The princess seemed to be a different person. She was firm and resolute and carried the bearing of someone superior. It was poles apart from her previous cowardice and indecisiveness. Seeing her change, Philip smiled. He knew that the princess had grown up. Suddenly, the underwater vibration increased. Something seemed to be approaching the merfolk kingdom. Philip noticed it and said, “There’s no time to lose. Anyone who wants to enter the ancient ruins can follow me.” The princess also felt the underwater vibration, and her expression changed. “That damn professor is retaliating so quickly.” Philip sneered and said, “Based on his character, he must have planned for something to attack us.” After saying this, Philip walked in the direction of the ancient ruins. None of the merfolk left, and everyone followed closely behind Philip. As for the princess, she deliberately took the last spot. Everyone knew that the last spot would be the most dangerous because if the
A beast tamer was actually a unique profession on this continent. They could control various exotic beasts and make them fight for them, and they could also use the power of the beasts. However, this skill was lost in this continent for a long time, and most of them lived in seclusion and no longer got involved in mundane affairs. Instead, they chose to live with the animals. Looking at the coffin in front of him, Philip knew that a beast tamer had died in the ancient ruins, and the merman just now must have touched the magic circle on top and got swallowed by the coffin. Philip was about to open the coffin to rescue the merman when he heard a strange noise in the coffin. It was as if something was trying to break out, and the patterns carved on the coffin seemed to come alive at this time. Philip frowned. This was the first time he had encountered such a situation. No one knew what the beast tamer had left in the coffin, so they could not take the risk no matter how mu
Since his energy was no longer being drained, Philip relaxed. It seemed that the flying snake had discovered something that could strengthen it, so it appeared. As those patterns disappeared, the wobbly coffin finally quieted down. Philip used his Caelum Sword to pry open the coffin lid but found nothing inside. Not to mention the merman who was swallowed just now, there was not even a sign of a skeleton. Zagu walked over. He looked at the coffin and said to Philip, “This coffin is very strange. Why don’t you let me break it apart?” Philip shook his head. “No way. Aren't you afraid of hurting your fellow merman? “Let’s chain it up and take the coffin with us.” After saying that, Philip left. Zagu fetched an iron chain and tied the coffin in exasperation. Although he was very touched when Philip said he wanted to save his fellow merman, pulling a coffin along for no apparent reason, apart from being inconvenient, would cause a great commotion. Philip wanted to keep t
As his rules of insight spread out, it was blocked when it reached the white marble floor. Instead of disappointment, Philip felt a surge of joy. Since the white marble had such an effect, it meant that the real hall was under the marble. Philip unleashed his earth element to its limit. With his actions, the real hall under the white marble revealed its true face. Finally, Philip saw the whole hall that seemed carved out of a whole block of white marble. Philip searched all over but could not find the entrance to this hall. At this moment, a voice came from behind him, “Trespassing on the ancient ruins, don't you know that this is our territory?” Philip turned around and realized that a group of people was standing behind him at some point. To be precise, they were much smaller than real humans, and the leader held a scepter in his hand. It was an old man with gray hair. Philip was startled. He never thought that such a strange human being still existed in the ancie
However, Philip was not about to fall for it. “Why can’t you accommodate the merfolk in the huge ancient ruins? Is there a secret here that you don’t want others to find out?” Philip asked. Hearing that, the old man looked at Philip coldly. The dwarf next to him who wanted to kick them out earlier finally made a move. Although this dwarf was petite, he was quite strong. Surprisingly, Philip could not sense his strength at all. The dwarf pointed with his finger, and a square box made of light appeared in front of Philip. Following the dwarf’s movement, the box got bigger until Philip was trapped inside. “I'll give you one last chance. If you choose to leave now, I can spare your life.” The dwarf stood on top of the box and said loudly to Philip inside. Philip could tell at a glance that the dwarf’s attack method was to break the space structure and activate a spell to trap Philip. Although this combat style was rare, it was also extremely dangerous. That was beca
The box formed by the light curtain collapsed. No matter how powerful that dwarf was, he could not simulate the attacks of the four elements at the same time. When he was about to create another light box again, he found that Philip was already standing in front of him, and the Caelum Sword was above his head. The sword blade was almost touching his bald head. “What? Do you want to repeat the same trick?” Philip steadied the sword in his hand and cut down a little. The dwarf promptly dodged lower. He was afraid that Philip's Caelum Sword would cut him in half too. At this moment, the sword spirit hiding in Philip’s Caelum Sword could hold back no longer. The sword spirit suddenly appeared in front of these dwarves. The commotion finally caught the merfolk’s attention. Although there was no noise when the light curtain box was created, the surrounding water exploded when Philip broke the box open. The merpeople were sensitive to fluctuations in the water element and
The sword spirit floated in the direction of those spirit bodies. Philip kept his eyes on her. His relationship with the sword spirit was not built in a day or two. He refused to believe that the sword spirit would abandon him. The gravity seemed to isolate the water flow. Although Philip felt as if he was caught in a swamp, energy burst from his body. He jerked one foot out, followed by the other. His movements seemed to slow down several times. His hand reached out to the sword spirit. A burst of flames covered his body, and his figure also changed at this time. He grew larger into a giant. This was the only way his strength could multiply and be used to resist the effect of gravity. However, the old man sneered at this sight. “Do you think it's useful to be bigger? The bigger your body, the more pressure you'll bear.” The scepter in the old man's hand thumped on the floor again. Although Philip's figure did not change, he gritted his teeth and withstood t
Philip separated the underwater world with his water element. The purpose was to let his level 7S fire element attack come into full play. The old man kept pounding the ground with his scepter. When all his strength was exhausted, the scepter shattered. The pressure on everyone disappeared in that instant. When this huge pressure disappeared, it also brought a strong sense of discomfort. Philip almost lost control of his form and flew into the sky. Fortunately, he managed to control his power at the last moment. Philip realized that when the scepter was broken, a gemstone appeared and blocked in front of the old man and the dwarves. Finally, the flames dissipated. The gemstone hovered in the air and burned. Seeing this scene, the eyes of the spirit bodies changed when they looked at Philip. Philip looked at the old man and said, “If I'm not mistaken, you should be the spirits of magic circles.” Before the old man could answer, Philip added, “Those derelict magic
Members of the Wagner family nodded vigorously, and even those who were not participating in the competition were excited. Everyone knew that they had to win, whether for the family or their personal honor. The young man taking part in the competition laughed smugly. As a grown man, how could he lose to a child? It would be too embarrassing if he lost! Defeat never crossed his mind, so he immediately sprang into action when the alarm rang. He launched a fierce attack without further ado, trying to end the fight quickly and show the child his powerful strength. However, when he charged at his opponent at full speed, the child was gone! The kid was nowhere to be found as if he had vanished into thin air. “You’re too slow.” A delicate voice sounded from behind him, and the child appeared in front of him. The guy was sent flying out of the battlefield with a kick before he realized what was going on. According to the rules, the fight would be over once one party died or was sent
Ronan quickly picked his opponent. He was surprised and wondered if Lady Luck was smiling at him or if the draw was rigged, but he actually picked the deep-sea merfolk right away. Although he wanted to teach them a lesson, he had to carry on with the act too. “Haha, this took no effort at all. Our opponent is Ronan!"Although Ronan is strong, we’re fully prepared this time. No matter how powerful he is, he’ll never escape our clutches!” The deep-sea merfolk sounded very confident, smiling brazenly as if certain of their victory. They had sent their strongest fighter this time. They had planned to reserve this person to deal with Philip, but they faced Ronan instead. Their contestants were not fixed in advance. Under unforeseen circumstances, they could choose a substitute. Therefore, they decided to assign this strongest fighter to face Ronan and Philip. This person’s name was Tangy. Tangy knew that he had to face two opponents, but he was not nervous at all. He hoped that h
“That’s enough. You may leave.” Ronan turned around and returned to Philip's side, unwilling to exchange more fake pleasantries with Cameron any longer. In his opinion, such empty talk was meaningless, and he did not want to say another word to that person. Philip smiled at Ronan’s indifference. “If you want to deal with the deep-sea merfolk, you need to make sure you don’t lose. Acting must be done wholeheartedly. Don’t let anyone realize that you’re acting,” Philip said to Ronan earnestly. Rabbit nodded vigorously. No one was better than him in acting. Ronan suddenly felt a little pressure. “Oh no, the pesky flies are here again.” Ronan frowned unhappily as the patriarchs of the families approached them. “I’m sure they're here for our wine!” Ronan did not want to sell the wine to them. Not to mention how much the wine had improved his strength, Ronan was a drinker himself. He would be left with nothing if they bought all his wine. “Ronan, we’re here again!” “You s
“Ronan, I know you’re unhappy with me, but the family is depending on you!” Cameron had to bite the bullet because he could not think of anyone but Ronan who could win the first prize. “Since I promised you, I’ll take part in the competition,” Ronan said calmly. However, Cameron could not help but feel something strange in his words. Ronan had come up with a plan after a discussion with Philip last night. Ronan was not in favor of helping Cameron because their relationship was so bad that it was not necessary for them to work together anymore. However, Philip had a different opinion. He was certain that the Claude family would put all hopes on Ronan, so he wanted Ronan to set them up. Ronan was not concerned about his reputation because he was not a hypocritical and superficial person. Hence, losing the competition meant nothing to Ronan. In that case, Philip did not want to miss this opportunity. Ronan would take part in the competition as agreed and try his best but witho
Of course, Philip knew that Nolly would seek revenge, but he was not worried at all. Philip had given Nolly the method to seek revenge before they left. Beating him in the family competition was a good way to take revenge. Philip knew that Nolly had accepted his suggestion and was probably thinking of a plan to deal with him. Seeing everyone looking at him expectantly, Nolly patted his chest. “Don’t worry about it. I have a plan. Since they’re so arrogant, they should be ready for it. We were careless and almost fell into their trap!” Nolly was unwilling to admit that he was not as strong as Ronan. In his opinion, he was at a disadvantage because of his carelessness. No one raised any objection. Since their chief had decided, they just had to follow orders. “I have to say that Philip is quite arrogant!” a man who looked more normal said unhappily. It seemed that he had a different opinion about this incident. “Doffy, what are your thoughts?” Nolly asked curiously. Doffy w
Ronan was very pleased with the outcome. Nolly glared at Ronan. He never expected that Ronan would be so difficult to deal with. He had done his best but could not do anything to Ronan. He felt that Ronan was just toying with him without using his full strength at all. “It’s very late. Everyone should go back to bed. I know that the deep-sea merfolk is going to take part in the family competition. In that case, let’s settle this on the battleground. We can place a bet or something at that time. What do you think?” Philip suggested, and Nolly thought he had a point. More importantly, Nolly knew that he definitely could not beat Ronan now. In that case, he should stop for now and find a way to deal with Philip later. Therefore, he pretended to consider Philip’s proposal. “You have a point, so I'll agree. In that case, let's meet again on the battlefield. I look forward to seeing your actual strength!” Nolly waved to his men in panic, signaling everyone to leave with him. His
However, the commotion came from outside the door. It felt as if someone was trying to raze his house to the ground. When he was about to go out for a look, Sadie, the jinx, ran up to him. Seeing her, Cameron felt a bad premonition, and his heart skipped a beat. “Patriarch, the deep-sea merfolk are here, fighting with Philip and Ronan. What should we do? I saw Ronan fighting with them just now, and the battle is very intense. Ronan doesn’t care about us at all. How could he fight in the manor? He’s simply outrageous!” Sadie added fuel to the fire. Cameron thought Philip was fighting, but it turned out to be Ronan. He was a little disappointed. “It’s Ronan?” He rushed out in a panic, afraid that something might happen to Ronan. It would be fine if it was just a simple fight, but they would be in trouble if Ronan was hurt and unable to participate in the competition! Cameron had done so much. He would not allow anything to ruin his plan. Thinking of this, he was very angry. “
Nolly looked at Ronan in puzzlement, wondering if he was right in the head. Nolly was here to kill them, not to reminisce about the past. Why was this guy so affectionate? “What are you doing? Do you think I won't kill you? You’re hanging out with that murderer, which tells me that you’re not a good person either. I won’t let you off!” Nolly scorned, full of killing intent. “Oh!” Ronan hummed obediently, catching Philip off-guard. Philip started coughing. Ronan was quite a handful. “Since they're here, I’ll leave it to you. Make it quick.” Anyway, Philip had set up a barrier. No one would notice even if a big fight broke out, so they had nothing to worry about. Philip would not have bothered to set up a barrier if he had not been afraid of destroying the surroundings. “Of course, my barrier will only protect your mother's territory. I can’t guarantee that other places won’t be destroyed if you take them a little farther away.” Philip’s seemingly innocent reminder stoked R
“Go through that passage and try not to alert anyone. Just get rid of him quietly!” Nolly nodded. Since Sadie was giving him this convenience, he would not make things difficult. He led his people to the house. After getting Philip’s exact location, he just had to go there. Ronan was drinking when he felt that something was wrong. “Philip, I have a feeling that someone is coming for us and wants to kill us! That killing intent is very strong!” Ronan looked around warily. Since drinking Philip’s wine, Ronan’s strength had increased significantly. Philip and Rabbit remained calm as if they had already expected this. “Don’t worry about some troublemakers. I believe they’ll be here soon,” Philip said calmly. He swaggered into the garden and finally decided not to destroy this place after looking at the surroundings. After all, this was where Ronan’s mother used to live, a place of memorial significance for Ronan. He would probably feel bad if this place was destroyed. “I’ll
