"No one knows more about super powers than me!"
After a few words, Bob got excited and started talking loudly in the house: "Mr. Morton, I know you are a superpower. I hope you can work for our Capitalist Profit Protection Union!"
"Don't worry, I will give you any benefits, money, power, beauty, as long as you want, you can have it at any time!"
"And all this requires is for you to work for us, that's all!"
"You've got the wrong person. I'm not that person." Morton shook his head.
"No, you are!"
Bob was very excited: "I told you, no one knows more about superpowers than me. Although your ancestors were from the Kingdom of the Sun, you are now a citizen of our Kingdom of Eagles."
"I know that you want to live in seclusion and not care about worldly affairs. In fact, you have been doing so all these years."
"But our Eagle Country is in danger. Those Chinese have unexpectedly produced people with super powers, and they are working for the government!"
"We need you, my friend, we really need you!"
"What?"
Morton was surprised: "There is a person with super powers in China?!"
"This isn't right. I should be the only one with super powers in this world!"
In his surprise, he even stopped hiding his identity.
Bob became even more excited: "Look, Mr. Moulton, I told you I know you very well..."
"And I'm not lying. China does have a superpowered person, and there's not even one of them, so we need your help!"
"Okay, I'll help you!"
Morton nodded directly.
"The reason why I have been staying here and not using my abilities anymore is because I have never found any other people with super powers in the world."
"I didn't expect that China still has..."
"Then my existence has meaning."
Upon hearing this, Bob was so excited that he almost had a cerebral hemorrhage.
"Mr. Morton, you mean that before this, you were the only person with super powers in the world?!"
“That’s right!”
Morton nodded, full of confidence and pride: "As a descendant of the Paladin, I can be sure of this!"
"That's why I've been living in seclusion, but I didn't expect that another person with super powers would appear, so that's when I can put my skills to good use!"
"Wait a moment!"
Without waiting for Bob and the others to say anything, Morton turned and went into the inner room. Not long after, he came out wearing silver sacred armor, holding a broadsword and a round shield in his hands. He looked extremely majestic, just like the reincarnation of the sword god in Western mythology!
Especially when Morton suddenly took a step forward, his armor was surrounded by "holy light", which looked amazing and sacred.
“That’s so cool!”
Bob exclaimed: "Mr. Morton, you look very powerful. You can definitely help us get through this difficult time and resist those super-powered people!"
"Of course!"
Morton spoke, and after putting on the armor, even his tone of voice became more 'official'.
"My sword can cut through all obstacles, my holy light can dispel endless darkness! My round shield can block all attacks..."
"My armor makes me look like a god!"
As he spoke, the greatsword and round shield began to glow, appearing even more astonishing.
but…
William suddenly thought of a question and said, "Mr. Morton, please forgive me for being direct, because I have been learning about people and things related to superpowers during this period, so I have heard a lot of stories."
"Based on what you just said, I'm curious, what would happen if I used your sword to chop your shield?"
"In China, this is called the story of the spear and the shield."
Bob: “…???”
Morton: “…”
The holy light all over his body flickered for a while, and after a while he said depressedly: "This kind of thing will never happen!"
“These are things passed down from my ancestors.”
"You know what? I'm already one hundred and twenty-three years old. The question you ask will never come true!"
Morton wanted to curse.
Damn it, what kind of question is this
Can't you see that I'm showing off? Your question is embarrassing me, okay
"William!"
Bob also rolled his eyes: "What are you talking about?!"
"This kind of problem should never have happened. Mr. Morton can definitely help us deal with those immortal cultivators in China, so that we don't have to be troubled by China anymore."
"Yes, yes, yes."
William also knew that he had asked a stupid question, and nodded repeatedly.
But at this moment, Morton's face suddenly changed, and the holy light all over his body began to flicker and flash rapidly: "What did you just say? Immortal cultivator?!"
"Yes." Bob was stunned: "Aren't the superpowers in China called immortal cultivators? This is their own name."
"But we are more accustomed to calling them superpowers or superhumans. Of course, super man is also fine."
Morton's expression suddenly became even uglier: "Are you sure you are a cultivator and not some other superpowered person?"
"Sure!"
“This is impossible!”
Morton exclaimed: "Immortal cultivators have ceased to exist over a thousand years ago, and there will never be any more immortal cultivators!"
"That's absolutely impossible!"
"But... we have his video, and the Chinese Ministry of Residents' Happiness and Life has also personally admitted that he is a cultivator. How about I show you the video?"
Bob was a little confused. What happened to the immortal cultivator
We are all superpowered, what does your expression mean? !
And with your glowing, muscular body, you look much more powerful than those immortal cultivators, right?!
"show me!"
Bob pulled out his phone...
After thinking about it, he decided to show Morton the most classic "battle" of the immortal cultivators, which was the video of the meteorite explosion.
This video has already spread all over the world and can be easily viewed by searching on the Internet.
Then…
Morton watched the scene in the video. When that figure blew up meteorites one after another, and finally smashed half of it with his bare hands, and then punched into nothingness, his face turned pale!
Even his legs were trembling slightly, and the holy light on his body had completely disappeared without a trace...
"Mr. Morton, that's him. The people from the Chinese Residents' Happiness and Life Department said he is a cultivator. That shouldn't be wrong, right?"
"Let's go!"
Morton's face turned pale and he started to chase people away.
Bob, William and others were stunned: "Mr. Moulton?!"
"I'll let you go!"
Morton's face turned from white to green, and then from green to black...
At this moment, he wanted to curse!
Damn it!
I am a descendant of a Paladin, not a real Paladin, just a descendant, and the last descendant...
Even though I have super powers and equipment left by my ancestors, the most I can do is bully ordinary people with super powers, okay?!
You guys are great!
As soon as he opened his mouth, he asked me to fight against the immortal cultivators!!!
And he is an immortal cultivator who can blow up such a huge meteorite with one punch, holy shit!
Are you crazy?!
Are you really here to ask me to come out and help? Are you here to "ask the ancestors to die"
Fuck!
Morton still has some tricks.
How much strength do you have? Don’t you have any idea of it
When fighting with ordinary people with super powers, he himself has super powers, and with the advantage of equipment, he is definitely a "God of War" who can punish everything.
But are immortal cultivators people with super powers? !
Here, we have to popularize a concept.
The superpowers and special abilities that people often talk about are actually a kind of "precious ability" that comes with childbirth, or simply put, "talent"!
This kind of talent is one in a million. People who possess it may be born with superpowers, or they may activate this talent at some point in the future by chance and thus gain superpowers.
After that, you can also make your superpowers gradually stronger through some special training.
But the degree of strength they can gain is limited, and the progress is relatively slow.
But what about the immortal cultivators
Others may not know, but Morton knows it clearly.
They are just a bunch of perverts!
And he's a super perverted pervert!
The weak ones might be very weak, but the strong ones... are those who can destroy the world with a wave of their hands, like the one he just saw, that one was ridiculously strong.
Go fight him yourself
Are you looking for death? !
…
"Why?"
Seeing Morton's increasingly ugly expression, Bob, William and other members of the Capitalist Profit Protection Union were all stunned.
"Didn't we just agree that..."
Bob wanted to curse, too.
Damn it, didn't we just agree on this? You've already uploaded your equipment!
I've even thought about how to take photos, hype you up, and pretend after I bring you back, and how to show off and bargain with those people in the Department of Residents' Happiness and Life!
And you suddenly regret it?!
What a psycho!
“It’s agreed?!”
Morton sneered: "Do you really not understand, or are you pretending not to understand?"
"Superpowers? Immortal cultivators are also superpowers? In front of immortal cultivators, what are superpowers?!"
"You want me to die!"
"Get out of here, everyone! If anyone dares to persuade me to fight that immortal cultivator again, I will chop him down right now!"
!!!!!!!
After hearing these words, Bob and the others finally came to their senses.
"You... can't defeat that immortal cultivator?"
William was a little bit unbelievable: "You are the descendant of the legendary Paladin..."
"Descendants?!"
Morton snorted coldly: "Not to mention my descendant, even if it's my ancestor..."
"well!"
Then, he sighed and said, "It's not your fault. Many things have long disappeared in the dust of history. You don't understand them at all."
"But, you have heard of Alexander's expedition to the East, right?"
"I've heard of it, so what?" Bob was puzzled.
"Alexander's Eastern Expedition..."
Morton's face was gloomy, with a hint of fear flashing across it: "Historical records show that at that time, Alexander's expedition to the east stopped at ancient India."
"But no one knew that in Alexander's team at that time, there were many strong men similar to my ancestors, and no one knew that they did not stop after reaching ancient India."
