Instructor Lauder said with a smile, “Attributes refer to your affinity with a certain substance. The higher the rating, the easier it is for you to manipulate and use such substances. Take your fire attribute as an example. Most people will naturally get burned when they encounter a fire, but for people with fire attributes, once their potential is developed, fire will do almost zero harm to them.” As he said that, Instructor Lauder snapped his fingers quite pretentiously. Instantly, flames sprouted between his fingers. “What do you feel?” Instructor Lauder asked. Philip stared at the fire between Instructor Lauder’s fingers and frowned as he said, “I seem to feel like it’s like a newborn baby, very cheerful and lively.” Instructor Lauder was startled before he laughed and said, “A baby? This is the first time I heard this metaphor, but maybe that's how you feel.” With that said, Instructor Lauder beckoned Philip to stretch out his hand. Then, he transferred the pulsating fi
Fennel smiled and said, “I was in the same state back then as you are now. When I found out about the door, my worldview collapsed too. Many things that we think are illusory actually exist.” Philip turned to Fennel and asked, “Don't you think these things are beyond what people can understand now?” Fennel shrugged and said, “What about it? It’s like the people during medieval times. They couldn't understand these high-tech products like cell phones, cars, and satellites that we have now either. “Besides, fairy tales about flying to the moon. Hasn’t that already been realized now?” Fennel continued, “Times are different. We can't use our current vision to look at future development. In the past, I also felt that such a special power was beyond the world—a divine power. But after entering the door, I realized that the world has always been like this. It’s just that we’ve been detached from it and became ignorant.” Philip turned to Fennel and asked, “What do you mean?” Fennel
Hearing this, Wynn pushed Philip away, looked at him seriously, and asked, “Where are you going?” Philip ruffled the strands of hair that hung beside Wynn’s ear and said with a laugh, “Don't worry, I’m just settling some personal matters.” Wynn mumbled, “You always make me worry. I’m your wife. Why won’t you tell me anything?” Philip was startled. He also wanted to tell Wynn but there were many things that he could not. Those things would only land Wynn and Mila into greater conspiracy and danger. Bringing Wynn back this time was the result of Philip’s long consideration. Only by bringing her back could he ensure her and Mila’s safety. Seeing the dilemma on Philip’s face, Wynn wiped her tears and said, “Okay, I won’t force you. I just want to tell you that I’m your wife and I’ll always stand behind you and wait for you. No matter what you do, I’ll support you.” Philip smiled as he stroked Wynn’s cheek and said, “I know. You should rest now.” A night passed without wor
At that moment! Philip felt as if his head had exploded. He watched helplessly as the heavy truck that was out of control and with death-defying speed came crashing toward Wynn who was standing by the roadside with her big belly. She was still waving and smiling at him! Philip had no time to think at all. With all his strength, he pushed open the glass door of the convenience store and rushed toward Wynn! At that moment, he realized that the short distance of ten meters was like an insurmountable chasm! She was too far away from him! His eyes were red as he stared at the heavy truck that was about to crash into Wynn. He waved his arms hysterically and roared, “Run! Run!” At that moment, Wynn also noticed the heavy truck that was coming for her! In that instant, her pupils quickly dilated. She slowly turned to look at Philip, who was rushing toward her. Tears ran down her cheeks in a flash. She only had a few seconds to say goodbye. Philip watched as the heavy truck
“No way, I can’t leave you here!” Philip roared and tried his best to pull Tiger out. Tiger howled in misery. He looked at his right leg that was caught in the frame, laughed wryly, and said, “Mr. Clarke, I’m begging you. Leave me here. My leg is stuck and I can’t get out. Now, go, leave quickly!” “Shut up! I’ll get you out!” With red eyes, Philip got up and looked around. Suddenly, he saw the fire ax in the nearby mall. He ran over and smashed the glass of the fire cabinet with a punch. Then, he took out the fire ax and rushed back to the side of the car. He chopped at the car frame furiously, but it was not something that could be cut with a fire ax. Tiger looked at Philip who was chopping away at the car frame and shouted, “Mr. Clarke, let it be. It’s too late. Go quickly and leave me here. This is what I owe you and your wife.” Philip did not answer. Puff! At this time, the rear end of the car started to catch fire. Seeing this scene, the trapped Tiger became
With no time to think, Philip quickly got into the car and frantically rushed to the nearby women’s hospital! On the way, he called Victor and said anxiously, “Quickly notify the women’s hospital. Wynn is bleeding!” On this side, Victor had just come out of the women’s hospital and was about to go back. When he received the call from Philip at this time, his scalp went numb and his entire face was full of shock. He turned his head to look at the dean and a group of doctors standing behind him. He shouted, “Hurry, Madam is bleeding! She’s bleeding!” When the gray-haired dean heard Victor’s words at this moment, he was taken aback and said, “Master Bell, don’t joke with me. Madam has just gone through the check-up. She’s in very good condition and the fetus is very healthy. There are still two months to go before the due date.” Victor had no time to explain to him and yelled, “Cut the crap. Mr. Clarke will be here soon!” The dean saw Victor’s expression that did not seem fake
On this side, Philip drove the car at top speed and naturally attracted countless onlookers who frantically took pictures! “Gosh, is that the person? Did you capture it? He looks very young and handsome!” Some smitten young girls on the roadside exclaimed excitedly. Such a simple scene blew up on the social media platform in the next ten minutes! It quickly became the top hottest topic! Everyone was watching and discussing. Even those young masters who usually showed off their luxury cars and luxury watches, upon watching this scene, commented, [In terms of showing off one’s wealth, I take my hats off to this person. To use cash to clear out a path without any obstructions on all eight major roads is simply unheard of.] Back to the scene of Wynn’s incident. At this moment, several black BMWs were parked on the side of the road. Seven or eight men and women in black leather jackets and trench coats got down from the vehicles. They were all wearing sunglasses, looking ver
This castle built in the last century was closely guarded. As far as the eye could see, the place was full of foreign bodyguards in black suits and sunglasses! In the castle, dozens of luxury cars, sports cars, and even a mini-helicopter were parked! About a hundred male and female servants were responsible for the upkeep of the castle. At this time, in the huge hall of the castle, there was a silhouette of a tall and graceful woman wearing a long trench coat. From her back, it could be seen that she had an S-shaped figure. She was simply perfect and flawless! Her arms were crossed over her chest at this time. With her back facing the group of elite bodyguards, she tapped the phone repeatedly with her delicate hand. “Clean everything up. Don’t leave any clues behind.” The figure said in a cold and aloof manner before turning around and leaving on her high heels. A man in the hall bowed in response before taking his phone out. He dialed a number and said coldly, “Clean ev
“Philip's strength mostly comes from his very powerful pet rabbit. Although it's a monster beast, it's a force to be reckoned with. It isn't something anyone can deal with,” Hogster said with lingering fear. He could not forget how Rabbit had beaten Alain to a pulp. “Yes, the rabbit is a force to be reckoned with. You'd better not mess with it for no reason. I really wonder where such a powerful monster beast came from.” Alain seemed very steadfast, but he was already having a mental meltdown. However, he did not want to embarrass himself in public, so he gritted his teeth and hung on. The hooded man looked at Alain and sneered inwardly. He took out a pill from his pocket and handed it to him. “Take this or I’m afraid you’ll collapse soon.” He could notice Alain’s condition at a glance and knew he would not last long. “Forget it. I won’t hide it from you. In fact, the rabbit inflicted all these injuries on me. I wouldn’t be in this miserable state if the rabbit weren’t that
Although the strength of the test subject had increased, he was not highly valued at all because his talent was not affected and did not meet the guild’s requirements. “Okay, you may leave now. Your strength has improved, so make sure to practice hard and don’t let us down,” Alain said grandly, sending the other party away. He knew that this person was nothing but a loser. The guild member who was the test subject had no idea how pathetic he was. Instead, he looked at Alain with excitement and gratitude. Hogster swallowed the potion without hesitation. He quickly felt the changes in his body as if he had become very powerful in just a few seconds. Hogster looked at the hooded man in surprise. He never thought that he could become so strong. “Wow, this is amazing!” Hogster was shocked by this unexpected outcome. His lack of self-esteem was quickly replaced with brimming confidence, and he even had the urge to mess with Philip. In his opinion, Philip was nothing special. Now
“Don’t worry, I mean no harm. That thing is quite good.” The silly member took the potion nervously and looked at Alain expectantly. “Sir, I think I’m getting stronger!” The silly guy showed off his strength excitedly. Alain stepped forward and examined the guild member curiously. Sure enough, his strength had increased. Alain found the increase in strength quite incredible. Moreover, he did not find any side effects on the other party, which was the most surprising. This potion was amazing beyond anyone’s imagination! Alain was very excited and wished he could take it too. “I believe you should know the value of this potion. Just win the competition and stop worrying about the rest.” Alain and the hooded man stepped aside to discuss offering the boys and girls. Hogster was taken aback to hear them. The two quickly reached an agreement as they knew how unethical this transaction was. “Father, you actually agreed to his request! Aren't you afraid that it’ll be expose
By taking the potion, a person could increase their overall strength, and there would be no side effects. It was a miracle potion, indeed. Alain was stunned to hear that. He felt that the hooded man was bragging. How could there be such an amazing potion? “Are you serious? It can’t be that simple.” Alain took the potion from the other party and sized it up, wondering if he should trust this thing. “If you don't believe it, you can give it a try. I don’t mind. You have many people under your command anyway. You can choose to use them as a test subject.” The hooded man was quite cold and aloof in both his actions and speech. Alain nervously clenched the potion tightly. “In that case, I’ll give it a try. Let me find someone.” Alain did not fully trust the hooded man’s words. In his opinion, it was better to play it safe. Who knew if anything would happen? He was nervous about giving something like this to his precious son. At this time, a guild member who was not highly valu
“I won’t be joining your guild, but I don’t mind being a spectator. At least I can watch the fun. I know that you’re quite strong, so you don’t need me. As long as nothing unexpected happens, I don’t think you’ll face a problem.” Philip smiled indifferently, quite confident that nothing much would happen. The overall strength of the Celestial Palace had improved significantly, so they really had nothing to worry about. Jamie was relieved to hear that. In that case, he could rest assured.… The guild competition officially kicked off, and everyone was ready to battle it out. The battles were not something that simply required strength to resolve. Occasionally, the competitors required tactics too. As Alain was feeling anxious, his reinforcement finally arrived at the scene. The hooded man turned up with some potions, ready to carry out his task. “Hey, you’re finally here. I thought I wouldn’t see you again.” Alain was worried. He knew that he was in a precarious situati
“Father, what happened to you? Don’t scare me!” Hogster sat by Alain’s bedside and asked in a panic. Hogster would not have been worried about Alain in the past, but things were different now. They were facing various crises. Without his father to take care of things, they would be doomed. Alain coughed violently and fumbled around for some healing pills before stuffing them into his mouth. The pills were not useful for his injuries but could at least relieve his pain. After Alain took the pills, Hogster hugged him excitedly. “This is great! I thought you were about to drop dead.” Alain almost died in anger over his son’s remark. “Hogster, you have to take part in the competition on behalf of the guild. This is the best chance for you to become stronger. You’ll make a name for yourself if you do this.” Alain held Hogster's hand and placed all his hopes on him. Hearing that, Hogster said awkwardly, “Father, although I’m quite strong, you can’t do this to me! How am I suppose
The rabbit had a very expressive face as if it was watching Alain make a fool of himself. “You’re quite the smooth talker. If you have more words of encouragement, let’s hear them.” Hay dangled from Rabbit's mouth, and he seemed disdainful. Alain seemed conflicted at the sight of Rabbit and felt like he was looking at Philip instead. “Why are you here?” This rabbit was weird, and no one could control it. As far as Alain knew, the rabbit was famous in major cities and good at picking fights. “Of course, I’m here to teach you a lesson. Do you think I traveled this far to buy you a meal?” After saying this, Rabbit jumped up and kicked Alain, who started spitting mouthfuls of blood. Alain was strong in his own right, so there was no way he would be helpless against an attack. However, he simply could not resist Rabbit and could only suffer a beating. The guild members in the surroundings closed their eyes, feeling sorry for their guild leader. No one thought they could win th
It seemed that Alain had overestimated his importance. “Hey, wait a minute. Don't be so hasty. I just want to think about how to make things better. You should know that things are not as simple as you think. If I agree so easily, others might target me.” The hooded man sneered inwardly at Alain’s flattering appearance. He knew that Alain was probably trying to bargain with him. “I thought you wouldn’t consider it, but you seem quite willing to work with us.” The hooded man smiled calmly as if mocking Alain from the bottom of his heart. Although Alain was being ridiculed, he could not say a word. The hooded man held the reins, so Alain had no choice but to obey. “I don’t mind this cooperation, but we need to plan this thoroughly. If you can help my guild to make a comeback in this competition, I can agree to your condition. Since you found me, you should know the trouble my guild is facing right now. Philip and his people are messing with us, and the Celestial Palace is keepi
Alain was a smart man and quickly grasped the key point. It seemed that this man was here to help him. “Tell me what you want. Stop wasting my time. If you’re here to help me, let’s have an open discussion.” Alain was no longer nervous and stared at the other party calmly. Hearing that, the hooded man smiled smugly. “I know that your guild is facing a crisis. I can help you with that. I can get rid of all your problems and also ensure that your guild scores victory. Although I can't guarantee that you’ll win the championship, taking one of the top spots won’t be a problem.” The hooded man spoke calmly as if he was confident that Alain would agree. Sure enough, Alain was expectant to hear this man’s offer to help him. At a moment of crisis, it was every man for himself. Right now, no one was willing to help him or lend a helping hand. Alain thought that this was too much of a coincidence. “There’s no such thing as a free lunch. What do you want in return?” Alain knew that
