Lin Zhiying returned to the private room and looked at the skill book worth 50 yuan in her hand, sighing that being kept by a rich man was really nice.

I just don't know if Caesar's father needed any godsons.

In any case, he was already nominally Chu Tianjiao's son.

He didn't mind treating everyone equally, and even addressed another member of the main group, Caesar's father, as "Dad."

Some people say that players have no dignity, but Lin Zhiying wants to clarify here that they do have dignity, it's just that it's three meters below ground.

Lin Zhiying looked at the skill book.

He already has the fire element affinity required to cultivate [Flame Slash], the only thing he lacks is to reach the entry level with any basic weapon.

If I remember correctly, the Execution Department offers basic sword techniques for exchange, and Lin Zhiying plans to check there again later.

Anyway, you can also explore Qin Chuan's character route; raising his favorability is much easier than winning over Caesar.

He's been eyeing Qin Chuan's Word of Power: Xuanjia for a long time.

In the private box, Caesar participated in the auction for the second time, this time targeting a necklace.

According to the description on the tablet, it was a favorite item of a queen in medieval Europe, and it's unknown why it ended up here.

Without a doubt, Caesar bought this necklace for Nono.

The current asking price has reached 100 million.

It seems that her position in Caesar's heart is still not comparable to that of Nono, Lin Zhiying thought to herself.

No, why should I compare myself to Nono?

After several rounds of bidding, the pearl necklace finally reached a price of 180 million.

"Number 77, bid 180 million per round."

"Number 77, bid 180 million twice."

……

"Smack."

The gentle tap of the auction gavel signified that the necklace had successfully become Caesar's.

Such valuable items require special care. Authentic items are kept in the back office under the supervision of dedicated personnel, while only samples are displayed at auctions.

Caesar also opted for home delivery, humming a tune as he lay on the sofa, clearly in a very good mood.

At the venue, the auctioneer, who was supposed to continue the auction, was suddenly called off the stage by staff.

The staff whispered something in his ear, and when he went back on stage, his face looked very unpleasant.

He coughed lightly a few times, attracting the attention of the participants in the venue.

Under the spotlight, a few large beads of sweat rolled down his forehead.

He already knew what the audience's reaction would be after he finished speaking, but he had no other choice because of this job.

"I'm sorry, everyone, the necklace that was just auctioned off has been discovered to be stolen by security personnel."

Scattered murmurs had already begun to emanate from the meeting room.

The auctioneer continued, "Therefore, the venue will be temporarily closed. Please cooperate with the investigation. During this period, all tea, pastries, and other refreshments will be provided free of charge."

As soon as these words were spoken, the meeting room, which had already begun to whisper among itself, immediately erupted into chaos.

"What do you mean? Do you suspect we're thieves?"

"Exactly, we're here to give you face, and this is your way of treating guests?"

Inside the private room, Caesar frowned slightly. He hadn't originally cared about these discussions; as a leader, he needed to filter out useless information.

However, it seems that the necklace he photographed has now gone missing?

The manager at the entrance had anticipated this person's possible reaction and had arrived at the door immediately.

They could offend others, but this was someone they absolutely could not afford to offend.

Lin Zhiying also heard the auctioneer's words. He had a bad feeling about it and thought that it couldn't be that Yidaoduanshui and the other two had robbed this thing!

He quickly sent a message, his typing speed barely exceeding five seconds: "The necklace's disappearance has nothing to do with you guys, right?"

"It's related."

So it really was you who did it?

Just as Lin Zhiying was about to say something, she saw his hands move five seconds faster and he continued:

"My salary was deducted. Damn it, this is the first time in my life that an NPC has deducted my salary."

Lin Zhiying smiled knowingly. There would be many more times like this in "Dragon Raja: New World" when players were tricked by NPCs.

However, if it's not the player who's doing it, then things get interesting.

"Mr. Caesar, please let us explain..."

The manager was bowing and scraping as he spoke, feeling immense pressure as he faced the future heir of the Gattuso family.

Caesar didn't let him finish speaking; he stretched out his hand and waved it in front of the manager:

"I just want the goods. I've taken a picture of them. It's fair to pay and receive the goods at the same time."

"Besides, I have no reason to cooperate. The investigation is your own business. I'm leaving, and I'd like to see who dares to stop me!"

"This...this..."

The manager was mumbling something, unable to utter a complete sentence, and his clothes were already soaked with sweat.

In this matter, the auction house is indeed in the wrong. If the goods cannot be delivered, they face a penalty of up to half the auction price, which is 90 yuan.

"Then please, Mr. Cesare Gattuso, would you mind doing me a favor?"

Sometime later, another person appeared at the door.

Neither Caesar nor Lin Zhiying knew when he had gotten there.

He took off his old-fashioned cowboy hat, placed it in front of him, and bowed slightly to Caesar.

His silver hair and wrinkles betrayed his age, and Lin Zhiying immediately sat up straight.

As is well known in the original Dragon Raja novels, the older a person is, the stronger they are.

Not to mention the four Dragon Kings who have lived for tens of thousands of years, the principal of Kassel College, Angers, and Herzog, who successfully ascended to become the White King, are also examples of this.

When Caesar saw who it was, a look of surprise appeared on his face for the first time, and he nodded slightly.

Caesar actually compromised.

"No problem, Sir Henkel, but I hope it can be done quickly, since everyone's time is precious."

Henkel smiled slightly, patted his chest, and his old-fashioned denim jacket jingled. "Yes, I promise. I'm glad my old face actually worked on you. May I come in?"

Caesar shrugged, indicating that it was no problem. "This is your territory, and I have no objection."

Why is Henkel in City A now?

Lin Zhiying looked at Han Gao, the man who could be Angers' opponent, whose ultimate skill was the A-level Word of Power: Holy Judgment.

What shocked him even more was that the faction he represented had only officially appeared in version 2.0 of the game in the previous life.

The Dragonborn Alliance of Continental America (DRACO) is a group of organizations that share a common affiliation with the continental United States.

In its previous life, it was jokingly referred to by players as "DC".

It integrates dozens of mixed-race families of varying sizes in North America and Europe, making it a force of moderate size in the game.

I never expected that this auction house would also be owned by the North American Dragonborn Alliance.

"grateful."

With permission granted, Han Gao entered the private room.

He walked confidently to the wine cabinet, glanced at the red wine, and took out a can of beer from the cabinet.

"How is your father doing lately?"

"You're good at chatting," Lin Zhiying remarked from the side.
