Aslan wiped the mud off his body in annoyance. The mud was very sticky, and no one could avoid it. Aslan was disgusted and cursed the fish creatures to hell and back. “Philip, I feel something is wrong ahead. Is it an ambush?” Black Rabbit looked at Philip nervously. He felt something was not right. Philip was surprised by Black Rabbit’s keen senses and wondered what was going on. “Just speak your mind. There’s no need to hold back. We’re on the same side,” Philip said. Black Rabbit nodded and pointed up ahead. “I feel that there’s something wrong with that place. I think someone has set up a barrier to trap us.” Although Black Rabbit had no special ability, he had very keen senses. If he sensed something wrong, they should check it out. Rabbit joined the discussion. Although he hated Black Rabbit, he had to admit that he was capable. “Black Rabbit has a great perception of danger that's much stronger than that of ordinary practitioners.” Everyone stopped and pondered
Loony looked at the merfolk with disdain. Before this, he always thought that the merfolk were smart and beautiful creatures, but reality proved that they were stupid. “Sure enough, only birds of a feather can flock together. Only humans can work together,” Loony said in dissatisfaction. He had always been known as a lunatic, so he did not have to watch his words. Aslan stepped forward on behalf of the monster beasts. “You can't say that. You can criticize the merfolk, but don’t get us involved. We’re loyal to Philip.” Moray was angry at their rebuke and wanted to teach Philip a lesson. “You need to decide quickly. We’re about to arrive. Do you want to give up now? That doesn’t make sense. If you’re a man, you need to take action. Don't let me look down on you.” Moray’s tone was condescending, putting on an air of superiority. “Indeed, I don’t dare to take the risk. Why don’t you take the lead?” Philip said with a smile. He did not take the bait because he did not care ab
Moray scowled. He did not expect Philip to be right. It was dangerous ahead. He felt embarrassed by his earlier outburst. “Hehe, even if it’s dangerous, that’s no reason to stop. We should…” Marina was angry at her father’s shameful behavior. She wanted Philip to meet her father and have a good chat, but so many things happened instead. “That’s enough. Stop talking. It’s your mistake this time. They told you about the danger ahead, but you insisted on going there anyway. You’re causing trouble on purpose!” Marina was very angry and went to Philip’s side as if she was going to take his side. Tom looked at this scene with jealousy and resentment. Marina trusted Philip more because of this incident. He had made things worse. Philip ignored their internal conflict. He simply found them annoying. He would not object if they wanted to stop the cooperation. “Philip, I heard that the fish creatures have a treasure that allows them to survive in this harsh environment. Maybe we ca
Moray used to be a rational person, but things were different now. With Tom adding fuel to the fire and coupled with his daughter’s attitude, Moray lost his temper. He could not tolerate Philip's existence anymore. He felt as if Philip was going to snatch Marina away, which annoyed him. Due to his dignity, however, he simply advised Marina not to be so stupid. “How do you know that Philip is the person you know? With demons running rampant, their methods are unpredictable. They could even disguise themselves as elves. What else can stop them?” Tom could not bear it any longer and spoke up. He did not expect that Moray was so bad at convincing his daughter. It would be bad if Marina convinced Moray instead. “What do you mean? Are you saying that Philip has been possessed by a demon? Or is this Philip not the person we know?” Marina’s expression changed slightly. Tom had a certain say in this matter because they returned from Philip’s world together and received help from P
Philip had a good impression of Katie. She was passionate about learning and studied very hard. Even Philip felt inferior to her. Since Katie was doing it to seek revenge for her parents, Philip always taught Katie seriously and never kept anything from her. They spoke in a corner privately, and Tom watched with jealousy. Sure enough, Katie had fallen for Philip instead. The way Katie looked at Philip was the same way she looked at Tom back then. It was the worship and admiration for the strong. Tom was depressed at the thought that he had lost Katie in just a few days. Marina keenly noticed Tom's abnormal mood swings. She was curious and wondered what was wrong with him. “Tom, are you okay? Why do you look so bad? Are you feeling unwell? Or were you scared by the sneak attack just now?” Marina was concerned about her personal guard’s unpleasant look. Unexpectedly, Marina’s concern undermined Tom’s confidence instead. “How could I be scared by those things? Do you really th
Moray glanced at Philip with disdain and anger, blaming Philip for everything. He would not have suffered this humiliation if not for Philip. “No matter what, I’ll take care of you right now. Putting aside whether I’m working with humans or not, you’ll die as long as you can’t defeat me.” Moray put up a tough front, feeling annoyed about this. He was embarrassed because of Philip. He vowed to cut off all ties with Philip later and never let anyone know that they worked with humans. Aslan was annoyed by Moray’s unpleasant words. “What do you mean, old man? You behaved differently when you wanted to use us and changed your attitude after using us. Are you burning bridges now?” Aslan with his hot temper knew that the best way to deal with Moray was to condemn him. Moray scowled, surprised that someone dared to complain about him. “What do you mean? Do you think I'm a pushover? You used us to help you deal with the fish creatures, and you want to cut ties with us right after th
Tom was counting on Philip to help them deal with the fish creatures. He thought that he could sit back and reap the benefits, but things were not as simple as imagined. Philip would not fall for it so easily. Philip glanced at Tom, disappointed by the eagerness in his eyes. He did not expect that the simple and honest young man would show such a side. At this time, Tom glanced at Katie. He wanted to take the opportunity to win Katie over to his side. “Katie, just look at the ugly side of these people. I begged Philip to bring you to this world back then, so I’m obligated to protect you. Philip is up to no good. I want to take responsibility for what I did back then,” Tom said righteously. Tom felt smug about it, but it was quickly replaced by tension and worry. Katie looked at Tom in confusion, thinking that maybe he was a little unhinged. “You didn’t beg Philip to take me in back then. I was the one who begged him to take me away. “If you hadn't fled to our fishing villag
Tom watched this scene smugly. His plan worked. Although he failed to get Katie’s agreement, he managed to sow discord between Marina and Philip. He could proceed with the next step. Marina was very upset now, so he had to seize the opportunity to intervene. Katie was the center of this fight. It was time for a battle to the death. Philip watched from the sidelines. He would only step forward to provide help when Katie needed it. Otherwise, he would simply keep an eye on her. He wanted to take the opportunity to train her as an ace up his sleeve. The fish creatures were fully prepared to fight Philip and the others, but they had no idea that they were so strong. They thought that the humans had ordinary bodies and could not resist their poison. The fish creatures' venom should be lethal for humans, making them unable to resist. However, these humans seemed indestructible. They had no way to deal with them no matter how hard they tried. “What’s up with these people's bodies?
“Since that’s your request, I’ll oblige.” Philip flew up the stage and quickly landed next to the old monk. Everyone was jealous to see Philip forging a connection with the old monk. Many people at the scene recognized Philip and knew who he was. “Look, isn't that Philip? I can’t believe that the old monk is so interested in Philip. It seems that we can’t take Philip lightly.” “I always thought Philip was a loser, but maybe I’m mistaken.” “He’s on very good terms with the Celestial Palace. Why would you think he was a loser?” Everyone discussed this topic with great interest. Carlos was quite close to Philip, so he felt proud to hear those comments. He knew that everyone was just jealous of Philip. The old monk stretched out his hand and invited Philip to go to his room. Philip nodded at his indication. “You look like a newcomer. Sure enough, the younger generation is taking over the world. For someone at your age to reach this level, you’re certainly a force to be
No one had ever seen the old monk, so they did not know what he was like. Philip and his party soon arrived at Zenith, which looked very grand just like a palace. The large arena in the middle was crowded with people. Everyone was looking at the stage, waiting to pay homage to this legendary old monk. Some people had seen the old monk and heard his lecture in the past. They felt that they had benefited from it, so they arrived early this time to grab a good spot. Others had never seen the old monk, but they knew they would benefit from his lecture about practice. Philip and Carlos squeezed into the middle of the crowd and found seats. Philip was very curious about the old monk and could not wait to see him. Soon, the old monk appeared in front of everyone. He looked very impressive. Seeing his attire, Philip felt that this old man was definitely not an ordinary person. His clothes were very expensive, not something anyone could afford. It was not only in reference to the pr
Rabbit was attacked by the spell before he could react. He stood on the spot blankly, wondering what was going on. Rabbit tried to move when he felt that something was wrong with him. He seemed to have lost control of his body and could not move. “You have no say in this matter. Since you left with me, it means that you've agreed to follow me.” The hooded man was calm. He did not think that Rabbit could escape his clutches easily. After all, the piece of yellow paper was not an ordinary item. He had gone to great lengths to get it. He could control the rabbit’s mind and body fearlessly with that piece of yellow paper. Over time, the rabbit would eventually become his puppet. The hooded man was very excited to think that he would have a powerful helper. Rabbit lost his senses and had no idea what happened. Subconsciously, Rabbit wanted to resist, but he could not for some reason. He could only stand and wait for orders. “Hey, bring me a glass of water,” the hooded man said
“I sense a familiar vibe from you. Where are you from?” Rabbit asked curiously. He had a feeling that this man did not belong to this world. He felt familiar. The man stared at Rabbit while thinking about how to take it away. “I have many secrets. Do you want to know more? Come with me, then. I can give you a good life and help you quickly level up. You can become the best rabbit in existence and stand at the top of this world!” Rabbit hopped over and nodded excitedly. He knew that this person was mysterious and weird, so he wanted to find out more. The hooded man was shocked that this rabbit was dumb enough to leave with him. However, he did not reveal his smugness and just held the rabbit in his arms devoutly. He never thought that he could have such a powerful pet. Thinking of this, he decided to do something to make this rabbit his own. This rabbit had developed intelligence, so it would not agree to become his pet so easily. Rabbit was just leaving with him, but being
The hooded man was very interested in Rabbit and wanted to make contact with him to find out more about him. He quickly found Philip’s house and was surprised to find that it was surrounded by a barrier that blocked all his perceptions, which made him conflicted. It was not a place he could enter at will. He felt some energy fluctuations from formations too. If he was not mistaken, entering this place would be dangerous for him. After much deliberation, he turned around and left without staying any longer. His visit here was enough to verify his guess. Since Philip could come up with such a powerful formation and barrier, he was certainly a force to be reckoned with. At the very least, Philip was not someone he could deal with so easily. As for Rabbit, the hooded man was not bothered by him at all. He just wanted to know how Philip subdued such a powerful pet. The hooded man had dealt with many monster beasts in the past but failed to subdue any. He had even suffered badly un
“Philip's strength mostly comes from his very powerful pet rabbit. Although it's a monster beast, it's a force to be reckoned with. It isn't something anyone can deal with,” Hogster said with lingering fear. He could not forget how Rabbit had beaten Alain to a pulp. “Yes, the rabbit is a force to be reckoned with. You'd better not mess with it for no reason. I really wonder where such a powerful monster beast came from.” Alain seemed very steadfast, but he was already having a mental meltdown. However, he did not want to embarrass himself in public, so he gritted his teeth and hung on. The hooded man looked at Alain and sneered inwardly. He took out a pill from his pocket and handed it to him. “Take this or I’m afraid you’ll collapse soon.” He could notice Alain’s condition at a glance and knew he would not last long. “Forget it. I won’t hide it from you. In fact, the rabbit inflicted all these injuries on me. I wouldn’t be in this miserable state if the rabbit weren’t that
Although the strength of the test subject had increased, he was not highly valued at all because his talent was not affected and did not meet the guild’s requirements. “Okay, you may leave now. Your strength has improved, so make sure to practice hard and don’t let us down,” Alain said grandly, sending the other party away. He knew that this person was nothing but a loser. The guild member who was the test subject had no idea how pathetic he was. Instead, he looked at Alain with excitement and gratitude. Hogster swallowed the potion without hesitation. He quickly felt the changes in his body as if he had become very powerful in just a few seconds. Hogster looked at the hooded man in surprise. He never thought that he could become so strong. “Wow, this is amazing!” Hogster was shocked by this unexpected outcome. His lack of self-esteem was quickly replaced with brimming confidence, and he even had the urge to mess with Philip. In his opinion, Philip was nothing special. Now
“Don’t worry, I mean no harm. That thing is quite good.” The silly member took the potion nervously and looked at Alain expectantly. “Sir, I think I’m getting stronger!” The silly guy showed off his strength excitedly. Alain stepped forward and examined the guild member curiously. Sure enough, his strength had increased. Alain found the increase in strength quite incredible. Moreover, he did not find any side effects on the other party, which was the most surprising. This potion was amazing beyond anyone’s imagination! Alain was very excited and wished he could take it too. “I believe you should know the value of this potion. Just win the competition and stop worrying about the rest.” Alain and the hooded man stepped aside to discuss offering the boys and girls. Hogster was taken aback to hear them. The two quickly reached an agreement as they knew how unethical this transaction was. “Father, you actually agreed to his request! Aren't you afraid that it’ll be expose
By taking the potion, a person could increase their overall strength, and there would be no side effects. It was a miracle potion, indeed. Alain was stunned to hear that. He felt that the hooded man was bragging. How could there be such an amazing potion? “Are you serious? It can’t be that simple.” Alain took the potion from the other party and sized it up, wondering if he should trust this thing. “If you don't believe it, you can give it a try. I don’t mind. You have many people under your command anyway. You can choose to use them as a test subject.” The hooded man was quite cold and aloof in both his actions and speech. Alain nervously clenched the potion tightly. “In that case, I’ll give it a try. Let me find someone.” Alain did not fully trust the hooded man’s words. In his opinion, it was better to play it safe. Who knew if anything would happen? He was nervous about giving something like this to his precious son. At this time, a guild member who was not highly valu
