In a dark room.

A man is sitting cross-legged behind his desk, clutching the arm of a chair in his hand.

The man had a huge body that was even larger than ordinary people, and his muscles seemed to be about to explode.

However, the surrounding atmosphere is exactly the opposite, gloomy and harsh.

Suha, who had just finished reporting, stood at the front, swallowing saliva and waiting for the other party to respond.

"So..." "

Yes."

"An unknown young nobleman bought a vampire for a huge price in the city of Kubaks, is that the only clue you found?"

"Yes."

"You're not even sure if my brother's death has anything to do with him..." the

man's voice lowered.

Suha had a feeling of wanting to close his eyes tightly, because he knew that it was a man's habit when he was in a bad mood.

The man in front of Suha was named Jack, the head of Valkirov.

However, before organizing the most important event, the auction, Jack was in a bad mood.

His brother John was killed while escorting slaves to the city of Domihawk.

Worse, he didn't even know who to vent his anger on.

By the time they found out, it was too late to track down who killed them.

He sent people to the city of Kubaqus to investigate the situation behind the scenes, but only found a report that he had just heard.

"Huh...,"

Jack let out a trembling sigh.

It had been a long time since he had encountered something like this that made it difficult to contain his anger.

Although John would rob others of money from time to time and abuse slaves with impunity, which is abhorrent in many ways, he is still Jack's only relative in this world.

They have been together since they were living on the streets until they formed Valkilov, which raised him into the number one organization in the Third Territory.

After a moment, he closed his eyes and suppressed the rising anger.

Because it was about to be the time for the auction to start, after that, he would investigate in more detail.

"Knock knock."

"Come in."

There was a knock on the door, and an elderly elf cautiously pushed the door into the room.

He is a member of the cadre responsible for verifying those who participate in the auction.

Jack slowly opened his eyes and asked,

"Did something happen?"

"There was an unidentified person who attended the auction."

The auctioneers did wear masks, but this was only to cover each other's faces.

The people of the organizer, Valkirov, naturally knew the identity of the participants.

They are the first to make requests, and most of the time, the attendees are mostly those who regularly attend auctions.

Of course, sometimes there are attendees who have not met before, and they pay a little attention.

Normally, in the past, when he heard this report, he would say lightly, but now Jack's attention turned to Suha, who had just reported.

"You said John gave the invitation to the man who bought the vampire."

"Yes."

"You said that a human youth and the Guardian Knight around him are women, what do they look like?"

Suha replied

, "The man is black-haired, while the Guardian Knight is white-haired."

Jack turned his gaze back to the old man.

The old man nodded.

"Yes, it's the same. It was a black-haired human male and a white-haired human female.

"It's them."

It was they who bought a vampire and participated in the auction of another vampire that was about to be auctioned.

Jack was silent for a moment, then slowly got up.

While Jack doesn't know if they were related to his brother's death, it seems to be the only thing worth noting at the moment.

... ...

When he went downstairs, the scenery in front of him surprised Lin Qian and the two.

There are seats and an auction table, although it is the same auction house as Lin Qian imagined, but the space is much larger than expected.

Inside the auction hall, the walls were inlaid with fluorite, the lights were dim, and many people were already sitting in their seats.

There are also seats on the railing on the second floor in the back, and it is obvious that it should be VIP seats.

Under the guidance of the person standing at the door, Lin Qian found a place and sat down with Asher.

Lin Qian found that there was a sign on the arm of the chair with a number on it, so he picked it up and looked at it, and Lin Qian guessed that this should be used in the auction bid.

Lin Qian let down his guard and turned his gaze back to the podium.

The auction had not yet officially begun, the host was introducing the slaves, and those present looked at them like beasts in a cage, and if they wanted to have them, they had to bid.

Even if Lin Qian had never been to such a place, Lin Qian knew that only money was the most important thing here.

Lin Qian glanced back at Asher, she just kept staring at the auction scene and did not speak.

Seeing all this, Lin Qian knew that she must be uncomfortable in her heart.

More and more people began to gather, and the seats were already half full.

Some people sat quietly like Lin Qian waiting for the auction to start, while others chatted with their companions, and Lin Qian could hear the conversation between them.

"This time, I heard that there were many high-quality slaves, and the people at the auction said that we should look forward to it."

"Is it? I hope they have a child I like. I made a special belt that I hope I can use to love him well..." Lin

Qian listened to this disgusting conversation, so he didn't listen anymore, dispelling the idea of eavesdropping.

A moment later, the curtain on the stage was lifted, and a man in a suit and mask appeared on the stage in the light.

"Good evening ladies and gentlemen participating in the auction!"

The auction seems to be about to begin.
