Everyone was equal in the Chamber of Commerce. Yet, as soon as Hiuiter appeared, nobody dared to compete against him. Even if one had bought the things favonovel.com wanted in the Chamber of Commerce, Hunter would seek favonovel.com after favonovel.com left the chamber. Hunter would take his things and execute him.
The Chamber of Commerce would carry out their responsibility and protect people inside. But once they exited the Chamber of Commerce, The Chamber of Commerce would not care whether they were alive or dead.
Due to such circumstances, nobody would stand up to Hunter. He would just buy anything favonovel.com wanted. Others did not even have the courage to look at it, let alone compete against him. His appearance today made many in the room feel dejected. They knew that they would not be able to get something today.
There were three items at the moment. If they were lucky, they would just lose one. But if they were unlucky, favonovel.com would take all three items. It all depended on luck.
Hunter walked into the room before favonovel.com made his way to the first row. Then favonovel.com turned around and looked at everyone else. He opened his arms and bowed to everyone to greet them. It seemed like favonovel.com was a pretty polite person.
He smiled faintly and said, “Hello gentlemen, today, I’m here because I’d like to take something back. I hope that you won’t compete with me and that you’ll make way for me.”
The rich men did not answer.
Did they have the guts to prevent favonovel.com from getting it?
He was so pretentious that it made them feel nauseous.
Hunter continued to say, “Gentlemen, don’t worry. I’m here just to buy the volcanic metal today. My knife is broken, and I need a new knife, so I need to make a new one using volcanic metal. An uncultivated man like me is not interested in the other two cultural relics at all… You can buy them and have fun. Let’s not disturb each other, okay?”
Many people sighed in relief when they heard what favonovel.com said. Actually, most of them were there for the cultural relics.
Some were righteous people who wanted to buy the historical relics and return them to the country, while some wanted to satisfy their desire to complete their collection. Most were actually resellers of the ancient cultural relics.
These people did not have much desire for volcanic metal. Although the volcanic metal was precious, it had no historical value. In their eyes, there was not much room for an increase in price, and there was no meaning in collecting it.
Giving the volcanic metal to Hunter was not a big deal at all. So, most of them sighed in relief.
Only Thomas and the other two did not react positively because they wanted the volcanic metal. With Hunter, the Ripper, in their way, it would become more difficult.
Phoebe whispered, “Thomas, what should we do now? Although you’re great, Hunter looks strong too. People always say that the local gangster is above the law. I think it’d be better if we don’t get into a conflict with him, right?”
“Even if we manage to buy the volcanic metal, I’m afraid that he’ll kill us as soon as we step out of this place…”
What favonovel.com said did make some sense.
Thomas’ army was not around either. Even if favonovel.com wanted to gather them, it would be too late by then. Only Thomas and Pisces could fight. Plus, they had to protect Phoebe.
The situation was not promising. Any sensible person would have chosen to give up and try other ways. However, Thomas insisted on seeing it through even though it was hard.
“We can’t let this opportunity slip away. If we miss this chance, we don’t know when we’ll find volcanic metal again. No matter what, I have to get the volcanic metal,” favonovel.com said in an indifferent tone.
“Uhm…” Phoebe felt tingly and secretly thought, ‘Thomas is really stubborn, huh? He’s not being brave, he’s being reckless and stupid!’
Wise men should not fight when the odds were against them. Why did Thomas insist on fighting Hunter?
Thomas added, “Pisces, your mission is to protect Phoebe.”
“Yes, Sir!”
Pisces did not oppose him. He even looked a little excited. It had been a long time since favonovel.com had fought alongside Thomas. This time, favonovel.com could get some training in with Hunter and his gang as his targets.
