On the second day of the auction, Qu Jianlei and Nutrient Solution came early in the morning and continued to visit the peripheral markets.
There are still a lot of good things, but the one that makes Qu Jianlei's heart beat is Buduo. I don't know if I got lucky in advance.
The regrets are not too small, but they are within the tolerance range - I can't bear it even if I don't want to, because I really don't have much money left.
In the evening, seeing fewer and fewer people in the auction house, Nutrient Solution suggested leaving.
He believes that those who brought treasures should have given away the good things in the early stage Buduo.
"These people first sell their temporarily useless things before they can collect enough money to bid in the Main Auction House auction."
Qu Jianlei thinks what he said makes sense, "It seems like you can just walk around the peripheral auction house from now on."
Nutrient Solution couldn't forget Instant Flash's technique in the early morning, "Find a place to practice again after dinner?"
Qu Jianlei shook his head, "That's not necessary. There are so many people out there now, and there will be plenty of time when the auction ends."
Yesterday, he was a little itchy and tested Instant Flash. Now that he has basically mastered it, he feels that it is not appropriate to cause trouble again.
Nutrient Solution shook his head slightly, looking somewhat regretful.
The two returned to the small courtyard. Keros was cooking in the house. This guy's cooking skills didn't look bad.
Korona's injuries have also improved a lot. She is a thin girl about 1.5 meters tall with a delicate appearance.
She was still covered in bandages, but she didn't look too bad. When she saw the two of them coming back, she actually stood up to say hello.
Qu Jianlei When he saw the two of them, he thought of yesterday's main auction.
The selling price of Single Horn Bronze Man, as well as the Divine Script above, if you buy Main Auction House, it should be relatively easy to sell 2 billion.
If you are lucky enough, it is possible to sell it for six to seven billion, but the bronze man is not a magic weapon, and the upper limit is limited.
Korona seems a bit introverted and not particularly talkative - mainly because Qu Jianlei has a strong aura.
Keros is a little better. If you have anything to do, please talk to Nutrient Solution.
He knew that this thin man could command the Supreme, but after all, it was still Rank A, which was easier to get in touch with than the Supreme, right?
Nutrient Solution responded indifferently. He was not cold-hearted, but the status gap was there.
Keros didn't care. In addition to asking about the auction house, he also wanted to know when the two of them could leave.
Nutrient Solution said simply, "You designate a place and I can send you two there at any time to ensure your safety when you land."
Keros hesitated and asked, "No one will be following you, right?"
Nutrient Solution rolled his eyes at him when he heard this, "It's just your little money... as for it?"
He didn't think so, but Keros felt uneasy. Two billion was really the most astronomical figure he had ever been exposed to.
The two people in front of them took out the money without hesitation, which is indeed trustworthy. "Can we leave with you?"
"This is really..." Nutrient Solution felt a little inconvenient, but finally said it.
"Okay, actually what you sold us, including helping you intercept the Supreme... the price is not cheap."
Keros Then I understood why the other party had this attitude.
At the time of the auction, I might have been satisfied with the price, but the problem was that there was still a high cost.
While the two were talking, Qu Jianlei stood up suddenly, flashed his body, grabbed Korona and shot away, "Run!"
Nutrient Solution's reaction was not slow either. He was just stunned for a moment, grabbed Keros and rushed outside.
The next moment, a medium-sized cargo starship pierced the night sky and crashed heavily into the ground.
With a loud noise, the starship Fire Explosion came and ignited a raging fire.
The place where the starship hit the ground was less than a hundred meters away from the small yard where they were, which was someone else's yard.
Fire Explosion directly destroyed the small courtyard, and the air wave collapsed most of the walls of the surrounding courtyards.
Qu Jianlei and Nutrient Solution both used Instant Flash. Even if they were carrying one person each, they had already jumped two kilometers away.
Keros originally wanted to resist, but was stunned when he saw this, "Is this... man-made?"
Nutrient Solution blinked twice before speaking in a deep voice, "It's artificial, isn't it a bit too much?"
The expression on Qu Jianlei's face was also a bit strange, "But the starship crashed... is it such a coincidence?"
Nutrient Solution took out Wristwatch, "I'll ask, but let's find a safe place first."
They rushed out in desperation and did not consider anything else. They were worried about the power of Fire Explosion and mainly wanted to run as far away as possible.
The place they were in now was also in a residential area, and there were people around them looking at the four of them in shock.
Especially Korona, who is covered in bandages, is really a bit dazzling under the illumination of the street lights.
"Let's go, let's go," Qu Jianlei carried Korona and continued to flash, Nutrient Solution let go of Keros, "Follow!"
The four of them turned a few corners and disappeared into the night.
When they came to a small forest, Nutrient Solution started to contact, and Qu Jianlei released his senses to see how the small courtyard was doing.
The next moment, there was another loud noise, but it was unknown what was in the starship, Fire Explosion again.
This time Fire Explosion was even more powerful, and many surrounding houses collapsed.
Qu Jianlei They were nearly three kilometers away from the explosion point, but they could still catch the strong vibrations on the ground and the air waves that hit their faces.
"At least a dozen people have died," Qu Jianlei muttered softly, not sure if it was a simple accident.
At Buduo, an official starship rushed to the scene and blocked the surrounding area, and City Garrison came to the rescue.
Nutrient Solution also had an off-road vehicle sent over. After the four people got on the vehicle, they quickly left.
Not long after, news reached his Wristwatch.
According to official announcements, the power system of the cargo starship was aging and parts fell off, causing the accident.
Qu Jianlei snorted, "Can you find out the detailed reasons so quickly? I don't think it's credible."
He himself is good at maintenance and has a lot of say in this aspect.
Nutrient Solution also believed in his judgment and sighed softly, "But I think there is no need to deal with us like this, right?"
The impact of a medium-sized starship Fire Explosion is still very large, and the damage caused cannot be underestimated.
Qu Jianlei agrees with his point of view, "The key is that this method is useless to us... What are you trying to do?"
Even if they didn't learn Instant Flash, they still had enough time to escape when the starship fell from the sky.
Judging from the known consequences, if they had not caught Keros brother and sister and escaped, the brother could have basically run away with his sister.
Those who cannot escape in the surrounding yards are ordinary people or low-level Awakened One who are less alert.
If the purpose of this starship was the four of them, there was something fundamentally wrong with the planned operation.
"I'll go find out more," Nutrient Solution stopped the car and disappeared into the dark night.
This place is more than thirty kilometers away from the Fire Explosion location, so it should be relatively safe.
Qu Jianlei also got out of the car, alertly sensing his surroundings.
Although the off-road vehicle is comfortable, the space is too cramped, making it difficult to respond in time if something happens.
The next moment, Big Head Butterfly started spinning, "Three crew members of the starship ejected in an emergency, and one person was slightly injured."
Qu Jianlei asked silently, "What's the cause of the failure?"
Big Head Butterfly turned around again, "The three people claimed before ejection... that the power system suddenly overran and was difficult to control."
"What about the ghost?" Qu Jianlei smiled disdainfully, "Have all the brake protection failed?"
Xiao Hu is also aware of these situations, "What is certain at present is that it is indeed an emergency."
Qu Jianlei was speechless upon hearing this - I wouldn't go so far as to recruit someone into trouble, would I?
With the empire's technological level, the probability of a vehicle accident is not high.
In the atmosphere, the probability of something happening to a starship is lower than that of an aircraft, and even lower than that of a ground vehicle.
Now the starship has crashed and actually destroyed the house. This is not much higher than the probability of being hit by a meteorite, right?
At midnight, Nutrient Solution finally got the latest news.
The fault was indeed caused by man-made damage to the power system and protective devices.
The crashed starship had been blackmailed before, requiring the other party to pay 200 million Unregistered Silver Note, otherwise the starship would be destroyed.
The current problem is that more than one starship has been blackmailed, and two have crashed.
When the news came out, the planet's government issued an emergency order prohibiting all starships from taking off.
Fortunately, the order was issued in time. It was dark at the same time, and there were not many starships taking off.
Then after inspection, it was discovered that more than ten starships had been damaged.
The means of destruction are the same, by scanning the outside with specific rays to destroy the power system and protection system.
The saboteurs not only used high-tech weapons, but also operated at a very high level, and no traces of damage could be seen from the outside.
The destroyed starships were located in different areas. It can be determined that it was an organized gang behavior.
And these damaged starships have all been blackmailed without exception.
There is also news that although more starships have received blackmail messages, their hulls have not been damaged.
However, the blackmailers' actions were also rampant. Knowing that the government was investigating, they sent out new blackmail messages.
They claimed that the matter would not end like this, and that if the fee was not paid, they would resort to more bloody methods.
Nutrient Solution's expression was a little weird when he stated the news.
——The government believes that the purpose of this gang may be related to the ongoing auction.
At the auction, most people used Unregistered Silver Note, which is what the blackmailers wanted.
And there is a huge appetite to blackmail so many starships at once - it would be impossible without the Supreme Being involved.
So now the government is considering whether to negotiate with the organizers and take some action.
Terminate the auction? This is unrealistic... Not to mention the hundreds of supreme leaders who rushed over, Above Supreme, don't you want to lose face?
However, the government believes that if the auction had not attracted so many supreme officials, they would not have been able to conduct a detailed investigation and the matter would not have developed to this point.
