Martha was an ordinary person and could never escape their clutches. Even if they did not supervise her, there was no worry about this woman running away. “Let's go in and take a look. Don't waste time on this old woman.” Some members urged. They wanted to take a break after this. Taking advantage of this opportunity, Skeeter quickly sneaked out. He looked at the stupid members and sneered inwardly. ‘Hehe, what a bunch of idiots. No one suspected that the woman was just bait. I wonder how they got this far?’ Skeeter sneered and taunted them inwardly. He marched to the entrance and saw some members drinking tea. He was dumbfounded. He thought everyone was inside looking for him, but they left a few guards outside. The members saw Skeeter and were at a loss for what to do. “How did this guy escape?” “I don’t know. We were drinking tea. I didn’t notice how he made his way out.” “What are you waiting for? Don’t let him escape!” The members quickly discussed how to
Members of the Pill Guild were infuriated by Skeeter’s smugness and wondered how he could be so annoying. “Let’s teach him a good lesson!” “How dare he show his ugly face in front of us? How shameless!” “Is he older than Martha? We actually beat up an old man today.” “What’s the big deal with an old man? He deserves it!” “We don't know who this guy is anyway. He’s just a loser our elder picked up.” Everyone chatted with no intention of stopping. Skeeter overheard the conversation and understood. These people were so brazen because they did not know how noble his status was. “You don’t know my identity?!” Skeeter roared and struggled. Everyone was puzzled and wondered. “I’m the senior member of the Smith Guild, Skeeter! You guys are bullying me with your numbers! Do you know the consequences of messing with the Smith Guild?” Skeeter shouted angrily as if to hide his pain. Everyone was surprised by this coincidence. The elder simply grabbed a random person who tur
They hurried back to make some plans to attack. They saw Skeeter standing aside smugly. This man looked very triumphant with disdain written all over his face. Skeeter scowled at the new arrivals and asked, “Who are you?” He felt as if he had full control over these guys, but another group of people turned up again. They seemed like ordinary people with no practice levels. Skeeter nudged the member next to him and pointed at Maurice. “Tell this guy who I am,” Skeeter said unhappily. Fortunately, he had recruited several followers, which saved him a lot of trouble. As the senior member of the Smith Guild, he could go anywhere he wanted, and no one dared to do anything to him—at least in the practice world. The so-called followers were amazed by Skeeter’s audacity. Besides, who was Skeeter to give them orders? The members walked up to Maurice and greeted him. They were not as brainless as Skeeter. Maurice was their guild leader. No matter how stupid they were, t
“But I can’t tell you much about it. Every guild has its secrets, you know.” Skeeter spoke pretentiously, which not only highlighted his status but also prevented Maurice from asking more questions. Maurice was very satisfied with Skeeter’s reaction. “Okay, since you know so much, it’s better for us.” He waved his hand as a signal for his people to capture Skeeter. Everyone was quick on the uptake and understood his meaning. The members swarmed over and knocked the pretentious guy down. Skeeter was not very strong to begin with, and after consuming a lot of energy in the fight earlier, he was all the more unable to resist. Skeeter was pinned pathetically to the floor. He struggled to look up and said, “What are you guys doing? Do you remember who I am? You’ll end up dead if you dare to mess with the Smith Guild!” Skeeter was very angry that these people would dare to do this after knowing his identity. “Which guild do you belong to? Don’t think I’m afraid of you j
“It’d be great if the leader of the Smith Guild had your self-awareness.” Maurice smiled smugly. “Bring that woman here!” he said. Now that the hostages were in place, it was time to put the plan into action. The people from the Pill Guild marched to the Smith Guild.… Meanwhile, no one realized that Skeeter was missing. Skeeter was not a popular person, and his presence was not conspicuous. Everyone would feel better if he stayed away from them, so no one thought of looking for him even though he had been missing for a while. Philip and the others quickly came up with some plans, totally disregarding Skeeter’s unfounded plan. His plan was just to charge forward recklessly without thinking, but the Smith Guild was not the best at fighting. While there was still time, Philip led a team to set up a small formation. Delia learned seriously, afraid that she would miss something if she got distracted. Philip set up a formation in front of everyone, and Delia quickly
Maurice and his people had arrived at the Smith Guild. At first, they thought of attacking from the air, but they could not do so when they arrived in this area. It was difficult for them to walk, not to mention flying. Maurice was unwilling to give up and forced himself to remain standing. He would never kneel here. However, this was not a matter of sheer will but his physical ability. With a thud, Maurice fell to his knees. Everyone was shocked and hurried to help him up. They scowled as they found themselves kneeling next to Maurice the next second. They realized that they could no longer control their bodies. Maurice scowled as he guessed something. “Damn it, these people actually came up with a formation!” Maurice never expected this. Maurice was aware that the Smith Guild was learned in the art of formations, but he never thought that this formation was so powerful. Anyone wanting to attack them would be trapped inside, while anyone with peace of mind co
Having realized this, Emery was quite lighthearted. Whether the plan succeeded or not, he had nothing to fear with Philip around. At this time, Maurice was worried, and his people were panicking. They entered the formation by mistake, and everyone had suffered various wounds. This formation could attack them, resulting in various injuries. Everyone had the idea of retreating. They did not expect that a small formation could be so powerful. Delia was pleasantly surprised at their misery. So what if it was an ordinary formation? They could not escape from it. Everyone was frustrated about the formation around them. Maurice was all the angrier that this protection barrier was so powerful. “Damn it, why didn’t they use such a powerful formation earlier? Maurice said solemnly, trying to think of a way out. Everyone was flustered by his words. They would be dead if Maurice could not find a way out. Skeeter and Martha looked at each other as they stood behind the c
With their energy cores destroyed, there was no way they could continue practicing. Ordinary people could not make pills. Maurice could not bear losing half his members in one go. “Damn it, you went too far!” Maurice could not bear it anymore and started attacking the formation without qualms. He believed that as long as his attacks were stronger than the formation, he could escape. Philip and the others felt that they were very pitiful too. Seeing the heavy casualties, Philip deactivated the formation without hesitation. He did not expect that the formation he found in the book would be so powerful. This result had exceeded his imagination. The remaining opponents could hardly pose a threat to the Smith Guild now. The people trapped in the formation watched helplessly as Maurice attacked the formation frantically. Everyone pinned all their hopes on Maurice. Maurice was badly attacked by the formation and kept throwing up blood. Several of his ribs were broken.
