Oz turned a blind eye and told Alton about the storage ring that he saw today. Alton was dumbfounded, his reaction exactly the same as Oz’s earlier. “Gosh, what are you saying? Are you sure you're not kidding me?” Alton was shocked and wondered why someone would sell a storage ring. He trusted Philip. Although Alton detested Philip, he had to admit that the store sold pretty good stuff. A scam was impossible, and reality proved that Philip had a storage ring! “Did they mention the transaction process?” Alton said in a panic, regretful that he had distanced himself from Philip. If he had maintained a good relationship with Philip, he would not have to go to great lengths to buy a storage ring from Philip now. He knew Philip would not sell him a storage ring that easily now. In that case, he could only find other means to get the ring. “I heard that they’ll only sell rings to the first five people every day, and it won’t go on for long. They probably want to build up thei
Above all else, they did not have to worry about others eyeing their assets. All the treasures would be kept in the storage ring, so no one could get them easily. Oz was lost in his fantasies and wished he could get hold of a ring at once. Similarly, Alton was expectant and confident that he could easily get a storage ring with his abilities. Scarlet was envious and surprised to hear Philip selling such things. “Should I line up tomorrow? I want to get one too!” Scarlet said delicately, making furtive glances at Alton. Alton waved his hand and said, “Don't worry, I'll find someone to line up for you. I want to get hold of all the rings on hand anyway.” Alton knew that such a treasure would be highly sought after, so he had to make the first strike. “Does that idiot have any idea how valuable a storage ring is? Selling one for tens of thousands of energy stones is simply ridiculous!” Alton laughed at Philip. He could easily buy all the storage rings on sale with his weal
“What force does Treasure House belong to? The ability to own storage rings and sell them at such a low price is simply a waste of resources!” “I say the pills and storage rings should be given to us. No one but the Cod family has the right to own these things!” “I think we should send someone to line up right now until they open for business tomorrow.” The members of the Cod family were ready to make a move. Even if they could not get everything, they wanted most of them. “I don’t think we can get them so easily. Many forces should be aware of this by now and will do the same. Don’t get your hopes up,” Jeff advised earnestly, certain that many people would line up. However, many people were upset by Jeff’s remark. “Hehe, I just knew that you were never on the Cod family’s side!” “Everyone is eager to buy the storage rings, but you’re just pouring cold water on us!” “Sure enough, someone with a different last name can never represent the Cod family!” Vance said angrily,
After Noelle woke up at noon the next day, she leisurely opened the door for business again. This time, the queue extended from the entrance of Treasure House to the end of the street. “We want to buy a storage ring!” As soon as Noelle opened the door, everyone started shouting. Everyone wanted to get the ring, but the number was limited, and most of them knew they had missed the chance. However, they wanted to fight for it. What if Treasure House decided to sell unlimited quantities today? Noelle ignored them and invited the first five people in. They always stuck to the rules. Since they had agreed on five, they would only sell the rings to five people. These people were in disguise. Philip gave each of them a camouflage pill and told them to leave from the backdoor. It was normal for others to target them if they carried such a valuable item with them. Philip wanted to reduce this possibility. Of course, once they left this street, they had to fend for themselves.
It appeared in this place by accident. Even the beast had no idea how it left its mother’s side and ended up in this ghastly place.… Meanwhile, Imperial City was in chaos. Although Imperial City was safest, too many people had flooded the city. The inns were full, and many people had to sleep on the streets. Moreover, the crime rate was increasing as if many people were taking advantage of the chaos to cause more destruction. Fernand Larson, the eldest young master of the Larson family, was caught in this mayhem. He knew that he would be held accountable at this rate. After he arrived at this city, he was held in high regard due to his outstanding ability and quickly became captain of the city’s defense army. After years of hard work, his position was unshakeable. If this incident had not happened, he would probably have become the commander of the city’s defense army. The current commander had been assigned to Guzo Forest to investigate the truth, and Fernand was for
“I can’t believe that the acting commander of the city guards would be so cruel and ruthless to the point of disregarding human lives!” The prime minister kept complaining about what happened and could not bear it anymore. The refugees were very pitiful. The prime minister even provided a vacant house for them. The prime minister had many properties in Imperial City, and this empty house could accommodate many people. The weak and elderly led a tough life in hiding. Whenever they went out to buy something, they would be discovered as refugees. Thus, the prime minister even had to arrange for food and drinks to be sent to them. Hence, no one discovered the refugees hiding here for the time being, but Fernand was in the spotlight, leading his men in search of refugees and driving them out. The emperor looked very unhappy when he heard the report. He never thought Fernand would be so bold as to drive the refugees away without permission. “He believes that the refugees are the
Other cities would never accept them. His house was their only way out. Fernand was already lost in his bloodlust. At first, he let the Shadow Guards operate in private. Later, he personally captured the refugees in broad daylight. The people had to pay a certain fee if they wanted to stay in Imperial City, and no ordinary family could afford that amount. Those who paid up could stay in Imperial City for some time, while those who could not were driven away or killed on the spot. The refugees went into panic mode for a while. They had lost the chance to survive. Thus, many of them fled Imperial City. They did not dare to stay for fear that a bunch of killers would suddenly appear and kill them. … The Cod family developed rapidly and quietly. With Alton's help, they built their business, and Vance got swell-headed. After his family’s business developed rapidly, Vance was convinced that the city would belong to them in no time. Thus, he found it difficult to accept that T
Among the first five customers in line today, two were from the Cod family and two were from the mayor’s residence. The last one was a lucky bystander. Vance paid no heed. As soon as the door opened, he led his people forward to cause a commotion and dispersed all the people waiting in line. The people queueing up happily waiting to buy a storage ring were pushed away and disappeared among the crowd. Other people in line were confused about being chased away. Most importantly, their queue order had been disrupted! The people at the back of the queue happily pushed their way forward, trying to grab the first five spots while the people in front were pushed to the ground and trampled on. Noelle was dumbfounded by this scene. Everyone usually lined up in an orderly manner. Even if they were jealous of the first five customers, they would not do such an impulsive thing. This turn of events was very unusual. “Stop messing around!” Granite and his team quickly maintained the
“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
This young lady was finally strong enough to protect the beasts. “The grudge between me and those people runs so deep that I’ll never forgive them, so you can forget about it. You look like a good person, so I won’t make things difficult for you. You should leave this dreadful place at once.” Philip smiled helplessly at her words. “Don't worry, I don't like the people from Deadly Arena either, and I have a grudge against them too. In fact, everything happened because of them, so you don’t have to worry about it. If you want to restore this mysterious island to a place where the beasts can live in peace, you should work with me.” These people were not easy to deal with. Although Philip could deal with them with his strength, he would have to pay a price for it. It would be best if he had help. Philip had many ideas. “I’m surprised that you have a grudge against them too. The enemy of my enemy is my friend. Let’s talk about this.” The woman smiled excitedly. “My name is Foxy. I
Seeing the woman’s horror, Philip scratched his head awkwardly. He did not expect that her reaction would be so intense. “Don't worry, I'm not a good person.” After saying that, Philip sat down nonchalantly as if he was not worried about this powerful woman. Seeing Philip’s disregard for her, the woman was so angry that she could barely speak.“As you can see, I’m one of those humans,” Philip introduced himself. Philip had nothing to hide. His identity was no secret. “So, you’re one of those disgusting humans. You look quite strong. Since you found me, I’ll accept my fate. Just kill me if you want. There’s no need to insult me any further.” This woman was quite interesting. She jerked her chin up as if she was ready to let Philip kill her. Philip sighed at her reaction. Why was someone so eager to die? “I don’t want to kill you. I’m just curious about you. I just arrived at Deadly Arena recently,” Philip said to the other party sincerely. He was very curious about the
“You’re right, someone is controlling these beasts behind the scenes. Although I don’t know if the culprit is a powerful beast or a guild, they're not to be trifled with.” Philip did not hide this information but asked his men to take action. Since they were already here, they had to ensure their safety. No one would be exempted if anything happened. “You can join in the fight, but don’t try too hard. Just kill a few beasts and wait until I get to the bottom of this,” Philip said to his people. He was afraid that his men would work too hard but end up with nothing. Everyone nodded solemnly at Philip’s instructions. They quickly joined the battlefield and casually swung their weapons around, killing the arrogant beasts. Due to their strength, they easily crushed the beasts without much effort. As the fight reached its peak, Philip observed the source of the beast stampede. “Do you see that? The beasts are coming from that direction, and they’re clearly well-organized and d
Philip noticed the change and frowned at the mysterious man, whose expression changed drastically. “This is bad. I’ve never heard this alarm before.” After saying this, he invited Philip to go with him to Deadly Arena to find out what happened. They arrived at Deadly Arena and saw everyone staring ahead nervously as if waiting for someone to speak. Philip’s guild members noticed his return and approached him nervously. Aslan ran up to Philip worriedly. “Philip, I asked around and found something wrong. Deadly Arena is a dangerous place because it’s situated next to the beast forest. This situation has happened from time to time in the past, but no one was bothered. They’d even organize teams to hunt the beasts and Deadly Arena would provide rewards for this.” Philip roughly understood the situation from Aslan’s explanation. Since Deadly Arena had been managing this place for so long, they had taken responsibility for the safety issue. Once the beasts appeared, they would ensu
Argent thought he had come up with a good plan to set Philip up, but he was the fool who was kept in the dark in the end. Philip smiled at Argent’s angry departure and invited the mysterious man to his room. Although Philip chatted with him earlier, he did not know much about him. Philip could tell that the man had concealed his true appearance. Philip was curious to see what would happen. The mysterious man noticed Philip’s anticipation but simply stared at him in silence. Philip wanted to know his identity and purpose for coming here. “I really think highly of you. It’d be best if you could join me.” He knew that Philip would not give in so easily, so his rationality told him to give up. “It’s impossible for me to join you, but I’m curious about your situation. I believe you have a grudge against that guy or you wouldn’t resent him so much.” Philip smiled at the guy. He knew that the grudge between the two was very deep. The mysterious man was surprised that Philip
