Meanwhile, Philip had no idea someone was plotting against him. Since he dared to display his pills in front of everyone, he had nothing to fear. He simply wanted to boost Granite’s confidence. He knew that Granite and his team were willing to follow him because they believed in him. In that case, he had to let them know that their trust was correct. Philip planned to head to Cosmo City next. It was important for Alton to realize his strength too. If Alton was smart, he would not do anything in secret. If he was stupid, Philip had nothing to fear either. After all, he had many people under his command. Philip and the others packed their things, made plans for the next step, and were ready to set off early the next morning. Granite and his team did not make much use of Philip’s accommodation. They were just spending one night, and there was no need to take up so much space. The five of them squeezed on one bed comfortably. “Granite, is it really okay for us to level up so quic
Granite thought that his teammates were so innocent. “You silly goose! Do you think he won’t be tempted by the pills? Philip has no intention of giving them anything, so they can only watch helplessly! What if they use us to threaten Philip?” Granite was a very experienced hunter with a thorough understanding of human nature. He knew that nothing was scarier than human beings. Although Alton seemed like a kind father and a nice person, that did not mean he was good. Every man for himself. That proverb held true. In order to improve himself, Alton was likely to use them to threaten Philip. “We need to reach Cosmo City safely and improve our strength so that Philip can stop worrying about us!” Everyone nodded solemnly. This order was simple enough. “Don’t worry, we’ll do as we’re told and not cause trouble.” Everyone chatted until they fell asleep.… Early the next morning, Philip and Aslan embarked on their journey. The direction given to them was pretty clear. Phil
The beasts were wary of the terrifying auras. They sensed that the auras were left by humans and wondered what the humans were up to. The forest had been weird recently, and all the beasts were ready to make a move. With Philip adding fuel to the fire, most beasts had a bad impression of humans. The beasts were ready to make an uprising. “Philip, we finally arrived. Although this place looks peaceful, I feel like something is wrong.” Aslan stared at the sea in puzzlement. This place was very beautiful but unusually quiet. The sea had no waves and looked like stagnant water. “I've seen the sea before, so I can't be fooled! There should be waves. Just look at the pool of stagnant water. Not to mention waves, I don’t think we can even find any sea creatures here,” Aslan grumbled. Philip was puzzled too. Although he had never seen this particular sea before, he noticed the anomaly. Philip grabbed a seagull, tapped it on its head, and let it go. The seagull flew to the sea as if
Aslan glanced at Philip nervously, observing his reaction. He was ready to change his tone at the drop of a hat. It was just his personal opinion. Alton might not really be that type of person. He was afraid that his opinion would put thoughts into Philip’s mind. To his surprise, Philip smiled and nodded. “You’re quite smart. Your IQ seems to have increased after staying in the human world for a while.” Philip gave Aslan a rare compliment. Normally, Philip would laugh at Aslan, unlike today. Aslan acutely noticed something was amiss, so he deserved praise. “I’m glad that he wants to save his child. Maybe he’s a good father, but he’s not necessarily a good friend.” They had to be careful when making friends with such people. The mayor of Orbit City was different from Alton. Although Tory Jobb was smart in his way, his thoughts and mentality were quite mature. He never thought of using any means to gain anything from Philip. Even if he wanted pills and weapons, he made a fa
Philip finally made an important decision. “After we finish exploring this place, we have to start moving everyone to this world,” Philip told Aslan. Aslan was shocked to hear Philip’s decision. “Are you saying we don’t have to stay in that crappy place anymore?” Aslan said excitedly. He preferred this place. Although the ancestral land was nice and had various electronic facilities that caught all his attention, he preferred this life. “I was bored there because I could only stay in the villa. The moment I go out, the sparse energy would make me uncomfortable.” Aslan was quite demanding. Although the energy in this world was not as good as in the villa, it was better compared to the outside world in the ancestral land. “It’ll be amazing once we settle down and set up another energy-gathering formation.” Aslan was excited at the thought of settling down in this place. “Oh, do you want to settle down here so much? I have a feeling that a disaster will happen in the ancestr
Philip and Aslan chatted as they circled almost half of the sea area. They did not find anything strange or the entrance to the mysterious island. Philip frowned and felt something was wrong. “Why don’t we jump into the sea?” Philip decided to take a gamble. He knew it was dangerous, but who knew if the entrance was in the sea if he did not give it a try? After all, Philip found the security door in the sea during his last dangerous exploration. If the treasure in this place was also under the sea, his decision would be spot on. “Let’s take a look in the sea,” Philip suggested. It was a dangerous proposal. No one knew what lay in this dark and eerie sea. “Although the sea looks scary, I don’t think we can find anything,” Aslan said in disdain. He felt that nothing in this place could threaten him, but Philip did not share the same thought. This place seemed dangerous, so it was better to stay on guard. “You should watch out. I have a feeling there's more than meets the ey
The carnivorous fish with sharp teeth did not have time to react before they were shredded into pieces. The sea instantly turned dark with blood, adding to the terror of the sea. Seeing Philip’s decisive action, Aslan followed suit. Although the fish could not harm them, it was annoying to be chased after and bitten. Moreover, their clothes were thin and flimsy. The fish would go through the gaps and bite them. Aslan could hardly stand them! After dealing with these annoying pests, Philip dived into the depths of the seabed. They quickly reached the bottom of the sea. Along the way, they saw nothing else but those pesky carnivorous fish. “Philip, are these the only things here?” Aslan asked. Philip frowned and felt that this whole affair was very strange. Since they had reached the bottom, it was impossible not to see anything. However, reality proved him wrong. Other than increasingly obscured vision, no further changes happened. Philip became wary. He was surprised to f
Fortunately, Aslan’s crush was not around or he would have been embarrassed as hell. “You’re a macho lion. If your beauties in the harem saw this, it’d be embarrassing as hell,” Philip teased. It was a comical sight for a burly guy to end up like this. Aslan felt embarrassed too. He always cared about his image and would never allow something like this to happen to him. Aslan accepted the fact that Philip had seen him like this. It was no big deal for Philip to see him like this, as long as it was not a beautiful woman! Aslan relaxed at this thought, but Philip was puzzled. He wanted to make fun of Aslan, but he accepted it so quickly, which was inconsistent with his nature. However, Philip did not dwell on it. He started exploring the cave after Aslan stood up. There had to be treasures in this weird and mysterious cave. “Look around and be careful. I suspect we can find treasures here,” Philip reminded Aslan. He was not afraid that Aslan would get hurt but afraid that he wo
