Chapter 1706
If he could have a late Sovereign Ranker as his protector, he was surely an heir from a major force.
When the two appeared, they suppressed the entire scene.
Everyone’s eyes were on them.
Even the young man who was about to say his name shut up when he saw them.
It was because the two had such strong energy around them.
The Sovereign Rankers, including the two mid-Sovereign Rankers on the scene, were looking at the old man with
shock in their eyes.
They never expected to meet a late Sovereign Ranker here.
A powerhouse like this would not have a low status in any force.
Furthermore, it was evident that the man walking in front of him had an even higher status. judging from their
positions.
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtThe two people who came upstairs were Archimedes, the first-in-line heir of the Lightfoot. family, and his protector,
Bernard.
Archimedes was sent by his family to investigate Cornelius’ death.
Coincidentally, Treasure Trove was holding their auction, so how would he miss a gathering that would involve most
of the powerhouses around here?
Archimedes was just passing by on his way to Treasure Trove, but he heard someone arguing upstairs.
Therefore, his interest was piqued, and he decided to come upstairs to have a look.
He still had time before the auction anyway.
After the two came up, they sat at an empty table.
Archimedes crossed his legs and said casually, “Go on! Weren’t you guys pretty lively just now? Why did you stop
the moment we came in? Just do what you should do. I just came to rest my feet and join in on the fun. Just pretend
I’m not here.”
After a while, no one continued.
Eamon had pressed Louie back to his seat forcefully. At the same time, he warned Louie with his eyes to tell him to
shut up.
Archimedes turned his eyes to the young man who was about to introduce himself.
“Didn’t you say you want to introduce yourself just now? Tell me. I’d like to see if I’ll sh*t myself.”
“My Lord,
you’re hilarious. I’m nothing compared to you. I will only be humiliating myself if I say it,” the young man said
respectfully.
He was also warned by the mid-Sovereign Ranker in secret to not offend the man.
Plus, these two who just showed up were clearly not to be trifled with, and he was not like Louie, a brainless idiot.
“How boring.” Archimedes shook his head.
He wanted to join in on the fun, but unfortunately, the moment he came up, everyone focused on him and
indirectly solved the conflict.
Archimedes glanced at everyone on the 9th floor.
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmThere were quite a lot of Sovereign Rankers here, and there were even two mid-Sovereign Rankers.
Even though Treasure Trove’s position was starting to shake and was slowly falling behind the other four trading
companies after the Palmore family’s ambitions started to show, a sleeping lion was stronger than a barking dog.
Therefore, they still had a pretty strong summoning power.
This auction was Treasure Trove’s first big move after so many years.
Perhaps they were trying to raise everyone’s spirits and win back their disappearing clientele.
To be honest, Archimedes did not hope the Fellowes would give up so easily to hand over Treasure Trove.
If the Palmore family was controlling Treasure Trove, except for Holy Root, who among the three other top five
trading companies would dare to strive to become the best?
This might not be good for Splendor.
The best result was the Fellowes family refusing to surrender and fight to the death with the Pamore family.
However, this was clearly impossible.
Once the Palmore family put their mind to something, the Fellowes family would not be able to resist them.
Eventually, they would have to surrender obediently and give away Treasure Trove that had been passed on from
their ancestors.
If not, what awaited them would be the extermination of their entire family.
