Chapter 3417

During these few days of interaction, although Gordon did not reveal his level, Philip guessed that he

was at least at the early stage of eight stars, and the level of his scimitar intent was very solid.

He was also the first person Philip had come across to participate in the Heroes Conference, which

should be very interesting.

Philip tried to bring the energy practice module of the Three Phase God-Demon Technique to the

second level, but every time he tried to advance, he felt that something was missing, so he was at a

loss for a while.

Around noon on the fifth day of living here, the sound of a group of people approaching the wooden

house caught Philip’s attention. It should be some people traveling. Philip was not bothered and got up

to prepare lunch.

The leader stopped after seeing the wooden house.

There were nine people, a mix of men and women. They did not have any transportation, and they

were not very old, so Philip guessed that they were participants in the Heroes Conference too.

Seeing them stop, Philip continued to prepare his meal without raising his head.

He asked coldly, “What’s up?”

Seeing Philip being so rude, a hot-tempered person wanted to teach him a lesson but was stopped by

the leader.

“Sir, do you know the Ape Cave around here?” the leader said.

Philip had not shaved recently and looked a little weather-beaten.

“Are you talking about those earth-elemental monkeys?”

Philip was boiling water, getting ready to cook some meat.

“Yes, please give us some pointers.”

“If you follow that direction, you’ll reach a rock mountain. With your speed, you should take about half

an hour to reach it.” As he spoke, Philip pointed in the southeast direction.

”Thank you for your advice, Sir.”

After saying that, the leader left with his people.

Before they had gone far, the hot-tempered man said indignantly, “Why were you so polite to that

barbarian? He didn’t even look us in the eye.”

”That temper of yours will get you into trouble sooner or later. This forest is full of danger everywhere.

Someone who dares to live here can’t be that simple. That wooden house of his is made of materials

found in this area, but it’s no different from the ones made in a factory,” the leader explained calmly.

“Maybe he has a machine to chip wood,” the hot-tempered man mumbled.

”I’m saying that he may be a weapon expert. We’re here for the Heroes Conference, so we must be

careful and not act recklessly.”

While chatting, they saw a small rocky mountain with a cave at the foot of the mountain. Several apes

were patrolling the cave entrance.

“It seems that he didn’t lie to us.”

He turned to the others and said, “This time, we’ll only take the stone fruit in the cave. Try to avoid

fighting with the stone apes.”

When Philip finished eating outside the stone house and was about to practice, the group of people

returned. It took them about an hour to go there and back.

“My name is Chet Wayne. Thanks for your directions just now.” As he spoke, he placed a stone fruit on

the wooden block in front of Philip.

“I’m sick of it. You can keep it.” Seeing this fruit again, Philip answered helplessly.

However, the man did not take it away but left with his people after saying goodbye to Philip.

“Do you think he’s pretending?” a young woman walked to the front and asked.

”I don’t think so. The stone apes were quite aggressive when they saw us coming in, and many fruits

were missing from the stone tree, so I think that man has gone there before.”

“Oh, but anyway, I can improve my level now, so I don’t care,” the girl said.
