Chapter 110 The Humiliation of One Dollar
Chapter 110 The Humiliation of One Dollar
Dragon Mountain's name was from its shape. It winded in the mountains like a dragon.
Zackary had attended the underground auction many times before, so he had vaguely guessed what
the place would be. Last night, he had told Sean that it must be Dragon Mountain.
Yes, it was a guess!
All the windows of the Benz cars were specially altered by the host. Sitting in the car, they couldn't see
the scene outside at all. They were almost blind, so they could only guess by their senses.
Even the front windshield glass was black.
No one could see through it, but the driver wore special glasses.
This was also the reason why the host sent special cars to pick them up.
Maybe someone would get out of the car by force.
Someone would hijack the driver.
And someone would ask his men to follow them.
According to Zackary, almost everyone who had tried any method to do some things like these had
been killed.
There was no exception!
Many people had died, and it was shocking enough to scare the others. Naturally, no one dared to try
them again.
It was just because of this that the host had always maintained a special sense of mystery in the eyes
of the world, which made people feel awed, but difficult to get any information.
Sean was sitting in the back seat of a black Benz car. Out of curiosity, he tried to release dark energy to
investigate the situation outside.
But he was shocked to find that the black glass could not only block the sight, but also the dark energy!
In other words, Sean's dark energy couldn't get out of the car at all!
"Mr. Mason, please behave yourself."
The driver suddenly reminded Sean without looking back. Apparently, he noticed Sean's intention.
What's more, Sean got on a random car before, but the driver seemed to know his name.
Sean smiled awkwardly and nodded, "I'm sorry."
The host had such a strong background, and the purpose of Sean's trip was to get the Ladies Star
Grass. Naturally, he would not be so stupid to make trouble and offend the host.
Half an hour later, the black Benz car slowly stopped.
The driver said, "Mr. Mason, thank you for your cooperation. Please get off the car."
They had arrived?
Sean's heart skipped a beat. Without hesitation, he opened the door and got off. Outside the door, a
young man in a suit was waiting for him.
"Mr. Mason, this way, please."
The young man also knew Sean's name. He reached out his hand and gave a hint.
"Okay!"
Sean looked around and found that it was a very long underground passage. Even in the daytime, the
lights were on both sides of the passage. More than 100 black cars stopped in a line, and all the
billionaires got out of the cars and followed the people who came to receive them in order.
If Sean's guess was right, he should be in the middle of Dragon Mountain now!
In other words, the host had hollowed out a mountain!
There was a so-called underground auction house in the mountain!
They walked along the passage for about ten minutes before a huge iron door appeared in front of
them. With a loud creak, the iron door slowly opened.
Suddenly, a strong light shone into the passage from behind the iron door.
Someone was in charge of the security check-in in front of the iron gate.
He took all the phones and electronic equipment away.
Moreover, there were rows of masks on the iron gate. There were various kinds of masks. Some of the
billionaires walking in front of Sean took them, while some didn't.
Zackary had explained this to Sean in advance.
After all, the items at the auction were very precious. There must be more than one person who wanted
to buy the same item, and only one of them could get it with the highest bid.
What if the winner was recognized and robbed after the auction?
That was exactly what Sean was thinking, not to mention others! He would buy it, and if he failed, he
would rob it from the buyer!
So, the masks were used to cover the buyers' real identities!
This made Sean feel a little annoyed. The host was too considerate. Phyllis didn't have much time. If
Ladies Star Grass was bought by someone else, it would be hard for Sean to find the buyer in a short
time without knowing the identity of the buyer!
Then he had to buy it with money!
With a lot of money!
When it was Sean's turn, Sean glanced at the strange masks, picked up one of them, and put it on.
Then he strode into the auction house through the iron gate.
Sean had chosen a wolf mask!
It matched his identity as the General Wolf of the North.
He also chose to wear a mask. Now the only way for him to get the item was to buy it with money. If he
had not enough money in the bidding, he might have to use the supreme black card!
If he was forced to do that, Sean didn't want others to recognize him.
"Sean!"
Zackary walked in the front and saw Sean come in. He gave him a hint and said, "The special area for
10 billion is in the front row. I'll sit there. If you need my help later, I'll transfer the extra 10 billion to
you."
"Okay!"
Sean nodded and walked past Zackary.
The underground auction house was luxuriously built, covering an area of thousands of square meters.
It was as magnificent as a castle. A huge screen was inlaid on the wall, and in front of the screen was a
T shape exhibition stand.
Around the exhibition stand, there were hundreds of seats.
In front of each seat, there was a machine that was a little shorter than a human. Zackary had specially
told Sean about this machine before coming here.
The machine had two main functions.
First, bidding!
After the auction started, the information about the auction items would appear on the screen of each
machine. The bidders could raise the price with the machines at will. In thirty seconds, if no one
continued to raise the price, it meant that the one who had the highest bid would get the item.
Second, transferring money!
These machines had a function similar to the ATM in a bank. If the money in the verified card was not
enough, the bidders could apply for transfer on the spot and continue to bid with higher prices!
This process was much more convenient than that of ordinary auctions.
Sean was verified with Owen's bank card. There were only 3 billion on the card, so he was arranged in
the special area for 3 billion, which was in the back.
On the way to his seat, Sean saw several familiar faces.
For example, Luna, like Zackary, sat in the special area for 10 billion in the front row and didn't wear a
mask. After all, no one dared to rob the items bought by the Porter family in the capital city.
And Finn and those billionaires...
Their faces were still a little red and swollen. They had masks in their hands but didn't wear them at
first. When they saw Sean, they all wore them, as if they were afraid of attracting Sean's attention.
Sean went to the special area for 3 billion and randomly picked a seat.
More than 100 billionaires entered the hall one after another. After all of them took their seats, there
were only four minutes before ten o'clock. The huge iron door of the auction house slowly closed,
completely isolating the inside world from the outside world.
At ten o'clock!
The huge screen in front of the T shape stand was suddenly turned on. An illusory figure appeared on
the screen like those hacker organizations did to prevent their identities from being exposed after
intruding into people's computers.
It looked mysterious.
"Welcome to the annual auction..."
About five minutes later, the welcome speech was finished and the phantom on the huge screen
disappeared. Then a picture and related introduction of the first auction item appeared.
It was named the Sacred Sword!
It was made of cold iron. It was said that it was a mysterious weapon used by a master at Complete in
Dark Energy. After years of use, it was still sharp and spotless.
The base price was five hundred million dollars!
For ordinary people, this kind of weapon was actually useless and could only be collected. But for
masters, with the help of the awesome weapons, they would be more powerful in the battles.
The rich families all had masters in their families, so the Sacred Sword immediately caused quite a stir
on the scene.
But Sean was not interested.
He had been using the Wolf's Massacre for many years. He had fought on the battlefield and killed
countless enemies with it. It was a great weapon. Moreover, after he killed Reid, he also got Reid's
weapon, the Mace.
A great weapon? Sean didn't need it!
A moment later, the bidding began. The huge screen changed into the bidding interface. Under the
picture of the Sacred Sword, a row of numbers appeared, which was the updated bidding price in real-
time.
Beside them were the machine numbers of the bidders and the countdown time.
Every time the bidding price was raised, the countdown would start from thirty seconds. If the price
didn't change, it meant that the bidding was over.
Five hundred million! Six hundred million! Eight hundred million! One billion...
The hall was unusually quiet, and almost no one spoke. However, the bidding price on the huge screen
was constantly changing, with hundreds of millions of dollars rising.
In the eyes of the rich, money was just the cold number!
Two billion!
When the bidding price reached two billion, the bidding finally paused for more than ten seconds. This
price was basically in line with the actual value of the Sacred Sword.
It would be a waste of money if someone spent more money! Exclusive content © by Nô(v)el/Dr/ama.Org.
It was a coincidence that the bidder who offered a price of two billion with machine number 125 was
just sitting in the special area for three billion, where Sean was sitting. Sean couldn't help but turn his
head and take a look. It was a strange middle-aged man without a mask.
Seeing that the bidding price had stopped and the thirty-second countdown time was almost over, the
middle-aged man clenched his fists and gritted his teeth, his face full of excitement.
Ten, nine, eight...
Thirty!
When there were only three seconds left, the time suddenly became thirty seconds again!
The bidding price had been raised!
In an instant, everyone was surprised. They all looked at the huge screen and the refreshed bidding
price. But after seeing it, the quiet bidding scene suddenly became noisy.
It was...
It was ridiculous!
Two billion and one dollar!
The bidding price was set by the bidders at will. There was no limit. However, those who could
participate in the auction were all billionaires, and few people would raise the price by less than a
million.
It was even rare to raise the price by only one million!
Let alone just one dollar!
This was simply an undisguised humiliation in public!
Machine number 6!
Exclaiming, everyone moved their eyes from the huge screen at the same time and looked at the
person on machine No. 6.
Especially the middle-aged man who had just offered two billion. His eyes were wide open with anger,
and his face was red. He even wanted to kill that guy who added one dollar!
Out of curiosity, Sean also turned to look at the person who was using machine No. 6...
