Chapter 988: Part 2: Test
From MC's Perspective:
Test area,
"Descendant of the Purple Chamber of Commerce," My heart set off storms. The women I had met casually on the road turned out to be a big heir.
Fortunately, there is no hatred between us. But I found that something was wrong with the gaze of the Butler behind her.
Cory gave Vincent a quick glance. But the other party's expression was hidden behind the mask.
"Where is the staff?"
"Give me the name list?" She asked.
The next second, the staff appeared in front of her and gave the name list. Then he returned to his position.
Cory looks at the name list. Her gaze fell on the last name.
"Ethan Brown," She said in her heart. The information has also said that person appeared 2 days ago. Which is also a coincidence with her return.
So the information was not false. "What that person said before was true," She said in her heart. Her first impression of him was good.
The other hand, Butler's eyes reddened with anger. He feels that a newly appeared person would ruin his plan.
"Let's start the test. Instead of identifying the items on the table. I will show you other stuff. If anyone can recognize more items."
"They will pass the test of mine," She said.
Hearing that the faces of these old men change drastically. Some of them bribed earlier to get information. Including the names of the items on the table.
"Miss, it's no good. People have worked hard to collect the unknown items. It's not nice to exclude these items for the test," The Butler said.
But Cory frowned. She found something wrong. She can guess one or two by looking at the expressions of these old men. She knows the branch office here is rotten.
Their way of doing things was disliked by her. Now She wants to do something. But the Butler is hindering her.
"Do you want me to tell my father?" She asked.
Hearing that Butler's expression turned pale with fright. He realized that he has over stepped right now.
He then stepped forward and apologized.
'Harumph, let's start the test," She said with a snort before taking out the items.
She placed these items on the table for her. Unlike the other items, these items appear to be old and worn out. Everyone can see that it has dug out of somewhere.
"Wizard with more identification can pass the test," She said.
"More number of identification. I couldn't even recognize one item," One of the old men said.
Some of them are angrily looking at the butler. The Butler was the one who swallowed the bribe money.
"Come here and take a look at these one by one. And don't waste my time. If you don't know you should leave right away," Cory said in a cold tone.
A coercion of a level-7 Wizard spread across the testing area. The old men hit by the coercion bent their knees.
Meanwhile,
I was shocked by the ongoing developments. When the coercion hits me. I kneeled down so as not to arouse suspicion.
Cory Anderson saw this behavior. But this made her more curious.
The next second, the coercion was gone.
These old men stood up one by one before going to the table to identify the items on the table.
A short old man was the first one to step up. His eyes scanned the old items. But his eyes weren't able to recognize even one of them.
He didn't dare to anger her more.
"Miss, I don't know. I can only leave it to others," After saying that the old man has left.
Then others went ahead and tried one by one. But the results were the same. Everyone left without the result. The Butler sighed in relief.
He thinks that young Miss will realize her mistake soon.
When it was my turn. I walked forward.
"We will meet again," Cory said with a smile.
"Yes," I gave her a short answer before my eyes fell on these items.
The other hand, Butler was annoyed.
"You will be punished, if you are found deceiving," The Butler said.
The next second, Cory gave him a side look to shut him up.
"Don't worry, I don't have any death wish. I really want to make a living here," I said without looking at them.
But my eyes were on the status panel.
[1. Ancient wreckage: Broken Shard of unknown weapon]
[2. Ancient wreckage: Part of Soul Bell, A Peak Grade Magic Artifact]
[3. Ancient wreckage: Finger Metal Bone of Ancient Body Wizard.]
Then I started to go through all the information.
The other hand, Cory's expression was filled with shock. She can tell that Ethan has recognized some of them.
"Who is he?" She said in her heart. Unknowingly, her curiosity got deeper. Even the old people over hundred years old failed to recognize the ancient battlefield wreckage.
But this foreigner is giving her a surprise.
Butler was shocked. Then he recalled the young miss' words. "Not all the foreigners are the same," He said in his heart.
A hint of vigilance flashes in his eyes.
A few minutes later,
I have decided to tell you. But the source of these items have shocked me. They must have gotten these items from the ancient place.
"What happened?" Cory asked.
Hearing that I recovered my thoughts before looking at her.
"I'm sure of only one item," After saying that I picked up a white palm size half ball.
"I have seen a similar picture in an old scroll before. It's called Soul Bell, An Ancient Peak Grade Magic Artifact," I added.
"What?"
"Peak Grade Magic Artifact are you sure? Cory exclaimed in a surprise and shock.
"Foreigner, don't deceive? How can you tell it's part of Magic Artifact," The Butler asked. He was dumbfounded as well. Even back in their main family no one could tell.
How can an unknown foreigner discover it?
"It's up to you whether to believe or not. I came here because of the Artifact Identifier job. If you guys don't believe me, then I will leave," I replied.
