"Damn coward!"
Ulysses Klaue, who successfully auctioned the vibranium ore at a price of 155 million, now had a dark face and glared in the direction of box No. 6, cursing.
The reason why he was angry was that he was the seller of the ten-kilogram vibranium ore.
More than a decade ago, by chance, Ulysses Klaue discovered a secret path leading to Wakanda.
He led a group of people and successfully sneaked into Wakanda through this secret passage, injured the king of Wakanda, and stole 250 kilograms of vibranium ore.
According to the price of vibranium on the black market, one gram of vibranium ore is worth ten thousand US dollars.
Two hundred and fifty kilograms of vibranium ore are worth two and a half billion dollars. This amount of money was enough for Ulysses Klaue and his group to achieve financial freedom and become billionaires.
But who would have thought that Wakanda, this mysterious small African country, not only has advanced technology that is decades ahead of the Earth.
While they were closing their country to the outside world, they also had an intelligence network spread all over the world.
PRIDE, an intelligence organization directly under the King of Wakanda, has been frantically hunting down Ulysses Klaue and his gang for more than ten years.
Up to now, of the seventeen people who originally entered Wakanda, only Ulysses Klaue himself survived the pursuit of the PRIDE organization.
The reason why he can live safely until now is because he is cautious enough.
PRIDE's espionage and intelligence network is very developed, and many people who come to them to buy vibranium may have already sold them to PRIDE.
Six of Ulysses' accomplices died in PRIDE's sting operation.
Therefore, over the years, except for a few channels that he thought were safe, he never shipped goods easily.
The liquidity auction held by the mysterious organization has been a shipping channel that he has trusted for many years.
Although Ulysses has vibranium ore, due to limited cash conversion channels, the money he has at his disposal is not as much as he imagined.
He has always wanted to recruit soldiers, reorganize the team, and go to Wakanda again to make a big move.
This is also the reason why he chose to sell ten kilograms of vibranium ore at one time.
At today's auction, he had originally wanted to drive up the price because he saw that the people in Box 6 were determined to win, but he didn't expect that the people in Box 6 didn't even bid as much.
This time he ended up losing more than he gained.
Although he was the owner of the goods, according to the rules of the auction, he needed to pay the auction organizer a 10% agency fee of the transaction price of 155 million, which is 15.5 million US dollars.
You know, the unit price of a Federal M1A2SEP main battle tank does not exceed 9 million US dollars.
He has vibranium ore in his hand, but this thing can only be used to make money if it is converted into cash.
Fifteen million, this money is enough for him to recruit a group of black uncles in Africa and form a mercenary army.
Ulysses Klaue was cursing and was so angry that he almost wanted to rush into Box No. 6 and pull out the people inside and shoot them.
However, the fully armed guards patrolling the venue dispelled his angry thoughts.
During the next few auctions, Ulysses Klaue’s eyes never left Box Six.
He didn't notice at all that a black line as thin as a hair floated over his body and stuck to the trouser leg of his camouflage uniform.
After a few auctions, the beautiful auctioneer waved her hand and two burly men standing on the sidelines used a crowbar to pry open a wooden box next to the venue.
The two men carried out a carpet-shaped round shaft from the wooden box.
"The following item is a roll of the inner belly skin of a mysterious creature. The starting price is two million US dollars!"
Behind the beautiful auctioneer, two sturdy men pulled the "carpet" from the middle to both sides, and a huge piece of white leather was slowly opened, just like a movie screen.
The scales, as big as washbasins, are stacked tightly together. The scales reflected under the light emit a glow like white gemstones.
But at this moment, everyone in the conference hall seemed to be strangled by the neck.
He stared blankly at the animal hide that was as big as a wall.
Snake skin. This was the first impression that everyone in the venue had when they saw this piece of animal skin.
Deep within human genes, fragments of ancient memories have engraved the danger of these long, patterned creatures into DNA.
Many people sitting in the chairs in the conference hall began to tremble uncontrollably.
As we all know, many snakes generally grow some protective scales on their abdomen to protect their soft abdomen when crawling.
But even the legendary giant python cannot have scales this big, let alone the fine and dense belly scales.
In human society, snakes as thick as a wash basin can be called super pythons, and the ventral scales on this piece of skin are as big as a wash basin.
If you look at the belly leather alone, the snake is big enough to wrap around this 10,000-ton ship.
A suffocating feeling permeated the venue, as if the oppressed people were unable to breathe.
Dadadada, the teeth of several people who were closer to the snake's belly skin began to chatter uncontrollably.
That is the awe and fear that humans have in their bones when facing top predators!
"Three million dollars!"
A clear voice echoed in the conference hall. It came from box number 6.
The bidding sound broke the almost frozen atmosphere in the venue.
A few wealthy people who reacted took off their coats, wrapped them around their waists, and hurried to the bathroom.
Obviously, facing the snake's belly scales, these people were frightened to the point of incontinence.
However, no one present had time to laugh at them, as their legs were trembling.
A super giant python as thick as a cruise ship, the mere thought of it is terrifying.
In a corner of the auction, the saber-toothed tiger standing behind Magneto slowly retracted its fangs and claws. Just at the moment when the snake skin was unfolded, the saber-toothed tiger directly entered the attack state.
As a top mutant, Sabretooth Victor possesses extraordinary resilience, endurance, strength, and beast-like instincts.
With its extraordinary beast instinct, the saber-toothed tiger sensed a dangerous aura from the snake skin.
Magneto seemed to notice the vigilance shown by Sabretooth, and he looked back at Sabretooth with some surprise.
"I thought you didn't know how to be afraid. Do you also get scared sometimes?"
The saber-toothed tiger looked at Magneto and growled at the hanging snake skin. The barely audible growl was full of provocation.
"Okay, let's get down to business. If you like this snake skin, take it with you!"
Magneto's casual words calmed Sabretooth's emotions.
Although Magneto was also surprised that there was such a big snake in the world, compared with his ideals and career, a snake was nothing to him.
He had teamed up with his old rival in the past and had even killed gods, let alone a snake.
What Magneto cares about is the research data and genetic samples about mutants.
… … …
At this moment, in box number six, Tang Song's eyes were fixed on the piece of snake belly skin.
It is obviously not appropriate to describe this piece of snake skin as a roll. It should be a torn piece of snake skin. Compared with the huge body of the snake, the tiny piece of snake skin is insignificant, just like the dead skin shed from a human body.
Tang Song's spiritual consciousness swept across the snake skin and he could feel the powerful aura of the original owner. It was not his cultivation or extraordinary strength, but a kind of essential power of life, like a life leap.
He felt a sense of eternity on this snake skin, as if the owner of this snake skin had lived for tens of millions of years.
