If he known this would happen, he would stay there and only come out after he broke through to Sovereign Rank.He would have avoided all of this if he did.However, at this moment, Archimedes was put on the spot.So many people were watching. If he admitted defeat now, he would be so embarrassed.When he was about to continue the bidding, Bernard whispered in his ear next to him, “Master, calm down. You don’t have a lot of funds left. Also, it won’t increase before you break through to Sovereign Rank. If you spend everything in one go, it will be difficult.”Bernard knew his master wanted to beat David, so he did not say anything back then.However, as things got out of hand, he had to say something.If he allowed his master to continue, this might not end well.A mid-level Soulbound Weapon had been raised to a sky-high price of 5 trillion. This was too much.It was not worth it at all.Furthermore, they did not have enough funds.“Uncle Bernard, you’ve been with me for so m
“Archimedes, I told you that even if I go bankrupt and get scolded by my master, I won’t allow you to act so arrogantly in front of me. Do you think you’re safe if you ask for 8 trillion? I’m sorry, I’m going to ask for 9 trillion. I don’t believe you’ll still dare to continue bidding. Your family is loaded, but you’re not the head of the family yet. You’re just an heir so you won’t be able to use so much money,” David looked at Archimedes and yelled.He looked as if he was throwing caution in the wind and was determined to fight to the end with Archimedes.‘9 trillion!’Archimedes was stunned.He thought he was mad, but he did not expect to meet someone madder than him.David was willing to spend 9 trillion for a mid-level Soulbound Weapon just because he was acting in a fit of rage.In the end, he even added 1 trillion directly to the price.This should be David’s limit, judging from his face.If Archimedes continued, David would surely stop.However, it would not be easy.
If not, his Saint Realm dream would go down the drain.“Haha, time’s up. Miss Fellowes, tell everyone who the Hammer of Thunder will go to now! Archimedes is a coward. He doesn’t dare to bid anymore. I was right just now. He’s just an heir, how could he have so much money? The Lightfoot family is rich, but it’s their money. Archimedes can’t represent his family. I guess I’ve won. Archimedes Lightfoot, admit your defeat! You will only live in my shadow for the rest of your life. You will never walk out of it, haha!”After David said that, he chortled.He seemed to feel joyful beating Archimedes.Archimedes was still hesitating, but when he heard what David said and his ear-piercing chortle, it felt as if he had been smashed across the head.Archimedes was seeing stars.‘No! I can’t let that punk step all over me!‘I can’t lose no matter how big the price is!’Before he could think clearly, Archimedes yelled out another price.“10 trillion!”Just like David, he added another 1
To stop Archimedes from acting on his rage and causing things to escalate to an uncontrollable stage, Bernard contemplated for a very long time before deciding to take Archimedes away.The price of the Hammer of Thunder was 10 times more than its original value. If Master Achi called out another price, it would only continue to rise.This premium was unreasonable.Even if Master Archi won and bought it, he would still become the laughing stock of the outside world.Everyone would talk about him whenever they were gossiping, ‘Was Archimedes dropped on his head when he was born? He bought a mid-level Soulbound Weapon for 10 times its price just because he wanted to win? He’s the embodiment of having only money and no brains.’The most important thing was that they simply could not take out so much money now. When that happened, they would need the family to clean up their mess.After weighing the pros and cons, Bernard figured he could not sit idly by.Since he could not talk Arch
However, it was normally never as intense as the one today.They increased the price by 200 billion, 300 billion, and even 500 billion. In the end, it directly increased by 1 trillion.Alba had hosted and attended a lot of auctions, but she had never seen this before.She had never even heard of it.This was too exaggerated!That was real money!As the third young mistress of Treasure Trove, Alba could only use a few trillion Star Dollars. She would not be allowed to use more than that.However, David spent 11 trillion.Perhaps only a disciple of a Sacred Saint had the power to do that.“Are you sure you want to spend 11 trillion on the Hammer of Thunder, Master David?” Alba asked.“Of course! Miss Fellowes, even though the price of the hammer was raised so high because of my fight with Archimedes, so many people are watching and I value my prestige. I will pay the final price of 11 trillion Star Dollars, and not a penny less,” David states righteously.“But…”“No buts. Mis
“Everyone, settle down. Even though Master David bought the Hammer of Thunder, the auction is not over yet. Now, let’s continue bidding on other treasures. I promise they are all on the same level as the Hammer of Thunder,” Alba said loudly.The scene plunged into silence again.After they finished watching the drama between Archimedes and David, they should focus on their own business.Without those two rich men, the auction could go back to normal now.Soon, another treasure was wheeled on stage.David had lost all of his interest at this moment.Therefore, he got up quietly to leave.However, the moment he got out of the venue, a staff member from Treasure Trove stopped him.“I’m sorry, Master David, please return to your seat. You can’t leave before the auction is over.”“Then why can Archimedes leave?” David asked.“He only left after paying for the treasures he bid on.”“Well, let’s calculate the total amount for all of my treasure. It’s not like I’m not going to pay,”
Instead, he was wondering what grievances the two of them had.Bernard was Archimedes’ protector, so they two were always together.Moreover, he was also a late Sovereign Ranker.David could leave unscathed after offending Archimedes, so there might be something going on behind this.Valerio had been paying attention to David ever since he entered the room.However, the result surprised him.He could not see through David at all.David seemed to have a layer of mist surrounding him, and it was covering him tightly, preventing anyone from looking into him.Since he dared to go head-on with a Lightfoot family member, he was not a simple young man.“You speak too highly of me, Mr. Valerio. I don’t deserve such praise. May I know why you asked me to come here? I should have completed the transaction with Treasure Trove first,” David said.He was not in the mood to chat with Valerio.Wouldn’t it be better to complete the transaction, get the lavish points, and progress to Saint R
David and Valerio were chatting.It seemed like they were chatting, but in reality, Valerio was asking David all kinds of questions.With David’s intelligence, he naturally knew that Valerio was indirectly probing about his identity.Therefore, he repeatedly mentioned that he had an amazing master.He said he had always trained with his master and was only recently let out.As for the other points, apologies, but David would only answer perfunctorily.Valerio also realized he would not get the answer he wanted by asking like this. Therefore, he changed the way he asked and started chatting about domestic trivia with David.Of course, David was not stupid.With the increase of his mind power, his IQ and wits also increased.No matter what Fellowes said or asked, David’s answer would be invulnerable, not exposing even the slightest bit of information about himself.David would only let Valerio know the things he wanted him to know.As time went by, David started to get impatie
