Philip nodded, patted Fabio on his shoulder, and said, “Well done. I’ll ask my wife to give you a raise.” Wynn frowned when she heard this. She could hardly wait to trample Philip under the soles of her feet! They were in the company. How could Philip not pay any attention to their image! “Please rest assured, Brother Clarke. All members of the security team will wait for your instructions.” Fabio was full of joy when he heard that he would be getting a raise. He was bursting with energy. “Just guard the door and don’t allow anyone to enter without my permission!” “Yes! Don’t worry, Brother Clarke, we promise to complete the task!” Fabio puffed his chest out, performed a standard salute, then turned his head to say to the staff next to him, “Did you hear what Brother Clarke said? Send 20 men over here quickly and block this floor completely. No one is allowed to enter!” As soon as the team member heard it, he also responded with a salute and hurried away. Philip stood
“Also, before recruiting them into the company, I investigated their backgrounds and there was no problem.” Philip was silent as he looked at the two guys on the ground. He asked, “How are they usually like? Do they interact with other people? Are there any attendance records?” Wynn glanced at Vulture who lay in a pool of blood. Fortunately, the window was open and fresh air could come in. Otherwise, standing in this utility room would be quite scary. “The two of them didn’t really talk much. Their personalities were not bad, but they’re both scientific researchers. As such, their communication skills are quite average. They were mostly focused on research. Generally speaking, the people who were in contact with them are the workers in the laboratory. Access records should be available and can be checked later.” Wynn was right. The people they usually came into contact with were colleagues in the research room, and they did not interact with other colleagues in the company. The
Wynn trembled and suddenly felt a chill running down her back. The security system in the research room was built by a foreign team. It was the most advanced security system in the world, but even so, it was absolutely insignificant in front of these people! “You said they can disguise their faces?” Wynn then recalled the keywords in Philip’s explanation, and a cold sweat drenched her back again. “Well, if my guess is correct.” A flash of chill appeared in Philip’s eyes. He walked up to North Wolf stoically, reached out his hand, and fumbled for a while on his cheek. Then, he pulled the skin on his face and ripped it! Hiss! Wynn went pale with fright. She covered her small mouth, her eyes full of panic! Philip was carrying a human face in his hands! That scene was simply too mortifying and was just like a plot in a TV drama. Wynn was so scared that she quickly closed her eyes, her body shaking like a leaf! Even if she was a little braver than ordinary people, she wo
Philip guessed Vulture’s thoughts and sneered, “You want to know what happened to your companion? Too bad, he’s dead.” How was that possible? When Philip said this, Vulture was full of disbelief. His body suddenly stiffened! He twisted his head and saw North Wolf lying in a pool of blood! Moreover, his true face was revealed! A trace of panic flashed across Vulture’s face. He hurriedly touched his cheek, then sat on the ground like a deflated balloon. He was laughing miserably. The human skin technology in the organization was so advanced. This technology alone could be sold at sky-high prices in domestic and foreign markets, and ordinary people could not discover it! However, the man in front of him had obviously discovered their secret! At this time, Vulture had no more desire to resist. He recalled the terrifying skills of the other party. Only people who had undergone special training would possess such skills! There was such a formidable person in little Beacon!
Juan sneered and continued with a frown, “Philip Clarke isn’t as simple as the young master of Clarke Group in Capital City! Although his family is now bankrupt, he isn’t! “Take a closer look! He has invested ten million in Gopher Delivery Services! “And this. He even has shares and invested in Apex Group, the company of the richest man in our city, George Thomas. “Wynnie, I found this out. Philip lied to you. He always had money, but he just refuses to spend it on you and Mila. He’s up to no good!” Juan kept telling her about the information he found, and Wynn frowned as she looked through the information. Philip had lied to her indeed. Not only had he bought Gopher Delivery Services, but he also invested in Apex Group. This happened many months ago. In other words, Philip had been deceiving her since then. Wynn was rattled and did not know what to say. She threw the materials down and forced out a smile. “Juan, I know all of this. Philip told me before. It’s nothing.”
“You already mentioned this just now.” Philip’s expression gradually cooled down as he said, “If you continue telling me unnecessary things, I don’t mind making you end up like your companion!”Vulture was not a death warrior. Killer organizations were unlike gangster societies that put loyalty above everything else. In their eyes, only money and missions prevailed! Their loyalty toward the organization was the lowest because they lived on the tip of a knife every day. Therefore, staying alive was the most important to them. “Are there only the two of you in this mission? Is there a third person?” Philip asked. “There are only two of us. We were confident that our plan was foolproof,” Vulture said earnestly. “Do you know who’s behind the scenes? Who’s your employer?” “The Beauty Killers hired us. We were also quite bewildered at first. The Beauty Killers are also a killer organization, but they hired us.” The Beauty Killers? Margot Pearson?! Two balls of flames burned
Philip came to Wynn’s office. After experiencing the incident in the morning, Wynn was not affected at all. She still displayed the persona of a Snow Queen, but from Philip’s perspective, he was keenly aware of a difference in her. Wynn’s eyes looked a bit confused and absent, and she was also unable to concentrate whether she was looking at documents or reports. Sometimes, her eyes would even linger on a page without moving. This was unlike Wynn. Obviously, she was restless. Philip sat across from her and noticed her expression clearly. He said, “Are you still thinking about what happened this morning?” Wynn shook her head in firm denial. “Stop pretending. I can tell.” Philip suddenly felt that she was a little cute. She was obviously very upset but still pretended to be calm. Why was she being so hard on herself? Wynn was not Philip, so she would naturally take some time to digest everything. “You won’t be used to it at first. That’s human nature. But you’ll get u
Wynn said with a frown, “There are hundreds of employees in Beacon Group. If we start an investigation now, it’s going to take a long time. It’s not going to be something that can be done in half a day.” “You don’t have to worry about this. With me around, everything will be resolved. You can just continue working as usual,” Philip said. “And then?” “And then, I’ll just…” As he said that, Philip got up and walked to Wynn’s side. Leaning his whole body over to her, his cheeks almost pressed against Wynn’s ear! “You… What are you doing?” Wynn had no idea what Philip was doing and thought he was going to… They were in the company, but her husband was being so bold. How embarrassing! “This is a secret operation. Of course, I have to get closer. What if the wall has ears? It’ll be exposed then,” Philip said earnestly. “This…” Wynn blushed furiously. She had misunderstood Philip and became more bashful because of that. Philip’s mouth went very close to Wynn’s ears. Th
Sure enough, the pill was nothing special. Apart from appearing quite tasty, the pill had no other effect. It was considered a useless item. “Humans are quite good at making pills. It’d be great if I had that ability too,” Akash said eagerly. He had studied this topic with others before, but they concluded that no other race had the talent to make pills apart from humans. Philip continued chatting with Akash, all the time wondering who he was. He could easily tell whether the other person's face was real or fake. This person did not disguise himself. His face was real. “Philip, I sense something wrong,” Lyle muttered under his breath. He sensed a strange vibe. A strong fishy smell was coming from a distance. Philip immediately recognized the source of the fishy smell. Who else could it be but the ugly elves? Abele was heading to the city with her troops. They knew that attacking these people was a matter of life and death. “We need to watch out. Don’t give them a chance
At this time, Akash ran over as if he were shocked to hear that sound. “Did you hear a deafening sound just now? I felt uncomfortable all over after that as if something was staring at me!” Akash said in a panic. He was now very jittery and afraid of everything. “Don’t worry, it’s probably an explosion somewhere,” Philip said. Akash was startled as if he could not understand Philip’s meaning. “Explosion? Is it a demon? That’d be very bad!” Akash looked around anxiously, feeling nothing else but panic. “Anyway, this is strange. No one knows what’s happening, so let’s just take it one step at a time. If a demon appears, we have no choice but to face it.” Philip waved his hand, not interested in this topic. They would have to face it, come hell or high water. Akash nodded and sat drinking his cup of tea with a bad premonition lingering in his heart. “Let’s hope you’re right.” Philip sat down and felt that something was wrong with Akash’s reaction. He probably knew something
The captured elves would suffer various hardships and become the humans' pitiful plaything. To prevent it from happening again, Akash forbade his people from stepping into the outside world. Therefore, it was ironic for him to summon his people here. “Find a room and have a good rest while you wait for your people to arrive.” Philip pointed to one of the empty rooms. Akash was exhausted after a long journey. Even though he had drunk a pot of tea, his mental state was not very good. He would collapse very soon without a good rest. Akash nodded. He did not refuse Philip's kindness because he knew he could not hold on much longer. He felt very unhappy at the thought of the upcoming battle.… At this time, the place responsible for imprisoning humans was getting restless as if the barriers were weakening. “Comrades, keep it up. I can feel the barriers weakening. We can leave soon!” A man shouted, and his words motivated everyone. Everyone was excited and worked harder to bre
“That’s great. I knew that our sacred tree would never lie to me. Only you’d dare to help me in this situation.” Akash was moved to tears by Philip’s words. He never dreamed that Philip was willing to help him. “I’ll try to contact the other elf warriors and see if I can summon them. Our combat effectiveness will improve significantly with their help.” Akash went to a corner to contact the elf warriors using a special method. They would sense it if they were still alive. However, he forgot an important thing. Abele was once a member of the family and knew about it too. She could feel the call the same as other warriors. As Akash summoned the warriors, Abele smiled wickedly. She did not expect Akash to summon his people so soon. “This took no effort at all. I was thinking if I should use my bloodline to search for his trace, but he turned up right at my doorstep. How convenient.” Abele found Akash’s location but was puzzled by his choice. “Is he crazy? Why is he in the h
“I have a natural aversion toward demons, so I felt very uncomfortable when I saw Abele, but everyone was in a hurry to leave at that time, so I didn't say anything. Abele probably colluded with the demons to get rid of Akash and his people, so Akash wants to seek help from us.” Everyone nodded at Katie’s analysis and thought she had a point. “Anyway, we’ll find out after a short wait. I’m sure he’ll get here very soon. We can figure out the details if he needs our help.” Philip distributed the precious elf water while calmly waiting for Akash’s arrival. He knew that he owed the elves a favor. Philip was not guilty about taking Akash’s elf water, but he felt embarrassed about Rabbit tricking the elf tree away from the elves. With the elf tree, Philip was not short of elf water. With the help of his pills, the elf tree would recover soon, so the yield would be much higher. Philip felt conflicted at the thought of Akash’s earnest behavior and decided to help if he could after
As long as Abele had full control over the elf tree, others would have no choice but to believe her identity no matter how ugly or deformed she looked. Now that the elf tree was missing, however, they could not find the elves’ treasure even if they turned the place upside down. “It seems that we can’t spare those people no matter what. You have to do me a favor. We have to find Akash and get the elf tree or all our efforts will be in vain.” Abele gritted her teeth and finally decided to kill Akash.… Meanwhile, Akash had escaped and knew that a great calamity had befallen his family. It was a total disaster. “Luckily, I have the pills from Philip, or I wouldn’t have been able to escape that woman’s clutches.” Akash felt a lingering fear. Although a pill had been taken from him, he felt better now. At least he still had many pills from Philip. “I have no choice but to find Philip next. If he’s unwilling to help me, I’ll have to beg someone else.” Thinking of this, Akash
Akash had been injured by the black energy emitted by Abele. He would be in trouble if he did not heal himself. Seeing this scene, Abele rushed over and snatched the pill from Akash’s hand. Abele had been waiting to get hold of one. “Give it to me.” Abele moved very fast after being possessed by the demon. Akash did not have time to take the pill before Abele snatched it from him. Seeing this scene, Akash looked around for his warriors, but everyone had left. Akash felt relieved. As long as his warriors had fled to safety, he had nothing to worry about. Seeing that Abele was admiring the pill, Akash quickly ran away. It was the best opportunity for him to run. He would have a future as long as he ran. He had to survive before he could make a comeback. Where there was a will, there was a way. Akash was quite good at running and soon vanished from everyone’s sight. Abele scoffed at Akash’s disappearance. Although she did not want to let him go, there was no point in cha
“I think those are pills made by humans. I wonder where he found such powerful pills. Get them for me. I’m very interested in studying them.” At this moment, a voice rang in Abele’s ear, most likely the person behind the scenes. Abele rolled her eyes. Who would not be interested in such a good thing? Everyone wanted to get one but it depended on individual ability. “According to my understanding over the years, even the best potions can't produce such a strong healing effect, not even the potions made by Merlin. These pills are a force to be reckoned with, and I want to get them now. Do something about it. Don’t let me down,” the voice forced Abele to solve the problem. “You know who has the pills. He’s very powerful, and I’m no match for him at all unless you help me.” Abele gritted her teeth and finally suggested. She knew that Philip was a human, so it had to be him. However, Philip had left, and no one knew where he went. In that case, she could only start with Akash.
They had suffered badly enough over the years, so Abele just wanted to resist. Akash had to die at all costs. Akash watched in sorrow as his warriors fought to their deaths. He wondered where Abele found her reinforcements, but that was not important now. His people were about to surrender, so that question was meaningless now. “Run!” A warrior saw Akash standing in a daze and was filled with panic. He rushed through the attacks and urged Akash to flee. “As long as you’re still alive, the elves will have a chance to make a comeback. No matter what, we can't let the enemies have their way. You have to make a comeback and show them how powerful we are!” The warrior was stabbed several times, but his face was full of determination as if he would never give in to these people. Tears welled up in Akash's eyes. He never thought that his people would say such sorrowful words one day. “I’ll die if you don’t leave now.” The warrior had no choice but to use his death to threaten
