Roger walked in, looking much better. His complexion was rosier, but he was thinner. Philip looked up with an aloof expression and asked, “Are you feeling better?” Roger smiled kindly, glanced at his son, and said, “Much better. It's the first time you’re showing concern for me.” Philip frowned and said stubbornly, “You think too much. I don't care about you.” Seeing this, Fennel shook his head helplessly. He bowed slightly to Roger and said, “Patriarch Clarke, are you sure you want to do this?” Roger walked over, looked at Fennel with admiration, and said, “I’m sure. The Lovelace family's affairs are the Clarke family's affairs. The affairs of the Lovelace family are related to the future direction of the world. Time is running out for us, and I want to find out what the Lovelace family has been up to over the years. I also hope to see some old friends whom I haven't seen for a long time.” Fennel frowned and asked, “I thought you didn’t know much about the Lovelace family
Philip frowned, looked at Roger, put his hands in his trouser pockets, and said, “Then I’ll become stronger. Sooner or later, I’ll get rid of the Lovelace family! Not for the sake of your great righteousness but for Wynn’s sake!” Roger smiled and said, “You’re quite devoted.” Philip glanced at Roger. The latter thought for a moment and said, “I already know what happened to Wynn. In fact, this matter has little to do with the Lovelace family. It was Wynn’s decision. If she wants to understand the Lovelace family, become a part of them, or even get her hands on them, she must forget everything from the past and completely integrate into the Lovelace family. When you left the country to come here, Wynn once approached me to discuss this matter. This is what she left behind for you.” With that said, Roger took out a letter from his pocket and handed it to Philip. He got up, patted Philip on the shoulder, and said, “Read it carefully. Besides your mother and me, Wynn is definitely th
With Roger’s consent, Georgina spread the news about Roger’s injury to the Lovelace family’s servant. Sure enough, the Lovelace family was very concerned about this news and immediately dispatched many computer experts to track the source of this news as well as Georgina's IP address. “They've taken the bait!” Georgina shouted excitedly. Philip and Fennel stood by Georgina's side, closely watching this war of information technology without gunpowder. “How long will it take to determine their location?” Philip asked. Georgina thought for a moment and replied, “At the current speed, half an hour will do. Likewise, if we can't hang on for half an hour on our side, our position will be exposed.” The look on Georgina's face became obviously grave. Although it was not the first time she had done this, the previous servers were rubbish. She could do it in five minutes. Even for the most powerful server in the Octagon, Georgina only spent 25 minutes getting in. This time, it
The hot and sexy goddess Athena walked out of her swimming pool in her bikini, which revealed her perfect body. She shook off the water droplets in her hair, took the lace robe handed by the maid, and draped it over her graceful body. Then, she lay on the beach chair and took a sip of whisky. A guard walked over at this moment, bowed, and said, “Lord Athena, something has happened to the Hall of the Sun.” Hearing this, Athena sat up abruptly, turned her head to look at the female guard, and asked, “Apollo?” “Yes, Lord Athena. According to the information we received, the Hall of the Sun has entered a state of defense. All their bases are closed to prepare for battle. I think they must be in big trouble,” the guard replied. Athena got up, exposing her pair of straight long legs that countless women envied and a proud figure. She walked out of the open-air swimming pool and said coldly, “Prepare my battle suit. I’m going to the Hall of the Sun!” Soon, Athena put on her platin
Hearing this, Fennel was obviously exasperated and said, “Ares, do we have to fight today?” Ares said coldly, “Yes, today. I have to go to Northfrost and may be away for a few months. Before that, I must fight with you.” Fennel’s face darkened as he asked, “Northfrost? Is he coming out?” After saying this, Athena and Hephaestus both looked at Ares with a flash of worry in the corners of their eyes. They asked, “Ares, is your father coming back?” Ares nodded with gloom in his eyes and said, “His punishment is almost over and he’ll return. This time, I’m going to Northfrost to pick my father up. When the time comes, the fallen Hall of the Dragon King will make a comeback, which will pose a huge threat to the 12 Sacred Halls of the West and the sacred city. However, he’s my father, after all. I’ll choose to follow him.” There was silence. Time was at a standstill in the hall for a moment. Ares' father was the dragon king who once ruled the Western underworld for 20 years—the
Fennel wiped the blood from the corner of his mouth and looked at Ares, who was also gasping for breath and injured. He said with a smile, “As expected of War God Ares. Such combat power is very strong.” Ares looked at Fennel coldly, took a deep breath, and said, “Apollo, you’re stronger than I thought. You’re the second person I admire in my life. The first is my father, and you’re the second.” Fennel raised his eyebrows and said with a smile, “Then I should be very proud.” Ares laughed, his soaring fighting intent exploding once more. The next second, he yelled, “Again!” Boom! In an instant, the two fought again. A shocking energy pressure and the power of rules erupted! The training ground was reduced to rubble! Athena stood in the distance and used her field of kingship to shield the energy dispersed by the two’s battle. At the same time, she shouted, “That's enough! Ares, stop it! Apollo, stop fighting!” However, once two men were in battle mode, they could not sto
Mystic City in the Northwest? Philip trembled when he heard this name. He looked at Fennel in bafflement and asked, “What is this place? In today’s information technology age, are there still places that are not displayed on maps or known to the world?” Fennel shook his head, his face getting more serious by the minute. He said, “You misunderstood. It’s not that this place is not known to the world, but that the people who know this place are not ordinary people of the secular world. The reason it’s not shown on the map or marked out is due to human doings. To a certain extent, every country has places that they don’t want outsiders to know about. Take this place, for instance. It’s divided into many districts with many bases for secret research, which are confidential and not marked on the map.” Philip nodded and more or less understood Fennel’s meaning. He continued to ask, “Then what exactly is this Mystic City of the Northwest?” Fennel sighed and said, “I don't really know
Fennel looked at Georgina, who had her head lowered. Her face was a little haggard. He said, “Georgina, it's not your fault. Don't worry. We’ll take care of the rest. You should rest.” After saying that, Fennel gently patted Georgina on her shoulder and ordered a subordinate to bring Georgina back to rest. At this time, Athena and Hephaestus walked over from the side where they had been watching. With doubts and worries on their faces, they asked, “Who has locked your position?” Fennel looked at Athena without any intention to hide it and said, “The Lovelace family.” “The Lovelace family?” Hearing this name, Athena was taken aback. She frowned and said, “How did you mess with them?” Philip said, “It’s because of me.” Athena still wanted to ask when Fennel said, “Stop asking. It’s better if you don’t know some things. Now that the Lovelace family has locked our position, we need to keep an eye on their actions. I think they’ll launch an attack on the Hall of the Sun.” At
“Wow, I feel so good as if I just had a massage.” Jeff praised Philip in his mind. After taking the pill, he recovered instantly. Even the ailments he had been suffering from in the past were healed. He was in such good shape that he could face Hogster with no problem. He even felt that he could resist Hogster’s attack this time. Philip nodded. Jeff was quite good. He had thought that Jeff was already defeated and would not even be able to move. However, Jeff forced himself to take out a pill and swallowed it. “He’s quite good at persevering and has a bright future. You can consider grooming him,” Philip said to Jamie. Jamie was surprised to hear such a high assessment from Philip. Jamie attached great importance to Philip's suggestion. Since Philip said so, he would develop Jeff properly. “Aren’t you very full of yourself? Keep going.” Jeff rushed forward and started beating Hogster up. Hogster was already dying and could not put up a fight at all. “Stop!” Hogste
The Hexa Guild had lost the earlier match, so Hogster was upset about it. Their guild should be undefeatable. They should have made a name for themselves by now, but everything was ruined. Although Hogster did not know why the Celestial Palace was so powerful, he had a feeling that they were cheating. “I’m the pride of the Hexa Guild while you’re just an ordinary member. Don't even think about resisting me,” Hogster said calmly, clearly looking down on Jeff. Of course, Jeff was not to be outdone. “My favorite hobby is to beat someone while they're down. Your guild's reputation is so bad anyway. Why bother holding on to it?” His remark struck the Hexa Guild’s sore spot, and all the members scowled at him. Indeed, the Hexa Guild had a very bad reputation. They could only recruit ordinary people who could not join other guilds but yearned to practice. “Hehe, cut the crap. We’ll know the outcome after a fight!” After saying this, Hogster charged at Jeff with a weapon in han
It would do the Hexa Guild no good to keep Vanna alive, so they would not allow it to happen. Although the members of the Hexa Guild were angry, they quickly cheered up. There would be several matches with the Celestial Palace to go. They could not lose their fighting spirit because of this trivial matter. “Let’s see how powerful the Celestial Palace is. I refuse to believe that we’re no match for them.” Hogster decided to take the stage because the upcoming opponent was just an ordinary member of the Celestial Palace. They were not very strong. In his opinion, an ordinary member could not be very strong. It would be easy to win this match, and it would save him a lot of trouble too. It would be bad if he faced a dark horse like the previous match. The hooded man saw the performance of the Celestial Palace and was surprised by their extraordinary strength. However, he did not notice anything unusual. He simply thought that it was their usual strength. Since they were so str
“This is interesting.” The hooded man glanced at the people discussing this matter and felt expectant. He could not wait to meet Philip. On the other hand, Philip was watching the competition and had no idea what was going on. “Oh, I see, you’re the young lady of the Celestial Palace. I thought you were very powerful, but this is all there is to you.” Vanna’s opponent was an ugly woman who was very upset with her beautiful appearance. Vanna looked at her mockingly. “The outcome has yet to be determined. I don’t think you’re any better either.” After saying this, Vanna looked at the other party, waiting for her to make the first move. The ugly woman was furious at Vanna’s provocation. “Very well. Since you don’t know what’s good for you, let me show you what I’m capable of!” After saying this, she attacked Vanna as if she were ready to get rid of her. She had received an order from the guild leader to deal with Vanna properly. The Hexa Guild had initially planned to qu
The Hexa Guild also claimed that they would kill anyone from the Celestial Palace. Although upset, no one dared to say anything in the face of the other party’s strength. It would be embarrassing if they could not live up to their claims if they retorted now. Moreover, the battle was a matter of life and death. Everyone was risking their lives. The Celestial Palace had the confidence to face the Hexa Guild now. They believed that they could turn the situation around with their strength or at least show them what they could do. There would be a battle between the two parties in the afternoon, which was the best time to show off their strength. The young lady of the Celestial Palace would be the one contending. After improving her strength, Vanna was full of confidence and vowed to give her opponent a fatal blow or at least let them know how powerful she was. Ronan was nervous. He was not worried about his wife but worried that the Hexa Guild would take things too far. Those
It could be considered returning the favor. Jamie shook his head helplessly. He knew Philip’s kind intentions, but this matter was not so simple. “I know that your wine can improve someone’s strength, but it’s no help to us right now!” The overall strength of the Hexa Guild had increased so much that it went beyond anyone’s comprehension. Carlos turned up at this time. He wanted to talk to Philip about this matter, but Jamie beat him to it. “My friends just told me that the Hexa Guild is hellbent on dealing with everyone, not only us. Anyone up against them will be killed. They must be insane to face any guilds without fear!” Philip was intrigued. They could not be so confident for no reason. They must have encountered an opportunity. “Maybe they encountered an opportunity. I can't be sure about this, but I can at least provide you something to ensure that nothing happens to your people.” After saying this, Philip handed Jamie some pills. Philip was very confident about
It was very suspicious that a bunch of losers became so strong all of a sudden. “Philip, don’t you think something is wrong? I have a feeling that the Hexa Guild did something,” Jamie asked bluntly with mixed feelings about it. There was clearly something wrong with the Hexa Guild. Philip nodded. He had been watching the competition carefully. He could see that these people’s strength had just been improved, and their foundation was not very stable. “Don't think too much. There is a problem with them, and it’s not small either. From the looks of it, they must've taken something that can quickly improve their strength. However, their skills and combat experience can't keep up, so they can only barely manage it.” Philip shook his head helplessly. At this rate, even the members of the Celestial Palace would suffer. Moreover, the Hexa Guild held a big grudge against the Celestial Palace. Once they met, it would definitely be a life-and-death battle. “What should we do? All th
“You should prepare for the competition.” Philip turned and left after saying that. Everyone felt angry at his domineering appearance. Some people had ideas about Philip. “Which guild does Philip belong to?” a man with a sinister face asked angrily. He wanted to know which guild Philip belonged to so that he could go all out to target Philip's guild. Others shook their heads. No one knew much about Philip. At this time, a spy from the Hexa Guild stepped forward. He looked at the man flatteringly and provided all the information he knew. “Philip doesn't belong to any guild, but he’s an honorary elder of the Celestial Palace!” The fact that Philip became an honorary elder of the Celestial Palace had not been made public. Only people keeping a close eye on the Celestial Palace knew about it. The Hexa Guild had always wanted to deal with the Celestial Palace, so they had been keeping a close eye on the latter. They knew all the minor details. The man scowled as if he did
“I can explore the secret realm on your behalf, but why do you think she’d appear there?” Although Philip could not figure it out, maybe the old monk had his reason for saying that. “I’ll explore the secret realm after the guild competition is over. If I can find the woman you’re looking for, I’ll think of a way.” In fact, Philip would rather take the old monk with him. He did not know what the woman looked like, so it was better for the old monk to do it himself. “Sure!” The old monk smiled brightly, surprised that Philip would agree so decisively. The secret realm was full of dangers. He knew that he should not let others take risks for him, but Philip did not ask any questions and even agreed to his request without any hesitation. “I’ll think about it and see if I can find a way to bring you in,” Philip said off-handedly. He still preferred to bring the old monk with him. The old monk was dumbfounded and thought he had heard it wrongly. “What?” The old monk gaped at
