Everything will be my way!-Chapter 434
Chapter 434
Edward walked to the end of the corridor and, following his intuition, turned into the women’s toilet.
The master’s act embarrassed the guards, but sensing a woman inside the restroom, they understood everything and stood at the door to wait for the young man to finish his plan.
As soon as Edward got inside, his gaze, like magnetized, stuck to the beautiful face of the girl. Her clear, dark red eyes resembled exquisite royal rubies, and the iris seemed to rotate slowly, like a hellish whirlwind capable of absorbing worlds and souls. It was not possible to take his eyes off of her.
The girl went into the stall, and the guy followed her in fascination. When he went inside, his body seemed to be placed in hellish heat. He couldn’t even breathe. There was a ringing in his ears, stars exploded in his eyes, and then darkness fell… He passed out.
Leila, with an impenetrable expression on her face, as if nothing special had just happened, took out the nephrite, from which Edward’s loud voice rang out: ?Security, run here!?
As soon as the men burst into the room at the call of the master, someone behind them slammed the door behind them and released such monstrous pressure that the bodies of those who entered were numb with horror…
Taking advantage of the moment, Eve attacked the guard and strangled him with her elbow. But she restrained herself in order not to kill him accidentally. The second one was attacked by her sister who came out of the stall. Thus, they neutralized the bodyguards of a lustful master unknown to them.
A pot-bellied man entered the restroom with a trolley full of linen.
?Good job, bunnies! Dad is proud of you!? – Kyon praised the girls, examining the victims lying on the floor.
Eve disgustedly shook off the sleeve of the dress, which had recently touched the man’s neck.
Leila, making an indignant grimace, asked: ?Are you proud that we have become accomplices in the crime? Dad, it turns out that you are a villain! You realize that you just kidnapped an innocent boy with our hands, don’t you? What do you feel??
?Before asking about this, look at yourself: you just masterfully lured an impressionable young man into a trap and neutralized him along with the guard, but at the same time you are cool as a cucumber.?
?I’ve taken after you, Daddy! After you, dear!? – the pixie sarcastically parried.
?So, let’s talk about this at a more appropriate time, and now load the kid into his ?carriage?. And don’t let anything stick out!? – Kyon warned sternly.
Leila rolled her eyes and dragged the guy by the scruff of the neck to the trolley…
Lovr scanned the vocal cords of each bodyguard with Synergy, in order to be able to fake the voice in case of anything, then took the sound transmitters. After that, he sat them in the stalls in poses of prolonged reflection on a white throne and fed them paralyzing pills. He also gave one to Edward, to avoid his sudden awakening, and also took the sound transmitter, after which he drove him to the back entrance. The security guard there knows that Zosimos is an important guest, so he will allow him to pass. And if he suddenly feels the body in the trolley and starts to be indignant, then the girls will instantly gag his mouth with pressure.
Meanwhile, in the main hall, a sumptuously dressed auctioneer came on stage to greet the guests. And it seems that the introductory speech will take a long time, because it is necessary to properly greet each head of the clan.
When the introductory part was over, two assistants to the auctioneer, very pretty girls, took out a box with cells from the ring and put it on the presentation table.
?According to tradition, our first lot is deadly poisons!? – the man announced, waving his hand towards the table.
Usually the auction takes place in 4 stages or sections.
In the first section, they sell prohibited substances: deadly poisons and all kinds of solutions for torture, super-powerful tranquilizers, super-quality drugs, various heavy stimulants and aphrodisiacs with serious side effects from infertility and impotence to heart failure and brain death, and much more that only high-ranking alchemists can produce, but there are simply no such alchemists in Rosarrio.
In the second section, formations are offered: mostly stolen heritage of families (by the way, one of the most serious crimes in the empire), one-time specialized formations, like enslaving (similar to harnessing formation, but for people), etc.
During the third stage, slaves are sold. And these are not ordinary slaves that the black market is full of. Here, the slaves are unique: mostly kidnapped high-ranking members of noble families, for whom you can either demand a ransom or satisfy your sexual fantasies. Once, twenty years ago, a young princess was being sold. As it is easy to guess, she never returned to her family.
And at the fourth stage, they sell the most unique goods: from information to artifacts.
?And the lot goes to the gentleman at number sixty-six for two million three hundred thousand!? – the auctioneer announced. He was about to demonstrate the next lot, but a man in a golden mask came on stage. Considering that the guards are clearly in no hurry to intervene, it is easy to guess that this is the very important guest with his goods, about whom his superiors warned him. If that’s the case, then I shouldn’t interfere either.
About 300 crime bosses gazed at the masked man with interest.
?Dear sirs?, – Kyon began earnestly. – ?Today’s underground auction is unique! Because your souls will ascend to heaven… from shock. I am a “Weapon Master”, and I came here not to give long and pretentious speeches, but to sell you the next generation weapon!?
?The next generation weapon?? … ?Not attacking formations?? … ?How interesting!? … ?I love weapons.? – many guests of the hall whispered and nodded with interest.
The heads of clans, in particular the heads of the Black Star and Ravenfeather, assumed a predatory air. This is the main reason why they came to the auction at such a dangerous time.
Isaac took out the sound transmitter and called his grandson, but he did not answer. Frowning slightly, he dialed the frequency of one of the asshole’s personal bodyguards.
?Yes, sir?? – a familiar male voice sounded on the device. The speaker is replaced by a parrot with upgraded vocal cords. The one who sang poems to princess Kara.
?Where the hell is my motherfucker hanging around?!? – the old man hissed.
?Sir, he’s in the toilet with some girl… Listen to it yourself.? – muffled girlish moans and distinct exclamations of the grandson were heard in the sound transmitter: “Yes! Bitch, yes! So good!”.
?For fuck’s sake…? – Isaac swore and dropped the connection. – {He disappoints me more and more… I’ll have to beat the shit out of him.} – the old man decided for the future.
Meanwhile, the man in the golden mask parted the curtain at the edge of the wall, showing everyone a silver-shining metal wall, clearly prepared in advance, and took out a stand with weapons from the ring: oblong contraptions of dark metal. In the middle of each was a spherical bulge, and closer to the handle was a small hook, such as crossbows had.
?It looks harmless, doesn’t it?? – Kyon chuckled knowingly. – ?The first opinion is wrong! So, I need three volunteers from the audience. If you wish, please raise your hands!?
Almost half of the auction participants raised their hands up. Interest in the lot reached such a high level that even some people from the balconies signaled their participation. Diego also raised his hand, and Isaac did the same.
?Gentlemen, number three, two and one, please come down to me!?
The heads of clans of the first three were on the stage in one jump.
The noise in the hall instantly subsided. No one dared to make a sound in the presence of the three persons who headed almost the entire shadow world of Dantes.
?In front of you is a two-meter-thick steel wall. In order to make sure that it is not stuffed with cotton, I suggest you check it yourself. Just don’t damage it too much! We will test the next generation weapon on it.?
After listening to the masked man, the three clan heads approached the wall. A thin old man with sparse gray hair folded his fingers in a pinch and with a sharp movement thrust his hand into the steel wall. Definitely, the wall is real. There is no catch.
?Now, please, take any weapon from the stand, carefully aim the barrel at the wall and pull the trigger.? – Lovr turned to the audience. – ?Be ready to hear the deafening rumble!?
The guests of the auction whispered with interest, anticipating something interesting.
Diego took the impulse rifle, turned it over in his hands, studied it, pointed it at the wall and…
~WHOOSH~ ~BANG~
A huge funnel with a depth of one and a half meters was formed in the center of the wall. It seemed that a meteorite had fallen there, so huge was the trace from the hit.
Despite the warning, half of the audience jumped from their seats in fright. The others’ jaws dropped in shock: ?Oh, great basement rats, did you see this too?!? … ?Wow! What power and speed!? … ?Somebody pinch me!?
And although about a third of those present were royal phasers, when they saw a small ball fly out of the weapon at incredible speed, they were very surprised.
Diego’s eyebrows almost flew up on his forehead. He did not feel any recoil or energy fluctuations, which means that this is not a formation, and even a commoner will be able to use the weapon! How is it possible to deliver such power from such a strange weapon and without recoil? Where is the bowstring?!
Then Isaac fired several times in a row.
?Wow! What about reloading?!? – a man shouted from the audience, clutching his head.
Kyon immediately explained: ?There is a second delay between shots. Forty cartridges in the cylinder. Even a child can recharge it. There is no recoil. The striking factor is limited to the lord phaser at the beginning stage, but an unexpected attack can take even the lord phaser at the finishing stage by surprise, which will help you win even with an overwhelming difference in forces. Such high power is due to the speed with which the heavy “bolt” is released from the weapon. Even the royal phaser at the beginning stage can miss a head shot! However, he will only get a bruise. With such weapons, even the most pathetic gang will turn into the terror of the capital! Your clan’s income will increase significantly!?
?Is this not a dream?! Aren’t we being deceived?!? … ?They wouldn’t cheat at an underground auction!? … ?I want ten copies! How many copies are available?!? … ?How much does it cost?!? … ?Are the bolts included?!? – such a rush has never happened at an underground auction. The atmosphere in the rows of the spectators was more like a bazaar chaos.
When Diego and Isaac destroyed the steel wall, another one appeared behind it. As the man in the golden mask explained, it has a higher enchantment for strength, and even so, the shots left small recesses.
?Thank you for the demonstration, dear sirs.? – Kyon politely addressed the shooters.
Isaac, Diego, and the clan leader of the 3rd rank reluctantly returned the weapons to the stand and returned to their seats. Grave seriousness and greed were hidden behind the stone expressions of their faces. The “Weapon Master” is right when he says that the clan’s income will increase significantly if all the gangs are equipped with this deadly and easy-to-use weapon. Hundreds of millions can be earned with these rumbling tubes in two or three years.
?This unique weapon was produced in Saturn at secret weapons factories. The fact that I was able to get a small batch of it is a miracle! So, I am ready to provide you with three hundred units, divided into thirty lots for convenience!? – with these words, he laid out thirty spatial rings with numbers from 1 to 30 on the presentation table.
?It is not afraid of moisture and does not need additional care, but I do not advise you to clog the barrel with sand or mud. It wears out in ten thousand shots. Each lot comes with a thousand “bolts”, so you will have enough of them for many years. The price of one lot is five million. One step is five hundred thousand. Let the auction begin!? – Lovr solemnly declared, spreading his hands. He deliberately omitted a lot of important information about the guns, because there is no point in sharing this with his enemies.
The entire hall was plunged into silence. The price was discouraging. For five million, you can buy, for example, a whole circus with animals and trainers, or a good, but small theater for people of high income in the capital. However, this concerns the most important thing in this world – combat potential. If they had to buy reusable attacking formations of the same power, then one lot would take not 5, but 500 million. But no one sells these. Moreover, formations with thousands of charges simply do not exist.
Finally, someone raised the number.
?Number one hundred and one – five million!? – said Kyonn, hiding his devilish grin behind the mask. It’s started. It’s time to rob the villains of Dantes!
