Chapter 455 staggering numbers

Suddenly, an extravagant middle-aged gentleman, wearing a pair of gold-rimmed glasses, stood up and looked extremely confident.

He held up the bidding card in his hand to the platform where the treasure map was located, "One million!"

Luo Feng frowned slightly, secretly worried in his heart.

This middle-aged gentleman has a strong momentum, and obviously does not intend to give up easily.

He knew that the auction would be extremely competitive.

A few more bidders then increased their bids, and the price continued to climb until it reached a staggering number.

Luo Feng's mood was heavy, their funds were limited, they couldn't increase the price at will, and once they paid too much attention, it might cause suspicion.

"Five million!" The middle-aged gentleman raised his bidding card again, his voice firm.

Luo Feng pondered for a moment, they had to make a last-minute move, otherwise it was likely that other bidders would find out about their interest in the treasure map.

At this moment, he noticed a young woman in a black suit, her eyes were very calm, and she seemed to have calculated the whole scene clearly.

"Six million!" Luo Feng finally decided to make a move, but his voice was not high-pitched, but low and firm.

The eyes of the middle-aged gentleman and the young woman immediately fell on Luo Feng, who were obviously curious about the new bidder.

Luo Feng pretended not to care and continued to look at the auction table, but his heart was nervous.

The next auction became extremely fierce, Luo Feng insisted, and continued to raise the price, but the middle-aged gentleman and young woman did not seem to back down.

The scene was deadlocked, and the atmosphere became more and more tense.

"Ten million!" The middle-aged gentleman finally raised the bidding card, his voice with a hint of unmistakable determination.

Luo Feng knew that if they continued like this, they would not be able to win.

He turned his head to look at Zhao Jiang and Liang Zihan, signaling them to get ready.

Zhao Jiang nodded and said softly, "Ready."

Liang Zihan also made an affirmative gesture.

Luo Feng decided to make a last ditch effort, he raised the bidding card, and his voice was firm and powerful, "Fifteen million!"

For a while, the entire auction hall fell silent, and everyone looked at Luo Feng in amazement.

The middle-aged gentleman and the young woman had an expression of disbelief on their faces, as if they did not expect that someone would dare to bid at such a high price.

The auctioneer was also stunned, and after a while he came back to his senses and announced, "Fifteen million, someone has bid fifteen million!"

Luo Feng secretly rejoiced in his heart, this was their last hole card, if this auction failed, they would completely lose that precious treasure map.

But at the same time, he also knew that the current situation was very dangerous, and it was highly likely that the members of the Universal Guardian were aware of their presence.

The young woman finally reacted, and she smiled coldly, "Sixteen million!"

Luo Feng's heart sank to the bottom, they had reached the limit, and it would be risky to raise the price again.

He took a deep breath and looked up at the treasure map, praying for success.

"Sixteen million, someone offered sixteen million!" The auctioneer announced.

Luo Feng's eyes were as firm as iron, and he knew that this moment would decide everything.

He looked at Zhao Jiang and Liang Zihan, and their eyes were also full of expectation and determination.

"Seventeen million!" Luo Feng raised the price for the last time, and his voice resounded like thunder throughout the auction hall.

The young woman frowned, obviously not expecting Luo Feng to be so tenacious.

The middle-aged gentleman was silent for a moment, and finally put down his bidding card and signaled that he would withdraw from the competition.

Luo Feng was overjoyed, but he still couldn't let his guard down, he knew that this was only the first step.

The young woman snorted coldly and put down the bidding card, but her eyes were still locked on Luo Feng, and she seemed to have a strong interest in him.

The auctioneer rang the hammer, "Seventeen million, this treasure map was sold to this gentleman!"

Luo Feng's heart was relieved

tone, but he knew that the next task was the most critical, they had to keep the treasure map safe and leave the auction as soon as possible.

The young woman approached Luo Feng, her gaze still sharp, "Congratulations, this treasure map must have special value for you."

Luo Feng smiled slightly, "Thank you."

Liang Zihan and Zhao Jiang also walked over, and they carefully put away the treasure map, preparing to evacuate quickly.

After the auction, Luo Feng, Zhao Jiang, and Liang Zihan immediately found a quiet corner, and they sat down to discuss their next plans.

Luo Feng had mixed feelings, although they had successfully obtained the first half of the treasure map, this was only the beginning.

He knew that solving the puzzle of this treasure map would be a huge challenge, and that they would have to be vigilant at all times, as there was a chance that more competitors would be tracking their whereabouts.

Zhao Jiang tried to use humor to ease the atmosphere, he smiled and said, "This auction is really thrilling, Luo Feng, you are simply a natural auction master!"

Luo Feng smiled, "Actually, I'm also a little worried, after all, we have limited funds, and we almost failed."

Liang Zihan said seriously, "The most important thing now is to protect the treasure map, so that no one else can find out that we have a complete drawing."
