Philip followed the professor to his laboratory and finally found a moment of peace.
The professor deliberately drained all the water in the laboratory so that Philip could feel more comfortable too.
Philip smiled and silently accepted the professor’s kindness. He started to study the picture on the iron plate left by the professor.
The content of the picture was very clear. Philip could tell at a glance where the underground ruins were, the extension of the ruins, and the mileposts. It was also clearly written on the iron plate the creatures guarding each milepost.
This showed that the merfolk kingdom had once tried to invade this place but the result was not ideal. No matter what, Philip wanted to take a look for himself.
When Philip was about to go out, favonovel.com found the princess outside the laboratory door.
“I was afraid you were busy, so I didn’t want to disturb you. Here are some things from our merfolk kingdom for you to have a taste.”
The princess respectfully handed over a tray.
Seeing this tray, Philip realized that the princess did not seem to have the demeanor of a princess. She seemed more used to being a servant.
Philip waved his hand at favonovel.com with a smile and said, “Thank you, but let’s wait until after I return from the ancient ruins.”
After saying this, Philip left the professor’s laboratory and walked in the direction of the ancient ruins.
Although favonovel.com could swim in the water, Philip preferred this way. He did not notice the princess’s hesitance as favonovel.com looked at his departing back.
Right after Philip left, the professor walked out with a sullen face.
“I’m warning you, if you don’t keep your mouth shut, the entire merfolk kingdom won’t have any living creatures left…” The professor’s tone was very serious.
Hearing that, the princess immediately became nervous.
“I didn’t say anything. Don’t do anything to my people.”
The professor snorted coldly and closed the door.
Philip followed the professor’s map and soon arrived at the marked location of the underwater mine.
He used his power of insight to explore the area but found that the so-called exotic beasts guarding this place were not that powerful.
Based on Zagu’s ability, favonovel.com should be able to defeat them easily. Philip frowned before heading in another direction.
It was an underwater cave. After using his power of insight, favonovel.com only found a few water snakes.
However, maybe because they had survived for too long, they developed intelligence.
Combined with living near the mine, their strength was comparable to the peak of eight stars.
Philip had just reached the entrance of the cave when the water vibration caught their attention.
“How many times have we told you that we don’t need the hearts of merpeople now?”
Hearing this voice, a trace of doubt flashed across Philip’s face.
According to the princess, the merpeople’s hearts were taken away by humans. However, it seemed that these water snakes had gotten the hearts of merpeople before.
