The talks ended here and the deal was a foregone conclusion. The initial plan was based on the auction. Since the 62nd floor was already impregnably guarded by the people of the Holy Sect, it would be better to let the target come out on his own.
Moreover, only at this time can the mission that Qin Hao sent out to Erwa with a lot of money can be effective. Only when the killers attack the Holy Son one after another and cause chaos, can he find a good opportunity to take advantage of the chaos to kill him!
After a night of indulgence, Qin Hao issued a grounding order to the three of them, asking them to rest and recuperate in the room, quietly waiting for the auction to arrive.
The day came quickly. That night, Qin Hao and Baimao entered the auction venue as guests. As for Qiu Lin and Zhang Chao, they disguised themselves as being on the periphery, and were ready to respond to Qin Hao and others at any time.
At the auction, Qin Hao finally met the man who was his target. He has blond hair, wears a handmade suit, and has extremely sharp eyes. Next to him is Qin Hao's old acquaintance and one of the goals of this trip, Xu Fanghua.
Of course, it is impossible for the Holy Son to come alone. Behind him, there are two people standing. One is a wild man who is huge and strong and even stronger than an iron pillar. The other has a Asian face, dressed in white, with a long sword slung behind his back, he was almost completely in tune with his target.
After just one glance, Qin Hao withdrew his gaze in time. The two guards around him were both masters. Paying attention to him for too long would only attract his attention and make him more vigilant, which would in turn cause more harm than gain.
After scanning the surrounding environment, it seemed calm and peaceful, but Qin Hao could feel the murderous intent hidden in it, causing his blood factors to gradually become agitated.
The Holy Gate obviously felt the heavy aura, but even so, the Holy Son's expression remained the same, and he kept teasing Xu Fanghua beside him, while a pair of magic hands wandered between the woman's plump legs.
I don’t know whether it was intentional or just a coincidence, but Qin Hao’s position and Christina’s position happened to be together, and the blond knight Artoria was following her.
However, Qin Hao also discovered something was wrong. It seemed that in addition to him and the Holy Sect and the killers lurking in the dark, ready to attack at any time, there seemed to be other forces in the auction venue, and Qin Hao had to be vigilant and vigilant. power.
"If I read it correctly, the people on the left who are filled with darkness and wearing black robes should be from the Dark Parliament, while those on the right who are dressed as priests and wear crosses on their chests should belong to the Holy See of Light. This auction What kind of mystery is there, and why do they appear here?" Qin Hao looked at Christina with a solemn expression, moved his lips lightly, and asked in a low voice.
"You don't know? I thought you would understand the importance of this auction. There is something in the auction that the powerful and powerful people all over the world want." Christina was stunned for a moment, but she didn't seem to have any idea. Anticipating this, his expression looked a little weird, "Otherwise, why do you think he and I stayed here for so long? Even if he knew that he was on the list of the three major platforms and would be in danger, he still waited for the auction Yes, it should be for that thing."
"Of course, our purposes are not the same. He appears here mainly for the mission of the Holy Sect, and I just want to fulfill Artoria's wish, get back what belongs to him, and by the way, see the Holy Son again. Scenes of being killed.”
"What on earth is that that attracts so many people's attention?" Qin Hao frowned slightly. What he was most worried about now was the changes in the plan. If it was just to create chaos, he would welcome it, but if they were to If the Holy Sect helps, then the matter will be really serious.
In Europe, the two major forces with the longest history and deepest roots are the Holy See of Light, also known as the Parliament of Light, and the Parliament of Darkness.
As the name suggests, the two are in an opposite relationship. One claims to be bright and the servant of the God of Light. It claims to purify the light and eliminate heretics, which is somewhat similar to the Chinese Buddhism.
The other side represents darkness and hates the so-called God of Light. It is said that their ancestors were originally people of the God of Light, but because they were seduced by the devil, they eventually became heretics abandoned by God.
However, Qin Hao also heard about the past of these ancient times. After all, history is written by the victors. The two parties are right when they talk about public affairs. Who knows what the truth is.
Moreover, Qin Hao just listened to these as a kind of gossip. What is the truth and what does it have to do with him
However, allowing these two mortal enemies to appear at the auction at the same time and wait for the auction in temporary peace is enough to show the criticality of the auction item. Moreover, the Holy Sect and the blond knight also want to get that item. These many It is indeed difficult to handle the forces gathered here.
No wonder the French government was involved in just a so-called auction. Even people from the Secret Intelligence Organization of the General Directorate of External Security, commonly known as the Seventh Bureau, were dispatched to arrange the auction on a large luxury cruise ship on the Danube River. Obviously, it was also Worry that something will go wrong.
After all, there are too many organizations involved. It is impossible for the French government to stop the auction and offend everyone. However, if the auction is just allowed to be held in the city center, it is very likely that there will be some big disturbance. It is better to stay away from the city. good.
However, Qin Hao is more curious about who is behind the auction that can affect many parties? Why did he create this auction? What is the intention
"Do you know the Holy Grail?" Christina asked softly with a smile.
Qin Hao nodded slightly: "I know something. According to legend, this is a cup carved from jade that Jesus Christ used in the Last Supper. When Jesus was crucified, his disciple Joseph used this cup Catch the blood shed by Jesus. I have heard legends about this thing in the underground world before, saying that it has the secret of immortality. However, because it has disappeared in the long river of history for hundreds of years, I have only heard about it. That's all. Why did you suddenly mention such a thing? Could it be... "
"You are right. According to the news, the Holy Grail will appear in this auction." Christina looked intently, as if she didn't want people to see that she and Qin Hao were very familiar. He was speaking completely with the resonance of his chest, "Furthermore, the legend you learned is somewhat one-sided. Because it is an item that has been around for a long time, there are many legends left. Some people think that this cup has special characteristics because of the special occasion of the Last Supper. Some kind of magical ability. According to legend, the magical furnace of Anwen in the other world is the predecessor of the Holy Grail.
Many legends believe that if you can find this Holy Grail and drink the water it contains, you will be rejuvenated, resurrected from the dead, and gain eternal life. A more consistent view is that it is a chalice that once contained the blood of Christ. Later, Joseph of Arimasia brought the Holy Grail to Gladstone Castle in southern England. From then on, the whereabouts of the Holy Grail became a mystery. In the legend of King Arthur, the Holy Grail is all made of gold, and the loss of the Holy Grail is also in the legend of King Arthur. "
"So the guardian knight next to you should be the guardian of your dynasty and one of the Knights of the Round Table under the King of Knights? The reason why you and him are here is to find the lost Holy Grail?" Here, Qin Hao already understood what Christina meant and immediately made inferences.
"Yes." Christina seemed to have no intention of hiding the identity of the blond knight Arturia, and readily admitted.
"Tsk tsk..." Qin Hao couldn't help but smacked his lips, and then said; "Although the Knight King is powerful and belongs to the Four Emperors and Seven Kings, he only relies on one of his knights of the Round Table to seize the opportunity from the two major parliaments, the Dark Parliament and the Light Parliament. Taking back the Holy Grail is tantamount to snatching food from a tiger's mouth, and the possibility of success is almost zero. As far as I know, there are a total of 150 Knights of the Round Table, and their strength varies among them. The most powerful are twelve. , known as the Twelve Knights of the Round Table.
Although I have not fought against the Knights of the Round Table, according to my guess, their strength is at best just barely reaching the threshold of Grand Master. Even if Arturia is one of the twelve Knights of the Round Table, if they want to rely on their own strength to defeat the two major Parliamentary opposition is still a pipe dream. In fact, the people from the seventh round have already made their position known by sending us on the boat. They will not interfere in the fight. The auction is completely unnecessary. I am sure that in the end, the ownership of the Holy Grail must still rely on force. Decide. "
"I know that the other party has spent a lot of money for the Holy Grail. There are a total of thirteen clans in the Vampire Clan, and a total of thirteen princes. Two came this time, as well as a dark magician and so on. The Vatican even dispatched a red man. Archbishop Yi, Knights Templar." Qin Hao had to admire Christina's intelligence power, and actually reported the troops dispatched by both sides like a treasure.
"Now that you know this, you should know even more clearly that you have no chance of winning."
"That's not necessarily true," Christina smiled mysteriously, obviously hiding something, and said with a smile: "Your Majesty, how do you know that we don't have stronger combat power here? Or maybe Arturia can do it alone. As good as a million-strong army?"
Qin Hao has never been a person who likes to play riddles with others. Since Christina is unwilling to tell, Qin Hao does not need to pursue the question. The Holy Grail has nothing to do with him in the first place. His goal is only the Holy Son, and immortality, no matter it is Whether it was true or not, he had no interest in it, at least for now.
Almost everyone had arrived, the cruise ship started to move, and the auction officially kicked off. Everything was going on in an orderly manner, but there was an obvious lack of passion. Obviously, before the Holy Grail appeared, it was no different from an ordinary auction. Such auction items cannot attract the attention of all parties.
Time passed slowly. Seeing that the night was getting deeper, the cruise ship also sailed out of the Danube River and continued to sail towards the sea. Qin Hao was not in a hurry and was still waiting for the opportunity.
Finally, the last auction item slowly came to the high platform in the hands of the female model. It was a golden wine glass. Although Qin Hao had lost his cultivation, he could still feel a sense of passion from that item. Faint energy fluctuations.
If nothing else, this should be the ultimate goal of the auction, the Holy Grail!
However, just when the auctioneer was about to introduce the item and bid for it, the lights in the entire venue suddenly dimmed and the surrounding area became dark. Everyone couldn't help but panic and roared.
The next second, only a scream was heard from the high platform. This was the voice of the auctioneer. For many masters with advanced cultivation levels, the dark environment has no effect. Although Qin Hao has no cultivation level, he can His eyesight was the best among the group. He clearly saw a dark figure running up the high platform from nowhere after the lights went out. He killed the auctioneer with a knife and grabbed the Holy Grail at the same time.
"How dare you, thief!"
With a loud shout, whether it was the Dark Council or the Light Holy See, people from both sides sprang out of their seats at almost the same moment, aiming directly at the black figure on the high platform who wanted to snatch the Holy Grail.
At the same time, a violent explosion sounded, and dust and smoke suddenly flew everywhere. The door of the auction venue was blown open, and a group of killers and mercenaries in various disguises rushed in. Some were pointed at the Holy Son, and some were on the high platform. The Holy Grail.
The venue was in chaos, with fighting everywhere, but there were only two basic goals, the Holy Son and the Holy Grail!
Qin Hao was still not in a hurry, sitting calmly on his seat, observing the chaotic surroundings with his eyes fixed on the Holy Son, waiting for this opportunity, ready to take action at any time.
The same is true for Baimao. They had expected that such an incident would happen. With a head worth two billion US dollars, there were many people who were willing to pay the price with their lives.
Although there are many killers, there are not many strong ones. The Holy Sect has obviously been prepared for a long time. The moment the lights go out, there are many Holy Sect masters who have ambushed the Holy Son in the center, facing the killer. Yi Lingran’s many killers.
Qin Hao could tell from the uncooperative assassination actions of these killers that the truly powerful killer organizations had not yet started to take action. For the time being, they were all lone rangers. Obviously, those organizations had also tried to make this group impatient and unorganized first. The undisciplined guy plans to consume the opponent's strength before taking action.
The mantis stalks the cicada and the oriole follows behind. Since Qin Hao and Baimao are the ones who plan the action, they naturally have to be the oriole.
On the high platform, all the forces have already fought together. Everyone wants to get the Holy Grail, but the opposing party will not let them get their wish. The dark figure who tried to snatch the Holy Grail before did not know how to escape in the chaos. Where did it go.
"Aren't you ready to take action? The fight between the Dark Parliament and the Holy See of Light is so lively, why don't you join in the fun? If you don't be careful, the Holy Grail will be taken away by them." Qin Hao glanced at the battle situation on the high platform and looked towards him with a smile. Christina, things have reached this point. Pretending is no longer necessary, and Qin Hao has returned to his original appearance.
Unexpectedly, Christina was not anxious at all. Instead, she said with a smile: "Your Majesty, there is no need to worry about us. With Arturia here, they will not be able to leave even if they get the Holy Grail. On the contrary, Your Majesty, you, the one beside the Holy Son, The defensive strength has not weakened at all. If we continue to use it like this, it is estimated that all those cannon fodders will be dead and they will not be able to see the Holy Son himself."
While the two were talking, the situation in the venue changed again. The Holy Son roared and reprimanded his subordinates: "What are you doing here? The Holy Grail is about to be snatched away. Why don't you hurry up and get the Holy Grail back for me?" !”
"Lord Holy Son, the situation is very dangerous now. I don't know how many killers are hiding in the dark. We..." The subordinates persuaded one after another.
"What nonsense!" The Holy Son was furious, "I have two gentlemen protecting me, but those losers want my life? If I can't get the Holy Grail, not to mention you, even I will be punished. Don't you think?" Are you going to die? Why don't you hurry up and get the Holy Grail back? Go quickly!"
"Yes!" The guards had no choice but to obey orders and rush towards the high platform. The protective power around the Holy Son suddenly became much weaker. Except for the two masters who were personally guarding him, there were only a few guards left.
Qin Hao had to say that the Holy Son was asking for his own death. In the past, when there were more guards around him, he might have to be more cautious in his actions, but now that the guards around him were reduced by more than half, many flaws were also exposed.
Sure enough, after the defense forces around the Holy Son dispersed, many killer organizations that had been hiding for a long time finally started to take action. The strength and cooperation of these killers were obviously not comparable to that of the group just now, although they also paid a lot of effort. The price was high, but the outermost guards of the Holy Son were quickly killed, leaving only the swordsman and the thick-haired man who were the personal guards!
"Kill him! Take his head!"
Following the order, many killers rushed towards the Holy Son with excited smiles of success on their faces. They had almost seen the string of zeros as two billion US dollars were deposited into their accounts.
However, the Holy Son did not look scared at all. Instead, a disdainful sneer appeared at the corner of his mouth, and his eyes were filled with contempt and ridicule.
The next moment, the figure of the swordsman in white was seen turning around. Before the sword was unsheathed, streams of sword light were already spurting out. The sword rain was colorful, like the Milky Way pouring down from the nine heavens!
