Chapter 3349
The First Heir
Seeing this, several members of the White Marsh royal family activated the White Marsh imprints on
their bodies.
Several golden lambs of different sizes jumped out, but facing the prestige of these White Marsh
mythical beasts, the worms seemed unperturbed.
âHow could this be?â one person asked.
The White Marsh mythical beasts summoned by these people were not capable of devouring other
exotic beasts like the one Philip had. Seeing that they could not make the worms succumb to them,
they transformed into streaks of light and burrowed back into the imprints on their ownersâ bodies.
The faces of these worms were full of circles of sharp teeth, and they slowly approached the group of
people.
In the crowd, the womanâs face changed. She wielded a sharp sword and weaved through the worms,
but her sword did no damage to the worms except produce sparks.
âWhy are there so many metal-devouring worms?â
Everyone kept retreating.
The metal-devouring worms were not afraid of any attacks except fire, but the few fire elemental
practitioners among them had died in the earlier fight. There were no suitable combustible items for
them to ignite here either.
While everyone was at a loss, a huge body that was dragged along by the team with a rope said
quietly, âTheyâre afraid of fire. You can stop it with stun grenades.â
Although everyone was a little skeptical, they still took out some stun grenades and threw them at the
worms.
Bang! Buzz!
This attack successfully slowed the worms down.
Not far away, Philip thought this voice sounded a little familiar. After thinking about it, he grinned.
Unexpectedly, the fat guy he thought of just now was here.
The owner of this voice was none other than Hiram Pine, who took rations enough for several people in
the camp the other day.
Philip took out a mask from his space ring and put it on his face. Blood-red spots were arranged
irregularly on the mask as if someoneâs blood was splashed on it.
After his fists were covered in flames, Philip launched an attack on the worms from the cave entrance
like a ghost.
Seeing the pure and scorching flames, the worms turned around and fled in all directions, disappearing
into the other tunnels in a flash.
Philip looked like a top expert now, wearing a loose robe over his combat uniform. The blood-stained
mask added a touch of mystery.
âThank you for your help, sir, â several people said.
Did he look that old?
Although uncomfortable, Philip said gravely, âI was just passing through here and saw you in trouble. I
just decided to lend a helping hand. But why didnât you use fire attacks?â
âWe encountered a ferocious beast earlier and had to use fire attacks too, but because the beast was
too strong, all our fire elemental practitioners died in that fight,â The person who spoke said helplessly.
âOh, but I see that someone is all tied up. Why is that?â Philip glanced at Hiram who was lying there
like a corpse and smothered a laugh.
âThis man belongs to the ancient dragon faction, but heâs very knowledgeable. We can keep him and
make use of him for a while.â
It turned out this greedy little fat man also had profound knowledge, which Philip did not expect.
The woman from the White Marsh royal family in the team spoke, âWhy are you alone, sir?â
âIâm just a casual practitioner and donât belong to any major factions,â Philip said with a smile.
âI wonder if youâll be interested in joining our party for the time being. Treasures obtained by the
individual will belong to the individual and donâ t have to be handed in. What do you think?â the woman
said.
âThat sounds reasonableâ¦â
Before Philip could finish speaking, a person beside the woman whispered to her, âMy lord, we donât
know this personâs background. Inviting him recklessly may lead to trouble.â
The woman glanced at the man and said, âWhat are you afraid of? If the White Marsh is afraid of a
casual practitioner, we canât call ourselves a major force.â
They were severely lacking fire elemental practitioners now, and Philipâs arrival had relieved them of
this urgent need. Moreover, the strength Philip revealed just now was only seven stars.
The others did not raise any objections.
Philip landed next to Hiram, kicked him, and said, âThe people of the ancient dragon royal family are
really getting on my nerves.â
