Abyss Summoner

"Gordon’s condition is very abnormal." Chen Feng frowned, feeling increasingly uneasy.

You stand on the bridge gazing at the scenery, and the people upstairs are looking at you.

This saying fits Gordon’s current situation well. It seems he’s only a step away from victory, and the council member has already begun celebrating in advance. In a minute, his body experienced some unusual tremors, which lasted for more than ten seconds before gradually subsiding.

Legendary figures possess terrifying control, and under normal circumstances, such a state is impossible.

This is very abnormal!

Chen Feng was not foolish enough to focus all his attention on the adversary. Gordon is a century-old monster, and prolonged staring is enough for the other party to detect something is amiss.

Therefore, Chen Feng’s observation always lingered around ten seconds. Once time was up, he would shift his focus and look at something else.

Yet even so, within countless ten-second observations, he still discovered some peculiarities about Gordon.

The other party seemed to be deliberately suppressing something. During the tremors, his face appeared to show signs of unbearable pain. His hands deformed to some extent, and as for his neck, veins bulged tightly, like vines, looking terrifyingly frightening!

This appeared to be on the verge of some kind of loss of control.

Upon seeing this, Chen Feng no longer looked at Gordon. He had found his answer, and any further observation might expose his own slip.

"Prepare a crack in advance, and when necessary, return to the Order as fast as possible!" Chen Feng was ready to flee!

Compared to so-called benefits, life is the most important. Chen Feng was not yet mad enough to choose money over life.

Beautiful times always pass quickly.

Just as the auction had been going on for an hour, and most had gained quite a harvest, the stage quietened down once more. The auctioneer and the etiquette ladies all headed backstage. Soon, a sinister-faced Abyssal dwarf pushed a vehicle covered with a red cloth into view.

Dwarves are popular as craftsmen, alchemists, and inventors. Despite their skills being well recognized, most prefer living with their kind in cozy caves under animal-rich hills.

They enjoy animals, beautiful gems, and various jokes. They have a sense of humor, love puns, jokes, games, and even pranks—the more elaborate, the better. Fortunately, their dedication to craftsmanship equaled their love for pranks.

It is well known that dwarves have exceptional relationships with gnomes, much like a pair inseparable in existence. Many perceive dwarves as children with adult faces, full of curiosity and passion for everything.

But not this dwarf.

From the moment it appeared, it wore a sinister expression, seeming to greatly disdain the guests present.

This was a very difficult thing to comprehend.

No one ever conducts business this way, but no one voiced objections, given that this individual was a part of the council, the master craftsman Karo, who had forged numerous pieces of alchemical equipment over the years.

However, it had mostly stopped crafting equipment.

At least five years ago, it had refused to craft more equipment for guests and its temper worsened with each passing day. A notorious event in Dengshi City was when its nine-year-old son accidentally entered its room, and it directly executed its own flesh and blood.

This incident caused a massive stir at the time, with speculation that Karo had suffered brain damage while advancing to a higher realm. No one expected it would later appear before everyone in such a state after some recuperation.

Some looked on with dread, as a madman capable of killing their own blood could provoke fear.

However, that fear was soon overshadowed by attention to the red-covered object, causing breaths around to become somewhat tense. The auction was nearing its end, and without a doubt, this was the highlight of the event, a treasure that had drawn most legendary figures in.

Sub-divine Artifact!

This was a treasure enough to incite a battle!

The atmosphere became noticeably more lively, even the silent legendary figures showed strong interest.

"Quiet!"

"Everyone, quiet!"

Karo yelled angrily, using a cold voice to express its dissatisfaction and annoyance.

This dwarf’s behavior was excessively outrageous. Even in Dengshi City, despite being a council member, the audience was composed of long-renowned figures; they could tolerate it once, but wouldn’t indulge repeated insults!

This led to increasing tension among them.

Some Demons’ patience was evidently exhausted, staring fiercely at Karo, as if they might tear it apart in the next second!

A sinister atmosphere began to spread.

If Karo couldn’t provide a reasonable explanation, this group of legendary figures might go berserk the next second, which would be catastrophic for Dengshi City!

Under such pressure, Karo still did not choose to yield, its eyes bloodshot and maliciously staring at those powerful beings, fearless and full of madness.

"Wait a moment..." At this time, Gordon approached, placing his broad hand on Karo’s shoulder, gently pushing it aside.

Compared to Karo, Gordon seemed more like a proper businessman. His face was full of a hypocritical smile, a quintessential merchant’s expression.

Gordon calmed the almost mad Karo and warmly said to the crowd: "I think you all understand what happened to Karo, so I hope you can sympathize with a mentally stressed... poor soul. He hasn’t seen so many friends in a long time and might be a bit excited. So, let’s forget about this unpleasant matter and proceed to the last step."

"The Sub-divine Artifact auction ceremony starts now."

Gordon did not offer much explanation, instead opting for the most direct method to divert the crowd’s resentment towards Karo.

Auctioning the Sub-divine Artifact!

The crowd did not speak, only snorted coldly to express their dissatisfaction. Compared to targeting Karo, the Sub-divine Artifact was undoubtedly the most important thing now.

Under the watchful eyes, the smile on Gordon’s face grew even brighter, like a blooming Cannibal Flower. At the same time, he grasped the corner of the red cloth and lifted it high. In the next second, the much-anticipated "Sub-divine Artifact" was unveiled before everyone’s eyes!
