“Let’s stop making wild guesses and wait for Yule's father to explain. This creature doesn’t belong to this continent, so no one knows what’s going on.” Philip reached out and gently touched the scales in amazement. He felt that something was wrong with this mermaid. With that touch, he found that the mermaid’s scales were better than those of a dragon. Philip once found a dragon scale by chance, but the dragon scale was not as tough as the mermaid's scales. Moreover, the mermaid's scales could change into various shapes, which was amazing. “If the scales are used to make a weapon, it’ll definitely be the best treasure. Not only can it attack and defend, but also…” Before Philip could finish his words, he heard Yule's father coughing violently. He seemed in pretty bad shape. “Rascal, go and look at the fish. She’s not an ordinary fish but a mermaid I found by chance! According to ancient records, there are many similar creatures in the world of the gods, and they're a force
“You’re right. The mermaid is such a mysterious creature. How can anyone cure its poison?” Stanley smiled wryly, feeling sorry for himself. “Philip, you have to find a way to save my father. I’ll do anything for you if you can save him!” Yule grabbed Philip’s shoulders with agitation. He begged Philip and almost knelt at his feet. In Yule's opinion, Philip was an omnipotent and powerful existence. There was nothing he could not do. Likewise, Aslan and the others shared the same thought. Therefore, they were surprised when Philip said that he could not save Stanley. Philip sighed. In the past, he had been to places of a lower civilization where the natives were not very strong. He could do whatever he wanted and no one could do much to him even if they wanted to. However, Philip was not familiar with places of a higher civilization. Even Rabbit only knew a little and was hesitant to speak. Hence, Philip was not confident he could save Stanley. “Maybe that creature came fro
“Ugly woman, don’t forget who saved you. Besides, you’re so seriously injured that I don’t think you have much backing behind you. Do you really want to oppose us? If things come to a fight, we’ll make sure to take you down first!” Aslan was smart and knew that this mermaid was a force to be reckoned with, but he was more aware that he had nothing to fear if she wanted to use force against them. Even if the so-called gods invaded, the worst outcome would be death for all parties. Before they died, they would drag as many people as they could with them, which was everyone's usual way of doing things. “You!” The mermaid was so angry that she wanted to kill someone but she was too weak to do anything. “Stop trying to infuriate us. We don't mean to hurt you. You don't have to be so harsh,” Philip said calmly, wondering why she was so cranky. “Hmph!” The mermaid snorted without another word, unwilling to speak to Philip. Philip smiled helplessly at her snort. “Why don't yo
“By the way, my name is Marina. You can call me Her Highness Princess Mermaid.” Philip did not take the mermaid’s introduction seriously. He was not a lapdog and would not call her by her title. Calling her by name was good enough for her. “If I help you open the portal to the world of the gods, what can I get out of it? As a businessman, I value profit very much. I don't mind helping you if I can profit from it,” Philip said with a smile. Philip knew that he picked up the key to the world of the gods earlier. In that case, he had to take this negotiation seriously and get as much as he could from Marina. Marina's eyes widened upon hearing this, surprised that Philip found the key to the world of the gods. “Did you find the key after going to the lifeless sea?” Marina's hands trembled with excitement. Philip nodded calmly and took out a blue stone from his pocket to prove his words. Nothing was better proof than the stone. Marina was ecstatic. “That’s great. Since you f
Yule knew he was not worthy to get involved in this matter but he wanted a share of the pie. He was uncomfortable with this uneasiness. “You need to improve your strength and stop being so cowardly. Although I don't know what it takes to enter that world, your current level is obviously not going to cut it. Improving yourself is a means of protecting yourself.” Philip did not put it so explicitly because he had a good impression of Yule. If Yule could improve himself, Philip did not mind taking him along. Lyle and the others had no worries. As Philip's subordinates, they had the right to follow him. Philip was surprised by this unexpected gain and could not wait to deal with the snake monster now. Since Sienna tried every means to find the Binary Herb, she must have a way to recover her strength. Otherwise, she could not use the herb even if she got it. At this time, Mason returned in a miserable state. He never dreamed that Philip could defeat him so easily. Philip was
Seeing the snake carcass, Sienna was dumbfounded. She could not believe that she would see her husband's corpse here. “What's going on? How did things turn out this way?” Sienna was very agitated and grabbed Philip in disbelief. “Where did you see him? Why was he cut in half? What's going on? Tell me!” Philip was surprised by Sienna’s emotional outburst. “I thought you were looking for the Binary Herb to save your husband,” Philip said with a smile. He did not sympathize with Sienna. Both snakes were up to no good. Even if they had a good relationship, they lived in vain. “I knew that someone locked him up but I didn’t know it was in that mysterious sea. I’d have saved him in person if I’d known about it!” Sienna said mournfully. Philip looked at Sienna doubtfully. He felt that her behavior was not normal. She must be up to no good. “So, what do you want to do now? Aren't you here to find the Binary Herb?” Aslan suddenly appeared and scoffed. He did not have a good im
When Sienna was still a young and innocent girl back then, she was very excited to share an amazing pill she found with her husband, but he tricked her and stole it from her. When Sienna realized that her husband had eaten the pill, she sealed the pill’s medicinal properties with powerful means so it was useless even though he had taken the pill. Therefore, when Sienna saw the snake’s body earlier, she knew that the pill’s medicinal properties were still intact without being consumed yet. It was a blessing in disguise, and her hard work paid off. “Hehe, Philip actually thought I was a devoted lover. He has no idea how important this corpse is to me. Speaking of which, I have to thank that fool.” Sienna’s initial plan was to recover her strength with the Binary Herb, but getting this corpse produced the same effect, so Sienna was very excited. Sienna laughed wildly as she felt her strength recovering rapidly. Mason huddled in the corner quietly for fear that Sienna would e
“I haven't forgotten my promise. Once we reach the world of the gods, I’ll fulfill my promise to you and make you a queen in no time.” The old man smiled and stroked his beard, which looked quite obnoxious because he had very little beard left. “You can take my word for it. You’ll have a bright future as long as you follow Upper God Quinn!” The other party painted a pretty picture for Sienna as if he had a good grasp of her thoughts. At this time, Mason walked out of the room to ask Sienna about the pills. Unexpectedly, he overheard this conversation. He was surprised and could not believe his ears. “My queen, is this old man an almighty god from another world?” Mason did not hide his presence because he knew Sienna would discover him. In that case, it was better to step forward and maybe Sienna would involve him in her secrets. Sienna was so immersed in her own world that she did not notice Mason's arrival. Sienna was startled by Mason’s sudden interruption. “W
“He lost his family when their enemies sought revenge while he was very young, so he's quite pitiful in a way.” Philip was not concerned about it. The life story of a loser had nothing to do with him. Moreover, Bryce was clearly up to no good. Getting to know him was a waste of time. “I found all the information he researched. To be honest, I’d think highly of him if he weren't up to no good.” Rabbit waved his paw smugly. He had looked through Bryce’s things and knew exactly what he had researched. Philip looked at a bottle of potion and could tell everything at a glance. “He’s a genius, indeed, but there’s no saving someone with bad intentions.” Philip shook his head helplessly. Bryce could only blame his bad luck for encountering them today. Carlos quickly took care of Bryce. There was no point in keeping such an evil villain. There was no need to be charitable in this situation. Adam looked at the room and sighed helplessly at Bryce’s unfortunate end. Although he had
Philip was curious about this situation. Since he could not get any information from the stubborn hooded man, he would find out indirectly. “That’s enough. Take him away. He has no value to us anyway. It's better to send him away.,” Philip said with disdain and did not take him seriously at all. The hooded man was shocked to hear that Philip was sending him away. He was nervous and afraid that Philip would do something to him. Although he was selfish and unreasonable, he was also a coward and afraid of death. Everyone sighed helplessly at his mournful wails. Adam closed his eyes, unwilling to get involved. Seeing this, Philip believed that Adam was unwilling to pay attention to his nephew, but he was still curious. If they were closely related, why would this guy's family sever all ties with Adam? It was advantageous to be on good terms with Adam. Not only would they receive guidance on practice, but they could also listen to his lectures from time to time. For example,
Philip and the old monk greeted each other happily as if they were old friends. Carlos was surprised to see Philip on such good terms with the high and mighty old monk. This was something he had never even dared to dream about. It was unbelievable that he could sit and drink happily with the old monk one day. “Let me introduce my friends.” Philip calmly introduced everyone around him, ignoring Carlos’ anxiety. Carlos stood up when he saw the old monk. “Hello, my name is Carlos. I admire you very much. I never thought that I'd be able to meet you one day. It’s my honor.” Carlos was happy and excited to get more perks than the guild leader. The old monk was quite friendly. After greeting Carlos with a smile, he looked at Philip curiously, wondering what he was up to. “I want to find out if you know someone.” After saying this, Philip asked Carlos to bring the hooded man out. The guy was tied up tightly and looked pitiful. More importantly, his clothes had been stripped off,
The hooded man woke up very soon, and he could not believe that Philip caught him. “What's going on? How did you catch me? This is impossible.” He was very confident in himself and knew that no one could catch him so easily, but reality had just proven him wrong. He had no choice but to believe it. “What's impossible? You underestimate me too much!” Rabbit snapped furiously. “What’s your name?” Philip stared at the man curiously. He had a feeling that this person was the same as the old monk. “Rabbit, call the old monk over. I want to speak to him. He may not know you, so you need to tell him who you are.” After interrogating this man, Philip wanted to speak to the old monk and find out his opinion about this hooded man. Since the two gave him the same feeling, they had to be connected somehow. Rabbit hopped over to find the old monk. He knew that the old monk was the best referral for this matter because he was very powerful and knowledgeable. The old monk was resting
On the other hand, Lincoln was shocked to find that Hogster was dead. Lincoln had been watching the situation and knew that Philip was a powerful person. Everything was most likely related to Philip. However, he never thought that Philip could make people stronger. He had heard of some special circumstances that could improve someone’s strength. He had roughly guessed the implications but never paid much attention to the matter. In his opinion, the Hexa Guild was already ruined. If he wanted to save the guild, he had to get rid of Alain and his people. Lincoln had lost trust in the guild. If he had not left his seclusion by chance, he would not have bothered about anything. “Forget it. Stop throwing your weight around. Since your son died a tragic death, I won’t make things difficult for you,” Carlos said in disdain.He knew what Alain had done, so he did not have a good impression of him. Although his remark sounded a little hurtful, it felt good to say it. The other guil
“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
