Philip could set a rule that anyone who wanted to purchase his pills had to take part in the war. In this way, all the forces, large or small, would be forced to take part. Philip's words aroused Elijah's curiosity. He looked at Philip in puzzlement but hesitated to ask. In the end, he simply nodded and started eating. Since Philip was so confident that he could handle everything, Elijah would forget his worries for now and wait for tomorrow.… The next day arrived. Elijah got up early and sat on the couch waiting for Philip. He was surprised to find many kids doing morning exercises. He thought it was a routine morning exercise like the ones in school, but he later discovered that the kids were absorbing the energy in the surroundings. It was simply amazing. Some of the stronger kids had reached the seventh zone while the weaker ones were at the peak of the sixth zone. After the morning exercise of absorbing energy, they took out their alchemy furnaces and medicinal materia
The pills made by the kids were perfectly round, simply surreal. There had to be an expert alchemist in the villa or they could never have groomed such outstanding students. More importantly, each student had a storage ring! Elijah’s eyes almost popped out from this shocking scene. A storage ring was a rare item. Even Elijah only owned a storage bag. He could not figure out how the gap between practitioners could be so huge. Mistral Temple could be considered a relatively wealthy force, but they could hardly flaunt their wealth like this. Thus, Elijah started to wonder about Philip’s background. Philip smiled at Elijah’s nervous reaction. “Just call me Philip!” Philip did not put on airs. He did not think these things were worth mentioning. He simply wanted Elijah to know what he was capable of. Elijah was surprised by Philip's humble attitude but simply nodded. “I can hardly wait to visit the guilds now. What are you going to give me?” Elijah glanced at Philip doubtf
Philip made a cup for Elijah and invited him to drink. Elijah put the box away respectfully and took a sip of tea. His eyes widened. Even as a centenarian, he had never seen such a top-quality spiritual tea! Elijah's eyes flickered in astonishment. Philip was simply amazing to come up with this tea. “They should know what to do,” Philip said. These people would realize many things after seeing the pill. Philip could not force them to take part in the war, but he felt they would make the right choice if they were smart. If they refused to join in, they would have to fight alone when the extraterrestrial creatures invaded. It would be a nightmare if they could not receive any reinforcements in that situation. On the other hand, they could gain friendly troops and such an amazing pill by taking part in the war. Normal people should know what to do. After taking several sips of the delicious spiritual tea, Elijah lost no time and went out with his clergy members again. The
The leader of the Avine Guild could have considered reaching an agreement with Elijah but decided to give up when he saw no benefit in doing so. Others would laugh at him if they found out he had reached an agreement with Elijah for nothing. He smiled as he looked at the box handed over by Elijah. The exquisite box was extraordinary at a glance. As he reached out for the box, Elijah shrank back. “Please don’t touch it. Let me show you.” Elijah opened the box and presented the pill in front of the other party. The leader of the Avine Guild glanced at the box nonchalantly, but his attention was quickly attracted. It was that pill! Although he had no idea what pill it was, he could easily tell from the round shape and lack of aroma that it was a pill made by Philip. Any pill made by Philip was enough to prove its value. “What’s this pill?” the leader asked, immediately toning down his attitude. Elijah was surprised by his change of attitude and became more confident. “Th
Elijah thought what he had seen and heard yesterday was nothing but a dream. The other party was very arrogant and even kicked him out of the guild yesterday, but his attitude took a complete turn today. “Here, let me make you a pot of tea and have a nice chat.” The guild leader waved his hand as a signal for the attendant to pour tea. Elijah shook his head and said, “That’s okay. I can't give you this pill yet. That person will hand it to you personally when you join the war.” Elijah stood up and was about to leave. Ever since he tasted Philip’s tea, nothing else could whet his appetite. Elijah only wanted another sip of Philip's spiritual tea. That tea was definitely of great benefit to him. After just a few sips, he could feel the clarity of his mind and improvement in his practice. Any other tea he drank now would only be tasteless and wasteful. Besides, he had other things to do and had no time to waste here. “I need to contact the other guilds and won’t take any m
After sensing the power of this weapon, Novak wanted to throw away all his existing weapons. Only this weapon was worthy of being called a weapon! The things they had been using were no more dangerous than a broomstick compared to this! Novak’s mind raced. He wanted to steal these things. This place was a storeroom filled with various weapons. No one would notice if he stole a few. He stuffed the weapon into his pocket. He simply wanted to steal one at first, but when Novak was about to leave, he was surprised to find various pieces of armor on the side. “Gosh, I have to have one of these. My safety will be guaranteed with such good protective armor! These shoes are not bad either. They can increase my speed after putting them on.” Novak exclaimed as he walked and could not conceal it anymore. He could hide some small weapons in his pocket, but there was no room for large items such as armor and shoes. He pondered and decided to take the things back to his room. When he o
Preston hid in the corner and watched silently with a bright smile on his face. That guy was scared out of his wits. Preston knew the room contained a barrier, and anyone had to hold a token before they could take anything from that room. Only people staying in the villa had this token. Therefore, Novak’s attempt was futile no matter how hard he tried. That was why Preston told him about the storeroom. Preston was not worried that anyone could steal anything at all! On the other hand, Novak's plan failed. He ran out in a panic and bumped into Philip drinking tea in the garden. Philip was puzzled by his panic. This guy had clearly done something wicked. “What’s up?” Philip took a sip of tea and asked calmly. Novak calmed down and realized his position. As a high and mighty practitioner, why should he be afraid? After seeing Philip, Novak decided to do something else. He should try to get into Philip’s good books. It would be perfect once he became one of Philip’s own.
Philip roughly guessed the situation. Preston was a mischievous kid and always came up with weird ideas. He guessed that Preston was trying to pull a prank on Novak, who could not resist the temptation and entered the storeroom. “I noticed that the positions of some weapons had been changed. I think someone tried to steal some things but failed!” Preston glanced thoughtfully at Novak next to him. Novak was already feeling guilty and panicked under his scrutinizing eyes. “Why are you looking at me like that? Do you suspect me?” Novak brought up the topic, as good as shooting himself in the foot. “What are you talking about? I didn't say it was you. I’m just curious to see you here!” Preston shrugged in exasperation. Novak realized that Preston was right. By putting his name to the accusation, it was as good as admitting it. Novak was angry and said, “I'm going back to my room. Please excuse me.” Novak turned around and walked away, not wanting to stay there any longer. H
