A Man Like None Other (Jared Chance) novel Chapter 3744

After a moment of contemplation, Alastair whispered, “I know of an auction, but to enter, each person has to pay a million spirit coins, SO…”

“I’ll pay for you. Bring me there.” Jared fathomed Alastair’s intention. He doesn’t want to spend his money!

After listening to Jared’s response, Alastair beamed with joy and said, “Okay. I’ll take you there right now. I’ve never even entered that place before.”

Alastair navigated through the bustling market with Jared. Eventually, they arrived in front of a grand hall. At the entrance of the hall, two Seventh Level Tribulators stood guard.

Jared was astounded to see the strength of those guards. The more he observed, the more he realized the extraordinary nature of the person running that underground market.

Upon seeing Alastair and Jared arrive, one of the guards extended his hand.

Jared was taken aback. Alastair quickly chimed in, “You need to pay.”

Only then did Jared gain clarity. He quickly pulled out two purple spirit coins and handed them over.

Upon seeing the purple spirit coin, the two guards immediately stepped aside. Then, both simultaneously made a light sweeping gesture with their hands.

Subsequently, Jared and Alastair were both shrouded in an enigmatic aura. The aura, akin to a spiritual energy shield, enveloped the two of them.

Jared furrowed his brows slightly, instinctively wanting to resist.

“Don’t move. It’s okay. This is to prevent the leakage of our aura. Anyone who enters here isn’t allowed to reveal their aura. Also, we need to alter your appearance a bit. That way, no one will know who anyone is. That’s because there are some items in this auction that are worth a fortune. This is done to ensure the safety of the buyers. After all, it would be dangerous if someone set their sights on the buyers,”

Alastair explained the rules to Jared.

Jared figured perhaps that was also meant to intimidate those present at the scene better.

The elderly man’s words were indeed effective.

The scene, which was somewhat noisy just a moment ago, had now become incredibly quiet.

Seeing everyone quiet and settled down, the elderly man continued, “There’s another rule around here. Once you’ve bought something, the sale is final. No returns or exchanges are allowed. Before you bid, make sure you’ve accurately assessed the item’s value. If it seems worth it, go ahead and bid. If not, don’t. Once you’ve won the item, don’t come to us claiming it’s a fake. We won’t take responsibility for that.”

Jared thought. The elderly man’s words made sense. That’s just how auctions work. One should assess the item’s value and bid if one feels it’s worth it. If not, one shouldn’t bid. No one is going to pay for another’s decisions. At this point, everyone’s experience will be put to the test. If one ends up buying a counterfeit, it’ll be utterly embarrassing. That’ll be no different from suffering a double loss.
