Chapter 237 Angry Celestial Dragon
...
"Ladies and gentlemen, please prepare your number plates. We are about to start the auction. Lusa is the mermaid from Fishman Island! The starting price is 1 million berries! The bidding begins now!"
"1 million!"
"1 million!"
"I'll offer 1 million!"
"2 million Baileys!!"
Although there is a high probability that they can only be spectators, as long as the Celestial Dragons have not made a bid, it means that they still have a chance. Maybe the Celestial Dragons just don't want to buy the mermaid today?
If you can't buy it, it's nice to just shout out a few pressure-free quotes to satisfy your craving, so the people in the audience started to make active bids.
"5 million Baileys!!"
"I'll give you 5 million Baileys!!"
A loud roar instantly quieted the noise in the venue.
Everyone turned around and saw that the celestial dragon Erzwat Saint sitting in the middle seat had stood up, opened his palm and gestured with five fingers.
"Damn it, there's no chance."
"Yes, every time a mermaid is caught, the Celestial Dragons are invited to participate. It's impossible for us to take pictures, even if we have money. We might as well post a commission on the underground black market. Maybe we can get a chance to get something for free."
The two wealthy businessmen in the audience looked frustrated and complained quietly.
"Anyone else bid? 5 million Baileys once, 5 million Baileys twice."
The host asked a nonsense question and started to prepare to knock the gavel.
"Hey hey hey~"
Seeing that no one dared to bid against him, Erziwat Sheng showed a satisfied smile on his face, jumped to the front of the stage, and was ready to go up and take away the mermaid he had photographed.
"Ah~! Ten, a billion!"
"The VIP in Box 10 offered billion! He just doubled the price!"
After hesitating for a moment, the host decided to call out Ger's offer from the display screen at the back.
He was extremely excited. After today, he would be a senior auctioneer who had successfully auctioned off goods worth more than 10 billion Baileys!
The auction hall was completely silent, and everyone looked up at Box No. 1 at the same time. Everyone was full of admiration for this brave warrior who dared to bid against the Celestial Dragons and doubled the Celestial Dragons' offer in one go.
"Hey, hey, hey, did I hear you right?"
"Maybe, I should, maybe I didn't hear it wrong, because I seemed to hear it too!"
"Someone actually made an offer! Beautiful, now we're going to have a good show, so exciting!"
"What a joke! Run away now! Be careful or the Celestial Dragons will get angry and cause harm to everyone involved!"
"No! If you want to leave, you go first. I won't leave! Such an exciting scene is rare in a century. I won't be able to sleep or eat if I don't eat this melon today!"
A stubborn guy said something shocking.
"Hey, you really don't know how to appreciate kindness. Who cares about you? You can leave if you want."
"Shh! Stop arguing, we can hide near the exit first, and we can run away if things get bad!"
"Right, right, right! Baldy, you have a good brain. You are really smart! When I get home, I will give my son the same hairstyle as yours!"
"Alright, alright, stop being so rude and get going!"
The proposal of the middle-aged Mediterranean man was immediately agreed by everyone, and several people secretly got up and sneaked towards the exit.
...
"Nani?"
Saint Erziwat stopped his joyful dance, his smug expression frozen on his face. He took out his luxurious golden pistol, pointed it at the host on the stage and asked:
“Why didn’t you bang the hammer to announce that I had won the bid?”
Looking at the pitch-black muzzle of the gun, the host took a few steps back in panic, and the guards at the auction hall nearby hurriedly kept a safe distance from him.
"Please calm down, Saint Erziwat!"
“I asked you why you didn’t hit the hammer??”
"Please calm down! Saint Erziwat, someone has offered a higher price. According to our auction rules..."
The host also tried to popularize auction common sense and relevant rules and regulations to the Tianlong people, but unexpectedly the other party pulled the trigger directly.
"boom!"
A gunshot was heard and blood splattered.
"ah!!"
Before the host who was shot could even scream, a large group of young girls in the audience started screaming first.
"Ah! Help! Help me! I'm shot!"
The host fell to the ground, holding his injured thigh, and shouted for help from his colleagues at the auction house, but everyone avoided him and no one dared to save him at this time.
In the panicked crowd, he saw that familiar figure, and as if he saw a life-saving straw, he shouted desperately:
"Master! Save me!"
But in despair, I saw the old host shaking his head and sighing, then turning and walking away.
Sitting on the chair, Saint Lauzwart, who encountered this situation for the first time, could not help but be stunned for a few seconds. After coming to his senses, he pushed away the maid who was serving him and stood up to get angry. The auction house's general manager, Xieryin, had already knelt down at his feet and apologized:
"Saint Lauzwart, please calm down! I have sent someone to deal with it. The other party must have made an accidental mistake. Please calm down first. All the expenses of the two adults today will be borne by the auction house!"
"Get lost! Do I need this little money? Whoever dares to challenge the dignity of the Celestial Dragons, I want to see his head or yours now!"
"Yes! Sir, please wait a moment, I will definitely give you a satisfactory explanation."
The elderly Xieryin bent his stiff waist and crawled on the ground to answer, then stood up and ran quickly towards Box No. 1.
"It's really infuriating! Hey! You guys, go get the chains and tie him up for me. He's my slave now!"
Saint Erzwat gave orders to the guards at the auction houses behind.
"No! No! No! Saint Erzwat, please spare my life!"
"As you command, my lord!"
Several people rushed forward to hold down the injured host, ignoring his wailing, and put a slave collar and chains on him.
"Hey Hey!"
Saint Erziwat pulled the chain and kicked the host several times, causing his face to bleed and several teeth to fall out. He could no longer speak. He then stopped with satisfaction, and in front of all the audience, he dragged his new slave back to his seat and boasted to his father:
"Father, I caught a slave for free! Isn't that amazing? But I want those two mermaids too!"
"That's great. Don't worry, my dear son. They're all yours! Let's first execute the pariah who dared to bid against you."
I, Watt Saint, said lovingly.
"Okay father, please let me execute him! Hehehehe!"
"Great! You are worthy of being my precious son. You are both talented in literature and martial arts!"
"Hahaha! Hahaha!"
I, Watt Saint, grinned and laughed unscrupulously.
The laughter echoed in the venue. All the guests in the audience lowered their heads, not daring to look over there, for fear that they would accidentally make eye contact with the Celestial Dragons and be captured and enslaved.
Everyone wanted to escape from here as quickly as possible, but standing up at this time would be too conspicuous, so everyone could only sit in their seats obediently like quails, hoping that the Tianlong people would leave quickly after killing people and resolving matters.
