants of ordinary people would beca permanent lower class, while the descendants of superhumans would becnatural-born nobles.

Class distinctions would becincreasingly pronounced.

Similarly, the Arcane Village base would beca closed, isolated city, existing solely for "the propagation of humanity." Saving the world would have nothing to do with this city.

Samuel's expression grew darker, but a smile appeared on William's face.

He probably knew what kind of ideals Samuel and Walker shared, but every great dream inevitably faces obstacles.

In specific times and environments, spowerful individuals prefer to beca privileged class.

"What the hell are you all spouting?" Walker finally couldn't hold back anymore. He stood up furiously and started cursing, pointing at the guy who suggested limiting the reproduction of ordinary people, his spit flying, "Bastard! With that ugly mug of yours, you want to limit others' reproduction? What do you mean by 'ordinary people'? You, a mere B-level superhuman, are just an ordinary person in my eyes! You're worse than a dog!"

The man with the gold-rimmed glasses, Specky, turned cold and glanced at Walker, then asked Samuel, "Samuel, who is this guy? Why does he have the right to sit here?"

Samuel suddenly stood up, and in the next moment, he was in front of Specky, slapping him across the face and sending him flying into the wall.

"How dare you speak tolike that? I specifically transferred Walker here from the New York base. Your earlier remarks were truly worse than a dog's."

After cursing a bit, Samuel's gaze swept over the others present, and he sneered, "So you want to create a special class, treating ordinary people like slaves, like dogs, is that it?"

"Commander Samuel, that's not what we meant. Aren't we all just trying to ensure the better survival and propagation of humanity?"

Scarface's voice was very low,they had almost forgotten that this usually amiable Commander Samuel was an S-level powerhouse.

"Propagation? You are abandoning the world, engaging in acts that would destroy our race!" Samuel shouted loudly, "We are humans! Those without awakened abilities are our kin, we are all humans!"

"Humanity is indeed facing a huge crisis right now, but these crises are not insurmountable!" Samuel gritted his teeth, "I don't want to hear any more talk of dividing classes. In these apocalyptic times, when the survival of humanity is at stake, we must unite and work together to overcthese challenges!"
