As Philip spoke, his level dropped to eight stars.
His breathing became disordered, his face was flushed, and there was a trickle of blood at
the corner of his mouth.
It looked like the side effects of taking the Energy Concentration Pill.
"I thought I could help you get rid of that guy before the pill lost its effect, but he ran too
quickly," Philip
said.
"If he hadn't run away, it would've been worse for you," Regus said helplessly as he rolled
his eyes at Philip.
Regus did not dwell on Philip's strength. At their level, everyone had secrets, so Regus did
not ask.

"If you hadn't arrived in time, I'd have died under his hands," Philip said nonchalantly.
Regus simply stretched his hand out to Philip and said, "You got that mirror. Hand it over."
"What? I don't know anything," Philip said with a smile.
"Are you playing dumb? That thing isn't the holy object of Ocular Mountain but the
Beelzebub family," Regus said mildly.
Philip said unhappily, "Just because your family is big and powerful doesn't mean that
everything belongs to you. Since you've taken over Schonberg Ancient Ruin, you should
have withstood the pressure and fully occupied it."
"Why let casual practitioners like us enter? My teacher won't be happy if he knows you're
using your power to oppress others," Philip threatened.
Licht emerged from underground and said, "That's right. If you really dare to do this, the
Great Holy Polo might demand an explanation from your Beelzebub family."
Regus looked at Licht curiously and said, "I didn't know the fame of the Great Holy Polo
back then and only found out when I asked some elders of my family about him. I'm afraid
the Great Holy Polo wouldn't dare to set foot in the Beelzebub royal family," Regus said
casually.
Licht obviously did not know this.
Apparently, the Great Holy Polo had a past with the Beelzebub royal family while treasure
hunting back
then.
Regus brought this up because he wanted to have a good talk with Philip and to prevent
him from bringing up the Great Holy Polo every now and then to threaten him.

He paused and added, "This holy object belongs to my family because only the blood of
the Beelzebub royal family can activate it. Even if you get your hands on Verge Mirror, you
can't use it at all."
When the Schonberg Ancient Ruin was opened previously, some talents of the Beelzebub
royal family obviously took this treasure into the secret realm.
Unfortunately, no one returned after entering Sin Capital.
Philip thought, 'The royal families have started using sophisticated methods such as
bloodline authentication to prevent their holy objects from falling into the hands of others.
If I find any other treasures in the future, does it mean I can't use them?'
Philip looked at Regus and said helplessly to Licht, "Give him that mirror."
"Why?"
Licht said indignantly, "We worked so hard to grab it. Why should we give it to him?"
"I don't want to give it to him either, but the point is, we can't use it."
