Chapter 349 Public Assassination
"Why are you looking at me like that, Mr. Northern Lights?"
A voice broke the tense atmosphere, causing all the passengers who were staring at the auction stage to turn their heads.
However, Ivan, who had already regained his composure, directly revealed "Sergei's" account name on Wanyizhiji, thus covering up his previous loss of composure.
Among these people, some were deeply moved upon hearing the words "Northern Lights".
Although they hid it well, with no abnormality in their eyes or expressions, the way they turned around...
But it was a moment too late.
Meanwhile, the passengers also noticed Ekaterina's unusual behavior.
She actually looked at "Bai Ze".
Furthermore, given the information provided by Singh Desai and the Ursus Federation military's previous determination to obtain it, does this prove that the Ursus Federation already knew that this information was the coordinates?
For a moment, undercurrents surged in the auction hall, with everyone having their own thoughts and quietly observing the others.
On stage, the blonde auctioneer hesitated, unsure how to handle the unexpectedly strange item.
Only when a flash of light appeared on the auction stage and the golden sphere reappeared did the blonde woman feel reassured. She quickly stepped back two paces to give her place to the train conductor.
"I'm sorry, everyone, there was a slight mishap during this auction. On behalf of Wan Yi Zhi Ji, I would like to express my deepest apologies."
As the train conductor spoke, the sphere of light conjured a phantom golden figure that bowed slightly to the audience.
"This little mishap is insignificant; we just want to know if the auction will continue?"
There was an immediate response from the audience. Li Mingqi from the Martial Arts Association stared intently at the auction stage and raised his voice, "Now that it's on the auction stage, I suppose it won't be taken down, will it?"
"Once something is put on the auction stage, it becomes an item for auction. This is the auction's rule, and no one can violate it," the train conductor replied calmly. "Even if it's related to our Wan Yi Zhi Ji, it can't be taken down. However, there's one thing we need to state beforehand: this item is rather special. We can't guarantee its authenticity, but we can guarantee that we haven't touched it."
These are all written in the relevant rules and regulations of the auction, and Wan Yi Zhi Ji... at least that business god cannot violate them.
As for whether it's true or false...
Judging from the looks in the eyes of many people present, they clearly did not want to miss this opportunity.
Even half of the coordinates of the WanYiZhiGi server are worth the risk.
Moreover, aren't there Ursus people who know the inside story?
In any case, according to the rules of the WanYi Train, even if the server coordinates of WanYi Collection are captured, the train crew cannot take action on the train and must even escort them to a safe location to disembark.
As for what happens after you get off the bus, that depends on which side is stronger and which side has more people voting for them.
"It seems you all intend to continue this auction."
Seeing this, the train conductor didn't hesitate. The golden figure floated to the side and said calmly, "Let's continue."
Upon hearing this, the blonde woman could only calm herself down, stand on the stage again, and say, "The third auction starts at 100 million Yi coins, and each bid must be at least 10 million."
Upon hearing this, Singh Desai, sitting below, was devastated and collapsed into his chair in despair.
I originally planned to spend the Wanyi Coins I won at the auction directly on the Wanyi Collection platform, and then escape to another world with enough resources.
But now it's like this...
Use the money obtained from the auction of Wan Yi Zhi Ji to spend on Wan Yi Zhi Ji?
What a hellish joke.
As for Singh Desai, others probably have no time to care, as their attention is focused on the auction.
"One hundred and ten million."
Almost as soon as the auctioneer finished speaking, Ivan raised his hand and called for a bid.
His involvement seems to have further ensured the authenticity of the auctioned items.
The others remained silent for a while, observing Ekaterina, trying to glean something from her.
Unfortunately, Catherine remained unmoved at that moment.
"One hundred and twenty million," one of the two Black men called out.
The two rounds of bidding gradually built up the atmosphere.
"One hundred and thirty million," Li Mingqi immediately followed.
"Fellow Daoist Li, do you have enough money?" Zhang Zhixu asked in a low voice.
Li Mingqi came to investigate Wang Yiming, not to participate in the auction; he doesn't seem to have any savings.
It's not that Li Mingqi, a seven-star martial artist, doesn't have assets of 130 million, but rather that as a martial artist, Li Mingqi's energy expenditure is high, making it difficult for him to have that much.
"I will contact the Martial Arts Association as soon as the auction ends, hoping to get a chance at the Wanyi Gathering."
Li Mingqi glanced at the others and said solemnly, "Everyone, this matter is of great importance. I hope you will all support me. All losses will be reimbursed by the Martial Arts Association."
As they spoke, the price was still being quoted upwards.
"One hundred and fifty million."
"One hundred and seventy million."
"Two hundred and fifty million." Ekaterina suddenly raised her hand and added eighty million directly.
But her words indirectly confirmed the authenticity of the auctioned item.
"Two hundred and sixty million," Evan shouted again.
"Three hundred million." Ekaterina continued to raise the price.
Throughout this bidding process, someone remained uneasy, secretly observing Bai Ze, also known as "Sergei".
And Mu Yaoguang in disguise as "Bai Ze".
"Gino Brand of the Blantania Province of the Shinra Empire."
Bai Ze remained expressionless, but he was also secretly keeping an eye on him.
Among the remaining three, one was an "antique" whose coordinates were determined by Wanyizhiji to be in the province of Blantania.
Since "Antique" knows that his partner "Northern Lights," with whom he placed the bet, is here, and Bai Ze is also present, he will definitely make some connections.
Those who dare to frequent Wanyizhiji, and whose information is only partially confirmed by Wanyizhiji, are certainly not lacking in caution, and their sense of crisis is definitely rising at this moment.
Bai Ze was already 70% certain that Gino Brand was indeed an "antique".
But there is one more thing to be aware of right now.
Those are the people who tamper with the auction items.
Bai Ze was able to kill two people on the train because his words carried weight.
The train can suppress spiritual power and true energy, preventing them from leaving the body, but it cannot suppress the power of words.
What about the rest?
If they wanted to tamper with the train and get away with it, there were only two possibilities.
Either it is the ability to act without restraint, just like the power of words.
Or...
Thinking of this, Bai Ze suddenly stood up and said, "Wait a moment."
"With this item suddenly appearing for auction, some of us may not have enough funds. Train conductor, could we take a break and allow me to raise the funds?"
After a brief silence, the train conductor said, "Of course. Although we have entered the Mountain and Sea Realm, you can log in to the Myriad Changes Collection and contact your friends on the Myriad Changes Collection through the Thousand Realms Instrument in the External Liaison Room."
Both the train and the WanYiZhiJi server possess the power of the God of Commerce, and for these evil gods, crossing boundaries is difficult.
But it's not impossible.
Hearing the train conductor's words, many people breathed a sigh of relief.
Therefore, the auction was suspended.
Bai Ze didn't sit down; he walked straight out of the auction hall in a hurry.
Seeing this, Gino Brand also quietly quickened his pace.
Although Sergei Aurora Borealis is wealthy enough to have previously wagered hundreds of millions, he clearly has no intention of participating in this auction.
Even if you manage to take the picture, you won't live to take it with you.
Therefore, in the eyes of those in the know, this is not about raising funds, but about buying time to think about an escape route.
If Bai Ze knew that "Northern Lights" was one of the people who harmed his friend, "Sergei" would be punished sooner or later.
The people who participated in the auction walked out of the auction hall one after another, with Bai Ze sitting at the front.
Then it's all "a mirage."
He quietly cast a purely physical illusion, directly altering the source of the information, and said indifferently, "Kill him."
Gino Brand, who was behind him, suddenly felt his body stiffen and gradually lose control of his body.
He looked terrified, but couldn't even shake his head. He could only see a figure, both demonic and solemn, walk past him.
At the same time, two sharp blades pierced his body from both the left and right sides.
