As Vincent stepped onto the stage, the atmosphere in the auction hall instantly froze.
There were very few creatures who were still conscious. Nevertheless, those who were conscious felt extremely incredulous about the current situation.
Most of the creatures who were in the auction hall were all there for the dragon egg in Vincent’s hands. However, no one had expected that Randall the dragon would react indifferently after seeing Vincent. Not only did he let go of the dragon egg, but he even helped Vincent to stop those who wanted to attack him.
Hans, who was standing on the stage, looked at Vincent in front of him, his eyes filled with confusion.
This was because he suddenly realized that he did not know Vincent at all. He did not even know his name, and he also did not know how he had obtained the dragon egg.
Initially, Hans thought that Vincent was a wanderer who had accidentally obtained the dragon egg. However, after seeing Randall’s reaction, it seemed that Vincent had obtained the dragon egg for another reason.
Hans lowered his voice and questioned Vincent with a face full of anger, “Do you know what you are doing? You are putting the Star Race at risk!”
Vincent did not care about Hans. He replied with a normal expression, “The dragon egg is in my hands. Everyone present today is a witness. How I deal with this dragon egg is my business. What are you afraid of? In the future, even if the Dragon Race comes to seek revenge, it has nothing to do with the Star Race!”
Hans was so angry that he forgot to breathe. He replied in an angry tone, “Mr. Randall is a dragon! You took out the dragon egg in front of him. How can you still sell the dragon egg to me?”
Vincent frowned slightly. He raised his voice and said, “Sell? I never said that I would sell the dragon egg to the Star Race. I just wanted to use the dragon egg as collateral to exchange for some quotas to participate in the auction. Even if I don’t have enough red crystals on me today, I will only leave the dragon egg with you temporarily. When I earn enough red crystals in the future, I will naturally come and redeem them from the Star Race. Don’t tell me that you plan on going back on your word?”
Hans did not expect Vincent to reveal the deal between them in public. At the same time, he felt the temperature around him drop drastically.
This was because Randall, who was sitting below the stage, was staring at him with a gloomy face. It looked as if he was ready to eat him alive at any time!
In a moment of desperation, Hans could only force himself to say, “The Star Race has always done business openly. We have made a mortgage-like agreement from the very beginning. The Star Race will never covet this dragon egg in your hand. I hope you don’t misunderstand!”
Vincent nodded. He raised his hand and stored the Black Tortoise’s heart into his storage ring. He smiled and said, “In that case, I am relieved. This Black Tortoise’s heart now belongs to me. As I have an unlimited quota, I am prepared to continue participating in the next auction!”
Hans raised his hand to cover his chest as he took a deep breath. Even though he had been in business for many years and had long been accustomed to big storms, he had never seen such a shameless person like Vincent.
The so-called mortgage agreement was nothing more than an excuse to trade for the dragon egg. Everyone knew it well in their hearts!
However, Vincent had suddenly started to play games with Hans right in front of Randall, causing Hans to no longer have a reason to keep the dragon egg for himself. At the same time, Vincent still had the unlimited quota that Hans had promised him. He was ready to continue participating in the next auction. Vincent could technically use this empty check that could not be cashed to buy all of the auction items. It was clear that he wanted to take advantage of the Star Race!
Hans’s heart was aching. However, he did not dare to argue with Vincent in front of Randall, nor did he dare to end the auction in advance. He could only grit his teeth and swallow his loss.
The smile on Vincent’s face was still warm. He waved at Hans and look down below the stage.
Most of the creatures in the auction hall were still unconscious. Vincent only saw a few figures sitting in various corners of the auction hall. It seemed that their purpose for coming was not for the dragon egg, therefore, they did not choose to attack Vincent earlier. They had successfully avoided the disaster.
Vincent shifted his gaze to the front of the auction stage, pointed at the booth next to Randall, and said, “It’s too stuffy upstairs. For the next auction, I’ll just sit here!”
Vincent directly jumped down from the arena and sat steadily on the sofa in the booth. He did not wait for anyone’s instructions. He also did not forget to gently toss the dragon egg in his hand whilst catching it steadily again.
Hans could not help but feel suffocated after watching Vincent’s every move. He was playing with the dragon egg in front of a dragon. He was simply courting death. Hans no longer wanted the dragon egg, nor did he want to have anything to do with Vincent. He did not want to be caught in the crossfire when the Dragon Race decides to take revenge.
“Alright, since you are willing to sit here, then sit down. The auction will continue!” said Hans with a gloomy face. He then walked backstage in a cold manner, hoping that everyone would know that his relationship with Vincent was not good.
Vincent smiled disapprovingly and continued to play with the dragon egg in his hand whilst looking at the auction stage calmly.
Randall, who had been silent for a long time, finally spoke out.
He asked with a gloomy expression, “How long have you been holding onto this dragon egg in your hand?”
Vincent said indifferently, “It’s been three hours since I left the trading market!”
Randall did not look at Vincent. He just nodded silently and then said in a deep voice, “Since you want to hold it like this, then hold it firmly! If you hurt my child, I guarantee that you will die a terrible death!”
Vincent replied with a smile, “Don’t worry, as long as there is no external interference, I will not drop it! My hands are very steady!”
Randall did not speak anymore. He also raised his head to look at the auction stage. He signaled for the auctioneer to continue the auction.
Adrian, who had been listening to the conversation between Vincent and Randall, finally recovered from his shock. A smile appeared on his face because he thought that he had finally understood why Randall was acting this way.
Randall’s dragon egg was in danger. The egg should be very fragile and cannot be damaged. Therefore, Randall could not attack Vincent as he wanted to protect the dragon egg.
Adrian thought the situation through excitedly. At the same time, he came up with a crazy plan, because he was confident that with his strength, he could kill Vincent without damaging the dragon egg.
Not only would this brave act help him win over Randall’s favor, but it would also help the Moon Association establish their power at the Inn..
