Looking at the departing figure of Nicholas, as well as the figure that immediately failed to leave after Nicholas had left, Freya could not help but frown.
As the eldest daughter of the Kardas family, she naturally understood what these fellows that followed closely behind had in mind as they stood up to follow Nicholas.
Although Kardas would protect the safety of the successful buyer in a short period of time, he would also take a secret passage that no one knew the exit to protect Nicholas’s safety after taking the items.
However, Nicholas had already exposed his identity as the buyer. As long as he was still in the underground city, the danger he faced would not disappear for a day.
The underground city was not a peaceful place. Even in the inner city, there would still be bloody scenes from time to time.
Freya had already predicted what would happen after Nicholas. At the same time, Freya also silently prayed in her heart. She hoped that this resplendent ring would not enter the Kardas family’s auction house to be auctioned again.
If that was the case, there could only be two reasons.
Either Nicholas could not stand the harassment and was willing to hand this resplendent ring back to the Kardas family to be auctioned again.
Or Nicholas was already dead, and the existence that killed him did not need such a resplendent ring that did not require any holding requirements.
Judging from the current situation, Freya felt that there was a high probability that Nicholas would face the second outcome.
After all, most of the people who were able to bid for this resplendent ring did not have any magic power on them, nor did they have any magic talent.
This could not help but be the case. Most of these buyers were relatively wealthy existences in the outer city.
Otherwise, they would not care so much about their own lives. They would be willing to spend a lot of money to buy a defensive magic ring that could release magic without any magic power.
Fuya had heard of Nicholas. After all, the Kardas family had also done a lot of business with Nicholas.
According to Freya’s weak memory, she knew that Nicholas’s full name was Dadar Mondo Nicholas.
Nicholas specialized in selling gemstones and ornaments in the outer city. Over the years, because of their friendship, he had a lot of business and thus had a lot of wealth.
While carrying out these businesses, Nicholas had also provoked a lot of enemies. Some of them were even existences that would not rest until one of them was dead.
Nicholas was just an unarmed businessman. Other than being rich, Nicholas was just a fat man who could not fight back against threats.
If they didn’t hire bodyguards, many street thugs would be interested in Nicholas. No wonder Nicholas was willing to spend so much money, he wanted to buy this ring that could save his life at the critical moment.
Looking at Nicholas’s disappearing figure, Freya couldn’t help but shake her head helplessly.
To put it bluntly, even if Nicholas died, it had nothing to do with the Kardas family.
As the eldest daughter of the Kardas family, Freya was naturally not a saint. The life and death of a businessman would not affect Freya’s emotions.
At this moment, Freya opened her mouth again and said something to the bidders present.
However, just as Freya opened her mouth and was about to speak, the staff member below the stage rushed up. He looked like he was still panting.
The staff member looked extremely anxious. After whispering something into Freya’s ear, he bowed deeply and left the stage.
Upon hearing the news from the staff member, the pupils in Freya’s large eyes suddenly shrank.
She immediately turned her head and said to the auctioneer below the stage.
“Just now, our family received a new item.”
“Because the value of this item is very high, our family planned to hold another auction next time, leaving this item as the finale.”
“However, many honored guests have come to our auction, which brings glory to our Kardas family. My father, the current head of the Kardas family, has decided to move this item to this auction in advance!”
“The value of this item is beyond my imagination. Even I have never seen such a magical item before…”
As Freya spoke, the staff behind her had already moved a crystal table up.
On the crystal table, there was a small box-like item, which was covered by a red cloth.
The crystal table looked extremely precious. It seemed like the raw materials used to make the crystal were not inferior quality crystals, but crystals that truly belonged to gemstones.
There were also quite a number of threads on the red cloth. If one took a closer look, they would see that they were all sewn from gold threads!
When Briz and Doldona, who were in VIP Room 3 and VIP Room 4, saw this scene, they could not help but raise their eyebrows at the same time.
Although Briz looked down on the two great clans in the outer city, Briz could feel that the Kardas clan had actually taken out such a grand thing to carry this small box, this thing was definitely not an ordinary existence!
It was even possible that it was something as rare as a phoenix feather or a qilin horn even in the inner city.
Meanwhile, Doldona narrowed his eyes into a slit. For some unknown reason, Doldona had suddenly sensed an extremely dangerous aura from his newly increased magic perception ability!
That terrifying danger was even more terrifying than the inner demon that had suddenly appeared.
“What exactly is this thing? It can actually release a pressure that is not weaker than the inner demon from before?”
“This thing is definitely not simple. I did not expect that the Kardas family would actually be willing to put this thing up for auction. I thought that they would take it for themselves. This is really making me more and more curious.”
Doldona felt that things were getting more and more interesting.
Below the stage, Elena looked at the stage that was completely made of gemstone grade crystals. Her big eyes kept blinking.
She turned her head to look at Joelson beside her. She tugged at the corner of his clothes curiously and asked.
“Mr. Joelson, this auction item looks very grand!”
“It must be something of the grand finale, right?”
Joelson stared blankly at the stage, a hint of surprise in his eyes.
It was the first time Elena saw him like this. Before this, Joelson had always been very calm in Elena’s perception, and he had never shown any surprise.
Of course, Joelson would be shocked. At this moment, through magic detection, he discovered…
The box on the stage, was actually containing Hades’s dragon scales!
