Alton roughly guessed Philip’s identity. “Philip, I notice your strange attire. Are you from that place?” Alton asked curiously. In his opinion, since they were already on familiar terms, it was no big deal to ask about it. Besides, he had revealed everything about himself. Everyone was surprised and respectful after they learned that he was the mayor of Cosmo City. Only Philip and his people remained calm and indifferent. In fact, Philip had guessed Alton’s identity, so he was not surprised. He was even a little smug about his accurate guess. However, Philip had no idea what Alton was talking about. “What place are you talking about? Tell me more about it. I want to know if we’re thinking of the same place,” Philip said with a smile but did not reveal anything. Alton explained patiently, “Everyone knows that apart from the two continents, there’s also a mysterious island full of amazing people. They dress differently from us, and they're very strong. A pill they make at ra
“The people of that island dress differently like you, and you're strong too. I don't think these pills and weapons can be made by anyone from this continent.” Alton smiled. Everything was his speculation. “Tell me more about that place. I’m curious about this island now.” Philip’s remark was also his answer. He did not say where he came from, but he denied that he came from the mysterious island. Alton's mind raced as he wondered about Philip. They were having a great conversation, and Philip did not seem to be lying. However, his background was very mysterious, and it was not convenient to reveal it now. Alton knew it must be an untold secret. Since Philip was unwilling to reveal anything, there was no point in dwelling on it. He quickly told Philip the location of the mysterious island, and Philip’s mind raced. “Let’s close the store for a few days. I want to visit that place,” Philip said with a smile. The situation in the ancestral land did not look good. Philip co
Philip did not take it to heart. “It’s okay. I don’t care about such things. I want to take a look at that place. “We sell valuable items in this store, so I don’t trust anyone else to take care of it. If that’s the case, it's better to close the shop for a few days before I return from that place,” Philip said easily with a smile on his face. Alton said worriedly, “I don’t think that’s a good idea. That place is notorious for being dangerous. Even the most powerful people found it difficult to escape from the sea safely. “You have to go through the sea area to reach the mysterious island, but no one has managed that feat so far. Even the well-known expert simply entered the island by chance without going through the sea.” Alton heard that the expert was lucky enough to arrive at the island. If Philip wanted to take on the challenge, the best outcome would be a safe retreat while the worst outcome would be to disappear at sea. He thought the second outcome was more likely t
“I have a student in Cosmo City. You can go with Alton and find my student there. Hand this item to him and join him. I'll head to Cosmo City when I return from that place.” Indeed, Orbit City was too small for Philip and his group. More importantly, most major forces here had been obliterated. Bijou Parlor was all quiet, and the mayor had developed his forces, weakening the power of the Larson family in secret. The mayor should be able to take over the whole city before long. In Philip’s opinion, it was just a matter of time. Philip looked forward to the mayor’s accomplishment. Since the mayor was eager to become stronger, he definitely had his abilities. Everyone's eyes lit up. Granite did not think that Philip would accept his allegiance. In his opinion, Philip was a mysterious person. It would be best if Philip was willing to accept him. Alton was the happiest, smiling brightly. He never expected that Philip would choose to go to Cosmo City. Although his city wa
Philip smiled and said, “Noelle, I think you should go with them and meet up with the little guy. Let the mayor help you open a store in the business district and sell whatever the kid made.” At first, Philip wanted to bring Noelle with him, but he had another idea now. Since Bijou Parlor would come after him, Philip did not intend to let them off either. They could try to take him on. He refused to believe that Bijou Parlor would be stronger than him. The best pill they could produce was at level seven while the pills his students could make were much better than that. The alchemy theory and method used here were completely different from the ones Philip used, so their best pill meant nothing to him! Noelle was excited about this arrangement. It was no easy task to explore the island with Philip and the guys. Noelle preferred to mess around. “Don’t worry, leave this to me! I can handle it easily!” Noelle smiled brightly. She had already thought of how to confront the o
“That’s great. Since we’ll be a family from now on, you may dispense with the formalities. Just go with Noelle and listen to her arrangements. “Bijou Parlor will definitely come after us sooner or later, so you need to improve your strength. Take this and level up!” Now that they had joined him, Philip handed them several pills without further ado. “These pills will help you level up.” Philp handed Noelle some body reconstructing potions. “After you arrive in Cosmo City, let them use this. They can only put up a good fight after they level up.” Philip knew that he had to develop a certain force. Whether he had to struggle to survive on this continent or that conniving and intriguing continent, Philip had to find his own large-scale force and develop it to deal with turncoats. No one else knew what the potions were used for, but Noelle smiled brightly. Noelle had been tortured miserably by this potion. All of them had soaked in this potion and experienced the pain of despair
“Don’t worry, Philip. We’ll make sure to do this successfully!” Granite said with a smile. He wanted to become stronger too. Alton, Cosmo, and Oz looked at them enviously. They knew that these potions were hard to come by. Maybe they could never find the chance to get a potion like that in this lifetime. “We plan to set off early tomorrow morning. Will you join us?” Alton invited them. Everyone looked at Granite. Although Philip handed an important task to Noelle, Granite was responsible for most things. This team belonged to Granite, so Philip would not intervene. He simply asked Noelle to set up a store as quickly as possible. Granite saw everyone’s expectant looks and realized Philip’s intention. Philip did not see him as a subordinate at his disposal but as a comrade. Philip would seek his consent if there was a problem. It felt great to be respected. Philip was curious to see Granite’s decision. In his opinion, Granite would never choose to follow Alton. However, most
If this pill could be mass-produced, they could easily develop their own force. This opportunity was hard to come by. Thus, Alton kept a close eye on Rhea to confirm if the pill was the real deal. Before this, Alton would definitely think it was fake and gloss things over with Philip. After all, certain things had to be seen to be believed. Now that someone was testing the pill in front of him, he had to watch closely. Sure enough, Rhea quickly felt her body heating up before she leveled up. Rhea was quite talented to level up so quickly, but the others were not aware of this. Alton and his party were dumbfounded at this scene. How could such an amazing pill exist? The others took the pill without hesitation, smiling brightly as they reveled in the pills' effects. Seeing their rapid improvement in strength, Alton was excited. Alton wanted the pill too, but he knew Philip had no intention of giving it to him. They had no ties to each other, so there was no need for Philip to giv
