Chapter 3231
At this moment, everyone noticed that Philip and his team were right in the middle.
Even Cougar was startled when he saw this and asked, “How did you get in the middle?”
Cougar knew that the people in Cougar Squad had opinions about Philip and his team, and there was no reason to protect them at all. Thus, Cougar was curious about this situation, which was why he asked.
However, his words made the people in Cougar Squad think that their commander was standing up for them.
Someone promptly made a sarcastic remark, “How else could they have gotten to the middle? It must be because they’re timid and afraid of dying. They’re the Women’s Brigade after all, but they insist on coming here to act as heroes!”
Leopard and Iris were angry when they heard this and were about to charge at those people. However, Philip stopped Leopard and chuckled.
He said, “Iris, switch positions with Emily now. You’ll stand on guard.”
After saying this, Philip stepped up to the person who spoke just now.
“I remember you calling for help when the black humanoid creature came after you. If I remember correctly, he was the one who pulled you back.”
As Philip spoke, he pointed to Leopard behind him.
“Did you say that we’re timid and afraid of death? Yes, we are. Aren’t you? If you aren’t, why did you call for help?”
The man wanted to say something, but Philip stopped him.
“As we’re afraid of death, we didn’t drop our guard since the moment we stepped into this place. What about you?”
Looking at the silent members of the Cougar Squad around, Philip continued.
“I found the problem and told all of you to climb the trees, but you hesitated, and your hesitation caused the deaths of so many people. Now, you still dare to say that we’re timid and afraid of death and that we were protected by you?”
“What right do you have?”
Philip’s voice was sharp.
As Philip’s voice got louder, those people dropped their heads lower.
Seeing this scene, Philip said, “To organize an effective counterattack, we’ve been clearing these monsters from far to near. Did you help?”
There was no need for Philip to say further because everyone remembered that when they could not continue fighting those black humanoid creatures anymore, it was Philip and his team who pulled them up from the ground.
When Cougar saw this, he immediately understood what was going on.
“Listen carefully, all of you. From now on, if anyone dares to disrespect Philip and his team in this mission, I’ll expel you from Cougar Squad. What a disgrace!” With that said, Cougar left.
After he left, the members of Cougar Squad also started moving. In fact, they also had surveillance teams on the lookout, but they did not take this mission seriously at all, so the situation turned out this way.
Chapter 3232
“Our heroes, since you guys are so amazing, we shall hand over the lookout mission to you.”
This was the team that took first place on the virtual battlefield test. The person who spoke to Philip was none other than their captain.
In the sudden battle just now, their team was also one of the few teams with zero casualties.
Hearing that, Philip simply nodded.
“Switch teams every two hours. Four teams will go together.”
The Cougar Squad members seemed receptive to Philip’s orders and did not have any opinions.
Leopard followed behind Philip and asked along the way, “Boss, why should we listen to him? He’s not a commander!”
Philip simply smiled at Leopard’s remark.
“No matter what, rotating lookout duties can’t be avoided. Every team is the same and will be on the lookout sooner or later!”
At this time, the four guarded one direction of Cougar Squad, but this time, they were not on the trees but under the trees. The four stood in a square with their backs to their teammates. However, those black humanoid creatures seemed quiet. It had been more than half an hour with no signs of those creatures.
Philip knew that it was all the more reason they had to be on guard.
Before Philip and the others noticed anything, the sound of an electromagnetic pulse gun was heard not far from them. He was about to look in that direction when Leopard’s voice came over the walkie-talkie.
“Boss, should we help them?”
Hearing Leopard’s anxious voice, Philip knew that Leopard wanted to help, but he ordered instead, “No one is allowed to leave your position!”
Although he did not know why Philip gave this order, Leopard obeyed.
Philip checked the time again. It had been about 40 minutes since the last attack.
Philip said to Iris on the walkie-talkie, “Iris, get ready to fight!”
“Emily, be ready to support Iris!”
“Leopard, remain in your position and protect the two of them!”
Immediately after, Philip walked to the depths of the woods.
Seeing this scene, the three asked on the walkie-talkie almost at the same time, “What are you doing?”
Philip snorted coldly and said, “Someone sent us a gift. Of course, I have to look at it!”
After saying that, Philip’s figure disappeared from their sight.
Earlier, Philip had noticed someone lurking around the periphery of his lookout area, so Philip headed there alone.
Since the other party dared to lurk in this unfamiliar environment, this person must be very familiar with this place. At the very least, this person could easily deal with those black humanoid creatures.
As Philip went in further, he realized that the ground under his feet was getting muddier.
When Philip crouched down, he saw a lot of messy footprints on the ground. There were also many carcasses of those black humanoids, but Philip could see that they were killed by a slit in their throats.
It was a practiced movement and a kill at one strike!
Almost no one else could be faster than this person.
At this moment, a cold dagger was suddenly pressed on Philip’s neck
“Leave your weapons and equipment, and I can let you go alive!”
Philip frowned. This person moved so quickly and quietly!
“Don’t be impulsive. I can give you anything you want!” As Philip spoke, he slowly put his weapon on the ground.
He had discovered this person earlier but did not do anything. It was not because he could not, but because Philip had his ideas.
He was all too familiar with the dagger on his neck, which was something only available in the world he came from.
This person entered the land of the other shore through the stargate!

Chapter 3233
However, Philip had no way to turn back and look at the other party now!
Bang!
Bang! Bang!
Several gunshots scared the man away.
Philip looked into the distance and saw Lorna standing not far away. Two women with sniper rifles in their hands stood behind her.
“I thought you were powerful, but it seems I was mistaken. You actually allowed someone to sneak up on you and control you. It seems that I overestimated you!”
Lorna kept mocking Philip.
Philip simply chuckled. He did not explain nor saw the need to explain. Some things were not meant to be explained. Moreover, this matter was of great significance to Philip. However, at this moment, Philip suddenly saw a black figure flying behind Lorna.
Bang!
Philip immediately picked up his gun and killed the figure with one shot.
It was a black humanoid creature.
“You saved me once, and I saved you once. We’re even.”
After Philip finished speaking, he turned around and left. When he returned to the place where his team was on the lookout, a fierce battle seemed to have happened here. Several trees had been knocked down.
However, he wondered why he did not even hear a single sound in such a fierce battle!
With that thought in mind, Philip tapped on the walkie-talkie.
“Where are you guys?”
Hearing Philip’s voice, Leopard’s strained voice came from the walkie-talkie, “Boss, we’ve been dragged underground. Come and save us!”
Philip looked around and found a relatively hidden hole.
He promptly used the communicator to inform Cougar of the situation on his side and asked for immediate reinforcements. Then, he jumped into the hole.
Philip realized that it was a dark cave, which seemed to be a place where something lived.
“Boss, I’ll be dead if you don’t save me now!”
Philip saw Leopard not far away being subdued by an unknown exotic beast. Leopard was gnashing his teeth and fighting the beast’s huge jaws.
Seeing this scene, Philip immediately rushed to that creature as flames burst from his body.
Boom!
One punch sent the thing flying. Philip walked up to Leopard and helped him up.
“Where are Iris and Emily?”
Philip glanced at the beast that was shaking its head. He stood up again and asked Leopard.
Chapter 3234
Leopard grinned at Philip and said, “They’re over there. I completed my mission. I protected them!”
Philip nodded.
Looking at the two shivering on the side, Philip said, “Attack!”
Hearing Philip’s roar, Iris said to Philip, “No way, it won’t work. Our attack can only leave a small wound on its body. We can’t stop it at all!”
Emily also said anxiously, “My attack has no effect on it at all!”
Philip frowned. This seemed quite interesting.
Philip started observing the exotic beast, which looked like a large Tibetan Mastiff. Although it did not make a move, it had been staring at Philip the whole time.
Seeing this, Philip walked to the creature with a smile. The creature with black hair all over its body like a Tibetan Mastiff pounced at Philip.
Roar!
This roar was deafening!
Philip snorted coldly, and a sword suddenly appeared in his hand.
Caelum Sword!
However, to avoid garnering shock, Caelum Sword only appeared in Philip’s hand briefly before it disappeared in a flash again. Nevertheless, this brief moment was enough for Philip to disembowel the beast.
A ray of light was projected from the body of the beast on Philip’s chest, the mark of the snake.
The beast howled and fell to the ground, and everyone was stunned.
The other three did not expect a beast invulnerable to them to be taken down by Philip so easily.
Philip said to the three, “Okay, let’s go up!”
This place was not a problem for them. However, Leopard was exhausted, so Philip carried Leopard on his back.
As soon as they reached above ground, Philip saw the members of Cougar Squad around, but there was no sign of Cougar.
Philip was not concerned and merely glanced around. Then, he asked Emily and Iris to be on the lookout, while he took Leopard to rest.
However, the members of Cougar Squad who saw this scene were very dissatisfied with Philip’s nonchalant attitude.
One of them looked at Philip and asked, “You asked the commander for reinforcements but you refuse to say a word now. What’s the meaning of this?”
Philip glanced at him.
Philip clearly told Cougar that he had entered an underground cave, but these people just came here and looked around without even going down!
This was a little puzzling.
Seeing that Philip did not speak, the man continued, “What do you mean by keeping quiet? Do you think we came here to save you for nothing?”
At the other party’s repeated provocations, Philip asked, “Save me? Is that what you mean by standing outside the cave and watching? Why didn’t you enter?”
Chapter 3235
That man said grimly, “What do you mean by that? Are you saying that we didn’t save you on purpose?”
Philip snorted. By doing this, they forced themselves into a corner. If anything else happened after this, Philip would definitely not help the people of Cougar Squad again.
At first, Philip thought that they were just unhappy with him, but they would still take action at a critical moment. However, Philip realized now that he had overestimated them.
At this time, Cougar arrived. “Philip, what’s the matter? What happened?”
Philip shook his head and said, “It’s no big deal. Everything’s settled.”
After saying that, Philip did not even look at Cougar. Although Cougar knew that something was wrong, he did not know what was going on, so he could only pull someone to the side.
At this moment, Lorna came over with her people.
“Commander Yorkshire, I want to know if all your people have assembled. If you’re done, I think it’s time for us to head out.”
Although Lorna was talking to Cougar, her eyes were fixed on Philip.
Cougar said heartily, “We’re all prepared, just waiting to head out!”
Hearing that, Lorna said with a smile, “Okay then, please send your scout team ahead!”
The scout team was responsible for detecting dangers and finding the correct route for the group at large.
Cougar immediately selected two scout teams and said, “You two teams, follow Commander Finn’s scout team and head into the depths!”
Some people stepped forward from among Cougar Squad. They were the scout teams selected by Cougar. After that, Cougar never left Cougar Squad.
Philip and the others lagged behind everyone because of Leopard. Although Leopard looked indifferent, Philip knew that Leopard was physically exhausted.
However, when Lorna’s team and Cougar Squad walked forward, Philip noticed that someone was following the two teams from far behind.
Philip immediately thought of the person who subdued him just now.
‘Could it be him?’
As he thought about it, Philip saw more and more people behind. Although they were well hidden, Philip still discovered them.
Philip tapped his walkie-talkie lightly and said, “Perk up, everyone, there are people behind us!”
Hearing this, Leopard hesitated before asking, “Boss, should we inform the commander and the others?”
Philip shook his head. Even if he wanted Cougar Squad to avoid danger, it depended on the danger. In this instance, if he could take this opportunity to teach them a lesson, it might not be a bad thing.
Philip simply supported Leopard as if nothing had happened. However, before long, Philip saw one person in the team next to him, who was also lagging behind the larger group, whispering to the person next to him.
Chapter 3236
Philip knew that the other party had noticed something amiss, but they were also silent. Just like Philip, they started looking for cover.
In fact, Philip had used the communicator to notify Cougar while he was supporting Leopard.
His message only contained two words, ‘tails behind’.
But, Cougar did not reveal anything. He did not even turn his head around and simply walked ahead. Nonetheless, Philip noticed several people on the edge slowly leaving the larger group.
Not long after walking ahead, Philip saw a few people from Cougar Squad walking over with several people in tow. They were the people who left the team.
Seeing this scene, Philip instinctively felt that something was wrong because instead of the fear of being caught, these people had faint smiles on their faces.
Cougar walked up to those people and asked coldly, “Who are you, and why are you following us?”
Lorna walked over at this time too.
Her people were not as quick as Philip in detecting danger, so they were a step late. However, when they came over, they were shot down from the aircraft by the others, so they wanted to know the reason they were being followed too.
When Cougar was about to start the interrogation, Philip suddenly shouted, “Everyone, get away from them! Hurry up!”
The faces of the arrested people changed upon hearing Philip’s shout.
Cougar and the others were even more bewildered, so Philip added, “They have explosives on them!”
At this time, rays of light started flashing from those people.
Cougar was shocked at this scene and said, “Get away! It’s an electromagnetic bomb!”
Everyone scattered to the sides at the sound of this!
Although Philip and the others were far away, they still felt a flash in front of them and a buzzing sound in their ears.
When Philip recovered, he realized that all his equipment could no longer be used. That included the firearms he brought along.
It seemed that this electromagnetic bomb was not harmful to the human body.
After checking the rest of his team, Philip was relieved to see that they were fine. Then, he turned to the Cougar.
Although Cougar had warned everyone else just now, he did not move away. He held a long saber in his hand, and there were several cuts on the bodies of those people.
Looking at the situation, he must have killed those people just now.
