Before Lin Yuan could say anything, the spatial container on Vera's body emitted light, and the next moment, two huge weapon combination boxes floated behind her, from which various firearms were assembled and extended.

Lin Yuan and Xiang Yu, who was standing next to him, were both speechless.

......

"Boss, pick this one, this one... hey, this one's not bad either!"

In a secluded private room, several burly figures gathered in front of the terminal, picking and choosing.

The leader remained silent, wearing a huge mask that could not conceal its sharp, massive fangs.

The gaze beneath the mask was deep and ruthless. A moment later, a hoarse, raspy voice echoed from the room.

"We've chosen to make a deal with this person, but this amount isn't enough; we need to add more money!"

.....

Time passed slowly and unnoticed. Finally, after everyone had been waiting, the host received the notification that the deal had been completed and cleared his throat.

"Ahem, distinguished guests, the seller has just..."

The result was only half-said.

A sound like clothes fluttering in the wind rang out, and then a figure leaped down from the rooftop of the private room.

The person's shadow cast a huge black shadow on the stage under the illumination of the pillars of light from the dome.

The next moment, the newcomer gracefully descended without any trace of human presence.

A man dressed in a white cloak, but with a Western appearance, appeared before the crowd.

He scanned the entire room with his cold, gray eyes, finally focusing his gaze on the girl inside the crystal capsule.

"The Holy Embryo has descended into the world, yet you mortals dare to covet it."

......

Chapter 55 Chaos Descends

The white-clad man descended from the sky and slowly walked into the stage lights, his face clearly appearing in everyone's sight.

Above his cold, sculpted Western face, a pair of gray eyes looked down at the front, as if looking down at everyone.

The man wore a white cloak, on which was embroidered a pattern of a giant tree reaching to the sky.

When this face is paired with this outfit, it immediately gives a sense of disharmony.

"This is?"

In one of the private rooms, some of the older guests recognized the symbol and immediately showed expressions of disbelief and shock.

Most people, however, were still immersed in the regret and disappointment of losing the auction and missing out on the treasure.

They watched as the man in white slowly walked onto the stage, waiting to see how things would unfold.

In the upper-level private rooms

Chairman Zhu suddenly stood up and strode to the edge of the stands to look down.

As the organizer, he knew perfectly well that this person's involvement was absolutely not part of the auction's proceedings.

Although he did not know the origin of the person in front of him, he felt a strong sense of unease.

Have you found out this person's identity?

"No, this person's identity was not matched in the list of invitees."

"Then hurry up and check, apply for the Federation's data center, or..."

Chairman Zhu's expression changed several times.

"It's too late! Where is Mr. Mo?"

"Mr. Mo has already learned about the situation. He just dealt with a group of petty thieves and is now on his way to the stage."

The guard listened for a moment with his earpiece, then quickly replied.

Hearing this answer, Chairman Zhu calmed down a little.

He then calmly gave instructions to his subordinates.

"Issuing a level one alarm and ordering the guards and security team to enter the venue to maintain order, and to evacuate the scene if necessary, gave me a bad feeling."

"President, do you need me to escort you to safety first?"

A loyal subordinate quickly spoke up.

Chairman Zhu lowered his head and pondered for a moment, but finally shook his head.

"If any major problems occur during this event, it will have a significant impact on the reputation of our Brilliant Group."

However, if we can control the situation, I believe our brilliant reputation will be strongly protected. Tell the people at AnDun Group that we must stand together this time.

The subordinate nodded and quickly went to make the arrangements.

Chairman Zhu could no longer sit still. Surrounded by guards, he quickly left the private room and went to the next room to knock on the heavy door.

The most urgent task is to find out the background of the people in the audience.

.......

While some people took action, most of the guests in the theater were still waiting and guessing what was happening in the audience.

Some people watched the strangely dressed man with great interest, as if it were a theatrical performance, thinking it was a special program prepared for them by the auction.

And so, under the spotlight, the man walked slowly toward the crystal capsule ahead, his gaze never leaving the girl inside.

The latter seemed to sense something as well, and slightly raised its somewhat vacant eyes.

"Holy Embryo, just as the intelligence said, we have finally found you."

A hint of excitement suddenly appeared in the man's originally indifferent eyes. He slowly raised the arm that was covered by his cloak, revealing a right arm that looked like a plant.

The host who was closest to the camera was startled upon seeing this.

He watched as the man's strange right hand gradually reached towards the crystal capsule. Despite his fear, he still spoke up:

"This...this esteemed guest, the auction has concluded. If you wish to...?"

The man's hand paused in mid-air, and his gaze suddenly turned to the host.

The latter's voice suddenly stopped, and a chill ran down his spine.

"The items up for auction?"

The man muttered to himself.

"Mortals often witness miracles without realizing it, but what you said earlier about her being a gift from the gods is quite appropriate."

To commend your exceptional eyesight, today... I will bestow upon you a gift.

A cold smile suddenly appeared on the man's lips.

He withdrew his hand from the crystal capsule and then gently nodded to the host beside him.

A green dot of light, like a seed, drifted and flew toward the host's body.

"What, what are you going to do?!"

Upon seeing this, the host instinctively retreated, but the green light followed him relentlessly, eventually taking root and disappearing into his body.

"What, what is this?"

The host dropped the microphone in alarm, frantically groping around on his body, trying to find something amiss.

But the next moment, his body suddenly stiffened, and a surge of energy suddenly spread throughout his body.

The green light instantly flowed into his limbs and bones.

Then everyone witnessed an amazing scene.

The host's skin suddenly became smooth and delicate, and his posture became more upright.

His hair began to grow wildly in a short period of time, and when he tremblingly took off his mask, his face looked much younger, as if he had been rejuvenated.

"me."

The host, feeling the changes in his body, suddenly widened his eyes and looked at his smoother skin with some confusion.

Clenching my fist, I immediately felt that same energetic feeling I had when I was young.

No, it's even stronger.

"Can you feel it? This is the power from Him."

The man in white had a smile on his face, which revealed a hint of compassion.

The host's body trembled violently with excitement, and his usually eloquent speech failed him, leaving his words sounding extremely pale.

He suddenly knelt down and looked up at the figure of the man in white as if gazing upon a miracle.

"Watch from the sidelines, and you will be allowed to witness the Holy Embryo."

The man in the cloak withdrew his gaze, his expression turning cold once more.

He stared at the girl in the crystal capsule, as if trying to convey something.

However, this seemingly harmonious scene was suddenly interrupted by a gunshot. The muzzle flash came from afar and went straight towards the man.

The man in white simply tilted his head slightly, and the bullet passed right past him.

Surprisingly, the bullet struck the kneeling host directly.

The bullet pierced the heart, splattering blood.

Blood gushed out, but a green energy kept trying to repair it.

"Help...help me."

The host felt his life force slipping away, and his body suddenly felt cold.

He reached out his blood-stained hand, trying to reach for the man's white cloak.

"waste!"

The man dodged the other man's hand and raised his hand to grasp the body of the man who had collapsed to the ground.
