On this unusual afternoon, the normally noisy Singar seemed somewhat quiet.

There are more than half fewer businessmen on the streets, and even the big tobacco houses that have always closed their stalls have disappeared, and the addicts who have collapsed on the side of the street cannot even find a source of goods.

Gone are the unscrupulous elements that used to be everywhere, and the chaotic city of Singal has become a safe feng shui treasure overnight.

This is mainly due to the fact that almost all the major forces in the city work together to maintain the 'stability' of the city on this day.

Tahir sent his army to patrol the city, the Knights of Dusk were patrolling the streets, and Ramon's men in black were guarding the streets.

These guys of different forces and different faiths became quite harmonious this afternoon.

Because Ramon's auction is taking place at the moment in the huge hotel in the heart of Singar.

This time, the auction hall is located on the second basement floor, and it is a semi-circular hall with two passages in the middle, and the bidding seats are fan-shaped to semi-enclose the stage, and the seats are divided into two floors.

The inner floor is closer to the stage, but it is all ordinary seating, which is considered an inner hall.

The outer floors are actually private rooms, which are slightly higher than the seats in the hall.

The private room has a curtain with a number, so you can't see the people inside, only the people in the private room can lift the curtain and peek into the venue.

Ramon's auction is clearly focused on customer privacy.

Ramon's men, all dressed in black, stood in a circle outside the box, separating the hall from the room. They were supposed to be waiters for the customers in the box - Ramon didn't allow anyone to bring an entourage, so he naturally had to provide an entourage for his guests.

These private rooms are naturally provided for some special people who are inconvenient to show up, and the entourage provided by Ramon is not only responsible for serving tea and water, but also responsible for helping customers in the box to raise signs and bid for auctions.

In fact, the auction wasn't just about choosing a husband for Luha, Ramon also got some extra lots to heat up.

For example, some extremely finely crafted equipment, as well as some rare antiques and works of art.

It's all a companion to the engagement – ornate ceremonial armor and beautiful artwork are not only a sign of financial prowess, but also a sign of the bidder's sincerity in choosing a son-in-law.

“…… Deal! Congratulations to the guests of Box 6 for winning this set of Noldor sigil artwork for 96,000 dinars, a genuine item with a magic sigil, and I must say you earned it! ”

Ramon knocked down the gavel in his hand on the stage, and the volume gradually increased: "Next...... Gentlemen! The final item of the auction is coming soon – it's what you've been waiting for...... The reign of Ashkoman, and the marriage of Luha, the beloved daughter of His Holiness Caliph Bahaman!! ”

A girl in a golden ceremonial dress brought a silver platter containing a dagger and a brass seal.

The girl walked around the stage with a plate and placed it on the beveled stand in front of Ramon.

Faintly visible, the blade of the dagger had a scorpion carved into it.

The breathing of those in the audience was noticeably heavier, especially those of Singar and Desha.

"Maybe a lot of friends have already seen it...... These two items ......"

Ramon stretched out his finger and pointed at the seal: "This is the seal of Lord Eichkoman, the authority of the ruler of Eichkoman!" ”

After speaking, he pointed to the quaint dagger: "And this dagger is as important as the seal!" It represents the identity of the Scorpio Assassin Brotherhood! Other words...... Successful bidders will be considered the rightful rulers of Eichkoman by the Scorpio Brotherhood of Assassins - I think you all know what that means......"

There was a 'buzzing' sound from the people in the audience, apparently all of them talking to each other.

Most people knew that the last item in this auction was Ashkoman's dominion, but few could have imagined that the auction would be accompanied by the Scorpio Assassin Brotherhood's approval!

The Scorpio Assassin Brotherhood, as you know by the name, is a killer organization.

Dexia is a country that pays attention to revenge, and almost all Dexia people are willing to turn their grudges into knives and blood - try not to force them blindly if they can, after all, most of the Dexia people are not very good at verbal battles.

If insults or grudges are involved, they are generally dealt with through private fights, and both parties can appoint any agent as their representative to solve the problem with a knife, and there is no resentment in life or death.

Therefore, sometimes the quarrel between two bear children often turns into a fight between the parents of both sides......

In fact, even more regrettable situations happen from time to time - two children have a conflict, and then both families find a knife in the family to 'wash away the shame', if one party suffers losses and is more irritable, then the situation may escalate again into endless revenge, and eventually become a life-and-death battle between the two families.

The story of retribution is not a story at all in Dexia - every family has experienced it, or is happening.

But don't think that these Descha people will engage in any chivalrous duels, they have never advocated fair duels, they only advocate revenge.

Most of the time, the private fights of the Dexia people will be in the form of ambushes and raids......

For the Dexia people, no matter how the enemy died, anyway, as long as the blood shed by the enemy was enough to cleanse their 'honor'.

But this hands-on approach to revenge isn't the only option.

Sometimes rival families are too powerful to defeat, or they are protected by a great noble, and for whatever reason, those who are wealthy enough or desperate for revenge usually turn to the Scorpio Assassin Brotherhood to help them solve their problems.

These Scorpion-marked Assassins are unparalleled in their assassination prowes, and once they are targeted, they will be confronted with an endless barrage of daggers, throwing knives, and poisons, and they will not stop until they have completed their objectives, and will do their job as long as they accept the mission.

Occasionally, there are some that they can't kill, but they still keep sending assassins year after year, and they never give up - that's the most terrible thing about them.

Most members of the Scorpio Assassin Brotherhood were orphans, and of course a small number gave up all allegiance to their former family in favor of swearing allegiance to the Brotherhood - mostly those who had previously hired Scorpio members for revenge at their own expense.

And once you join, you can never leave again, otherwise...... Any Killer Order deals with betrayers in the same way, and the only difference between the Scorpio Assassin Brotherhood is that they never miss, or rather endlessly.

Such an Assassin group is of course quite terrifying, and the price of their services is quite high, and there are many ways to bid for them.

Children can be given as tribute to the Brotherhood for cultivation, political bargains, large dinars, and one's own life.

At the same time, it was also a very trustworthy Assassin group - as long as they accepted the mission, they would carry it out, even if the target was their Grand Master......

And the most ironic thing is that an assassin group like the Scorpio Assassin Brotherhood, which recognizes money and does not recognize people, is actually a legitimate order of knights recognized by the charter of Valids.

Yes, this killer group is actually a legitimate 'Knights'!

Because the Scorpio Brotherhood of Assassins was originally founded by Duke Dexia Balta Yin Al Akarab in the name of the Knights of the Family Guardian, and was indeed a legitimate order at first, the Scorpio was actually Balta's family coat of arms.

It was in the year 198 of the Pande calendar, when the Pande continent was facing an invasion by General Osa of the Bacchus Empire, and the Duchy of Dexia was divided into two factions because of whether it was independent or not.

During those years, Balta assassinated many opponents with his 'Knights of the Family Guard', and the Duchy of Descha declared independence from the kingdoms of Pande and the Lion kingdoms a few years later.

At that time, the capital of Dexia was Eichkoman.

However, Descha did not pay attention to hereditary inheritance at the time, and after Balta's death, his family split into several parts—several sons split up.

Balta's 'Knights of the Family Guard' became an independent organization, transforming into the Scorpio Assassin Brotherhood, where it took root for a long time in Eichkoman.

Probably because of the Scorpio Assassin's reputation, the Valides Charter did not make it an illegal organization - the nobles naturally cherish their lives more, and no one wants to have a grudge against the Scorpio Assassin Brotherhood, after all, no one wants to be afraid of a killer who may appear in the dark every day.

And the dagger engraved with the Scorpion coat of arms that Ramon is pointing at at this moment represents the recognition of this auction by the Scorpio Assassin Brotherhood.

Whoever gets the dagger can be protected by the Scorpio Assassin - but this is not to ensure the life of the bidder, but to ensure that revenge can be successful......

In other words, if the person who took the dagger was killed by someone else, the Scorpio Assassin would surely avenge him.

At the same time, whoever dares to use force against Eichkoman's idea will face the threat of the Scorpio Assassin.

Although the Scorpions would not take the initiative to meddle in the disputes between kingdoms, after all, their base was in Echkoman, so Leon did not want to provoke them even if he led a large army.

This dagger is obviously the greatest guarantee for this auction.

"Ladies and gentlemen, with the approval of the Scorpio Assassin Brotherhood, you should know that the seal of the Lord of Eichkoman is completely reliable, and I believe that no fool should dare to ......take it after the auction is over."

With a smile on his face, Ramon raised his voice again: "Then, I declare that Eichkoman's reign, Miss Luha's marriage, and the Scorpio Assassin's approval - the reserve price is 800,000 dinars, and a single increase is not less than 50,000 dinars!" Bidding on land, armies, or slaves is permitted...... The auction starts now! ”

"Coax ......"

There was an uproar in the audience, but no one in the hall made bids for the time being.

It's not because the reserve price is too high, but Ramon's last sentence once again surprised everyone.

The price of land, armies, and slaves was permitted......

Ramon himself is the most successful ransom broker on the entire continent, and he is certainly very good at assessing the price of people and land, a rule that balances the financial resources of everyone present - merchants have an advantage in dinars, but lords who own large amounts of land can bid for it even if they don't have much cash.

"Eight hundred thousand!"

A woman's voice came, and it was Alina's voice.

Outside the box, a man in black under Ramon held up a sign with the number '2'.

"No. 2 bid 800,000 ...... 800,000 for the first time! ”

Ramon was on stage to explain the bidder's number to the others.

"Nine hundred thousand!"

"A million!"

"No. 1 bids 1 million ......"

"One hundred and fifty thousand! I want to assess the value of my land......"

A young voice came from Box Six, and a man in black turned and entered the box - they were all professionals under Ramon, who were able to directly evaluate assets such as land.

"One million and one million!"

……

"One million for the first time...... 1,100,000 second ......"

"One million and two million!"

The price is slowly rising, no one impulsively shouts out any unlogical high price, most people only raise the price in the order of 50,000 or 100,000 - this unit is 10,000 after all, and 50,000 dinars is already a huge wealth that most lords can hardly come up with.

"Hah...... How much is Singal worth? ”

In the middle of the bidding, a discordant voice suddenly appeared.

The voice came from Box Five, where Ramon's men held up the sign holding up Number Five, but he did so horizontally — it only identified the speaker's location, not bidding.

"Distinguished guests of Box Five, please bid with your own property...... Your voice is neither Bahad Khan nor His Excellency Tahir, and Singar is afraid that it does not belong to you......"

Ramon said with a smile that there are always various situations in the auction, and sometimes it is just a joke, and he doesn't pay much attention to it.

"I ask again, how much is Singar worth?"

The people in box five were still asking, and the room was quiet at this time.

Obviously, most people are aware that someone is going to cause trouble.

"Singal doesn't sell...... Shut your mouth! If you make this joke again, I'll kill you!" ”

It was a rough voice, from Box Three, the voice of Tahir, the lord of Singar.

"Huh...... I'm not kidding! So, Ramon, I'll pay two million dinars for Singar, no problem, right? ”

The people in Box Five still didn't shut up.

"Then I'm afraid you'll have to ask Lord Tahir for his opinion first...... I don't care, but I have to advise you, Lord Tahir has always had a bad temper......"

Ramon shrugged his shoulders, he knew who the person in box five was, but this person was in a special situation right now, and Ramon didn't think it was easy to deal with.

"Ramon! Shut up! Get the hell out of here! ”

Tahir's temper is indeed not very good, and he also has a problem with Ramon's stirring up.

"I'm sorry, Lord Tahir, I think you should handle this matter, I'm not the Lord of Singar."

Ramon shook his head, and simply waited for Tahir to settle the matter himself......

Anyway, this is provoking Tahir, and Ramon doesn't intend to be a peacemaker.

"Then let your men obey my commands...... I'm going to kill this bastard! ”

Tahir lifted the curtain and emerged from Box Three, heading straight for Box Five.

But as soon as he reached the door of Box Five, an arm stretched out through the curtain and grabbed Tahir.

Then a knife was pressed against Tahir's throat: "Tahir, now can you tell me, how much is Singar worth?" ……”

"Ikram! It's you! …… You'll regret it! ”
