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
Four held a sharp short dagger, lunged forward, and stabbed the person in the back! The tall man standing there shook his head and said, “You’re not good enough!” With that said, he turned sideways slightly. At the same time, he reached out with his right hand and grabbed the incoming dagger! Clang! Fennel exerted some force and broke the dagger! Seeing this, Four trembled and quickly backed away, trying to escape! With this simple encounter, he already knew that he was not a match for the man in front of him! The mission this time meant sure death! However, Fennel would never let him go so easily. In a flash, he appeared right in front of the killer. With a wicked sneer, he raised his foot and kicked Four in the stomach. Bam! Four got kicked right in the stomach and flew out like a cannonball. He hit the glass coffee table in the living room heavily, smashed the glass, and fell into the glass fragments. They pierced right into his back! At the same time, he felt
Bam! Philip raised his foot in a sideway kick and sent killer Five flying! Then, he stomped and jumped out. Before Five hit the ground, Philip slammed his knee into his chest! Crack! This attack broke five or six of Five’s ribs! After Five landed on the ground, Philip followed closely behind. When Five painfully raised his arms to stab Philip, Philip broke his arms! Crack! “Argh!” A heart-wrenching scream. With one confrontation, Five was easily taken down by Philip. Philip looked indifferently at Five who was slumped on the ground and said coldly, “Did the Lovelace family just send assassins of your caliber? That really surprises me. You’re too weak.” With a face full of misery, Five sneered and said, “Do you think we’re the main force? You’re wrong. We’re just here to scout the way. The really powerful guys haven’t made a move yet.” Hearing this, Philip frowned and said, “Who are they?” Ptooey! Five spat and said, “You’ll never find out. I'll tell you when
Realm Sealing Magic Circle? Philip frowned. He did not know much about such magic circles, so he asked, “What is it?” Fennel said solemnly, “The Realm Sealing Magic Circle is a very powerful formation that can suppress the strength of those trapped in the formation to the realm of the king of disciples. It’s a large-scale magic circle especially aimed at those whose realms are kings of disciples of the seventh zone and above! The composition of this formation is subtle and obscure. It’s not something that ordinary people can comprehend. Moreover, this spell formation was handed down since the time of the first emperor. It was rumored that this magic circle was specially developed by the first emperor to unify the six kingdoms. However, this magic circle was lost a long time ago. There’s no record in the history books, so few people know about it. I only found some clues through some books.” After listening to Fennel, Philip’s face was extremely dark. He immediately wanted to rush
Errol was startled as he raised his fist and threw several punches at the approaching figure! Bang, bang! The void cracked under the punches! However, Roger easily dodged these punches. Bam! When Errol was about to throw another punch, Roger was already half a meter away from him. Roger threw a punch that landed squarely on Errol’s hastily raised fist! Boom! Errol flew back along with the bull-headed silhouette and crashed into a nearby wall as well as the approaching battle tank! A huge pit several meters wide was left on the ground! Errol roared in anger and jumped up from the ground. His eyes flashed with a strange red light as he stared at the figure who had his hands behind his back and was walking calmly. He raised his hands, formed several longswords from compressed air, and roared. “You made the wrong choice! Go to hell!” With a roar, Errol jumped into the air. A huge fist fell like a meteor from the sky! Roger’s gray hair fluttered and his eyes were col
For a moment, Roger’s and Errol’s gaze fell on Philip who stood in the distance outside the Realm Sealing Magic Circle. Roger smiled and said, “I believe in my son.” Errol chuckled and said, “Teacher, have you ever thought that you have made the wrong decision back then?” Roger said lightly, “Errol, you still don’t understand that the great power of this world is beyond the control of human beings. The Lovelace family's grand plans and dominance are at the cost of human lives and the development of all mankind. Do you really want to follow such a family?” Errol pondered over his words. However, soon, he smiled sorrowfully and said, “Teacher, no matter what you say, I’ve made my choice. I came here today just to see how you’re doing. I know now, so I hope that when I see you again next time, I can kill you with my own hands.” After saying that, the black mist around Errol began to surge and gradually engulfed his body. Roger frowned as he looked at Errol who was about to e
“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
