In a forest, a young man who was fishing leisurely suddenly noticed something strange outside the forest and frowned. The next moment, a golden list zoomed into the forest from the outside. The young man's eyes turned cold as he said solemnly, “Who’s there?” “I'm Berger from the ancient Heavenly Court. I'm at the peak of the pseudo holy tier. I’m here to deliver the holy list and other lists to you, Holy Lord.” A bellowing voice came from outside the forest. “The holy list has been sent, so I shall take my leave.” With that said, Berger quickly left. The person who was about to attack Berger paused before he glanced at the list in his hand. [Kenyon, level three holy being, ranked 26th with no affiliated forces.] … In a huge temple, a statue stood quietly in the hall, surrounded by countless smaller statues. Hundreds of worshipers knelt devoutly in front of the huge statue. Suddenly, someone appeared in the hall. Dozens of monks noticed this and appeared in front o
The ancient Heavenly Court whipped up a storm on the Starfall Continent, and everyone was amazed by its influence. They were able to dig out so many holy beings, which exceeded their expectations. From this moment on, the number of holy beings in this world was no longer a secret. However, only the ancient Heavenly Court knew that many people were not on this list yet. No matter how powerful the ancient Heavenly Court was, it was impossible to grasp the information of all holy beings. On the other hand, the information about the talents on the list aroused everyone’s curiosity. There were hundreds of names on the talent list, but the people at the top had a title that shocked everyone. [Rank 1, Jonny, 38 years old, the peak of nine stars with the potential to reach the holy tier!] [Rank 2, Tommy, 39 years old, the peak of nine stars with the potential to reach the holy tier!] … [Rank 327, Philip Clarke, 27 years old, the early stage of eight stars with the potential
Everyone fell silent upon hearing Francis’ words, and they looked at him angrily. “What do you mean? Do you want to turn against us?” “Francis, you’d better think twice about this. There’s only one of you, and the number of people on our side far exceeds yours!” “If you submit to the other party, you’ll most likely end up being a slave! You need to think carefully!” “We’re no longer pure mecha lifeforms. We have our consciousness and thoughts. In other words, we’re humans!” Various voices could be heard, and Francis' footsteps never stopped. However, when the last voice rang, Francis stopped, turned around, and looked at the speaker. He said indifferently, “As you're aware, strictly speaking, we should be regarded as human beings. Humans have individual thinking and ideas. Moreover, more than 90% of humans will accept the submission of a powerful person and give the other party due respect. “The first person to do so may feel bad about it, but after that, the benefits w
As if he did not hear what the other party said, Francis said, “Like what he said just now, I plan to join you. I’ve lived in Sin Capital for at least hundreds of years and know this place better than you. “The question I want to ask you is, if I can take you to the pivot area and help you take control of Sin Capital, can you let me be the leader of the natives in Sin Capital?” Francis' eyes flashed, and a hint of ambition appeared in his pupils. Philip looked at Francis in surprise. He never thought that Francis would say this to him. After thinking for a moment, Philip looked up and said solemnly, “If you can do that, there’s no harm in letting you control Sin Capital.” Philip had to practice many laws and special arts, so he really could not spare the effort to manage Sin Capital. Since Francis had this thought, he would not mind. That was on the premise that Francis had no other intention. Francis smiled and said, “In that case, thank you, Mayor. And rest assured th
When Lord Bizarro was talking with Vinny, the first wave of conflict broke out in Sin Capital. Hundreds of low-level mecha lifeforms emerged out of nowhere in front of Philip and Francis, their eyes glowing with a strange red light. Their energy surged as the light appeared. They were the natives of Sin Capital, mecha lifeforms, so Sin Capital posed no resistance to them. However, other mechas would not work inside, which was why Lyher was at such a disadvantage in Sin Capital. Philip looked at the mechas in front of him and frowned. Jonas and the others told Philip that there were tens of thousands of natives in Sin Capital, but only a small portion of them appeared at this moment. Although these natives were of low levels, they were also extremely difficult to deal with. They would delay Philip and his party for half an hour. This duration was enough for other practitioners in the city to summon more mecha lifeforms. Thinking of this, Philip's face darkened, and a c
Francis froze and nodded. He said, “I understand.” Then, the two set off into the depths of Sin Capital. Meanwhile, in the depths of Sin Capital, the other nine-star mecha lifeforms could not help their mouths from twitching when they saw this scene. “What’s up with this guy? These people could've been his most loyal subordinates in the future. They could've been a great help to him!” “Why kill them so recklessly?” “Isn't he afraid that he’ll end up with an empty city?” Another person shook his head and said helplessly, “He’s probably worried that we’ll gather more mecha lifeforms. By then, it may really become an empty city. But if he kills them now, he’ll only sacrifice hundreds of mecha lifeforms.” The man sighed again and said gloomily, “We seem to have misjudged this new mayor.” The people around fell silent, indirectly acknowledging the man’s words. Based on their way of thinking, most people would not destroy the things that could help them in the future, as it
As Philip entered the inner city, he felt as if Sin Capital had changed. The city in front of him was full of advanced technology with aircraft and various other flying devices in the sky as well as translucent tracks. It looked like a normal city! Other than that, four dark buildings in the four corners of the city looked like black pillars, and Philip could not help but wonder. “What are those black pillars?” Philip asked curiously. Francis smiled and said, “Those are photon cannons.” “Photon cannons?” Philip was startled, more confused. Without waiting for Philip to ask, Francis explained, “Based on our understanding of the outside world, the strongest mecha or cannon can't cause too much damage to a practitioner above the pseudo holy tier, but these photon cannons are different. They need to be charged for at least one month after one usage. “Over time, the attack power of the photon cannons became different. If we use the current time ratio, the photon cannons can
“Although the core area is small in size, it should be the most heavily impacted when the fight breaks out. They should be waiting for us here, so you should get ready to battle, Mayor.” Philip looked thoughtful, and he soon became serious. “Ask someone to go to the outer city to find all the outsiders and let them all enter the inner city. Hurry at full speed. I want to see them here within ten minutes!” Francis looked at Philip in puzzlement and said, “Mayor, aren’t you putting yourself in danger? Those outsiders should be your enemies too. If you do that, the pressure on us will be even greater.” Obviously, Francis did not know that Philip had already subdued them. Philip could not be bothered to explain it to Francis and simply said, “Just get someone to do it, and don’t worry about the rest.” Francis could only nod without a word. After ordering the other four to search for those outsiders in the outer city, Francis looked at Philip again. “Mayor, I think I should te
“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
