Ancient God in the Modern World

Chapter 62 - C62 Item From Allen's Era

The time for the auction came as a gorgeous lady climbed the stage and greeted everyone. "Good evening ladies and gentlemen. Are you pumped up already?"

Allen was not oblivious of the identity of the female. Scarlet had told him, for some reason. And her name is Rose.

"Tonight's items are very special. Thus, I shall no longer let you wait."

*DRUM ROLLS*

The sound of the drum rolls pumped up the crowd. They could not help but take a deep breath as their hearts thumped wildly.

"The first item for tonight's auction is…"

The crowd was very excited but Allen was bored. The auctioned items aren't for him because they are useless for his divine energy.

After a while, the room of the VIP room where he was in, opened as Scarlet came in.

"Allen, has anything caught your eye?" She asked as she had her eyes on Stripes. She is not accustomed to a general-ranked beast lying docile in the corner of the room as if it was a cat.

In response to Scarlet, Allen did not say anything and continued spectating the auction.

"Our next item for tonight is for the antique collectors," Rose said as she started introducing the next item after a dozen or so items were sold.

Her words caught the attention of the Antique Collectors. But as to whether they would buy the item is yet to be known.

*clip* *clop* *clip* *clop*

A seductive lady came out from backstage while pushing an elegant golden cart. The cart was covered with fine red silky fabric. The lady, then, stopped beside Rose and pulled the cloth covering the cart.

As the item was revealed, everyone inside the hall felt a chill in their hearts as well as goosebumps on their backs. They saw seemingly black coins that exuded a profound chill and gloom, which had complicated engravings that could seem to draw one's soul out of their body.

"Ladies and gentlemen, this coin is archaic. It has been a legacy of a family of scientists from the past era. But despite many generations of study, they could not decode its engravings. At the same time, even with the knowledge that we've got today, we did not know what ore the coin made up."

The eyes of those with darkness-related ability lit up. They did not care about Rose's introduction. All they cared about was the chill and gloom that the coin exudes. They thought that the coin might let them comprehend more of their ability. Moreover, such an item only comes once in a blue moon.

"If the scientist did not need a vast amount of credits he would not auction this coin," Rose added.

They might not know but Allen felt a sense of familiarity with the engravings of the coin. Aside from that, he felt hatred deep to it. But in the next moment, he was confused as to how did a powerful divine spirit at his time die? Did the other divine spirits prey on him? Or perhaps the...DEMONS. Did the demons end the reign of the Divine Spirits?

Allen did not have an answer for those questions, but the coin might give him a clue. And one thing for sure, that coin is made by the Divine Spirit of Darkness.

The coin is not an ordinary item. Allen felt nostalgic as he looked at it. The Divine Spirit of Darkness creates coins and engraves his authority on them.

Then, he gives it as a reward to his people. The coin could gather divine energy and use them to protect its bearer.

"Bidding must not be lower than 1,000C and each bid must at least be 100C higher than the last." The host paused and took a deep breath. Then, he yelled enthusiastically which affected the mood of those who wanted to get ahold of the coin, "the bidding begins!"

"5,000C!"

The bid did not start at 1,000C but rather at 5,000C. But this put a smile on Rose's face. The higher the bid, the happier she would be.

"7,000C!"

...

"9,000C!"

...

"13,000C!"

The bidding continued to soar but Allen remained silent. He was not planning to bid along with them. He would only bid if the price had concluded.

Besides, he was not worried that the bidding would go out of his bounds. He has about 72,000C, which is already plenty.

"15,000C!"



"16,000C!"

The bidding reached 16,000C. At this time, Allen smiled. Then, he released his profound aura, which startled the crowd.

"20,000C!" He, then, opened his mouth and bid.

Meanwhile, Scarlet was dumbfounded at the way Allen bid. She could not help but shake her head.

Allen's action caught the attention of the military and the King's Manor. But since they were not interested in the coin, they let it be.

"20,000C, going once, twice, thrice. SOLD!"

As the host announced the conclusion of the bidding for the coin, Scarlet went out of the VIP room to get the coin.

...

Meanwhile, in the VIP room where the Military was in, General Flaviens was grinning wide as he sensed Allen's aura.

"General Flaviens, do you want to recruit him?" General Sean asked as he noticed him grinning, for some reason.

"Hehe. I want to meet him," he replied.

"Do what you want. That guy must be powerful," General Sean commented.

The two generals were already used to General Flaviens smiles. They have been with him for a long time now. At first, they found it creepy, but as time passed by, they neglected it and no longer cared about it. Although he looked creepy, he is a great general, and that is all that matters.

"I think he already has a faction." General Brenden intervened.

"Yes, but I think it's worth a try," General Sean agreed.

Ranking up to the ranks of a general is not easy. The resources needed alone would already be astronomical. Then, there are also the dangers, which would reap their lives. After all, life to the peak of humanity is a constant battle.

Meanwhile, General Flaviens no longer joined their conversation and focused on the auctioned items.
