At this time, the Aura on Salen's body was becoming dimmer and dimmer, and the Flame Snake coiled around his arm was emitting a despairingly high temperature.
"Damnit, where did the guards go? Hurry up and save me! I'm your Black Iron VIP, you can't do this to me!"
Salen's mournful scream echoed in the auction hall for a long time.
But no one answered him.
Not only were there a few dozen Great Swordsmen guarding the auction hall, but there were also a few Expert Swordsmen, as well as a High Mage like Ritch. There was even an Archmage overseeing the auction. This was a necessary guarantee to maintain order in the auction. The reputation of the Black Horn chamber of commerce wasn't just for show.
But now, these people that should be maintaining order in the auction didn't move. They all calmly stayed in place, as if they didn't see what was happening.
"What are you doing!" Salen could already feel the pain coming from his arm as his Aura was becoming dimmer and dimmer. That frightening temperature almost made him go crazy. "I'm your Black Iron VIP!"
Salen felt more and more despair.
The heat and pain from his arm made Salen feel dizzy. The world before his eyes seemed to turn black and white, and the sound in his ears seemed to be getting further and further away.
"Forget it, Cousin …" At this time, William Merlin's words finally saved Salen. "His grandfather has some friendship with your grandfather …"
"Oh?" Lin Yun frowned.
But in the end, Lin Yun still recalled Syudos.
"Pant, pant, pant …" Salen, who had barely escaped from Syudos' bindings, seemed to collapse as he lay on the ground, gasping for breath.
After a few minutes, Salen finally recovered a bit, but he no longer dared to provoke Lin Yun. He only looked at Lin Yun with a mixture of fear and hatred before quickly retreating ten meters away.
That feeling was like seeing a poisonous snake in the grass, afraid that if he retreated a little slower, he would be bitten by the poisonous snake.
After retreating more than ten meters, Salen finally stopped, but he still didn't dare to look at Lin Yun in the distance. He only had a dark expression as he vented all his anger on Ritch.
"Ricky, what's going on with your Black Horn chamber of commerce? I'm your Black Iron VIP. If something happens to me here, can you bear the responsibility?"
"My apologies, Young Master Salem." Ricky's expression remained the same, and a smile appeared on his face. He was elegant and calm as he said, "The one you just attacked was a gold VIP."
"I don't care about gold …" Before Salen could finish his sentence, he suddenly froze on the spot. He stared at Ritch for a long while before cautiously asking, "What … What did you just say? Gold … Gold VIP?"
"Yes, Young Master Salem. You just attacked a gold VIP." Ricky nodded with a smile. "Thus, you might have some trouble coming up. For example, you and your family might have to give an explanation, or that Gold VIP might have the right to pursue your responsibility. Believe me, this isn't good news for you, because if that happens, the Black Horn chamber of commerce might have no choice but to blacklist you and your family …"
"…" Salen was dumbfounded. He swallowed a mouthful of saliva and said, "Is … is he really a Gold VIP?"
"Yes, a gold VIP."
"It can't be …" After confirming once again, Salen was on the verge of tears. 'This, this … This is too unlucky. I just got into a conflict with someone in the Black Horn chamber of commerce, and I ended up encountering a gold VIP …'
This wasn't a joke …
How could Salen not know how serious it was to attack a gold VIP in the Black Horn chamber of commerce's territory?
This really wasn't a joke …
As long as that gold VIP said a word, the few dozen Great Swordsmen, the few Expert Swordsmen, and even Ritch, as well as the Archmage overseeing this place, would unhesitantly attack him. They could even kill him on the spot!
Moreover, the Black Horn chamber of commerce would have the right to pursue the Charlotte Family's responsibility. At that time, even the Patriarch of the Charlotte Family would have no choice but to stand up and give an explanation.
"I … I really didn't know!" Salen was truly on the verge of tears.
He really didn't know that it was a gold VIP …
'Moreover, shouldn't a gold VIP be in a private room on the top floor? How could he be sitting in the auction hall? Isn't this misleading?'
"Young Master Salen, I am only a small person in charge of the auction, explaining to me is useless …"
"Ritch, Ritch …" Salen was already panicking. He hugged Ritch and pleaded, "You have to help me, I really didn't do it on purpose. If you help me, the Charlotte Family will be grateful to you in the future …"
"I already said, Young Master Salen, I am only a small person in charge of the auction. You just attacked a gold VIP, this already exceeded the scope of my authority …" Ritch helplessly shook his head. "But I can personally give you an idea. You can try to plead with that gold VIP. If he is willing to forgive you, our Black Horn chamber of commerce will naturally not take any action …"
"Plead, plead, alright, I understand. Thank you, Ritch." When Salen heard this, he didn't care whether he was afraid or not. He casually thanked Ritch while squeezing out an unsightly smile, trembling with fear as he walked towards Lin Yun 'seat.
"Cousin Mafa …" At this time, Ross Merlin's mood was also very complicated.
Ross Merlin had originally thought that after the conflict started, he would clean up the mess and save his distant cousin, protecting the reputation of the Merlin Family, while conveniently doing a favor in exchange for Stan Watson's map.
But now …
Ross Merlin suddenly discovered that all his plans had failed. The other side didn't need his help and directly resolved the conflict on his own, and the way he resolved it was something he had never even dreamed of.
That scene had truly scared Ross Merlin.
It was only a ball of fire, but it instantly injured a few seasoned peak Great Swordsmen and even scared a 4th Rank Expert Swordsman like Salen Charlotte.
This kind of frightening power already exceeded the limits of Ross Merlin's imagination.
Ross Merlin asked himself, 'Even if I personally went up to defeat a 4th Rank Expert Swordsman under the protection of a few peak Great Swordsmen, I'm afraid I would have to use the Endless Spring.'
But when it was his distant cousin, he didn't even move an inch. He just released a ball of flames and the whole world became quiet.
What kind of concept was this?
Even if that ball of fire was only a Magic Tool, it was shocking enough. Without enough power, how could he control such a powerful Magic Tool?
At this time, Ross Merlin realized that his distant cousin from Thousand Sails City was far from being as simple as he had imagined.
It was laughable that he had always thought that this person was just an ordinary rich merchant who might have some money, but had not seen much of the world and did not have any strength. As long as he took out some benefits, he would be able to exchange for that map. Now, it seemed that what he had said before was really laughable …
Alchemy techniques, magic knowledge … With his wealth of over two million golds, what kind of knowledge couldn't he get? That was over two million golds, enough to crush an Archmage.
As for the two peak Spiritual Magic Tools that he regarded as his life …
It looked like a joke now.
He had clearly seen that ball of fire, and its power was at least that of a True Spirit Magic Tool. His two peak Spiritual Magic Tools weren't worth mentioning in front of it.
But this wasn't the most important thing.
The most important thing was that Ross Merlin realized a problem through that terrifying ball of fire.
Ross Merlin realized that if he really threatened or even tried to rob the map, how would this distant cousin of his treat him?
That was the power of an Archmage. Even if he was a 5th Rank High Mage and had a powerful Magic Conducting Rune like the Endless Spring, he still wouldn't be a match for a True Spirit Magic Tool. At that time, whether he could escape unscathed would be a problem, not to mention the map left behind by Stan Watson.
As he thought about it, cold sweat trickled down Ross Merlin's back.
He opened his mouth, but didn't know what to say.
"The map?" Lin Yun was the first to speak. "We'll talk about it when we get back …"
"Eh?" Ross Merlin was startled at first, but then a cheerful expression appeared on his face. "Good, good, we'll talk about it when we get back …"
Ross Merlin's mood was like a roller coaster. His heart had already sunk to the bottom, but because of Lin Yun's words, he immediately roused up. That map was too important to Ross Merlin.
"Don't bother me again."
"Yes, of course, of course …" Hearing that there was hope for that map, Ross Merlin naturally didn't say anything.
After dealing with Ross Merlin, Lin Yun's gaze once again fell on the auctioneer. At this time, the auctioneer was introducing the next item, a Darkness Evil Python Skin. Needless to say, this item definitely came from the Mercury Tower, because traces of Darkness Evil Pythons could only be found in the Gold Forest Plane occupied by the Mercury Tower.
