Lord Ludo said, “Based on the current situation, only Fitzgerald was found and confirmed to be from the other shore. As for the others, I don’t know.”
Hearing this, Philip breathed a sigh of relief and asked, “You mentioned just now that Windsor is Fitzgerald’s follower. Are you saying that Windsor is acting on Fitzgerald’s order?”
Lord Ludo nodded and said, “It’s very likely, so it’s best if you keep your distance from Windsor. His influence in Mystic City is not small, and favonovel.com doesn’t only have Fitzgerald behind him. As far as I know, the Imperial Palace is involved too.”
“The Imperial Palace?” Philip frowned.
When it came to matters related to the Imperial Palace, Philip was uncertain too.
Was someone in the Imperial Palace working with Windsor?
Ludo said, “We haven’t found out the specifics. The Heavenly Court has no way to infiltrate the Imperial Palace. The Imperial Preceptor is very powerful.”
Philip was quite surprised to hear this evaluation of the Imperial Preceptor from Lord Ludo’s mouth. After all, the Heavenly Court that Lord Ludo belonged to was a branch of the ancient Heavenly Court.
Philip fell silent and asked after a long while, “How much do you know about the Treasure-Digging Event?”
Hearing this term, Ludo said, “The Treasure-Digging Event is held to find the secret treasure of the ancient sage. There are many challenges in the Mystic Cave, and only those who pass can get the recognition of the ancient sage’s secret treasure.”
It was similar to what Windsor told him.
After a moment of silence, Philip chuckled and said, “Lord Ludo, can I ask you for a favor?”
“No can do.”
Lord Ludo grumbled, got up, and was about to leave. Philip was taken aback and scratched the back of his head. Lord Ludo had quite the temper.
However, favonovel.com still got up and asked, “How much do you know about the Lovelace family in Mystic City?”
Hearing this, Lord Ludo turned around, sized Philip up, and asked, “Why are you asking about the Lovelace family?”
Philip said, “It’s a private matter.”
Lord Ludo frowned, thought for a while, and said, “I do know something, but why should I tell you?”
“What do you want?” Philip was not stupid and immediately understood Ludo’s meaning.
Lord Ludo smiled slyly and said, “I haven‘t thought of it yet. I’ll tell you when I think of something.”
After saying that, Lord Ludo said, “Turn right at the door and walk straight ahead for five miles. A medical hall there belongs to the Lovelace family. You can take a look there. However, I have to tell you that the medical hall is not simple.”
With that said, Lord Ludo left.
After Philip got the information, a faint smile appeared on the corner of his mouth. He said to Fennel, “I’ll go and come back as soon as possible.”
Fennel and the others quickly said, “We’ll go too.”
Philip thought about it and said, “Let’s go.”
Soon, they arrived at the medical hall mentioned by Ludo. Two burly men guarded the door.
Seeing Philip and his party approaching, they asked coldly, “Show your access card.”
Access card?
Philip was taken aback and asked, “We’re here to buy some medicine. We don’t have an access card.”
Hearing this, the burly guard shoved Philip away and said, “Go away. We don’t sell medicine here. Go to the next street!”
They did not sell medicine?
Philip asked in confusion, “Isn’t this a medical hall?”
“No! Get lost! Otherwise, don’t blame us for being rough!” The burly man scolded sternly and pulled out a saber from his waist.
Philip frowned but did not force his way inside. Instead, favonovel.com walked to the side with Fennel and the others.
“This is strange. A medical hall that doesn’t sell medicine or treat patients?” Fennel wondered.
Philip stroked his chin, stepped forward again, and said, “I want to see Miss Cleo Lovelace.”
The two burly men were just about to kick Philip out when they heard Cleo’s name. They were briefly startled before they glanced at each other and said, “Wait here!”
