Chapter 491: Chaos at the Auction House
Chapter 491: Chaos at the Auction House
No. 1 Red Tree Area, Margery Auction House.
Ever since Rorschach and others caused a disturbance at the auction house ten years ago, the auction house in Mangrove District No. 1 has gone through several rounds of changes and was finally occupied by Margery's Auction House.
Just when the auction was halfway through, the yellow-haired man Milo and his two younger brothers rushed to the auction house with Shirahoshi.
The backers of Margery's auction house are the Celestial Dragons, and they have auctioned mermaids before, but this is the first time for a mermaid princess.
After some communication, the owner of the auction house finally accepted the White Star as an auction item.
After all, it is now the eve of the World Conference, and a large number of kings and nobles have gathered in the Sabaody Archipelago.
As for the fact that Mermaid Island is also one of the member states, whether auctioning the mermaid princess would anger the World Government, it is obvious that the owner of the auction house is very confident that the World Government will not care about this matter.
After all, most of the slaves at the auction were mermen. If the World Government wanted to intervene, it would have done so long ago, not to mention that the slave trade is also one of the ways the World Government makes money.
Time passed and the auction was coming to an end. At this moment, the sexy auctioneer spoke.
"Dear guests, our auction house just recently acquired a new item, and its value is higher than the previous items!"
As soon as these words were spoken, the audience, which had been quiet, became excited again. After all, the items that had been auctioned before were not cheap items. Many of the items were worth over 100 million yuan.
"Now, let's take out the last item for auction!"
The auctioneer clapped his hands, and a group of waiters pushed a cart covered with a red cloth onto the stage.
The auctioneer walked to the side of the car and pulled off the red cloth under the gaze of everyone, revealing the huge water tank inside.
Inside the water tank, there was a mermaid with long pink hair, wearing a yellow tights, a bright red fishtail, a mermaid face, tears in the corners of her eyes, and a pitiful look.
Although this mermaid's body size is close to that of an adult mermaid, her face looks like a little girl of four or five years old.
"The Mermaid Princess, it's actually the Mermaid Princess!"
Someone recognized Shirahoshi's identity and shouted excitedly.
"That's right, this is Princess Shirahoshi of Mermaid Island, the most noble mermaid in the world!" the auctioneer shouted.
Seeing the audience's excitement, the auctioneer shouted, "The starting price is 70 million!"
Seventy million is the price of an ordinary mermaid. Shirahoshi has a noble status, so how can she be treated the same as an ordinary mermaid?
"Eighty million!"
"Ninety million!"
"One hundred and fifty million!"
………………
"Four hundred and fifty million!"
"Four hundred and eighty million!"
"Five billion!"
The auction price increased at a visible rate, and often someone else would raise the price as soon as the previous person finished speaking.
Bai Xing huddled in the water tank, shivering.
Influenced by Princess Otohime, she also has a very strong talent of observation Haki, which allows her to clearly perceive the inner thoughts of people outside.
This was the first time she encountered such a thing when she left Mermaid Island. She was still young and felt that the world was dark.
Father, Queen Mother, Brother, Lord Dekkar, Avril..., save me.
Bai Xing kept praying in her heart, and a few tears rolled down her eyes.
"A billion Baileys!"
The auction house suddenly became quiet. Everyone looked in the direction of the voice and found that the person making the bid was a Celestial Dragon wearing a diving suit and a transparent helmet.
"I, the Celtic Saint, want this merman. Who among you wants to snatch it from me?"
Unlike most people with deformed appearances, Celket grew up relatively normal, but his special outfit clearly showed his status as a world aristocrat.
Seeing that no one made any more bids, Saint Kelket put his hands behind his back and walked towards the stage with an extremely arrogant step.
Behind him, five CP agents in white suits followed him silently.
Watching the Celtic Saint approaching step by step, Bai Xing's face showed an expression of fear. He kept swimming backwards and bumped into the glass door.
"Mermaid Princess, this is definitely the most enviable slave."
An obscene smile appeared on the face of Saint Kelket, and he was already imagining the scene of showing off the mermaid princess, his slave, to other celestial dragons in the future.
"No...no!" he shouted.
"Stupid guy, it's your honor to be my slave!" Kelket cursed and kept moving closer to the water tank.
At this moment, there was a loud noise, and a big hole suddenly appeared in the ceiling of the auction house. With wood chips flying, a beam of sunlight shone in.
There was a man standing in the sunlight. It was Dekker who came to look for Shirahoshi.
"Shirahoshi, are you okay?"
Ignoring everyone else, Dekar asked the white star in the water tank.
"Lord Dekker, wuu ...
Bai Xing could no longer control her tears, and they fell like a kite with a broken string.
Dekar smashed the glass water tank with a punch, reached out to pull off the explosive collar on Shirahoshi's neck, and threw it behind him.
"It's okay, let's go."
Dekar comforted Shirahoshi with a few words and planned to take Shirahoshi away directly.
After all, with Shirahoshi around, it wasn't convenient for him to take action.
At this moment, an arrogant and domineering voice came into his ears.
"Who are you? That's my slave. What are you doing?"
Dekal turned around, staring silently at the Celtic Saint with his red eyes, and a creepy voice uttered with a grin on his lips.
"Are you going to stop me?"
The Celtic Saint was startled, but quickly recovered his arrogant and domineering state.
"Asshole, I'm a Celestial Dragon, a child of God. How dare you look at me like that? Take him down now!"
Five agents stood in front of Saint Kelket and looked at Dekar vigilantly, but no one dared to take action.
It is normal that the Celestial Dragons do not know Dekar, but as an intelligence agency, CP agents naturally know him.
Seeing that no one took action, Celket Saint said angrily: "You guys, why don't you kill him quickly? No, I want him to be my slave."
The master gave the order, and the agents had no choice but to take action even if they were afraid.
Looking at the five agents running towards him, Dekar couldn't help but raise the corner of his mouth.
"You're really looking for death!"
Dekal's fists flashed with dazzling white light and punched the first person.
With a loud bang, a huge hole appeared in the auction house again. Soon, several more explosions were heard, and all the agents flew out of the auction house, their lives or deaths unknown.
Dekar tilted his neck and walked towards the Celestial Dragon with a smile on his face.
"What...what are you going to do?"
The Celtic Saint said tremblingly.
"What for? To send you back to reunite with the others, of course!"
Under the horrified gazes of countless people, Dekar's fist fell towards the Celtic Saint.
At this critical moment, a voice rang out from inside the auction house.
"Desert Greatsword!"
