The Strongest Man in the Universe

Chapter 563

Alba deactivated the Hammer of Thunder and the stage returned to its former composure. Countless blue lightning also disappeared. The hammer lay there quietly.

Right now, Alba was feeling tired and limp. He only activated the hammer for a while, but he felt his energy drained. He's still too weak.

After calming down, he asked, "Are you all satisfied with the performance of the hammer?"

The people at the scene still had not recovered from his shock. No matter how strong the hammer was, the appearance just now was too conspicuous. Hammer of Thunder was definitely an item for great people.

“Nona Fellowes, start quote. I can't wait to wait." Archimedes' eyes warmed up and he said impatiently.

Alba looked at Archimedes. He felt a bit of despair in his heart. He knew this man was going to start again. He did not want the hammer to fall into the hands of Archimedes, but he had no choice. He cannot take anyone's right to bid in an auction unless they have a record of bidding but not paying. Will Archimedes do such a thing judging from his status?

Alba ignored Archimedes and continued, “Everything, you should know that I am just a Peak Ruler Ranker. If you want to make full use of this hammer, you should at least be at the Sovereign Rank. If a Sovereign Ranker were to use a hammer, it would definitely be stronger than you saw earlier."

When Archimedes saw Alba ignoring him, his unrelenting anger rose again. 'The 'B*tch Alba. He's just a chess piece left behind by his family. How dare he act recklessly in front of me?’

Although he was angry, he could not do anything to Alba. Not because Alba was a direct descendant, but because she was Anders' fiancee. The Palmore family was on the same level as the Ginger family, the family that supported the Lightfoot family. They were all among the top six powers in Star Kingdom.

Although Archimedes was the future head of the family, he could not afford to offend someone like Anders. Their difference is not just in status. The two sides were also far apart in terms of talent. Although Anders is older than Archimedes, their age difference is not too far away. However, his strength was already much higher.

“Nona Fellowes, start quote. You don't have to introduce him anymore. We've seen the power of the hammer. That must be a high quality Soulbound Weapon!”

“Ya, start the offer! I've waited so long and I've been waiting for something I like. I have to buy that hammer even if I'm broke!”

“Ju give up! You want to buy Hammer of Thunder with some of your coins? Stop dreaming! Don't you see that Mr Archimedes is still here? Who will win against him? I think we should stop wasting our efforts and let Mr. Archimedes have it.”

The guy who said this is kissing Archimedes' ass. At the same time, he blamed Treasure Trove for inviting this first-line heir. To be honest, he had misunderstood Treasure Trove. How will the Fellowes invite him?

They invited Splendor in charge in the West End. After all, they were in the same area, so this was respect. However, Archimedes was here by chance.

Valerio also has a headache. He could not drive out Archimedes, so he could only swallow his grievances.

"Yes! Mr Achirmedes is the oldest young master of Splendor, who in this place is richer than him? Because he's interested, so we don't have to bargain."

Alba didn't know how to answer those people. He believed Grandpa Val was watching this in the dark. Since he didn't show himself, it meant that he agreed with this. Therefore, Alba turned a deaf ear and began bidding.

“Everything, we will start the offer now. Hammer of Thunder Soulbound Weapon intermediate level. The base price is 50 billion Dollar Stars. The increase between the offers should not be less than 1 billion Dollar Stars."

After Alba said that, a voice said.

"500 billion!" That man was Archimedes.

Once he mentioned the price, he raised his base price tenfold, giving no one else a chance at all. At the same time, he showed his determination to obtain the hammer. After Archimedes said that, he stood up and turned around.

He said to everyone, “Halo, my name is Archimedes Lightfoot. I really like this hammer, so please consider my feelings and let me have it. I promise I only want this and I will not fight you all for anything else. What do you think?"

Splendor is worth taking into account. Archimedes was not a fool. He would still try his best not to spend a lot of money. The goal of an entrepreneur is to use the least cost to get the greatest profit.

After Archimedes said that, he turned around and sat down before anyone could say anything. He seemed to be asking everyone for permission, but it was a blatant threat. He just didn't say it out loud. Whoever dares to fight him to obtain the hammer will become his enemy.

On stage, Alba was furious as she looked at the extremely arrogant Archimedes. If he were to auction the Hammer of Thunder normally, it would definitely be worth over 500 billion. He looked at the corner. Valerio shook his head at him, hinting at him to close his eyes and continue the auction. Alba had no choice. He could only take two breaths to calm himself down.

Archimedes' words succeeded. Despite not liking his behavior, no one dared to stand up and disagree. After all, they knew who he was and none of them were capable of offending him.

Time passes slowly. Alba hoped someone would stand up and dampen the spirit of Archimedes. But after all this time, no one dared to say anything. Alba looked around, but she couldn't see David.

'Did David not like Hammer of Thunder?

Or did he think he didn't need to offend the Lightfoot family for the sake of a mid-level Soulbound Weapon?

Indeed, someone as strong as David would not seek trouble on purpose.'

“Nona Fellowes, since no one is bidding, then announce the winner now. I can't wait to try his powers. I believe I will have a great increase in my strength with Hammer of Thunder. Ha ha ha!” archimedes said with a chuckle.

“There is still time. Why are you so worried?” ask Alba blankly.

“Isn't it clear? Ask 'em! Which one of you dares to bid against me?"

Alba ignored Archimedes. He looked at the others and said, “Hammer of Thunder, intermediate-tier Soulbound Weapon, earning 500 billion Star Dollars. Does no one want to go higher? I'll count to three. If no one else bids, it will sell for 500 billion."

“Three!"

“Two!”

When Alba was about to say ‘one’, a voice said.

“600 billion!”

When Alba heard that voice, her eyes twinkled. He was very familiar with that voice. Indeed, the man never disappointed him. The one who mentioned the price, of course, was David.

He was too focused on the system just now, so he was unaware that the bidding for Hammer of Thunder had begun. This was the God of Thunder Hammer, one of the top three Ancient Weapons, so David had to obtain it. How could he let Archimedes take it from him?

He wouldn't care even if he had to expose himself and let Archimedes recognize him. If he gets the hammer, with a little more time, David can quickly become a Partial Saint. At that time, did he still have to fear Archimedes?

Of course, a Saint Partial was not invincible. After all, the Lightfoot family had some True Saint ancestors. He could only say he was not afraid of Archimedes and his patron Bernard, not the entire Lightfoot family. If he wants to achieve that, he still needs Alba's help.

This is gonna be interesting. After Archimedes had just asked Alba to announce the result because no one dared to bid again, someone mentioned 600 billion. That's 100 billion more than his offer. Isn't this a blatant slap on his face?

He even did it in front of so many people. How could Archimedes bear such a complaint?

He stood up with a dark face and turned to look at David. However, David was undercover, so Archimedes did not recognize him.

"700 billion!" Archimedes kept bidding.

He also raised it by 100 billion. As the other party grew by 100 billion, he could not lose. Which of the powers out there is richer than his family?

"800 billion!" David showed no weakness whatsoever.

"You..!" Archimedes spit through gritted teeth.

He finally recognized David. A sinister light shot out from his eyes, shooting straight at David. This boy was the one who humiliated him in the tavern! Now he meets her again here.

Combining his new and old grievances, Archimedes was so eager to tear David apart that he would never return.

“This is me.” David let go of his disguise.

Since Archimedes recognized him, he should have acknowledged it generously.

“How do you want to die, Son?” archimedes asked, a fire blazing in his chest.

“You must have the ability to kill me. I thought you were just a parasite. You ride people roughly because of your family. Would you stay that way if you didn't have your family? You're not even qualified to kiss my shoes!" David replied with disgust.

After he said that, everyone at the auction widened their eyes, their jaws also falling to the floor.

"Who is this kid?"

"He is so brave!"

"really savage. How dare he scold the first heir of the Lightfoot family? Was he not afraid of the vengeance of their families? Judging from the character of Archimedes, how would he forgive this child after experiencing such humiliation?"

When they see how fearless David is, they begin to wonder if this boy has a stronger background than Archimedes.

'Was his family even stronger than the Lightfoot family?

Otherwise, how could he show such a fearless expression after shouting at Archimedes?

Will the argument of the two direct descendants bring about a confrontation between the two great families?'

With the existence of The Saint Association, it had been a long time since the great battle had occurred in Star Kingdom. Many people were looking forward to a great battle.

Only Alba was not worried about what David was saying. This reaction was only suitable for a disciple who had the teacher of a Sacred Saint. If David is timid in front of someone like Archimedes, then Alba will begin to doubt his identity.

At this moment, Archimedes was furious. His eyes were red, and his anger would drown his rationality. He only had one thought in his head, and that was to kill that bastard. However, before Archimedes killed David, Archimedes wanted to torture David into regret for offending him.

“Uncle Bernard, catch him. I want to pull out his tendon and skin him alive. I want him to wish him dead ” Archimedes spit.

“Master, we're at the Treasure Trove auction, so it's inappropriate for us to do that. Let's wait until this is over.” advice Bernard.

He knew his master was feeling angry. However, they would offend the Fellowes family if they acted at the auction. Even if the Fellowes' families were in trouble, they would not forgive the two either.

'If the Fellowes' family decides to investigate this, this will directly influence Mr. Archi to take over the position of head of the family.'

To put it simply, Archimedes acted in blind rage, but frankly, he paid no attention to the general situation and could not see the bigger picture. The Lightfoot seniors will not be happy about this.

“I said, catch him! Didn't you hear me?" Archimedes. He was blinded by anger.

"Personation with this auction and Hammer of Thunder. It doesn't matter anymore.”

Right now, Archimedes just wants the child in front of him to know what it's like to suffer a fate worse than death.

“But Mr. Archi..”

“Nothing but, Uncle Bernard. You've been with me for years and you know how I am. I don't want to repeat my own words.”

“Master, I'm your protector. Not only do I have to protect your safety, but I also have to teach you. If you take action today, even if you catch the child and vent anger in your heart, then why? Have you thought about the consequences? The seniors will be disappointed in you when the Fellowes question the matter. They will wonder how someone who cannot see the bigger picture can become the head of the family. Will he lead the family into decline? If you think you can accept this consequence, then I'll catch it now." When Bernard said this, he blocked his surroundings. Outsiders could not hear what he was saying.

Archimedes was on the verge of an explosion, but he regained consciousness after Bernard said this. Profits would not cover losses if he lost senior confidence in him due to temporary satisfaction as Bernard had said. Archimedes' main goal was not to be the head of the family.

He had bigger and wild dreams. However, he must become the head of the family and master the family resources to do what he wants to do next.

“Sssp.... Huff...” Archimedes takes a deep breath before exhaling it.

“Thank you, Uncle Bernard. I was just blinded by anger. If you are not here, I may not be able to turn back the time if I take action today.”

“Good if you understand. You should consider any general situation that occurs. I'll keep an eye on the boy. We can act after auction.”

Bernard breathed a sigh of relief. He feared Archimedes would insist on taking action because he could not forget it. In the end, if the family decided to investigate this, as the patron of Archimedes, Bernard would suffer too if he did not stop Archimedes but instead helped him.

“I understand, Uncle Bernard.”
