Mysterious Catastrophe - Chapter 372

[Chapter 371 Opening]

Tuesday, May 15th.

“10,000 pounds!”

“12,000 pounds!”

…

“12,000 pounds for the third time!”

boom!

“This ‘Green Banyan Priest Golden Crown’ from the Fabry Dynasty belongs to bidder No. 22!”

…

Faust’s Great Auction House.

The well-dressed upper class people gathered around each precious lot and lavished gold pounds.

“What a great atmosphere!”

At a certain round table, Liliat sighed with emotion.

“This is just an auction on the bright side. The real lively event is tonight…”

Tias whispered on the side.

Aaron was noncommittal. He was wearing a formal suit—the most basic requirement for entering the auction house. He was carefully examining the boxes and emergency passages.

In the scene, there are many Beyonders who do the same as him.

“You… are you going to use this place as a battlefield, do you first come to a field survey?”

Liliat watched this scene, and suddenly became a little worried about tonight’s auction: “But don’t do the ‘Podium Massacre’ again…”

“Don’t worry, this time, the kingdom and the three ancient sects will work together to maintain order…” Tias showed a mocking smile: “Also… those big men don’t have to come.”

Even so, Aaron doesn’t think there will be less thrill seekers among the nobles.

“All right……”

He looked at the lively auction scene and looked at the two attendants: “Are you ready for the auction at night?”

“The process is almost clear. The anonymous auction model is adopted, and every participant must wear a mask. The admission qualification needs to be reviewed – the verification of capital is more than 2,000 pounds!”

Liliat explained in a low voice: “I have already obtained the qualifications through the small circle of Beyonders in the Senglinghao Hotel. Just come directly at night, not in the name of the ‘Green Banyan Council’.”

‘Very well, it seems that Liliat is also cautious. ‘

Aaron nodded with satisfaction: “Who is the convener of that small circle?”

“The other party calls herself ‘Ms. Snake’… I don’t know what power she belongs to and the level of her original quality, but Tias thinks the other party is quite strong.”

Liliat added.

“It seems that this auction has attracted a lot of big names in the mysterious world.”

Aaron was thoughtful.

He looked around and suddenly got up: “Let’s go…”

Auctions during the day are really not interesting.

The three got up and left the venue in a low-key manner.

As he walked out of the door, Aaron saw that there were a few people who did the same thing as him.

It was a rare sunny day in Pulmouth in May, but in Aaron’s inspiration there seemed to be a terrifying depression lingering.

“A coming storm…”

He murmured and brought Liliat, the three of them back to the hotel together.

…

Time to night.

Above the street, one gas lamp after another came on, bringing a bright light.

The carriages were parked outside the Faust auction house, and the people who came were wearing masks, like VIPs attending a masquerade.

Although the atmosphere is not as warm as it is during the day, it has a slightly mysterious atmosphere.

At the entrance of the auction house, Percy, dressed in a black vest, white shirt, and a small bow tie, disguised as an ordinary waiter, looked at the guests who came in, and his mind was full of thoughts.

“They’re all wild Beyonders… When will our Bureau of Investigation also guarantee and provide protection for this kind of thing?”

“Tsk tsk… If I suddenly close the net, I don’t know how many big fish I can catch… Uh, it seems that a lot of friendly troops will be accidentally injured… The lady wearing the exclusive design of the Pulmouth fashion master, at first glance, it is from the big Aristocratic family. Hmm… There are also a few young people who are looking for excitement, and the curiosity in the eyes under the mask can’t be concealed…”

“Young, too young.”

Percy shook his head secretly, his masked face still showed a smile, and made a ‘please’ gesture to the guests.

“Wow!”

Bruce walked into the lobby of the auction house, looked at the dome like the night sky, and the candles suspended in mid-air, exclaiming in disbelief.

The organizers are here, and they don’t seem to mind showing off their supernatural powers at all!

Wearing a mask made of oak, he cautiously navigated the wide hall and found an empty spot.

After looking around, he found that in this dark auction, the organizer did not prepare a box, everyone was in the lobby and could see each other!

‘It’s always dangerous…but I’ve already been targeted by the ‘Mother of Nature’…’

Bruce has been haggard lately, and he has been tormented by the ravings of that dream.

After the examination of the doctor of ‘Gumeng’s Eye’, it was confirmed that this was not a sign of slight loss of control such as ‘auditory hallucinations’.

There’s nothing they can do about it!

As a last resort, Bruce can only start to save himself through various channels.

Although the babble might be to want him to recite the honorable name of that hidden existence, how dare Bruce?

Don’t pray to the unknown, it is common knowledge in the hidden world!

“Hopefully there is something in this auction that can help me…hope I have enough gold pounds to buy it…”

Bruce prayed silently.

At this time, he seemed to hear a sound – a bird call?

He turned his head and looked at a mysterious person passing by. The other person wore a plague doctor’s beak mask, and he didn’t look like a person who liked to be funny.

“Negative effects of extraordinary items?”

Anything can happen to an Extraordinary, and Bruce is not surprised.

…

“Bran, you dead bird, don’t expose me.”

William, who was wearing a beak mask, pressed his chest heavily.

“Master Bran is out of breath.”

A sentence sounded directly in his head, which seemed to be transmitted through the soul.

“All in all… I have offended a lot of people in Pulmouth, and part of it is because of you. Once you show up, I will definitely be recognized, so… be quiet for me!”

William threatened: “Otherwise, I will definitely throw you out first!”

“Understand understanding…”

Bran’s voice seemed to become a little sluggish: “Well… I’m just curious about the human masquerade… You know, as you are, you won’t be able to mix into the high society for a hundred years. Go to extravagant parties.”

“shut up!”

Seeing that there was an empty seat, William immediately sat down, ignoring the slightly surprised gazes around him.

…

Somewhere at the round table, Aaron and the others just filled the seats.

“It’s about to start.”

Liliat took out a gold-encrusted pocket watch, looked at it, and said with certainty.

At this time, three Beyonders dressed in costumes and wearing different crowns walked into the venue together and sat on the three special seats in the middle.
