Whether it was Bruno or the other members of the Lint family, they knew that they had a bright future. Anyone who refused to please them would be excluded from the Lint family's contact list. From now on, the Lint family would skyrocket to become one of the top families in the world. Bruno's father, Wagner Lint, was furious after learning about this incident and sent some people to assist Bruno. He arranged some powerful bodyguards at Bruno’s disposal. No matter what, they had to teach that arrogant guy a good lesson. He would not allow anyone to challenge the dignity of his family. As Bruno was aware of his father's character, he always took advantage of it to trick his father into helping him. However, he was indeed severely humiliated this time. Bruno quickly allocated the people sent by his father around the villa area. This area had been destroyed earlier and had not been repaired yet, so anyone could freely access this area for the time being. No one found it
Philip continued to monitor the children’s practice progress. They were stronger after the potion's effects, almost on par with the practitioners in this school. It would not be long before they could stand on their own feet, which was indeed worthy of admiration. They were very grateful to Philip, who gave them a second life. If not for Philip's help, they would still be in the orphanage without enough food or clothing. How could they have ever dreamed of becoming a practitioner that everyone yearned to be? Therefore, everyone regarded Philip with the utmost respect and saw this serious man as their father. As Philip taught them how to practice, a little boy approached him timidly, but his eyes were full of longing. Philip stroked his head curiously, wondering what he wanted to say. “Harry, do you want to tell me something?” Philip said. He was always very gentle to these kids. Harry clenched his fists and mustered his courage. He asked softly, “Can I call you Dad?”
Philip had many things to do every day with many people around him. An insignificant guy was not worthy of his attention at all. Aslan kept reminding Philip, who gradually showed a look of astonishment. He finally remembered that guy, It was the smug person who wanted to take over their villa back then. Philip did not expect that this guy would be involved in this matter. “So, everything is related to him. Capture him and interrogate him thoroughly,” Philip ordered Aslan to catch him. On second thought, he decided to let Fennel go with Aslan. Greg was a bit weird, and they might be in trouble if they were not careful. Aslan was always carefree and straightforward. Although meticulous in his brusqueness, Philip felt more at ease with Fennel around. Aslan and Fennel quickly headed to Greg's dorm. Greg was quite talented among the students, so he was assigned an individual room. He was in his room examining some weird gadgets. He recently found an ancient book by c
The untied student trembled in fear. “Greg, please let me go. I have a family to support. They’ll have a hard time without me! If you’re willing to spare me, I’ll forget everything that happened. Please!” the student stammered, already feeling numb from fear. Greg sneered and said, “You think too much.” Greg would never spare this guy. He stabbed the student in the heart and gouged his heart out with his hand. Blood splattered everywhere, and the scene was terrifying. The student screamed in terror and pain, trembling until he finally lost consciousness. Greg took the heart and added many spells to it. After he was done, he stuffed the heart back into the student’s body. With the help of the spells, the wound gradually healed back to normal. The other screaming students fell silent. They were afraid of death, but the scene before them piqued their interest. They wanted to know what would happen next. It was very bizarre to see Greg healing the student’s wounds
Unfortunately, out of the two people Philip sent, one was an ancient monster beast that had lived for centuries while the other one was Fennel, who struggled to make a living in the reclusive practice world. Neither of them knew much about modern life and had no idea how to deal with these things. “Damn it, this guy ran pretty fast. We couldn't catch him!” Aslan cursed. He did not have a good impression of Greg at all. Fennel remained silent, standing aside with a cold face. He was not concerned about this. Since Greg was not here, he had to be somewhere else. There had to be a chance to catch him eventually. Greg scowled at the image on the screen. “Who are they? Why did they turn up for no reason?” He did not recognize them at all. He could remember every single person who had appeared in front of him before, including janitors. Nevertheless, that was indeed the case. When Greg messed with them back then, Aslan was not there, while Fennel showed up even later. It
Greg struggled to escape from Aslan’s grasp but to no avail. “Who are you?” Greg was finally scared. He thought that these two were just ordinary people, but this guy was so powerful and could restrain him tightly. Greg was proficient in the art of puppetry, so he was capable of controlling puppets and such. However, he was really not good at fighting other practitioners. Fennel stood aside without speaking. Since Aslan could handle this by himself, he was happy to let him. Greg kept struggling, but Aslan still carried him to the villa in the end. Greg’s expression darkened at the sight of this familiar villa. Most terrifyingly, several villas in the surroundings had been taken over by Philip, making it a small villa community. Greg was very jealous of Philip’s vast resources, but on second thought, he knew he was no match for a powerful subordinate like Aslan. Rather than putting up a fight, he should pretend to submit and lie in wait next to Philip to see if he coul
Hearing Philip's remarks, Greg's heart skipped a beat, and his face turned pale. He did not expect Philip to know his secret. “W-What are you talking about? Puppetry? What’s that?” Greg stammered. He would never admit it. The art of puppetry was his life-saving trump card. He would never reveal it except as a last resort. “Philip, although I’m usually a bit arrogant and domineering, I’m not a bad person. All my fellow students can give you very good feedback about me.” He trembled in fear at the sight of Aslan’s ferocious look. Greg regretted his actions for abandoning his puppets. If he still had control over many puppets, he could have gotten them to surround the villa! If Philip and the others arrived later, he could make new puppets to help him kill or do whatever he wanted. He felt very rueful, and Philip looked at his silent remorse in exasperation. “Aslan, follow his scent to track them down.” Philip did not want to waste time. He just wanted to find the evid
Aslan easily carried Greg into the formation and crushed the eye of the formation with one stomp of his foot. The formation that could isolate everything and consume people's energy vanished into thin air. Since the formation was not completely under Greg’s control, he did not notice even when someone crushed the eye and destroyed the formation. To put it simply, Greg and the formation were just using each other. If this went on long-term, he would be devoured by the formation and become its nourishment. As soon as they entered the bomb shelter, the strong stench of blood overwhelmed them, making everyone frown. They walked closer and found piles of corpses. Philip recognized some of them as very outgoing fellow students. He grimaced at this scene. They died for no reason and suffered pain and various torture before they died. It would be unfair to them if Greg died easily. An eye for an eye, and a tooth for a tooth. Even though he was a monster beast, Aslan could n
“He lost his family when their enemies sought revenge while he was very young, so he's quite pitiful in a way.” Philip was not concerned about it. The life story of a loser had nothing to do with him. Moreover, Bryce was clearly up to no good. Getting to know him was a waste of time. “I found all the information he researched. To be honest, I’d think highly of him if he weren't up to no good.” Rabbit waved his paw smugly. He had looked through Bryce’s things and knew exactly what he had researched. Philip looked at a bottle of potion and could tell everything at a glance. “He’s a genius, indeed, but there’s no saving someone with bad intentions.” Philip shook his head helplessly. Bryce could only blame his bad luck for encountering them today. Carlos quickly took care of Bryce. There was no point in keeping such an evil villain. There was no need to be charitable in this situation. Adam looked at the room and sighed helplessly at Bryce’s unfortunate end. Although he had
Philip was curious about this situation. Since he could not get any information from the stubborn hooded man, he would find out indirectly. “That’s enough. Take him away. He has no value to us anyway. It's better to send him away.,” Philip said with disdain and did not take him seriously at all. The hooded man was shocked to hear that Philip was sending him away. He was nervous and afraid that Philip would do something to him. Although he was selfish and unreasonable, he was also a coward and afraid of death. Everyone sighed helplessly at his mournful wails. Adam closed his eyes, unwilling to get involved. Seeing this, Philip believed that Adam was unwilling to pay attention to his nephew, but he was still curious. If they were closely related, why would this guy's family sever all ties with Adam? It was advantageous to be on good terms with Adam. Not only would they receive guidance on practice, but they could also listen to his lectures from time to time. For example,
Philip and the old monk greeted each other happily as if they were old friends. Carlos was surprised to see Philip on such good terms with the high and mighty old monk. This was something he had never even dared to dream about. It was unbelievable that he could sit and drink happily with the old monk one day. “Let me introduce my friends.” Philip calmly introduced everyone around him, ignoring Carlos’ anxiety. Carlos stood up when he saw the old monk. “Hello, my name is Carlos. I admire you very much. I never thought that I'd be able to meet you one day. It’s my honor.” Carlos was happy and excited to get more perks than the guild leader. The old monk was quite friendly. After greeting Carlos with a smile, he looked at Philip curiously, wondering what he was up to. “I want to find out if you know someone.” After saying this, Philip asked Carlos to bring the hooded man out. The guy was tied up tightly and looked pitiful. More importantly, his clothes had been stripped off,
The hooded man woke up very soon, and he could not believe that Philip caught him. “What's going on? How did you catch me? This is impossible.” He was very confident in himself and knew that no one could catch him so easily, but reality had just proven him wrong. He had no choice but to believe it. “What's impossible? You underestimate me too much!” Rabbit snapped furiously. “What’s your name?” Philip stared at the man curiously. He had a feeling that this person was the same as the old monk. “Rabbit, call the old monk over. I want to speak to him. He may not know you, so you need to tell him who you are.” After interrogating this man, Philip wanted to speak to the old monk and find out his opinion about this hooded man. Since the two gave him the same feeling, they had to be connected somehow. Rabbit hopped over to find the old monk. He knew that the old monk was the best referral for this matter because he was very powerful and knowledgeable. The old monk was resting
On the other hand, Lincoln was shocked to find that Hogster was dead. Lincoln had been watching the situation and knew that Philip was a powerful person. Everything was most likely related to Philip. However, he never thought that Philip could make people stronger. He had heard of some special circumstances that could improve someone’s strength. He had roughly guessed the implications but never paid much attention to the matter. In his opinion, the Hexa Guild was already ruined. If he wanted to save the guild, he had to get rid of Alain and his people. Lincoln had lost trust in the guild. If he had not left his seclusion by chance, he would not have bothered about anything. “Forget it. Stop throwing your weight around. Since your son died a tragic death, I won’t make things difficult for you,” Carlos said in disdain.He knew what Alain had done, so he did not have a good impression of him. Although his remark sounded a little hurtful, it felt good to say it. The other guil
“What do we do with him?” Carlos asked. He wanted to skin the hooded man alive. Rabbit bared his teeth. “Kill him! Take off his clothes and hang him outside for everyone to see!” At this time, Alain finally noticed the commotion on this side. They were very noisy, so everyone kept looking over, trying to see what happened. Alain saw a familiar man lying on the ground. “What’s going on?” He walked over for a closer look and saw the hooded man! “What’s this? How could this happen?” Alain was dumbfounded. The onlookers had been watching, so they knew the situation. “What happened?” Alain asked in agony, wondering what happened. A kind onlooker explained, “Oh, don’t you know? That rabbit knocked the hooded man out!” Alain was taken aback by that remark. “How is that possible?” Alain was full of disbelief and thought someone had done something behind the scenes. Although he knew that the rabbit was powerful, he did not think it was strong enough to deal with the hooded
“You went too far! I’m well-respected wherever I go. How dare you treat me as a pet?” Although Rabbit had lost his memories after turning into an inanimate puppet, he could still deduce what had happened from Philip’s remarks. The hooded man was embarrassed to hear a rabbit reprimanding him. “If I can take you as my pet, that’s just a testament to my ability. If Philip couldn’t control you, what’s the big deal if I took you for my own?” The hooded man had always seen Rabbit as a pet, never a friend. Rabbit’s only purpose was to entertain him and fight for him. “Philip, leave this guy to me.” Rabbit was eager to take care of this guy. Carlos glared at the hooded man, certain that he had never seen him before. The hooded man also turned his attention to Carlos. From the match earlier, he knew that Carlos was from the Celestial Palace. In that case, he would have no reservations. He wanted to get to know someone from the Celestial Palace anyway. He ignored Philip and Rabbit
“What?” Carlos suddenly felt that maybe that rabbit in the hooded man's arms was Philip’s pet. “Stay here. I’ll take a closer look. I have a feeling that the guy is more than meets the eye. I think he was the one sneaking around my house.” After saying this, Philip walked over briskly. He had never seen such an arrogant thief. The guy was bold enough to appear in public after stealing someone’s rabbit. “Did you steal that rabbit from me?” Philip approached that man and asked solemnly without beating about the bush. The hooded man was taken aback by Philip's direct approach. “When did you appear behind me?” The hooded man was horrified to know that someone had snuck up behind him without his knowledge. It was as if Philip was immaterial. Feeling Philip's strength, the hooded man dared not say another word. He thought he was undefeatable, which was why he decided to watch the fun in person, but he got careless. “Are you saying that this rabbit belongs to you? Why don’t you
Jeff sneered at this scene and knew that it was time for payback. He did not plan to kill Hogster at first. After all, he was the young heir of a guild and represented the Hexa Guild. However, Hogster had pissed him off thoroughly. He had to kill Hogster at all costs. Thinking of this, Jeff raised the sword in his hand and stabbed Hogster. With that, everything was over. Alain closed his eyes at this scene. He shook his head in helpless agony. Due to the technique that he practiced, he could not have another child. Although he had been working hard to groom Hogster over the years, he had not stopped trying to get another child either. However, none of the women could get pregnant! Hogster was his only child so far. Unfortunately, his only son was dead. Under Jeff’s attack, he turned into dust and vanished without a trace! “How did things turn out this way?” Alain aged drastically all of a sudden and looked very haggard. The hooded man watched the scene warily, shocked
