With Roger’s consent, Georgina spread the news about Roger’s injury to the Lovelace family’s servant. Sure enough, the Lovelace family was very concerned about this news and immediately dispatched many computer experts to track the source of this news as well as Georgina's IP address. “They've taken the bait!” Georgina shouted excitedly. Philip and Fennel stood by Georgina's side, closely watching this war of information technology without gunpowder. “How long will it take to determine their location?” Philip asked. Georgina thought for a moment and replied, “At the current speed, half an hour will do. Likewise, if we can't hang on for half an hour on our side, our position will be exposed.” The look on Georgina's face became obviously grave. Although it was not the first time she had done this, the previous servers were rubbish. She could do it in five minutes. Even for the most powerful server in the Octagon, Georgina only spent 25 minutes getting in. This time, it
The hot and sexy goddess Athena walked out of her swimming pool in her bikini, which revealed her perfect body. She shook off the water droplets in her hair, took the lace robe handed by the maid, and draped it over her graceful body. Then, she lay on the beach chair and took a sip of whisky. A guard walked over at this moment, bowed, and said, “Lord Athena, something has happened to the Hall of the Sun.” Hearing this, Athena sat up abruptly, turned her head to look at the female guard, and asked, “Apollo?” “Yes, Lord Athena. According to the information we received, the Hall of the Sun has entered a state of defense. All their bases are closed to prepare for battle. I think they must be in big trouble,” the guard replied. Athena got up, exposing her pair of straight long legs that countless women envied and a proud figure. She walked out of the open-air swimming pool and said coldly, “Prepare my battle suit. I’m going to the Hall of the Sun!” Soon, Athena put on her platin
Hearing this, Fennel was obviously exasperated and said, “Ares, do we have to fight today?” Ares said coldly, “Yes, today. I have to go to Northfrost and may be away for a few months. Before that, I must fight with you.” Fennel’s face darkened as he asked, “Northfrost? Is he coming out?” After saying this, Athena and Hephaestus both looked at Ares with a flash of worry in the corners of their eyes. They asked, “Ares, is your father coming back?” Ares nodded with gloom in his eyes and said, “His punishment is almost over and he’ll return. This time, I’m going to Northfrost to pick my father up. When the time comes, the fallen Hall of the Dragon King will make a comeback, which will pose a huge threat to the 12 Sacred Halls of the West and the sacred city. However, he’s my father, after all. I’ll choose to follow him.” There was silence. Time was at a standstill in the hall for a moment. Ares' father was the dragon king who once ruled the Western underworld for 20 years—the
Fennel wiped the blood from the corner of his mouth and looked at Ares, who was also gasping for breath and injured. He said with a smile, “As expected of War God Ares. Such combat power is very strong.” Ares looked at Fennel coldly, took a deep breath, and said, “Apollo, you’re stronger than I thought. You’re the second person I admire in my life. The first is my father, and you’re the second.” Fennel raised his eyebrows and said with a smile, “Then I should be very proud.” Ares laughed, his soaring fighting intent exploding once more. The next second, he yelled, “Again!” Boom! In an instant, the two fought again. A shocking energy pressure and the power of rules erupted! The training ground was reduced to rubble! Athena stood in the distance and used her field of kingship to shield the energy dispersed by the two’s battle. At the same time, she shouted, “That's enough! Ares, stop it! Apollo, stop fighting!” However, once two men were in battle mode, they could not sto
Mystic City in the Northwest? Philip trembled when he heard this name. He looked at Fennel in bafflement and asked, “What is this place? In today’s information technology age, are there still places that are not displayed on maps or known to the world?” Fennel shook his head, his face getting more serious by the minute. He said, “You misunderstood. It’s not that this place is not known to the world, but that the people who know this place are not ordinary people of the secular world. The reason it’s not shown on the map or marked out is due to human doings. To a certain extent, every country has places that they don’t want outsiders to know about. Take this place, for instance. It’s divided into many districts with many bases for secret research, which are confidential and not marked on the map.” Philip nodded and more or less understood Fennel’s meaning. He continued to ask, “Then what exactly is this Mystic City of the Northwest?” Fennel sighed and said, “I don't really know
Fennel looked at Georgina, who had her head lowered. Her face was a little haggard. He said, “Georgina, it's not your fault. Don't worry. We’ll take care of the rest. You should rest.” After saying that, Fennel gently patted Georgina on her shoulder and ordered a subordinate to bring Georgina back to rest. At this time, Athena and Hephaestus walked over from the side where they had been watching. With doubts and worries on their faces, they asked, “Who has locked your position?” Fennel looked at Athena without any intention to hide it and said, “The Lovelace family.” “The Lovelace family?” Hearing this name, Athena was taken aback. She frowned and said, “How did you mess with them?” Philip said, “It’s because of me.” Athena still wanted to ask when Fennel said, “Stop asking. It’s better if you don’t know some things. Now that the Lovelace family has locked our position, we need to keep an eye on their actions. I think they’ll launch an attack on the Hall of the Sun.” At
Five people slowly approached the private manor in the night. Guards of the Hall of the Sun constantly patrolled the surroundings, and several people of captain level guarded various entrances and exits. There were cameras with infrared probes everywhere and even temperature detectors in some places. The five people hid behind a bush nearby. The leader took out a small surveillance drone and launched it into the sky. This drone that was as small as a fly sneaked into the manor, flew around a few laps, photographed the entire manor's structure and security forces, and transmitted the data to the microcomputer on the leader’s arm. The leader synchronized the data to the microcomputer on the arms of the remaining four people before he looked at the electronic diagram and said, “Two and Three will enter from here. Four will enter from here, and Five will stay on the periphery. If an inevitable fight occurs, Five will fill in the position and attack amid the chaos. Understand?”
It was a puppet! Click! Instantly, the lights in the room lit up! Two and Three were startled. They turned their heads and saw a tall woman with fiery red wavy hair standing at the door. It was Georgina with a pistol in her hand! Bang, bang! Sounds of gunshots! Two and Three reacted almost instantly. The other party was prepared. They were trapped! At the same time, they dodged the bullets and ran to the window, trying to break the glass and escape! However! Bang, bang! The glass of the window shattered, and a team of heavily armed guards descended from the sky! In a flash, Two and Three were surrounded! They scowled and charged right out! Bang, bang! The room fell into chaos! Two heavily armed guards were sent flying by the other party with kicks and punches. Seeing that these two were about to break out of the siege, Georgina kicked out at the back of one of the assassins’ heads! Bam! The kick landed squarely, and Two staggered back. Just as he r
“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
