Translator: Nyoi-Bo Studio Editor: Nyoi-Bo Studio
At this moment, a middle-aged man sitting in the front row had a very serious expression on his face as he focused his attention on the auction item in front of him.
The middle-aged man’s name was Brod. He was well-known in the Stark family and had a high status in New York. He was not easily provoked by any forces.
At this moment, Brod saw the auctioneer shouting the price. He smiled and said, “$200,000!”
After the female auctioneer heard the bid, a professional smile appeared on her face. She immediately said, “$200,000! Is there anyone who wants to raise the bid?”
As she spoke, the female auctioneer looked around and her eyes fell on the front row once again.
“I offer $300,000!” Just as the auctioneer finished speaking, another middle-aged man in the front row spoke.
“I’m sorry, Brod. Although we have business contacts, but it’s my wife’s birthday so I can’t let you have it!”
“It’s alright, Gray. Business is business. As long as the bid is high enough, you can take this piece of Amber!” Brod smiled to Gray.
At this moment, Lin Neng, who was watching the bidding, suddenly heard the system’s voice in his mind.
“Ding Dong, basic material for SS-rank evolution detected!”
“Host, please get it as soon as possible!”
Initially, Lin Neng did not plan to participate in this auction. He only planned to use the power of the auction to leave this place safely. However, the system’s voice disrupted Lin Neng’s original plan.
“I offer $500,000!” Lin Neng’s hoarse voice sounded from a corner of the auction.
“Oh! There’s actually someone who dares to bid against the two great clans!”
“How rare!”
“Hmph, I think this person may have lived enough!”
“It’s actually him! Since you want it so much, then I won’t be friendly!” A young man sitting in the middle of the front row muttered.
“Peter, raise the price to $1 million!”
“Young master…”
Peter was still wanting to persuade him, but when he saw the young man’s murderous gaze, he didn’t say anything more.
Once again, the price was doubled. This made everyone in the hall very happy.
One by one, they cheered and clapped their hands. The noisy environment suddenly became lively.
“The young master of the Perry family is offering $1 million!”
“Well done, Young Master Perry!”
“Awesome!”
“This is how imposing a reputable family should be!”
“Good! Good! Good!”
Many people started to cheer and clap. At this point of time, the vanity of the young master of the Perry family was unprecedentedly satisfied.
“$1.5 million!”
Before everyone could regain their consciousness, Lin Neng began to bid again.
Boom!
“How dare this person!”
“He is actually bidding against the three great families. Is he really not afraid to die?”
“Hmph! He’s just a clown!”
“Young Master Perry, go, go, go, crush him!”
At this moment, the entire crowd was once again in an uproar.
It had been a long time since everyone had seen such a lively battle of wealth. Even if it wasn’t them, their blood was still boiling with excitement.
For a moment, the entire hall was filled with cheers. The crowd didn’t mind watching the bidding as they forced the Perry family to continue to bid.
Just as the young master of the Perry family was about to continue bidding, Peter extended his hand and stopped him. “Young master, please look at the bigger picture!”
Seeing Peter’s unyielding stance, the young master remembered the fear of being dominated by his father when he was a child, and stopped bidding.
“This gentleman offers $1.5 million. Is there anyone else who wants to raise the bid?” The female auctioneer’s charming voice could be heard again.
“Alright, I announce that this auction item will be taken by this gentleman!” The female auctioneer waited for a while. Seeing that no one else wanted to raise the bid, she knocked the small hammer in her hand and announced the ownership.
A few hours later, the auction finally ended.
Lin Neng paid and left the auction with the amber.
However, just as he left the range of Lahn Tavern, a large hand blocked Lin Neng’s way.
“The young master said that he wants your life!”
As soon as the voice faded, the large hand that blocked in front of Lin Neng instantly transformed into a fist and struck towards Lin Neng.
Just when Peter thought that he would be able to kill Lin Neng with one strike, Lin Neng suddenly disappeared.
Peter was shocked and quickly put on a defensive stance, looking around vigilantly.
But before he could notice Lin Neng, a piercing pain hit him and he shouted in pain.
Before he lost his consciousness, he seemed to only see a crow flying in the direction of his young master.
Lin Neng spotted a Lincoln car on the roadside way before his transformation into a crow. He was sure that it was the young man’s car.
After a short while, Lin Neng flew to the top of the Lincoln car. He muttered in his heart, “Clone No. 6 – black-headed bulldog ant.”.
Lin Neng, who had transformed into a black-headed bulldog ant, entered the car through the gaps between the Lincoln car.
Looking at the young master of the Perry family in front of him, Lin Neng instinctively felt a surge of anger.
Soon, everyone in the car was dead.
And before the young master of the Perry family died, he seemed to have heard a sentence, “How can a person like you change? Only death!”.
It was a silent night with no one around, only a grey crow slowly flying in the night sky.
