Dickens popped the pill without hesitation with hopes that it could alleviate his condition. However, he was surprised to find no changes in the pain. “Play with fire and you’ll get burned one day. After all the harm you did, did you think you could get a good pill?” Philip waved the pill in his hand. He had swapped the pill with chocolate when Dickens took it out. No one in this world had eaten chocolate before. Dickens’ face lit up when he ate the chocolate, surprised that the pill made by Philip was so delicious. However, the delicious taste made no difference to the pain he felt. Dickens quickly realized that he could not afford to offend Philip. Philip was a menace! Dickens endured the pain and staggered up. After lowering his head to Philip humbly, he hobbled away. He had to complete the task and compensate for all the money within three days. He had some savings at home. If it was not enough, he would have to sell off his family property. Where there was
Kade was very jealous that Alton had such a strong successor. He was very unhappy because he had no heirs at his age. Therefore, he set his sights on Alton and Cosmo. Since they were rivals, Kade could not let Alton enjoy something he did not have. He found someone to concoct some poison to harm Cosmo. However, Cosmo was lucky enough to evade his attack every time. In the end, he was so angry that he took matters into his own hands. He mixed the poison and found someone to coax Cosmo into taking it. Although Cosmo was powerful and quite mature mentally, he was still a young boy and easily deceived. He fell for the trick and consumed the poison. Since then, Cosmo had fallen into a coma with no signs of waking up. As time passed, Cosmo's vital signs became weaker and weaker. To bask in his achievements, Kade found someone to monitor Cosmo's and Alton's every move. It was not easy to monitor Alton, who was elusive and difficult to track. Cosmo, on the other hand,
Niffler was an efficient subordinate and roughly found out Oz’s destination before he met Kade. “They're heading northwest, and there’s only one destination in that direction, a place called Orbit City. They're either heading to that city or into Guzo Forest, which is even more dangerous.” Niffler smiled. As an excellent intelligence officer, he knew all about Guzo Forest. Kade was puzzled. He did not know anything about Guzo Forest. “It should be quite safe in Guzo Forest. As long as they don’t enter the depths, a few hunters can protect them.” As a mayor, Kade knew that hunters could take up random missions. If they could find some hunters, they would be relatively safe as long as they could afford the reward. Niffler shook his head in response and said, “It’s not that simple. Guzo Forest has changed recently. According to reports from my scouts, Guzo Forest is unusually restless, and the beasts have become much stronger. “More importantly, there are signs of them inv
These people had never bought anything from Treasure House before, but they bumped into someone selling pills from Treasure House when they were leaving the city. They bought one out of curiosity but soon forgot about it. They did not know the exact price of the pill, but it seemed cheaper than the pills sold in Bijou Parlor. After they entered the forest, they soon encountered many raging beasts. The beasts were very aggressive and wanted to tear them apart. As hunters, they knew that they should not be hurt if they did not provoke the beasts. A well-fed beast would not mess with humans for no reason. However, things were different now. The beasts were very ferocious and wanted to attack them. This team was careless and fell under the attack. They worked together and finally subdued these beasts, but a man suddenly popped up out of nowhere. He looked a little strange, quite similar to the beasts. The team was surprised and thought that he was a monster beast that had taken
New orders were quickly issued for hunters to find out what was happening in Guzo Forest. The hunters were apprehensive about this mission. They knew no one wanted to go to that dreadful place again. The team of five inquired about the location of Treasure House and headed there in their miserable state. Dos’ injury was quite serious, but they could only save Tres, who was on the verge of death with the only pill they had. “It's okay. At worst, I can play the support role at home and wait for your return!” Dos said playfully, hoping that his teammates would stop worrying about him. The girl started sobbing. No one wanted to see their teammate hurt. When they arrived at Treasure House and joined the queue, Philip recognized their captain at a glance. “Are you not…” Philip was about to call his name when the man covered Philip's mouth. “We no longer call each other by our names. We're all known by our code names instead. I’m Uno, and these are my teammates.” Uno nervo
Although it felt like a forced transaction, Philip believed that his pill would bring surprises to the middle-aged man.… At the inn, Alton felt very sorry at the sight of his son. After the long journey, Cosmo looked very pale as if he might die at any time. The doctor had said that time was running out for him, but now, it seemed that his life span had been shortened by at least half. Oz looked at Cosmo in distress with tears welling in his eyes. He was very close with Cosmo, so he was heartbroken about his plight. He wished he could take Cosmo’s place. “It’d be great if I could go through the suffering on his behalf,” Oz said from the bottom of his heart. Alton sighed. There was no point in talking about it now. The pill was the only hope for saving his son. “Everything depends on this pill now. It’d be great if the store is telling the truth about the pill's effects.” Without any hesitation, Alton stuffed the pill into his son's mouth and wanted to help him swallow it.
Although the previous incident where Philip used a pill to save someone was quite amazing, it was not enough to convince Alton. Cosmo’s condition was different. A pill might be able to save an injured person but not necessarily his son. Reality proved him wrong. This pill was omnipotent and could handle any situation perfectly. Alton decided to bring his son to Treasure House. “Let’s go and thank the owner!” Alton said happily. Cosmo did not refuse. His upbringing taught him to repay kindness in kind. Although this incident sounded like a sales transaction, he knew that the owner of Treasure House was his savior. When they arrived, Treasure House was about to close for the day. The customers who did not manage to buy any pills were reluctant to leave. “Young lady, wait! Don’t close the door yet!” Alton anxiously rushed to stop Noelle and Aslan from closing the store. “Wait, I have something very important to say to you!” Noelle was puzzled. She remembered this man
“Is that really okay? We're from the countryside. It’s not appropriate for us to live in such a luxurious store!” They had to consider whether their actions would implicate others. The enemy would probably find them easily if they stayed in an inn. The probability of being discovered would be greatly reduced if they stayed in a private property like this. They were tempted by the offer but were also worried that it would bring trouble to Philip. “Don’t worry. No one can mess with me. I'm also curious what a man who looks like a beast is like.” The girl’s vivid description piqued Philip’s interest. “That guy is indescribably ugly!” The girl shuddered at the mention of the grotesque monster. She had never seen such an ugly thing before. While they were chatting, Alton walked in with the other two people. He did not expect to see Philip with guests. “Hello, we met this afternoon,” Alton greeted Philip. “I remember you. How may I help you?” Philip wondered. He could tel
