“Not only did that bird steal my things, but it also pooped on my head! It went too far!” Philip could totally imagine the scene. He was very interested in the treasure mentioned by Aslan and wanted to know what it was. “Since we have time, let’s go and take a look. The treasure flew out from the mountain back then, so we can head there.” Aslan turned into a huge lion and carried Philip on his back up the mountain. Aslan quickly made his way up the mountain with his huge size and agile movements. The day passed in the blink of an eye. Many people entered the secret realm one after another. The first batch of people who entered the secret realm were very lucky with no major casualties so far. However, things were different for the next batch. As soon as they entered the forest, they encountered the Marching Red Ants who were frantically searching for their enemies. The ants were good at fighting and appeared in troops, so their strength could not be underestimated. The
Philip was more perceptive than Aslan. Although the latter was very strong and belonged to the monster beast family, he was no match for Philip’s techniques. Philip’s perception was the best! Aslan looked at Philip curiously and asked, “How did you know there was a magic circle there? I came here before and didn’t notice anything.” Aslan looked at Philip with admiration. If not for Philip’s young age, he would have thought that Philip had been living here for a long time. Philip was embarrassed. He had no idea how to explain this. If he told the truth, it would seem that he was bragging. In any case, it would make no difference. Philip decided to keep quiet and retain an air of mystery. After sensing the magic circle, Philip felt a little nervous. There was more to it than met the eye, and Philip was neither good at making nor breaking magic circles. He worriedly searched through Verge Tower but found no books about magic circles, leaving him in a dilemma. If he could n
Aslan picked up some stones from the ground and threw them at the bird. However, the stones could not get close to the annoying bird at all. They shattered as soon as they reached the village. The bird flew to the village in fright. Aslan cursed indignantly as the bird vanished from his sight. He wished he could go back in time to a thousand years ago, when he would still have the chance to deal with this wretched bird. However, that was wishful thinking. He obviously could not deal with the bird and was humiliated again and again. “Philip, think of a way for us to enter this village. I want to catch that bird and make you some roasted bird meat! Your strength will be greatly enhanced after the meal. Trust me!” Aslan said viciously, hating the bird to the core. Philip chuckled at Aslan. He was definitely going to enter the village, but he had yet to figure out the way. He was baffled too. Philip tried to get closer to the village and found a strong force sucking him into
Aslan grimaced at Philip’s suggestion of tossing him over. “Forget it, I think you should toss me over instead.” In hindsight, how was Aslan going to bring him over? In that case, the first option would not solve the problem. To be on the safe side, Philip decided to go alone. Aslan was more exasperated at the thought of Philip acting alone. His life was bound to Philip’s. if something happened to Philip, he would not be spared either. Nonetheless, Aslan wanted to trust Philip. “Okay, since you have the galls for it, I’ll join you!” Aslan patted his chest as if to assure Philip. Philip nodded. After all, Aslan was an elite monster beast, and Philip trusted him. At Philip’s command, Aslan made a lifting motion. Philip stepped on his hand and jumped forward. Aslan used all his strength to throw Philip up. Philip underestimated Aslan’s strength and was sent flying. He quickly exceeded the range of the magic circle and entered the village. Philip was extremely
However, Aslan was not interested in this secret treasure at all. “I don’t care about the treasure. I just want to get my hands on that damned bird!” Aslan said viciously, wishing he could tear the bird into pieces. Philip laughed at their deep enmity. “Wow, you actually hate that bird so much. But this place definitely contains valuable treasures or there wouldn't be a divine beast standing guard here,” Philip said calmly as if he had uncovered everything. “A guardian divine beast?” Aslan exclaimed in surprise. “Yeah, let’s not deal with it for now. You have to wait until I get the thing before you can touch that bird,” Philip said. He was afraid that Aslan could not hold back his anger and seek revenge. Aslan nodded and breathed a sigh of relief. He was afraid that Philip would stop him from dealing with that legendary divine beast. He really hated that damned bird very much. Philip wanted to tease Aslan but lost the mood after looking at the cave filled with bones.
Aslan quickly approached Philip to find out how to use the pills. After all, monster beasts like them had very few pills, so he was very interested in them. As soon as he heard that Philip was actually giving him a treasure like the replenishment pills, he instantly became Philip’s fanboy. “Why don’t you give me the whole bottle so that I can slowly consume them?” Aslan was expectant, hoping to get more. Whether he would take the pills or not, they could play a big role in the preservation of his life. They could be used as a powerful counter-attack at critical moments. They were more valuable than anything else. Philip rolled his eyes. This guy thought too highly of himself. “Shut it. Do you think the pills are produced in bulk?” Although Philip had a lot of them, it did not mean he would generously share them. Even if Aslan was now one of his own, his ignorance gave Philip a headache. Philip resolved to spend some time teaching him some things after this. When Aslan
Aslan tentatively sought Philip's consent. “How could it point the treasure to us? If you ask me, it probably wants to lure us into the trap it set,” Philip said calmly like a wise man who had seen through everything. Aslan was skeptical. He did not think this was a trap. “But it flew out from inside!” Aslan frowned, thinking that the bird had many secrets. Philip shook his head and said, “Since it’s a guardian divine beast, it wouldn’t stray too far away from the thing it’s guarding. Since it’s flying in one direction so anxiously, this proves that it wants to trick us,” Philip explained, and Aslan looked thoughtful. Maybe it was all the bird’s conspiracy as Philip mentioned. “Let’s find out if my guess is right.” Philip smiled as he walked to a cave. There were several spooky caves around, and Aslan had no idea why Philip picked that one. When he thought Philip would enter the cave, Philip simply walked back and forth at the entrance with no intention of going in.
Without further ado, Philip walked to the cave. The bird tried every means to protect the cave, which proved that the treasure had to be inside. Philip felt a little nervous. With a snap of his fingers, he ignited some flames to illuminate the path around him. Aslan smacked his thigh in realization upon hearing Philip’s explanation. “Hehe, that bird is too dumb to go up against you. You really do know how to deal with it!” After saying this, Aslan followed happily, fearing that Philip would leave him behind. The two entered the cave and instantly felt a gust of cold wind blowing on their faces. It was very strange, indeed. Philip tried to sense the surroundings, but the cave was full of bones with nothing else to be seen. He felt this place was just a dead cave without any life. After walking inside for several minutes and turning a corner, it was pitch-black all around. Even the flames could hardly illuminate the path ahead. “I seem to recall a legendary race called
Yule was amazed by the person in the portrait, not expecting to see such a beautiful woman. He was somewhat skeptical after seeing the drawing. He had never seen such a beautiful woman in his life. Could it be the other party’s imagination? “Don’t worry, Yule. This woman is definitely real. I have an eye for beauty, so I’d never make a mistake.” Yule nodded at his subordinate's suggestive expression. Even if he was unreliable in other aspects, he would never mess up in this area. He was notorious for hanging out in various entertainment venues and was not a good guy. Yule quickly made copies of the woman’s portrait and spread the news everywhere. He looked forward to meeting this beautiful woman as soon as possible. In the meantime, Aslan finished his meal and walked on the streets idly. Yule stood on the streets, confident that he would find the woman with so many people helping him. “Hey, what's going on? Why is Foxy’s portrait posted everywhere? Has someone discovered he
“No matter what I do next, you and your people just need to go with the flow. If you agree, I’ll do my best to take care of the beast problem immediately. Of course, you don't have to worry about my source of information. My lips are sealed on this topic.” Yule quickly reached an agreement with these people. Then, Yule arrived at a remote house where all his men were hiding. He asked his men to do something unlawful for him, and they entered the beast forest by mistake because they wanted to escape justice, but they ran into Foxy by accident. Foxy realized from birth that she and her kind had a grudge against humans, but she was an inexperienced youngling, after all. She did not know much about humans and failed to notice their ulterior motives. The other party took note of Foxy’s appearance and made a detour back to safety. Yule arrived at his subordinate’s house anxiously. “Tell me everything you know about that person again. I have some information but it’s not compreh
“Let’s do it this way. We can treat this as a test. If he can solve this problem, we’ll give him a chance.” “That’s a good idea. The beasts have always been a thorn in our sides. It’ll be great if we can take care of this once and for all.” “Since he looks so confident, maybe he can really resolve this. We might as well make use of him to get rid of this problem.” “The beasts have been fighting with us for many years. We can save a lot of trouble if this plan succeeds.” Everyone expressed their opinion and seemed very keen to rely on Yule to solve this difficult problem. Ten minutes were soon up, and Yule quickly returned to the room. He looked very relaxed and even had a drink in his hand. “So, gentlemen, are you done with the discussion? Do you have a better suggestion for my future development?” Yule smiled triumphantly, obviously certain of his victory. As he expected, everyone chose to give in. After all, this was not something anyone could do. Yule would be the best
Yule felt very smug after seeing everyone’s reactions. Clearly, these people could only rely on him to take care of this problem. “Since you’re so curious, let me explain. Indeed, someone is controlling the situation behind the scenes. She can easily control the beasts with her ability. However, I don’t know the woman’s identity. Maybe she’s a powerful being or just an ordinary person. Who knows?” Yule's subordinates were the ones who told him what they saw that day. “I know that woman’s appearance, so I know what to do. You don’t have to worry about it.” Everyone glanced at each other with a grim look, wondering if they should believe Yule. After all, Yule knew something they did not. “Hehe, I just wanted to tell you my plans, that’s all.” Yule wanted to take control of the initiative. The elders and people in charge looked worried. They knew exactly what Yule wanted. “I want a certain authority. Of course, it should be higher than my father’s limit. As you know, I’ve al
Compared to the money they earned at Deadly Arena, the accommodation fee was nothing. Therefore, many people chose to stay in the living quarters provided by Deadly Arena and thought the environment was quite good. The people of Deadly Arena knew about the crisis they were facing. Something felt wrong, so they had to pay attention to it. “Don’t you find the beasts acting strangely this time? They didn’t seem interested in our things but simply left after giving us a warning.” “Yeah, I think something is wrong too. There must be a secret behind it. We have to figure it out.” The people in charge of Deadly Arena gathered for a meeting over this major incident. Yule looked at everyone with disdain as if he thought they were worried over nothing. “The beasts obviously recognized our strength, so they backed away. Stop worrying over nothing.” Yule had always thought highly of himself and looked down on everything. Hearing this, everyone scowled and wished they could teach Yule
“Foxy was the one controlling the beast stampede earlier. The beasts would've razed this place to the ground if I hadn't stopped them in time.” Philip shook his head helplessly. The fence around Deadly Arena had been flattened during the stampede, enough to prove how terrible the earlier battle was. “But of course!” Foxy nodded smugly. The people here would probably be in bad shape if she had not stopped the attack in time. Philip smiled and shook his head. “This young lady is a force to be reckoned with. She simply had to blow a flute to control all the beasts.""I'm sure that all the guilds will try every means to capture Foxy if they find out about her ability,” Lyle said, envious of her ability. Aslan sighed awkwardly. As a monster beast, he had no ability in other areas at all. He could only use his brawn to intimidate others. As if he felt the difference in strength, Aslan lowered his head and was too embarrassed to say another word. Foxy chatted with everyone happil
Aslan was surprised to see Philip bringing a petite and beautiful woman back all of a sudden. “Hey, Philip, where did you pick up such a beautiful woman? I'm so envious.” “You sure have luck with women, Philip. You picked up such a beautiful woman just by going out. It’d be great if I have such luck too.” Aslan and Lyle started teasing Philip, annoying him so much that he almost knocked them out. “Cut the crap. Her name is Foxy, and she's our new teammate. Come with me, everyone. We need to find a safe place to discuss our next plans.” Philip quickly took everyone away. He looked very excited, obviously looking forward to his next plan. Everyone nodded excitedly at Philip’s appearance. They were also curious, wondering what Philip was going to do. Since the beasts had retreated, everyone returned to the lounge area for a break without further ado. Deadly Arena would also be closed for the day and reopen the next day. The inn Philip chose for them was quite luxurious, an
Since their master was dead, these subordinates had to approach the people of Deadly Arena for help. They would be bullied without a master to take charge. They finally found a chance to join a strong employer. Now that he was dead, everyone was at a loss for what to do. “What? He’s dead? This is too much. Find out who those people are. I don’t care which force they belong to or who they have behind them, we need to wipe them out!” This person was Amos, the second in command of Deadly Arena. He knew how to deal with such provocation. “These people are too bold to touch a member of my family. Everyone knows that our children are powerful and undefeatable on this battlefield.” The second in command was annoyed and not in the mood to deal with this incident. His anger over this matter added to his initial agitation. His subordinates were surprised to see his irritation. “What’s wrong, Amos? Why are you so upset? Are the beasts up to something again?” As the second-in-comma
On the battlefield, Aslan was puzzled by the beasts’ sudden retreat. “Maybe the beasts are scared shitless by our strong combat power and decided to give up.” “You got that right. I killed several of them at once and looked really cool.” “But I have a feeling that the beasts this year are much stronger and have greater potential.” Everyone spoke excitedly. The people who killed many beasts had returned for their rewards. They thought highly of the rewards and could not wait to take all the treasures of Deadly Arena.… “Can you control the beasts from a distance?” Philip asked curiously. Foxy nodded. “I can control these beasts no matter where I am. It’s my individual talent.” Since everything went as planned, Philip pondered what to do next. “You should come with me. I’ll tell you about my next plan in detail.” Philip decided to bring Foxy into Deadly Arena. Foxy nodded seriously. She trusted Philip very much and never doubted him at all. He felt a little embarra
