Chapter 628: Auction Item
Just as Su Xiao took out the One-Eyed Giant's eyeball, he clearly noticed that the expressions of several Ten Elders were somewhat strange; those few people were very covetous of this eyeball.
"Black Rose, is this eyeball very special?"
Su Xiao looked sideways at Black Mary to the side.
"That... my name is Black Mary."
"I know, but Black Rose is easier to say."
Black Mary opened her mouth, and finally sighed.
"Fine, my name is Black Rose. As for this eyeball..."
Before Black Rose could finish speaking, a Ten Elder gave a dry cough.
"This thing is long-term acquired by the V5 organization. If it can..."
"Cough, cough, cough..."
Several Ten Elders coughed repeatedly and glared fiercely at Vike. The look clearly meant: 'Hurry up and make your idiot daughter shut up.'
Vike rubbed his forehead, looking as if he had a splitting headache.
"V5 organization?"
Su Xiao grinned. "Black Rose" not only was somewhat cowardly but also had a somewhat dazed and cute attribute.
"Uh~"
Black Mary stopped speaking; she already knew she had let something slip.
"How about we make an exchange?"
Su Xiao suddenly spoke, and the Ten Elders were somewhat confused.
"Exchange?"
"Yes, exchange. This eyeball can be given to you. In return, I will choose one item from the auction items of this auction."
"This..."
The Ten Elders looked at each other. They were naturally willing to make this trade, but the ownership of this eyeball was a problem.
There were ten Ten Elders, each with their own selfish motives. If they could offer the eyeball to the V5 organization in their own name, it would have huge benefits for their future development, at least raising their status by several levels.
If given the choice, no one would want to be in the underworld. For the V5 forces, the underworld was just a patch of "leeks"; when the "leeks" grew lush, they would harvest a batch.
The Ten Elders' forces were already very wealthy. According to past practices, the V5 forces would take action in less than three years.
Before being harvested, these underworld leaders were all looking for a way out. Their only way out was to find a way to join the V5 forces, so the significance of this eyeball was beyond words.
"Exchange for an auction item. Agreed."
"Fine."
"No objections."
The negotiation went smoothly. Su Xiao placed the thick test tube on the ground.
"Bai Ye, Black Mary will be your assistant and secretary from now on. If there is anything, we will let Black Mary notify you. As for that auction item, you can go get it before the auction starts."
Black Mary, standing to the side, lowered her head. Her father's orders could not be disobeyed; it had been like this since she was a child.
"Let her follow me?"
Su Xiao looked at "Black Rose."
"She can serve your daily life..."
Vike's expression was as usual. He had a total of 6 daughters and 3 sons.
"Following me is very dangerous. If she dies, remember to send someone to collect the body."
"No problem."
The deal was struck. The Ten Elders hired Su Xiao at the high price of 5 Soul Crystals (Medium) per day, and Su Xiao was responsible for ensuring the auction started smoothly.
Of course, he was also responsible for the Ten Elders' lives. These ten guys were gods of wealth; at least they couldn't die during the auction.
As long as the Ten Elders didn't die, the Soul Crystals (Medium) would keep coming. He still needed 70 Soul Crystals (Medium) to raise his Sword Mastery to Lv. 30. This was an excellent opportunity.
Thinking of this, not only did a smile appear on Su Xiao's face, but he also discovered that sometimes the gains from killing plot characters weren't the greatest.
For example, killing all the Ten Elders would never yield 65 Soul Crystals (Medium), but it was different when done through cooperation.
"Black Rose."
Black Mary was stunned, then remembered Su Xiao was calling her.
"Yes, does Lord Bai Ye have any instructions?"
"Take me to the auction venue."
"Yes."
Black Mary pressed the elevator button. The elevator rose to the 30th floor. While waiting, Black Mary, who was somewhat dazed, walked into the elevator and subconsciously pressed the close button.
Bang!
A hand blocked the closing elevator door. Black Mary's red lips parted slightly; she had forgotten Su Xiao.
A furry head poked into the elevator. Xiang Ignoring Bubu Wang glanced at Black Mary and sighed. The look seemed to say: "Such a national treasure-level natural airhead is really rare."
Su Xiao walked into the elevator, and Black Mary huddled in the corner, trembling.
"Am I that scary?"
Su Xiao looked at the mirror in the elevator.
"Of course, no... not at all, I'm just afraid of taking the elevator."
Black Mary had never been so nervous. The man beside her killed without blinking, was temperamental, and ruthless, so she was very panicked.
"A clumsy excuse. Xiang Bubu, am I scary?"
"Woof."
Xiang Ignoring Bubu Wang barked and rolled his eyes.
Night, Yorknew City, central district. A black sedan sped along the road.
Su Xiao sat in the passenger seat, little secretary Black Mary was responsible for driving, and Xiang Ignoring Bubu Wang was sleeping in the back seat.
The black sedan stopped slowly in front of a brightly lit building. This building had dozens of floors and a huge footprint; this was the auction venue. Because the auction was about to open, the number of underworld members here was staggering.
Yorknew City was managed by the Ten Elders' forces, and the rules here were set by the underworld. Although managed by the underworld, the public security of Yorknew was actually not bad.
If anyone dared to steal or rob here, once caught, the light punishment was having hands and feet chopped off, and the heavy punishment was disappearing from the world.
Su Xiao got out of the car and walked toward the auction venue. The dozen or so underworld members guarding the entrance became alert.
"Stop, unauthorized personnel are not allowed to enter."
These underworld members didn't recognize Su Xiao, but fortunately, they recognized Black Mary. After some negotiation, Su Xiao entered the auction venue.
The first floor of the auction venue was magnificent. It was called the top-tier auction for a reason.
Taking the elevator to the 41st floor, the treasury was on this floor.
After arriving at the 41st floor, just out of the elevator, Su Xiao found that the number of guards here had increased dramatically, and these underworld members were holding submachine guns, rifles, etc.
Opening the treasury wasn't simple. Black Mary negotiated with the person in charge of the auction for half an hour, confirming multiple times by phone, before the treasury made of special metal slowly opened.
The area inside the treasury wasn't large, but there were many things. All the auction items were packed in wooden boxes with labels attached.
"Mr. Bai Ye, you can choose any one item."
The person in charge of the auction bowed slightly; he already knew Su Xiao's identity.
Su Xiao walked into the treasury and checked the various labels. He ignored some cultural relics and antiques and picked out some rare weapons. These auction items weren't all the collections of the auction. The auction would open in three days, and some precious auction items were not trusted by the consignors to be stored in the treasury and would only be sent before the auction started.
Ten minutes later, a dozen wooden boxes were placed in front of Su Xiao. These were all auction items he had selected that were likely equipment or materials.
Opening the first wooden box, inside was a golden executioner's blade.
【Pure Gold Executioner's Blade】
Quality: (Unidentified)
Sure enough, as with the previous information obtained, equipment might appear at the auction, but it required a certain amount of luck. To identify whether this blade was equipment, he would need to return to the Samsara Paradise. ===== CHAPTER 629 =====
