mtended to win at all costs.

On the other hand….

The item simply wasn’t worth that much

Even if they invested millions into further research, the chances of achieving meaningful results were incredibly slim.

Almost impossible.

Still, a handful of people thought differently.

If someone in the second floor VIP suite valued the item this highly….

Then perhaps they were missing something.

Investing in a laboratory was nothing to them.

If they lost the money, so be it.

“One million one hundred thousand.”

A refined man wearing gold-rimmed glasses in the front row calmly raised his paddle.

“One million two hundred thousand.”

A wealthy-looking middle-aged man dressed in flashy designer clothes immediately countered, shooting the first bidder a sideways glance.

Seeing that the second-floor suite hadn’t increased its bid, the room gradually became lively again.

“One million three hundred thousand.”

“One million five hundred thousand.”

“Two million.”

Finally, the man with the gold-rimmed glasses jumped straight to two million, silencing nearly everyone else.

The auctioneer could barely hide his excitement.

“Two million, going once!”

She simply didn’t have that much liquid cash available.

Quietly, she took out her phone, intending to message Stella.

Before she could type a single word, Ares looked at her.

His eyes conveyed one unmistakable message.

‘Just ask. I’ll do it.”

Iris sighed inwardly.

He was determined to make her rely on him.

Normally, she would have refused.

But this item was simply too important.

With it, her laboratory could take another enormous step forward.

“Two million, going twice!”

The auctioneer raised his hammer.

If someone else bought it now, reacquiring it later would be far more troublesome.

Finally, Iris spoke.

“…I need it.”

That was enough.

The icy expression on Ares’s face instantly melted into a smile.

He looked toward the attendant.

“Light the Lantern.”

The words echoed throughout the hall.

A collective gasp erupted from the audience.

No one had expected a tiny bottle that everyone had dismissed to trigger a Lantern Bid, something that hadn’t appeared at this auction house in nearly three years.

The room fell into complete silence.

Everyone was asking themselves the same questions.

Who was in that suite?

What exactly was this item?

How valuable could it possibly be to justify invoking the Lantern?

Ares glanced at Iris and noticed that she had already finished getting ready.

He opened his mouth.

“Come in.”
