After spending two days on the cruise, the number of guests began to increase suddenly early in the morning of the third day.

All of a sudden, hundreds of privileged classes from the underground world of North America gathered together, and some powerful people from Europe, South America, Australia and other regions heard the news and rushed to bid for dragon eggs.

But interestingly, the whole of New York, whether it is a government department or a supposedly ubiquitous journalist, seems to have fallen into temporary blindness in such a large rally, even as the stretched Lincoln sedans continue to shuttle the only road leading to the docks, almost blocking traffic.

Of course, this pomp and circumstance lasted until about 4 p.m., when the giant luxury cruise ship sounded its whistle and slowly sailed out of port.

However, its destination is not the Atlantic Ocean as many people think, but after entering the deep sea, it uses powerful teleportation magic to send huge cruise ships directly from the icy east coast of the United States to the waters of Hawaii, where winter does not exist.

Feeling the bright sunshine and chirping seabirds around her, Elizabeth stood on the third deck in amazement, and it took a minute for her to scream, "Oh my God! It's incredible! It's incredible! Is this the power of magic? In the blink of an eye, we can get rid of the damn weather in New York?"

"Otherwise, how do you think the Council can rule the Underground World for hundreds of years?" Zhang Cheng chuckled and nodded.

In fact, he didn't expect the Supreme Council to spend so much money to build a magical luxury cruise ship, which could not only teleport over long distances, but also go to the sky and into the sea.

Just as Elizabeth was about to say something, Lavern suddenly appeared behind her at some point, and reminded in a low voice: "In ten minutes, the official auction will start, if you don't want to miss it, it's best to come with me now." After all, the first item to sell is the high-grade potion you offered the other day. ”

"Go get busy with you, I'm going to change into a swimsuit and enjoy the sun and sand. The girl winked playfully and took off her headdress, letting her long waterfall blonde hair fall out.

Needless to say, she must have been tempted by the stunning scenery of Hawaii and had no intention of attending the upcoming auction of important items.

"Hehe, okay, have fun. ”

Zhang Cheng had no intention of forcing his girlfriend to follow him, and after kissing the other party's soft lips, he followed Lavern to the huge venue on the lowest level of the yacht.

In contrast to the previous peripheral auction venues, there is a clear use of spatial folding technology, which at first glance looks like a large theater where concerts or operas are held, with three floors: upper, middle and lower.

The lowest level of them is for lords and those less important guests, although it is not densely packed together like a movie theater, but the gap between the positions is definitely not large, and there are purple fluorescent cards on each position, and some magic effects are blessed by visual inspection, which should be used to facilitate the price increase.

The second floor is much more advanced, divided into small private rooms for members from various sub-councils and members of some ancient families.

As for the oversized luxury private rooms on the third floor, they are naturally reserved for the members of the council and representatives of super forces like the Wizarding Association.

In short, this place completely strips away the false lies and cover-ups of ordinary human society, and vividly reflects the strict hierarchy.

"There's a place ahead for you. Laven pointed to the rightmost entrance on the second floor.

"Thank you!"

Zhang Cheng didn't try to say too much useless nonsense to the other party, politely thanked him and immediately walked in and closed the door.

Because he knew that there were too many eyes on him here, and it was definitely not a good thing to be too close to Lafern.

As it turned out, he was not wrong at all.

Just a few private rooms away, an old man with short silver hair was squinting his eyes and observing Zhang Cheng through a crystal ball the size of a fist.

After about two or three minutes, he asked Anthony beside him with a cold face: "Is that him?"

"Yes, father, that's him!" replied Anthony through gritted teeth.

"Interesting! It seems that their relationship is definitely not easy! You must know that Lavern is quite a proud fellow, and he will never deign to show a young man the way unless his strength is recognized. The old man narrowed his eyes and muttered to himself.

You don't have to ask to know that this is none other than Anthony's biological father, Fergill, the current patriarch of the Marcus family.

As soon as he learned that his son had been blown to shreds on the spot and nearly died, he rushed from as far away as Quebec to New York in order to find out the true strength of the enemy.

That's right!

In his eyes, this naked provocation and threat to the Marcus family was enough to be seen as a signal for war.

The only question was that he wasn't sure if the enemy was stronger, or if his own family's centuries-old foundation was stronger, and if a war would lead to heavy losses for the family, and eventually lead to decline and demise?

In fact, a family like Marcus that has a huge influence on the North American underworld is strong and strong, and weak and weak, and the key depends on who the opponent is.

If it is an enemy at the level of an ordinary lord, it is naturally a behemoth that cannot be shaken, and sometimes with just one or two words, they can make half of the underground world in North America unite to launch an encirclement and suppression, and directly drive out the enemy.

But if you change to a powerful faction like Lavern and Faust who stand at the top of the pyramid, the resources that can be used are very limited, at least many people will take the initiative to choose to watch from the wall for the sake of their own lives.

In this way, these ancient families must take out their old roots to fight with each other, due to the gap in strength, many backbones will be exhausted in the fight, and eventually lead to even if they win, they will lose their foothold and slowly decline.

So Virgil had to figure out how heavy he would have to pay if he was to deal with this young man of mysterious origin before taking action.

If it is really the same as Lavern warned, then there is no need to say more, pay the compensation honestly, and even find a way to eliminate the hostility of the other party, even if it is at the expense of his own son.

But if it is a bluff, then he has to weigh the benefits and losses well, and then make a choice.

In fact, many people only see the surface of the scenery of the big family, but they don't realize how much unimaginable pressure and sense of crisis they need to bear to be born in such a family.

As the helmsman of the Marcus family, Virgil once saw his grandfather when he was young, marrying the most intelligent and beautiful daughter in the family to a powerful pervert, and allowing the other party to humiliate, abuse, and destroy him, just to avoid a war that could cause great losses.

Since then, he has understood a truth, in this huge family, personal happiness and life are not important at all, the important thing is to let the family continue......
