The auction soon began. The first item was the Heart of the Ocean.
After all, the auction needed a good start. The good items were placed at the front or the back.
The auctioneer didn't say anything on the stage. They were all wealthy people and didn't need the auctioneer to explain anything. It was a waste of everyone's time.
"The first item to be auctioned is the Heart of the Ocean with a long history but it's not the one on the Titanic. Don't be scared."
Laughter came from the auction area.
Everyone knew that the present diamond "Hope" weighs 45.52 Carats and had an extremely rare dark blue color. It is said that not only is it beautiful blue but it also seems to emit a vicious glow. This may be because, in its fog-like history, it is filled with peculiar and tragic experiences. It always brings an irresistible nightmare to its owner. Who would dare to buy it?
"The starting price is 100 million. Everyone, let's see who will possess such a precious item today."
Soon, the numbers on the monitor started rolling.
150 million. The number started to slow down and gradually froze.
A fat man with a large gem in his hand hugged his female companion and said intimately.
"Baby, this gem will soon be yours."
His female companion was also very happy and said.
"Hubby, are you really willing to buy it for me? I like you so much!"
As he said that, she hugged the man and gave him a kiss. The fat man was also very happy. He had chased this woman for the sake of kissing her. When he thought of this, the man's lower body felt hot. He wished he could have a big fight with this woman right here.
Suddenly, the number that should have been fixed began to roll. When it reached 160 million, the fat man's expression started to turn ugly. He had brought 300 million this time not only for this treasure but also for an item that he had to obtain. If it was less than 150 million, he might not be able to obtain it. This matter was personally instructed by the Lord and he could not afford to lose it.
The fat man had no choice but to raise the bid by another one million. However, as soon as he raised the bid, someone else followed suit. This made him a little hesitant but the woman beside him kept saying good things, making him a little irritated. Then, he thought about how terrifying the Lord was.
He immediately stopped what he was doing. He knew that if he didn't complete the mission given by that person, he would die an ugly death. Although this woman was very important, it was nothing compared to his life.
Weiss saw that the number had stopped at 160 million and nodded with satisfaction. It didn't exceed his own budget, so he could still have 90 million left and he could also get one or two items.
The woman in red was a bit surprised. Did Weiss come to the auction for the Heart of the Ocean?
However, Weiss didn't know what that woman was thinking, so he continued to look at the auction items.
The auctioneer continued to shout out the items for auction. The Qing Dynasty's blue and white porcelain, ancient relics and even the armor from the Crusade were all useless items in Weiss's eyes.
It wasn't until the auctioneer came on stage with a golden scepter that Weiss suddenly realized.
[Pharaoh's Scepter: The scepter that contains mysterious power seems to be the key to opening a certain place.]
Weiss knew that he could not let this thing go.
"This item is from the Pharaoh's mausoleum in ancient Egypt. I don't know its specific use but since it's placed in an important location in the mausoleum, the starting price is 20 million."
Weiss started to bid but the price soon exceeded fifty million. Weiss was ruthless and the price quickly reached sixty million. Weiss knew that this item was his.
As expected, after 60 million, no one continued bidding. After all, it was simply a waste of money to bid for an unknown scepter at such a high price. No one's money came from nothing.
Although there were a few auction items that amazed Weiss, he still didn't make a move. After all, he didn't have a lot of money. Weiss only bid for one fragment.
There was no notification for the fragment from the system but Weiss felt that it was very nice and took a picture of it.
It was almost time for the last item to be auctioned. Weiss knew that this probably had nothing to do with him. With less than 30 Million Gold Coins, Weiss felt heartache.
It turned out that when he was poor, he did not think much of it. Now that he was rich, he felt that he was spending money like water.
The auctioneer quickly sent four people to bring a huge box covered in complicated patterns onto the auction stage with excited expressions. One had to know that he could take part of the profits from the auction. In other words, the higher the value of the items auctioned, the more money he would get.
"Everyone, I believe you have all heard of King Arthur's story. Now, his sword, the Sword in the Stone, has been found under a church. You must know how valuable it is for someone to find a Legendary Sword."
Below the auction stage, everyone cried out in surprise. Weiss immediately stood up because he had seen the Sword in the Stone's evaluation. Then, seeing that everyone was looking at him, he blushed and sat down.
[Sword in the Stone: A famous sword from the legends of England. According to legend, it appeared when the knight received the notice from the archbishop to come to the church in London for a meeting. The first time it appeared in a church was on Christmas Eve. Just as people finished confessing, they raised their heads and saw a sword stabbed into a square stone. It contained part of the fate of the country of England and was indestructible.]
It had to be known that the Sword in the Stone was a priceless treasure. Additionally, the Sword in the Stone itself was a Divine Weapon. However, Weiss became discouraged. The Sword in the Stone was definitely not something that he could get his hands on right now. He did not have enough money.
A tall, blond man in the VIP seat upstairs propped himself up and looked at the stone case. The Sword in the Stone. He was determined to get it. Not for anything else. He was the prince of the British Royal Family, Richard.
The auctioneer felt a surge of pride. No one had known about this auction item all along. It was for this moment. Only when people were shocked and lost their rationality could they maximize the benefits.
"I used our company's reputation to guarantee that the Sword in the Stone is the real thing. However, our people have yet to find a way to open the box. Hopefully, the person buying will be able to open the box and allow the Sword in the Stone to see the light of day again. From now on, the starting price will be 300 million."
The fat man sitting in front tightened his grip on the beauty in his hand. The beauty was shocked but she didn't dare to make a sound. She knew that the man was in a state of rage and she didn't dare to touch him.
He had to get this thing because that was what his boss wanted. But the price was too high. He thought for a moment and made a call.
"Boss, we don't have enough money."
The man thought that 300 million was enough but who knew that it was far from enough.
A deep voice came from the phone.
"Regardless of the price, this item is too important to us."
The fat man gripped the bidding device in his hand tightly and started to raise the price continuously, because he knew that this was his life!
