Chapter 31
Author: Oldwell
The host of the auction stepped onto the stage. Seeing this, everyone quickly turned their attention toward the stage. Skylar wanted to say something, but the people in charge had already arrived, so he could only hold back and sit down.

Then, the host explained the 140 plots of land and the benefits of developing it. Finally, he announced, "The auction will officially begin with a starting price of 60 million dollars!"

"70 million dollars!"

"80 million dollars!"

"90 million dollars!"

One after another, everyone raised their paddles. This land could be used for real estate development. Once the development was completed, it could be sold for at least one billion dollars.

"200 million dollars!" Elias raised his paddle. He had to get this piece of land.

"500 million dollars!" Remus' voice sounded again. Hearing this price, everyone was silent. That bid was too high, and it messed everything up.

"That's too high of a bid, Mr. Cosby!" Naomi quickly reminded him. 500 million was jus

    Kylie was furious when she heard this. He was a criminal who got out of prison. Without his good luck, no one would ever have hired him. Yet, he thought she was annoying him? She unhappily replied, "You really have a massive ego. One day, you'll definitely be begging me instead. When that time comes, don't ever forget how you treated me today!" There was no way Miranda would marry him, and Jean would also abandon him one day. At that point, he would be nothing. Remus didn't bother to answer her. Instead, he turned around and left."You…" Kylie was so angry that she was speechless. Why was he acting like this? If she hadn't asked Ben to save him yesterday, he would have been beaten to death by the Dragon Head. He was such a traitorous and ungrateful brat. If she had known, she wouldn't have saved him.She quickly ran in front of him."Stop right there!" Kylie said angrily. "I came to see you for two reasons. First, I want you to forgive Mr. Lawson and not retaliate against him. S

    “Fool!” Remus said.“What did you say?” Ben was furious. How dare he curse him!“Calm down, Mr. Stuart.” Kylie hurriedly stopped him. Although Remus was unbearable to deal with, she couldn’t let him cause trouble. He had a reputation now, and he might lose it in the future.However, Ben was different. He was the heir of Sky Group, and that would never change.She turned and scolded him. “Remus, hurry up and apologize to Mr. Stuart. Do you know that he was the one who saved you at Draculus Court yesterday? He’s your savior. Don’t be ungrateful and apologize.” After she spoke, she kept giving him a look.“He saved me, you say?” Remus looked at Ben, amused.Ben was initially aggressive, but when he heard this, he felt a little guilty.However, Kylie didn’t notice, and continued, “Why else do you think the Dragon Head would let you go? Mr. Stuart personally went to see him! Hurry up and apologize! This is for your own good, do you understand?”Without any warning, Remus slapped Ben

    When Ben walked in, Skylar regained consciousness. He was panting heavily on the chair. Yet, his anger had not subsided! Remus had him kneel in front of everyone. Also, Skylar had spent 1.3 billion dollars on buying a piece of land. He had lost both his dignity and money!"How are you, Dad?" Ben rushed in, worried. Skylar waved his hand. He wasn't in the mood to look at his son now. He slowly got up, clasped his hands together, and said, "Everyone, I'm pretty sure you saw what happened just now, so I'm not going to hold myself back. I want to ask if any of you would like to develop this piece of land with me!"The conference hall was completely silent. Everyone looked at Skylar as if he was a fool. This piece of land was worth about seven billion dollars at the most. Any more than that, and it wasn't worth it anymore. Now that he spent 1.3 billion dollars on it, any investors in the project would just lose money. Only a fool would do that!"I'm glad to see that you’re better now,

    Max and Frank were both stunned by her attitude. At the same time, they both frowned, feeling like something was amiss. Jean didn’t explain further and said directly, “Uncle Frank, Uncle Max, you two must be busy. You’re carrying the burdens and hopes of the people, so don’t waste your time on me.”The two of them looked at each other, shaking their heads and sighing.Max stood up and said seriously, ”Remember, you must never harm others, but you should always be on guard. Remus has been to prison!”Frank also instructed, “If you notice something off about him, contact me immediately. I’ll handle him!”As soon as they were done talking, the door opened. Remus walked in. Acting as if he had just found out they were here, he said in surprise, “Oh? You guys are here. I wanted to see you. Yesterday, I forgot to tell you guys that the medicine I gave you will have some side effects, and your condition will become more serious than before!”The two men were a little confused. Why was

    Seeing his reaction, Jean smiled. Remus was getting more and more interesting. He could even face Max and Frank without fear, yet he was so nervous when she teased him.Then, she bit her lip and asked, “Don’t tell me you’re still an innocent young man?”Embarrassed, Remus cursed Master Tyson in his heart. If it weren’t for him, he wouldn’t even be here. Unable to hear another word from her, Remus shook her hand away. He quickly sat on the sofa, and said solemnly, “Sit down, Jean. I have something to say!”He was going to put all the chips down. If she approved, they would get married. If not, they would break it off.Baffled by his attitude, Jean asked after thinking, “You want to know why I came to Neptuna and why this concerns my entire life?”He must have been acting like this because he overheard the conversation.“Why?” Remus was indeed curious. But he disliked poking his nose into people’s secrets. If Jean hadn’t brought it up, he wouldn’t have asked.“Well…” Jean sighed.

    Both of them were startled by the phone. Jean opened her eyes. Her face was as warm as the sun. Uncharacteristically, she turned around, not daring to look at Remus. She clenched her fists, muttering, "You weren't really tempted, were you?"Remus coughed in embarrassment and took out his phone. The name on the caller ID was Miranda. He didn't want to answer it, but he wouldn't know what to say to Jean if he didn't."What do you want!" He picked up the phone."Come to Neptuna Hotel. We need to talk!" Miranda’s tone was cold and repulsive."I don't have the time!" Remus immediately hung up the phone. He hated being told what to do.Unsurprisingly, Miranda called again. "When your master arranged the engagement, he left something behind. Come and get it!" After speaking, she quickly hung up the phone.Remus frowned. He sincerely didn't want to see Miranda again, but if it involved his master, he had to go. "I have some things to attend to.""Go ahead!" Jean still didn't look at Rem

    Compared with those guys in prison, the richest people in Neptuna meant nothing to him. They weren't even qualified to get into Underhill Prison."What did you say?" Miranda was furious. It was the first time in her life that she heard someone calling the richest family in Neptuna ordinary! No one in Neptuna would ever say that! She said angrily, "Remus, I’m trying very hard to control myself right now. So, do not take my tolerance as permission to act rudely! No one in Neptuna has dared to talk to me like this!" she shouted, attracting everyone's attention."Who is this guy?""He doesn't look familiar!""How dare he offend Miranda? Does he not want to live anymore?"Remus thought it was useless to argue with her. He couldn't reason with a woman, so he said, "There's no need for us to talk. Just give me what I came here for, and we'll steer clear of each other from now on." "No way!" The more Remus downplayed the situation, the more uncomfortable Miranda felt. What right did he

    Although Remus was mad, it was not a good idea to lose his position. They didn’t have to take it to such an extent. So, he said, “Sonny, there’s nothing for you to deal with here. I can handle it myself.” However, Sonny would never give up on a chance to show off. He smiled and said, “Miranda, leave it to me! Don’t worry!” Then, he looked at Remus and threatened, “I’ll give you one last chance to apologize to Miranda right now. I’m not kidding. I’m the king at Neptuna Hotel, and no one dares to disobey me!”When Sonny finished, he leaned forward, looking aggressive. Seeing that, Miranda frowned as she knew he had gone overboard. It was useless to persuade him to stop now. As for the other diners, they became excited, waiting for a good show to start. Unfortunately, Remus didn’t take it to heart. He laughed, “If you’re the king, what is your father then? You must be mistaken. You’re not the king; you’re just a joker. Don’t embarrass your family by making yourself a fool.”The p

    Silas remained silent, though on the other hand, Brandon became agitated. He turned to Kaiser and snapped, "What nonsense are you talking about, suggesting Talonia should help Darsia through tough times? Don't even think about it."Putting aside whether Darsia even has the strength to be allies with Talonia right now—even if it did, why would we join forces against Amelicon?"Amelicon may have been unjust for many years, but we share the same roots and origins. Darsia, on the other hand, is a completely different world—there's absolutely no possibility for cooperation!"He planned to deal with Amelicon later—his priority was to eliminate Darsia first.Kaiser calmly turned to Brandon. "Let's not get worked up here. I admit you have a point, but please think it through."Have there ever been any conflicts or disputes of interest between Darsia and Talonia in history? No, because we're far enough apart, and the distance gives us the space to work things out."Now, consider Talonia a

    Brandon was dumbfounded and couldn't understand why such an unusual event was happening. Could it really be that Silas was going to make an appearance?Indeed, the swirling clouds above suddenly ceased their movement, revealing a mystical doorway to a void. Though it seemed thousands of miles away, it appeared as if it were right in front of them. The door was both magnificent and exuded a sense of ancient simplicity.The door then slowly opened, and a voice came from within. "Come on up!"The voice stunned everyone. Silas had truly made an appearance. They all knew before this that Talonia had a main deity, but no one had ever seen him. Never did they think they would be able to hear Silas' voice in their lifetime.The people around were filled with devotion, all kneeling with expressions of contentment on their faces."No..." Brandon was the most upset. It had taken him a lot of effort to get Silas to show up initially, trying every method imaginable. Now, with just a few words

    Kaiser's reason for being here was to sow discord, create alliances, and manipulate the other party. To put it plainly, he needed to make sure that when Talonia attacked Darsia, they wouldn't put in their full effort and possibly even stab Amelicon in the back.The person he needed to meet was someone who could determine the entire Talonia's direction.His reason for meeting with Brandon was because, in the conventional sense, he was the one who could determine Talonia's direction. But in today's world, was he really the one who could shape the situation?No. The one who truly had the power to determine the course was their main deity, Silas!Additionally, the original plan was to meet with Brandon with the hope of meeting Silas through him, or at least persuading Silas via his influence. Now, since meeting with Brandon was not possible, was there a chance of directly meeting Silas instead?It was not about whether it was possible but about making it happen! Things had already rea

    "Did Kaiser really say that?" asked a stout old man sitting in an office chair upstairs. He wore glasses and appeared quite refined, but despite his scholarly appearance, his sharp and savvy nature was evident. It was none other than Brandon Nielson, Talonia's president."Yes!" the old man respectfully responded. "And he said these words in a very angry tone. It seems that his patience has truly reached its limit.""Limits?" Brandon dismissively remarked, "Humans have no limits, or rather, I want to see where his limits lie. Just leave him be, and don't bother with him."Does he really think that threats will work? It's laughable. He talks about fighting to the bitter end, but I'd love to see how he plans to do that. Haha."The old man appeared hesitant and, after some thought, said, "Mr. President, shouldn't you reconsider? With a major conflict approaching, we don't need to provoke Kaiser."If he decides to target us during the final battle for personal reasons, it could cost us

    Time ticked by. Before Kaiser realized it, it was nighttime again.At this point, Kaiser realized that what the man said was merely a bait. In simpler terms, the man deliberately found a reason to get Kaiser to wait there. It was very likely he had reported to Brandon, but Brandon chose to make him continue waiting anyway.A weak country had no diplomatic influence!Kaiser was furious but helpless. After all, Darsia was in a fragile state. They were at the mercy of others with no room for negotiation. All he could do was wait.Kaiser's stomach kept rumbling. The last time he ate was when he arrived, and it'd been two full days and nights without any food or water. He could handle the physical torture, but the real challenge was the mental struggle. He had no idea when he'd be able to meet with Brandon.Finally, another day had passed, and the sound of birds chirping could be heard outside the window again.The door finally opened again, and an old man with a distinctly Talonian f

    Kaiser looked over immediately.A middle-aged man dressed in a sharp suit with blond hair and blue eyes, embodying the classic features of someone from Talonia, walked in. Kaiser recognized him as a department head from Talonia, though he wasn't very high-ranking in the country.Kaiser looked around to see if he was accompanied by anyone but noticed that he was alone."Mr. Geer, I've come specifically to apologize to you," the man said. "Due to an oversight by our staff, we accidentally forgot that you were here yesterday. Everyone left after work, leaving you here overnight. On Talonia's behalf, I apologize to you."Apologize? Though he was apologizing, his expression didn't show any sincerity at all. It was like he deliberately chose a poor excuse, claiming he forgot after work last night.It clearly seemed like he was mocking Kaiser. How could someone forget about and leave another country's president waiting for so long?"It's okay." Kaiser, still smiling despite having not s

    Grant wasn't the only one to find Halvor's behavior strange, but even the surrounding deities thought it odd. They'd been around each other for hundreds of years and understood each other's personalities all too well.Knowing Halvor, he would either go big or go home. While they knew Halvor had a point, how could he tolerate it when Grant had disrespected him to this degree?But the truth was, only Halvor knew the real reason he had left."That was close!" Halvor, who had returned to the void, let out a sigh of relief.Yet, at that exact moment, he suddenly heard a cracking sound from within himself, and in an instant, he was frozen in place.The sound wasn't just a single occurrence—it continued persistently, eventually turning into a roaring noise. When it reached its peak, it abruptly stopped, and everything returned to silence.Halvor stood there in shock, unable to come to his senses for a long time."No!" he suddenly howled, and his whole demeanor turned frenzied. His avat

    Everything went quiet as Halvor came to a stop. His robe was left in tatters, offering no cover whatsoever, leaving him completely exposed. The same happened to the avatar behind him, with nothing left for concealment."You're... You're courting death!" Halvor was in an absolute rage as his energy burst out uncontrollably. Its intensity was more than double that of his previous most powerful attack.Clothing was typically so closely associated with the body that it formed part of one's outward image.This was even more so for avatars, where the clothing was almost inseparable. After all, an avatar was not a physical entity, making it nearly impossible for the clothing to be damaged or torn.Yet, Grant's attack had left him exposed in front of so many deities. How would Halvor face anyone in the future?Grant remained in his previous position, merely laughing and looking at Halvor. He pointed at him and said, "No wonder you can say such vile things. It turns out you're small-minded

    "I've been patient with you so far, but you've repeatedly taken advantage of that as a license to act out. Since that's the case, go to hell!"To show off his strength, Halvor intentionally made a comment before his energy burst out, tightly wrapping around the black whip.The whip suddenly shattered, going from a single strand to breaking into countless pieces in the blink of an eye. Then, it transformed into a cloud of black smoke and dissipated.His plan was to use his avatar at this point of the fight to cause Grant to despair or to turn and flee. If that happened, taking him down afterward would elevate his prestige to the highest level.However, Grant didn't run away. Instead, his energy churned even more thickly as he snapped, "You uneducated and petty scoundrel, do you think you can bark in my presence? In Darsia, I am one of the ghost kings of the Underworld."Even outside of Darsia, I am someone you insignificant people from other domains could never reach. So what if I
