Are you kidding me?! The boss of the Hell Dungeon is a loli!

Not long after.

The skeleton auctioneer slammed the white bone hammer in his hand heavily onto the black wooden table in front of him.

Two minotaur guards, clad in heavy black steel armor, strode out from backstage.

They were pushing a huge cart made entirely of bones.

In the center of the cart was a huge object completely covered by a dark red velvet curtain.

The eerie figures who had been whispering amongst themselves in the hall fell silent instantly.

Everyone's eyes were glued to the dark red curtain.

The air was thick with a suffocating sense of oppression.

Ghostly blue flames flickered in the empty eye sockets of the skeleton auctioneer.

He reached out his skeletal hand and grabbed a corner of the curtain.

The sound of fabric rubbing together rang out.

The heavy curtain was completely lifted.

A massive bronze chain cage covered in dark green rust was directly exposed to all the eerie gazes.

The surface of the cage was covered with dense ancient sealing runes.

A wild and destructive black mist overflowed from the gaps in the bronze cage.

The solid wood tables and chairs that were close to the auction stage rotted into ashes the moment they came into contact with the black mist.

The dozen or so A-level weirdos in the front row didn't even have time to react.

They were so overwhelmed by the terrifying abyssal aura that they collapsed onto the carpet, vomiting black blood.

Even from the VIP rooms on the second floor, which had been keeping their doors tightly shut and pretending to be dead, several gasps of shock could be heard.

Jiang Luo lay on the one-way mirror of the No. 3 private room.

Those big, ruby-like eyes were so bright they almost seemed to glow.

She could clearly feel the abyssal energy within her body, which had reached the peak of SS-level, pulsating wildly.

That intense longing for the same source of power made her unable to resist sticking out her pink little tongue and licking her lips.

[Host, please don't miss this.]

[As long as you can devour that primordial abyss within the cage.]

The abyssal essence within you is poised for a qualitative leap.

[Maybe we can directly reach the threshold of SSS rank!]

The system's mechanical voice, carrying a strong seductive quality, rang out in Jiang Luo's mind at just the right moment.

Jiang Luo excitedly turned to look at Naya standing next to the sofa.

She waved her small, white fists and slapped them randomly in the air a couple of times.

"Black Coal Ball, did you hear that? The stuff in this cage is practically a nutritional supplement tailor-made for Lolo!"

"Anyone who dares to stop Lolo from bringing it home today, Lolo will stuff them into a meat grinder and turn them into mincemeat!"

Naya pressed one hand against the black top hat on her head.

A smug smile played on his face, which was painted with white skull tattoos.

"No one can take away what the master wants, but it seems those old guys on the second floor aren't planning to give up easily either."

Naya had just finished speaking.

An extremely shrill old woman's voice came from the leftmost private room on the second floor, the one with the white bone wind chimes hanging from it.

"Such a treasure, containing the very essence of the abyss, would be a waste to leave it in the hands of trash like you. I'll offer 50,000 high-purity soul crystals!"

This price was announced.

The S-rank minor lords in the lobby on the first floor, who had originally wanted to join in the fun, all shut their mouths in despair.

Fifty thousand high-purity crystals are enough to buy an entire medium-sized, eerie city.

Before the eerie beings in the hall could even recover from the shock of the exorbitant price...

The old rascal who had been furious when Jiang Luo snatched his toy earlier let out a nasty sneer in the all-black private room.

"You think you can buy this native Abyssal Bizarre with just 50,000 crystals? You're dreaming."

"I'm offering 100,000 crystals. Anyone who dares to raise the price is just messing with this old man!"

The enraged old man immediately doubled the price.

The entire auction hall fell into a deathly silence.

Upon hearing this number, Jiang Luo puffed out her cheeks in anger.

She kicked over the crystal coffee table in front of her, which was covered with desserts.

"You old codger, half-buried in the ground, dare to steal Lolo's toys!"

"Lolo, give me 150,000 crystals to wrap up this piece of junk!"

Jiang Luo's clear, soft, and sweet voice echoed throughout the entire auction house via the amplification array.

Upon hearing this sound, Bloodstained, who was sitting in the corner of the lobby on the first floor, jumped up from his chair.

His face, covered in blood-red scales, was filled with a venomous expression.

He recognized the voice as that of the brat who had just allowed her men to cut off the security guard's arm at the Chamber of Commerce entrance.

He stepped on the back of the chair in front of him, his foot stained with blood.

He pointed towards the No. 3 private room on the second floor and shouted loudly.

"Who came this brat who dares to act like a big shot here? I'll give you 200,000 crystals!"

"I'm definitely getting this grand finale prop for today!"

Bloodstained relied on being the adopted son of the Blood Lord.

He raised the price to an extremely outrageous level.

The SS-level old monsters on the second floor, who originally wanted to continue bidding, heard the name of the Blood Lord and then...

They all chose to remain silent.

After all, it's not worth offending that notoriously mad lord for a mere abyssal creature that hasn't been fully tamed yet.

Jiang Luo was thoroughly enraged by the provocative act of staining the blood.

She reached into her black cloth bag, ready to raise the price further.

But her fingers groped around at the bottom of the bag for a long time.

Apart from a few leftover candy wrappers.

She didn't even manage to find a single high-purity soul crystal.

Jiang Luo stood there, stunned.

She turned the black cloth bag over and shook it vigorously twice.

It is indeed empty inside.

The little bit of wealth she had accumulated through swindling and cheating in the bizarre world was almost entirely spent when she bought that useless human girl.

Stained with blood, he stood in the lobby on the first floor, looking at the second floor for a long time without any movement.

He laughed even more arrogantly.

"Why aren't you shouting anymore, you little brat?"

"Weren't you putting on airs at the door just now? Now you can't even afford to carry my shoes?"

"If you don't have money, go home and drink your milk, don't embarrass yourself here!"

The extremely offensive and vulgar language, stained with blood, drifted into the private room through the cracks in the window.

Jiang Luo was so angry that she bit her lips so hard that her two little tiger teeth left deep marks.

She turned her head and stared intently at the crow standing in the corner carrying a plate.

The crow felt its hair stand on end under Jiang Luo's gaze, which seemed to want to devour it.

The silver tray she was holding began to sway uncontrollably from side to side.

The black tea in the teacup splashed onto the hem of her black skirt.

Jiang Luo's gaze fell on Han Ya.

"You, as a tour guide, must have a lot of hidden money on you, right?"

The crow shook its head frantically in fright.

She clutched tightly to the space pouch embroidered with gold thread at her waist.

That was the 100,000 soul crystals she had saved up over three years.

"Lord Jiang Luo, please don't joke around. I'm just an unfavored member of the family, on the fringes of society. Where would I get the money to lend you to compete with that madman, Bloodstained, in terms of wealth?"

"That's two hundred thousand high-purity crystals! I couldn't even scrape together that much money if I sold myself!"

The crows seemed to weep, but had no tears.

These 100,000 soul crystals are her life!

Jiang Luo saw through Han Ya's little scheme, and her voice became seductive, like that of a devil.

"Hey, don't be so nervous. Lolo isn't some unreasonable robber."

"If you lend the money to Lolo now, once Lolo returns to Red Moon Castle, you can take any of those S-level weird items in the basement with you."

"You've made a killing trading this little bit of money for a bunch of S-rank items!"
