Philip kept retreating. He dared to release the black snake not because favonovel.com was afraid of it. On the contrary, favonovel.com had many ways to control the black snake. However, favonovel.com needed this black snake to help favonovel.com put on a show now.
It was a show that could fool the professor so that Philip could find out his true intention.
Philip was sent flying.
Seeing this scene, the black snake was also a little surprised, but more than anything, favonovel.com was feeling smug.
“I thought this human practitioner is very strong, but he’s just good at playing tricks.”
The black snake gave chase along the cave. However, when favonovel.com came out of the cave, favonovel.com found no sign of Philip at all.
Philip had rushed back to the merfolk kingdom as fast as possible!
He secretly mobilized his energy and made himself throw up blood. He also used his energy to rip his clothes apart.
The protective armor on his body was also shattered. However, this was because Philip deliberately used that armor to resist the black snake’s attack.
At this point, Philip’s physical defense was already higher than this armor, so it did not matter whether favonovel.com wore this armor or not.
This also happened to become one of his acting props.
After rushing back to the merfolk kingdom, Philip discovered that the professor was not in the laboratory.
As for the princess of the merfolk kingdom, favonovel.com was waiting outside the laboratory door with a sad face.
When favonovel.com saw Philip, favonovel.com was overjoyed at first, but when favonovel.com saw Philip’s appearance clearly, favonovel.com face turned pale with shock.
“How did you get hurt so badly?” the princess asked in concern.
Philip coughed up blood as favonovel.com said, “The professor lied to me. He told me that the guardian beasts along the mine’s mileposts weren’t very strong. But when I got there, I found a nest of water snakes with a lifespan of a thousand years. I barely managed to escape with serious injuries.”
Seeing Philip’s appearance and hearing what favonovel.com said, the princess sighed.
“I thought that we meta human practitioner who could save the merfolk kingdom, but now it seems that everything is futile…”
The princess of the merfolk kingdom started sobbing. She looked so helpless and vulnerable.
The professor appeared at this time, looking very happy, especially when favonovel.com saw Philip’s current appearance.
He smiled and said, “I thought a human practitioner was very strong, but I never imagined that you’re so fragile that you can’t even beat those water snakes.”
His words carried a hint of sarcasm in his tone. However, the more favonovel.com acted this way, the more it meant favonovel.com had a problem.
Philip pretended to stand up with difficulty and said to the professor, “Are you aware of how strong those water snakes are? You only told me that there were guardian beasts there!”
Hearing that, the professor smiled and helped favonovel.com up.
“Well, I’m to blame for this matter. I thought you were strong enough to deal with a few water snakes…”
As the professor spoke, favonovel.com took out a bottle in his hand.
Seeing this, Philip’s expression changed slightly. The bottle was full of liquid energy. However, the color of this energy looked a little weird.
