Starting With 3 S-Class Talents-Chapter 581 - Domineering Bidding, Overwhelming Everyone Present
Chapter 581: Domineering Bidding, Overwhelming Everyone Present
Translator: EndlessFantasy Translation Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation
When everyone heard the creature mention Moon Association, the auction hall fell into dead silence once again. Everyone turned to look at the source of the voice, their eyes filled with awe and fear.
The Moon Association was a super association that dominated dozens of worlds around them. Its influence was on par with the Wanderers Association. Although it was not as powerful as a race with top-tier talent like the Star Race, they were still far superior to the small associations that could only hide in a small world like the Meteor Association.
Moreover, unlike the Wanderers Association, the Moon Association was a highly centralized association. All of its members were loyal to the association to the death and would only listen to the orders of their president.
As the Moon Association was filled with experts, they usually obtain their resources through plundering. They would always make plans to plunder resources!
They would choose a world as their target in advance, and then through various means, divide, weaken, and massacre the races within. After that, they would plunder all the resources they needed, wherever they went. It was as if the end of the world had arrived. It was a terrifying sight to behold!
The Inn had always been bound by the three legendary iron laws. Therefore, very few members from the Moon Association had set foot there. However, on this particular day, members of the Moon Association had shown up at the Inn and even participated in the auction. Everyone could not help but think of the purpose for them showing up at the Inn. Was the Moon Association planning to make a move at the Inn?
After all, the three iron laws had only been spread by word of mouth over the years but they had never been proven to be true. The always greedy and violent Moon Association would definitely not be able to suppress their greed!
When Hans heard that the Moon Association had arrived, he could not help but walk up the auction stage immediately. He looked down at a corner of the hall.
He saw a figure with eight eyes, three ears on each side of his head, and an ugly mouthpart on the bottom half of his face. His body was covered in the carapace, and he was silently looking up at the observation window of the VIP lounge.
“Ghost Bug Race!”
Hans let out a sigh and immediately bowed. Although he did not know the identity of the creature in front of him, he knew that the current president of the Moon Association was a member of the Ghost Bug Race, so he did not dare to offend the creature in front of him.
Hans said in a well-mannered manner, “I didn’t know that another distinguished guest had come. It’s the fault of the Star Race! I wonder what your relationship with the president of the Moon Association is?”
The ghost bug slowly shifted his gaze to Hans and said in a proud tone, “I am Todd’s son, the future heir of the Moon Association, Adrian!”
As soon as he said this, the entire place was in an uproar. Some creatures even got up and left in a hurry.
The Moon Association was famous for its cruelty and brutality, and the Ghost Bug Race was even more famous for its narrow-mindedness and love of holding grudges. Once they set their eyes on someone, even if that creature did not die, he or she would still lose a layer of skin!
Therefore, the majority of the creatures made the wise decision to immediately leave the auction. That way, they would not have to interact with anyone there or participate in anything that happened next. This was the best way for them to stay out of whatever was happening.
As for the legendary whereabouts of the dragon egg and the opportunity to befriend a dragon, those things did not seem that important anymore!
Hans could only force a smile and say, “So it’s the son of President Todd. How disrespectful of us! Quickly, please take a seat in the VIP area. Otherwise, if word gets out, your father will blame us, the Star Race, for not understanding the rules!”
Adrian did not refuse at all. He swaggered out of the crowd and sat at the VIP area under the auction stage. He sat in the booth next to Randall.
Before taking his seat, Adrian put aside his arrogance and nodded slightly at Randall to show respect.
Whether it was the members of the Moon Association or the ghost bugs, they were all vulnerable in front of the powerful Dragon Race. Therefore, Adrian did not dare to show any arrogance in front of Randall. He even wanted to take the initiative to befriend this powerful Dragon Race for his father and the Moon Association!
Randall glanced at Adrian indifferently. He did not show any interest toward his goodwill. Instead, he silently turned his head and glanced at the hall behind him. He then withdrew his gaze and continued to look at the auction stage silently.
Adrian saw that Randall did not look at him directly, nor did he have the slightest interest in the Black Tortoise’s heart. He made up his mind that he would buy the Black Tortoise’s heart in front of Randall as he wanted to show off the strength of the Ghost Bug Race and the Moon Association. He wanted to gain recognition of the Dragon Race!
If he could befriend a dragon and become a material merchant for the Dragon Race, then the status and strength of the Moon Association would increase by another level!
Adrian looked at Hans and urged impatiently, “The price of the heart of the Black Tortoise Race is now nine million red crystals. If no one is going to contest, should we announce its ownership?”
Hans felt helpless. This auction was originally prepared for Vincent. He did not expect that Adrian would suddenly appear along the way, making the situation even more complicated.
If Vincent was afraid of the strength of the Moon Association and took the initiative to avoid Adrian, then the Star Race would not be able to obtain the dragon egg in Vincent’s hands.
However, Hans knew that he should lower his expectations, because at the Inn, it was reasonable for anyone to be afraid of the Moon Association!
Hans raised his hand to wipe the cold sweat from his forehead. He said helplessly, “If no one continues to bid, then this Black Tortoise’s heart will belong to….”
“18 million red crystals!”
Before Hans could finish his sentence, Vincent shouted from the VIP lounge upstairs. His voice was emotionless and he doubled the bid price once again. Everyone could sense the arrogance of the individual upstairs.
Hans looked up at the VIP lounge with excitement. He did not expect Vincent to have the courage to bid against Adrian. However, he suddenly remembered that Vincent had just arrived at the Inn. It was understandable that he had not heard of the terror of the Moon Association and the Ghost Bug Race!
As for whether Vincent offended Adrian because of this bid, Hans was not worried at all. As long as the auction ended successfully, he would have a reason to get the dragon egg from Vincent. He could then tie Vincent up and deliver him to Adrian. That way, he and the Star Race would be able to stay out of trouble!
Hans raised his voice and asked the crowd below the stage, “The distinguished guest upstairs bids 18 million red crystals. I wonder if anyone wants to continue bidding?”
18 million was an astronomical figure. All the small and medium-sized associations at the Inn probably could not afford such a large sum. Therefore, no one dared to continue bidding with the wealthy and mysterious man upstairs.
Hans quickly announced, “The first auction is over. The Black Tortoise’s heart is finally sold to the distinguished guest upstairs for 18,000,000 red crystals!”
