Chapter 357 He Too Lost Hair
Not to mention how furious the Beck family was, Hayden, who was also chased out of the auction, was so mad that his face was distorted.
The people from the underground chamber of commerce threw him by the roadside like trash. He only got up from the ground in a sorry state after they left.
As the eldest son of the Grey family, he had never experienced such humiliation. He wanted to call his subordinates over, but the moment he opened his mouth, he realized several of his teeth had been knocked out, and he could not speak properly.
He closed his mouth with an unsightly expression.
Fortunately, the Grey family’s guards noticed him after a while and came over.
Hayden didn’t say a thing, but he took out his phone and typed a line of words on it. [Take action after half an hour.]
With a mere sentence, the Grey family’s guards looked at each other and prepared to take action.
Hayden limped back to the car. He stared in the direction of the auction venue with a cold eye expression. As the living metal was the main auction item today, not many items were for auction this time.
Not long after, the final item was brought onto the auction stage.
It was a piece of pale gold metal the size of a football displayed on a red velvet tray.
That piece of metal looked somewhat plain and simple without much luster.
Knowing it was the living metal, numerous burning gazes instantly fell on it.
With a smiling face, Joshua looked around and said, “Everyone, what’s presented before you is the living metal. I’m sure all of you know the wonders of the living metal.”
After he finished speaking, he picked up a pale golden dagger from the side of the tray and said, “This is a dagger made of living metal. Let’s do an experiment on the spot…”
However, before he proceeded with the experiment, someone in the auction hall shouted, “Mr. Miller, it’s not necessary to do the experiment. Let’s start the auction now. All of us know about the living metal.”
“That’s right. Mr. Miller, we trust the reputation of the underground chamber of commerce. It’s not necessary to do the experiment. Please state the starting price now!”
One after another, everyone began to urge Joshua. However, the smile on Joshua’s face did not fade. He proceeded with his experiment in an unhurried and orderly manner.
It was not until the dagger was cut off and started to regrow into the shape of a complete dagger that he smiled and said, “Everyone, don’t be anxious. Now, let’s test its hardness, density, weight, sharpness, luster…” While the entire audience wailed and urged non-stop, they could not help but be stunned by the perfect recovery capability of the dagger.
The dagger that had regrown looked the same as previously. Not only its appearance but all its qualities. Joshua looked at the crowd smiling and said, “Now, let’s announce the starting price of this living metal. As everyone can see, it’s about the size of a football but only weighs less than 11 pounds.
“That’s right. It’s very light. It weighs about one-third of the weight of iron.
“However, there was no doubt about its hardness and sharpness.
“The starting price of this living metal about the size of a football is…”
Bang!
Before Joshua could announce the starting price, someone kicked open the door of the auction hall, followed by a group of people in black combat suits rushing in.
The moment those people rushed in, they opened fire without saying a thing, not giving anyone a chance to speak.
The entire auction hall was instantly full of screaming and running, falling into a tremendous panic. Standing on the auction stage and staring at those people, the smile on Joshua’s face gradually faded.
He gave the shadow guard a hint with his eyes. Instantly, many men in black rushed out from all directions.
However, before Joshua’s people started fighting with the people who barged in, some men in black whose figures looked like ghosts rushed out of nowhere. With a clear target, they charged toward Draxton and Isabella.
They were the Moore family’s assassins.
Not surprised by this unforeseen event, Isabella and Draxton remained very calm. Hugging Betty tightly in his arms, Draxton exchanged glances with Isabella and leaned toward Joshua.
At this moment, a hand suddenly reached out from the side. It grabbed Betty’s hair and captured the motionless Silver General away from her head.
