Turning Custer Island upside down
At this moment, the atmosphere on the island is like the calm before a storm, calm on the surface but turbulent undercurrents inside.
The auction venue in the front hall is the only area on the entire island that is destroyed on all sides.
Under the huge dome, the crystal chandelier casts brilliant light, illuminating every corner in detail.
Below the stage, the wealthy and powerful from various planets sat in soft chairs, greed and desire surging in their eyes as they stared intently at every treasure on the stage.
The auctioneer stood at the side of the stage, rhythmically striking the auction hammer in his hand. The sky-high prices he quoted often triggered competition from the audience, and the repeated bidding sounds merged into a noisy and lively symphony.
However, the rest of the island had already fallen into chaos.
In the dim corridor, the lights flickered and seemed like they would go out at any time.
All kinds of strange devices flashed eerie lights, alarms wailed everywhere, and the air was filled with a pungent smell, making people feel uneasy.
The excitement at the auction house did not last long.
Suddenly, a low and shocking roar exploded from the darkness, and then a huge brown bear rushed out from the darkness like a cannonball.
It was more than two people tall, with hair all over its body standing up like steel needles, glowing brown in the light and shadow; its eyes were like burning fireballs, emitting anger and savagery, and every step it took made the ground tremble slightly.
At the same time, in a dark corner of Custer Island, Knox finally found the male who had humiliated him.
His eyes were as cold as ice, and his hatred seemed to be able to freeze the air around him. As he approached step by step, his powerful aura made the other party tremble uncontrollably.
"Untie this collar!"
Knox's voice was low and menacing, as if squeezed out from between his teeth.
The male's hands were shaking like sieves under the oppression, and he finally touched the collar unlocking button with great difficulty.
With a light "click", the collar fell to the ground, and Knox's body instantly turned into countless slender tentacles, disappearing into the dark corridor in an instant, leaving only the male lying on the ground gasping for breath.
Innox's animal form has a strong ability to change color and hide, just like a chameleon in nature, and can perfectly blend into the environment.
Wherever he passed, it was like a breeze blowing by, leaving no trace. Everyone present had no idea where he was hiding or where he was running to.
On this island full of dangers, as long as the SSS-level Achill is not present, these seemingly well-trained guards are as fragile as ants in front of the SS-level Knox.
As soon as Knox disappeared, the brown bear seemed to have received a signal and started roaring and running around in the passages.
Its roar was deafening, and every roar made the earth tremble.
Edmund knew that he had to create a bigger noise to provide cover for Knox's actions.
Moreover, he had learned from clues that the old-school noble of the Main Star Empire was actually one of the city lords of Caster Island, and the man who had captured him and tried to forcibly wash off the mark on him was Dorothy's father!
Thinking of this, determination and anger flashed in Edmund's eyes.
Knox has gone searching for evidence to expose the crimes of these people, and now he is about to turn this seemingly impregnable auction house upside down!
As expected, Edmund acted swiftly and decisively.
His power erupted like a surging tide, and the auction house instantly fell into chaos.
The huge crystal chandelier that was originally hanging high was shaking as the ground shook like an earthquake. The crystals collided and made a crisp and harsh sound, which was even more terrifying in the chaos.
The giant bear roared and rushed into the crowd amid screams. Its huge body was like a moving hill. People were terrified and avoided it wherever it went. Screams, shouts and the sound of objects falling to the ground mixed together, and the scene was a mess.
Then, the brown bear suddenly leaped up, and its huge body drew an arc and pounced accurately on the high auction platform.
The host on the stage, who had been eloquent at first, was now so frightened that his face turned pale, his legs went weak and he almost collapsed. He still held the auction hammer tightly in his hand, but he was at a loss as if he was holding a hot potato.
The females locked in collars were even more terrified, their eyes filled with fear and despair, and their bodies trembled uncontrollably.
How could they have imagined that such a chaotic thing would happen on the heavily guarded and supposedly impregnable Caster Island? What was even more shocking was that someone actually dared to run wild here and mess up the most important auction house.
In an instant, the auction hall was flooded with chaotic screams.
When the guests in the VIP room upstairs heard the noise downstairs, they all stood up in fear, their eyes full of panic. They hurriedly called for guards to protect themselves, fearing that they would be hit by the suddenly mad brown bear.
After receiving the order, the guards quickly rushed into the auction hall, but there were too many guests inside and the scene was chaotic.
The crowd ran and pushed each other everywhere. Even if the guards wanted to suppress them violently, they found it difficult to do so due to the complexity of the situation. The weapons in their hands were useless in the chaos and they could only watch the chaos worsen.
In the main control office at the center of Caster Island, a group of people were in a state of panic.
The atmosphere in the room was suffocatingly oppressive, and the dim lights seemed to mourn the chaos.
A middle-aged man with gray hair had an angry face and pointed a trembling finger at the Dorothy family. His voice was hoarse with anger:
"This is all your fault! I told you before, that brown bear is incredibly powerful. Not only does he possess S-class mental power, he's also a core member of the Imperial Marines. Instead of trying to get rid of him, why not try to recruit him for your own use?
But you guys, you had to capture him and wash your mark just to vent your anger! What was injected into his veins was a special inhibitor, not that damn tranquilizer. He has been ours for a long time, how could he run to the auction house and do such a thing! "
You know, throughout the galaxy, S-level males are already powerful and rare.
Earlier, the Galactic Pirates only had one S-level leader, which made it leap to become the largest pirate organization in the entire galaxy, which shows its influence.
Although Caster Island has been dormant in the black market for many years, accumulated astonishing wealth and has a large number of subordinates, its strength still has room for significant improvement.
They have long tried to control the Guards with females, wealth and inhibitors, and have spent huge sums of money to purchase a large number of humanoid mechas and advanced defense systems.
But after so many years, he still hasn't had an S-level guard.
Originally, Edmund was an excellent candidate, and according to the plan he was likely to become a capable person, but now all the plans have been completely disrupted.
In fact, there are eight city lords behind Caster Island. They come from different forces and have different interests, so differences of opinion are inevitable.
The person being accused at this moment is Dorothy's father, Luke, the head of her family.
He was in a very bad mood at the moment, his face was gloomy and his eyes were full of anger and unwillingness.
He never expected that Archer, who was addicted to inhibitors and usually obeyed them, would betray them at the critical moment.
He sneered, his smile was full of mockery and helplessness:
"Enough! You want a strong one, but isn't SSS-level 1107 strong enough? And what happened? He still betrayed us. You should reflect on whether the inhibitors from the research institute have lost their effectiveness and have no effect on him at all."
"impossible!"
The person who had spoken just now retorted harshly with his eyes wide open, his body trembling slightly, his face full of shock and anger, as if he had been greatly insulted.
His face turned pale and blue, and he slammed the table. There was a loud "bang" and everything on the table shook.
