Chapter 556: Peripheral Auction (Part II)

"First of all, look at the first lot of the day! a stand-in doll made by a voodoo witch doctor in Haiti! It can defend the holder from a fatal accident! The starting price is five gold dinars!"

"Five!"

"Six!"

"Eight!"

"Ten!"

......

As the first item was put on the podium, the lower audience began to increase the price.

It can be seen that most of these fierce fighters are ordinary people who do not have any supernatural powers.

Some of them are billionaires who have served the parliament for a long time, others are gang members such as the mafia, and in short, they are the kind of outsiders who have money but do not know much about the power system of the underworld.

Seeing the price rising, Elizabeth finally couldn't help but lower her voice and asked, "Honey, don't you make a bid? That's a good thing to save your life at a critical moment." ”

"Help, hehe, no, that thing can withstand the power of bullets and bombs at most, and it can't do anything against real magic and curses. If you like, I can make dozens of them in half an hour. Zhang Cheng made no secret of his contempt for the so-called "stand-in dolls".

It may be able to sell for a high price in a place where the popularity of magic is very low, such as the continent of Westeros in the world of A Song of Ice and Fire, otherwise this thing can only deceive ordinary people who don't understand anything.

"Oh, you know magic objects?" a white man in his early thirties stuck his head out of the back row.

"Are you?" Zhang Cheng subconsciously frowned.

I don't know if it's because of his personality, he has never liked this kind of "open-mouthed brothers, closed-mouthed friends" self-acquaintance.

The white man smiled awkwardly and introduced himself, "My name is Chester Basham. You may have never heard my name, but my family owns a certain amount of stock that includes the big six Hollywood studios and most of the mainstream media, and from my grandfather's generation, he helped the council control public opinion and ensure that the underground world never came out of the eyes of ordinary people. ”

"So you're a billionaire?" said Elizabeth, her eyes widening in curiosity.

"That's right, but here, the dollar clearly has little purchasing power. The white man who identified himself as Chester Basham had a helpless expression.

What is the most painful thing for a billionaire?

Naturally, money can't buy what you want.

Between the production and rarity of the golden dinars, even if they were purchased in unlimited quantities for dollars, they would definitely not be able to buy much.

Looking at this guy who was a little sad on the surface, Zhang Cheng suddenly asked, "Tell me, how many gold dinars do you have on hand, and what type of things do you plan to buy?"

"There are only three hundred and fifty pieces, and I mainly plan to buy some magic items that can cure cancer or extend life. Chester Basham didn't try to hide anything, and generously stated the purpose of his boarding.

In order to be invited, he spent a lot of money and used up almost all his favors.

"You're terminally ill?"

Zhang Cheng squinted his eyes and looked up and down, completely unable to feel the lesions on the other party's body.

Chester Basham hurriedly waved his hand: "No, it's not me, it's my son who is just three years old." He had pediatric non-Hodgkin's malignant lymphoma, which had spread in an advanced stage, and science could not save him. As a father, the only thing I can do now is seek the last shred of life from the supernatural. ”

"Poor dear, can you help this child?" Elizabeth, who was relatively sensual, began to flood with sympathy, staring at her boyfriend with expectant eyes.

"Well, just this once. Give me all the gold diners you are carrying, and take this with you. As he spoke, Zhang Cheng took out a small bottle of potion that emitted a green glow from his pocket and stuffed it into the other party's hand.

"Can this really cure lymphoma?" Chester Basham carefully held the medicine bottle in the palm of his hand, and his whole body trembled slightly involuntarily.

"Yes, to be exact, it can cure all diseases, curses, poisons, and negative magical effects. Tonic potions, you deserve it. Zhang Cheng smiled and forcibly advertised the potion he had concocted.

"Wait a minute, I'll be back!"

Chester Basham's mind was obviously no longer at the auction, and he hurriedly ran out with the potion.

Seeing the heart-saving father disappear into the corridor, Zhang Cheng shrugged his shoulders and continued to pay attention to the new items that had just been taken out on the table.

But unfortunately, the first auction today is clearly for fooling the ordinary people who do not know how to do it, more than eighty percent of the things are of little use, and the price is inflated, only one enchanted flintlock pistol from the seventeenth century is not bad, but it is too cumbersome to reload, and it was finally bought by an old Jewish man for eighty gold dinars.

After the first auction came to an end, the two quickly left the venue and went to the restaurant on the third floor to have a bite to eat, and then went to the casino on the second floor to play two laps to try their luck.

As a first-hand luxury cruise ship, the recreational facilities are quite complete, and there is even a miniature golf course and a large indoor pool, so guests can continue to enjoy the best service even when it is snowing outside.

In addition, there are two days before the finale auction, and there are not many people, which is a good opportunity to have fun.

But just as the young man and woman had just come to the restaurant and sat down before they could finish the menu, another uninvited guy appeared.

"Good afternoon, wizard from the East, my name is Anthony Marcus, I wonder if you can spare some time to have lunch with me?"

"Marcus?" Zhang Cheng raised his head and glanced at the other party, a cold light flashing in his pupils that was not easy to detect.

Because this guy with a big back was very unreasonable to stand between him and Elizabeth, as if the girl was a ball of air and did not exist at all, and that kind of condescending attitude was also very uncomfortable.

"That's right! My family and I are descendants of Rudolph of the Scythe of Death, the second leader of the Supreme Council of North America. Anthony apparently didn't notice that he had made a huge mistake and nodded proudly.

He believed that no one in the land of North America could refuse an invitation from himself and the Marcus family.

"Sorry, not interested. Also, you're blocking my girlfriend. Zhang Cheng issued an eviction order without thinking.

Anthony undoubtedly didn't expect such a situation, and his tone immediately became stiff: "Are you sure you don't think about it anymore?"

"Three!"

A cold number popped out of Zhang Cheng's mouth.

"What do you mean?"

"Two!"

"Are you threatening me?"

"One!"

......

As the last word blurted out, Zhang Cheng raised his hand and snapped his fingers lightly.

Bang!

Anthony's whole body suddenly exploded without warning!

Blood, minced flesh and offal are splattered everywhere!

Not only Elizabeth was stunned, but even the guests around her who were dining were stunned.

They couldn't believe that someone in the world would kill someone on the ship of the Supreme Council, and it was a direct member of the Marcus family!
