Chapter 158.

Aquamarine Star.

The Granville Sea near the Arctic Circle.

A scientific exploration ship was slowly drifting in the sea.

A few bad-faced experts stood on the deck, looking at the constantly pulsating data on the large equipment placed on top of it and arguing in low voices.

This ship of theirs belonged to the Aquamarine Warm Current Detection Organization, which was formed by a global coalition.

Twenty years ago, this organization had discovered the possibility that the warm current passing through Europa’s Mediterranean Sea could go terribly wrong or even disappear through big data detection.

And thus issued a warning.

The major powers naturally took this warning very seriously and held several important meetings continuously for this purpose.

Then …… then they felt that it was not yet time to do something about it.

After all, this is only a prediction, although the confidence interval is above 95%, but it is not 100%?

And the disappearance should be a slow process, and they were sure that in time they would find a more effective way to deal with it.

Then came the present.

Judging from the data from the scientific probe ship’s detections over the past six months.

What was predicted was slowly happening.

The warm currents close to Europa and even Citi were disappearing, and the speed would probably be much faster than predicted!

“Those big shots won’t be happy when these data are reported.”

“Someone will probably tell them it’s a tactic we’re using to ask for funding.”

“After all, they’ll be inclined to believe that it’s us using a little math to exaggerate the problem.”

An older, somewhat red-jacketed expert summarized with a sigh.

The younger ones were a bit exasperated, but were stifled by a comment from an older man next to them.

In order to fight for funding, they had indeed slightly exaggerated the severity before.

“Alright, don’t all be bad, even if the warm current goes wrong as predicted, it’s just a shift in crop production areas.”

“With the current productivity, the probability of a great famine outside the Black Earth Continent is still very low.”

“And who can say what will happen in the future, maybe a sudden sunspot outbreak and everything will be fine again?”

The red-jacketed expert coughed, sort of ending today’s subject exchange.

After that he looked at the data on the machine and frowned as he picked up his tablet and started uploading the data.

Don’t think he had a knack for placating his team members, but he was actually a pessimist.

Leaning more towards the idea that the warm spell might actually go away and then Europa and Citi were going to have a big problem.

For that reason, he was going to take advantage of this year’s vacation to start moving fixed assets and whatnot to other regions.

After blowing on the sea breeze, the red-jacketed expert, who was already tired of looking at the sea and the endless sky, turned off his tablet and just walked into the cabin.

He then heard an exclamation of surprise:

“Incredible!”

“Are the schools of whales over here going crazy?”

“They’re running fast!”

“Wait, what is this …… this length, are we discovering a new species of whale?”

The red jacket expert was slightly shocked, after hearing the content he also became interested in following a few team members together and surrounded an observer who was looking at the underwater monitoring.

As a scientific exploration ship that had been emphasized and shouldered a variety of important tasks, they were still relatively complete and advanced in terms of equipment.

Through the underwater observation equipment, they were able to drink coffee or hot tea and see the various changes underwater.

Also as a result.

They were surprised to see a white whale flushing out from the school of fish and surfacing quickly!

“Beluga whale! It’s a beluga whale!”

“Quickly film it, it’s excellent documentary material!”

Someone had keenly spotted the opportunity to make extra money.

The red jacket man, however, inexplicably developed some uneasiness.

But he quickly shook his head again to dispel that bit of worry in his heart.

Although their scientific exploration ship was not a 10,000-ton freighter, it was still a 5,000-ton ship.

How could a ship of this class be afraid of a giant beast in the sea?

Even if the rumored large octopus that haunts the deep sea came out, it would not be able to harm this scientific research ship of theirs, right?

Just thinking like this.

Suddenly!

As the observers and onlookers eeped!

They saw a black shadow catching up with the beluga whale with a speed that far exceeded the whale’s swimming speed afterward!

And then this black shadow also rushed out of the water, revealing its pitch-black scale armor and bloody mouth.

With one mouth, it bit off the small half of the beluga’s neck.

And then on the surface of the sea, at an astonishing speed, it ate the remains of the beluga whale, which looked to be at least two or three times bigger than it, with its flesh and bones.

During this time they could only see the black scales on this black shadow’s body under its black mist as well as the strange looking large head and fish tail.

“This …… this is definitely not a creature native to the Aquamarine Star sea.”

“Perhaps this is a sea monster?”

“There are sea monsters in the Granville Sea …… I always thought that the myths and legends of those drunkards were all lies.”

A few of the younger crew members had their mouths open in fear, but more than anything else, they were excited.

Anyone who came aboard had more or less a complex of hoping to stumble upon a sea mystery.

Plus it was still in a place where they felt safe.

There was even a bold one who proposed to operate a detection instrument to remotely detect that black sea monster.

However, the black sea monster on the sea surface thousands of meters away did not dive back after eating the beluga whale.

Instead, it violently turned around and opened its eyes that were flashing with faint golden light to look at the scientific exploration ship.

In the blink of an eye.

The hundreds of crew members on the ship inexplicably felt what it meant to fall into an ice cellar.

Immediately following, they stared wide eyed and realized that the sea monster …… actually flew!

Yes, flew up!

Without wings, it just twisted its fish body, which was even bigger than a large shark, and quickly flew over the scientific exploration ship by twisting its body in the air!

“It’s a transcendental monster!”

“I knew it, the myths and legends are definitely not made up!”

“Holy Lord bless! I don’t want to be eaten by a sea monster!”

The black sea monster flew in mid-air, slowly reducing its altitude and slowly approaching the cabin, after its eyes swept over the people in the cockpit.

The large black fish monster seemed to have found its target and swished away from the people’s eyes.

And then with a bang!

The entire sea ship began to violently warp up and down and fall back to the surface again.

Causing the crowd in the cockpit to fall to the ground at the same time, some people saw it on the surveillance screen.

The sea monster had landed directly on the back of the ship and smashed a large hole, thus causing the sea ship to lose its balance.

Luckily, the sea monster quickly flew out from the broken hole.

After that, it disappeared into the sea water without a second thought.

Leaving behind a group of scared and weak crew members who gasped for a long time before leaving the cockpit in a bit of a mess and looking towards the big hole at the back of the ship.

And after being lost in thought for a while, they reacted with the shouts and curses of a few old sailors, and hurriedly threw themselves into the repair.

And secretly thankful that the sea monster did not destroy the keel and the bottom of the ship, sparing their lives.

The red jacket expert also followed up with his crew.

And after keenly realizing what was going on, he and his team members counted the items placed in the warehouse.

Soon discovered that a box they brought after the expedition at the Arctic Circle expedition site was missing.

The red jacket expert remembered that the box seemed to contain a milky-white ice crystal stone that had been drilled out from the depths of an iceberg somewhere in the Arctic Circle.

Because the texture was a bit strange, the expert saved it and prepared to conduct experiments after returning.

However, he didn’t want it to be taken away by a black sea monster!

Could it be that that thing had some kind of attraction to that sea monster?

Thinking of this, the red jacket expert hurriedly summoned the members of his group back for a meeting, sternly requesting them to keep this a secret.

And then, he hurriedly reported it to his superiors.

It was about the Transcendent Sea Monster.

All the parties that should have been dragging their feet also sped up.

It didn’t take long for a warship in the nearby harbor to end its rest in advance and rush over.

And then, after confirming that there was no major problem with the scientific exploration ship itself.

Europa’s officials sent a helicopter to pick up the red jacket expert and his group members in advance.

Before long, the information about the black sea monster and the mysterious ice crystals dug up in the Arctic Circle would be classified as top secret and then studied by the expert group.

It would be used as one of Europa’s few bargaining chips to deal with other big powers and exchange information.

Big Black didn’t know that he had already been labeled as a Granville Sea Monster by one of the powers.

And had the dietary habit of eating whales.

Hunting beluga whales is only because Big Black intuitively discovered that eating this mutated whale can be quite beneficial to its future divine soul stabilization.

So it ran to eat it.

The blackfish’s head was so simple and direct.

In the same way, after discovering that the big iron ship hid something good that the master named to be watched out for and gotten as much as possible, Big Black flew up into the sky and ran away.

Big Black flew up into the sky and ran there.

And strictly obeyed the master’s command not to kill unless necessary.

Indeed did not against those fragile mortal opponents, just a tail smashed open the iron plate, and then took away the interesting things.

The whole process, big black in the water after also in the mind to review the next, think he did very beautiful.

There should be an opportunity to find the master to claim credit for some elixir to eat!

Just thinking.

Big black suddenly body cold, then saw the right side of a but palm-sized turtle seems to appear in front of the eyes.

And stretched out its short head, staring at itself with narrowed eyes.

Big Black’s body lurched, and a few seconds later spat out an ice crystal stone the size of an adult’s fist from its mouth.

The Xuan Turtle opened its mouth and sucked up the ice crystal stone, which then nodded in satisfaction and turned around to sink to the bottom of the sea.

The Xuan Turtle had recently taken a liking to the undersea volcano.

Not to mention that it could eat some strange and delicious food there.

It could also breathe and resonate with the undersea volcano, and its entire body didn’t enter the volcanic lava, slowly sucking up the volcanic energy at the same time, speeding up the proficiency in terms of growing the divine ability.

It was that the effect of staying at each active volcano for a long time would get worse and worse, making the Xuan Turtle a bit annoyed.

It still prefers to lie flat somewhere and not move, the best food can still be delivered to its mouth.

Xuan turtle bubble volcano bath this scene if by the water blue star human civilization to see, that is sure to be another uproar, attracting countless experts water out of the sea of papers ……

Three days later.

Neil Park.

Mr. Huang and the others held the first Oriental Auction in the decorated factory.

Simple venue, security is extraordinarily tight.

The number of security personnel was even a bit more with the qualified attendees.

On the wall of the transformed factory, there were even anti-aircraft equipment and unmanned turrets.

On the roof of the factory, there was even a large jamming device that could be activated at any time.

At the same time, the identities of the participants this time were not simple.

Apart from a few businessmen who had invested in Mr. Huang and the others from the beginning and had become their friends, they had received invitations.

The rest of the attendees were all rich and noble people from the major powers.

And most of them often also represented the will and mandate of higher level figures.

In addition, more importantly, the president of the Church of the Enlightened Star, who had become popular in the country of the Stick, as well as the yin and yang master in the country of cherry blossoms, also came over to the scene and participated in the auction.

They were considered to be the most honorable guests in the auction.

At the first sight of Mr. Huang and the others, Junichiro Kamo was convinced that these people were the same as himself.

He was convinced that these people had the same exposure to the real mysterious world as himself.

The condescending man then felt that the other party had the status position to talk with himself.

On the other side, that president of the Church of the Enlightened Star had a little bit of embarrassment.

He also felt the extraordinary of Mr. Huang and the other people and the yin and yang master He Mo Junichiro, that kind of high level like the sense of oppression, and his own archbishop brought to himself can not be said to be exactly the same, but also has to be no difference!

He was not much surprised that Mr. Huang and the others were Transcendent.

After all, that terrifying ghost god is still from this side to lead to the stick country.

And that yin and yang master …… the breath he brought with him said that it made this president instinctively a little uncomfortable.

Also therefore intuitively determined that the other party and their own family and Mr. Huang their ghost god is not a path of transcendence.

Fortunately, it didn’t seem to be an enemy, and this auction didn’t look too much like it was going to be an accident.

General Manager Huang personally presided over the auction this time.

And as soon as he came on stage, he gave a show of lifting a large box that was a bit bigger than others with one hand, after placing it on the table with ease.

The heavy large box made a muffled sound.

And after opening it, it allowed everyone to see a weighty piece of fuchsia-colored Jodo woodwork contained inside.

“This is a set of Purple Red Fragrant Wood furniture from the Great Desolate Ancient Kingdom three thousand years ago!”

“Purple-red fragrant wood can disperse snakes, insects, rats and ants, and warm in winter and cool in summer, daily use can also temper the body and mind to make people healthy and long life.”

“It can be described as a rare treasure.”

“Starting bid: ten million Eastern Ancient Kingdom coins!”

The auction was in Eastern Ancient Kingdom coins, a decision that was agreed upon by the Buried Gopher Daoist after Mr. Huang and the others had discussed it.

This was despite the strong protests from some of the Citigroup guests.

However, they were directly stifled by a sentence of come if you can, roll if you don’t.

Citigroup guests behind so many big shots waiting for them to buy things back, where dare really tough?

Good in the ancient Oriental coins in these decades, has been circulated to the various power areas, is not unable to exchange to hand, also had to pinch his nose to accept the provisions of this side.

Ten million dollars of purple and red fragrant wood furniture, was soon speculated to one hundred million.

Finally, at a price of two hundred and thirty million dollars, it was pocketed by a well-known eastern investor.

Mr. Huang believed that this scene would definitely circulate back to his hometown soon.

It was estimated that it wouldn’t be long before perhaps similar imitations would appear on the market.

Then there will be old grandpas and old ladies pointing to their own collections, and then take this fragrant wood furniture photos shouting everyone to come and see, there is a piece of things on the auction he also happened to have a piece of that hand.

Don’t ask if it’s new, just look at the color and shape is not right on it!

Mr. Huang took a sip of hot tea and beckoned.

The companion behind the curtain shook his head, still obeying Mr. Huang’s previous instructions, his hands threw out a large box flying high into the air.

And then Mr. Huang’s right foot gently tapped the ground.

Then he performed martial arts to make himself fly lightly to more than twenty meters in the air, and after easily catching the big box, his right hand held the box, and the whole person slowly descended like a feather.

Make a will fly flexible fat image openly fell into the eyes of thousands of participants.

Let them marvel at, can not help but a burst of envy and jealousy.

These people were able to come here, naturally, they had read Mr. Huang’s information.

Knowing the history of this fat man’s fortune and subsequent experiences.

It was clear that a few months ago, this guy was a small local tycoon.

At that time, this kind of small tycoon didn’t even have the qualifications to attend their ball and kiss their asses!

Such a small character, now became an object that they had to treat with care, and even climbed up a bit!

The reversal of status had to make some people lament the marvelous creation of fate.

After Mr. Huang gently landed on the ground, he looked at the complicated gazes of those attending the meeting.

He enjoyed it very much.

Especially noticed that a long time ago he went to visit the results of the peer big brother ate the closed door.

Now he was looking at himself jealously.

Mr. Huang only felt that his little vanity had been greatly satisfied!

There is a kind of old man also have today’s pleasure in the chest constantly filled.

Mr. Huang opened the second big box.

From inside, he took out four large vases that were more than a meter tall.

“This color …… is a Ru kiln azure vase?”

“No, this color is similar, but the luster is more moist and comfortable.”

“And the pattern on those bottles, this painting …… is definitely a painting of a famous artist, but I can’t find a clue!”

A few attendees who were extremely interested in antiques immediately stared wide-eyed, tsk-tsking at these vases.

More people cared about the origin of this vase and the significance represented by the contents of the vase.

Even the slowest of the attendees had more or less realized it.

Those seemingly valuable items in the auction.

It was likely that they were not products of the world’s culture that they recognized.

Rather, they were the cultural products of another world or the mortal world under the control of mysterious forces.

They, who had supplemented their knowledge of myths and legends, thought of the mythical Paradise Lost, the Mountain and Sea Realm, and various cave legends.

And secretly guessed which mythical place these things were more likely to come from.

After selling antiques at high prices several times in a row.

Mr. Huang announced an intermission.

And provided the guests with hot tea provided by the health tea bags.

Although the attendees were either rich or noble, the number of tea bags was ultimately limited, and with many people not believing at first that they missed the first opportunity, there was no shortage of them who had tasted this tea for the first time.

All of them had a stirring in their hearts after drinking the tea, realizing the extraordinary nature of these teas.

No matter whether they had drunk it or not, afterward, they all deepened the idea of buying these tea bags to drink as water.

A few minutes later.

Mr. Huang reappeared on stage with a smile.

“Cough cough cough, there will be a good thing on stage next.”

“This thing, it won’t be of much use to ordinary people.”

Saying this, Mr. Huang swept over the crowd below and paused on the faces of He Mo Junichiro and that Enlightened Star Church’s president.

He then took out a small wooden case.

After opening the case, a tiny jade slip was taken out from it.

“This is an inheritance jade slip from the Southern Wasteland Region.”

“The content has nothing to do with feats, it should be a cultivator’s knowledge of the miscellaneous arts of life.”

General Manager Huang said this, extended a finger, and said a low price.

Soon, the auction was bustling with activity.

Even if it had nothing to do with Transcendent Feats, it would be excellent to learn more about the living habits of Transcendents.

Regardless of the forces, they were all quite interested in this.

However, after Junichiro Kamo stood up with a swish and stated a high price.

The meeting hall quieted down again.

Many people chose to give up after mentally calculating the gains and losses between offending a Transcendent and the Jade Slip, as well as the steps given by that high price.

Then, He Mo Junichiro got the jade slip.

And it was delivered on the spot by Mr. Huang.

He Mo Junichiro had been in a small dark room in the Cave in the Pot.

Inwardly, he was very eager to learn about the true transcendent world.

Just after holding the jade slip tightly and inputting his mana.

This Yin Yang Master could not help but be slightly stunned.

He didn’t expect that in this inheritance jade slip that he had bought at a high price, what was recorded was actually more than a hundred kinds of spiritual plant cultivation methods.

What value did this thing have to him right now?

Wait, the Grudge Flower in this Spiritual Planting Technique, the Seven Sins Grass seemed like something he could try himself?

He Mo Junichiro took his time to check it out, and after seeing the sideways arts in the jade slip, his heart sighed in relief.

It seemed that he really did have the luck of the draw and was a man of heaven’s destiny!

No money was wasted in exchange for a useless object!

He Mo Junichiro sat back in his seat satisfied.

Then the auction continued.

After selling some of the antiques, Mr. Huang would auction off some strange and mysterious items.

For example, the Heavenly Thunder engraved stone, the Spring Recovery Pill, and some jewelry that can be worn for a long time and have health benefits.

When the auction came to an end.

Mr. Huang arched his hands and thanked the participants for their help.

Clapped his hands.

At that moment, the roof lights over the factory dimmed down and more nearly bright up shining on the podium.

Mr. Huang smiled and said:

“Thank you all for your presence, willing to come to this bird’s nest place.”

“So we’ve totaled it up and decided to treat you all to a casual dinner!”

Saying this, the attendants came in through the back door.

Setting the simple wooden bar table in front of the guests.

And distributed simple dinner plates.

After another moment, as Mr. Huang carefully opened a wooden barrel.

At once!

The entire venue was filled with some sort of incomparably sweet odor.

It made everyone, including Hermo Junichiro, have a huge appetite, and their stomachs began to growl.

Especially after staying in this spiritless environment and smelling the spiritual rice aroma, He Mo Junichiro instinctively secreted a large amount of saliva.

Mr. Huang also secretly swallowed his saliva.

If it wasn’t for Daoist Mouse’s instructions, he would have hated to eat the rice cooked from these spiritual rice all by himself.

Looking at these crystal clear, distinct grains of rice.

Mr. Huang inhaled a deep breath of aroma.

His hands conjured up residual shadows, distributing clumps of rice onto the plates in front of the attendees.

The bento rice …… is really just a tiny ball of rice.

The portion was not enough for an adult to swallow in one bite.

But no one in attendance questioned or was annoyed.

Looking at the spiritual rice in front of them that they had never eaten before.

They have produced some kind of illusion that this is the world’s rare delicacy!
