Chapter 1354: Interlude

During the 30-minute break, Zhang Heng stood up to stretch his body. However, he did not go to the side to get any food or drinks. He just walked around the corridor and returned to his seat, the uncle on his left, who was in a hurry, was the first to rush out to make a phone call as soon as the first round of bidding ended.

Previously, Zhang Heng could still hear him cursing and swearing in the corridor. It seemed like a project was not going well. Initially, they had agreed that the project would be under the name of some company, but who would have thought that after winning the bid, the other side would suddenly turn hostile, a project worth hundreds of millions of dollars had gone down the drain just like that. Anyone else would have been in hot water.

On the other hand, the sailor girl on the right was still there. When she saw Zhang Heng sit down, she grabbed a bubble gum from her pocket and handed it to him. She asked, “Ultraman, do you want some?”

“No, thanks.”Zhang Heng waved his hand.

The girl in the sailor suit did not force him. She tore open the packaging and threw the bubble gum into her mouth. Then, she asked, “Why did you buy that Crystal?”

“The same reason as everyone else.”

The Girl in the sailor suit pouted and pointed at the group of people in front of the snack table, “They bought the [ immune crystal ] to prevent the Lord of Lalaiya’s mental attack. After all, those who have played in a group before know what to do, but...”she changed the topic, “This time, the situation is different. If that thing escapes, even three rounds of mental immunity won’t save it.”

“What About You? Why did you come to this auction?”

“The reason I bought this thing is different. I have an enemy whose ability is spirit-based. I came to bid on this thing to deal with her.”

“Then I wish you good luck.”Zhang Heng had intended to end the conversation with this sentence, but the sailor girl seemed to be interested in him. After a short pause, she continued to ask, “Are you confident in your bid?”

“How do I put this? This kind of half-black box bidding depends not only on your own bid, but also on others’bids.”

“That’s true. Let me put it another way. Are you confident that your bid will pass the first round?”

Zhang Heng did not answer. Instead, he asked, “What About You?”

“I can’t pass,”the sailor answered quickly, and she seemed to be very self-aware, “My three d-rank items are all hard-earned. Basically, they’re the least valuable items. I only used them to exchange for a ticket to the auction. If I can pass the first round, it would be a miracle.”

“That would be such a pity.”

“No, that’s why I’m Looking for a partner,”the sailor said, “Let me get this straight. If you have the confidence to make it through the first round, but you don’t have the confidence to make it through the last round, why don’t you try cooperating with me? I’ll add the three d-rank items I brought with me to your bid when necessary. In return, you just have to let me use that item once. I said that I want that item to deal with a sworn enemy, so one use is enough for me. In that case, you only have two uses left.”

Zhang Heng did not reject the offer immediately. Instead, he said, “I’ll consider it.”

“Considering is not a good answer for me.”The sailor was not satisfied. She chewed on her bubble gum and said, “Even though I came to you first, it doesn’t mean that I have to work with you.”

“In the same way, even if I want to find a partner, I don’t necessarily have to look for you.”

“Others won’t be like me, who only need to use it once,”the sailor scoffed. “Of course you can find another partner, but the price you have to pay is huge.”

“It doesn’t matter, I have plenty of money,”Zhang Heng said calmly.

“...”

This time, the sailor choked on her words. From then on, she finally stopped coming to talk to Zhang Heng.

Thirty minutes passed quickly, and the seller in the next room had selected ten bids that he was satisfied with. Zhang Heng’s [ White Horse’s crown ] was among them.

“The second round of bidding begins now. Those who wish to re-bid can re-bid.”The auctioneer returned to the stage.

Therefore, a few of the buyers re-entered the bids on their ipads and gave the corresponding items to Fu Lou for safekeeping. There were also some who did not make a move, other than those who successfully passed the first round of bidding, others decided to give up because the price exceeded their expectations.

After all, although soul props are rare, and is now the most popular props, but [ immunity crystal ] is only D grade quality, the price is too outrageous and there is no need to force.

In about ten minutes, the buyer had completed the second round of bidding, followed by the seller’s selection time. This time, the auctioneer did not leave, however, the man on Zhang Heng’s left who had been hacked earlier went out to make a phone call. The person who had bumped into him earlier stood up and went to pick up some fruits from the snack bar.

Zhang Heng did not want to communicate with the others anymore, so he closed his eyes.

Time passed by slowly. Fifteen minutes later, the noisy auction room quieted down again because the second round of bidding was also out, zhang Heng and his [ crown of the white horse ] remained on the list.

Giving everyone some time to digest the results, the auctioneer stood up from the stage again. “Next up is the third round of bidding. However, before this round of bidding begins, I have something else to announce.”

Many of the people who had been prepared to bid frowned when they heard this. They did not know what kind of tricks Fu Lou had up his sleeves and why he was interspersed with other programs at the auction.

The auctioneer, however, did not seem to notice the confusion on everyone’s faces, “As a chamber of Commerce, we have always served the players in a neutral manner. Since its establishment, we have always been committed to protecting the safety and privacy of our customers. In our eyes, every customer is equal... we are saying this to tell everyone that what is going to happen next is the personal actions of a few of our employees. This has nothing to do with the company. Please don’t misunderstand.”

Just as he finished his last sentence, while most of the buyers were still in a daze, a few people around Zhang Heng started to move. The man who had been worrying about the project on the phone earlier was the first to make a move, he pulled out a dagger from god-knows-where and stabbed it at Zhang Heng!

Following closely behind was the man that Zhang Heng had bumped into in the bathroom earlier. The latter was not close to the man who was holding the dagger, but his movements were faster than his companion’s. Even though he had made a move later, he had almost arrived with his companion!
