Chapter 2856
His mother left it to him? It was related to the secret vault of the Larson family?
Philip was puzzled as he stared at the starstone in his hand and fell into deep contemplation.
What was the starstone used for? Was it any different from the ebony stone that was used to produce the essence of life?
"Grandpa, is there a difference between this starstone and the ebony stone?" Philip asked.
The grandmaster thought about it and said, "Ebony stone? It can't be compared to the starstone. The ebony stone is just a special product of Cochly Mountain, an ore that metamorphosed due to the influence of the stargate. In fact, this product can also be found in the other two stargates. However, they don't have mining technology, so the ebony stone can only be supplied by our country. But we can't rule out that they might have the technology now."
At this point, the grandmaster seemed to remember something. He got up from the reclining chair, patted Philip, and said, "Sit here and wait for me."
With that said, the grandmaster walked into the backyard.
Philip sat in the yard with the palm-sized starstone in his hand. He held it above his head and looked at it while facing the sun. Under the sun, this starstone was somewhat transparent, and some things could vaguely be seen wandering in the stone!
'What the heck?!' Philip was shocked.
He looked at it carefully, and at the same time, activated his rule of insight. However, a powerful force shut out Philip's rule of insight. It was as if a strange power in this starstone was blocking out Philip's probing. Moreover, Philip felt a sudden burst of pain in his brain!
At this moment, the grandmaster walked out of the backyard. Seeing Philip's state, he smiled and said, "I forgot to tell you that if you don't have a certain level of strength, don't peek at the structure and material inside the starstone. It'll backfire on you."
Philip huffed and looked at the big box that the grandmaster carried with him.
"What's that?" Philip asked.
The grandmaster rummaged through the big box for a long time, took out the things one by one, and finally found what he was searching for. He said joyfully, "I found it!"
While saying that, the grandmaster took out something in a cloth bag. He opened the cloth bag and there was a book inside. There were also ancient characters on the cover that Philip could not recognize. The grandmaster flipped through the book, took out a letter from between the pages, and said, "Keep this properly. If you run into any problem in Mystic City, remember to hand this letter to a man named Cody Crane. He'll help you."
'Cody Crane?' Philip frowned and took the letter from the grandmaster.
There was a seal on the envelope which was still intact.
"Grandpa, who's Cody Crane? Does he have high status with the right to speak in Mystic City?" Philip asked.
