A Magical Journey Starting at Hogwarts
Chapter 896: The feeling of being targeted, the pricing of the Infinity Stones (1/2)
Aaron and his thought body shuddered at the same time, as if they were stared at by some ferocious beast.
"Master, what's wrong with you?" Ya Ke frowned.
"Nothing."
"Boss, do you have a cold?" Jane looked at Aaron in confusion.
"Ah? Yes, I caught a cold." Aaron nodded with a dry smile, "It will be fine in a few days."
"What's going on?" The thought body communicated with Aaron in his mind, "It's okay if I'm being targeted, after all, I'm in the limelight now, and I can't hide in the public eye, but why are you being targeted?"
"Loki." Aaron said concisely, "I felt a little uneasy after he read out Gaius's last name."
"Is that so?" The thought body thought for a while and said, "Same time, same feeling.
We should be targeted by the same person, no, by the same group of people, and the reason... should be the same."
"Gaius's identity, this is the only reason I'm being noticed." Aaron's face was slightly gloomy, and he said thoughtfully: "But you were also noticed for this reason, which is a bit unreasonable."
"Could it be that they saw that I was Aaron Gaius's clone?
Impossible! The thought body is a magic that divides memory, body and even strength equally. Unless the main body actively cancels it, the clone is an independent life form.
Add to that our current status as the Fire Demon and the Lord of Half Dimension, even Odin can't recognize it.
What's more, I haven't shown my face yet. I only said a few words from beginning to end. Why do they suspect that I am Gaius? "
"Only those who suspect your identity know this." Aaron's brain was working fast, and after a few seconds of silence, he said, "Now we have two advantages.
First, this is just a suspicion, and they have no direct evidence to prove our identities.
Second, they don't know that you are my clone, which means that if one person is exposed, the other person is safe. "
Thought body:......
This feeling...deja vu!
"I understand. It's the clone! It has to sacrifice for the original body at the critical moment."
"Don't say it so harshly, although it is true." Aaron was a little embarrassed, but soon he straightened his face, "If I'm not wrong, the test will start soon, maybe they will find you after the auction."
"It's possible that they will find you."
"So after the auction, I will leave Tallin Star immediately.
Even if I can't leave, I will hide. As long as they can't find me, they will naturally target you."
"Haha! It's worthy of me." The thought body said sarcastically, and then sighed lightly, "I am now standing in front of the stage, and it's not so easy to hide."
"Since you can't hide, you can only face it.
As long as you don't use magic spells, they may not be able to test your identity."
"What if they find out?" The thought body had to worry. After all, he was inexplicably targeted by others even if he didn't do anything. Who knows if they have other means!
"If they have no ill intentions, don't let them see your face. If they have malicious intentions, then kill them!
If they have malicious intentions and can't beat them..." Aaron smiled bitterly, "Then I can only run away with the money, and give up the farms, ranches, and universal capsule companies.
If I am unlucky and fail to run away, then..."
"Then I can only count it as my bad luck." The thought body rolled its eyes, "If this is the worst case, I promise that I will die without a burial place, and I will not let them have the opportunity to see my body alive or dead."
"Let's drink a bottle of Fuling first! It will also improve our luck."
......
After cutting off the connection, Aaron took out a bottle of Fuling from the space ring, opened the bottle and poured the light golden potion into his mouth.
After a while, Lorelai said solemnly: "The thinking time is over, and now the auction of the real rough stone will begin. Everyone can bid."
"One trillion."
"Two trillion."
"Five trillion."
......
As soon as Lorelai finished speaking, someone raised the auction board to bid.
The whole venue was completely boiling, the voices of bidding came one after another, and the price increase was completely unreasonable, breaking through the 50 trillion mark in the blink of an eye.
However, this price also exceeded the psychological expectations of many people. Many people put down the auction cards in their hands and unwillingly joined the ranks of onlookers.
"One hundred trillion." Ebony Maw raised the card and shouted, directly raising the price to another level.
The whole venue was quiet at first, and then there was an overwhelming cheer.
As the universal currency of the entire universe, the cosmic currency has a very high purchasing power. The total wealth of ordinary people may not reach six figures.
One hundred trillion cosmic coins are enough to buy a planet with very rich resources.
They have learned a lot today, and it is not an exaggeration to say that they have witnessed history.
"One hundred and fifty trillion." Ronan personally raised the auction card and shouted.
"Accuser, do you want to compete with the great Titan?" Ebony Maw said angrily.
"At the auction, it's about who has more money." Ronan retorted, unwilling to be outdone. Although the Kree is not very popular, it is still one of the most powerful and developed civilizations in the universe, and it definitely has a lot of money.
As for offending Thanos, once he gets the Reality Stone, Thanos will not pose a threat to him at all.
"One hundred and sixty trillion." Supreme Nova raised his placard calmly.
When Ronan saw that the bidder was from the Xandar people, new and old hatreds suddenly surged in his heart, "One hundred and eighty trillion."
"Two hundred trillion."
"Two hundred and ten trillion."
Nova frowned slightly, "Two hundred and twenty trillion."
Ronan gritted his teeth in anger, and just as he was about to continue to raise his placard, Korras hurriedly stopped him, "Master, our funds have..."
Ronan shook off his arm, "Two hundred and fifty trillion."
"Master." Korras looked at him with tears in his eyes, "This is all the funds provided by the mother planet to us, even the military expenses for the next and the next battles have been prepaid in advance."
"Do you want me to sit back and watch Xandar get the Infinity Stones?" Ronan cursed viciously, "Once they succeed, how can I avenge my father and grandfather? Countless Kree people who died because of Xandar will also be disappointed."
Korras was speechless and retreated silently.
"Ronan is spending a lot of money!" Nova Supreme said solemnly, "Commander Sal, how much money can Xandar still mobilize?"
"At most 40 trillion, this is the limit."
Nova Supreme frowned, but Lorelai didn't give her time to react, "250 trillion for the first time, 250 trillion for the second time, 250 trillion..."
"260 trillion." Nova Supreme shouted hurriedly, betting all the funds that Xandar could mobilize to barely prevent Lorelai from dropping the hammer.
"Nova Supreme, this..." Sal looked at her hesitantly, "Isn't this too impulsive?
Ronan only offered 250 trillion, we can just offer 1 trillion more than him, there is no need to bet all the treasures at once?"
"We must stop Ronan from getting the Reality Stone at all costs, otherwise Xandar will definitely enter the countdown to doomsday."
"Nova Supreme bid 260 trillion, an unprecedented big deal!
Is there any higher bid? No?
Okay, then 260 trillion for the first time..."
"261 trillion." Ronan raised the quotation board in anger, "Xandar can't even think about getting the Infinity Stone."
Lorelai rolled her eyes in contempt, "Accuser of Kree, according to the accounting investigation, the funds you can mobilize now are not even 261 trillion.
Mr. Slytherin will not accept a false quotation."
"Why do you say I can't produce it? What evidence do you have?" Ronan said fiercely, he didn't believe Lorelai could still check the accounts on the spot.
"Lorelai doesn't have the ability to check accounts, but I do." Ramon looked at him playfully and said, "The limit of Kree is 250 trillion, right?
Unfortunately, the limit of Xandar is 260 trillion, so..."
"I understand." Lorelai smiled lightly, "260 trillion for the first time, 260 trillion for the second time..."
Lorelai's voice is beautiful, but it is extremely harsh to Ronan.
"Wait."
"Does the accuser have any questions?"
Ronan took a deep breath and turned to look at Thanos, "Thanos."
"What's wrong, kid?" Thanos looked at him with a smile.
"Help me this time, I will pay you back, and I will owe you a favor."
"Your favor?" Thanos shook his head disdainfully, "Your favor is worthless to me.
But if you are willing to do me a favor, I don't mind doing you a small favor."
The face of Nova Supreme changed slightly, and he hurriedly urged: "Ms. Lorelei, it is not appropriate to let everyone wait any longer now!"
"Okay, 260 trillion third..."
"270 trillion." Ronan raised his card in time, interrupting Lorelei, and then looked at Thanos with frustration, "I agree to your conditions."
"Very good."
Ronan did not ask what it was, and Thanos tacitly did not mention it, but just asked Ebony Maw to send all the funds on hand to Ronan.
"Two hundred and seventy trillion." Lorelai looked at Nova Supreme with a smile, "Is there no higher price? If not..."
"Three hundred trillion." Nova Supreme raised the auction board calmly, "As Ramon said, the limit of Xandar is two hundred and sixty trillion, but fortunately, Xandar has a good reputation in the universe, and many people who hope for peace are willing to lend a helping hand to Xandar."
"Damn it." Ronan slammed the table hard, "If anyone dares to help Xandar, I will destroy his planet when I turn around."
"Three hundred and twenty trillion."
"Three hundred and twenty-one trillion."
"Three hundred and twenty-two trillion."
......
Kree and Xandar were in a tug-of-war, and neither was willing to give in.
But the increase in price was getting smaller and smaller, and every time he raised the board, it was like lifting a heavy burden, which was extremely difficult.
"Three hundred and fifty trillion." Ronan shouted, and offered the highest price he could offer.
"Three hundred and fifty trillion and one hundred and fifty thousand." Nova Supreme seemed to have used up his last bit of strength. After he made his bid, the auction card in his hand fell to the ground unconsciously.
After Ronan got the Reality Stone, he would definitely continue to invade and recover the cost in a short time.
But she is not Ronan, and she will never use the Reality Stone to do such a thing.
On the contrary, Xandar will still take on the responsibility of protecting the Reality Stone, and at most use the power of the Reality Stone to develop Xandar's technology.
But if this happens, Xandar's finances will fall into a slump, and it will also owe a lot of debts, and it will not be able to recover in a short time.
But now that things have come to this, she has no other choice. As one of the few people who understands the destructive power of the Infinity Stone, she will never allow Ronan, who has a huge hatred for Xandar, to get it.
Bang! Bang! Bang!
Ronan swung the hammer in anger and smashed the floor and wall of the box to pieces.
"I don't accept it. I will never accept this ending.
Korras, how much can our spaceship be worth?"
"Master, you..."
"Three hundred and fifty trillion and one hundred and fifteen thousand for the first time..."
Lorelai's voice made Ronan's heart sink to the bottom of the valley, "Stop talking nonsense, speak quickly."
"It's really hard to determine. The warships of the Kree are good and bad, and it is very difficult to estimate the value.
And even if we can sell the spaceship, won't the Xandar star be worth it?"
"Three hundred and fifty trillion and one hundred and fifteen thousand for the second time..."
"I can't care so much."
"Three hundred and sixty trillion."
When Ronan was about to raise his hand, a woman's voice interrupted him.
Turning his head, he saw the collector's maid holding the auction sign, "My master, Tanlia Tiwan is willing to participate in the auction with three hundred and sixty trillion."
Hearing this, Ronan and Nova Supreme were relieved at the same time.
As long as the reality rough stone does not fall into Nova (Ronan)'s hands, the ending is not bad.
And both sides can save a sum of money, and there will be no financial problems.
Lorelai also showed a smile of "as expected", as if everything was under control.
"360 trillion for the first time, 360 trillion for the second time, and 360 trillion for the third time."
"Deal."
As the words fell, the auction hammer slammed heavily on the table.
"Congratulations to the collector from the void for winning the reality stone at a high price of 360 trillion."
The collector slowly stood up and then put a black card on the table, "This card has a quota of 360 trillion universe coins, which can be used on any planet.
Can you give me the reality stone? The infinite stone is still worth looking forward to."
The thought body nodded, then snapped his fingers, and a blood-red crystal appeared at his fingertips.
The collector was stunned for a moment, looking blankly at the cube flashing red light on the auction table, and then looking at the red crystal in the thought body's hand. It was clear at a glance which one was real and which one was fake.
"Hahaha! Interesting, very interesting.
Is that cube really fake?"
"I have to be prepared for some unexpected situations! If some powerful customer shamelessly goes to grab it, let him grab it. As long as the one used for trading is real, it will be fine."
"That makes sense." The collector nodded, "Then one hand pays the other hand."
"That's what I think."
