Chapter 585: Was Caught off Guard and Made a Sudden Move

After hearing the sky-high price of 60 million red crystals offered by Vincent, Adrian, who had initially wanted to show off his magnanimity in front of everyone, felt as if he had swallowed a brick. His throat was stuck, and he was in a bad mood.

Adrian turned to look at Vincent and said in a cold tone, “You’ve interrupted me again and again. It seems like you’re deliberately provoking me!”

His eight eyes were burning with anger. He almost wanted to rush forward to fight Vincent.

Vincent leaned on the sofa and ignored Adrian’s anger. He said calmly, “This is an auction house. The highest bidder will get everything. If you have money, you can continue to bid. If you don’t have money, just sit quietly at the side. It sounds like your father is someone important. Aren’t you afraid of embarrassing him by jumping up and down like this?”

Adrian clenched his fists tightly and his whole body trembled. Every muscle in his body was tensed up but he had to suppress the anger in his heart. He had never been humiliated like this before in his entire life. If he did not take revenge on Vincent, he would not be able to let this go.

On the other side, the thin figure who wanted to bid against Vincent for the star compass immediately gave up after hearing the sky-high price of 60 million red crystals. She stood up and took off her cloak, revealing her tall, thin figure and dark green face.

“What this gentleman said makes sense. In the auction house, Money is everything. I admit defeat and will no longer bid against you for this compass!”

The dark green freak with her hands behind her back spoke to Vincent and Adrian in a calm tone. She once again showed neither servile nor overbearing attitude.

Adrian glanced at her coldly and then asked in a deep voice, “You’re a Berserker? I thought your race had long been extinct! I didn’t expect there to be any survivors. You’ve displayed an extraordinary bearing today. I admire you very much. If you’re interested, feel free to come and look for me at the Moon Association!”

At that moment, a figure dressed in a black robe who was standing at the corner of the auction hall stood up. He sneered and said, “She is the Berserker Charlotte, one of the Five Great Venerables of the Wanderers Association. Is your association trying to poach her in public?”

Adrian’s eyes darkened when he heard this, and his expression immediately became ugly.

Although the Wanderers Association had many creatures, most of its members were low-level stinky and rotten creatures. Only a few of its members were true experts.

Among these few experts, the five who had completed the most missions and were the most loyal to the association were called the Five Great Venerables. Not only did they have the right to issue missions, but they also had the authority to issue orders to any member of the association. Their status was equivalent to that of the manager of the headquarters!

Although Adrian had never met any venerables, he had heard that the Five Great Venerables of the Wanderers Association were all high-level creatures. In other words, each of the venerables had the strength of a level 60 creature. Even if they were to fight, Adrian knew that he would not be able to fight them.

Adrian, who had wanted to seek revenge on Charlotte after the incident, immediately gave up on the idea. He said in a gentle tone, “I didn’t expect the venerables of the Wanderers Association would come here. I have been disrespectful. Just pretend that I didn’t say what I said just now!”

Charlotte, who had taken the initiative to expose her identity, smiled slightly. She did not say anything more to Adrian. Instead, she turned her head to look at the mysterious creature who had just said her name. She said softly, “We are all the five venerables. You don’t have to hide your identity anymore, Richard!”

Adrian, who was just about to sit down, straightened his body again when he heard that. He looked at the black-robed creature with a guarded expression.

It could be said to be a coincidence if there was only one venerable who had appeared in the auction hall. However, there must be a reason if two of the five venerables of the Wanderers Association suddenly showed up. Adrian had no choice but to be cautious.

The power of the Wanderers Association had expanded rapidly in the past few years. At the same time, they had set the Inn as their next target for plundering. The Inn was also known as the capital of the Wanderers.

Adrian’s purpose for coming to the Inn was to collect information before the war. Therefore, he felt a strong sense of unease when he found himself in the same room as the two venerable.

Adrian asked cautiously, “The two venerables have graced us with their presence at the same time. I wonder what is going on?”

The other black-robed creature also took off his cloak, revealing a face and body that was as dry as tree bark. He said in a deep voice, “Please rest assured, Mr. Adrian. Charlotte and I only came here to investigate because we saw many unidentified creatures secretly following the members of our Wanderers Association into the trading market. But now it seems that the two of us are worrying too much. There’s no need for us to worry about the current situation!”

When Adrian heard this, he turned to look at the corpses in the hall. He could not help but think that the wanderers that Charlotte and Richard wanted to protect had all died under Randall’s draconic aura. That was why they said the matter had nothing to do with them.

After realizing that the matter in the auction hall had become more and more complicated, Adrian knew that he could not stay any longer. He knew that he had to kill Vincent as soon as possible, and then take the initiative to invite Mr. Randall to leave together. Only then, could it be considered a foolproof plan!

Otherwise, once the Wanderers Association discovered his true purpose of coming here, Adrian would not have the confidence to escape from the two venerables.

After making up his mind, Adrian sat down obediently and waited quietly for the auctioneer to continue the auction. He was afraid that once he opened his mouth, Vincent would just retort and waste his time again.

When the auctioneer saw that the scene had finally quieted down, he quickly seized the opportunity to slam the hammer. He said, “Sold! This piece of item that is special to the Star Race has been sold to this distinguished guest at the price of 60 million red crystals! May I ask if you want someone to deliver the compass to you, or do you want to come up personally to receive it?”

Vincent saw that the auctioneer was trembling with fear at that moment. He could not help but smile helplessly and say, “Forget it! There’s no need to trouble you guys. I’ll go up and get it myself!”

Vincent got up and walked up to the auction stage. He put the star compass into his storage ring and smiled happily.

From the moment the auctioneer introduced the star compass, Vincent had been very optimistic about this equipment because he knew that he needed the guidance of the star compass to explore the ruins he planned to visit.

At the same time, as a beginner array master, Vincent also hoped to perfect the arrays with the guidance of the star compass.

Bang!

Just as Vincent was happy, the window of the VIP lounge upstairs suddenly shattered. Kurt stuck his head out and shouted, “Mr. Vincent, be careful!”

Vincent subconsciously turned his head and saw a black shadow appearing in front of him. It was Adrian, who had been waiting for this moment for a long time!

His right hand had turned into a sharp claw and he stabbed it toward Vincent’s heart..
