He smiled gently and said to Max, “That won’t be necessary. I will ask Karlo.” Jared mentioned the
name of the army chief of Hustuaburg so casually that Jared seemed to have not the slightest sense of
reverence toward him.
Max, on the other end of the phone, was silent for a moment and put down his phone as if he had also
just thought of this. He then looked back at Claus, who had a helpless look on his vacant face.
‘Who is Lucifer? Even his partner isn’t ordinary.’ Max found it incredible. The more he dug, the more
shocked he was.
Jared had hung up. He looked at the auction floor but his mind was elsewhere.
Pink Diamond had been delivered into Box Three. The blonde’s job was done, and she felt at ease.

Everyone can bid for it and may likely get it at a low price.”

Speaking of this, she motioned with her hand, and the crew behind her came up with a tray that looked
different from the one holding the pink diamond. It was simple and unpretentious, not covered with red
cloth, and the contents inside were visible.
Nicole was thinking of checking the progress bar on her computer. She could not take her eyes off the
tray when she saw what was on the tray. It was a palm-sized silver-white shard with a cold luster that
looked no different from a piece of scrap iron.
Zeke, who had seen Nicole’s motorcycle, recognized it at once. The material of the fragment seemed
to be exactly the same as that of Nicole’s motorcycle. He turned to look at Nicole.” Lucifer, this is…”
There was an unusual look in Nicole’s eyes. She looked at the fragment while the blonde on the stage
was still babbling, saying, “This piece of material is very special. We tried various ways to change its
form after the auction house got it, but whether it was cutting, burning, or processing it with modern
technology, we could not make a dent in it. This piece of material is a rare treasure. Because the
auction house has difficulty estimating its value, we have set the reserved price at one million dollars.”
The audience looked at each other, not knowing why this scrap iron was worth one hundred million
dollars. This amount was nothing to them, but there was no need to waste it on a piece of scrap metal.
No one raised a sign, and neither the blonde felt it strange. After all, this thing really looked like just a
piece of scrap metal. As tough as it was in resisting fire, it was only the size of a palm. What use could
it have?
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmJared looked at the fragment with a grave expression. He then shot a frosty look at Dino. “You
know what to do when you go back.” He then stood up and walked toward the auction table in the box.
Dino did not know what was wrong with Jared. He had checked and verified this piece of material and
found nothing special about it except that it was tough. Yet Jared was angry with himself for this,
wanting to punish him. Just now, Jared did not even bat an eyelid when the pink diamond nearly fell
short of the one-hundred-million-dollar hammer price. But now, he seemed to want to bid for the item.
In fact, that was exactly what Jared thought. He wanted to raise the price to ensure that no one else
would get it. But before he could do it, the box next door suddenly rang a bell.
The audience was stunned, and the blonde looked at the figure on the screen and was shocked for a
moment. Not that she had not seen so much money. She just did not expect that someone would
spend so much money to bid for something with unknown uses.
Jared was a step too late, and he squinted at the figure. 12)
