“Do you think it's cruel to trade with merfolk’s hearts?” the princess asked. Philip just nodded without speaking. The princess suddenly ripped apart the covering on her chest. A shocking wound was displayed on her chest. “In fact, merpeople have two hearts.” Seeing the princess’s actions, Philip felt a little embarrassed because she was a mermaid, after all. Showing her wound openly in front of him just like that made Philip a little embarrassed. However, she seemed unconcerned. Seeing Philip's expression, she simply said, “We merfolk don’t have as much etiquette as humans, so you don’t have to feel embarrassed. “Showing you my wound is to tell you that most merpeople have lost a heart just to protect our last piece of homeland.” Protect their last piece of homeland? Did that mean that all the merpeople used to have two hearts, but they had to give up one of them for some special reason? “Why did all of you lose a heart?” The princess replied, “The humans discove
There was shock, surprise, anticipation, and hope. Various emotions added to the princess’ expression. “You can actually read the contents of the stone book without using the power of the blood. “According to the historical records of the merfolk kingdom, only the descendant of the mighty being who left behind this stone book and the royal bloodline of the merfolk kingdom can read the content.” Hearing that, Philip immediately frowned. Was that mighty being his mother? Had she ever set foot in this merfolk kingdom? He really had no way or no idea at all how to help the merfolk kingdom make a comeback! Seeing Philip's attitude, the princess immediately prostrated on the floor. “I’m begging you. After so many years of being invaded by other sea creatures, we’ve lost all means to fight. If not for the professor’s ingenuity and wisdom to pull us through the difficult times, we might have lost even the last ray of hope.” Philip wanted to refuse, but at this moment, all the
Philip followed the professor to his laboratory and finally found a moment of peace. The professor deliberately drained all the water in the laboratory so that Philip could feel more comfortable too. Philip smiled and silently accepted the professor’s kindness. He started to study the picture on the iron plate left by the professor. The content of the picture was very clear. Philip could tell at a glance where the underground ruins were, the extension of the ruins, and the mileposts. It was also clearly written on the iron plate the creatures guarding each milepost. This showed that the merfolk kingdom had once tried to invade this place but the result was not ideal. No matter what, Philip wanted to take a look for himself. When Philip was about to go out, he found the princess outside the laboratory door. “I was afraid you were busy, so I didn't want to disturb you. Here are some things from our merfolk kingdom for you to have a taste.” The princess respectfully ha
Philip had just reached the entrance of the cave when the water vibration caught their attention. “How many times have we told you that we don't need the hearts of merpeople now?” Hearing this voice, a trace of doubt flashed across Philip's face. According to the princess, the merpeople’s hearts were taken away by humans. However, it seemed that these water snakes had gotten the hearts of merpeople before. Philip did not leave but stood at the mouth of the cave. A huge dark green snake came out of the cave. “A human? You shouldn’t be here.” Although the dark green snake did not take on a human form, it could speak. “Are you saying that humans have been here before?” Philip asked the big dark green snake. Philip’s whole body was shrouded in energy, so his voice could be accurately transmitted. Sound was produced through vibration, but the medium of sound transmission was now water. The big dark green snake stared at Philip with big scarlet eyes and said, “So what?
Philip did not even wait for the flames to melt the ice. He shook his body and the ice simply shattered in an instant. The splintering ice cubes hit the reefs around, instantly crushing them to bits. At this time, several dark green snakes suddenly felt a burst of warmth. Before they even had time to react, Philip's transformed chimera claws grabbed all of their tails. Like swinging a lasso, he spun them around in the water. Following Philip's movements, whirlpools started to form in the water. However, it was done just with Philip’s brute force. He was in no hurry to get rid of the snakes. From their words, Philip knew that both the professor and the princess seemed to be keeping some secrets from him. He wanted to find out these secrets from these dark green big snakes. As they shrank into small black snakes coiled around Philip's arms, Philip smiled at them and said, “So? Will you behave now?” One of the little snakes raised its head and said to Philip, “We’re th
Philip immediately stood on guard. He did not want things to blow up in his face unexpectedly. To Philip’s surprise, although there was a lot of movement, nothing unusual happened. However, after the noises stopped and Philip relaxed, a hand suddenly grabbed his leg. An icy chill promptly spread all over Philip’s leg. In a split second, Philip’s leg was all covered in ice. The little black snakes that were coiled quietly around his hand raised their heads and bit Philip. If Philip’s skin had not been toughened up through the practice before, he might have fallen under these little black snakes. When he realized that these little black snakes were about to attack him, Philip exerted force in his hand and smashed the little snakes to the ground without hesitation. A burst of blazing white flames flashed over their bodies. Before the little black snakes could turn into those giant dark green snakes again, they were reduced to ashes mixed with the muddy water on the groun
Just when the man in black and the few snakes that had turned into children were stunned, sharp spikes made from earth protruded from the ground, which spread through the entire cave. Seeing this scene, the man in a black robe was shocked. The whole cave seemed to be under Philip's control at this moment. Rumbles sounded in the cave. The black-robed man turned pale with shock. At this moment, Philip suddenly appeared behind him. “Do you still want them to eat me now?” Philip had used the rules of space. Although he was not proficient in using the rules of space, he had no problem dealing with these big snakes. The blade of the Caelum Sword cut a boy in half, and blood spilled all over the floor. The little dark green snakes that had transformed into children were quite strong, but they had little combat experience. Thus, they were no match for Philip at all. Besides, they had always faced other underwater creatures, and this was the first time they encountered a h
Philip chuckled as he prodded the hilt of the Caelum Sword against the water elemental barrier. The menacing dragon head unleashed water elements too. The man in black's expression changed upon seeing this, but he could not get away in time even if he wanted to. At this time, the water elemental barrier became a battlefield between the black-robed man and Philip and also a battle of water elements. Philip and the man in black fought with water elements. Once the water element was controlled by Philip, the man in black would also be trapped in the water element barrier, which would then turn into a water prison for him, trapping him. “You actually have such a powerful water element that exceeds level 5S.” The man in black was originally a water snake, so he was extremely sensitive to the water element. His water element was a level 5S. Now that he was in an actual fight with Philip, he realized that Philip's water element had reached level 6S. “Of course, if I didn’t
