Invincible! This person has lived for a billion years

Chapter 16: The words on that stone tablet were carved by me

The museum's collection was not extensive in the past, but the artifacts discovered on Mount San Juan Teotihuacan a few days ago are enough to make it the most abundant and precious museum in the country, even globally.

After touring around, William didn't find any other interesting artifacts. He could only confirm that eighty percent of the things from his tomb were in this museum.

"Are you done looking?" William's purpose today was to take another look at his old belongings. Since they had been preserved for visitors, let them see it.

"Not yet," Lila asked in a low voice, "Can you really read the words on the stele?"

William looked at her, smiled, and remained silent, his eyes full of laughter.

Lila was somewhat flustered under his gaze, pretended to casually turn her head, and said, "If you don't want to say it, don't. I'm just a bit curious. Who exactly was the owner of the tomb on Mount San Juan Teotihuacan? Why do the things in his tomb span thousands of years?"

"Who knows?" William said indifferently.

"Do you think there might be people who are immortal?" Lila heard Edward Taylor's translation; if the inscription on the stele was true and all carved by the same person, wouldn't that mean that someone lived for thousands of years, or even longer?

Emily, holding Lila's hand, said, "How could that be? Immortality, like zombies or vampires? Let's not speculate!"

"But how do you explain the stele?" Lila was also shocked by the content on the stele. She couldn't imagine who carved those words on it.

She didn't realize that the person who carved the words was standing right beside her.

"Why don't you just assume that there are people in this world who have lived for thousands or even millions of years?" William said.

"Just assume?" Emily said, "William, I have to tell you, science is rigorous. The human body will gradually wear out, and organs will age, so there's absolutely no possibility of immortality."

"Science!" William nodded. He had lived in Europe for a time and seen many strange things.

As for the science Emily was talking about, it was indeed the case, as he had also studied the life and death of ordinary people. It was nothing more than the deterioration and death of internal organs, leading to the failure of body functions, resulting in death.

William actually had a way to maintain youth and extend life, but this method only worked for women, or rather, he would only help women achieve this.

After all, this method was to consume his essence...

There were women who had tried it before, and as long as they consumed it, they could ensure at least fifty years of youth, and life could be extended by more than a hundred years, but if they wanted to live longer, it was impossible.

Emily looked William up and down, touching her chin and said, "You say you can read the words on the stele. Are you a descendant of the person who carved the words on the stele, or... are you that person?"

William nodded, "Actually, I carved that stele, and the things they brought down from the mountain were my personal belongings."

What a sincere and simple answer!

Emily laughed heartily, "You really can boast! I believe it, I believe it! Tell me the story about you, Cronus and Zeus."

Lila just looked deeply at William. When this man seriously bragged, it did seem plausible.

"Speaking of young Zeus," William said seriously, "He was quite a cute kid that year, I taught him a lot of things, such as the use of lightning. He later even got called the king of all gods. However, he was a bit clumsy; I usually only had to use one finger to beat him. He also had two brothers, one called Poseidon, who loved to cry and turned the fresh sea water salty. The other brother was Hades, a rather unsociable child, which I didn't particularly like."

"Of course!" Emily giggled, "So what about you and Alexander the Great?"

"Alexander the Great?" William smiled, "That was what people called him later. He studied with me for a few months and I taught him some weapon modification skills, who knew he'd go on to rule the world."

Emily stared at William, pursing her lips, "Chatting with you is truly fascinating. You're a natural at telling tall tales, you never blush, and I bet you often have girls heads spinning."

William shook his head, "I never lie to women."

Having lived for so many years, he truly never deceived a woman, because he never lacked female company. Due to his immortality, he found it difficult to have descendants. The law of nature is simple: the stronger the species, the more difficult it is to reproduce. Over the years, no woman has been able to bear his child.

"Wow! I believe you!" Emily blinked and asked, "Tell me honestly, do you like me?"

William glanced at Lila and said, "She's too young."

Emily followed his gaze to Lila's chest, then looked down at her own and mumbled to herself, "Is this considered young?"

William nodded seriously, "A bit young."

Lila's face turned bright red. She never expected that their conversation would turn towards her, with them commenting on her.

Small or not small?

"Have you finished sightseeing? If so, let's go!" Lila didn't want to talk to these two anymore. There were many people around, and their brazen discussion about her body was just too awkward.

"Done sightseeing!" Emily giggled, "Lila, it's still early. Let's stroll down the antique street nearby. After all, William is someone who has lived for thousands of years, he might recognize an antique at a glance, and we might score a bargain."

What 'lived for thousands of years'? William's skin was indeed as thick as if he had accumulated it for thousands of years, his face never changed no matter what he said. If Lila wasn't entirely sane, she might even have believed him.

David followed behind, trembling with anger. What was going on?

That rascal William was full of hot air, yet Lila still paid attention to him. Despite his maturity and steadiness, Lila barely gave him a second glance.

And Emily, who had promised to create an opportunity for him and Lila to be alone, was now chatting enthusiastically with William, wasting his two museum tickets.

Upon hearing about the antique street, William perked up, "Let's go check it out then."

There probably isn't anyone in the world who understands antiques better than William. While others determine the age of antiques through certain traces and features, William has truly experienced that history. He only needs one glance at any object to tell its history.
