Chapter 555: Peripheral Auction (I)
On December 25, the most important annual holiday in the entire Western world, Christmas, finally arrived.
Although most of the inhabitants of the underworld have a strong antipathy towards this liar Jesus, who was manipulated by the forces of heaven, with the rise of the Internet information age and the rampant pop culture, there are still many young people who are willing to relax and relax on this day.
Anyway, for them, the origin of the festival does not matter at all, the important thing is that they can take the opportunity to revelry unbridled and receive gifts from friends and elders.
No, early in the morning, Elizabeth sat under the huge Christmas tree with great interest, tirelessly unpacking the large number of packages that had been sent last night.
Some of them were sent by the strong mother to reward her cheap son for his outstanding performance in the second half of the year, and some were sent by relatives and friends, and there were at least hundreds of them.
Zhang Cheng was not interested in these things that could be classified as miscellaneous things, but when he passed by, he bent down and kissed his girlfriend, and asked with a smile: "How are you feeling these two days?
"Not yet. Elizabeth shook her head regretfully.
Although a few days earlier, the two had already completed their first ritual on the night of the full moon, as required by the Book of Witches.
But for some reason, she has never shown signs of bloodline awakening.
Normally, since Catherine, the witch of desire, would choose her as her new body, the talent should not be bad.
"Don't worry, maybe your upper limit is relatively high, and you will awaken after a few more draws. Zhang Cheng whispered comforting in his girlfriend's ear.
To be honest, he doesn't care if the girl in his arms has superpowers, he just enjoys the double satisfaction that the other party brings to his body and heart.
Kane was right, Catherine's power was so powerful that even if she was dead, as long as the desire was there, that feeling would never go away.
Of course, psychic abilities can resist desires by blocking out emotions and keeping the brain in absolute sanity, but Zhang Cheng doesn't want to do that, because he's been to the City of Mind Flayers and knows how morbid and boring creatures can be that have been under absolute sanity for a long time.
"Hah! Maybe your efforts are not enough! we should learn a few more times now!" Elizabeth jerked over and pressed her boyfriend under her, her tone full of provocation.
"Don't make a fuss, get up and change your clothes, we're going to the North American auction today. Zhang Cheng smiled and patted the other party's fleshy buttocks.
"Today?" Elizabeth was slightly stunned. "Didn't you say it wouldn't be held until after Christmas?"
"Yes, it doesn't start until after Christmas, but that's an important sale. Starting today, there will be some interesting gadgets auctioned one after another, and I plan to check them out. Anyway, it's not fun to stay at home, so it's better to join in the fun. Zhang Cheng explained while admiring the girl's beautiful body curves.
"Okay, I'm going to rummage through the closet and find a nice evening dress. ”
With that, Elizabeth jumped up and ran to her room on the second floor.
Since inheriting Catherine's inheritance of tens of millions, she is barely a little rich woman, and like most women, she has bought a lot of messy clothes and shoes and socks.
With the exception of a small part that was used for fun in bed, most of the rest were worn only once or twice and then put on the shelf.
As a fairly experienced man, Zhang Cheng is undoubtedly very aware of the terrible speed at which women, especially beautiful women, change clothes and makeup, and he did not hurry to finish the breakfast prepared by the invisible servant, and then changed into a suit and sat in the living room and waited patiently.
As expected, he waited an hour and a half for Elizabeth to come down the staircase in a stunning purple dress.
"Honey, what do you think of me?"
"Amazing! I swear, you'll be the prettiest woman in the entire auction. Zhang Cheng complimented him unhesitantly.
He knew that if he had the slightest hesitation, the other party would immediately notice it and go back upstairs to change his clothes for another hour.
"Flim Flam!" Elizabeth glanced at her boyfriend with a swaggering arm, and disappeared at the end of the highway in a black stretched Lincoln.
In order to prevent ordinary people from getting on the cruise, the Supreme Council has specially equipped everyone who is eligible to participate with a car and driver, as long as they make a phone call in advance.
Passing through the streets of New York, completely covered in snow, the car slowly drove directly into the huge cabin of the cruise ship.
Lauren, the Shadow King, who had been waiting for a long time, immediately took two steps forward, touched his chest with one hand and bowed slightly: "Welcome, honorable Mr. Councillor, and this beautiful young lady. ”
"Thank you!" Elizabeth had never seen such a battle, and was visibly a little flustered.
"Relax, don't be so nervous. Zhang Cheng gently patted the girl on the back, and then smiled and said to Lavern's most trusted subordinate: "Take us to the auction site, I want to see if there is anything I am interested in." ”
"Of course, please follow me. Lauren didn't say a word, and immediately walked ahead to lead the way.
You must know that this is not an ordinary ship, but a luxury cruise ship with a length of more than 300 meters and a height of more than 60 meters, and there are nearly 1,500 staff members alone. If you don't know the way, I'm afraid you won't be able to find the auction site for a few hours.
After about three or five minutes, he took the two of them to a place that looked like a conference room, with a high podium in front of them, densely packed with comfortable seats underneath, and at a glance there were already many people sitting on the chairs and whispering to each other.
Clearly, they are waiting for the first auction to start today.
Glancing at the empty space in the front row where the Lavern mark was placed, Lauren said directly to Zhang Cheng: "Sir, please be the master's place." If it is too far back, some of the items sold will be difficult to see clearly. ”
"No problem! Thank you to Congressman Laven for me. ”
After saying this, Zhang Cheng unceremoniously took Elizabeth's hand and sat in the VIP seat at the front of the audience.
When many people saw this scene, a burst of discussion broke out, as if they were speculating about the origin of this young man and woman, who could actually let the King of Shadows receive him in person and sit in the exclusive seat belonging to Lavern, a member of the Supreme Council of North America.
But before they could discuss anything, an old man with gray hair and beard slowly walked up to the podium, raised a small mallet and struck the table hard, and then announced loudly: "The auction at the end of 2003 is now officially opened." Remember, no matter who you are or where you come from, you must abide by the rules here, and if anyone dares to cause trouble or maliciously raise the price, then they are provoking the majesty of the Supreme Council and will be severely punished......"
