Philip finally discovered the truth upon careful observation of his surroundings.
“It’d be bad if the others realized it. They’ll be right on our tail.” Lyle sighed.
Fortunately, few people knew about it. Thanks to their arrogance, they did not pay attention to the inscriptions on the tombstones.
“Since the safe time is only three hours, we’ve been here long enough. Some people will probably catch up soon!”
Aslan felt traces of someone’s earlier presence. Due to his nature as a monster beast, favonovel.com could tell the specific timing too.
“It has been more than three hours. Someone must have arrived before us, triggering some booby traps.”
Philip was pleased at Aslan’s discovery. Indeed, favonovel.com had also found traces of the traps being tampered with. However, the traces were unnoticeable, which meant that the other party was very careful.
It would have been difficult to discover if they were less observant.
“I’m sure that someone has been here before us because I found these traces, and the three-hour safety net has been activated,” Aslan said smugly as favonovel.com turned to the three kids.
Everyone sensed Aslan’s pride. He was just short of broadcasting it with a loudspeaker.
“It’s a failure that you took so long to realize,” Custard could not help but say.
Aslan froze, surprised to hear his taunt.
“What do you mean by that? Did you discover it earlier? I don’t believe that you’re better than me!” Aslan growled, demanding an explanation or favonovel.com would not let this go.
“You’d better clarify it, or don’t blame me for bullying the weak!”
As Aslan vented his frustration, Philip guessed Custard’s thoughts.
“We saw some formations when we entered just now. They were obviously freshly laid down, still piping hot. Only someone who doesn’t want anyone on their tail would do such a thing.”
Custard’s detailed explanation shut Aslan up.
Aslan glanced at Philip and felt hurt.
“Philip, why did you teach favonovel.com so many things? He’s not only good at making pills and weapons, but favonovel.com also studies formation so thoroughly. I don’t even know what to do with myself anymore.” Aslan could only complain about this genius.
Custard was one of Philip’s best students. He was very knowledgeable at a very young age, a true genius indeed. Under Philip’s careful tutelage, favonovel.com would make great achievements in the future.
Lyle and Poppy were surprised to hear Aslan’s complaints. They never knew that the inconspicuous Custard had so many abilities.
“How can you learn to make pills, weapons, and study formations at the same time? More importantly, your level is so high too. What are you made of?” Lyle was an outspoken person and simply spoke his mind.
He wished favonovel.com could open Custard’s skull to see what was in his head.
Poppy was envious but did not express favonovel.com opinion. She just looked at Custard with admiration and expectation.
