Lots of Money
Although Gerald still had a lot of money, it was obviously not enough to buy the weapons he wanted.
So he figured he would have to buy Valery and the others better weapons only after the next mission
was accomplished.
After all, weapons like Nebula were mostly worth more than millions of golorbs.
They were useful for Flame Decay like Gerald and Valery and would save lots of trouble. But Gerald
still did not have enough money.
The items on the fourth floor were all treasures and quite expensive. There was even some peculiar
perfume that was deeply liked by women.
However, Valery and Carolyn did not have much of an interest in that sort of thing. The two of them
barely wore any makeup and were already beautiful.
As for the entrance ticket for the auction, it was very expensive. Around 50 thousand golorbs.
And the auction place was big enough to accommodate a thousand people.
When Gerald and the others arrived, there were not many tickets left.
Many people knew that they were unable to win the bid of the Thunder Saber. It would definitely be a
great battle among rich families.
However, everyone was still dying to see such a legendary weapon.
Just as Gerald was about to enter, his phone suddenly rang. At the same time, an Al voice sounded.
“Lexie calling.”
“Pick up,” Gerald said calmly.
It was the first time Gerald had made a call after receiving the phone.
Soon, the call was connected.
On the other side of the phone, Lexie said, “Gerald, what are you doing?”
“I am hanging around in the black market. What’s wrong? Is there anything?” Gerald asked.
“Are you in the black market? Did you also go to the auction for the Thunder Saber?” Lexie asked in
surprise.
“I can’t afford it, though. I just came to buy other things,” Gerald shook his head and said.
“Well, then you have to be careful. The news of the Thunder Saber auction has spread throughout the
entire Solein Kingdom. Many people from the Solein Kingdom have rushed over. Today, the black
market is full of experts. Even the Four Ancient Families have gathered a lot of their people with their
Flarne Decay,” Lexie said.
Gerald frowned. If that was really the case, they were indeed in danger. His biggest concern was
Hector. The Flame Decay from the Four Ancient Families would definitely recognize Hector.
“We will pay attention to that,” Gerald said as he exhaled slowly.
“Also, the main reason why I contacted you is that I want to ask for your help. Lexie seemed a little
embarrassed.
“Just say what you want!” Gerald replied.
“I have a friend called Benson Pierce from Rime City. He is sort of my senior, and he comes from the
Pierce family. This time, he also participated in the auction,” Lexie said.
Gerald’s heart skipped a beat. Could it be that the person just now was Lexie’s friend?
However, he immediately understood. Lexie and Laylah were both from Rime City. And the Sadler
family was also famous in Rime City. The Pierce family was the same. It was normal for Lexie to know
Benson.
Lexie continued, “Before he came, he knew that I was around. So he asked me if I knew someone at
the level of Flame Decay. He wanted to find himself some guards.
“Guards”” Gerald frowned.
He was indeed not quite interested in being a guard. Gerald just wanted to carry out the mission as
soon as possible, and he really did not think too much of money!
“The guard at the level of Half-Step Flame Decay who makes sure that Benson enters Rime City
without harm would be awarded 50 million golorbs. In the case of a peak Half-Step Flame Decay, the
money doubles. As for someone at the level of Flame Decay, he could walk away with 500 million
golorbs,” Lexie said.
Hearing that, Gerald breathed faster.
“Gerald, don’t misunderstand. I know that you have reached the level of Flame Decay. You don’t care
much about the golorbs. I just hope that you can help me. I owe you a favor.”
“I accept it!” Gerald quickly replied.
He thought that a guard would never be well-paid, so he was not interested in it at first. But that was a
lot of money this time.
Other than Jacob and Claude, everyone was at the level of peak Half-Step Flame Decay. In three days,
they could earn over a billion golorbs. And everyone could change a better set of weapons and
equipment.
Moreover, they could just take the opportunity and avoid a temporary disturbance. Why not?
Although he accepted the mission, Gerald still frowned and said, “I think I met your friend just now. He
has three Flame Decays around him. I don’t think he needs our protection. And also, he even has an
aircraft.”
Lexie said, “My friend will definitely win the bid for the Thunder Saber. And the Four Ancient Families
will probably send people to attack him secretly. In the auction, most of the people who win the bid will
have to offer up to the powerful families in Havotune. However, if those items are robbed by the Four
Ancient Families, they might be able to take the weapons for themselves. Therefore, the Four Ancient
Families will not give up such a great opportunity. Nor will the other forces.”
Gerald’s expression changed. It meant that there was still a possibility of killing some experts from the
Four
Ancient Families. That was definitely worth it.
Of course, Gerald also knew about the danger and the risk.
He pondered and asked, “Are you sure that he can win?”
“As far as I know, he always wins when it comes to money. Even the royal family of the Solein Kingdom
can’t offer a higher price than Benson’s,” Lexie said.
Gerald was speechless. Lexie surely made her point.
Gerald nodded. “Okay, I agree. When and where are we going to gather? Also, I have others with me.
Two of them are at the level of Flame Decay, and four are at the level of peak Half-Step Flame Decay.
Lexie fell silent and then said, “You still have so many experts with you?”
Gerald nodded and said, “Yes. Is it too many people?”
Lexie replied, “Not at all. I’ll send you an address later. After the auction is over, come over here and
gather with us. If there are no accidents, we will be leaving this afternoon or tonight.”
Gerald nodded. “No problem!”
After hanging up the phone, Gerald briefly explained the situation to his fellows.
After listening, they all agreed.
Everyone was shocked to find out that they truly lack money.
As they talked, they walked into the auction house. Because they bought the tickets too late, their seats
were at the back. In total, six of them sat in the back row.
The light in the entire auction house was very weak. Other than some brave people, most attendees
were wearing disguises, so no one could recognize each other.
What shocked Gerald was that there were indeed many experts in the auction house. Gerald had
already. sensed dozens of experts at the level of Flame Decay.
Hector sat with his eyes fixed on the front row. An elder was sitting there.
“Does he have a grudge against you?” Gerald leaned over and asked.
“That’s Arvin from the Ingram family!” Hector’s tone was fierce.
