In Room 7, there was a middle-aged man around forty with short, neatly kept hair, dressed in a black suit. His eyes sparkled with an indescribable glow.
Behind him stood another man and a woman. The man appeared quite scholarly, with hair covering half of his eyes and round-frad glasses perched on his nose, holding a book about human anatomy, which evoked the impression of a doctor.
They all hailed from Derman, a powerful nation that had dominated Europe several tis and nearly conquered the world.
"Adenna, why do you want to bid for Huaxia's Imperial Jade Seal? This item is aningless to us!" the woman said with a displeased expression. "Don't forget, our target this ti is that item!"
"I know," the man called Adenna replied, "I just can't stand that Huaxia boy's arrogance. Even though the tis are different now and they are becoming stronger, it seems they've forgotten that when our kingdom of Derman was contending for world dominance, they were still busy seeking redemption from their enslaved society!"
"Anna, it's alright, let Adenna have his fun," the bespectacled man interjected, "Otherwise, this trip would be far too boring."
"Yeah, this Huaxia person is indeed quite wealthy. I have no idea how he managed to mobilize that destroyer from England and even got Frankfurt to allow it, but to think he can do whatever he wants at this auction with just a destroyer is a bit far-fetched."
"Hahaha, such first world weapons can only intimidate ordinary people, they are useless against us," Adenna continued, "Even if they brought ten tis more, they couldn't keep us here. Just considering his arrogant deanor earlier, if he doesn't bleed, he won't think of taking the item back to Huaxia!"
"Aren't you afraid that this Huaxia person will drive up the price and then outmaneuver you?" the woman laughed.
"That's impossible. I know the people of Huaxia well. They value national honor above everything, and if the Imperial Jade Seal, an item of such significance, has co up this ti, they will do everything they can to secure it, even if ans selling the pots and pans."
...
"Mr. Zhang, ordinary firearms are very intimidating to common people, but they are utterly aningless against mutants of Level Three and above," Ye Yin told Zhang nglong. "With the protection of that Level Five mutant, the destroyer won't stop them."
"Isn't that why I have you!" Zhang nglong laughed.
Just now, Zhang nglong's credibility had been seriously challenged! He had barely finished speaking when soone imdiately called out a bid, essentially a slap in his face.
Laughter began to erge from the regular section below; so laughed at the ignorance of the people in Room 7— even if they managed to secure the Jade Seal, according to Zhang nglong's character, he certainly wouldn't let them go easily.
Of course, much of it was mocking Zhang nglong, and they were even curious to see if his words were just a bluff or if he ant business.
As for other exceptional individuals, they were rely enjoying the drama. The power disparity among them was not significant, most were aware of each other's presence, and so from the second world had even sparred or knew each other.
They naturally knew that the people from Derman dared to bid because they were utterly fearless; to them, Zhang nglong's intimidation was nothing!
But among these individuals, there was one peculiar person.
"Idiot, still daring to provoke him, do you really think he relies only on planes and battleships?" In another VIP room, a short-statured man showed a schadenfreude expression.
This man was naturally KaiBong's corporate president, Xinggong, who had been taught a lesson by Zhang nglong the previous night.
Last night, Ye Yin did not kill that ninja from Kaibong; he genuinely stuffed his ass into a fissure in the bottom of the diterranean.
By relying on his strong survival and recovery abilities, Mr. Shen Yuan finally struggled out of the crack in the middle of the night, returning to his room in the Dream Palace with a body covered in wounds and a broken arm.
Mr. Shen Yuan had told the Dream Palace that this was the most terrifying person he had encountered so far, even among the few in the Kaibong nation known as "Divine Ninjas," none had made him feel so powerless.
The individuals from the second world who ca to the auction this ti, had a strength equivalent to only Level Five or perhaps Level Six mutants at most.
Of course, it wasn't because these nations only had individuals of such abilities; in their own countries, there were people far more powerful than these.
In every nation, the definition of these types of humans varied: in Kaibong, they were known as ninjas; in Arica, so called them mutants, while others referred to them as superhumans; in so European countries, they even used titles such as Viscount and Earl to classify them.
However, to facilitate differentiation, their power levels were categorized from Level One to Level Nine, asured using units from an energy detector.
According to the rules of the second world, second-world humans with an energy level above Level Seven are not allowed to enter any country's interior without permission; if they really want to fight, it must be in an unclaid public area. Thus, the strongest present here were only those second-world humans with an energy level of Level Six.
In their Kaibong, a "Divine Ninja" was soone who had surpassed the mighty existence of Level Nine energy units; such individuals, powerful enough to only be looked up to, represented the nation's most valuable strength and talent!
He believed that the person Zhang nglong had brought with him definitely possessed strength above the Level Nine energy units! Last night, that Huaxia person seed like he was rely playing with him—from the mont he noticed his presence to the mont he was subdued, it all happened in an instant!
Although he didn't know why Zhang nglong had such a person by his side, let alone why his n dared to brazenly tear up the second-world treaty, but with such a person next to Zhang nglong, anyone who provoked him was probably going to die miserably!
"Stupid and arrogant people from Derman!" the Dream Palace muttered to himself. This ti, if they wanted to take that item back, there was almost no hope.
...
"Miss Emma, it is ti to ask for bids!" Adenna said in a haughty tone.
Only then did Emma suddenly rember her actual job.
"Five million euros for the first ti. Is there anyone else who would like to raise the bid?" Emma's expression turned towards the VIP room where Zhang nglong was seated.
"Five million euros for the second ti!"
"Hehehe!" As Emma called for bids the second ti, a burst of laughter ca from VIP room number 7, "If Mr. Zhang doesn't continue to bid, this Imperial Jade Seal will belong to , and I look forward to seeing if Mr. Zhang's naval forces can really trap
then!"
"Old Zhang, that bastard is provoking you! Get him!" Wang Ling said, teeth itching with anger.
"I know," Zhang nglong was surprisingly not angry, "but I've suddenly changed my mind. Now, I plan to use the thod of a civilized person."
"Ah? The thod of a civilized person? What do you an?" Wang Ling asked, puzzled.
"The thod of a civilized person, that is to overpower him with money!" Zhang nglong declared, "As long as he can't produce the money when it's ti to pay, then he won't be taking the item away!"
