It was nothing but an abandoned security door! Philip was speechless. After going through all that trouble, the treasure he found was nothing but a piece of junk that was not worth a second look. However, he treated it as a treasure and put it in Verge Tower because he found it on West Ocean Island. Philip felt insulted by this result, but he was not an impulsive person. There had to be a reason why this ugly security door was there. Without thinking twice, Philip simply shut the door and withdrew his consciousness from Verge Tower.The door stood resolutely in a corner of Verge Tower. The monster beast's aura, which had been purified by Verge Tower, circled the door curiously. After the purification, the aura no longer contained any aggression or awareness of the monster beast. Although Philip could still feel the presence of the monster beast in this aura, it was completely separate from the octopus. In other words, Philip could use this aura to conceal his presence.
After many years, Buck still failed to find a suitable comrade. It was a great coincidence to bump into Philip this time, so Buck decided that he had to follow Philip no matter what. Rich overheard the conversation just as he was about to leave, and he grinned brightly. What an effortless task. He was just planning to find out more about Philip’s background when Philip volunteered the information outright. “Highford Practitioner Academy, huh? Haha, I thought you belonged to some large force, but it’s just an ordinary place.” Rich looked down on Philip. Rich was from a family of practitioners with years of influence, so he took no notice of an uprising academy. Many families and guilds looked down upon such establishments too. Only an idiot would teach others how to practice by contributing their skills and techniques. Rich returned home with plans to deal with Philip. He had to discuss this with his parents. Buck found a motel and planned to visit Philip in a few days
Suddenly, Philip felt someone breaking into the formation. Philip waved to Fennel and led them to the entrance. To his surprise, the person barging through the formation was someone unexpected. It was none other than Delia. Philip was curious to find out why the young leader of Smith Guild was here. He looked at Aslan, who used his token to deactivate the formation. Delia, who was trapped in the formation, felt her vision brighten. Aslan appeared in front of her. Delia became more cautious instead of relaxing. “A-Are you real or fake?” Delia asked solemnly. She was trapped in an illusory formation, and the fantasies tricked her into going around in circles. Fortunately, the formation was not offensive but simply pranked the victim. Delia felt helpless by Aslan's sudden appearance. “What are you talking about? I'm just standing here. How can I be fake?” Aslan rolled his eyes and pointed to the door. “Follow me or you’ll still be trapped in the formation,” Aslan
Besides, Philip was always busy and had no time to entertain visitors. He would always help his friends when they encountered problems regardless of whether they often contacted him or not. Delia blushed at Philip’s candidness. “Please excuse me.” Delia cleared her throat and finally told them everything. Everyone scowled upon hearing her story. It seemed that the reclusive factions had integrated with the secular world. They took the initiative to go after the larger guilds that played a certain role in this world, such as the Smith Guild, and proposed to take over the guilds. Of course, no respectable guild would ever agree to that, but once they refused, they were doomed. The reclusive factions were very powerful. Conquering the secular world by force posed no problems to them. “The Pill Guild of the reclusive world has not only taken over the Pill Guild of the secular world, but they also want to attack us,” Delia said resentfully. These people simply relied o
Although she did not know if his words were true, Delia was unwilling to say no to that face. “If that’s the case, what should we do? My father has been put under soft house arrest. If we refuse to give in, I’m sure they’ll do something!” Delia said nervously. If she did not save her father, he might end up dead from torture! Although the Pill Guild seemed decent on the surface, their methods were despicable and disgusting in reality. “What should we do now?” Fennel asked Philip. He was not interested in this matter at all. The outcome of the Smith Guild had nothing to do with him. However, the Pill Guild had a grudge against Philip. Now that they were here, they would come after Philip next. If they really managed to take over so many guilds, they would definitely become a huge threat in the future. Philip had a good impression of Delia and did not intend to sit idly by. “You guys stay here and deal with anything that crops up. Fennel and I will go over.” The mem
As royalty among the lions, it would feel better to ride Aslan, the lion king. Philip felt very smug about it, while Wynn glanced at him helplessly. Sure enough, men were always boys. These men were very childish when they got together. Under Delia’s lead, they set off for the Smith Guild with great expectations. Aslan was not aware of the conflict between the reclusive guilds and was curious about it. “This Pill Guild is weird. As a guild that specializes in alchemy, what gives them the right to act so arrogantly?” Aslan always felt that these guilds were devils without conscience and looked down on them. “As far as I know, the Pill Guild is full of people without conscience. They make some useless pills, charge sky-high prices for them, and always act arrogantly. “It’s a pity that even though everyone is unhappy with them, they have no choice but to buy pills from the Pill Guild because they've monopolized the whole market!” Aslan was a steadfast person. When he was
The people of the Pill Guild were extremely arrogant. The Smith Guild would never give in to them. “After all this time, you still refuse to surrender? This is outrageous!” a man in green said loftily. He looked around to see if he could find some timid people, but they were very strong-minded and refused to pay him any attention. “Wow, you guys are pretty prideful, huh? Let’s see exactly how good you are!” He grabbed someone and stomped on the other party. During the past few days after he entered the secular world, he came into contact with various modern gadgets which he thought were amazing. Personally, he preferred the modern lifestyle. He was an external senior member of the Pill Guild. He used to be an internal member, but he was ousted to become an external member due to misconduct. However, that did not affect his strength. He had had enough of eating the humble pie in the Pill Guild, so he wanted to make a comeback. This was a good opportunity for him to r
“Stop it!” Delia rushed forward angrily, wishing she could rip that arrogant guy apart. The man in green kept humiliating her people and did as he pleased just because he was stronger than them. As the young leader of the Smith Guild, Delia could not allow this to continue. After waiting for so long, the man in green did not expect to see Delia. They had been looking for Delia everywhere, but Emery Camas refused to reveal her whereabouts. Unexpectedly, she appeared without any effort on their part. This woman was really stupid for showing up even though everyone was trying their best to protect her. Philip and the others watched solemnly. They knew that Delia would not be in any danger, but she would be humiliated by them. At this time, Aslan had resumed his lion form. Philip rode on Aslan’s back and marched to the Smith Guild. The commotion was quite big, and the people who were trying to pry information from Emery also noticed something strange outside. They
