The Legendary Man

Chapter 88 A Game

Once he said that, a female auctioneer clad in a miniskirt strutted to the stage with a silver tray in her hands.

She was Luna Hansley.

There was a red cloth covering the tray. The moment she removed it, a medicinal scent wafted all around the venue.

Instead of a thick scent, it was mellow and elegant.

Underneath the red cloth was a black pill.

It looked like a fake pill one would see in a fraudulent advertisement lying that one could stay sexually stimulated for the entire night after taking it.

Luna announced excitedly, “This is our highlight of the event, the Pill of Life! It is said that the alchemist who developed this pill used a total of forty-nine days to perfect this pill. The Pill of Life is able to turn things around and save a person from dying. In other words, no matter how serious your wounds are or how sick you are, as long as you’re still breathing, this pill will be able to save you! Is there anything more important than staying alive? No! Thus, the starting bid for the Pill of Life is one hundred million, with an increase in the bid of no less than ten million!”

After she made it clear, someone immediately barked, “One hundred and ten million!”

“One hundred and twenty million!” another hollered.

Clearly, this Pill of Life was more sought after compared to the previous lavender jade figurine. After all, the latter was just an ornamental stone, while the Pill of Life could save someone’s life.

“Two hundred million!”

Suddenly, someone increased the bid by eighty million, making the current bid a total of two hundred million.

At once, an eerie silence ensued in the venue.

No one dared to increase the bid!

After all, this voice belonged to Preston York, who had just given Harrison a hard time earlier.
