“Sure, you can leave him to me. I’ll raise him like my grandson.” Looking at the timid Sammy, Mallow said thoughtfully. “Thanks for your help.” Philip turned to the boy and gestured to him. The boy probably understood and immediately got up and ran to the mermaid. He wanted to return to the human world too. This was a great opportunity for him, but he was reluctant to part with the mermaid who had been with him all the time. The two chatted with each other through the water tank, and both of them started to cry. Philip walked over. He drew a picture of a strong person and handed it to Sammy. He patted him on the shoulder, and said, “When you become stronger, you can look for her again.” Probably because he understood Philip's words, the boy nodded. The aquarium installed a small locator on the mermaid for fear of some accidents along the way. “You should head out as soon as possible,” Philip said to the leader of the entourage. Those people the boy killed last night
Philip sighed inwardly, “Trouble follows me everywhere.” “You’re now under suspicion for being a spy sent by the Green Ox Empire. Come with us.” Before Philip could explain, a hood was placed over his head and he was taken back to the cave. Philip was quickly brought into an interrogation room surrounded by mirrors. Two men walked in very soon. One of them asked, “Where are you from?” “The capital.” “Which capital?” “The capital city of White Marsh.” “What’s your purpose here?” “Interstate travel.” “Why didn’t you take the predefined route?” Philip was startled. Was there a predefined route for traveling? He replied, “I didn’t know.” After that, the man asked more than a dozen meaningless questions in succession. Philip was already a little annoyed by the questions, but if he were to break free from the restraints now, it would be extreme contempt for their efforts. The man finally finished asking. Philip wanted to breathe a sigh of relief, but a woman with sh
For a while, all the people in the holding rooms looked out the windows. Soon, several fully armed men came down from the elevator and killed the wardens. However, their equipment did not seem uniform but rather pieced together. The room doors were opened one after another, and the people outside shouted, “We’re the battle group from Cloudridge. We’ve taken over this place. Leave now if you want to survive.” Philip walked out of the holding room unhurriedly. When Joey saw Philip, he shouted, “Run quickly or something might crop up in a while.” “Okay.” After saying that, Philip acted as if he wanted to follow him to the elevator. After the leader took several target people away, he turned his gun around and said, “I won't allow you to leave now.” Immediately, Philip heard the sound of various weapons firing from behind him. Philip dodged all of them, but Joey next to him was not so lucky. His back got hit, and he flew into the elevator that had just opened, all signs of life
Only Philip still stood there, looking very calm and relaxed. A team leader in a combat uniform came over and asked with a serious face, “Did you do this?” Philip judged from his aura that this person was a six-star practitioner with a relatively solid base. He nodded. “With your abilities, why are you willing to be imprisoned here?” the man wondered. “Do you think I want to be here? You guys didn’t even give me a chance to explain!” Philip caught sight of the unreasonable woman in the interrogation room earlier, pointed at her, and said, “You there, don’t think I can’t see you. Come out here.” The woman lowered her head in embarrassment and walked over slowly. The team leader asked the woman what happened and was furious. “Outrageous! How dare you make decisions without authorization about someone from the royal family? I think you don’t want to work here anymore!” The woman tried to explain, “But I was just following procedures.” Hearing that, the leader was a littl
Philip really was not used to the taste of that drink, so he went out and threw it into a trashcan. On the street, Philip pondered if he should go to Multiherb Guild of the white tiger royal family on the third continent to find the Multidew Herb or the Heroes Conference of the fire phoenix royal family on the first continent. At this moment, a little boy covered in bruises ran out, stopped Philip, and said anxiously, “Big Brother, please save my sister.” With that said, the boy took Philip to an old house. The rusty smell of houses in disrepair lingered everywhere. It should have rained not long ago, and the water stains on the ground were reddish brown. Philip remained on guard and followed the little boy into a house with an open door. A few people were arguing, and a girl was sobbing. “Ern, we agreed to let the boss go first.” “Why should we give up such a good opportunity?” “Stop arguing. Let’s come to a compromise and let me go first.” “Get lost!” Philip pushed
The girl took out a knife from the kitchen and was about to kill the three of them. Philip quickly stopped her and said, “Aren't you afraid of getting your bedroom dirty if you do it here?” The girl shook her head, and Philip said with a sigh, “Go outside.” The three were killed by the girl while they were unconscious. Philip manipulated the water to wash the surrounding area and set the three on fire, turning them into ashes. The girl was very brave, unmoved despite killing three people. However, she was also a child who knew how to repay kindness, so she invited Philip into the house for dinner. The house could almost be described as barren. The girl took out the only piece of meat from the refrigerator and served it to Philip after cooking it. This piece of meat could be considered the most valuable item in this family. Philip did not refuse her kindness, but he still gave the siblings half the portion of meat. The siblings did not speak. After finishing his meal, Ph
They purchased some necessities from the nearby store. The tanned guy called for two large armored hover vehicles and said to everyone, “Let’s save some energy and let the vehicles take us for the first half of the journey.” As Philip joined the team later, he was assigned to the second car. A hooded girl sat next to him, constantly playing with a large-caliber handheld ion cannon. Her movements were spectacular like she was holding a blooming silver flower in her hand. Philip said, “Don't kill yourself before we get there.” The girl stopped when she heard him. She pressed the small display screen next to the gun to Philip's face and said, “I won’t make such a stupid mistake.” The ammo shown on the display was zero. Seeing this, Philip said no more. He took out the goggles he bought before and put them on to test the functions. Although the hide of this armored car was very thick, the sound of sand and gravel hitting the vehicle could still be heard, which went to show th
The tanned guy exclaimed in surprise. A beast tamer was very rare. The woman nodded and sat down again. Philip was lying in his sleeping bag, observing everything with his mental strength. This beast tamer was quite interesting. At the specified time, everyone took advantage of the huge full moon to move on. It was obvious that the vampire was not as weak as it was during the day. There were actually two moons on the land of the other shore, one far and one near. The craters could even be seen clearly on the one nearer. They moved quickly during the night. Most of them were six-star practitioners and moved fast, and they covered more than half of the distance by dawn. At noon, everyone decided to stop for a break. The sandstorm during the day was too big, and even the sky was dark. Philip got into his sleeping bag again, controlling the water to cool it down. Even if the high temperature evaporated the water, Philip could always make more water. “That dude can really sl
“It’ll take a long time for this little fox to become a human. I think you would've found your other half before that happened.” After exchanging some pleasantries, Philip bade farewell to the shopkeeper and left without further ado. They had to hurry up to find the person Adam was looking for.… Meanwhile, Luther hurried back home unhappily. He never dreamed that he would suffer such humiliation one day. As soon as he returned home, a man greeted him. It was none other than his father, who doted on his son. “What's wrong?” He was surprised to see his son ignoring him. His son was always flashy and arrogant, so his behavior was quite unusual. Luther was in no mood to pay attention to his father. He returned to the room angrily without saying a word. “Guard, what’s going on? Did someone bully my son?” Luther's father, Klein, glared at the guard unhappily, blaming the guard for everything. The guard kneeled in fear and felt sorry for himself. “The young sir was brows
The shopkeeper was clearly relieved by Philip’s remark and direct approach. However, he was also embarrassed by Philip’s bluntness. He smiled at Philip awkwardly as an apology. “Why don’t you recommend a pet for my buddy? It should be a stronger one, preferably a combat type!” Philip glanced at Carlos. He knew that Carlos was too embarrassed to take the initiative. Carlos looked at Philip gratefully, letting out a shy chuckle. The shopkeeper recommended several pets to them. Carlos was dazzled by the sight and wanted them all. Adam looked at the scene with satisfaction. Although he had a high position, he did not have a decent pet either. It was difficult to have a pet in their world. With a wave of his hand, Philip generously bought a pet for each of them. At this time, Philip heard a whine from somewhere. He turned his head curiously and looked for the source of the sound. “What’s that noise?” Philip looked at the shopkeeper in confusion, unable to find the source of
Luther was at a loss for how to react. If the rabbit could speak, it had to be stronger than his pet. Although his pet was very powerful, it was just an ordinary creature that could understand some basic instructions and handle normal interactions. A talking pet was simply to die for. “Wow, how can that monster pet speak? It’s a force to be reckoned with.” Luther was shocked to see a talking pet. It was enviable to have such a powerful monster. Before this, he mocked the rabbit for not having any ability, but the tide had turned. He was almost going crazy with jealousy and wished that he could take the rabbit for himself. “I didn't bring my pet along, so I’m afraid I can’t show it to you. Losers like you don’t deserve to see my pet.” Luther acted full of snobbery and disdain, but he clutched his purse awkwardly. In fact, not only did he bring his pet out, but he had also been ready to show it off at any time. After all, his pet was very powerful and could grow bigger or sma
Philip was annoyed by the guy’s ridicule and simply wanted to keep a distance from him. “I don’t care who you are. I don’t want to pay attention to a loser.” After saying this, Philip could not wait to leave this disgusting place. He felt sick at the sight of the guy’s ugly face. Carlos lost the mood to watch the fun. He shook his head helplessly and turned around to leave. However, that guy was used to getting his way. He did not plan to let them leave in one piece. Anyone who offended him had to die. “Surround him. Don’t let him run away!” The man glared at Philip with disdain, sure that Philip would die. Philip was quickly surrounded by a large group of people. They were angry that Philip dared to go against their boss. “Who are you? Where did you come from? How dare you disobey our boss? Didn't he tell you to stop?” a guard yelled angrily. He was clearly a competent lackey, loudly accusing Philip as if he was going to stand up for his boss. “What are you looking at?
The street was very crowded with not only various pet monsters for sale but also a myriad of pills and techniques, which looked impressive. Philip was happy to see this. This place was clearly better than any other place he had visited before. It was very different from the other places he knew. “This is the place I’ve always wanted to visit.” Philip could not contain his excitement and wanted to bring all his friends and family over. “After finding your crush, I’ll bring all my people over and show them this place.” Rabbit was surprised to hear Philip’s high evaluation of this place. He simply felt that something was unusual about this place, but it was nothing too special. “Don’t miss this great bargain. Our pets are the best. You look unfamiliar. Is this your first time here? I can tell you some things and satisfy your curiosity. I’m sure my goods are nothing you've seen before.” Seeing that Philip and the others did not own a pet monster, the seller kept promoting his g
“You must be referring to the lark people. What do you want with them? They're not to be trifled with. You’ll be in trouble if you mess with them.” Everyone was delighted to hear about the lark people. It was great that someone knew something. Adam was very excited to find a clue as soon as they arrived. He had thought it would take a lot of effort to find something, but reality proved otherwise. “The lark people can be regarded as the overlords here. You can find out about them easily. I'm just an ordinary old woman, so I can't tell you too much. You should approach other people if you want to find out more. Maybe you can find a storyteller. I’m sure they can tell you some very important information.” The old lady was clearly unwilling to disclose anything, so everyone was disappointed. In that case, they could not force her. “Thank you very much. At least you gave us an inkling about what to do. We wouldn’t know so many things if it weren't for you.” Adam thanked the old
“I heard that her family is quite complicated. They seem quite troublesome.” Hearing that, everyone wondered what Adam meant. It seemed that he would face problems in pursuing a relationship with this woman. Carlos looked at Adam awkwardly and sighed. “It doesn't matter. We don’t have to worry about that. Let's just take things one step at a time.” Rabbit calmly drifted around with Philip, feeling quite good. “What's there to worry about? I say the old monk has nothing better to do than worry about trivial matters. It’d be embarrassing if so many of us couldn’t bring a woman back.” Until now, Rabbit felt that the other party was just an ordinary woman, so he did not think that there was anything to worry about. They quickly joined the line to enter the city. To Philip's surprise, there was no entrance fee at all. Moreover, their appearance and attire looked no different from the others. Philip and his friends calmly entered the place, and Philip stood on guard. He had a
Philip felt helpless at the sight of this vast starry sky and suddenly felt that maybe coming here was not the right choice. They arrived without knowing anything about this place, so they might encounter various dangers. “I’m curious about the woman you've been looking for. She must be quite extraordinary,” Philip said curiously, baffled about this matter. Hearing that, Adam shook his head helplessly. He was really clueless about everything. “I only know that I can come here and find her with the key. I don’t even know where she is. We can only search aimlessly in this starry sky.” Philip was dumbfounded by Adam’s incompetence. “I thought we’d be teleported to her home or a fixed location, so I don’t know what’s the deal with this. I have a feeling that I’ve been tricked.” Adam sighed helplessly. “Let's just wander around. I’m sure we can find something somehow,” Carlos comforted Adam, but he was not optimistic about it either. He knew that they probably could not find the
Adam had to reevaluate Philip’s strength. He used to think that Philip was simply the best of his generation. Although powerful, he was not invincible. However, the ability to change certain orders and rules was not something that just anyone had. It would not be far-fetched to call Philip the chosen one favored by the heavens. Philip told Carlos to bury Bryce before forgetting about him. Carlos quickly handled his affairs, packed his bags, and got ready to set off with Philip. Adam also waited for Philip without much luggage on hand. Philip stuffed Rabbit into the Verge Tower space. He had to bring Rabbit along with him or the latter would be up to no good. “Rabbit, stay in Verge Tower and stop bothering me.” Rabbit was upset to hear that he had to stay in Verge Tower but still felt happy that Philip was willing to take him along. “Next, the two of you need to relax. I’ll wrap you with my energy. Don't try to resist or you’ll only end up hurting yourself,” Philip said.
