Chapter 419 If you broke something, you should compensate for it

William and Steven arrived at the meeting room around 2 p.m., having spent the journey discussing various matters and tentatively establishing a set of rules.

Their primary goal was to ensure the safety of ordinary citizens and maintain social order.

As William and Steven entered the meeting room, the group of Shapeshifters Lords all stood up in fright.

Sit down?

In William's presence, they felt an innate fear that was hard to shake off.

How could they dare to sit while William was standing?

What if William was as capricious as Lernaeus had been?

They wouldn't even know how they died.

The receptionist clearly noticed the trembling of these intimidating figures.

Yes, they were shaking!

Given their generally large stature, even a slight tremble was quite noticeable.

Steven was indeed formidable.

Just by standing there, he had them shaking in fear.

Internally, Steven was stunned.

Twenty-six of them!

If what William said was true, that each of them could instantly defeat a Demi-God level fighter, then these twenty-six creatures, if unchecked, could plunge the whole world into panic.

Although technology has advanced greatly today, Steven is well aware that their technology is helpless against Demi-God level powerhouses, doomed only to a fate of passively taking hits.

Yet, even these formidable beings were visibly frightened in William's presence, indicating just how powerful William really was.

William scanned the group of Shapeshifters Lords and then coldly instructed, "You all will follow this lovely lady to register your names, provide hair and fingerprint samples, and then have your photographs taken. The rest, I'll explain later."

After he spoke, the Shapeshifters Lords could only meekly nod, not even daring to speak loudly.

William's gaze fell on Thanarok, and he asked, "Can you write in our language?"

Thanarok nodded and replied, "I can."

"Then assist this lovely lady with the registration. If you're interested, you can join our 13th Bureau."

William was already planning to recruit some people for the 13th Bureau.

It wasn't feasible for him to handle everything personally.

Even the deities from the Divine Realm, who might descend in the future, could be brought into the fold.

Incorporating more "strong individuals" would make it easier to maintain order.

"Interested..." Thanarok dared not refuse.

How could he say he wasn't interested when William asked him? He wouldn't dare.

"Then go and register first."

Upon William's command, a group of intimidating Shapeshifters Lords lined up and followed the receptionist to register their names, provide hair and fingerprint samples, and then sat neatly waiting for their photographs to be taken.

After they finished, they returned to find Steven had brought in several chairs for them to sit on, and they all obediently took their seats.

Like a teacher in a classroom, William spoke sternly, "Now that you have come to our world, you must abide by its laws and regulations, understand?"

The Shapeshifters Lords nodded like kindergartners, not daring to make a sound.

"We've just registered you and collected your DNA. If you commit any crimes in the future, you will face the corresponding punishment. We'll be introducing laws regarding Soulmancers and Shapeshifters soon. Someone will contact you then to come and learn about these laws," William explained. "Also, you've been issued temporary visas. From now on, you are not allowed to change your appearances. You must check in once a month, and if you maintain a clean record for a year, you'll be issued an official Green Card."

In just that short time, Steven had arranged for twenty-six new smartphones to be brought in, each fitted with a SIM card, and distributed to them.

The just-prepared temporary visas were also issued to them, complete with photos of their current appearances.

The Shapeshifters Lords were utterly baffled.

What was this DNA? And what was this device they were given?

It sounded like they had left behind hair samples, and if they committed any crimes, William would immediately find out and potentially eliminate them on the spot.

The Shapeshifters Lords fumbled with the smartphones, puzzled about what these devices were.

William sat down, and soon a staff member from the 13th Bureau arrived with a projector to teach these Shapeshifters Lords how to use the phones. They were introduced to the purpose and functions of the smartphones and informed of their phone numbers.

"Bang!"

One of the Shapeshifters Lords, unable to control his strength, crushed the new phone in his hand, causing it to explode in a puff of smoke and sparks, which startled him terribly.

He was utterly petrified.

He looked at William with a face full of horror.

It's over!

He's doomed!

He had just damaged something given by William.

"Thud!"

The Shapeshifter lord who crushed the cell phone turned pale and knelt down directly, kneeling a big hole into the floor of the reception room.

If these Shapeshifter Lords had known any earthly swear words, the room would have been filled with exclamations and curses.

Not only had this Lord broken the phone, but he had also made a huge dent in the floor – he was surely finished!

The other Shapeshifters Lords looked at him with a mix of sympathy and pity.

"Mr. Johnson, I am sorry! Please spare my life," pleaded the over 9-foot-tall Shapeshifter Lord, as tears started streaming down his face, falling on the floor and making more dents.

A once-feared Shapeshifter Lord was now reduced to tears by fear.

Steven quickly stepped forward and said, "It's not a big deal, don't be so nervous. If the cell phone is broken, we'll just replace it for you. As for the dent in the floor, I'll have someone repair it later."

William wasn't that angry,he wouldn't annihilate someone over such a trivial matter.

"Get up! If you broke something, you should compensate for it. The phone was a gift from Steven, so no need to compensate for that. But the floor..." William asked, "Do you have any dollars?"

"Dollars?" The Shapeshifter Lord was confused again, with a mournful face, he said, "I don't have any."

William said, "If you can't compensate with dollars, then stay and work here. As for your salary, someone will discuss it with you."

Hearing this from William, the Shapeshifter Lord realized he wasn't going to die and, in his excitement, he kowtowed again, cracking several more floor tiles. The room shook violently, and the glass windows shattered.

"..."

The Shapeshifter Lord looked up at William again with a pitiful expression.

William gave him a long look, then turned and walked out, saying to Steven, "Steven, I'll leave the rest to you."

Steven nodded in agreement.

William had gone to great lengths, even recruiting a powerful Shapeshifter Lord to work for the 13th Bureau, effectively boosting their combat capabilities.

A few floor tiles, some window panes, and a phone were a small price to pay for the service of a strong Shapeshifter Lord.

Steven couldn't have imagined a better deal.

Steven's gaze swept over the Shapeshifter Lords present. At that moment, he almost wished they would demolish the building.

There were twenty-six Shapeshifter Lords capable of defeating Demi-God level fighters!

But for now, it was good enough.

Two of them had already joined the 13th Bureau.

With the right emotional appeal and reasoning, he was confident about bringing more of them on board.
