Chapter 118-Snake
Jiang Chen felt a connection to the sword, and he was delighted to get it. He thanked Dave many times and was very grateful to him. Not only had Dave saved him and healed his injuries, but he had also willingly spent such wealth for the sword.
Roco looked at him with envy but decided that he must gain the favor of Young Master Dave so that no one would have the guts to provoke him in the future. He resolved to become a loyal follower and do whatever Dave commanded.
Dave smiled, but he didn't care. Jiang Chen hid the sword for now because they were still in the auction.
Rain saw that everyone had already calmed down, but some still felt envious of the new owner of the sword. Rain smiled and took out the third item for auction.
She waved her hand, and a 1-meter white snake appeared in front of everyone. It was chained by an extraordinary chain, and it couldn't move its body. The snake's scales were shining, and its eyes were crimson.
"This snake is mysterious, and even the elders don't know its origin. Don't be fooled by its looks because it has killed thousands of people in the forest, and its venom is very deadly. The elders personally dealt with this snake because it was very tricky to catch, and it can even escape from an Imperial Saint King,"
Rain introduced.
Everyone was shocked, and they didn't expect to see such an interesting snake. To escape from an Imperial Saint King, the snake must be extraordinary. No one recognized its origin, but its strength made others want to acquire it.
It could be a good pet if tamed, or they could sell it at a higher price.
Dave looked at the snake and mumbled, "Interesting."
He didn't expect to encounter so many interesting things today.
Grace looked at the snake and felt a close connection to it. Dave noticed her look and asked, "You want that snake?"
Grace nodded and said, "I don't know, but I feel some connection to the snake right now."
Dave smiled and said, "You can really feel a connection to the snake because it is related to the blessing you have."
Grace was stunned and asked, "You mean it's related to the Blessing of the Goddess of Death?"
She felt that it was impossible, but she trusted Dave, and he had shown them a lot of miracles. Dave's ways could not be explained by normal things, so she didn't doubt him.
Dave nodded and explained, "That snake is called the Underworld King Snake."
"It is a species that reveres the goddess of death, and the darker their color, the stronger they are. It means that the snake in front of us is only a newborn snake, but its strength is already terrifying, and it can kill an Imperial Lord if they were bitten by it."
Jiang Chen and Roco, who were standing nearby, were stunned by the revelation, and they didn't doubt Dave's words. Grace was also shocked, so she now realized why she felt a slight connection to it.
Since she was plotted against by the Goddess of Death when they entered the trial, where they had to kill each other with her friends, she felt despair because she didn't want to be under someone's control.
Even though it gave her strong power, the feeling of having her life controlled by others made her uncomfortable.
That's the reason why she agreed to Dave's proposal and let him help her remove the control of that Goddess.
"Also, that snake is immune to Dark Energies and can devour others to become stronger,"
Dave explained, and nothing could escape the system as long as he paid the price. The money grabber system found ways to collect sin points from him because he was blind right now.
His sin points were rising steadily, but he didn't bother to see it because he didn't need them for the time being.
He still had missions to accomplish. If he couldn't find a way to comprehend laws, then he would just save sin points and buy the law orbs in the system shop, even if they were pricey.
......
After Rain explained about the snake, everyone made their bids, but it wasn't as exciting as when the sword was auctioned, as some didn't have the guts to tame such a dangerous snake.
The starting price was 400,000 spirit stones, and many bid to get it.
"500,000."
"600,000."
"650,000."
Many who came from prominent families with strong backgrounds wanted to acquire the snake. They looked at room no.7 to see if he was bidding.
Their anticipation wasn't in vain, as Dave indeed bid.
"Hmm, such a snake can be my wife's pet. 20 million spirit stones."
Everyone was shocked, and they didn't expect him to pay such a high price again.
They felt that he was prodigal, and it was not worth it like the sword, but how would some ordinary folks know it's worth?
Also, Dave didn't feel bitter while spending money because his grandmother, the matriarch, owned the auction hall, so it could be considered as helping her and a gift for her.
He had a good impression of her, and it could be considered a payment for the token she gave him.
He heard from his father that even the elders didn't dare to argue with her if she wanted to give a token on her own.
He was still thinking of a gift he could give her on her birthday three days later, but he still had time to think of it.
Also, the snake was for Grace, so he didn't bother to think of its price.
"Who is really that wealthy person in room no.7?"
"He is very wealthy. I wish I was his wife."
Many envied his wife for having such a husband who was willing to spend money just to please her.
Grace looked at Dave with a smile and felt that Dave's image had changed from despicable to lovely.
Dave smirked and patted her head. He didn't mind spoiling his lover, and Grace rarely asked him for things, so he must get this snake.
