After buying the domain crystal, Kent didn’t bid on any other items. The remaining items were two mystical-grade swords, which were bought by Val and Mara.
The flying sword was made from the spine of a beast known as the Nimble Spine Rabbit. It was thin and deadly, and according to the description read by Alina, its speed triples when in use.
In fact, the silent nature of the sword’s movement, combined with its durability and lethality, caused the bidding to last for 30 minutes, with Val ultimately purchasing it for 980 billion spirit stones.
She didn’t hesitate to spend her man’s money, unlike her sisters, who were holding back from spending too much.
The last sword was bought by Mara after an intense bidding battle with Sword King Shawn.
In fact, the battle was so intense that if Kent hadn’t intervened and promised to give the Sword King something of equal value, it wouldn’t have ended well.
Mara wanted to buy that sword for her sister, so she didn’t back down from the fight. In the end, however, everything worked out.
Kent walked away with two happy women, and the Sword King would be receiving something of equal value in return.
It was a win-win for both sides. Kent, who knew his life would become chaotic after the auction, could only sigh.
"That was one intense battle. Thankfully, it ended better than we all anticipated. Now, since that is settled, we can move on to the last item, which even I know nothing about.
It was a last-minute addition, specifically requested to be sold as the final item. We don’t know what’s inside, but we know it’s something we cannot ignore, considering the one who brought it—someone we cannot even comprehend."
Alina took a card that was brought to her by another lady. Then, the mechanized table moved, and a 2-meter-wide and tall box, impenetrable to the eye and senses, was revealed.
She opened the card, and for a moment, her expression froze.
"I will now read what the card says, for even I don’t have the mind to fathom just what this is," Alina sighed.
"Hello, everyone. If you are reading this, then I would like to announce to the entire continent that the Berserker Lava Wolf, one of the five Forest Kings in the Wild Forest, is dead.
Its body, still perfectly intact, is to be auctioned at a starting bid of 800 billion. Attached to the body of the Berserker Lava Wolf is a token that will grant you unhindered access to the calamity zone of the Wild Forest for one month.
Thank you, and may the rich walk away with more power."
The entire auction house turned quiet. Not even a peep was made, considering what had just been read was something nobody saw coming.
In fact, everybody, including Kent, was stunned. The words still hang in the air, with my body trying to even ask anything.
A Forest King is dead, and his body is now being auctioned. That is just too much.
Who killed him?
How did he die?
Was this a natural death?
Just what the hell is going on?
There are so many questions, but the most important one is: who will walk away with this body? In fact, the most important question should be: will the winner of this body even be able to keep it after the auction?
The body is a treasure.
The blood is a treasure.
The bones are treasures.
Basically, everything about the Forest King is a treasure of immense value. So, no matter who buys it, the end will be the same.
People will go after them, and no matter where they hide, they will be found until they are dead and the body is taken from them.
"This is going to be a bit dangerous," Kent said, but he wasn’t looking to lose this body to anyone.
"Do you really have to do this?" Selene asked with a serious expression.
"I have no choice. If I let this chance go, I wouldn’t be able to get this lucky ever again, and protecting you ladies is my priority," Kent said, smiling.
"But we should be the ones protecting you," Unity said, bowing her head. The ladies all shared the same look.
They don’t know why Kent is doing all this, but they know it’s very important to him. However, the odds are just too much to go against.
"You ladies will soon have the power to protect me. Trust me, soon I will be relying on you all. But until then, let me brave the danger and ensure no harm comes to you all." His smile was still playing on his lips. Continue your adventure with freewebnovel
He has become stronger, but going against sword kings and Pill Saints is not something he can take lightly. But he is also going to have to show some strength if he wants his life to return to normal again.
"I will send you ladies away now. Just go into the pool and relax. It will take a couple of weeks before you see me again, but don’t worry, I will come back to you all."
"It will be like I haven’t even left," Kent smiled and sent them away.
⟪The master should know that just this body is enough to create over five Undeads, each between the Transcendent and Ascension stage.⟫
’Why not create a Forest King instead? That will make things easy for me.’
Updat𝓮d from frёewebnoѵēl.com.
⟪That, indeed, is true. But do you really want that?⟫
’What is that supposed to mean?’ Kent asked.
⟪Do you know why such a creature was eliminated? Of course, you don’t. But if I am not mistaken, it’s all about power.
Just like how you will be hunted down if you end up buying this body, the moment it’s found out that you have a Forest King as a subordinate, your life will forever be in danger.
I can even see the Forest Kings from the various forests coming after you. And let me tell you, there are more than ten Forest Kings in just this continent alone. So please, let’s preserve your life while you grow your strength.
You must at least become a Sword Sage before taking such a step. Right now, you have a Transcendent undead and a metal doll. Show everyone you are no pushover for they will never learn until a few are dead.⟫
⟪And since you can upgrade your undead later, creating a Forest King wouldn’t be a hassle in the future.⟫
’I see. In that case, I will be buying four more Battle Dolls. The next couple of days or weeks will be dangerous.’
⟪I will make arrangements, master.⟫
