“More importantly, I’m the only one who can use this flute. No one else can use it even if they get it.” Philip was happy to hear that. He did not expect Foxy to play such a role. He thought that Foxy could only control some monster beasts in the beast forest, but she could even control the snakes on East Hill Island. “I can get the normal snakes to avoid us, but I'm afraid I can't control the legendary ten-thousand-year-old snake monster,” Foxy frowned worriedly. Based on Mason’s description, this snake monster should be very powerful. As a fledgling, Foxy could hardly do anything to such an ancient beast. Seeing Foxy and Philip whispering in the corner, Yule grew increasingly nervous. He had a feeling that something was wrong. The moment he landed on East Hill Island, his joy had been overwhelmed by fear. Coupled with Mason's explanation, he recalled how dangerous this place was. With worry on his face, Yule waited for Philip to lead the way. After talking to Foxy, Phil
Snakes usually kept a low profile. As long as humans did not mess with them, they would stay in their territory. To lure the snakes out, Mason spent a fortune to buy this powder just to make life difficult for Philip. “When the time comes, I’ll use the antidote to cure Yule and his men, then wait for Philip’s people to beg me.” He planned to create conflict between them and profit from it. Mason neither belonged to Yule nor Philip’s party, so he had to find a way to gain benefits for himself. Philip noticed his sneaky moves but did not take him seriously. He simply thought that Mason was being stupid. Although the smell of the powder was not strong, Philip could tell what it was at a glance with his strength. “Some snakes will appear very soon. I’ll leave it to you to deal with them,” Philip grinned brightly as he ordered. Philip knew that Mason was no match for them. Soon, they entered the depths of East Hill Island where thick fog obscured everyone’s vision. Their sen
Yule scowled, shocked to hear that he was about to encounter snakes. “Based on my experience, there are many beasts around. Everyone needs to watch out. These are powerful snakes, not ordinary ones.” Seeing everyone’s panic, Foxy fanned the flames. It was quite fun to fool them. Since Foxy’s identity had been exposed, she had nothing to fear, so she told them everything she knew. Hearing her remark, everyone went on high alert. No one wanted to die under a snake’s fangs. When they heard that a large horde of beasts was approaching them, everyone got ready for battle. At this moment, Mason sprinkled some snake repellent on himself so that the snakes would stay away from him. His plan was simple. He would trick these guys into buying his snake repellent at a high price. This powder was very expensive, so he could not afford to buy much. “There! I can see some snake tails next to me!” a man next to Yule shouted as if he found traces of the beasts. “We need to run! The snakes
“I hate dealing with snakes the most. Snakes are insidious and cunning, and they always like to lurk in the dark.” As a member of the beast family, Foxy was appalled by snakes. Therefore, Foxy would not stop these people from killing snakes. “What are you waiting for? Hurry up and take action. I’ve given you the location. Do you expect me to do the work too?” Hearing that, Philip’s men sprang into action while Yule’s men were still in a daze. They looked around in fear, at a loss for what to do. Seeing their blank expressions, Yule frowned and scolded them. It was embarrassing to bring such stupid men with him. Since Foxy had revealed the snakes’ location, it should be easy to find them. Although their vision was affected, they could still fight. Moreover, they could still see something at a very close distance. Hence, Yule was furious at their slow reaction. “Damn it, why did I bring you losers out? Even a donkey on the street is smarter than you!” Yule felt very embarrass
Philip gave Yule the item Mason had been longing for. Mason could never forgive Philip, or his people, for that. “What does it have to do with you? If you have time, go and deal with the snakes. Stop wasting my time.” Mason turned around and left, unwilling to speak to Lyle anymore. Seeing Mason ignoring him, Lyle shook his head helplessly and turned to leave. “Since you're choosing to ignore me, forget it. It’s easy for me to deal with the snakes anyway,” Lyle said on purpose to provoke Mason. Mason sneered at Lyle’s arrogance. He knew that Lyle would die soon. “Hehe, since you’re so great, you need to watch out. Who knows how many snakes there are? If the number is too big for you to handle, it’ll be the end of you,” Mason mocked coldly and left. Lyle returned to Philip, smiling with satisfaction. Now that the thing was in his hand, there was no time to lose. “Hehe, it’s done, Philip. That guy thinks too highly of himself, talking down to me like that,” Lyle said mockin
The snakes knew they were stronger than these stupid humans who dared to trespass on their territory. Therefore, the snakes were angry and flicked their tongues out at Philip and the others as if trying to intimidate them. Philip waved at Yule indifferently. “Buddy, the snakes have become a force to be reckoned with. They’re pretty pissed off by our actions.” Philip pointed to a snake that kept flicking its tongue out at him and shrugged helplessly. Anyone could tell that the snake was very powerful and had a bad impression of these humans who appeared out of nowhere. “Everyone, get ready to fight the snakes. We can only enter the safe zone after taking care of them.” Philip ordered his men to fight but was puzzled at the same time. Although East Hill Island did have a large number of beasts, this was over the top. At any rate, Yule’s people were well-trained experts. Although their performance had been lacking, it did not affect their professionalism. Seeing that victo
Mason was at a loss for what to do. Mason’s actions aroused Philip's and Yule’s curiosity. They wondered what was going on with this guy. “What are you doing? Did you lose something? Or is your idea of showing us making us wait for you for no reason?” Mason scowled but quickly recalled that Yule’s things had gone missing too. Mason rushed through the crowd and came to Lyle, questioning him solemnly. “Tell me the truth. Did you steal the things from my bag? Return my things to me at once!” Mason was furious when he realized that someone had stolen his treasures. It would not matter if Lyle stole some insignificant things, but the powder was meant to save his life on East Hill Island. He could not lose it for no reason. Lyle rolled his eyes at Mason’s actions as if he thought Mason was unhinged. “What are you talking about? I thought you were very powerful, but you’re nothing but a loser. “If you’re unwilling to fight on the battlefield, stop goofing around here. Our time i
Thinking of the various upcoming dangers they would face, Mason finally decided to cede to Yule after some deliberation. While Yule took a break from the fight, Mason pulled him aside. “I want to make a deal with you. If you’re willing to protect my safety, I’ll agree to one of your requests.” Yule sneered inwardly at Mason’s humble and flattering attitude. He never thought this guy would give in to save himself. Mason always thought highly of himself, but to survive in a dangerous place like East Hill Island, he was willing to abandon his so-called dignity and ask for help. “Hehe, since you mentioned it, I won’t refuse. Don’t worry, you can stay with my team. We’re comrades, after all!” Yule’s thinking was very simple. Although Mason could not hold a candle to Philip, he was a weaponsmith, after all. Maybe he could play a role at a critical moment. Thinking of this, Yule reached a deal with Mason. He did not want to miss such a good opportunity for no reason. If he a
In the end, Elio made the same promise. “I can give it to you, but you have to promise me that you’ll work with me. Our cooperation will begin once I hand it to you.” Elio was expectant, hoping that Philip would agree to it without hesitation. After all, he was the first person to approach Philip about cooperation. Philip nodded at Elio’s reaction. It was so easy to rip a treasure from someone's hands with just a few words. Although Philip thought Elio was a good person, he did not feel guilty at all. After all, they had no use for this thing. They might as well let him use it. Philip quickly reached an agreement with Elio, similar to the one he made with Tamworth. He wanted to see who could give him the best terms. The True God's Hammer was nothing more than scrap metal to these people, but it was almost a divine weapon to people with human genes. Philip became very interested in this so-called true god. He wanted to know the people who came up with this thing. After t
Elio frowned in deep contemplation. “What is this True God's Hammer? It should be quite valuable if he’s willing to use it as an exchange with me. If the price is good, I can consider this deal.” Although Elio looked like a simple and honest old man, Philip had to take his own interests as the standard. “The True God's Hammer is a legendary weapon. It was said that only people who have reached the level of a true god have the right to touch this weapon! “Owning the True God's Hammer is equivalent to gaining the power of judgment. The True God's Hammer can pull someone into a separate judgment site in the air, and no one can enter this site without permission. It’s very mysterious!” Philip was stunned by Elio's description of the True God’s Hammer. He had never dreamed that such a weapon would exist. The person who made this weapon was very creative, indeed. “Since it sounds so amazing, why don’t you want it for yourself instead of trading it? Isn’t that a bigger loss?” Phil
Sure enough, the man scowled as if surprised by that promise. “I can’t believe that the true god thinks so highly of him, even offering him the legendary treasure. In that case, I have to get this deal!" Philip was surprised to hear the other party's mumbling. The true god’s treasure was actually real. “Indeed, he’s the true god’s favorite subordinate, but you need to keep in mind that he might fall out of favor one day. “If he can get you the True God’s Hammer, I can promise you something else. As long as you work with me, I’ll find something that will satisfy you,” the man said earnestly as if he really believed it. Philip was quite interested in this so-called True God’s Hammer. “In that case, go ahead and get it for me. He hasn't agreed to give it to me, so I’ll work with the person who can fulfill their promise first. That should be fair enough. I’m simply doing this for money.” The other party was happy to hear that. Philip had spoken the words in his mind. “Not b
While Philip chatted with Elio, some people kept an eye on them. Not all the appraisers had good intentions. They knew that Elio would definitely find a way to contact the provider of the pills and weapons. They wanted to get a piece of the pie, so they paid attention to Elio's every move, trying to take the opportunity to reach out to Philip. By putting these things up for auction, the other party either did not know their value or did not care at all. Anyway, they wanted to talk to Philip and trick him into giving the things to them with money if possible. Philip and Elio were chatting happily when someone knocked on the door. A man pushed the door open in a panic. “Mr. Wind, the true god is looking for you urgently. He wants to see you right away.” The other party seemed anxious and reluctant to convey the news. Hearing that, Elio seemed conflicted. He was having a good chat with Philip and did not want to see the true god. As a person in his position, however, he coul
“Since you seem quite sincere about it, I don’t mind answering your question. “I made these pills and weapons myself. We're not beast men but soft-eared people because of our soft ears. We have an extraordinary talent for making pills and weapons because we have human genes.” Philip made up a story at random. He had no idea what species this world had. Since he had a pair of very soft ears, he called himself a soft-eared person. Elio was taken aback by the name and frowned in confusion, baffled by this situation. However, he quickly came to terms with it. No matter what race Philip belonged to, he finally knew some secrets. “Great, I’m surprised to hear that you made these things. In that case, let’s have a good chat about business. Maybe we can achieve long-term win-win cooperation.” Elio was very excited. Since the other party had been staying in the mountains over the years, they had to value wealth and money very much. It would be great if he could use money to get th
Another guest noticed Philip’s confusion and kindly explained, “It’s time for a break, or rather, time to prepare more money. Everything costs a lot of money here. Didn’t you see how many crystal stones that thing costs?” After hearing the other party's detailed explanation, Philip finally understood what was going on. The auction house was quite considerate. Worried that the guests would not have enough money to bid for the subsequent items, they chose to take a break. Philip felt a little annoyed. He thought he could quickly explore this world after the auction. This development was out of his expectations. Before Philip and the others could leave for a walk, an old man appeared in front of Philip, smiling brightly as if he wanted to have a good chat with Philip. “Young man, let’s have a chat. I know you put the pills up for sale. Don’t worry, I mean no harm. I just want to discuss a deal with you.” The other party's attitude was good, and he did not look like a bad guy.
No one thought highly of the stone but felt exasperated instead. “The function of the stone is nothing more than ripping off some money, just like everything else. I believe the lapdogs are looking forward to it.” Aslan only thought it was a complete waste of money and could not see anything special about it. Philip shook his head. He felt that this stone contained a special power. Moreover, Rabbit was fidgeting in his arms as if it wanted to get this thing. “No matter what, we have to buy that thing. We won’t make a loss either way.” Philip had many spirit mines, so buying it posed no problem. He could easily wipe the place clean if he wanted to. Besides, he had put some valuable things up for auction as a guarantee. He was sure he could get some good things in exchange. Philip quickly bought the stone. The audience was not interested in it, so Philip won it with one bid. At this time, an employee of the auction house took out Philip’s pills from the pile of auction it
Everyone examined Beck and found no problem. The result could not be faked. There was no way Beck was making things up about the pill. Besides, no one knew who provided the pill, so a cover-up was not possible. Therefore, the pill was genuine with no problem with it. The effects of Philip’s pills were the same as described, so they only tested one pill. They knew how precious these pills were. “Let the host promote these items. The highlight of our auction tonight will be the pills.” Beck immediately decided. With his experience and foresight, he knew the sensation this would cause. Everyone quietly waited for the auction to start. Suddenly, the beautiful auctioneer walked out and looked at everyone in disbelief. “I have good news for everyone. This time, we've received some very powerful weapons and medicines to heal our bodies, so we’ll be adding some items to the auction tonight.” Despite the announcement, they did not clearly state what they would add. They planned
Soon, the higher-ups at the auction house knew about the weapon, and everyone was very excited. Everyone wanted to take it for themselves. It would be great if they owned such a weapon. It was not only an honor to have the same weapon as the true god but also a symbol of status. Thinking of this, the higher-ups were eager to attend the auction. The appraisal had just begun, and the other items had not been appraised yet. “By the way, stop dwelling on that item and look at other things instead. What if he has other good things on hand? We would've discovered a hidden talent this time.” Elio calmly picked up Philip’s pill and studied it. “Isn’t this the favorite plaything of humans? I've heard it's called a pill, but I’ve never seen one in circulation. Ever since humans were banned, I’ve never heard anything more about it.” Everyone was quite knowledgeable and could tell its origin. “I don’t think it can hold a candle to our potions. Humans have never promoted pills, so t
