Wolves, Maces, And Blood novel Chapter 112

Even Luna Porter couldn’t help but look back at Sean.

Then she nodded and smiled.

Sean wore a wolf-head mask. Not many people knew him here, just Luna Porter, Zackary Campbell, Finn Lewis, etc. Finn Lewis and others looked at Sean like he was a monster.

Miss Porter of the Porter family in Capital City, and Mr. Mason of the Mason family of the Capital City. An engaged unmarried couple. They were stalemated at auction for Ladies Star Grass?

And, by one dollar!

What a rare sight!

“Three billion block?”

When the others noticed Sean’s location, the look of anger and disdain grew stronger. They sat in the five billion block or the eight billion block, but they didn’t dare to play that way. A $3 billion district guy going up against miss Porter of the Capital City?

How dared he!

But this was an auction. No matter how angry they were, they did not dare to do anything wrong. After a few sarcastic glares, they sat down and waited for Luna Porter to “slap Sean in the face” as she had done with the middle-aged man in 125.

Expectant glances turned to Luna Porter at machine 6.

“I give up.”

Luna Porter could have said and done nothing. All she had to do was to wait for the 30-second countdown to end. But then she said something out of the blue.

Beep!

Her voice was not loud, but it sounded like thunder. It immediately caused a strong reaction in the crowd. The expectant glances of Luna Porter suddenly turned to shock, disbelief, and disapproval!

Why?

Why were you so brutal, overbearing, and unreasonable when you competed with us? When it came to that son of a bitch in 118, you suddenly changed?

Give up?

Dear Miss Porter, you were not giving up. You were humiliating us!

In particular, the middle-aged man sitting in front of machine 125 looked at Sean in a very complicated way. Words could hardly describe it. He could not help thinking, “This son of a bitch, NO. 118, isn’t he having an affair with miss Porter, is he?”

Otherwise, Luna Porter fought with everyone and robbed everyone, but why did she give up when it was Sean’s turn?

They must have an affair.

Sean shrugged at the complicated gaze of the middle-aged man in 125. He also looked confused. Only, through the Wolf mask, the middle-aged man could not see him.

Sean couldn’t figure out what Luna Porter meant.

Was she trying to make him be hated by everyone?

Eight and a half billion!

Sure enough, after a few moments of confusion, before the 30-second countdown to zero, someone bid again and directly raised the bidding price of Ladies Star Grass by 500 million!

Machine No. 23......

Sean’s pupils constricted. He glanced back at machine 23 and saw that it was the $8 billion zone. Sitting in front of machine 23 was a square-faced man in his fifties.

When the man raised the price, he looked back at Sean with an aggressive look on his face.

Apparently, he was stimulated by Luna Porter’s behaviors.

$8 billion zone, which meant there was only $8 billion in the man’s card. And now he had got $8.5 billion, which was clearly the same thing Sean did, transferring money to the verification card.

He was just trying to make Sean uncomfortable!

Without hesitation, Sean reached out and clicked several times on the machine in front of him. Soon, the bidding price was renewed. Eight and a half billion dollars!

He still only added a dollar!

The square-faced man gave Sean an angry look and then continued to raise the price!

Nine billion!

Then, just three seconds later, it was nine billion and one!

For the next few seconds, there was drama in the auction room. The guy with the square face was jacking up $500 million at a time. Sean, on the other hand, was steady as a rock, adding a dollar at a time.

The billionaires in the room were stunned.

Most people, though, were rooting for the square-faced man. Every time the square-faced man raised his price, he was greeted with cheers. But every time Sean added a dollar, he got a sneer and a look of disdain.

But Sean didn’t care at all.

He just needed to get Ladies Star Grass!

The square-faced man finally gave up when the bidding price on the giant screen became $12.5 billion and one. His face turned pale, and he had lost all his former pride and confidence.

The reason is simple. Twelve and a half billion was all he had!

It was up to the peak!

“Bastard!”

The square-faced man gritted his teeth as he gave Sean a hard look and said, “Good for you!”

He then dropped his bid.

The billionaires who were watching were disappointed. At 12.5 billion, the price was far beyond the actual value of Ladies Star Grass. Had it not been for a fit of pique, no one would have added further.

Moreover, only a dozen people were sitting in the ten billion zone. As long as they didn’t bid, no one else in the precinct, even if they wanted to, could afford that kind of money!

“That was a close call…”

Sean sighed secretly. Owen Sanchez’ $3 billion, plus Zackary Campbell’ $10 billion, and at this point, there was only $13 billion in his verification card, not even a dollar more!

So, if the square-faced man raised his price one more time and made it to $13 billion, it was Sean who was going to be mad.

A dollar beat a hero!

Zackary Campbell, sitting in the front row, was equally quietly relieved. He knew how much money Sean had, so when the bidding reached $10 billion, he pulled out his bank card and waited to transfer the extra $10 billion to Sean.

Now, it looked like he didn’t have to.

As the clock ticked down to the last five seconds on the giant screen, Zackary Campbell put his bank card back in his wallet. But almost as soon as he closed his wallet, the bidding price that everyone thought was a foregone conclusion was renewed.

And this time, the scale of the change was particularly large!

Twenty billion!

From $12.5 billion and one to $20 billion!

Boom!

Like thunder, the moment, the scene became a mess.

It was like a thunder, and the atmosphere of the scene was in a mess. The demoralized billionaires almost jumped as they stared at the blinding number on the giant screen.

“Oh, my god! Who is that guy?”

“Finally, a super-giant has stepped in!”

“How rich is that! Twenty billion! This time I’d like to see if that son of a bitch sitting in the $3 billion section dares raise his price! I’d like to see if he had that much money.”

Anyone who could put up $20 billion at a time was at least a tycoon of the Crane Town!

So even Zackary Campbell, a tycoon of the Crane Town, was taken aback by the sudden change. He shook his hand and almost dropped his wallet.

Then he looked over his shoulder to his right.

Luna Porter sat in front of machine 6, Zackary Campbell sat in front of machine 8, and the $20 billion mega-mogul sat in front of machine 12.

He wore a tiger mask and no one could see his face.

But judging from his figure, dress, hairstyle, and the skin showing from his neck, he was a young man not more than thirty years old.

“Excuse me, you’ re?”

Zackary Campbell asked.

But the young man didn’t seem to hear him and didn’t bother to look at Zackary Campbell. It was like he didn’t care about Zackary Campbell at all.

This gave Zackary Campbell a strong sense of unease.

Before he got here, he gave Sean $10 billion, took $10 billion himself, and plus Owen Sanchez’s $3 billion, that was $23 billion. He thought it was enough to win Ladies Star Grass.

And now, judging by the way this young man dismissed him, probably $23 billion was not enough.

He looked back at Sean.

Sean nodded at him and, knowing that the odds were against him, he transferred his $10 billion to Sean.

Sean immediately transferred it to the card and bid Twenty billion and one!

That young man, he was no ordinary man.

The images on the huge screen refreshed so quickly that others might not notice, but Sean was very keen to notice that the previous person who bid $8 billion was No. 12!

Luna Porter bid eight billion and one dollar, and everyone was so distracted by Luna Porter that no one even saw who the man was!

After Luna Porter’s previous bidding, the young man in number 12 did not continue to raise the price!

Now, with Sean on the verge of winning, he was raising the price again!

What did he mean?

Did he take on Sean like the square-faced guy in number 23?

Thirty billion!

When Sean was thinking to himself, the bidding price on the huge screen was refreshed by the young men of No 12 directly to 30 billion. And when he did, it was another $10 billion increase!

He was really a big spender!

Sean’s face went completely cold. This price had greatly exceeded all the money in his hand, even if he overdrew the credit limit of the Supreme Black Card, he would have another 10 billion at most!

Thirty-three billion wouldn’t be enough!

The Supreme Black Card’s line of credit was graded. It had a fixed limit of $1 billion and a maximum allowable overdraft of $10 billion. If more, you needed to apply to the headquarters of Universal Bank to open a temporary large amount of credit!

Grade C, you could overdraw $20 billion!

Grade B, 50 billion!

Grade A, One hundred billion!

In addition, there was the highest grade, grade S, unlimited amount!

“Look, are you dumbstruck?”

“Are you out of your money?”

“Aha…I love it when he’s so grumpy and helpless!”

The 30-second countdown was dropping fast. When he sat there and didn’t move, as if he were petrified and scared, the billionaires mocked and mocked him.

It was like they were the ones bidding for $30 billion!

“I request suspension of bidding!”

Suddenly, Sean stood up and shouted.

According to the rules set by the auction, if the bidder wanted a certain auction item and wanted to bid, but the bidding price had exceeded his expectation and the money prepared in the verification card was not enough, and there was no extra money to transfer on the spot, they could put forward a ten-minute suspension of bidding to the organizer.

Like Zackary Campbell. With the Campbell family’s money, there was got to be more than $20 billion. But when he came, he only brought 20 billion dollars, and before he entered, everyone’s communication equipment was taken away by the organizer, so he could not contact the outside world and ask others to remit money.

In this case, it was necessary to suspend bidding!

“Suspension?”

The billionaires gasped, then said with disdain, “You’re never gonna come back until there is a dead end, right?”

“Wait for it. It’s gonna be a good day.”

The countdown on the giant screen suddenly stopped and stood at six seconds, indicating that the organizers had approved Sean’s application.

Ignoring the taunts and sneering stares from the billionaires, Sean strode from his seat to the front row. Zackary Campbell also stood up and said gravely, “Sean, I’ll make a call, get a wire transfer, and within ten minutes, we should be able to get another $30 billion or so out of the group…”

$30 billion, plus the previous $23 billion, that was $53 billion. They might get a chance!

But Sean still thought it was not safe!

What he wanted was not “might”!

He wanted “definitely”!

Today, he must get Ladies Star Grass without any accident!

“No, you don’t have to.”

Sean shook his head, cast a cold glance at the young man sitting in front of machine 12, and then turned to walk across to the satellite phone provided by the host party, “Mr. Campbell, I have a solution!”

He had just taken a few steps when Luna Porter’s voice suddenly came from behind him, “You need any help?”

“No!”

Sean refused without looking back.

Help?

If you hadn’t done me a “favor”, maybe it wouldn’t have happened!

Time was pressing. It was only ten minutes, and Sean didn’t dare delay. He strode over to the satellite phone and immediately dialed an overseas number…
