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
Fabio and the others did check the place carefully just now and confirmed that there was no one in the research room. However, the figure that suddenly appeared was puzzling. It turned out that when Fabio and the others were carefully inspecting the various rooms in the research lab, the figure came in quietly through the door and jumped up into the air like a gecko, spreading his limbs and firmly attaching to the ceiling. No one noticed him there at all! After Fabio and others left, they returned to the duty room to rest. Naturally, it was unlikely for them to check the place again, and there were also people in the monitoring room. If anything happened in the research room, it would show up on the monitors, so they were relatively at ease. However, in the monitoring room at this moment, the people staring at the screens did not realize that the monitors had been tampered with. What they were seeing was just a static screen! Therefore, whatever happened in the research roo
Fire Serpent immediately expressed his intention to negotiate. “You’re already standing at death’s door and still dare to negotiate terms with me?” Philip went up and kicked Fire Serpent on his head! After this kick, Fire Serpent felt a buzzing in his head as countless little gold stars were flashing in front of him. The opponent was too brutal. There was no hesitation at all! Fire Serpent's eyes went dark as he fell to the ground while holding his head. His strength seemed to be drained completely. He could not figure it out at all. With just one kick, he was incapacitated with no strength to resist at all! Was he still human? After all, he was the top killer in the organization, but he could not even handle one strike from the opponent! Philip saw that he was lying on the ground and could not recover, so he could not be bothered with him anymore. Instead, he walked to one side and switched on the laboratory lights! In an instant, the entire laboratory was brightly
Wynn’s heart was shaken when she received the text message. Hannah Clarke! Was that the woman who gave her the necklace the other day? Come to think of it, when Philip heard the name that day, he got quite agitated. This woman’s last name was Clarke too. Did she have any special relationship with Philip? Wynn looked at the content of the text message, thought for a long time, and replied, ‘Who are you? How are you related to Philip?’ Ding-dong. A reply came in. ‘If you want to find out, come to the café.’ Should she go? Wynn fell into deep thought. If she went, it signified her distrust of Philip. If she did not go, she would let herself down. After all, Philip was getting more and more unpredictable. Back to the Beacon research lab. The dagger in Fire Serpent’s hand glinted with a cold chill, piercing toward Philip! Unexpectedly, the dagger did not stab into Philip’s chest as Fire Serpent had hoped for! The dagger stopped about an inch away from Philip’s
“Don’t worry. He’s not as powerful as you think. Besides, you can take control of my body at the critical moment, can’t you?” Abele patted her chest confidently. Hearing that, the mysterious voice stopped wasting its breath on Abele. They arrived at Philip’s residence at this point. They were surprised to find the door wide open as if Philip was waiting for their arrival. “That’s strange. Does he always leave the door open, or is he prepared to deal with us?” Abele was puzzled and pushed the door open carefully. Maybe the door was too old, so it made a creaking sound, which was quite unpleasant. There was no one behind the door. “What’s going on?” The ugly elves entered the garden but only saw some empty teacups with no sign of anyone. “They must have heard the news and ran away in advance or this place wouldn’t be empty now!” Abele was disappointed that they ran so quickly. In reality, Philip had stuffed everyone in Verge Tower while he watched the scene in a hidden co
“Take this pill and you won’t have to go around with this scary face anymore. Even if it doesn't scare our women, it's not good to scare other people.” Philip helped Loony as a show of his sincerity. He was a pitiful man, after all. “That’s great. I’ve not seen a pill for many years!” He seemed to trust Philip and swallowed the pill Philip gave him without hesitation. He looked very satisfied as if he was Philip’s devoted follower. After he swallowed the pill, his injuries healed before everyone’s eyes, and he was soon back to normal. Loony was surprised by that powerful force and trusted Philip even more. Philip set a barrier around Loony and gave him a room to rest. The barrier he set could shield Loony and buy them some time. He knew that the ugly elves were right on their tail, and it was also about time for the merfolk to find them. Philip would be in trouble if everyone showed up at the same time. Therefore, it was better to conceal Loony and take care of the thin
“I’m running out of time. I have a curse on me, and they can find my whereabouts. I’ll die if you don’t help me.” “You said you can help me escape from this world. What do you mean by that?” Philip was more interested in this topic. After all, everyone would think that the world of the gods was a good place. Why would anyone choose to leave? Unless that person was a fool. This world was full of energy and resources. If humans were not seen as outcasts, Philip could not understand why anyone would want to leave. “This world is nothing but a huge cage. Those people are unaware of it because they're trapped inside. No one knows that they're nothing but the playthings of the so-called upper gods. They’ll be abandoned once the interest wears off one day!” Hearing that, Aslan came to a conclusion. This guy was no doubt a mental patient who should be sent to the hospital for treatment. “Philip, do you believe him? I think he’s nothing but a patient from a mental asylum.” Aslan f
“What’s this vintage family?” Philip had never heard of this family in all the worlds he traveled, so he had no idea what the other party was talking about. “My family is proficient in voodoo and has always used it to embark on the path of practice. But our powerful practice makes us a prime target for those with ulterior motives too.” The people of this family were very powerful, so everyone envied them and tried to harm them. “The members of my family led a normal life back then, but later, many people were deceived into marrying people of other races. As a result, the offspring of such pairings became monsters without legs! “We'd only find one normal child among a dozen children, which is a great blow to our family. No one could accept it! “I’m the only normal child among my batch of children, so I have a distinguished status. Something happened to my family after I was born, so I’m probably the last descendant of my family.” Philip was very excited to hear the other p
Meanwhile, Philip sensed that someone was fast approaching them. “Everyone, watch out. I sense something coming for us,” Philip said warily. There was a loud knock on the door. Lyle walked over curiously and opened the door. He saw a disheveled man standing at the door and staring at him. It was a scary sight, indeed. “What the hell? Dude, don’t scare me in broad daylight! What are you doing?” Lyle cursed in fright. He never dreamed that he would see such a horrible scene. The man was covered in terrifying wounds, some so deep that the bones could be seen. He had clearly been injured for a while. His face also looked incomplete as if his flesh had been gnawed alive by something. He was just unpleasant to look at. Aslan and the others rushed over, curious to see what frightened Lyle so badly. Everyone frowned at the sight of the man, shocked by his terrifying appearance. “Whoa!” Even the talkative Aslan was at a loss for words. While he sympathized with the other party,
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
