How could there's a "1"?
The scene first fell silent, then erupted into an uproar.
This is the old auction house that's stood for years in Star Ring 77 with influence spreading throughout the Barnard Star System.
The bid had already reached 1.5 billion, and then comes this number, isn't it ridiculous?
The auctioneer's heart skipped a beat, hurriedly looking over at Young Master Sun.
This auction has become a laughing stock...
The system, which has never had issues, suddenly glitched on such a major order.
Young Master Sun's face turned gloomily unsightly, instinctively feeling the owner of bid 335 has some inexplicable connection with owner of bid 336.
This solitary "1" is really humiliating.
And Nigel Gale, next to Young Master Sun, stood up directly, irritably tugging on his tie.
Seeing the two big bosses react like this, the auctioneer dared not wait any longer, hurriedly stood up to resolve the situation.
"I sincerely apologize, the system encountered some issues this time, but our auction proceeds as usual..."
[Bid from 365: 1 Star Coin.]
The clear and bright electronic voice repeated once more, directly interrupting the auctioneer.
The auctioneer looked in astonishment at the staff on the side.
The staff not only faced the pressure of the auctioneer's inquiry, but also endured the menacing glare from their boss nearby.
Yet at this moment, they could only shake their head miserably, hands open wide.
It's not something they did!
Finally unable to bear the gazes from all directions, the staff's face turned red.
"I have no authority."
Bang!
The pair of crystal stone balls they were fiddling with in hand was directly smashed onto the ground, shattering into pieces.
Sun Ruo now was extremely irritated but burst into laughter, he stepped onto the stage, turned around, and glared at the densely packed auction seats, said in a deep voice: "Today our system played a big joke on everyone, embarrassed ourselves. Now I'd like to see what the real bid from our buyer 335 is."
All along, neither he nor the buyers down below believe that this number could be real price.
Upon hearing this, buyers started instinctively looking back.
Right, what price does buyer 335 want to offer?
Concurrently, they also hoped to see
However, just as he opened his mouth, a young man was already calm as he stepped down from the auction seat, right hand still held onto the side.
The black bidding device was still in his palm.
"A joke? I don't think so."
The flat yet clear voice echoed in the hall.
People suddenly locked their gaze onto the source of the voice.
A young figure with a calm demeanor drew everyone's attention.
That figure was walking down slowly but surely.
The ring-like arena seating arrangement made Mu Fan's figure extremely clear.
What made even more eyes shine brightly was Mu Fan's next words!
"I am buyer 335."
Sun Ruo's eyes gleamed coldly as he looked over, but met with calm, indifferent eyes instead.
"Friend, whether you're from the Barnard Star System or not, I have to tell you, no one has dared cause trouble at the West Cold Auction House for years. If the 1 Star Coin quote is indeed confirmed without any issues, I can assure you, your upcoming days will be nightmare," Young Master Sun sarcastically remarked without disguise.
In this interstellar eat-you-alive, your weakness only make you a prey. Just like the unrevealed Loki Heavy Industry's Princess, even her own mecha was taken away by Nigel, the smiling fox.
And Young Master Sun's reputation was built upon countless others.
Beneath him, there were never short of dead bodies.
Hearing the undisguised threat from the stage, buyers below found nothing inappropriate, these words seemed perfectly normal from the ruthless Young Master Sun.
Nuonuo tightly gripped the heavy metal plate, nervously watching Mu Fan's back.
From a seat apart, a buyer suddenly turned and looked at this hazy beauty with amazement.
"Your friend is probably courting death."
The language was filled with schadenfreude.
Upon hearing, Nuonuo turned her head and glanced at the other party, her eyes behind the veil grew cold.
"Master never speaks empty words."
After saying that, she returned to silence, no longer paying attention to the sneers from the side.
The buyer self-defeated, seeing the beauty hardly wanted to pay any attention to him, cursed silently and then gazed with schadenfreude at the youth's back.
Heart waiting to see how this dumb fool ends up.
...
Mu Fan strode forward, looked down at the bidding device in his palm, then casually tossed it, letting it roll onto the ground.
Crunch.
The ongoing steps crushed the bidding device to pieces.
This crisp sound was like a thunderbolt splitting everyone's heart, making their scalp tingle.
Then indifferent eyes gazed at the increasingly near figure on stage, spoke calmly:
"Just 1 Star Coin, but not a bid."
Mu Fan's eyelids drooped indifferently, uttering similarly sarcastic words: "It's my gift to you."
Young Master Sun's face turned gloomy, looking at that silhouette as one would a dead man:
"Looks like sir is here to cause trouble today, I can only wish you an enjoyable remainder of your life in the Barnard Star System. Security Guard, escort this troublemaker out."
Upon command, two tall and burly security personnel appeared from nowhere, swiftly blocking Mu Fan.
Two rubber batons crossed as a barrier, their thick arms displayed solid strength.
The youth's steps halted, raising his head to look at these two near two-meter tall burly men before him.
But his face remained calm.
A chilling smile suddenly appeared at the corner of his mouth, the fierce and savage malevolence in his eyes made the two burly men spontaneously feel tightness in their backs, as if being watched by some unknown massive terrifying creature.
"Causing trouble? Of course I'm here to cause trouble."
"Bullying me, then displaying my mecha at auction here."
"You tell me, who should I trouble...if not you?"
Upon hearing Mu Fan's first sentence, the two sturdy security personnel exchanged a glance, the crossed rubber batons suddenly withdrew, raised high and slammed downward!
Causing trouble here means courting death!
Bang!
The enormous impact sound resonated throughout the auction hall.
Nearly five hundred buyers were deeply shaken by the youth's words.
This mecha's origin unexpectedly has connections with this person?
Then that simultaneous impact sound drew their attention.
Mu Fan's hands firmly held each rubber baton one left and one right.
A chilling smile rose.
"Get lost."
In a burst of fragmented mist, Mu Fan directly crushed the two rubber batons, then his hands carried out a swift residue trail.
Elbows bent to spring back.
Punch out!
Boom!
The two burly figures were like sandbags hit by a truck, flying straight up towards ten meters in the central auction platform.
Bang, falling heavily at Young Master Sun's feet.
Tap, tap, tap~
Gently clapping his hands, Mu Fan walked down step by step, as if doing something insignificant.
Then calm gaze turned to a certain direction in the front row.
"Now, you may roll up."
"Nigel...Gale, sir."
Meanwhile, surrounding people that previously in their hearts mocked, sympathized or commented about the foolhardy young buyers, were completely petrified.
The girl astonishedly covered her mouth, the buyer a seat apart, his gaze utterly stunned.
