By the time Baldric was done with his carrot-and-stick approach, even the arrogant and domineering Chaplin would have to submit to him. Baldric had planned everything, but Philip ruined it! Chaplin was dead! Baldric was worried. Even though he did contact another alchemist, that guy was not that easy to control. Except for Chaplin, the other four level-five alchemists were very smart and would not succumb so easily. “Now that the cow is dead, there’s nothing left in the ancient ruins,” Philip smiled disdainfully with his true appearance. He had nothing to fear, especially not Baldric. As royalty, he would soon find out about Philip anyway. In that case, Philip might as well face it. “Damn it!” Baldric clenched his fists and watched as Philip left. He wanted to stop Philip, but he was helpless. Philip could easily deal with the cow but not Baldric. That showed the disparity in strength between the two. Baldric would undoubtedly be seeking death if he took action ag
“Baldric, are you just going to let them take the cow away?” June said unhappily. Of course, no one wanted to let Philip take it. However, they were powerless in the face of Philip’s strength. Baldric clenched his fists and looked at Aslan with gritted teeth, but he had no words to express his feelings. “We need to find their identities when we return! I’ll make them hand the cow over to us!” After saying this, Baldric was so angry that he spat a mouthful of blood and almost passed out. “That guy also has storage equipment in hand! He’s so bold to show off such a treasure in front of so many people!” Amid his anger, Baldric noticed Aslan’s wealth. Since he was so rich, he could not blame others for stealing from the rich to give to the poor. The rich referred to Aslan, while the poor referred to Baldric. As a prince, he did not even own storage equipment, which was a disgrace. Nico witnessed this exchange but stood silently aside. He still could not accept Chaplin’s dea
They left the ancient ruins very quickly. Fortunately, the owner of the ancient ruins was kind enough to leave them a way out. Philip instructed Aslan to buy a large house for everyone to settle down. “You guys will stay here from now on. Don’t cause trouble without my consent, and you have to bear in mind that this world is not as simple as you think.” After saying that, Philip released Mr. Lindell. Mr. Lindell had just finished practicing when he appeared in front of Philip before he realized what was going on. He looked at the people around him in blank confusion. “I came out just like that?” Mr. Lindell smiled brightly when he saw Philip. “My dear teacher, I can’t believe the great progress I made. Let me show you.” He walked up to Philip and showed him the pill he made. Philip glanced at the pill he made, which quality was better than he imagined. “Let’s put your pill aside. Take a look at your precious apprentice first.” After saying this, Philip pointed a
After Philip left, Mr. Lindell pulled the two kids over and asked them about recent events. “What happened during my absence? Why do I feel like everything is so surreal?” Mr. Lindell was puzzled and had no idea what brought Philip here. Lyle quickly told him everything. He knew that this person was Philip’s loyal subordinate. Otherwise, Philip would never develop him with such care. While Lyle scrutinized Mr. Lindell, Mr. Lindell was no different and even had the idea of checking out his talent. “Little one, your talent in alchemy must be quite good or Philip would've never accepted you as an apprentice. This teacher of mine has pretty high standards. In addition to character, he also values talent.” His remarks were undoubtedly tooting his own horn too. Only he knew how he had begged Philip to accept him as an apprentice back then. Lyle nodded and showed off his alchemy skills to Mr. Lindell. Mr. Lindell was blown away by Lyle’s performance and felt that things
“Teacher, that won’t be necessary,” Poppy expressed her thoughts. Lyle called him Mr. Lindell too. “That's right, Mr. Lindell, it’s unnecessary. Besides…” Lyle opened his mouth but hesitated to speak. He had no idea how to persuade Mr. Lindell. Mr. Lindell felt angry at their cowardly display. “You two are useless. I’m sure the teacher will be angry to see your weak conduct. Our teacher has a very bad temper. Anyone who dares to mess with him will be taught a good lesson, understand? “So, we have to do this. Since that guy wants to get rid of me, I’m going to make the first move!” Mr. Lindell expressed his opinion about this topic. Lyle could bear it no longer and blurted the truth, “You don't have to worry about him because he’s already dead.” Mr. Lindell was dumbfounded. He wondered what was going on. “He’s dead? How? He has always been very arrogant and domineering. How could someone kill him?” Mr. Lindell asked, unhappy that someone had taken action first. “He m
Aslan felt uneasy seeing everyone so busy. “Philip, I want to join them!” Aslan wanted to join the battlefield, but Philip stopped him. “No rush. I sense something weird.” Philip's perception was very powerful. He felt that something was fast approaching the academy. Moreover, it seemed that the other party came from deep underground. Aslan stood on guard. If Philip was so nervous, this had to be weird. “No one has time to waste. Only the two of us are free. Let's go and take care of this.” Philip stretched his muscles as if he was ready for a fight. Hearing that, Aslan was excited and knew it was time for a good fight. “Since I have nothing better to do, I might as well have some fun. Let’s see how powerful that guy is!” Aslan and Philip went outside and waited nervously for the arrival of the underground creature.…Fennel and the others were not doing well. Fennel was almost exhausted. Even though he had supernatural abilities, he felt tired. “Fortunately,
“Philip, we've been surrounded,” Aslan said to Philip warily. He knew that this thing was not simple, at least nothing he had seen before. “This thing is eerie Quite spooky, indeed.” Philip decided to wait and observe before making a move, sensing this strange atmosphere. At this moment, Philip suddenly felt something attacking him from behind. It was not a pleasant feeling. “Boo-hoo, is there a kind Samaritan willing to save me?” An androgynous voice rang in Philip's ears, making him feel very uncomfortable. The voice whistled in Philip’s ears like a ghost as if harassing Philip. Aslan heard the noise and frowned in displeasure. “Stop fooling around and come out at once!” he roared in anger. He wished he could catch this arrogant and domineering fellow and beat them up. Philip calmed down and searched through Verge Tower. He felt as if he had missed something. He looked around Verge Tower for a while and finally found a small flag. “I think this thing can control t
“Philip, I feel like the day is getting closer,” Aslan said in a low voice when everyone was present. His hunch was very accurate. Fennel nodded. He felt a bad premonition too. When everyone was gathered, the whole world shook. Philip frowned and looked outside. The sky had turned dark and gloomy. The others looked at Philip solemnly, waiting for his orders. They knew that the crisis was finally upon them. The people of Mistral Temple rushed back in horror. They did not expect this day to arrive so quickly. “Why has it been brought forward?” Everyone stood in front of Philip in a panic, waiting for his orders. He was the only person they could rely on now. Philip did not speak but observed the changes in the world. It was impossible to stop the changes from happening. Ordinary people huddled in their houses in fear, watching the changes in the world in shock. All communication signals had been disrupted, and only static remained on their TVs. Many people tried to ca
“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
“What's going on? What drug did he take? It’s so powerful!” Jeff exclaimed in horror. All his attacks were ineffective, so what about Hogster’s attacks? At this time, Hogster attacked Jeff. His invincible mode would only last a few minutes. He had to seize the opportunity to take Jeff down. However, Hogster was not worried at all. In his opinion, dealing with Jeff was just a matter of seconds. “Go to hell!” Hogster made his move. He launched a killing move without holding back at all. Jeff was no match for Hogster at all. He was sent flying and fell to the ground miserably. Everyone looked at him with pity. Jeff spat a mouthful of blood and looked at Hogster in horror. Hogster had become so strong that he was no match for him at all. “Hehe, is that all you can take?” Hogster sneered. He was about to kill Jeff when the latter took out a pill from his pocket and swallowed it. It was the same pill he had taken earlier. Sure enough, Jeff was back to normal after taking
“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
