Philip's eyes turned cold when he heard the comments, but he did not say anything.

Since the people had spoken, the boss had to give a reasonable explanation.

The conversion of tokens was fixed. One red token was equivalent to ten yellow tokens, 100 black tokens, or 1,000 white tokens. In other words, the boss raised the price by 30 times.

Hearing the man's words, the boss sneered coldly and said, "I can sell my things at whatever price I want. What do you care?"

A powerful aura exploded from the boss, and everyone trembled under the fluctuating aura. Only Parkson and the others could withstand it.

Knowing this, Philip frowned. Then, he immersed his thoughts into Verge Tower and communicated with Haley.

"Haley, can you tell me what that thing is? How much is it worth?"

Haley said without hesitation, "This thing is worth at least two holy artifacts!"

Philip's pupils constricted at Haley's words.

He was fully aware of Haley's ability and knowledge. Since Haley said that this thing was worth two holy artifacts, even the most basic and trashiest holy artifacts would definitely exceed the price of three red tokens!

This transaction was no loss!

Thinking of this, Philip spoke without hesitation, "Okay, I'll give you three red tokens..."

With that said, Philip looked at Licht and Cora and said, "Guys... Give me your red tokens."

The two were taken aback. Cora gave it to him without hesitation, but, on contrary, Licht hesitated.

"Do you really want to spend three red tokens to buy this thing? Do you really think it's worth it?"

Philip did not reply but looked at Licht fixedly with a determined look in his eyes.

Licht fell silent upon seeing this. He was puzzled for a moment but because he felt that Philip had his own reasons he decided to hand over his token.

He took out his red token and handed it to Philip and said, "I hope you won't regret it..."

A smile appeared on Philip's face as he took out his token and handed all three to the boss.

The boss said meaningfully, "Well... Young man, I'm amazed at your decisiveness..."

The boss took the red tokens from Philip's hand and said lightly, "Okay, you can take that stone."

After saying that, the boss closed his eyes and lay there lazily without moving.

Philip breathed a sigh of relief. If the boss went back on his word, he would be very upset. Since that did not happen, it was a good thing for Philip. At least, he did not have to expose his strength.

In such a dangerous place, less exposure would give Philip more hope of surviving. He realized that there were more dangers in this ancient ruin than he knew!

He did not want to die here.

After taking the stone, they headed out of the city.

On their way, Licht could not help but ask, "Philip, what's up with that stone?"

Philip, who was studying the stone, shrugged helplessly and said, "I don't know... I just feel that this stone is calling out to me."

Philip lied without a trace, and even someone as smart as Licht could not tell anything.
