The Strongest Man in the Universe

Chapter 564

After David shouted at Archimedes, the people at the auction eagerly waited for Archimedes' reaction. Based on their understanding, as the first heir and future head of the family, how could Archimedes bear being shouted at in front of so many people?

He would definitely fight back with all he could and make the person shouting at him bear the consequences. He might even take action in this auction. Once they start fighting, it will be very interesting. However, they were at the Treasure Trove headquarters, so the staff would definitely stop them.

Honestly, Valerio is ready. If Archimedes could not control himself and wanted to attack, as the host of the auction, Treasure Trove would not let this continue. If someone started fighting during the auction and injured another guest, the reputation of the Treasure Trove would be damaged if word got out.

Treasure Trove was going through an important period right now and his reputation was not as good as before, so they could not deal with such a situation.

David had thought about it clearly before he decided to shout at Archimedes. First, they were at the Treasure Trove auction, so Treasure Trove would not allow Archimedes to do anything.

Of course, even though he did, David would not be afraid of him. Second, he wanted to trigger Archimedes to have him raise prices aggressively. That way, David can get more luxury points.

David did not touch the God of Thunder, so even though the system detected the hammer's true identity and learned that it was one of the top three Ancient Weapons, it did not judge the price. Before this, no matter if it was Nine-Star Iron, Life Stone, or Beautiful Grapes of Hundreds Flowers and Fruits, the system would correctly identify it and judge it after David touched it.

This time, the system detected the God of Thunder Hammer from a distance, but forgot the most important thing, the price assessment. David was depressed. He wanted to touch the hammer for the system to judge him.

Since it was one of the top three Ancient Weapons, the luxurious points he got from this might be enough to help him enter directly into the Saint Realm. However, he would not be allowed to touch her now. He can't walk on stage for no reason, right?

Besides, something like this has never happened in the past. The host would not let the guests participating in the auction examine the treasure themselves. If not, everyone will do it too. If that happened, how would they continue with the auction?

However, even if David knew the price of the hammer, it would be useless. Even if the God of Thunder was worth a hundred trillion Star Dollars, he still needed someone to raise the price that high for him.

Even a fool would know there was something with the God of Thunder if David raised the price from several hundred billion to a hundred trillion directly. Treasure Trove might not even let go. If that happens, David will get nothing.

Since he did not know the true price of the hammer, David thought he should make Archimedes angry and force him to bid against himself. This would be a good way to spend more money. It would be even better if the price of goods became higher. Therefore, from the looks of it now, Archimedes' anger would give him the greatest advantage.

Under everyone's gaze, Archimedes finally spoke. He was not as angry as everyone expected.

He asked calmly, "What's your name?"

"I am me. Archimedes, listen carefully, my name is David Lidell, and remember, this will be a name that will make you feel fear and despair" David said haughtily and arrogantly. He looked exactly like a hedonist from a great power.

“David Lidel? All righty! I'll remember you. However, it is too early to say who will make who feel fear and despair.” Archimedes held the anger in his heart and snapped.

If he is not worried about disappointing his seniors and influencing his plans to inherit the family, Archimedes will ask Bernard to kill David and make him experience what it would be like to suffer a fate worse than death.

"Oh? Archimedes, how long has it been since we last met. Have you forgotten what happened at the store? I don't think I punished you enough. If I knew this was going to happen, I would cripple you so you wouldn't make much of a fuss here and disturb me" David said, looking a little disappointed.

When he said that, everyone on the scene was shocked. Countless voices were heard.

“Damn it, who is this kid? How could he be so savage? He even said he wanted to cripple the first heir of the Lightfoot family. Was he not worried about the Lightfoot family retaliation?”

“How arrogant! I think Mr. Archimedes is the noblest of us. I did not expect that there would be someone unperturbed by him hiding in the darkness. It really broadens my horizons. My trip to the auction was not in vain because I could see this!”

“Didn't you hear what he said? He said he regretted not disabling Mr. Archimedes, so that meant it wasn't the first time they'd ever met each other. Moreover, Mr. Archimedes suffered a huge blow the last time they met. Absolutely savage! Mr Archimedes will finally suffer today!”

"Since he can force Mr. Archimedes to this stage, I can only say four words, he's a crazy kid!"

“My friend, accept my admiration. I admire you so much!”

“Do you think you can call him that? He's a savage who isn't even afraid of the Lightfoot family. You can't claim a higher class connection with it.”

Everyone was talking amongst themselves, and the scene immediately became boisterous. When Archimedes heard it, his facial expression became even more ominous. He wants to dismember David now. Archimedes became angry again, and this time, more intense than before.

He glared at David and said with gritted teeth. "David, you asked for it!"

When Archimedes was about to lose control, he felt a hand on his shoulder.

“Master, relax. A little neglect can result in major damage. It seems the other party knows you very well and he wants to trigger your emotions. He wants you to attack him so that the Fellowes' family will cause us trouble. If that happens, the seniors will be disappointed in you. That way, you may lose your position as heir. Besides, we are at the Treasure Trove auction, and he is their guest. So the Fellowes' family will not stand idly by and just watch us attack him." whispered Bernard.

"I know! Uncle Bernard, I'll make him pay after this auction." Archimedes tried his best to contain his anger and said.

“You don't need to say a word. I'll drop it when the auction ends. Then, I'll hand it over to you so you can torture him as you please." Bernard's words pulled Archimedes off the brink of an explosion.

He had lived for so long and this was definitely the first time he felt the most angry. The most angry, and humiliated she had ever felt in her life. If he had not torn David apart, he would have never lived quietly.

So many people here waiting for Archimedes to explode. In the end, he managed to control himself.

They don't understand. As the first heir of the Lightfoot family, how could Archimedes bear being humiliated by a young boy in front of so many people?

'Is this a joke?

Or is Mr Archimedes afraid of who David is?

That was why he only dared to shout but did not take action?'

David was amused when he saw how much Archimedes wanted to kill him and how his expression looked as if his parents had died. If stares could kill, Archimedes might have killed him many times already.

Archimedes still did not know that David had killed Cornelius. What would he think if he knew?

Archimedes was boiling but he did nothing. David knew he was right. Archimedes won't do anything in this auction.

'Yes, your family owns Splendor, one of the top five trading companies in the Central Sacred Continent, but the Fellowes family is not weak either. Treasure Trove is also one of the top five trading companies. As the saying goes, people in the same industry are the enemy. So, the Fellowes and Lightfoot families will not have a good relationship. They've been very good with letting you come to the auction. If you dare to make trouble here, you will have to endure the anger of the Fellowes family. Archimedes, you're the heir, not the head of the family. So, you will also suffer if the Fellowes family attacks you. You may even lose your rights as an heir. After all, you can't see the bigger picture, so how does your family let you take over the family?

If this is just a small auction, you will ask a late stage Sovereign Ranker beside you to kill me now. If that happens, I will just fight back. Unfortunately, this is not the place.'

Now that David has managed to anger Archimedes, he waits to see how the man will repay him.

'I hope he will raise the price of God of Thunder Hammer.’

“Archimedes, stop babbling if you don't dare to do anything. The auction is not over. Name your price. Otherwise, the hammer will be mine.” said David loudly.

Despite saying so many things that made Archimedes angry, David's true goal was still to make Archimedes' offer against him for the Hammer of Thunder.

“David, I'll let you be arrogant for a while longer. Just hang. You will cry later, and I hope you will not kneel down and beg for mercy.”

“Stop your nonsense. Will you mention your price or not? Otherwise, Miss Fellowes, you can announce that the Hammer of Thunder is now mine. I really like that hammer.”

“You want that hammer, huh? Don't even think about it now that I'm here. I'm determined to have that hammer."

"Oh yeah? Then immediately mention your price! Stop talking nonsense. Whoever mentions the highest price will get the hammer. I have the highest price now. 800 billion Dollars Stars.”

“You compared your wealth to mine? Are you stupid?" Archimedes.

“Do not talk about it. Tell me your price! Why are you so chatty like a granny?” david said with a disappointed expression.

He did not expect people like Archimedes to be so long-winded. The Lightfoot family and the Fellowes family were in the same industry, so they were at odds with each other. Naturally, Alba did not want the God of Thunder Hammer to belong to Archimedes. However, if Alba wanted to defend David and announce that his time was up to help him, what would David do?

All his efforts will be in vain.

800 Billion dollar stars would only be 8000 luxury points. Other than the 3000 luxury points from before, there would only be 11000 luxury points. It's not even close to its goal.

David kept urging Archimedes to mention the price, confusing the people who watched it.

‘What is going on?

He angered Archimedes and asked him to bid for the hammer. Does he have too much money?’

Everyone knows that both sides want to win at the moment. Therefore, the price will definitely skyrocket. In the end, it would surpass the true value of the treasure. Even though they did not know what was going on, they were still waiting to see what would happen.

“1 trillion!” Archimedes finally mentions the price.

This is 200 billion higher than David's bid at 800 billion. The hammer was now at a sky-high price of 1 trillion.

David was very happy. He shouted internally, ‘Brother, you finally mentioned your treasure! Thank you! I will make sure to reduce your suffering when I kill you. I'll make sure to finish the job with just one sword slash.’

Since Archimedes has added 200 billion to his price, David will not be left behind.

“1.2 trillion!” David shouted another price.

He also added 200 billion. After he said that, Archimedes shouted another price. “1.5 trillion!”
