“That’s enough. He’s our invited guest after all, so don’t worry about such red tapes.” The captain of the Draco Corps attracted Philip's attention. He was around after all, so he would never allow someone to bully his team members in front of him. He simply chose a more tactful way to resolve it. Philip knew that this was their territory, so he could not carry things too far, only to remind them. The intimidation just now was enough. Panther was shocked. He had heard some things about the Draco Corps. They were the core guards in charge of the whole middle floor, maintaining safety here. Although a little lacking compared to some big families or big forces on the middle floor, their strength should not be underestimated. Especially their head captain, he could be considered invincible among the six-star powerhouses of the same level. Coupled with his strong attributes, Panther heard that he had even defeated a seven-star powerhouse before. “Head captain, let's ge
“Wait a minute!” the head captain exclaimed. “For a lower floor person like you to come to the middle floor, anyone here has the right to kill you on the spot.” Philip stood still and turned his head back abruptly. Sure enough, the head captain already knew about it, but after careful thought, since they were able to catch these people, and Mr. Cusack knew Philip's identity at that time, it was easy to find out about it during interrogation. “Then let’s stop wasting time and just tell me what you want,” Philip said lightly. Philip was ready to fight. The captain of the Draco Corps signaled with his eyes and his team members got ready to fight too. “Okay, since you’re so forthright, I won’t beat around the bush anymore. As long as you hand over the item belonging to Mr. Cusack, not only will I let you go, but I can also take you for the combat evaluation.” Philip frowned upon hearing that. He had no idea what Mr. Cusack had. After killing him, Philip passed out. Under
Philip was not to be outdone. Red flame elements erupted from his body, and the temperature was scorching hot. Even Panther dodged unconsciously beside Philip. Panther had heard of Philip’s domineering strength, including the fact that he killed Mr. Cusack, but he never witnessed it. Seeing this today made him flustered. Everyone in the Draco Corps surrounded Philip at this time. Although they were nowhere as strong as the head captain, they could still pose some obstacles to Philip. The head captain glowed with six rays of light, and combined with the pale golden light, he seemed like a god. “I'll give you another chance. Hand over the key and I'll spare your life!” However, Philip simply threw a punch without another glance at him. “Cut the crap and fight if you want.” Things had gone south by now, so fighting was inevitable. In that case, he should take the first strike. After all, time waited for no one. Besides, Philip was much stronger than the head captai
Philip stood there in good shape. Except for some ripped clothes on his arm, he was not injured at all. At this time, the head captain saw the golden mark of White Marsh on Philip's arm. He immediately turned pale with shock. Philip was unconcerned as he glanced at the head captain and said coldly, “I've already told you that I didn't see that thing you mentioned. If you insist on bothering me, I won’t show any mercy.” After saying this, Philip was about to leave, and Panther came out of hiding too. However, seeing Philip now, he looked a little timid. He dared not even speak loudly to Philip. Seeing the two of them leaving, the members of the Draco Corps crowded around the captain. “Head Captain, are you alright?” The head captain shook his head and stood up, his expression a little weird. He kept muttering to himself, “It can’t be. The members of the nine royal families should be on the upper floor. Besides, their territories have been clearly defined by the top.
Philip did not care about his fight with the head captain at all. After all, this was the middle floor, and he had not seen the real strength and powerhouses of this world yet. Philip and Panther quickly returned to their rest cabin. Philip believed that after a fight with the captain of the Draco Corps, no one would dare to mess with him again. Panther hesitated to speak. Philip ignored him. Panther had been this way ever since they returned. Panther always had this lukewarm attitude since Philip first met him, but at that time, Panther was under the impression that Cougar had sent Philip to the middle floor to learn from him. However, looking at it now, that was not the case at all because Philip was even stronger than Cougar. Thus the change in his attitude. Philip suddenly asked, “Do you know anything about the key in Mr. Cusack’s hand?” Philip wanted to take this opportunity to find out from Panther if Cougar had taken the key. However, Panther shook his head r
Thus, Philip made his request to Panther. Panther did not even have time to put on his armor and left it in the rest cabin instead. “I'm a little hungry now. Can you let me eat first?” Panther complained on the way. He could not compare with Philip. Philip did not really need food to replenish his energy. After all, the elements absorbed during practice were sometimes far stronger than solid food. Of course, some special treasures were another matter, but Panther could not do that. Philip said lightly, “When my combat evaluation is over, we’ll eat our fill!” Philip did not want to rely on anyone else anymore. After all, not everyone was sincere about helping him. It was just like Cougar back then. Although Philip should not have doubted him, what the head captain of the Draco Corps said still rang in his ears. Who got hold of Mr. Cusack’s key? If not for this incident, Cougar would still be a good person in Philip’s mind. However, Philip had passed out at that time,
This kick did not land on Philip's body, and Philip would never allow that to happen either. With a frown, Philip looked back at the other party before ignoring him. If he chose to deal with such people, he would be too busy to deal with other things. Nonetheless, Philip still got out of the way to avoid any trouble. Seeing this scene, the man immediately snorted coldly at Philip and said, “Ignorant mongrel, hurry up and get out of the way. If you delay our young master's combat evaluation, you’ll pay for it.” Ignoring his yelling, Philip walked to the front as everyone had moved out of the way. The people of the middle floor would give way to this so-called young master but not Philip. Seeing his action, everyone was taken aback. They did not expect Philip to be so bold. This was clearly playing with fire. The young master immediately ordered the people around him, “Pull him back. A lowly citizen like him isn’t worthy of standing in my way.” His tone was pretty hosti
After the test was over, they would be matched to a battle zone of corresponding strength to carry out the combat level evaluation. This young master was clear about the rules here but not Philip. He wandered around like a headless chicken but still found a place that looked like the test tower in the end. Philip knew that this basic test had to be carried out first no matter where. Hence, he headed here directly. Before him, many people were going through the test. At a glance, he noticed the contrast between the middle floor and the lower floor. The population on the lower floor was the densest, but there were few strong people with elemental talents. However, the middle floor was different. Most of the young people had the strength of about four stars, while a few outstanding ones could even reach five stars. That was the biggest difference. On the lower floor, people with five stars could already form a stronghold. Nonetheless, few people had elemental talent.
Anyone with any ideas could only shake their heads helplessly after hearing Philip’s remarks. At the same time, they were amazed by the ring’s function. “Wow, that’s great. The person who made this thing must be a genius!” Cameron clapped his hands excitedly. Of course, he was worried that someone would steal his treasure. After all, owning a treasure was a sin in itself. It was inevitable for others to covet his treasure. It would be bad if they attacked him because of greed. With Philip’s explanation, his trouble would be reduced. “That sounds amazing.” The patriarch of the Lamy family seemed dissatisfied. He had some crooked thoughts too. With their family’s financial resources, they could not buy so many rings, so he planned to steal the other two as well. He was not that stupid to steal from Philip, so he could only set his sights on the other major families. Everyone wanted the rings anyway. As long as he refused to admit it, no one would know that he was guilty.
It was too much to use half of the family's assets and properties in exchange for one storage space. “Are you sure about this? Do you know how much that would cost?” “The Lamy family must be crazy to go all out for this treasure!” Everyone complained helplessly. They might be in trouble if the Lamy family insisted on doing it this way. “I know you guys can’t afford it, so stop wasting your time. The Lamy family has made an offer. If you can up the price, go ahead. Don’t stop us from buying that treasure!” the patriarch of the Lamy family said smugly. He felt that his offer was high enough and no one could afford it, so this thing would definitely belong to him. Even Ronan was surprised by this development. He had heard of the Lamy family before. Ronan had worked for the Lamy family before, but their attitude toward him was the same as that of other families—indifferent and disdainful. Therefore, Ronan had the same bad impression about everyone. The Lamy family was not
Rather than saying that they were unwilling to believe it, it was more likely that they did not dare to believe it. Ronan calmly put the ring aside. “I'm wearing a ring that looks better than the ones you're about to get. Watch this.” After saying that, Ronan demonstrated to everyone what a real storage space could do. Anything he took in his hand vanished and appeared at will, which looked simply amazing. Everyone was jealous at this scene. They stared at Ronan’s hands nervously, trying to see if he was performing a magic trick or showing off the storage ring. After Ronan's many demonstrations, they finally confirmed that Ronan was not lying. Everything was true. Everyone exclaimed in amazement. “Wow, I can’t believe that I really saw a storage space in action!” “It’s amazing!” “I have to get hold of one!” Although Sadie had been dealt a heavy blow, she hid in a corner and observed the situation instead of leaving. She wanted to see how things would develop. When S
“Heh, look at those crazy family patriarchs. They can't wait to suck up to Ronan! Do you think they’ll question the Claude family after hearing about the storage space? They’ll only turn up in person to find out about it! “With so many of them putting pressure on us, what do you think we can do? Now, we may not even get that amazing storage space because there are too many people competing with us!” Cameron was furious and almost passed out in anger because of this stupid woman. Sadie scowled at the yard in disbelief as she realized that the crowd causing the commotion was the patriarchs of the other major families. She thought that they were servants sent by the families, but everything was different from what she imagined. “How did this happen? I planned everything perfectly. We just need to throw the wool over their eyes. Things shouldn't have turned out like this!” Sadie almost had a mental breakdown at this bad news. “No way. This is impossible…” Seeing the family
“Forget it. I won't talk to you anymore. I want to claim the credit for what I’ve done!” Sadie quickly turned and left. The butler wanted to stop her, but she vanished before he could say anything. In the end, he remained silent. “The plan really backfired on her. Unfortunately, she can only blame it on her bad luck.” The butler knew the situation the family was facing now. Their residence would probably be turned upside down. The Claude family could have owned a storage space, but everything was ruined now. Not only would they fail to get one, but others would also humiliate them! Sadie quickly arrived at the yard and rolled her eyes at the crowd. “Dad, over here!” Sadie beckoned her father excitedly as if she had great news for him. Cameron was very anxious at this point and wished he could find a solution. When Sadie called him, he thought his solution had appeared. He rushed over and looked at Sadie curiously. “What’s up? Is there any good news?” He was very excited
Everyone was excited to hear that Ronan had those legendary items. It was great. “Our family has to get one!” The patriarch of the Lamy family was the most excited. The members of this family had always been strong-headed and were determined to get it. The other families were unhappy to hear that. They were not that bad either, so they were annoyed by that high-handed remark. “All the major families are powerful in our own rights. I think there’s no need to conclude so quickly.” “I agree. I’m afraid you’ll hide and cry if you fail to get one. That'll be embarrassing.” “Even the major families are not confident about this. Who do you think you are to get it?” Everyone targeted the swell-headed Lamy family even though they were indeed big and powerful enough to steal the treasure from them. The Claude family was the most excited yet regretful. Instead of feeling happy that the families were bickering with each other, they were worried. Although the families were fighting
Besides, Philip mentioned that he would help Ronan make a name for himself. The storage rings that Philip provided were quite meager, with only 30 to 70 cubic feet of storage space each. However, that did not stop Ronan from admiring Philip. He knew that Philip had various treasures, but he was willing to share them with Ronan, which was too generous for words. To prevent Ronan from getting the short end of the stick, Philip also provided some common things for doing business. Due to this, Ronan wanted to serve Philip. In their world, the best way to express gratitude was to acknowledge the other party as their master. It was not only to seize the opportunity but also to find a good roof over their head. Thinking of this, Ronan did not dare to call Philip his brother anymore. Ronan decided to approach Philip at night and find a way to acknowledge him as his master so that he could serve Philip wholeheartedly. Philip had no idea about Ronan’s thoughts. He was still think
Everything Rabbit owned, including the storage space and various treasures, was given by Philip. So, Rabbit could come up with some amazing things for these people to please him. Rabbit felt very proud of this accomplishment. “Ahem, everyone, follow me! I know you’re eager to see Philip, but you have to follow the rules. Don't be as rude as the Claude family!” Rabbit said calmly. He was very unhappy with the Claude family. Hearing that, members of the Claude family were livid. They were shocked by Rabbit's words. He was deliberately putting them down! Those remarks were likely to affect their status among the major families. That off-handed tone might cause other major families to reject them. “I’m surprised that this family would be so arrogant and disrespect you!” “How could they treat that precious storage space so carelessly? I say, those people are too bold to disregard such a valuable treasure!” “This family is stupid and arrogant. Let's ignore them to avoid any ass
However, Cameron and his people were arrogant enough to lock Philip up. How dare they?! “Cameron, you went too far!” “I never knew that the Claude family were such people. I really misjudged you before. You’re really too much for treating such an amazing person that way.” Everyone pretended to be angry and kept speaking up for Philip, trying to please Rabbit and indirectly please Philip. Cameron was startled by Rabbit’s words, which easily landed him in trouble. “No, that's not exactly the case. I didn't lock Philip up but gave him a place to stay. How would I dare to lock up such a powerful person? You really think too highly of me.” However, Cameron’s explanation was useless. Everyone believed that Cameron locked Philip up on purpose, so they wanted to get him into trouble. Whether Cameron locked Philip up or treated Philip as a valuable guest, they wanted to ruin Cameron’s reputation. Once they got rid of Cameron, they could focus on pleasing Philip. “You must be
