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
Alba let out a sigh of relief on the inside.She turned to close the door and then sat down next to the two.“Grandpa Val, Master David, what are you talking about?” Alba was curious.“It’s nothing. Mr. Valerio asked me here to talk about some domestic trivia. Right, Miss Fellowes, is the auction over?” After David answered the question, he asked again.“Yes, it’s over. The bidding process for the final few items went smoothly and it was not as exciting as your bidding against Archimedes. Master David, you’ve started something new. You’ll be written into the history of auctions.”“Stop mocking me, Miss Fellowes. I know what I’ve done. I think everyone is mocking me now. However, Archimedes is still too weak to climb over my head. I can’t stand him considering himself the top dog in the world.”“Don’t misunderstand, Master David. I’m not trying to mock you,” Alba quickly explained.“It’s fine. I never care about what people think of me. It’s none of my business what other people
After the transaction, David took his four treasures and bid farewell to Alba and Valerio.He did not have time to check his system, so he did not know if he had gotten the lavish points.If the Hammer of Thunder was worth more than 11 trillion Star Dollars, he would surely get all of the lavish points.However, if it was not, then he would only get the lavish points equivalent to its true price.This was crucial to David.This would determine if he would be in partial Saint Realm or skip realms to go straight to Saint Realm and Pre-Saint Rank.However, David figured that since the system said the God of Thunder Hammer was one of the top three Ancient Weapons, it must be very valuable.According to the market price of Star Kingdom, 11 trillion Star Dollars was not enough for a high-level Soulbound Weapon.Since it was one of the top three Ancient Weapons, the God of Thunder Hammer would surely be worth more than a high-level Soulbound Weapon even if it was damaged.Therefore,
Nek might have thought he could crush David easily.The next time they met, David would swap the roles so that Nek would know what it was like to be an ant.“Hah… Huff… Hah… Huff…”After taking a few deep breaths, David closed his eyes to try to recompose his body to its best state.A few minutes later, David opened his eyes.Then, he opened his system panel and clicked on increasing his Body.A window popped up.[This upgrade would cost 1000 lavish points. After upgrading, the host’s Body will go from Sovereign level 6 to Sovereign level 7. Please confirm.]There were two options below: Yes and No.Of course, David chose Yes.The system shone and David felt a gust of warm air entering his body.A few seconds later, the system went back to normal.His Body had changed to Sovereign level 7.He had also spent 1000 lavish points, so there were only 112900.Without wasting any time, David continued to upgrade his Body.Sovereign level 8, Sovereign level 9, Sovereign level 10
