Chapter 1086: Going For The Auction
Translator: Dragon Boat Translation Editor: Dragon Boat Translation
In fact, it only took a day for the news to spread throughout the entire Eastern Sea Territory!
The requirements to join the auction were exceptionally high. If one wanted to participate, one had to be at least a Martial Arts Grandmaster.
In martial arts, those who could become martial artists were already considered experts. After that, there were Masters, Martial Masters, and the strongest were Grandmasters.
As for those above the grandmaster level, they had already stepped into another realm.
Oliver Walker was a grandmaster at his peak!
Looking at the entire Eastern Sea martial arts world, Allen Collins, who lost to Ichiro, Wright and Earl Florence, the founder of Dragon Fist, were all martial arts grandmasters!
This piece of news could be considered to have blown up the entire martial arts world!
After all, the Spirit Gathering Grass was a godly medicine. Not only could it repair inner Qis, but it could also strengthen them!
If one could consume a Spirit Gathering Grass, it would not be an exaggeration to say that his strength would immediately double up.
In the past, before the secular world and the ancient martial arts world were separated, one could indeed find Spirit Gathering Herbs in the secular world! However, as the spiritual energy in the secular world dried up, the spirit-gathering grass could only exist in legends.
Therefore, this news made everyone excited!
Dongjiang Villa Complex!
“Miss! Things have taken a turn for the better!”
“Mike Curtis has announced that there will be an auction in two days, and the item being auctioned will be the spirit-gathering grass!” Lucas said excitedly.
This was Miss’s priority. He also knew that after knowing that he was Wesley Wright’s trusted aide, it would be very difficult for Miss to trust him again. However, if he could help the young lady obtain the Spirit Gathering Grass, perhaps their relationship could return to how it was before.
“Auction the Spirit Gathering Grass?”
Jessica Wright frowned. “Don’t you think it’s too much of a coincidence?”
“It is almost impossible for the Spirit Gathering Grass to exist in the secular world.”
Even if Mike Curtis is the president of the Ocean City Martial Arts Association, do you think he can enter the ancient martial arts world with his strength?”
“Even if he did, as a martial artist, would he give up on improving his strength and auction it off?”
The problem was clear! Someone was deliberately setting up a trap!
“You mean, this is a trap?”
Lucas felt as if a bucket of cold water had been poured on him. He quickly calmed down and realized the reason behind this. Eighteen people from Carter Company had died. They definitely wouldn’t let this matter rest.
It was very likely that they had already traced it to the Eastern Sea Territory. They just didn’t know that he was the real murderer and was now trying to lure them out.
“Yes, sir!”
Jessica Wright’s beautiful eyes flickered. “But I have to go!”
“Miss, since this is a trap, why do you still want to go?” Lucas quickly tried to dissuade her.
“Is Oliver Walker really that important to you?”
Jessica Wright was risking her own life!
He would never agree to it, especially after entering the ancient martial arts world. Only then did he realize that his strength was really not considered strong. Then how strong would the people sent by the other party be?
“I don’t want to owe anyone a favor,” Jessica Wright replied firmly. “After I return the Spirit Gathering Grass to him, there will be no more friendship between us.”
Lucas only shook his head with a bitter smile. Miss was still unwilling to trust him. Otherwise, she would not be so two-faced.
Unwilling to owe a favor? They had already severed their ties, what kind of favor was there left?
Jessica Wright seemed to have read Lucas’s mind. She comforted him. “You don’t have to go to this auction. I’m afraid they’ll recognize you!”
This was the truth. Once Lucas showed up, he might be recognized.
She had never stepped into the ancient martial arts world, so whether it was a conspiracy or a trap, it definitely had nothing to do with her. Secondly, if Carter Corporation really knew who did it, then there was no need to use any means.
