Chapter 649: Chapter 643 Threat Down
“300 million.” Finn Lewis raised the number once again, causing a stir among many people outside. Many sucked in a breath of cold air. If you add up the amount that Finn has spent before this, the mysterious number 88 has spent a total of 400 million in this auction alone. For these organizations, this amount of money is astronomical.
“Sir, if this is about our previous issues, we at Blackwater Sect would like to apologize formally. I believe there may be some misunderstandings between us.” The middle-aged man from Blackwater Sect couldn’t help but speak up again. He then added a new bid, “301 million.”
“I’m sorry, it has nothing to do with previous issues. I’m also very interested in this item, and I’m determined to win it. So, we can only decide the outcome based on our respective financial strengths.” Finn Lewis calmly replied, “350 million.”
Many people in the booths outside couldn’t stand it anymore. Finn Lewis’s bidding style was suffocating. Is this an auction, or is it about money bludgeoning? He added 50 million every time. Everyone knew that at the end of the auction, even a million could perhaps determine the outcome, but he raises the bid by 50 million each time.
This is truly an act of wealthy capriciousness.
“Sir, if that’s the case, we kindly ask you to give this to us. We at Blackwater Sect value this highly. If possible, you will gain our friendship. We can guarantee that you will not encounter any pirates within the Galactic Federation.” The middle-aged man couldn’t help but say.
“I apologize, I believe that my properties won’t face any pirates. Of course, if pirates still decide to rob me, it’s out of my hands.” Finn chuckled.
Robbery? Well, when the Insect Species find a suitable planet for development, who knows who will be robbing whom? Speaking of robbery, it seems that the Insect Species are the most formidable.
“If that’s the case, we will have to settle this at the auction. If you do not cherish our friendship.” The middle-aged man directly threatened.
After saying that, he directly stated, “400 million.”
Finn raised an eyebrow. Judging from his previous bids, he shouldn’t have this much money. But now he was able to raise 50 million in one go, it seemed that he had a new source of funds. As Finn was guessing, his AI assistant suddenly said, “Master, based on my analysis, it should be the three organizations in the auction that have come together. They have pooled all their funds into his hands.”
“I see.” Finn suddenly realized. No wonder the man became confident. But even so, if three organizations united, judging from their previous situation, they should only be able to put forth 200 to 300 million each. If we calculate based on 300 million, the maximum capital they could bring together would only be 900 million.
“500 million.” Without saying anything else, Finn announced a new price. Hearing his bid, many people outside were overwhelmed. Even the auctioneer was somewhat at a loss for words. Clearly, he hadn’t expected the price of this item to rise to such a terrifying level.
“650 million.” The man from the Blackwater Sect raised the price by another 150 million, obviously, they were also determined. Finn couldn’t help but smile, he lightly said, “Are you trying to prove who has more money? Alright, if that’s the game you want to play, let’s play. 1 billion.”
“Pfft” John Jenkins, who was already a bit tense sitting backstage, involuntarily spit out the tea in his mouth when he heard this figure. He would never have imagined that this guy would raise the price so drastically, and even now his bank account still has so much funds available.
Who on earth is this guy? There are many wealthy people in the Star Bank, but those who can pull out 1 billion star credits are definitely among the top circle of the Galactic Federation, most likely royal families. But he has never heard of such a royal family, they are too magnificent and even the Blackwater Sect’s current operating funds aren’t that much which is terrifying
The most important thing is that he doesn’t even consider money to be an object. It’s clear that he’s out to financially crush you. While Jenkins knew about the Blackwater Sect, he estimated that the maximum they could raise was around 1 billion, but he doubted they would reach that figure.
Indeed, as soon as Finn shouted out this figure, the entire auction site fell silent. It wasn’t until Jenkins spoke several times through a communicator to the auctioneer that he came back to his senses and quickly announced, “I’ll start a countdown. If there are no objections, this source of life will belong to the distinguished guest in booth 88. 10, 9.”
No one objected, because no one could possibly put up that much money. But everyone who attended the auction today was incredibly excited because they witnessed a truly rich man, he doesn’t even see money as money.
In the Death Star, the Blackwater Sect is quite famous, and many here give them some respect. But now the Blackwater Sect has suffered a setback here. This is the first time someone has utterly disregarded the Blackwater Sect’s presence. Despite their threats, it’s as if he doesn’t even see them.
He is financially crushing you. Here, there are rules. After running out of money, even a powerful organization like the Blackwater Sect can’t do anything. It’s useless to talk about power here, whoever has more money is the boss. The strength of both parties is not on the same level at all.
“The Life Source goes to the gentleman in Box 88 for 1 billion.” The auctioneer decisively banged the gavel,
“Sir, while we all value financial strength here, I hope you don’t leave the Death Star. If you do, you should be careful.” The speaker was the leader of the Blackwater Sect. There was not just a threat in his tone, it seemed he was telling Finn that the Blackwater Sect now has their eyes on him.
Finn smiled faintly. If you want to cause trouble on Earth, you’ll need to evade the Supervisory Bureau first. While these pirate groups are impressive, Finn believes if they were truly capable of causing anarchy, they would not be here. The places they can go to throughout the Galactic Heritage System are likely limited.
