Chapter 2882
Everyone exchanged a glance.
Who would look for Philip here?
He had just reached Mystic City and knew no one. Could it be...
Philip got up, walked out of the room, and came to the lobby.
A group of people stood in the lobby, and six bodyguards surrounded a man in elegant clothes. The man looked very handsome and stood with his hands behind his back as if he was looking at something.
Seeing Philip walking downstairs, the man hurriedly smiled and said, "Young Patriarch Clarke, it's been a while. I didn't expect you to be in this hotel."
Philip looked at the man and said with a smile, "Moses Dunley, why are you here?"
Moses chuckled and invited Philip to take a seat. The two sat at the table, and the guards stood around with their backs to them, guarding them closely.
Moses ordered tea and said with a smile, "Young Patriarch Clarke, since you're here, of course, I can come here too. It's no secret that the treasure of the ancient sage has appeared in Mystic City. Not only me but nearly all the major families are here, including many powerful organizations..."
"Mystic City is in a mess right now! Many major families and forces have begun to work together. Under such circumstances, you can still stay here calmly. Aren't you worried?
Philip crossed his arms, looked at Moses indifferently, and said, "I have nothing to worry about. As for you, if you have something to say, just say it."
Moses chuckled and said, "As expected of Young Patriarch Clarke. It seems that you've already guessed my intention."
Philip said, "You have it all written on your face. How could I not guess?"

Moses smiled embarrassedly and said, "I'm here to work with you. Now that all the major forces and families are working together to obtain the treasures of the ancient sage, if we don't work together, it'll be difficult to fight against them."
Philip frowned before he nodded and said, "You have a point, but why me?"
Moses said with a smile, "This is fate. I think we're similar in some aspects. Besides, I don't know many people here."
"Don't make yourself seem so pathetic. I know the strength of the Dunley family in Charbury," Philip said.
Moses chuckled without explaining and asked, "What do you think?"
Philip thought for a long while before he said, "We can cooperate, but I have one condition."
"Do tell." Moses' face was full of smiles, and there was joy in his eyes.
"I need to know some information about Mystic City that you have on hand and all the forces that entered Mystic City that you know of," Philip said.
Moses nodded, gestured to the men behind him to hand over a tablet computer, and said, "I have it all ready."
Philip was a little surprised and said, "You're well prepared."
Moses laughed and said, "I did it before coming over. You came here in a hurry, so you probably don't know many things. Thus, I prepared some things in advance."
