At this moment, Philip was furious. Seeing the guard pouncing on him, he crashed into the guard, knocking him into the prison van transporting the prisoners of the Square Cage. There was a muffled bang. The prison van swayed. This van was no different from the normal ones, except that the bottom part was the structure of an aircraft while the top was steel cages. Seeing this, Panther’s heart dropped to rock bottom. If this incident became serious, it was hard to say if they could return to the lower floor safely, not to mention go to the upper floor. However, now that things had happened, there was no other choice. The worst they could do was to provoke the guards and fight with them. If they could find a suitable opportunity, maybe they could escape. To his surprise, Philip did not seem prepared to escape. He strangled the guard's neck tightly. The guard's face was already flushed red, obviously unable to breathe. The guard did not expect that the young man in front
The guard who heckled Philip earlier asked tremblingly, “Did you really kill Mr. Cusack?” Philip did not answer. Although his hand loosened a little, it did not leave the guard’s neck. However, his action all the more convinced the guards that Philip had really killed Mr. Cusack. And that was the reality, but few people admitted it. The guards exchanged a glance with each other before they persuaded Philip, “This is just a misunderstanding. Please don't take it to heart.” Although they had weapons and equipment and seemed in a much better shape compared to that of the lower floor, facing a person who killed Mr. Cusack, they simply had no courage to put up a fight. “Sir, on the account that I’m a first-time offender, please forgive me this time.” The guard who was strangled by the neck started begging for mercy. In their opinion, anyone who could deal with Mr. Cusack on the middle floor must not be a simple character. This was not a person they could afford to mess with,
This was a place that did not exist on the lower floor. Philip also saw many different places but as he did not know what those were for, he did not enter. Panther was afraid of any accidents. After all, what happened just now was scary enough so he did not want more trouble. With that thought in mind, Panther stepped in front of Philip. He faced the hotel front desk and showed the information displayed on his communicator. He said, “Give me a rest cabin.” Although this place was called a hotel, the room was called a rest cabin. Philip only realized that when Panther mentioned it. With Panther’s identification, they successfully checked into the rest cabin of the hotel. Although beds were also available here, most were places to replenish energy for armor or weapons. There were many devices operated by voice or a virtual panel. This hi-tech atmosphere was not seen in the ancestral land. Philip also discovered at this time that some traces of the missing civilizati
Before they fell asleep, there was a knock on the rest cabin door. The knock sounded unhurried and courteous. Panther immediately stood on alert. Although he entered the middle floor normally, Philip did not, so he could be regarded as a smuggled immigrant. Philip also sat upright. Although he did not know who the visitor was, it should be related to the previous incident. After all, looking at Panther's expression, it was obviously not someone he knew. Philip was all the more unknown on the middle floor so this result was easy to judge. However, they were now stuck in this rest cabin, almost impossible to up and leave. Philip said to Panther, “Open the door. I think they’re here for the incident earlier.” Panther stared at Philip grimly without speaking. However, he knew how troublesome this matter was. If Philip's identity was found out, he would be implicated too. “If I didn’t speak later, don’t say a word either. Don’t let the cat out of the bag.” Panther glan
This was the only way out. Panther’s delay tactic was a failure, so Philip had to take the initiative. Joy spread over the faces of the Draco Corps, and they followed Philip out. Panther followed them out of the rest cabin anxiously too. Panther walked next to Philip and was about to say something when Philip stopped Panther with his eyes. They already made a blunder so anything they said would only arouse more suspicions. So Philip stopped Panther from talking. Soon, they followed people of the Draco Corps and came to a place similar to a technological fortress. From a distance, they saw a golden dragon soaring into the sky. However, it was not a golden dragon but a customized light effect, presumably the logo of the Draco Corps. After following them through a long corridor, Philip finally saw the main lead. The captain of the Draco Corps. He was sitting upright on a chair, his face dark without any expression. Seeing Philip and Panther walking in, he just glan
“That’s enough. He’s our invited guest after all, so don’t worry about such red tapes.” The captain of the Draco Corps attracted Philip's attention. He was around after all, so he would never allow someone to bully his team members in front of him. He simply chose a more tactful way to resolve it. Philip knew that this was their territory, so he could not carry things too far, only to remind them. The intimidation just now was enough. Panther was shocked. He had heard some things about the Draco Corps. They were the core guards in charge of the whole middle floor, maintaining safety here. Although a little lacking compared to some big families or big forces on the middle floor, their strength should not be underestimated. Especially their head captain, he could be considered invincible among the six-star powerhouses of the same level. Coupled with his strong attributes, Panther heard that he had even defeated a seven-star powerhouse before. “Head captain, let's ge
“Wait a minute!” the head captain exclaimed. “For a lower floor person like you to come to the middle floor, anyone here has the right to kill you on the spot.” Philip stood still and turned his head back abruptly. Sure enough, the head captain already knew about it, but after careful thought, since they were able to catch these people, and Mr. Cusack knew Philip's identity at that time, it was easy to find out about it during interrogation. “Then let’s stop wasting time and just tell me what you want,” Philip said lightly. Philip was ready to fight. The captain of the Draco Corps signaled with his eyes and his team members got ready to fight too. “Okay, since you’re so forthright, I won’t beat around the bush anymore. As long as you hand over the item belonging to Mr. Cusack, not only will I let you go, but I can also take you for the combat evaluation.” Philip frowned upon hearing that. He had no idea what Mr. Cusack had. After killing him, Philip passed out. Under
Philip was not to be outdone. Red flame elements erupted from his body, and the temperature was scorching hot. Even Panther dodged unconsciously beside Philip. Panther had heard of Philip’s domineering strength, including the fact that he killed Mr. Cusack, but he never witnessed it. Seeing this today made him flustered. Everyone in the Draco Corps surrounded Philip at this time. Although they were nowhere as strong as the head captain, they could still pose some obstacles to Philip. The head captain glowed with six rays of light, and combined with the pale golden light, he seemed like a god. “I'll give you another chance. Hand over the key and I'll spare your life!” However, Philip simply threw a punch without another glance at him. “Cut the crap and fight if you want.” Things had gone south by now, so fighting was inevitable. In that case, he should take the first strike. After all, time waited for no one. Besides, Philip was much stronger than the head captai
