The guild leaders made small talk, hoping that their guild members would perform well. Glaze Tower had always existed in legends. As it only opened every thousand years, it was one of the most valuable and powerful training grounds on this continent. Glaze Tower contained many ferocious beasts with both powerful strength and ability. Among them was a Dream Eater Beast that was best at creating illusions. This beast would be asleep most of the time during the thousand years. It was not difficult to kill this beast, but the problem lay with the illusions it created. Even though the beast was immersed in its dreams, it could trap someone in its illusion and kill them. It was rumored that only five such beasts existed on this continent. Various mighty beings joined forces and finally captured one beast after sacrificing countless people. This ferocious beast was imprisoned in Glaze Tower. Therefore, although Glaze Tower was a place full of opportunities, it was full of various da
The challenge in Glaze Tower was unlike any other secret realm. One might die if they forced their way inside and challenged their limits. However, that risk was worth taking considering the rewards they might get after successfully passing the attempt. They might suffer some injuries at the beginning of the challenge, but the higher they went, the more likely they might find restrictions on their souls. If the challengers did not withdraw from the battle in time, they might suffer unprecedented damage to their souls to the point of no recovery. By then, not even the most powerful alchemist in the whole continent could help. Making choices was the biggest test of all. Most of the participants were young and promising elite guild members, prized assets of the guilds. It would be a huge blow to the guilds if anything happened to them. For example, the Pill Guild was on the brink of collapse. Most of their members were either killed or injured, so the guild was in bad shape. C
At this time, many people were rushing to Imperial City for this so-called opportunity too. The leaders of the major guilds did not attend in person but sent their powerful members instead. “You have to seize this opportunity and challenge your limits at all costs!” “You’ll make a name for yourself if you can reach the fifth floor or above, and the guild will become very powerful too!” “You have to display all your talents and don’t let us down!” The same conversation happened in different guilds. After a thousand years had passed, the previous outstanding members had long been replaced by a new batch. This was the best time for the major guilds to show their muscles. Meanwhile, Rick took this opportunity to reap many resources from the Pill Guild. Although the guild had suffered some losses, the guild leader had many treasures on hand. Rick felt very triumphant after getting these treasures. “That guy is such a fool for believing me so easily, but in that case, I can
Seeing this, Rick had a sudden flash of inspiration. “I’m a member of the guild. Do you know the Pill Guild?” Rick began to brag about his identity. The guards were less hostile after hearing that. They frowned at Rick and said, “You have to leave anyway. Your guild should provide you with a place to live. Don’t stay here.” Rick smiled at their amicable reaction. He knew what he should do to solve this problem. “I have my reasons for staying here, and I don’t take up much space. I hope you can take it easy on me.” At this point, Rick took out a pill and an energy stone, handing them to the captain of the imperial guards. “As a token of my appreciation, these are for you.” The imperial guards smiled at Rick’s gesture. This amount of money was enough to last them for a while. “In that case, you may stay. Don’t cause any trouble or we’ll take you away.” After saying this, they smiled and left. However, Rick stopped them. “I need your help with something else!” Rick h
“Let’s stay here for the time being. I believe we can pass the challenge with our abilities, but there are risks involved, after all. I just want everyone to try their best.” These members were Philip’s precious students, so he was unwilling to see anything happen to them. Everyone nodded at Philip’s remarks. There should be no problem with their strength. “Don't worry, Philip. We’ll definitely do our best. This challenge is not difficult for us. We can get it done as long as we put some effort into it.” “That’s right, we can also see how strong the others are. Are they really as weak as we think?” Everyone spoke cheerfully, clearly looking down on the guild members of this continent. They were more or less in awe of these unfamiliar people when they first arrived, but after witnessing their so-called powerful strength, they quickly changed their minds. At this time, someone knocked on Philip's inn door. Philip asked someone to open the door, curious to see what was going
“There’s no way you can continue staying here if you refuse to pay up. Not only can we not guarantee your safety, but we’ll also take you away for questioning according to the rules. We know time is of the essence for practitioners like you.” The threat in the other party’s words was clear. This incident would not be over until Philip gave them something. At this time, Lyle came to Philip's side and whispered in his ear, “Philip, this sneaky guy is clearly out for money. We can’t give in to him.” Aslan was annoyed. He hated such bullies the most. He would have kicked the imperial guards out if Philip had not stopped him. “Since there are so many of you, just pay a fee per head. I believe it shouldn't be a problem for you. After all, your guild looks quite large.” The captain signaled a number with his hand, clearly asking Philip to hand over the money quickly. Philip nodded and smiled brightly. “Of course, that's no problem. Aslan, it's your turn to take the stage. You sh
“Since you want to mess with us, don’t blame us for taking action. Guys, take them away. Let’s show them how powerful the imperial guards can be.” With that command, everyone sprang into action. They were excited and knew exactly what to do. Before anyone could attack Philip, Aslan made his move. Aslan hit the guards on the head with the brick and quickly knocked them unconscious. Aslan smiled brightly at this scene. He knew that no one could resist his brick attack. “What’s so great about your low-end energy weapons? You think too highly of yourselves.” Philip and the rest looked down on low-end energy weapons and could not bring themselves to use one. In the blink of an eye, the guards suffered a good beating until only the captain was left standing. “You guys are so bold. Do you know who we are? We're the imperial guards, not people losers like you can mess with. If you dare to lay a finger on us, you’ll know how difficult your life will be from now on.” After saying
The imperial guards finally had some free time and knew it was time to mess with Philip. “Philip has been taking it easy for a while. It's time for us to deal with him.” The captain of the imperial guards scowled, wishing he could rip Philip into pieces. He learned about Philip after some investigation. It turned out that this guy was very wealthy, his members were all outstanding, and the pills they made were simply out of this world. The Razer Guild could be considered the best in all aspects. After confirming Philip's financials and assets, the captain was more upset. Philip could totally give them some crumbs, if not the whole pie, but he simply refused. “I think Rick is more pleasing to the eye, unlike this oblivious guy in front of us. We need to make things difficult for him and stop him from entering our territory at all costs!” Everyone was planning how to deal with Philip. After all, Glaze Tower was now under the imperial guards' charge, so it would be easy to contr
Anyone with any ideas could only shake their heads helplessly after hearing Philip’s remarks. At the same time, they were amazed by the ring’s function. “Wow, that’s great. The person who made this thing must be a genius!” Cameron clapped his hands excitedly. Of course, he was worried that someone would steal his treasure. After all, owning a treasure was a sin in itself. It was inevitable for others to covet his treasure. It would be bad if they attacked him because of greed. With Philip’s explanation, his trouble would be reduced. “That sounds amazing.” The patriarch of the Lamy family seemed dissatisfied. He had some crooked thoughts too. With their family’s financial resources, they could not buy so many rings, so he planned to steal the other two as well. He was not that stupid to steal from Philip, so he could only set his sights on the other major families. Everyone wanted the rings anyway. As long as he refused to admit it, no one would know that he was guilty.
It was too much to use half of the family's assets and properties in exchange for one storage space. “Are you sure about this? Do you know how much that would cost?” “The Lamy family must be crazy to go all out for this treasure!” Everyone complained helplessly. They might be in trouble if the Lamy family insisted on doing it this way. “I know you guys can’t afford it, so stop wasting your time. The Lamy family has made an offer. If you can up the price, go ahead. Don’t stop us from buying that treasure!” the patriarch of the Lamy family said smugly. He felt that his offer was high enough and no one could afford it, so this thing would definitely belong to him. Even Ronan was surprised by this development. He had heard of the Lamy family before. Ronan had worked for the Lamy family before, but their attitude toward him was the same as that of other families—indifferent and disdainful. Therefore, Ronan had the same bad impression about everyone. The Lamy family was not
Rather than saying that they were unwilling to believe it, it was more likely that they did not dare to believe it. Ronan calmly put the ring aside. “I'm wearing a ring that looks better than the ones you're about to get. Watch this.” After saying that, Ronan demonstrated to everyone what a real storage space could do. Anything he took in his hand vanished and appeared at will, which looked simply amazing. Everyone was jealous at this scene. They stared at Ronan’s hands nervously, trying to see if he was performing a magic trick or showing off the storage ring. After Ronan's many demonstrations, they finally confirmed that Ronan was not lying. Everything was true. Everyone exclaimed in amazement. “Wow, I can’t believe that I really saw a storage space in action!” “It’s amazing!” “I have to get hold of one!” Although Sadie had been dealt a heavy blow, she hid in a corner and observed the situation instead of leaving. She wanted to see how things would develop. When S
“Heh, look at those crazy family patriarchs. They can't wait to suck up to Ronan! Do you think they’ll question the Claude family after hearing about the storage space? They’ll only turn up in person to find out about it! “With so many of them putting pressure on us, what do you think we can do? Now, we may not even get that amazing storage space because there are too many people competing with us!” Cameron was furious and almost passed out in anger because of this stupid woman. Sadie scowled at the yard in disbelief as she realized that the crowd causing the commotion was the patriarchs of the other major families. She thought that they were servants sent by the families, but everything was different from what she imagined. “How did this happen? I planned everything perfectly. We just need to throw the wool over their eyes. Things shouldn't have turned out like this!” Sadie almost had a mental breakdown at this bad news. “No way. This is impossible…” Seeing the family
“Forget it. I won't talk to you anymore. I want to claim the credit for what I’ve done!” Sadie quickly turned and left. The butler wanted to stop her, but she vanished before he could say anything. In the end, he remained silent. “The plan really backfired on her. Unfortunately, she can only blame it on her bad luck.” The butler knew the situation the family was facing now. Their residence would probably be turned upside down. The Claude family could have owned a storage space, but everything was ruined now. Not only would they fail to get one, but others would also humiliate them! Sadie quickly arrived at the yard and rolled her eyes at the crowd. “Dad, over here!” Sadie beckoned her father excitedly as if she had great news for him. Cameron was very anxious at this point and wished he could find a solution. When Sadie called him, he thought his solution had appeared. He rushed over and looked at Sadie curiously. “What’s up? Is there any good news?” He was very excited
Everyone was excited to hear that Ronan had those legendary items. It was great. “Our family has to get one!” The patriarch of the Lamy family was the most excited. The members of this family had always been strong-headed and were determined to get it. The other families were unhappy to hear that. They were not that bad either, so they were annoyed by that high-handed remark. “All the major families are powerful in our own rights. I think there’s no need to conclude so quickly.” “I agree. I’m afraid you’ll hide and cry if you fail to get one. That'll be embarrassing.” “Even the major families are not confident about this. Who do you think you are to get it?” Everyone targeted the swell-headed Lamy family even though they were indeed big and powerful enough to steal the treasure from them. The Claude family was the most excited yet regretful. Instead of feeling happy that the families were bickering with each other, they were worried. Although the families were fighting
Besides, Philip mentioned that he would help Ronan make a name for himself. The storage rings that Philip provided were quite meager, with only 30 to 70 cubic feet of storage space each. However, that did not stop Ronan from admiring Philip. He knew that Philip had various treasures, but he was willing to share them with Ronan, which was too generous for words. To prevent Ronan from getting the short end of the stick, Philip also provided some common things for doing business. Due to this, Ronan wanted to serve Philip. In their world, the best way to express gratitude was to acknowledge the other party as their master. It was not only to seize the opportunity but also to find a good roof over their head. Thinking of this, Ronan did not dare to call Philip his brother anymore. Ronan decided to approach Philip at night and find a way to acknowledge him as his master so that he could serve Philip wholeheartedly. Philip had no idea about Ronan’s thoughts. He was still think
Everything Rabbit owned, including the storage space and various treasures, was given by Philip. So, Rabbit could come up with some amazing things for these people to please him. Rabbit felt very proud of this accomplishment. “Ahem, everyone, follow me! I know you’re eager to see Philip, but you have to follow the rules. Don't be as rude as the Claude family!” Rabbit said calmly. He was very unhappy with the Claude family. Hearing that, members of the Claude family were livid. They were shocked by Rabbit's words. He was deliberately putting them down! Those remarks were likely to affect their status among the major families. That off-handed tone might cause other major families to reject them. “I’m surprised that this family would be so arrogant and disrespect you!” “How could they treat that precious storage space so carelessly? I say, those people are too bold to disregard such a valuable treasure!” “This family is stupid and arrogant. Let's ignore them to avoid any ass
However, Cameron and his people were arrogant enough to lock Philip up. How dare they?! “Cameron, you went too far!” “I never knew that the Claude family were such people. I really misjudged you before. You’re really too much for treating such an amazing person that way.” Everyone pretended to be angry and kept speaking up for Philip, trying to please Rabbit and indirectly please Philip. Cameron was startled by Rabbit’s words, which easily landed him in trouble. “No, that's not exactly the case. I didn't lock Philip up but gave him a place to stay. How would I dare to lock up such a powerful person? You really think too highly of me.” However, Cameron’s explanation was useless. Everyone believed that Cameron locked Philip up on purpose, so they wanted to get him into trouble. Whether Cameron locked Philip up or treated Philip as a valuable guest, they wanted to ruin Cameron’s reputation. Once they got rid of Cameron, they could focus on pleasing Philip. “You must be
