Emily's expression changed drastically when she saw the walking cane. She stood up and asked anxiously, “Who sent the walking cane? What happened to my grandpa?” Iris held the walking cane in her hand and said in confusion to Emily, “When I opened the door, I only saw the walking cane. There was no one outside.” Hearing that, Philip stood up and walked to Emily's side. “Don't worry. Let's go back and have a look.” After saying this, the group of four walked to Emily's house. At this time, Emily's house was already in a mess. There was no sign of Grandpa in the room at all. Emily panicked at this sight. Philip frowned and explored carefully as he walked around the room. On the lower floor of the underground city, Emily and her grandfather did not have any feud with anyone. The only possibility was the families on the lower floor that Philip had offended were here to seek revenge. Philip said to Leopard, “Tell your boys to find all the people who might be involved in
At the outskirts of Blackwater Forest, Philip found traces of battle. It was a fierce battle too! The area was full of severed body parts and various damaged equipment. Some came from Cougar Squad, some from the Finn family, and some from unknown families. Philip contacted Cougar on the communicator, but there was no response. He followed the earlier route and walked in the direction of the mine. However, before reaching the middle area, there was a burst of light! Few members of Cougar Squad remained around Cougar, and Philip saw that Cougar was injured quite badly. Lorna stood next to Cougar with many chinks in her saber. Although she was not injured, Philip saw fine beads of sweat on her forehead. The captain of the Shannon family was surrounding them with a group of people, and many mechas were aimed at them too. Obviously, as long as the captain gave the order, they would be wiped out. At this time, Philip, who came alone, was also discovered by the captain
A huge explosion! The fire element collided with the dark element! In the next second, to the captain’s surprise, Philip’s hand went through his chest. It was no longer a normal hand but the sharp claws of a chimera. The captain's face was full of disbelief as blood spilled from his mouth. “Impossible. What level is your fire element? Why is it so strong?” Philip withdrew his hand and said flatly, “There are many things in this world that you don't know and you won’t have the chance to know.” Philip glanced around. Philip had killed the most powerful captain with one strike, so no one else dared to mess around. People from Cougar Squad and the Finn family appeared not far away. With Philip around, no one dared to move either! Cougar and Lorna glanced at Philip. Cougar laughed loudly and said, “You really bring me luck. If not for you today, it won’t be that easy for me to escape!” Although he had the idea of fighting it out with them, this was not what Philip really
Philip said, “I want to thoroughly investigate the people in Cougar Squad and find the mole hidden inside!” Cougar's expression promptly changed. He never expected Philip to say that! “What did you say? Are you saying that there’s a mole in Cougar Squad?” Philip told Cougar about his encounter, including how he met the man who was preparing the equipment in Cougar Squad and how he heard Cougar ordering them to be fully armed! Although Philip had his suspicions about that as Cougar did not have a communicator at that time, at the thought of the two scout teams sent out before, Philip disregarded this doubt. They were far away from the main troop just now, so they were not affected by the electromagnetic bomb. Cougar frowned when he heard Philip’s words. “Come with me to Cougar Squad now!” Philip immediately followed Cougar to Cougar Squad. On the way, Philip tried to contact Emily and the others more than once, but there was no response. In Cougar Squad, Cougar gathe
Hearing that question, Philip asked softly, “Were you away from Cougar Squad just now?” Everyone could hear the impolite tone in Philip’s voice. Most of them also realized that this matter must have something to do with that guy. At this time, Cougar came over with a smile and said, “He’s the person in charge of logistics in Cougar Squad, called Old Clarke! Most of the time, he’ll be in Cougar Squad except when he needs to buy some food and necessities.” However, Philip ignored Cougar. “I repeat, were you not in Cougar Squad just now?” Seeing Philip’s severity, Cougar wanted to stop him, but Old Clarke spoke at this time, “I just came back from shopping.” Philip asked, “In that case, how do you know that I returned victorious?” Old Clarke was speechless. Since he said that he just came back, how would he know anything about Philip? If he said that someone told him through the communicator, Philip would definitely check his communicator. His hesitance and pondering
Old Clarke was Philip's only hope of rescuing his teammates now, so Philip could not let Cougar make a move. However, Cougar was unwilling to let Old Clarke off just like that, so he said to Philip, “Philip, what do you think is a better way to handle this?” Philip pondered before he looked at Old Clarke and said, “Tell us who are the people behind you and what your purpose for kidnapping them is.” Old Clarke just smiled and pointed at Philip. “The purpose is you, of course. You may not be aware of it, but someone has been eyeing you for a long time. They just want to observe you for the time being, so they haven't done anything to you yet.” After a pause, Old Clarke continued, “If you want to keep them alive, follow me to Square Cage. I guarantee you'll see them there, but it's up to you whether you can save them.” Old Clarke was about to head outside after speaking, but Philip would not let him go so easily. Suddenly, Philip stepped forward and grabbed Old Clarke's head
Old Clarke did not even glance at Lorna, who stood aside. It was as if she did not exist. Old Clarke’s disdain made Lorna unhappy. “If you can keep your mouth shut, I can guarantee that you’ll at least get to Square Cage alive!” Hearing that, Old Clarke glared at Lorna. He knew that Lorna was telling the truth. To be honest, they could kill Old Clarke right now if they wanted. They could simply ask their way around to find Square Cage. As long as Philip was not there, those people would not do anything to Leopard and the others. Hearing that, Old Clarke also thought things through, so he stopped talking. The middle floor was obviously much better than the lower floor, with more resources to choose from and trade. There was even equipment made by elemental practitioners, which showed that this place was much more developed than the lower floor. Even the mechas here were not comparable to those scrap metal on the lower floor. At this moment, Lorna whispered to Phili
Lorna looked at Philip in disbelief, at a loss of what to say. If not for Philip’s quick wit, they might have let the cat out of the bag under these people’s cross-examination. Old Clarke coughed lightly at this time. When he was about to speak to the few guards, Philip hit him on the back of his neck. Old Clarke passed out promptly, but when the guards saw Philip’s action, they were startled, thinking that they had angered Philip. This time, Philip truly felt the respect given to Square Cage by these people. However, Philip also had questions about Square Cage. After dismissing the guards, Philip woke Old Clarke up and said, “If you dare to play any tricks again, I’ll kill you outright!” Old Clarke finally realized that Philip was no easy person to deal with and promptly behaved well. At least, he was well-behaved for the time being. Finally, under Old Clarke’s direction, the three arrived at Square Cage. Square Cage was actually an abandoned factory area on the mi
“Since that’s your request, I’ll oblige.” Philip flew up the stage and quickly landed next to the old monk. Everyone was jealous to see Philip forging a connection with the old monk. Many people at the scene recognized Philip and knew who he was. “Look, isn't that Philip? I can’t believe that the old monk is so interested in Philip. It seems that we can’t take Philip lightly.” “I always thought Philip was a loser, but maybe I’m mistaken.” “He’s on very good terms with the Celestial Palace. Why would you think he was a loser?” Everyone discussed this topic with great interest. Carlos was quite close to Philip, so he felt proud to hear those comments. He knew that everyone was just jealous of Philip. The old monk stretched out his hand and invited Philip to go to his room. Philip nodded at his indication. “You look like a newcomer. Sure enough, the younger generation is taking over the world. For someone at your age to reach this level, you’re certainly a force to be
No one had ever seen the old monk, so they did not know what he was like. Philip and his party soon arrived at Zenith, which looked very grand just like a palace. The large arena in the middle was crowded with people. Everyone was looking at the stage, waiting to pay homage to this legendary old monk. Some people had seen the old monk and heard his lecture in the past. They felt that they had benefited from it, so they arrived early this time to grab a good spot. Others had never seen the old monk, but they knew they would benefit from his lecture about practice. Philip and Carlos squeezed into the middle of the crowd and found seats. Philip was very curious about the old monk and could not wait to see him. Soon, the old monk appeared in front of everyone. He looked very impressive. Seeing his attire, Philip felt that this old man was definitely not an ordinary person. His clothes were very expensive, not something anyone could afford. It was not only in reference to the pr
Rabbit was attacked by the spell before he could react. He stood on the spot blankly, wondering what was going on. Rabbit tried to move when he felt that something was wrong with him. He seemed to have lost control of his body and could not move. “You have no say in this matter. Since you left with me, it means that you've agreed to follow me.” The hooded man was calm. He did not think that Rabbit could escape his clutches easily. After all, the piece of yellow paper was not an ordinary item. He had gone to great lengths to get it. He could control the rabbit’s mind and body fearlessly with that piece of yellow paper. Over time, the rabbit would eventually become his puppet. The hooded man was very excited to think that he would have a powerful helper. Rabbit lost his senses and had no idea what happened. Subconsciously, Rabbit wanted to resist, but he could not for some reason. He could only stand and wait for orders. “Hey, bring me a glass of water,” the hooded man said
“I sense a familiar vibe from you. Where are you from?” Rabbit asked curiously. He had a feeling that this man did not belong to this world. He felt familiar. The man stared at Rabbit while thinking about how to take it away. “I have many secrets. Do you want to know more? Come with me, then. I can give you a good life and help you quickly level up. You can become the best rabbit in existence and stand at the top of this world!” Rabbit hopped over and nodded excitedly. He knew that this person was mysterious and weird, so he wanted to find out more. The hooded man was shocked that this rabbit was dumb enough to leave with him. However, he did not reveal his smugness and just held the rabbit in his arms devoutly. He never thought that he could have such a powerful pet. Thinking of this, he decided to do something to make this rabbit his own. This rabbit had developed intelligence, so it would not agree to become his pet so easily. Rabbit was just leaving with him, but being
The hooded man was very interested in Rabbit and wanted to make contact with him to find out more about him. He quickly found Philip’s house and was surprised to find that it was surrounded by a barrier that blocked all his perceptions, which made him conflicted. It was not a place he could enter at will. He felt some energy fluctuations from formations too. If he was not mistaken, entering this place would be dangerous for him. After much deliberation, he turned around and left without staying any longer. His visit here was enough to verify his guess. Since Philip could come up with such a powerful formation and barrier, he was certainly a force to be reckoned with. At the very least, Philip was not someone he could deal with so easily. As for Rabbit, the hooded man was not bothered by him at all. He just wanted to know how Philip subdued such a powerful pet. The hooded man had dealt with many monster beasts in the past but failed to subdue any. He had even suffered badly un
“Philip's strength mostly comes from his very powerful pet rabbit. Although it's a monster beast, it's a force to be reckoned with. It isn't something anyone can deal with,” Hogster said with lingering fear. He could not forget how Rabbit had beaten Alain to a pulp. “Yes, the rabbit is a force to be reckoned with. You'd better not mess with it for no reason. I really wonder where such a powerful monster beast came from.” Alain seemed very steadfast, but he was already having a mental meltdown. However, he did not want to embarrass himself in public, so he gritted his teeth and hung on. The hooded man looked at Alain and sneered inwardly. He took out a pill from his pocket and handed it to him. “Take this or I’m afraid you’ll collapse soon.” He could notice Alain’s condition at a glance and knew he would not last long. “Forget it. I won’t hide it from you. In fact, the rabbit inflicted all these injuries on me. I wouldn’t be in this miserable state if the rabbit weren’t that
Although the strength of the test subject had increased, he was not highly valued at all because his talent was not affected and did not meet the guild’s requirements. “Okay, you may leave now. Your strength has improved, so make sure to practice hard and don’t let us down,” Alain said grandly, sending the other party away. He knew that this person was nothing but a loser. The guild member who was the test subject had no idea how pathetic he was. Instead, he looked at Alain with excitement and gratitude. Hogster swallowed the potion without hesitation. He quickly felt the changes in his body as if he had become very powerful in just a few seconds. Hogster looked at the hooded man in surprise. He never thought that he could become so strong. “Wow, this is amazing!” Hogster was shocked by this unexpected outcome. His lack of self-esteem was quickly replaced with brimming confidence, and he even had the urge to mess with Philip. In his opinion, Philip was nothing special. Now
“Don’t worry, I mean no harm. That thing is quite good.” The silly member took the potion nervously and looked at Alain expectantly. “Sir, I think I’m getting stronger!” The silly guy showed off his strength excitedly. Alain stepped forward and examined the guild member curiously. Sure enough, his strength had increased. Alain found the increase in strength quite incredible. Moreover, he did not find any side effects on the other party, which was the most surprising. This potion was amazing beyond anyone’s imagination! Alain was very excited and wished he could take it too. “I believe you should know the value of this potion. Just win the competition and stop worrying about the rest.” Alain and the hooded man stepped aside to discuss offering the boys and girls. Hogster was taken aback to hear them. The two quickly reached an agreement as they knew how unethical this transaction was. “Father, you actually agreed to his request! Aren't you afraid that it’ll be expose
By taking the potion, a person could increase their overall strength, and there would be no side effects. It was a miracle potion, indeed. Alain was stunned to hear that. He felt that the hooded man was bragging. How could there be such an amazing potion? “Are you serious? It can’t be that simple.” Alain took the potion from the other party and sized it up, wondering if he should trust this thing. “If you don't believe it, you can give it a try. I don’t mind. You have many people under your command anyway. You can choose to use them as a test subject.” The hooded man was quite cold and aloof in both his actions and speech. Alain nervously clenched the potion tightly. “In that case, I’ll give it a try. Let me find someone.” Alain did not fully trust the hooded man’s words. In his opinion, it was better to play it safe. Who knew if anything would happen? He was nervous about giving something like this to his precious son. At this time, a guild member who was not highly valu
