“That’s great. I’ll send one of my young family members to send the money to you this afternoon!” Although they had storage rings, the space was not big enough to store so much money. Such things were usually kept at home. The storage equipment here had a few square meters of storage space at most. Even an old commander like him only had five square meters of storage space. Philip did not care for it at all. Even his pets at home were equipped with hundreds of square meters of storage space, so this was meaningless to him. After Philip gave the pill to the commander, he sat aside happily and started doing business. Not everyone was as rich as the commander or bold enough to buy a pill and try it. Although they had the money, they still felt the pinch and would rather wait and see. Philip and the others simply looked at the people around them. It seemed that no one had the desire to purchase anything. “Keep watch here. After you’re done with the video games, remember to
“The old commander took a pill and bought another one just now. Do you think the store found someone to put on an act?” “I don't think so. Why should the old commander put on an act here? Besides, a well-respected person like him wouldn’t do this.” “I think you underestimate the store too much. The old commander is a prominent person. He wouldn’t put on an act for a small favor, so I think this store can be trusted!” Although everyone discussed excitedly, no one bought anything, so Philip returned to the backyard. Meanwhile, Monty took the pill to his friend's house. He had many good friends about his age, and all of them were seriously ill. When they were on the battlefield back then, they went through a lot of hardships and suffered from various ailments. Now that they were old, their health deteriorated, and they felt as if their lives would be snuffed out at any time. Obviously, they would die if they did not receive treatment soon. They were different from ordina
Not many people would consume pills on this continent. In fact, talented young people were prohibited from taking pills. After all, the residues could not be removed and would continue to accumulate inside the body. As for these soldiers, they ate a lot of pills because they had to maintain their physical strength and fight. They also took a lot of pills after fighting to treat their illnesses. Over time, their health deteriorated, and even the best alchemist could not help them. Even the best alchemist could not resolve the problem of the residue, which worried them. The pill Monty took earlier was different. After so many years of taking pills, he could clearly tell whether Philip's pill was effective. Philip's pill melted in his mouth and tasted wonderful. He did not have to absorb the pill before the effects reached his internal organs. Moreover, he did not sense any residue at all! Without any residue, there was no need to worry about side effects. After taking the p
“Everyone, you may stop worrying. I have something good here!” Several old men gathered together, and all of them looked troubled. One of their comrades might die in a few days! All of them had a few years to live, but one of the comrades had a shorter life span. This person was the most seriously injured back then. He sacrificed a lot and took a lot of pills. He only had a few days left to live now. He might suffer a relapse from his old injuries and die in a day or two. Everyone was angry when they saw Monty entering with a smile on his face. “What’s wrong with you? Our comrade is dying, but you dare to watch the fun with a smile on your face?!” “You’re simply heartless. I've misjudged you!” “Indeed, weren’t you out looking for a cure? Why did you return so soon? Have you found a cure?” Everyone’s comments expressed their dissatisfaction with Monty's attitude. After all, they were very worried about their comrade, but Monty was so blatant, which was very annoying.
“What are you waiting for? Take out the pill quickly. Don’t let our comrade die!” “That’s right, I can’t believe that you’re lucky enough to find a cure. Is it from a new store?” Everyone knew that Monty had gone to all the pill stores and tried various pills to save himself and others. Since he had the best health among them, he was the guinea pig. As a result, his health deteriorated to the point of being critical. Everyone was excited. Any little effect would be considered good enough. Monty took out the pill, and everyone was excited to see the exquisite box. “That’s great. Give him the pill. Let’s hope he returns to normal!” Everyone was expectant, hoping their comrade could be cured. “Don’t doubt it. You can take a closer look to see if I’ve returned to normal!” Monty released his energy to show everyone that he was well and his strength had improved significantly. At this time, everyone realized the difference in Monty. After careful observation, they discovere
“This is simply amazing. What’s going on? Did you take the pill too?” “It’s awesome that one pill can have such an effect. I can’t believe it.” “No matter what, let's give it a try. We can try other methods if this doesn’t work!” They stuffed the pill into the mouth of the old man lying on the bed. Everyone wanted to help him absorb the pill, but the pill simply melted in his mouth. It surged into his internal organs and spread to his limbs at a speed visible to the naked eye. “What’s going on?” Everyone was sick of saying this. They watched dumbfounded, at a loss for words. They had never seen such a powerful pill before. A few minutes later, they examined the old man and found that he had returned to normal. The bedridden old man slowly opened his eyes. He was surprised that he could wake up. “Wasn’t I in a coma? Why am I awake? Have I died but you guys died earlier than me? It’s good that we can meet in paradise again!” He wiped away his tears as he spoke. His form
Everyone respectfully called the old man Twine, who was a great contributor to Solstice City. Solstice City was so orderly because they established the rules. These old men were powerful and righteous, so they set various rules. Without them, the rules would not have been enforced, and the residents would not have been able to live and work in peace. Twine Barr examined himself and found something amazing. “This is wonderful. I've returned to normal. Even my old injuries are gone!” Although he was always a serious person, he was shouting in excitement now. After so many years, he regarded himself as a walking corpse and waited to die in bed. He never thought that he would return to normal one day, and he even felt well enough to fight again. “I've returned to my peak condition when I was young. I have nothing to fear even if I have to fight for three days and three nights! I think I can continue to practice too!” Twine smacked his thigh with pride and excitement.
“When I was bedridden back then, I vowed that I’d try to achieve the next level once I could continue practicing again. Now that I’ve recovered and restored my ability to practice again, I can't miss such a good opportunity!” Thinking of this, Twine turned to Monty. “Where did you get that pill from? Who's the talented genius who made the pill?” Twine was in a frenzy and could not wait to meet this amazing genius. “Someone with that ability must be about the same age as us. We can have a good chat over some good food and wine.” Twine asked his maids to make preparations. He was not short of good food and wine. Monty sighed helplessly. Twine was very impatient and did not give him the chance to say anything at all. “Don’t be hasty. Let me tell you about the situation first.” Monty told the group about Philip, which surprised them. His age alone was baffling enough. It was shocking to hear that he was a young man in his 20s. Everyone thought Monty was joking, including Tw
“They killed Violet right before my eyes. This is too much. I have to avenge Violet! I’m going to rip them into pieces!” The snake women cursed as they retreated, but their fear was apparent. They never thought they would encounter such strong enemies. However, Lyle and the others did not relent. It was easy to take care of these creatures with their strength. Thus, they did not let the snake women escape. “Stop them from running away. Let’s show them how powerful we are.” Lyle waved his hand, and his men caught the snake women who tried to run. “Cut off their tails as a gift for their matriarch,” Aslan said leisurely with a wave of his hand. An eye for an eye, that was the law of the jungle. They brought this upon themselves, so no one sympathized with them. Even Foxy was indifferent to the development of things. “We must teach them a lesson. They're up to no good. I've heard of their evil deeds before,” Foxy added fuel to the fire. Everyone looked over curiously, wo
The upper bodies of the snake were human while their lower bodies were a snake's tail, which looked very strange and out of place. “The monster that took Philip away was quite pretty, so why are these monsters so ugly?” As a person who placed importance on appearance, Lyle complained in annoyance at this unfair treatment. The snake women understood human language and scowled at Lyle's words, shocked by the insult. “Stupid human, you’re really bold to humiliate us like this. Are you not afraid of death?”The snake women were very unhappy and rushed toward Lyle angrily, upset with his arrogance. Lyle and the others sprang into action excitedly. It was interesting to see everyone fighting without hesitation. “Brothers, since we've provided you with weapons, do your best and don’t let us down.” With Lyle and Aslan's motivation, everyone started fighting excitedly. With their strength, it was easy to take care of some snakes. However, the snake women were a force to be reckon
Philip looked at the snake monster curiously. This creature was clearly not a thousand years old. According to rumors, the ancient monster that lived in the palace was at least ten thousand years old. “I attacked you because I'm interested in you. Did you think I was just making things difficult for you? The person behind me wants to see you. Why don't you come with me?” The female snake commander was expectant. She hoped Philip would agree without thinking and save her the trouble. Philip was clearly the strongest among them. As long as he was taken away, the other weaklings would have no choice but to kneel and beg for mercy. “I knew there was someone behind you.” Philip smiled. Since the other party had made preparations, he would oblige. Yule was worried. He did not want Philip to leave with the other party. It was a big risk. “Philip, don’t go. This place is full of dangers. If you go with them, these monsters will devour you in no time. Everyone knows how scary thes
Although the matriarch did not have a good impression of humans, she longed to visit that crowded and lively place. “I’ll lure them over and get rid of them one by one. It’ll be a piece of cake,” a female commander in armor stepped forward and said smugly. It would be easy to quickly get rid of these useless guys with their strength. Meanwhile, Philip and the others were hurrying along the way, feeling all the more that something was wrong. “We seem to be trapped in a maze.” Philip frowned as he looked around, realizing the problem. They had been running around in circles with no way of getting out. “Hehe, you guys are quite smart to figure out that you’ve been trapped in a maze. In that case, why don’t you offer someone as a sacrifice so that you can leave this scary maze?” As Philip and the others were discussing the predicament, a terrifying voice rang out. Everyone was horrified upon hearing this ghastly voice and looked around in a panic, wondering what was going on.
“I’m surprised to find trespassers on my territory after so many years. In that case, let me show you what I can do.” The charming woman would pick up a glass of red liquid next to her for a sip from time to time. Many maids stood around waiting to serve her. “Find some people to greet these uninvited guests. Let them know it’s not that easy to trespass on my territory. This isn’t a place where they can come and go as they please. They should've remained in Deadly Arena instead of goofing around here. They’re simply asking for death.” A triumphant look flashed in the woman's eyes, and she finished the red liquid in the glass in one gulp. “What a bunch of losers.” At this moment, one of the maids approached the woman with a bow. “Matriarch, I think the man in the lead who gave out the pills is quite strong. He seems to meet your requirements,” the maid said tentatively, setting her sights on Philip. The woman frowned at the screen in surprise, but it was quickly replaced w
“It's just an ordinary snake. Why are you so afraid of it? Look, it’s not even poisonous.” Aslan toyed with the snake in his hand calmly. Everyone looked at this scene, shocked to see Aslan toying with that unknown creature so boldly. “There’s really no need to be so scared. This snake is nothing special. I can even wear it on my waist as a belt.” Aslan tied the snake around his waist casually. The next moment, he found that his hands had become red and swollen. Everyone was horrified at this scene and surprised by this development. “Hey, have you been poisoned? Get away from the snake!” “Stop putting up a strong front. That snake is obviously poisonous.” Everyone urged Aslan to throw the snake away, but Aslan found that his hands were stuck and he could not get rid of the snake at all. “I want to throw it away, but it’s stuck to my hand. I can’t do anything.” Aslan looked at Philip in a panic. He had never encountered such a situation and was at a loss for what to do.
“Of course, I do.” Rabbit smiled smugly. Philip was curious at Rabbit’s reply. “In that case, tell me about it.” Philip quickly collected his emotions. Since Rabbit knew about it, they did not have to waste time and take the risk to explore. Rabbit nodded and looked at the luxurious palace around it calmly. “This palace looks familiar. It should be the snake monster’s territory. I’ve always been at odds with that snake monster, so I hate this place.” Rabbit took out a handkerchief and covered its nose with it. “It stinks so bad that I can smell the stench from a long distance.” Rabbit scowled, clearly hostile toward the snakes living here. Philip and Rabbit whispered in a corner, and he quickly understood the situation of this palace. The owner of this palace was a snake demon who had lived for 10,000 years. It was not only powerful but also bloodthirsty. If it had not been trapped in the palace over the years, it would've devoured the entirety of East Hill Island by
“Dude, are you okay?” Everyone ran to him in a panic, at a loss for what to do. They looked at Philip before turning to the poor victim again. Philip took out a pill from his pocket and asked Lyle to pass it to him. However, Lyle found that the other party had been corroded down to his bones. Everyone was dumbfounded by this scene. It was shocking to find that their comrade who fought side-by-side with them had been taken without even leaving a whole body intact. Everyone fell silent as the pile of white bones vanished before their eyes. Everyone was flabbergasted by the strong acidity of the rain. “This damn acid rain took my man’s life!” Yule scowled. Yule thought that the snakes were difficult enough to deal with. Unexpectedly, the palace affected them more than the snakes. Everyone sighed upon hearing that. “No wonder the snakes stay away from this palace. This place is scarier than they are!” “I thought this was a very safe place, but it turns out to be the mos
“The air in this place contains corrosive energy. If you want to leave alive, put it on without further delay.” Hearing that, Yule put on the cloak in a panic. He knew that Philip would never lie about this. Moreover, he did feel some discomfort. Philip became more curious about the hidden secrets in this place. “Corrosive energy in the air? Hehe. This is getting interesting. I’ve never encountered such a situation in all my years of travel. What an eye-opener,” Philip sneered. He was very intrigued by this mysterious palace. He had never felt such a sense of crisis before. This palace was simply over the top. At this time, one of the guild members felt uncomfortable, so he took off the cloak he was wearing. He wanted to adjust his clothes. The cloak was very well-fitting and would adjust according to the person’s body shape. However, his clothes under the cloak felt tight and uncomfortable. After he took off his cloak, he put it aside and quickly adjusted his clothes. He
