Oz had to catch up to Philip out of the city. Philip had left Cosmo City with Aslan in the direction of Guzo Forest. “There are so many beasts out here,” Aslan marveled. Aslan was here to prove his ability. Although the beasts in the forest had gotten stronger, their intelligence did not improve. It was as if something simply enhanced their strength. Aslan felt very satisfied when he sensed the beasts’ awe toward him. “Hehe, you guys better maintain your respectful attitude!” Aslan swaggered among the beasts. Philip really felt like smacking the smug look off Aslan’s face. Aslan had always been arrogant. He deserved it if someone bashed him up because of it. Philip left easily, but things were different for Oz. Although he brought the sachet with him, the beasts were curious about the sachet. They would not attack the person with the sachet, but they were attracted by the smell. Oz was surrounded by so many beasts that his knees went weak and he could not continue wal
The soldiers grimaced. They wanted to act tough too, but they were not up to it! Lance was highly valued because of his ability, but he was not given a high position because of his frankness and inability to conceal his emotions. On the contrary, Fernand Larson was not that capable, but with a bit of skill and flattery, he did quite well for himself. Lance had always disliked Fernand, so they were always at odds with each other in court to the point of fighting, which made the emperor unhappy. Lance was sent to deal with the beasts because of Fernand’s repeated instigation. “Everyone knows that this mission is highly dangerous. Out of so many commanders, they just had to send me!” Lance grumbled. Although he would take the initiative to wipe out the beasts under normal circumstances, it felt different when he was pushed to the frontline. As they moved forward, a beast dozens of meters high suddenly appeared before them. The towering trees around them were ripped apart a
Lance cursed aloud, but no one replied to him. They had no idea what was going on. “Damn it, I saw it! It's that dude over there!” a soldier cursed in anger, wishing he could give that stranger a beating. The wooden stick was thrown by Aslan. They saw the situation and wanted to help, but Philip changed his mind at the last minute and decided to get rid of the beast. In his opinion, it should be an easy task. Aslan was amused by the cursing soldiers. “Oops, I’m sorry. I didn’t think this would happen. I wanted to help you, but my attack missed!” Aslan said awkwardly and seemed apologetic. Lance was furious and at a loss for what to say. “Ignore him. Let’s go!” Lance was worried that the beast would chase after them. The beast was simply messing around in the forest without going out to cause destruction. After this incident, however, it might chase after them and kill them all. As they got ready to run, the beast swung its tail and sent everyone flying. They lay on th
Maybe this guy could really take down this beast. Everything was possible before the outcome was finalized. At this time, many people were sent flying, looking very miserable. Philip felt sorry for them. After all, they were injured because of them, so Philip signaled Aslan. Aslan nodded and understood Philip’s meaning. “These pills can heal your injuries. Remember, although they're good stuff, don’t be greedy. Take them as our compensation and leave quickly. Stop wasting your time here.” Aslan was just teasing them earlier and had no other intentions. They seemed like nice people, so Aslan did not want to waste time with them. Lance felt that Aslan was humiliating him. “What do you mean? Are you looking down on me?” Lance knocked the pills from Aslan’s hand in a huff. “I don’t need your charity.” He did not care about Aslan’s gift. It would not be anything good. Aslan was surprised by Lance’s rejection. With a hook of his fingers, the pills returned to his hand.
Lance realized the severity of this matter and wanted to run away. At this moment, Philip signaled Aslan to attract the beast’s attention while he attacked its eyeballs. As long as the beast kept its eyes open, its weakness would be exposed. As a monster beast, Aslan’s aura could affect the beast. After sensing Aslan's presence, the lizard beast rushed at Aslan furiously. Philip seized this opportunity to attack the beast with multiple weapons that appeared in his hands. The beast was frightened by this scene and wanted to escape, but it was too late. Philip was one step ahead of it. No matter how the beast resisted, the dagger pierced its eyeball. The beast howled in pain. “Go to hell!” Philip attacked without hesitation, and waves of light pierced through the beast’s eyeballs into its brain. The growing beast was finally dead. Philip was so fast that Lance could hardly keep up even after everything was over. Lance was still running, making him look ridiculous. “He
“You turned down the pill he gave you earlier, so why are you asking now?” Philip smiled helplessly and put the beast into his storage space with a wave of his hand. Lance was dumbfounded by Philip’s actions and felt that his outlook on life had collapsed. “What the hell is this?” He wanted to get the answer from Philip, but Philip ignored him. “Now that we have taken care of the beast, let’s take a look inside. Maybe we can find the cause of the beast's mutation.” Philip reached into his space and took out a lizard’s leg. “You can take this as proof of completing your mission. I believe it'll be of great use to you. Your strength may improve by leaps and bounds if you eat it.” Philip smiled and led Aslan into the depths of the beast forest, leaving the soldiers behind staring at each other. Philip was not a saint. He had offered the pills once and would not do it again. If they wanted the healing pills, they had to buy them. His earlier offer was to compensate them
“Set the pot over the fire. Let’s have a feast with this leg today!” After much deliberation, Lance decided to keep the leg for themselves. He was tricked into being sent here to face the danger anyway. In that case, he would keep the good stuff to himself. “We’ll eat this today. We can express our gratitude when we see the two of them again in the future!” Lance was a grateful person. He knew that he was a little arrogant earlier and vowed to thank the other party if he had the opportunity next time. “As for what happened today, no one is allowed to talk about it. Just say that we killed the beast through our own efforts, and the beast’s body was scavenged by other animals. We don’t know anything else!” Before cooking, Lance reminded everyone, afraid that some of them might let the cat out of the bag. All of them had followed Lance for a long time and knew his meaning. “Don't worry, commander. We’ll watch our words. Those two people are our saviors.” Everyone looked at
Aslan went on high alert and peered around cautiously. “I’ll pick the flower and see what’s going on.” That flower was not a magical item that could be used as a medicinal ingredient. Philip found no description of this flower in his memory at all. Thus, he could not tell what it was. It felt like an extraterrestrial object, magical and weird. “Philip, watch out. I feel like this flower is talking to me. When I look at it, I see a charming woman dancing in front of me, and she keeps beckoning me over!” Aslan frowned and said solemnly. He had noticed the anomaly of this flower. Likewise, Philip discovered the same. Philip approached the flower cautiously and reached out to touch it. The flower trembled, looking a little spooky. He had a strange feeling that the flower was like a delicate woman resisting his touch. “Something’s wrong. Let’s pick it and see what happens!” Philip did not want to hesitate and miss this chance! He took out a shovel and dug out the flower by i
