Chapter 638 Collateral
It is under such a general premise that the appearance of the Life Crystal made everyone feel itchy. The Xi'an League official compromised after only a short period of resistance. The Xi'an League issued a serious protest to the Hua'an League, protesting the Hua'an League's behavior of not inviting them to participate in the auction. The diplomatic rhetoric was very high-sounding. They said that the Life Crystal and Transformation belong to all mankind. Although the Life Crystal was obtained by the Hua'an League, since the auction was held, the Xi'an League should also be qualified to participate.
Huameng's reply was more clever. The official reply from Huameng was that because the Ximeng did not recognize Huameng's reconnaissance of the plunderers, it was accused that the Ximeng believed that the life crystal obtained by Huameng was not real. In order to avoid disputes, the Ximeng did not invite the Ximeng side.
The war of verbalism between the two sides began, but as the auction got closer, the original tough attitude of the Xi'an League gradually softened. After all, those in power could not bear the responsibility of the Xi'an League's inability to participate in the auction. You should know that all politicians have the support of the consortium. If those hidden forces give up their support for them, they will be nothing, let alone re-elected.
Therefore, in the end, the Xi'an League had to compromise with the China League, acknowledging the China League's results of the plundering of Samsung reconnaissance, and at the same time, it also made compromises in some aspects. However, even so, they still paid a greater price to be allowed to participate in the auction.
The collateral of each participating party in the Beim League is a battleship, while the Xim League is an expeditionary-class battleship higher than that. You should know that the warships are one level different, and their value is calculated ten times. There are 27 final participating parties determined by the Xim League, which are twenty-seven main battleships! Their value is also equivalent to two command-class giant ships. Such a high collateral is definitely the first time in the history of auction.
Of course, the Ximeng League can conduct auctions in a unified manner, but in the face of such a high value existence, trusting such things is not so easy to exist. In particular, no one wants the life crystal they have taken to be known. Huameng League allows anonymous participation in the auction. Of course, you can also participate in the auction openly, as long as you are willing.
The Western League paid the price for its previous stupidity, and the first one to be affected was the Osdi family. Because they strongly advocated confrontation with the China League, they had no choice but to pay for such a big problem this time. Many consortiums naturally calculated the losses on them. Fortunately, it was just a collateral. If even the auction price was affected, the Osdi family might have to bear greater pressure.
There is no doubt that in this political confrontation, Huameng instantly reversed the situation with the powerful temptation of the Life Crystal and slapped it hard in the face of Ximeng. This was the first time that Huameng, which has always been the weakest, has gained such an advantage.
The appraisal day finally arrived with the expectations of many senior forces. In order to participate in this auction, everyone paid a considerable price. To participate in the auction, the first thing to do is to determine whether the item they want. Therefore, representatives sent by all parties have enough eyesight or have participated in the research on metamorphosis.
Huameng official issued a statement that all appraisers participating in the appraisal on the appraisal date must strictly follow the appraisal rules. If any appraiser has problems or even steals, then the party he represents will be directly disqualified from the bidding, and the collateral will not be refunded. Such a provision is understandable, which is both a constraint and a manifestation of fairness.
The venue for the appraisal day was not officially notified until the day before the appraisal day. When the participants learned about the location of the appraisal day, they were moved. Even the participants who had originally had some dirty ideas couldn't help but restrain themselves after learning about this place.
Tianhuo Museum!
A simple and straightforward name. But the meaning it represents is so shocking. The fortune teller's former residence.
Although the fortune teller has passed away, this powerful master, known as the Eye of the Future, is the most mysterious one among all the masters. Who can be sure of what he left before leaving? What's more, the fortune teller's significance to the Heavenly Fire Avenue. Anyone who knows a little about the Heavenly Fire Avenue knows that if someone dares to act here, he will inevitably be hit by the Heavenly Fire Avenue with all his strength.
Not everyone can enter the Sky Fire Avenue, but it is no doubt that it is the most powerful organization in the world of superpowers today. In recent years, Tianhuo Avenue has frequently produced masters, and it has shown the powerful strength of its younger generation in the Superpowers Competition, and finally won the championship, thus allowing the overall strength of the Tianhuo Avenue to continue to soar in front of the assessors. Now it has completely become an existence beyond the two major castles and major alliances.
As one of the bidders who represented the Beimeng to participate in the auction, Chu Dong, the head of the family, came here in person. It was the first time he came to Tianhuo Avenue. From his son, Chu Dong had heard of many deeds about Tianhuo Avenue, but when he really came here, he felt completely different.
As soon as he walked into Tianhuo Avenue, he fell in love with it. Chu Dong liked all kinds of ancient things very much, and Tianhuo Avenue was like a perfect architectural exhibition in the Shangyuan era. Every building lined with both sides of the street was so exquisite. Whether it was the five ridges and six beast carvings and jade bricks of Chinese buildings, or the spire of Gothic buildings, or the complexity of Gao German buildings, each one had a thrilling beauty in his eyes.
Looking at these, he couldn't help but stop, his eyes a little intoxicated. He even forgot the purpose of the trip.
At this moment, he suddenly felt something and subconsciously turned his gaze in one direction.
With four eyes connected, Chu Dong's mind stuttered slightly, and his mood to admire the architecture disappeared in an instant.
It's him!
The touching eyes became complicated in an instant, no wonder he was like this. How many years have you not seen him in so many years? He has less heroic energy from that time, but he has become a little more steady and old city. Even though he has become a master of a generation, the years have left traces on his face.
The foodie strode towards Chudong and stopped three meters away from him.
"Brother..." a simple word called, but it seemed so difficult for the foodie at this moment. His voice was a little hard, even a little trembling, and his eyes were already red.
When he was a child, Chu Dong and Chu Xi brothers had a very good relationship. Chu Dong was eight years older than Chu Xi and took good care of his younger brother since he was a child. He had never been jealous of his younger brother's talent. Although he worked harder than his younger brother's cultivation, he looked forward to his younger brother becoming the pillar of the family. They practiced together, played together, and spent their youth together.
Even during the most painful period of Chu Xi, he never hated his brother, because the people in power in the family were always their father, Chu Yun, the iron-blooded Chu family leader. From childhood to adulthood, when Chu Xi was punished, I don’t know how many times Chu Dong guarded him and helped him take on the responsibility silently.
And all this happened twenty years ago.
"Bang--" Chu Dong punched his brother's chest, causing the gourmet to slide backwards and stop.
With a flash of figure, Chu Dong had already arrived in front of him in the next moment, grabbed his front and stared at him with a sharp look as sharp as a knife. "You bastard!"
The gourmet with the title of the Lord of the Guardian of the Underworld is like a child who has made a mistake at this moment, with his hands hanging on both sides of his body, without any intention of resisting, and his eyebrows are down and he is completely willing to fight and be willing to be beaten and beaten.
"Do you know..." Chu Dong's eyes also turned red.
The foodie's body was slightly trembling, and the punch was hit was a little painful, but it obviously did not contain any energy, and only pure power and a sense of resentment.
"Do you know..., I miss you so much!" Chu Dong suddenly pulled the foodie closer, let go of the hand that grabbed his front, turned to open his arms, and hugged his brother whom he hadn't seen for nearly twenty years.
The foodie was stunned for a moment, and the next moment, he was hesitant and hugged his tall brother who was tall but had white hair.
"Brother, I'm sorry." Sorry, these three words were spoken from the foodie, like a heavy burden. These three words lingered in his heart for a long time. Since he was promoted to the Lord, his mind has gained a lot of power. After thinking about everything in the past, he gradually figured out many things. He was completely sure that the death of his lover should have nothing to do with the family. Those obvious traces, now, are they framed?
After letting go of the hug, Chu Dong pinched the corners of his eyes, and the wet tears were quietly evaporated by the flames of the Pluto. "Why not come back? You should have understood what happened back then. The old man has such a stubborn temper, and you are the same. You are more like him than me. Is it that difficult to go back? He is old..."
When he said the last three words, Chu Dong's eyes couldn't help but become wet again.
