Before entering Club Chica, he was taken to a room to choose a mask of his choice.
This is the rule of the Chica Club, and it is not because we are afraid of making money or killing people. After all, the cards auctioned here can only be used as collectibles. Everyone comes here just to have fun. Who would really know how to do this? What about breaking the law for these worthless cards?
The main reason why I was asked to wear a mask was to satisfy the boss behind the scenes with his damn sense of ritual.
I don’t know where he learned it. Masks must be worn during auctions. Members are not allowed to meet each other and can only stay in the arranged room to bid.
In this situation of not knowing the identity of the other party, there is a lot less worldliness and a lot more gunpowder.
However, this mode is exactly what Ye Qiong needs. Li Shaoan and Wang Luanqing must be very familiar with him. If they really meet, they will definitely choose to escape immediately.
In order to avoid alerting the enemy, he only needed to stay in his room and slowly find the two of them based on the information.
"Your Excellency, Branch Picker, the two people you are looking for are in Room 89 and Room 36 respectively."
Should it be said that he is worthy of being a god with the power of destiny? Less than three minutes after entering the Chica Club, they had already found the location of Li Shaoan and Wang Luanqing.
This goddess of fate is too easy to use, right?
Following the staff's guidance, he quickly arrived on the third floor and entered his room. The room number was No. 45. It was neither near the front nor behind, so it would not attract anyone's attention.
There is a sofa and wooden table placed in the room. There are fruits and snacks on the table for guests to eat. Other than that, there are no extra decorations.
In front of you is a transparent glass window. According to the staff, this is a single-sided window that can only see the outside from the inside. Occasionally, some members will come here specifically to do some exciting things.
The auction was in full swing on the first floor, and they were engaged in a hearty duel.
The young lady responsible for receiving him did not leave immediately, but gave him a wink, which was a signal to initiate a duel invitation.
Her appearance is not bad, her facial features are exquisite, and her smart business attire highlights her exquisite figure, making her look very tempting.
However, regarding this proposal, Ye Qiong shook his head decisively and chose to refuse. He came here because he had something serious to do, and he didn't have time to do that kind of thing.
The most important thing is that there are three goddesses and a magic dragon living in his body.
The mirror in the room was indeed a one-way mirror, but his sea of consciousness was not, and he had no interest in attending a live broadcast.
Seeing that the members all chose to refuse, the receptionist had no choice but to retreat. A trace of regret flashed in his eyes as he could not eat this piece of fresh meat.
After the door closed, Apponias's voice sounded in Ye Qiong's ears:
"Your Excellency, Mr. Picker, why did you choose to refuse? Don't worry, we have a sense of propriety and we will definitely not peek."
"The goal is right in front of me, and I have no interest in being distracted by such things."
"Then if there is no goal, you won't refuse?"
"Why do you ask so many questions?"
"Nothing, just a little curious."
After saying this, he silently added in his heart: "What is so special about the person who is favored by that witch?"
He did not say the second half of the sentence. Seeing that Lord Gatherer was not interested in talking about this topic anymore, he did not ask any more questions.
Twenty minutes passed. Members arrived one after another, and the auctioneer in charge of the auction had also arrived. Through the transparent window, he could clearly see the woman on the first floor.
Wearing an elegant cheongsam, she looks pretty and always has a nice smile on her face.
During her self-introduction, Ye Qiong learned the name of this female auctioneer.
Xiao Li.
She knew the purpose of the members present here and did not make a long speech. After briefly introducing herself, she went straight to the topic and slowly introduced the first card.
【Devil Hound】
This is a cyan entry-level card, and its effect is not very conspicuous. It can only put a card from the graveyard back into the deck.
However, this is a card that has not been recorded on the Tianyan system, which means it is a brand new card discovered by a card master in a secret realm.
Except for a few members, most people are not interested in it. Although it is a card that is not recorded in the Tianyan system, its actual value is just that. A cyan entry-level card like this, as long as you have the first Zhang, then you can definitely find the second type, which does not have much collection value.
The few people bidding on it probably just wanted to have fun and buy it back for collection.
Ye Qiong took a look and saw that Rooms 36 and 89, which he was most concerned about, did not choose to bid. Obviously, the [Devil Hunting Hound] was not the target of their trip.
The auction of the first card ended very quickly. The previous ones were just appetizers, and the main event was yet to come.
The cards that appeared next were basically ones that Ye Qiong had never heard of or seen before.
[Despair Believer]: This card has no effect.
[Dark Fireflies]: Discard two cards from your hand and place [Forest of Fireflies] in the environment magic card area.
[Fanatical Savior]: Discard all cards in your hand to the graveyard. Each card discarded will cause 3% damage to the enemy duelist.
[Doomsday Rhapsody]: This card can only be activated after it exists on the field for ten turns, and you will directly win the duel.
These cards being auctioned are basically cards that have not been recorded on the Tianyan system. They are not considered super models in terms of effects. The most important thing is their rarity.
The members in each room couldn't stand it anymore and started to raise their prices.
In order to better integrate into it, Ye Qiong raised the number card and handed it over for several rounds. This action was not to take pictures of these cards, but just to act more like a member who joined the auction.
I don’t know if Li Shaoan and Wang Luanqing had the same idea. When [Dark Fireflies] and [Doomsday Rhapsody] appeared, they both raised their number plates to bid, but they didn’t choose to grab them.
Obviously, these two cards are not their real targets for this auction.
This made Ye Qiong a little curious. These two guys came here specially. Which card did they want to take?
The auction was still going on, but Ye Qiong did not choose to raise the number plate anymore, but silently waited for Li Shaoan and Wang Luanqing to take action.
The waiting process was not long. About thirty minutes later, a card named [Iron-Eating Insect Beast] appeared on the auction floor.
This is a high-level blue card with a decent effect and has not caused too many waves.
Even though the auctioneer named Xiao Li worked hard to promote the auction, there were only a few placard holders.
Among the few placard-raisers was Room 36, where Li Shaoan was located.
Rarely, he showed his determination to get this card and immediately raised the price to 100,000.
Room No. 89, where Wang Luanqing was, also raised his card to join the competition. He seemed to like this card very much.
The remaining members did not join the competition. Then only one of Li Shaoan and Wang Luanqing gave up the competition to easily win the target card.
If Ye Qiong had not appeared in Chica Club.
He did not immediately join the competition, but carefully observed the card.
[Card Name: Iron-Eating Worm Beast]
[Grade: Blue Advanced]
[Type: Monster Card]
[Introduction: Strange insects that feed on iron. The iron they eat will condense into special crystals, which are strangely attractive to certain creatures. 】
[Effect 1: Iron Crystal]
[Once per turn, send the monsters, magic, and trap cards with "Iron" in the card name on the field to the graveyard, and add [Iron Crystal] to the hand card. (Note: "Kazkaz" is the sound made by the insect beast when it eats iron.)]
The effect is extremely mediocre. Apart from being rare, this card is useless.
Why did Li Shaoan and An Chenghua get this card at auction?
Ye Qiong didn't think about it carefully. He raised the number plate in his hand without hesitation and joined the competition. He was not sure whether Li Shaoan was really fighting for it or just pretending like before.
If he grabs the opponent for several rounds and still doesn't put down the number card in his hand, then you can be sure that this is the card the opponent wants for this trip.
Obviously, Li Shaoan did not expect that with the competition reaching this level, someone would still come to snatch it.
Logically speaking, not many people should need this kind of card.
Are they collectors of Zerg cards, or have they been discovered?
Suspicious, he raised the number plate in his hand again, he wanted to test the other party's attitude.
But what Li Shaoan never expected was that the man in room 45 only competed for a few rounds before choosing to give up.
If it were the Countermeasures Bureau, they would not specifically take actions to arouse the target's alert. They would do more secret investigation.
The other party's behavior seemed more like a buyer who was suddenly interested in the card.
Thinking of this, he put aside his doubts and sent a message to Wang Luanqing in Room 89 to give up the fight.
Losing the competition between Ye Qiong and Wang Luanqing, Li Shaoan easily took a photo of this [Iron-Eating Insect Beast]. After the auction ends and the money is paid, he can get this card. .
In the next auction, they did not choose to take action again.
This performance also convinced Ye Qiong that what they needed was the card [Iron-Eating Insect Beast].
Why did he choose to give up the competition?
The reason is simple. It is not yet time for a head-on conflict to break out.
With the electronic dragon's abilities, they could easily find Ye Qiong's location even if they were wearing masks and in a separate room.
If they are really determined to win this card, they will definitely use the assassination gun.
With Ye Qiong's combat power, he is definitely not afraid of Li Shaoan and Wang Luanqing, but what if more than 200 electronic dragons attack at the same time?
You must know that the concepts of "erosion" and "devourment" he has attached to these electronic dragons have not yet fully taken effect. It will take at least a day or two before the electronic dragons' combat power can be significantly reduced. When Qiong really wants to take action.
All we have to do now is wait and see what happens and see what Li Shaoan and the others are going to do.
At about nine o'clock, the auction officially ended.
Li Shaoan and Wang Luanqing chose to leave immediately, obviously afraid of being pursued by the Countermeasures Bureau.
Ye Qiong wanted to follow him, but he didn't expect that at this moment, he heard a knock on the door:
"Mr. Ye?"
"come in."
The person who knocked on the door was no stranger to Ye Qiong. He was the security guard named "Lao Wang" whom he saw in front of the club.
I saw him walking forward slowly, lowering his head and saying respectfully:
"Our boss wants to meet you."
"No need, I still have things to do."
He originally thought that the other party would hold back a few words, or report to the boss behind him before giving an answer, but he didn't expect that he would just nod and reply:
"The boss said that if Mr. Ye is busy with work, we can make an appointment another day. Can you leave me a contact number?"
"Can."
Ye Qiong informed Lao Wang of his phone number, and then decisively chose to leave. If he had left later, Li Shaoan and Wang Luanqing might have disappeared long ago.
At this moment, Lao Wang was the only one left in the room. He took out his mobile phone and reported to the boss behind him:
"he's gone."
"Who? From the Countermeasures Bureau, or those fugitives? Didn't I tell you everything? If you have anything to say, just say it, you spend all day messing with those vain people."
"Ye Qiong, that guy who calls himself the Countermeasure Bureau."
"What does he call himself? He is from the Countermeasures Bureau."
"Boss, have you checked?"
"Of course I have checked. This guy is not simple. He was the one who solved the problem in Zhenlong Valley."
Lao Wang hesitated slightly before saying the next sentence:
"Boss, if you let those fugitives in, are you really not afraid of being investigated?"
"I'm afraid of a ball, and I didn't know they were fugitives. Lao Wang, I've told you so many times, just understand some things by heart, there's no need to be so direct."
Lao Wang
Boss, what do you mean?
Do you want me to speak more directly or more tactfully?
But who says someone is the boss and he is just a subordinate?
The abuse in his belly finally turned into one sentence:
"Boss, you are right."
"You just scolded me secretly in your heart, right?"
"Of course, it is my lifelong honor, Wang Hanze, to be able to work with the Third Young Master of Vanke Company."
"Oh, I'm just doing that trick again, forget it, I'm in a good mood today, so I won't worry about you anymore.
By the way, no one from the Countermeasures Bureau has been here today, and no fugitives have been here. You don't know anything, do you understand? "
"That's natural. I understand what you mean, boss."
"That's fine, send me that guy's phone number, I'm very interested in him.
Even though the higher-ups say he is not a savior, why do I feel that I can put a bet on him? "(End of chapter)
