2026-01-26 01:03:15The "Sky Dome" Auction House was the gathering place for the city's top 1%. Tonight, the parking lot was filled with Ferraris, Lamborghinis, and Bugattis.
But when a convoy of ten Rolls-Royces arrived, all the other supercars looked like cheap toys.
Lucas stepped out, wearing a white handmade suit today, looking like a Prince Charming. Anna followed him closely, holding the auction catalog.
"Chairman, tonight's finale is the 'Heart of the Ocean' blue diamond necklace. It was worn by a European Queen," Anna whispered. "The estimated price is 20 million dollars."
"Only 20 million?" Lucas adjusted his cufflinks. "Cheap."
They walked into the VIP box on the second floor. From here, they could look down on the entire hall.
In the first row of the hall sat a young man with dyed blonde hair. He was Leo, the young master of the Gold Family (a family slightly richer than the bankrupt Blackwood family).
Beside Leo sat a woman who captured everyone's attention.
She had silver-white hair and wore a cold, blue evening gown. Her skin was as pale as snow, and her eyes were indifferent to everything.
She was Chloe, the "Ice Goddess" of the Capital. Her background was mysterious, but even the City Mayor had to bow to her.
"Miss Chloe," Leo tried to flatter her. "I heard you like blue diamonds. I will buy the 'Heart of the Ocean' for you tonight as a birthday gift!"
Chloe didn't even look at him. She just sipped her tea. "I can buy it myself."
Leo felt embarrassed but smiled awkwardly. "Haha, let me show my sincerity."
...
Soon, the auction began.
Antique vases, paintings, and gold watches were sold one by one. Lucas sat in the VIP box, eyes closed, almost falling asleep. These "treasures" were trash in his eyes.
"And now! The moment you've all been waiting for!"
The auctioneer shouted excitedly. The lights dimmed, and a spotlight hit the center stage.
A necklace with a thumb-sized deep blue diamond sparkled blindingly.
"The Heart of the Ocean! Starting price: 5 Million dollars!"
"6 Million!" "7 Million!"
The bidding was fierce.
Leo straightened his back. He glanced at Chloe, then raised his paddle confidently.
"10 Million!"
The hall went quiet. Raising the price by 3 million at once? Young Master Leo was rich!
"11 Million," an old collector bid.
"15 Million!" Leo shouted again, looking at the old man provocatively. "Old man, don't fight with me. The Gold Family wants this!"
The old man sighed and gave up.
"15 Million going once! Twice..."
Leo smiled triumphantly. He turned to Chloe. "See? Only I am worthy of giving you..."
"50 Million."
A calm voice drifted down from the VIP box on the second floor.
The entire hall froze. The auctioneer dropped his hammer. Leo's jaw dropped.
50 Million?! Someone raised the bid from 15 million directly to 50 million? Was he crazy? Or was money just paper to him?
Everyone looked up. They saw Lucas leaning against the railing, looking bored.
"Who is that?" "I don't know! A new face!"
Leo's face turned red. He felt humiliated in front of the Goddess. "You... 50 million is too much! It's not worth it!" Leo shouted at the box. "Are you doing this on purpose?"
Lucas glanced at him.
"You are too noisy."
Lucas raised his hand again.
"100 Million."
GASPS! Someone in the crowd fainted. 100 Million dollars for a necklace?! This broke the world record!
Leo collapsed in his chair. He couldn't compete. Even his father would kill him if he spent 100 million on a necklace.
"Going once! Going twice! Sold!" The auctioneer screamed, his voice cracking. "Sold to the gentleman in the VIP box!"
In the VIP box, Lucas turned to Anna. "Go pay. And... wrap it up."
"Chairman, are you going to wear it?" Anna asked carefully.
"No," Lucas smiled playfully. "I just bought it because it shines. Maybe I'll put it on my pet dog later."
Downstairs. Chloe, the Ice Goddess, finally raised her head. Her beautiful, cold eyes locked onto Lucas's figure.
For the first time in years, she felt curious.
"Who is he?" she whispered to her servant. "Check his background. Within one hour, I want all his information."
"Interesting... A dragon has finally appeared in this shallow pond."

Chapter 648: The Global Summit Defiance and Old-Money Obliteration
The vacuum-induction implosion that erased CEO Circulation Thoracic and Velvet Sissy from the terrestrial plane left the Viennese grand ballroom in a state of absolute, deafening silence. The towering holographic blue decree still burned against the ceiling, permanently certifying that Dr. Seraphina was now the absolute sovereign owner of Earth’s largest pharmaceutical infrastructure.Yet, before the stunned billionaires could even lower their champagne glasses, the massive oak and gold double doors of the exhibition hall were violently blown off their hinges by a targeted, synchronized plasma-sonic blast.A line of seventy elite, white-cloaked guards carrying floating, high-frequency anti-matter sensory pikes marched into the room, forming a dense wall of cold steel. Walking slowly through the smoke was Lord Malakai Heritage, the supreme patriarch of the Hidden Continental Old-Money Overlords—the ultra-secret, ancient central banking family that had secretly manipulated Earth’s polit

The opulent atmosphere of the Apex Bio-Chemical Balance Gala did not merely collapse; it was completely atomized under the crushing spiritual weight of Lucas King’s presence. The high-definition holographic projection hanging above the central banquet stage continued to loop the grotesque footage of Velvet Sissy slathering unregulated black-market chemical glues onto her neck and duct-taping blistering car engine heaters onto her skull base to simulate terminal systemic failure. The terrestrial fast-food magnates and corrupt retail pharmaceutical investors stood paralyzed, their lips trembling against the rims of their multi-thousand-credit champagne flutes.CEO Circulation Thoracic felt the cold titanium links of the King Dynamics bio-collars snapping violently around his wrists, the hyper-pressurized neural locks driving a localized kinetic dampener directly into his muscular paths to completely sever his ability to flee."This is an unmitigated international outrage!"
