“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
“What's going on? What time is it? Why is the store closed so early? This unprofessionalism is outrageous!” “That's right. Old men like us came all the way to buy some pills to try, but they're closed for the day. Are they serious about doing business?” They had weathered a fair bit of storm, so everyone treated them with respect. They had come in person but were greeted with closed doors, so they were not happy about it. More importantly, they thought they had finally found a cure for their old ailments. However, since they could not buy a pill, that was not going to happen. Philip and the others heard the commotion and felt exasperated by their impatience. Philip told Lyle to handle them. He was the youngest and usually spoke with tact, so he should handle this group of old men quite well. Lyle nodded and walked out with disdain. “Gentlemen, please stop knocking on the door. We're closed for the day!” Lyle said helplessly. Aslan did not have a good impression of these o
“It’ll take a long time for this little fox to become a human. I think you would've found your other half before that happened.” After exchanging some pleasantries, Philip bade farewell to the shopkeeper and left without further ado. They had to hurry up to find the person Adam was looking for.… Meanwhile, Luther hurried back home unhappily. He never dreamed that he would suffer such humiliation one day. As soon as he returned home, a man greeted him. It was none other than his father, who doted on his son. “What's wrong?” He was surprised to see his son ignoring him. His son was always flashy and arrogant, so his behavior was quite unusual. Luther was in no mood to pay attention to his father. He returned to the room angrily without saying a word. “Guard, what’s going on? Did someone bully my son?” Luther's father, Klein, glared at the guard unhappily, blaming the guard for everything. The guard kneeled in fear and felt sorry for himself. “The young sir was brows
The shopkeeper was clearly relieved by Philip’s remark and direct approach. However, he was also embarrassed by Philip’s bluntness. He smiled at Philip awkwardly as an apology. “Why don’t you recommend a pet for my buddy? It should be a stronger one, preferably a combat type!” Philip glanced at Carlos. He knew that Carlos was too embarrassed to take the initiative. Carlos looked at Philip gratefully, letting out a shy chuckle. The shopkeeper recommended several pets to them. Carlos was dazzled by the sight and wanted them all. Adam looked at the scene with satisfaction. Although he had a high position, he did not have a decent pet either. It was difficult to have a pet in their world. With a wave of his hand, Philip generously bought a pet for each of them. At this time, Philip heard a whine from somewhere. He turned his head curiously and looked for the source of the sound. “What’s that noise?” Philip looked at the shopkeeper in confusion, unable to find the source of
Luther was at a loss for how to react. If the rabbit could speak, it had to be stronger than his pet. Although his pet was very powerful, it was just an ordinary creature that could understand some basic instructions and handle normal interactions. A talking pet was simply to die for. “Wow, how can that monster pet speak? It’s a force to be reckoned with.” Luther was shocked to see a talking pet. It was enviable to have such a powerful monster. Before this, he mocked the rabbit for not having any ability, but the tide had turned. He was almost going crazy with jealousy and wished that he could take the rabbit for himself. “I didn't bring my pet along, so I’m afraid I can’t show it to you. Losers like you don’t deserve to see my pet.” Luther acted full of snobbery and disdain, but he clutched his purse awkwardly. In fact, not only did he bring his pet out, but he had also been ready to show it off at any time. After all, his pet was very powerful and could grow bigger or sma
Philip was annoyed by the guy’s ridicule and simply wanted to keep a distance from him. “I don’t care who you are. I don’t want to pay attention to a loser.” After saying this, Philip could not wait to leave this disgusting place. He felt sick at the sight of the guy’s ugly face. Carlos lost the mood to watch the fun. He shook his head helplessly and turned around to leave. However, that guy was used to getting his way. He did not plan to let them leave in one piece. Anyone who offended him had to die. “Surround him. Don’t let him run away!” The man glared at Philip with disdain, sure that Philip would die. Philip was quickly surrounded by a large group of people. They were angry that Philip dared to go against their boss. “Who are you? Where did you come from? How dare you disobey our boss? Didn't he tell you to stop?” a guard yelled angrily. He was clearly a competent lackey, loudly accusing Philip as if he was going to stand up for his boss. “What are you looking at?
The street was very crowded with not only various pet monsters for sale but also a myriad of pills and techniques, which looked impressive. Philip was happy to see this. This place was clearly better than any other place he had visited before. It was very different from the other places he knew. “This is the place I’ve always wanted to visit.” Philip could not contain his excitement and wanted to bring all his friends and family over. “After finding your crush, I’ll bring all my people over and show them this place.” Rabbit was surprised to hear Philip’s high evaluation of this place. He simply felt that something was unusual about this place, but it was nothing too special. “Don’t miss this great bargain. Our pets are the best. You look unfamiliar. Is this your first time here? I can tell you some things and satisfy your curiosity. I’m sure my goods are nothing you've seen before.” Seeing that Philip and the others did not own a pet monster, the seller kept promoting his g
“You must be referring to the lark people. What do you want with them? They're not to be trifled with. You’ll be in trouble if you mess with them.” Everyone was delighted to hear about the lark people. It was great that someone knew something. Adam was very excited to find a clue as soon as they arrived. He had thought it would take a lot of effort to find something, but reality proved otherwise. “The lark people can be regarded as the overlords here. You can find out about them easily. I'm just an ordinary old woman, so I can't tell you too much. You should approach other people if you want to find out more. Maybe you can find a storyteller. I’m sure they can tell you some very important information.” The old lady was clearly unwilling to disclose anything, so everyone was disappointed. In that case, they could not force her. “Thank you very much. At least you gave us an inkling about what to do. We wouldn’t know so many things if it weren't for you.” Adam thanked the old
“I heard that her family is quite complicated. They seem quite troublesome.” Hearing that, everyone wondered what Adam meant. It seemed that he would face problems in pursuing a relationship with this woman. Carlos looked at Adam awkwardly and sighed. “It doesn't matter. We don’t have to worry about that. Let's just take things one step at a time.” Rabbit calmly drifted around with Philip, feeling quite good. “What's there to worry about? I say the old monk has nothing better to do than worry about trivial matters. It’d be embarrassing if so many of us couldn’t bring a woman back.” Until now, Rabbit felt that the other party was just an ordinary woman, so he did not think that there was anything to worry about. They quickly joined the line to enter the city. To Philip's surprise, there was no entrance fee at all. Moreover, their appearance and attire looked no different from the others. Philip and his friends calmly entered the place, and Philip stood on guard. He had a
Philip felt helpless at the sight of this vast starry sky and suddenly felt that maybe coming here was not the right choice. They arrived without knowing anything about this place, so they might encounter various dangers. “I’m curious about the woman you've been looking for. She must be quite extraordinary,” Philip said curiously, baffled about this matter. Hearing that, Adam shook his head helplessly. He was really clueless about everything. “I only know that I can come here and find her with the key. I don’t even know where she is. We can only search aimlessly in this starry sky.” Philip was dumbfounded by Adam’s incompetence. “I thought we’d be teleported to her home or a fixed location, so I don’t know what’s the deal with this. I have a feeling that I’ve been tricked.” Adam sighed helplessly. “Let's just wander around. I’m sure we can find something somehow,” Carlos comforted Adam, but he was not optimistic about it either. He knew that they probably could not find the
Adam had to reevaluate Philip’s strength. He used to think that Philip was simply the best of his generation. Although powerful, he was not invincible. However, the ability to change certain orders and rules was not something that just anyone had. It would not be far-fetched to call Philip the chosen one favored by the heavens. Philip told Carlos to bury Bryce before forgetting about him. Carlos quickly handled his affairs, packed his bags, and got ready to set off with Philip. Adam also waited for Philip without much luggage on hand. Philip stuffed Rabbit into the Verge Tower space. He had to bring Rabbit along with him or the latter would be up to no good. “Rabbit, stay in Verge Tower and stop bothering me.” Rabbit was upset to hear that he had to stay in Verge Tower but still felt happy that Philip was willing to take him along. “Next, the two of you need to relax. I’ll wrap you with my energy. Don't try to resist or you’ll only end up hurting yourself,” Philip said.
