Chapter 644

#644. I felt good.

* * *

The manager of the Midas auction house.

Charles Greg was a ducal level player in his 80s who was competent enough to have been dispatched from the headquarters.

In the first place, according to the Midas Guild’s policy of expressing thorough golden rule, those without the ability to earn money could not hold important positions.

So an explosion happens.

When dozens of masked men attacked and the barriers and defense systems protecting the auction house collapsed.

It was thanks to that competence that he was able to react reflexively.

“Emergency contact to headquarters and branch offices, and request support from the police and Infinity Guild.”

“It’s not possible! Communication has already been cut off!”

“If we find out that contact has been lost, we will send support from headquarters. I’ll gather the guards and make the most of the time.”

“The invaders are too strong! The guards alone won’t last more than 10 minutes!”

but this moment.

Charles broke out in a cold sweat.

I did my best according to the manual.

All of that response was due to the movement of the masked people who thoroughly crushed and attacked the auction house.

‘It’s obvious that it’s a planned raid, but no matter how much it is…’

Even if it’s just one of many businesses, this is Midas.

It had a security system strong enough to hold a sit-in for several days against the army.

However, it was not enough to disable the security system like this, and all the attackers were high-level players.

As far as he knows.

There are reasons for doing this.

And there is only one possible one.

‘Is it them too?’

That was why Charles had a grim expression on his face.

If it was as he predicted, no one would be able to survive today.

A sparsely populated suburb.

Especially since it happened during a secret auction where access to the general public was controlled.

“Gather all the staff, including the guards, at the auction house and lower all the bulkheads to seal the auction house.”

That’s why you can’t die innocently.

Burning the last resolution.

Charles said sharply.

“Remember, even at the cost of our lives, we must protect the customers and the auction items!”

* * *

“What the hell is this!”

“Chief! Where is the person in charge?”

“Give me my white porcelain! The white porcelain I bought for 1.5 billion right now!”

after the explosion occurred.

The auction house, which was already in chaos, became even more chaotic as employees flocked from all sides and set up barricades.

The one who is confused because he does not know the situation.

In the midst of this, the one who takes responsibility.

He said he would go, so he asked for the item he had won.

Dozens of guests were rampaging each other, adding to the chaos.

The moment when one of the customers who had been so rampant was about to shake off the hands of the staff and run away because he couldn’t stand the excitement.

A hand caught him.

chin.

“Stop the fuss.”

“Ugh! You know who I am…”

“Of course you are a heavenly guest.”

Even when the auction went off the rails, Bunny Girl held the auction while sighing heavily.

Unlike before, she said with a cold face.

“But a guest is a guest because he paid according to the Midas rule.”

“…!”

“Don’t forget that this is Midas.”

Maybe it’s because he’s tired of the high-level player’s grip.

Or was it because he realized that this place was the Midas auction house?

Eventually, as the man ran away with a groan, the riots of the other guests subsided further.

However, the face of the bunny girl who turned away from those customers was covered with despair and regret.

‘I’m off duty, so I’ll just rest. Why don’t you go to the auction today just because you’re getting paid more…!’

To be honest, she wanted to run away too.

As a high-level player, it is more likely that he will survive if he escapes alone.

But this is Midas.

She was an employee of Midas.

If I had to run away from this spot, it was obvious that I would end up in a situation worse than dying after paying a huge penalty under the contract.

Employees, including Bunny Girl, had no choice but to keep their seats while putting on gloomy expressions.

And…

bang quaang!

After several roars.

The metal wall blocking the entrance to the auction house was broken, and monsters wearing black masks rushed in.

There are about 50 of them in total.

To be honest, if you look at the numbers alone, the number of employees at the auction house was rather large.

But it was the staff who were more nervous.

The majority of them are non-combat intermediate players, and all the masked people are high-level combat players.

Because there was an overwhelming power difference between them.

“I don’t know who you are, but this is Midas. Please leave immediately.”

despite knowing that

Standing upright at the forefront.

Charles glared at them.

Even though he is not a combat type player, he is also a duke level player over level 80.

Fighting countless monsters and breaking through the 80th floor of the dungeon, his momentum was enough to intimidate even high-level players.

But unfortunately.

His threat was shattered as the giant masked man at the forefront rushed forward with a fierce cry.

“Kill!”

It was a moment.

The blue dragon sword with the giant masked man fiercely cut through the air.

The handkerchief Charles threw turned into a bird and flew away.

And when the two collided.

Quaang!

with a loud roar.

The bird on the handkerchief is torn.

The blade of the sword that had been swung as it was, cut Charles’s throat.

Fortunately, Charles, who blocked the attack with a sword and shield made of a handkerchief, hardened his face after several skirmishes.

It wasn’t just because he clearly felt that the giant masked man was stronger than he was through this fleeting exchange.

The masked man’s cry.

And it was because he was finally convinced of one fact through the movements of the blue dragon sword, which was too flashy to be a simple combat skill.

“I can understand why you guys were called the Demonic Cult to carry out such a nasty surprise attack to check the World Federation.”

gritted teeth

Charles glared at the masked man.

The only people in this country who can do this.

As long as they are hostile to the World Federation from the beginning, those who can survive such a bold act.

“—The Black Dragon Clan!”

* * *

“???? (Let’s talk freely).”

Maybe because I already realized that I couldn’t hide my identity anymore.

It’s because I think it doesn’t matter.

passing his words with a snort.

The masked man said coldly.

“????? (Dead people don’t have mouths anyway).”

declaration of life.

The shady atmosphere.

But it gets cut off along the way.

“Foot!”

lightly at first.

And by the burst of laughter that soon erupted.

“Puhahahaha!”

Where is the laughter coming from?

Charles, who looked back in bewilderment, was able to find it thanks to him.

For some reason.

Unlike the other guests who were evacuated to the middle by the staff, the young man in the white mask who still remains in the VIP seat and crawls on his stomach.

“It’s really something to live for a long time.”

[Ahahahaha oh my gosh! Oh my gosh!]

It wasn’t just the young man.

A woman in a butterfly mask with a smile.

Even the black mangbird rolling around.

Because everyone in the VIP seats couldn’t hold back their laughter.

“I really didn’t expect to see a scene like this.”

He said it was worthwhile to fish while checking out suspicious signs hanging around the auction house.

Growing up for a while.

The young man in the white mask slightly turned his head.

Then he asked the black-haired girl wearing a fox mask who was the only one who was not laughing among those who were with him.

“What are you going to do, princess?”

“…Are you giving me a choice?”

“Since things have turned out like this, I think your opinion will be important.”

“Then, can I take care of it from now on?”

“of course.”

laughing bloodily.

Limon added one more word.

“No matter how absurdly the stigma is inflicted on you, it is only meaningful if you take revenge on yourself.”

“Thank you for your consideration.”

Like really thank you.

After bowing my head to him.

Li Qingyu stood up from his seat.

And the moment she slowly turned her head.

The masked people were startled.

“Everyone, to be honest, I was in a very good mood today.”

It’s obviously a smiley face.

“It wasn’t enough that I didn’t see my husband after a long time, so even though we weren’t alone, we were able to go on a date.”

A face devoid of joy.

“But you really ruined my good mood.”

And between the half-faced fox masks.

sinking deep and dull.

looking straight at themselves.

Eyes like obsidian.

“…how will you reward me for this?”

Especially the ones that revealed how to live.

It wasn’t even a threat.

just quietly watching

I just asked calmly.

However, when the other masked people hesitate when they see the slender girl who strangely creeps up their spines.

The giant masked man coldly exclaimed.

“?????(What are you looking at)?”

It seemed that I had come to my senses.

The other masked men surrounding the auction house rushed forward, each holding a weapon.

In order to indiscriminately attack everyone present, including the girl in the fox mask.

Quaang!!!

But right after that.

They had to harden.

The moment you want Li Qingyu to disappear.

It was because the three masked men who rushed at the forefront were thrown out at once with the sound of a leather drum exploding.

Each wrist is cut off.

Limbs are strangely bent.

Spitting blood endlessly like a waterfall.

The sight of a colleague smashed in the blink of an eye was enough to freeze all the masked people.

“You haven’t answered my question yet.”

“You cheeky bitch…!”

in front of them.

holding a black fan.

blocking the front

Seeing the girl in the fox mask smiling, the large masked man hardened his face.

It was because even he, the most skilled among those who raided the auction house, had never seen how or when the girl moved.

I only saw a vague glimpse of the hazy black mist.

Least overpowered player.

Against an unexpected obstructionist who could possibly turn the tide of this situation at once.

What he chose was a threat after all.

“Do you think you can safely interfere with the events of the Black Dragon Clan?”

“Pooh!”

…At the same time, it was a problem that the threat was not transmitted as a threat at all because of the laughter that the young man and the black witch spewed out again.

unlike them.

Li Qingyu replied with a deeper smile.

“Of course, there is no way you can be safe. Our family is very behind.”

“If you know that, even now…?”

If you run away from here right now, I will spare your life.

As he intended to leave witnesses anyway, the giant masked man who was about to shout without much hesitation hardened.

…What did this bitch say?

our clan?

What is our clan?

no it can’t be

This is the Midas Auction House.

There is no way the Black Dragon clan exists in the business of the Midas Guild, one of the seven guilds that oppose the Seven Dragons.

To be precise, it’s closer to saying it shouldn’t exist.

No matter how skilled the Seven Dragons were, there was only one girl among the Black Dragon clan who reached the level of a servant or higher at such a young age.

“In that sense, I would like to ask.”

Even while denying the guess itself.

Looking at the giant masked man who hesitated unconsciously.

Even though he’s not as thorough as the green dragon clan, it’s more than that he doesn’t forget what he suffered instead.

The princess of a clan who could not allow themselves to fall into a conspiracy, even though they might fall for it, asked with a smile on their face.

“What on earth did you believe that you would be safe even after impersonating our clan?”
