The Legacy System

564 Chapter 564



It was at this moment that the hot hostess of the Auction appeared in front of the crowd once again with a jade bottle in her hands, as she claimed in a loud voice,

"Everyone that still remains interested in the Auction, it\'s time for this little girl to present in front of you the third and last secret item of this auction, also the star item of this night!"

The moment that everyone heard those words they couldn\'t help but become even more interested in the item, as one has to understand that tonight had been auctioned quite a few rare and unique treasures and resources.

Claiming something like that, was nothing short of saying that whatever had been sold until now, was nothing but trash in comparison to this last item.

A lot of people didn\'t believe that to be the case, as they all heard and looked at the stage with a look of disinterest and disbelief.

The hostess didn\'t seem to mind the looks of disbelief as she smiled coquettishly at the crowd and continued,

"Of course, this little girl\'s words don\'t count too much in face of your great experience and foresight, and the truth is that I don\'t understand much about this article either.

So I will just relay to you the words that I was instructed backstage, this last item is a batch of magical pills, called Energy Refining Pills!

Whoever takes one of these pills will be able to gain an increase in their energy absorption and refinement by at least 500% for the next 3 days upon taken!"

While the hostess didn\'t really understand what she was saying, and what it really meant, she was able to notice from the expressions and faces in the crowd that she was saying something unbelievable.

She hadn\'t received such a reaction even when she presented some millennial herbs or some extremely expensive antiques.

The whole crowd was actually looking at her, or to be more precise at the jade bottle in her hand like they wanted to devour it by any means.

She felt an extreme danger upon himself, as she was completely gobbled up by the intense greed of the audience.

\'Is that for real!?\'

\'When and how did such a pill come to be!?\'

\'Who is the Master Alchemist who can concoct such a pill!?\'

\'What\'s the price!?\'

\'How many of these pills are there to be auctioned off!?\'

The whole crowd was thrown into an uproar, as they couldn\'t believe what had just appeared in front of them. This was just too grandiose to believe.

The hostess was overwhelmed by sudden explosion of voices, whispers, and questions but she managed to regain her composure quickly as she continued to explain,

"There will be 5 pill bottles, with 10 pills each, for a total of 50 pills that will be auctioned tonight for our invited guests!

Rest assured that the claims of benefits from these pills have been fully proved and are guaranteed by our people of the Auction House. One person can take up to 10 pills in a month!

Due to the value of these pills, our Auction House felt unable to give them a proper estimate, so their base price is 1 dollar, but there can be no increment lower than 1 million dollars!"

The whole crowd was once again surprised and startled by the words, but at the same time, they couldn\'t help but impatiently wait for the bidding.

For revolvers, there was nothing more important than energy refinement and the need to continue their evolution.

After all, who wouldn\'t want to be stronger, live longer, and have a higher standing in society. The people who could escape the power drug were extremely rare.

The stronger and more powerful one became, the more strength and power he sought. In their eyes, these pills were nothing short of true magical pills that would help them grow strong and more powerful faster.

Even though the time effect was rather short, they would still be able to have the work of 15 days done in 3 days only.

Not to mention that they weren\'t limited to one of them, as they could take 10 in a month, then wouldn\'t they be able to make the work of 5 months, in just one!?

This was a great opportunity that they couldn\'t let go of, no matter what! Even if they didn\'t buy them for their selves, they had to buy them for their juniors, and families.

Without further time wasted, I declare the auction start for the first bottle! Please do your bidding!"

Right as the voice of the hostess fell down, some guy from the crowd screamed in a loud and excited tone,

"My Jin Family offers 3 million dollars!"

​ It was quite the start, especially when the price was started at 1 dollar, but no one felt that it was a high amount.

"My Lu Family offers 5 million dollars!"

"My Chen Family offers 6 million dollars!"

Like this, the situation went back and forth with these fogies touching upon each other nerves until a loud ringing voice took all of them by surprise,

"My Cao Family offers 150 million dollars!"

At this point in time, each of Eric\'s Energy Refining pills had reached a value of 15 million dollars. Making quite a few people in the crowd envious and jealous of this achievement.

"My Ling Family offers 200 million dollars!"

Just as the Cao family made its appearance from one of the Golden VIP rooms below Eric\'s and Cui Xie\'s private room, the Ling Family did the same.

Not only did they make an appearance, but they even did so with an overbearing attitude, that served even as a face-slap towards the Cao Family.

No one was able to see through the glass of the VIP rooms, but they were certain that the Cao Family guy was having a red and green face due to the sudden occurrence.

Still, there was no way he was going to give up now that it became a battle of face, without thinking much, the Cao Family Elder raised his tablet and wrote the new bid,

\'250 million dollars!\'

\'300 million dollars!\'

\'350 million dollars!\'

\'400 million dollars!\'

"500 million dollars!"

In but a minute there was a fierce back and forth battle between the people from the Ling and Cao families, as the price reached half a billion without problems.

It was only at this point that the two adversaries finally came to a stop as they started looking back at their bids.

At this point, the Ling Family Master opened the speaker from his room, as he said,

"Since Master Cao is so interested in this first batch of pills, then I can only raise my hands in defeat, and congratulate you on your conquest!"

The Cao Family Master\'s face was extremely ugly and gloomy as he couldn\'t believe that he had actually let his emotions take the best of him and spend so much money on those pills.

While those pills were certainly precious, they were far from this value. He had spent more than 50 million dollars on one of those Energy Refining Pills.

This price was just too much! He couldn\'t accept something like this, he wasn\'t able to accept this lightly.

If it wasn\'t for that bastard of the Ling Family he would never have spent such a price for these pills. He had to make sure that the Ling Family didn\'t have a better outcome than his from this auction.

It was at this point that the first batch was successfully bought, and the hostess declared the selling of the second batch.

Once again the price started to rise slowly at first, from 1 dollar to 100 million dollars, and this was the moment that the big families would take part.

\'150 million dollars!\'

This time it was another big family of the capital that actually made such a big, the Long Family. Of course, the Long Family didn\'t have any open enemies as they tried to keep relations with everyone else.

But it was impossible for the Long Family to take what they wanted so easily. Especially when the Cao Family had already spent more than 500 million dollars on the first bottle.

At this moment, it was someone from the Mu Family who actually made a move, and when the hostess was about to announce the Long Family\'s win, he typed,

\'300 million dollars!\'

The whole audience was left speechless as they couldn\'t believe just what the hell was going on. Tonight money was being thrown around like someone shooting with a water gun.

Hundreds of millions of dollars were flying all over the place like they were giving candies.

As for Eric, he was extremely happy at this moment. He had never thought that he would be able to make such a great fortune through these pills, but he had to thank the Ling and Cao Families for this fortune.

If the people of these two families knew that he was the reason for their enmity, and even the one who was shoring them completely they would probably make him the number one enemy.

They would never rest easy, they would use every coin, every man, and every connection they had until Eric and Cui Xie were 6 feet underground.

Of course, that was under the condition that they knew about all of this of course, as for the moment their greatest enemies were each other.

Surprisingly though, it looked like after tonight wouldn\'t be only the Cao and Ling Families, but all the big and powerful families that would have a new outlook on their attitude and actions…
