Chapter 27: Batra, the Rich

September 1, 1999, Youkexin City.

Youkexin City is an international metropolis, not inferior to a big city like Shancheng in all aspects, but its most famous is the [Youkexin Dream Auction].

[Youkexin Dream Auction], held in Youkexin City on September 1 every year, is the world's largest annual auction market.

In just ten days, tens of trillions of funds have flowed through public auctions alone. What you bought for 10,000 rings yesterday may be sold for 100 million today! It's a dream market for a lot of money.

Among the tens of thousands of auctions, many of them are related to crime.

The time is 20:41, Semetali Building, the [underground auction] exclusive to gangsters and gangsters.

The hall on the first floor was bustling, and the gangsters who came to participate in the auction were all dressed in straight suits, basically all of them were figures with heads and faces in the organization, and even some bosses came to the venue in person, which can be described as a 'gathering of elites'.

According to the regulations of the [underground auction], the buyer can only send a maximum of three people, and cannot bring weapons, recording equipment, and communication equipment into the venue, and the gang that holds the auction is responsible for the security of the venue.

Whoever dares to mess around in the [Underground Auction] will become the enemy of the gangs all over the world.

The most basic rule in the venue is "trust", so the security personnel do not use anti-theft video equipment, and the competitors will put aside the discord between the gangs for a while. In the event of any dispute, testimony from all sides will be admitted, which is more important than taking an oath in court.

Therefore, the impression given to others at the venue is very important, and the bigwigs of various gangs and organizations will let the most trustworthy people participate in this gangster event.

In an auction, the party who wins the treasure at a high price must pay 5% of the auction price to the organizer. In addition to showing his financial resources, he can also let underworld figures all over the world know him, and he can raise his worth. Every year, someone will spare no expense to win the bid, but in the end they are forced to go bankrupt.

Preparations for the auction are in full swing, and a few blocks across the street from the Croze Building, in the exclusive presidential suite of Roda KindΓ΄me on the 27th floor, Heather in a delicate handmade suit and Roda Kindorm in a dress around the 'Three-Eyed Scarf' are waiting for someone.

Ascend, ascend, ascend.

"Sir, Mr. Batra has arrived."

"Invite him in."

Garr, the butler, pushed open the door and bowed slightly to the side to invite the people behind him in.

This is an old man who can clearly see his age, the flesh on his face is a little loose and sagging, but his hair is still quite thick, and his eyes are very bright. This person is the world's richest man, Batra.

"Batra, long time no see." Rodakin Dom took the lead and shook Batra's hand gently.

Obviously, I heard Roda Kindom say that he had only had a one-sided relationship with Batra, but at this time, Batra had a cheerful expression on his face when he saw his best friend: "Roda Kindom, I really haven't seen you for a long time, you won't blame me for not attending your birthday party, right?" Blame me, people's memory has deteriorated as they get older, or you look younger. Who is this? ”

As if he had just noticed Heather, Batra extended his right hand to Heather very gracefully: "When we meet for the first time, I am Batra Stovikin, just call me Batra." ”

"Heather, I'm glad to see you." Heather shook Batra's hand and shook it, "Let's not beat around the bush, Mr. Batra, I believe you are here because you trust me and Mr. Rodakindom, right?" ”

β€œβ€¦β€¦ Mr. Heather, it's not that I'm suspicious. ”

After the three of them took their seats, Batra leaned forward slightly, and his tone was a little urgent:

"I still can't believe that anyone can reproduce the extraordinary power of those mythical weapons in ancient mythology, it's too ...... It's incredible. ”

"[Thought] is originally a magical power that turns the impossible into a possibility."

Heather sat on the sofa with her legs crossed, her fingers crossed above her knees, and her voice was gentle:

"You're not completely ignorant of the world of mind-minders, are you? Some of the [gods] in ancient mythology are actually people who have mastered the powerful ability of super strong telekinesis. Nowadays, science and technology are changing with each passing day, and there is no reason for the ability to read without advancing and retreating, right? ”

"Heather has more power than you can imagine, Batra."

Roda Kindorm, who was sitting on the side, struck while the iron was hot: "We need to know why you need the power to heal all injuries, so that we can prescribe the right medicine." ”

Batra was stunned, and just sat down on the couch and fell into deep thought.

Heather and Roda Kindom looked at each other, but did not rush.

Rodakin Dom had been in contact with Batra on and off for almost four months, and the old man was extremely suspicious and completely distrustful of Rodakin Dom and Heather.

But the information brought out by the giant hyena mercenaries who escaped ascension began to spread slowly, and even Batra heard rumors about Heather two weeks ago.

single-handedly wiped out the A+-level mercenary organization [Juba Hyena] with more than 300 people, and in less than ten minutes, eight telekinesis masters, including the regiment commander Barbatol, all died at his hands.

When he first heard this rumor, Batra's attitude was completely scoffing, and he even thought that it was a rumor that Heather and Rodakin Dom had made up themselves to try to fool themselves.

You might as well make it up a little more exaggerated, wouldn't it be better to destroy V5 alone?

But gradually, more and more relevant rumors continued to come out, and relevant details were constantly confirmed, and Batra couldn't sit still a little and began to use his connections to investigate.

This check will find out something.

The footage of Heather's battle in the Sky Arena was worth a lot of money on the black market, and Batra hired a one-star bounty hunter to review the tape, and came to the conclusion that as long as she didn't die young, Heather was definitely qualified to step into the ranks of the world's top telepaths.

When he took the initiative to talk to Roda Jindom on the phone again, Batra's attitude became very polite.

Then, the two parties agreed to meet in Youkexin City on September 1, the first day of the Youkexin Dream Auction.

For a moment, the room fell silent.

Batras thought about it, he was here, and he had brought something, so what else could not be said? If what Heather and Roda Kindom said is true, then everything must be explained to Heather at the time of treatment, and it is better to say it now.

"I am in order to treat a person, so I am constantly searching for famous doctors and secret medicines."

Batra took out a crudely handmade picture frame from his bosom, and his old folded hand gently caressed the photograph set in the middle.

Heather and Roda Kindorm squeezed over curiously and found a picture of a young woman.

"It doesn't look like your daughter or granddaughter, it's a lover, right?" Rhoda Kindom confirmed that his speculation was correct, and winked at Heather.

"She was my sweetheart, and I met her on a solo trip in 1986 and fell in love."

Batra gently touched the bright smile on the photograph with a gentle movement as if she was afraid of waking the girl: "Later, after I confessed my identity to her, she was angry for a while, and then she forgave me, and was willing to continue her relationship, but she simply returned all the expensive gifts given to her, leaving only this rough picture frame that I had made with my own hands as a treasure." I understand that she doesn't want people to think that she's with me for the legacy. ”

"We don't want anything but to have each other. So we vowed to dispose of all our possessions and keep them for the rest of our lives. But it didn't take long for her to encounter an accident...... A car accident...... She fell into a coma, as if she were asleep...... All the famous doctors who came in told me that maintaining the status quo was a medical miracle and that no one knew when she would wake up. ”

"At that time, I heard about the game Greedy Island (GI), and it was said that if you clear the game, you can get a spell to cure all diseases and pains and a elixir for rejuvenation, so I immediately collected information through various channels and deliberately blocked the information of the clearance reward from the outside world, and at the same time, I also began to collect a large number of telekinesis and rely on relationships to find those who have rare and rare healing abilities."

"It's been eleven years, and I've watched her just like that...... Sleeping...... I really tried everything, but it just didn't work. ”

Unconsciously, Batra was already in tears, and the hands held in front of him were constantly trembling: "Please, please tell me, please tell me that you can cure her, as long as you can save her back, my property and everything I have can be presented with both hands......"

The white but powerful hand landed on Batra's trembling shoulder, and Batra looked up to see Heather's confident smile:

"Don't worry, as long as the [Light Egg] is restarted, as long as she still has a breath at that time, I can cure her."
