Chapter 850
“Everyone, calm down. It will start soon!” A host in a suit and leather shoes was standing on the high platform with a microphone in hand.
“Before the auction begins, fet me first introduce Hawksworth Manor,” the host started.
“This villa is the most expensive and luxurious in Frihamen City. Five years ago, a mysterious man bought this villa, but he did not settle the official documents. Hence, this villa has been idle for five years without anyone moving in.” The host’s voice carried across the area.
The host explained, “Because it’s been too long, we’ve decided to auction off the empty Hawksworth Manor for a second time. Apart from being the highest bidder, the bidder also needs to have powers that are at least above the level of an Elite Warrior.”
“Shouldn’t money be enough to bid for the villa?” Someone in the crowd asked, “Why is someone’s power important? Is that not discrimination?”
“This isn’t discrimination. The reason for this is that there are dozens of precious and ferocious White Stallions being raised in this villa. Moreover, there are countless hidden traps set in the villa. If you can’t deal with them, you won’t be able to move in even if you spend the money on it,” the host explained helplessly.
The host continued, “Therefore, those who don’t have the strength to resist the White Stallions or the hidden traps should consider looking at other villas instead of participating in the bidding.”
As soon as these words were spoken, everyone below was in an uproar. They knew now that money was not enough to take down this villa.
“Everyone, calm down. The auction is about to begin. Please confirm the highest price that you can accept and confirm if the funds in your account are sufficient,” the host announced just as Raven and Cassian walked into the sales hall.
Raven raised hef eyebrows, and it seemed like she was very interested in this villa.
She would not be surprised if the bidding price for the villa was high. After all, every inch of land in Forreb was worth a lot of money. She could not fathom who would raise so many White Stallions and set up so many traps.
“My dear, the previous owner of this villa is so strange. He spent money to buy a villa and disappeared. Moreover, he arranged so many messy things in the villa. Could it be a Frankenstein who is experimenting with the White Stallions? How perverted!” Cassian shuddered and whispered into Raven’s ear.
“Why don’t we change to another villa? Will this place be inauspicious?” Cassian added.
Although he said that, he was truly worried that Raven did not have that much money. After all, they were no longer hiding their identities. No matter how he looked at it, they did not look like people who could buy the best villa in Frihamen City.
“It’s okay. Let’s take a look first.” Raven was a little interested in this villa. Moreover, she had previously encountered a White Stallion in the lower realm and had felt that they were good to have by her side. Raven felt that having a dozen White Stallions guarding the house did not seem like a bad choice.
White Stallions were known to be rare even in Forreb. Even the Valor family probably could not find so many in one go.
“Oh? Isn’t that the lowly commoner?” Someone suddenly shouted from the crowd. Suddenly, all the other gazes looked in the direction of Raven and
Cassian.
Raven glanced sideways and saw Dangelo and the few family heads who were friends with the Barrera family.
These people had seen Raven when they went to the Cherry family to curry favor with Mack. Therefore, they were surprised to see Raven at the auction venue for the villa.
“Commoner, even if you want to buy a house, this isn’t the place you should be!” One of them mocked.
“That’s right. The low–rent apartment is next door. Given your current conditions, you can probably apply for it if you work hard. However, even that will be hard to guarantee if your identity as a stowaway is exposed…” Another voice chipped in.
