Midge was extremely flustered. He pointed at Philip tremblingly and shouted, “D-Don’t be so cocky. Do you think you’re great just because you have some moves? Let me tell you that I have a big brother behind me. If you dare to do anything to me, he won’t let you off!” Midge panicked as he looked at his buddies on the floor for fear that Philip would break his arms and legs too. Philip looked at Midge indifferently and asked coldly, “I have two questions. First, what are you doing here?” Midge thought about it and said, “T-To collect debts.” Philip frowned, looked at Martha and Charles who stood dumbfounded on the side, and asked, “What debts?” Midge immediately replied, “Your mother-in-law owes us a gambling debt of 500 million dollars. This villa and some shares of the Beacon Group belong to us now. We’re here to collect the debts today. While saying that, Midge took out an IOU from his pocket with Martha’s signature and fingerprint on it. “Look for yourself. Your mother
A few minutes later, Midge sat opposite Philip with a deck of playing cards on the table. Philip said, “Let’s go with the easiest. The one with the most points wins. You go first.” Midge was startled, and his forehead dripped with sweat. He hesitated for a long time before he drew a card from the deck. He flipped it over and saw a K. “Hahaha! I got a K!” Midge laughed. He was so lucky. On one side, Martha sweated profusely from anxiety. She thought that they would lose another 500 million for sure. However, Philip smiled indifferently and said, “As long as it's not the biggest card, I still have a chance.” Midge sneered and said, “Hehe, you can only win if you draw an Ace. Unfortunately, with so many cards remaining, your chances are very low.” As he said that, Philip casually drew a card from the deck and flipped it over. A! “I'm sorry, but my luck has always been good. I won, so take your men and get lost,” Philip said calmly. Midge was dumbfounded. He pointed a
The man smiled and said, “Interesting. You’re the first person to talk to me in that way.” Next to him, Midge pointed at Philip and roared. “Dude, you’re too arrogant. I’m afraid you don’t know the fame of Reaper Notting, the Grim Reaper of Northwood!” The Grim Reaper of Northwood? Reaper Notting? Philip frowned and shrugged as he said, “I’m sorry, but I really don’t know him. You may leave now.” With that said, Philip was about to go upstairs with Mila in his arms. Reaper Notting scowled and glared at Philip with icy eyes through his sunglasses. He shouted, “Kid, you’re too arrogant!” Bang! Suddenly, Reaper attacked. A domineering punch with mighty force slammed into Philip’s back! Under normal circumstances, as long as Reaper made a move, his opponent would surely die! Thus, all the men behind Reaper snickered. Hehe, that kid was dead for sure. How dare he provoke Reaper into taking action? However, a shocking scene happened. In Philip’s arms, Mila raised he
Philip looked indifferently at Reaper, who had fallen to the ground and vomited blood. He said, “A disciple from the fifth zone dares to wreak havoc in the secular world. Is this how you do things in Northwood?” A thunderous roar shocked everyone! Reaper quickly got up, knelt in front of Philip like a child who did something wrong, and said, “I didn’t know that I’d offend you. Please forgive me!” Reaper lowered his head and trembled all over! His men were dumbfounded when they saw Reaper kneeling and apologizing! He was Reaper Notting, the Grim Reaper of Northwood! At this moment, he was kneeling on the ground so humbly. In an instant, they understood and knelt, apologizing for their mistake. Philip snorted and said, “I’ll remember what happened today. I’ll personally make a trip to Northwood later and see for myself what Northwood looks like!” Hearing that, Reaper trembled. Just now, he felt the power of the seventh zone from Philip! This was simply unbelievable!
After Philip read this letter that Wynn had left behind at some point, the chills in his eyes became more solemn. The Lovelace family of Cochly Mountain was just a conspiracy? It was to lure Philip to enter Cochly Mountain and help the Lovelace family to open the stargate? The Lovelace family had planned such a grand scheme! Once the stargate was opened, the consequences would be unimaginable! Crack! Suddenly, Philip heard a sound from the window. He quickly looked back and saw a thin figure running away from the window. Philip gave chase immediately. He saw no one, but at the window, he saw an overturned flower pot and a pair of small footprints in the soil. The footprints were strange, unlike a human. Philip immediately unleashed his rules of insight that covered dozens of miles. All the streets and alleys, pedestrians, cars, and such in the vicinity appeared in Philip’s rules of insight. He vaguely felt a dark purple aura. In an instant, Philip discovered som
Philip frowned and said, “I don’t like killing. If you attack again, I won’t show any mercy!” The creature seemed to understand his words, but due to its nature, it rushed toward Philip again! Philip shook his head helplessly, reached out with his hand that had turned into a chimera arm, and grabbed the little creature in the air. The little creature struggled violently in Philip’s hand, flapping its wings constantly. As Philip was about to interrogate the creature, a young girl with two ponytails and twinkling big eyes came running over! She was wearing a pleated skirt and had a black collar around her neck. The young girl looked about 17 or 18 years old, cute and energetic. She ran over with clenched fists, jumped into the air, and hugged the little creature dotingly. She rubbed the little creature with her face and said sweetly, “Blackie, I finally found you. I thought I lost you.” Thump! The girl fell to the ground but still hugged the creature tightly as if she was
Several old men gathered near the stargate. The stargate had been sealed, and this was a forbidden area. The surrounding was dark, the ground was cracked, and the sky was gray. Lightning and thunder intertwined in the low sky as red and black mist floated in the air. Eight huge stone pillars towered into the sky, each with a width of a dozen people. Obscure characters and patterns were carved on the stone pillars. Several huge locks connected each pillar, and the dull clatter of iron chains could occasionally be heard in the wind. An area full of restrictions was found at the end of these stone pillars with an ancient altar inside. The altar was full of spells and enchantments to suppress it. The old men stood in the outer area of the stone pillars and looked solemnly at the altar from a distance. They were none other than the five half-steps to the other shore who appeared in Larson Manor back then! The five marquises! “Quickly send someone to contact Cochly Mounta
When the man appeared, these people stood up in salute and greeted him, “Commander Greene.” Commander Greene walked up to the main seat, waved his hand, and said, “We have no time for pleasantries. According to the news from the five marquises, the guardian maiden has run away from the stargate. This is urgent. You must deploy more manpower to search the entire Cochly Mountain to find the guardian maiden as soon as possible. Also, we need to contact the Nonagon and ask them to conduct a search in the secular world. At the same time, tell the Supernatural Bureau to do the same. Meeting adjourned!” Clatter! Everyone stood up with serious faces, saluted, and said, “Yes, sir!” After these people left the meeting room, a young man in combat uniform rushed in with a document and said, “Commander Greene, this is the latest monitoring data from the stargate. After the guardian maiden left, the stargate burst with terrifying energy fluctuations several times. Something behind the starga
Ronan and Philip moved forward and finally arrived at the human town. Philip looked around curiously and found that it was a large city. Humans had done quite well in developing a city. “If you’re not happy with this place, you can consider going to the city in the west. You can find many human territories nearby. I don’t know why humans are unwilling to live together but prefer to build cities everywhere!” Ronan was not human, so he could not understand it. “Although my mother is a human, I’m not. I only remember living in that hut since I was born. No other race is willing to accept me, including humans.” Ronan was embarrassed because he had scales on his body that were clearly visible at sea but not so much on land. Humans were unwilling to classify Ronan as a human because of that. Philip nodded, surprised to hear his pitiful plight. Not only did he not have his own race, but his mother’s race was unwilling to acknowledge him too. “That’s awful. Why don't you join u
“This is it, crystal! This little stone can get me a big bottle of wine! Since I’m lucky enough to meet you today, I’ll give it to you!” Ronan clearly had no concept of money. Philip took the stone from Ronan’s hand and found that it was no different from an energy stone. He tried to return the stone to Ronan, who rejected it. “I don't have much concept of money, but I know that money is indispensable if you want to go to the place where humans live. Just take it. I'm afraid that you’ll be detained if you don't have money. I was detained once before!” Philip was touched by Ronan’s words. He took out a bottle of wine from the space ring and handed it to Ronan. Although the wine was nothing to Philip, it was a rare treasure to Ronan, who had never tasted good wine. “What’s this?” Ronan curiously took the bottle of wine that Philip handed to him. He put it to his nose, sniffed it carefully, and was soon bursting with excitement. “This is good stuff! Do you want to sell it to m
“You’re not from a big family? In that case, how did you become so strong at such a young age?” Ronan looked at Rabbit in surprise too. “I thought you were from a big family, one of the best! After all, only such families have the power to capture summoned beasts for their descendants!” Obviously, Ronan had misunderstood Rabbit’s identity. Rabbit blinked blankly, wondering what Ronan was talking about. “Summoned beast? I'm not a summoned beast; I'm just an ordinary rabbit!” Seeing Ronan’s confusion, Rabbit smugly introduced himself. Although he had no idea what a summoned beast meant, it did not sound imposing, so Rabbit did not like it at all. Ronan was startled to hear that Rabbit was not a summoned beast but a creature with intelligence. He felt very powerful. “Indeed, he’s not a summoned beast but my pet. You can think of him as my partner. I’m more curious about this place.” Philip was puzzled, wondering what was going on in this world. He had not seen any towns so f
“This is the survival of the fittest! We were much stronger than them, so they were at our mercy, just like how we’re at your mercy now!” Someone stepped forward, his voice trembling as if he wanted to rebuke Philip. Seeing his timid appearance but bold attempt, Philip sneered, “In that case, I’m stronger than you, so there’s nothing wrong with killing you. You should pray that I won’t kill you in the cruelest way possible.” Philip raised his sword and killed the fish creature who voiced up. Any sign of weakness and these people would think they had a chance to survive. Ronan applauded Philip’s decisiveness and quickly joined the battle. Philip smiled at Ronan’s excitement. He simply wanted to vent. Over the years, he had been working so hard for his family and their future that he had almost lost sight of himself. He realized that maybe he should live for himself from now on. He wanted to become stronger and dominate the world. He knew that this was a real world. Although
At this time, a merman chased after the deep-sea fish creatures with a trident in hand. “Where do you think you’re going? Don't think I don't know that you took advantage of the chaos to massacre other villages. Since you can do such a thing, you must bear the consequences. I’m here to take your lives today!” The merman was clearly seeking justice, chasing the other party angrily. The deep-sea fish creatures escaped frantically without an explanation. “Damn that lunatic!” They did not expect that the merman was so fit, keeping up with them despite fleeing for so long. He did not seem tired at all. Meanwhile, Philip arrived and heard someone cursing. It looked like a merman. He was a force to be reckoned with. Philip could feel the huge pressure he exuded from a distance. He was definitely a powerful being who should not be trifled with. He was strong enough to drive this race to this state, which was enough to prove how extraordinary he was. The merman was startled
“They really stink. I think you should ask Aslan to do this next time. I believe he’ll enjoy this,” Rabbit said offhandedly as he led Philip in the trail of the scent. Philip smiled. He had recorded Rabbit’s statement with a projection stone. He could expect a good show once he showed it to Aslan. Rabbit had no idea that Philip had laid a trap for him. He was still hopping and leading the way. They soon arrived at a mysterious sea area that was remote and gloomy. “Did they live in such a dangerous and disgusting place?” Rabbit sighed. Sure enough, ugly creatures liked to live in dark places. Similar to the fish creatures, they used to live in a swamp too, maybe to hide their ugly appearance or something. Now that they looked better, they refused to return to the dark and damp environment again. Philip looked around without a word. He saw a stone sign on the side—deep-sea fish creatures. That should be the name of their name. The scale of them seemed quite big. “Ph
Aslan and the others had been teleported to different locations. Everyone was confused and wondered where they were. Some people appeared among some terrifying monsters and started fighting desperately as soon as they landed. Others landed in the desert where Philip was before. They looked about in puzzlement and wondered what was going on. As Philip’s followers, however, they were smart and quickly adapted to the situation. The sneaky little Rabbit was still by Philip’s side. Rabbit stayed in Philip's pocket and clung tightly to his belt the whole time. No powerful force could throw him away, so he managed to stay with Philip. “That was close. I felt a huge force just now and thought I’d be thrown out!” Rabbit felt that something was wrong when he entered. He quickly clung tightly to Philip so that they did not separate. However, that possibility still lingered in his mind, so he made preparations to deal with such a situation. Philip reached out and patted the sneaky Rabb
“Philip, I’m curious to find out what made you stay there for such a long time.” Aslan approached Philip curiously. According to his understanding of Philip, he must have encountered something good, which was why he did not leave at once. Philip smiled indifferently. “You’ll find out soon enough. It’s related to improving everyone's strength,” Philip said mysteriously. Rabbit hopped and looked at Philip anxiously. As an impatient rabbit, he could not bear seeing Philip whetting their appetites. He wanted to share the story immediately. “Since you’re so eager to tell them, go ahead and satisfy their doubts.” Philip smiled and shook his head at Rabbit’s anxiety. Rabbit was very excited to get Philip’s consent. He told everyone what they encountered there and described it so vividly that everyone felt as if they were there too. Philip realized that Rabbit was quite good at telling stories. “You have no idea how amazing that place is. It's full of ordinary creatures, but t
Philip was puzzled by everyone’s reaction. “Why aren't you leaving?” Everyone looked at each other. Some were embarrassed and stepped forward to please Philip. They took out their treasures and offered them to Philip. They were grateful to Philip for saving them and treating them with reason. Some ungrateful families sneaked out after the passage was opened without giving anything in return. Philip ignored them, but he took note of the people who tried to please him. They were smart and had a bright future. Philip was happy with them. As some people left, others followed suit. The merfolk lingered around Philip, unwilling to leave. After all, their chief was gone. No matter how powerful they were, they would never gain a foothold. Their race would be wiped out once they fell to a certain level, so everyone wanted to join Philip. At least Philip was a powerful person. It would be best if Philip was willing to help them. “Please take us in!” “The merfolk don't have many tre
