Starry Sky Railway: No one understands the Amber King better than me.

Lin Yuan walked to the window and looked at the dazzling palace in the distance, its light shining brightly. His gaze became deep and thoughtful.

......

Time often flies when hunters are ready to hunt.

Before we knew it, it was dusk again.

As night began to fall, the pearl on the ground once again burst forth with dazzling brilliance.

Today's Brilliant Palace is quite different from the past. The already dazzling lights are made even more luxurious and dreamlike by the beautiful holographic images.

As assets of Brilliant Group, one of the shareholders of Thousand Star City, this auction is naturally closely related to them.

As a high-profile and prestigious project, the organizers even began preparations six months in advance and invited renowned international artists to design the scene setup.

In the once vast and quiet sky, a fleet of luxurious flying cars of various designs were now converging on this spot, while the ground defenses had been significantly strengthened.

Even in the dense forest on both sides of the main road, two huge mechs are silently guarding this place.

At 7 p.m., a long flying car that looked as if it were made of pure gold slowly flew in from the direction of the core area, its body shimmering with dazzling light.

The flying vehicle slowly landed at the designated parking spot in front of the main gate of the Brilliant Palace, with gusts of air rustling the vegetation on both sides.

A waiter dressed as a servant trotted forward attentively, waiting respectfully for the car door to open.

The hatch slowly opened, and two burly men in suits stepped out and cautiously looked around.

After confirming that it was safe, they whispered a few words to the people inside the car.

Immediately, a pair of long legs stepped out of the carriage first, and a woman with a perfect figure, dressed in an expensive dress, swayed out of the car.

The woman wore a half-mask, her smooth hair draped over her shoulders, and a necklace shone brightly on her snow-white neck.

Although their true faces could not be seen, the perfect curve of their chins made everyone present imagine their beautiful appearance.

"Honorable lady, this way please."

The servants dared not raise their heads, but bowed slightly and led the way.

The distinguished lady in front of him raised her chin and turned around to wait.

A well-proportioned man dressed in a haute couture suit slowly stepped out of the car, his face also covered by a mask.

After the two men stopped, they didn't even glance at the servants beside them, and walked directly towards the main gate under the escort of the two burly men.

The servant's expression remained unchanged, as if he had long been accustomed to it.

He walked back to his seat with a smile, continuing to wait for the next distinguished guest to arrive.

"Welcome, distinguished guest. Please show your invitation."

At the main entrance, a man dressed in formal attire, resembling a butler, stopped the two and bowed slightly.

Upon seeing this, the well-proportioned man took a step forward and pulled out a black card from inside his clothes.

Seeing this, the butler smiled and respectfully accepted the card with both hands.

After scanning it under the machine next to it, a brilliant starlight suddenly burst forth from the card.

Upon seeing this, the butler became even more respectful. He returned the invitation to its rightful owner and then stepped aside.

A beam of light appeared beneath their feet, illuminating a dazzling path on the ground.

The road continued forward until it reached the gates of the Brilliant Palace.

"Dear distinguished guests, I wish you a pleasant stay."

......

Chapter 51 The Auction Begins

After stepping through the spacious gate, the group walked straight ahead along the radiant path.

Compared to the solemn and ceremonial atmosphere outside, the atmosphere inside is obviously much more lively and bustling.

Many handsome men and beautiful women, dressed in their finest attire, lingered back and forth in the manor in front of the magnificent palace.

Those who came here to participate in the event included not only prominent figures from Thousand Star City.

Each invitation represents a recognition of identity and qualification.

Young talents and noble ladies from the inner city, envoys and representatives from various parties stationed in Thousand Star City, heads of powerful companies, and even some celebrities from the interstellar world gathered together.

In the middle of the manor, there is a huge photo wall. Every now and then, men and women of all kinds stand in front of the wall and give the staff taking pictures a charming smile.

At this moment, ribbon-like light projections floated gently in the air above the venue, and sparkling petals drifted down from the ground, shimmering under the lights.

The interplay between the real object and the illusory image makes the entire Brilliant Palace appear even more like a celestial palace.

Upon seeing this, many guests exclaimed in amazement.

"How luxurious! I've never seen such a view in the company."

The light from the sky was reflected in Wu Qi's eyes, who was wearing a mask.

"Hehe, wait until you're promoted to a leadership position before you think about this kind of thing."

The woman beside him covered her mouth and smiled.

"Pshaw, I wouldn't like this kind of place even if you asked me to."

Wu Qi shrugged.

"Alright, you two be careful not to give anything away."

Xiang Yu's voice came through the headset.

"Just now at the main gate, a detector scanned you. But I masked its reaction. Be careful, this place isn't so simple."

At this moment, all those who had not yet entered the venue gathered on the upper floors of the Thousand Star Hotel.

A projection was shown on the wall of the conference room, showing the perspective of the two people participating in the auction.

Before the operation, they were all equipped with real-time transmission devices provided by the technology research and development department, which allowed them to synchronize their view with the rear without delay.

"Scan all these people's faces and see if there are any targets."

Upon hearing Lin Yuan's instructions through the earpiece, the two people in the manor exchanged a glance, and then wandered around the area like the others.

The device continuously captures the faces of the people present and transmits the data to the device behind it.

"This mask is such a hindrance."

Xiang Yu complained bitterly, saying that although the recognition system could still make comparisons in a fuzzy way, it was much less efficient.

Despite the tedious comparison process, everyone remained fully focused.

Before long, a lively commotion suddenly came from the direction of the entrance, attracting the attention of everyone in the manor.

A middle-aged man with a beard strode into the venue, and next to him was a radiant woman.

Both of their clothes had blue stripes that flowed like water, resembling ripples on water and exuding an artistic feel.

"Mr. Zhu."

"Hello, Chairman Zhu."

As the two passed by, the crowd spontaneously applauded in welcome.

This is the president of the Brilliant Chamber of Commerce, one of the directors of the Brilliant Group, and the organizer of this auction.

Chairman Zhu also enjoyed the occasion, politely nodding and waving to the guests.

His arrival also signifies the imminent start of the auction.

The crowd gradually filed into the magnificently decorated gates of the Splendid Palace, heading to the main hall to await the opening ceremony before the event.

"Shall we go too?"

Seeing this, Yingduo spoke softly, but then noticed Wu Qi's gaze fixed on the shadows in the corner not far away.

"how....."

She was about to ask a question when she suddenly fell silent.

Those watching the live stream through their devices also noticed several unusual figures at the corner dining table.

"It's them, Fang!"

A glint flashed in Xiang Yu's eyes, and he shouted out.

"Should we get a closer look?"

Sakura's hushed voice came through the headset.

"No need. Just have Xiang Yu keep an eye on them using the equipment. You two can continue to participate in the auction as normal."

Lin Yuan said calmly, he suddenly had a premonition that the harvest this time might be quite substantial.

Now that the prey has appeared, the hunter should prepare to set off.

"Get the Marines ready."

......

At this moment, on the helipad on the upper floors of the Thousand Star Hotel, the heavily armored flying vehicle has been parked for quite some time.

The carriage was filled with fully armed Marines, their black armor exuding a sinister aura under the lights.

At the same time, red indicator lights lit up on the information-enabled helmets, and the soldiers simultaneously received the instructions and began to check their weapons.

On their epaulets, a golden hammer reflects light.

"They went in."

Only a few core members remained in the meeting room, watching the live stream.

They will consider both the internal and external situations to determine when to launch their operation.

......

Upon entering the Brilliant Palace, a grand hall comes into view.

Beneath the towering dome, artistic paintings and sculptures surround the entire hall, while in the center stands a high platform covered with luxurious carpets.

Amidst the uproar, Chairman Zhu waved his hand and slowly walked onto the platform.
