Chapter 352: Chapter 333 Enemy of the Public: Feng Hua
"Are you Feng Hua?"
Cui Dongxu, leading a group of people, forcefully made their way through the dense crowd to stand in front of Lin Yi, questioning him.
Lin Yi glanced at him with a look of incredulity:
"Are you blind?"
If not, he should have seen the name Feng Hua displayed clearly on his forehead.
For such obviously rhetorical questions, Lin Yi really couldn’t be bothered to answer.
"You!"
Cui Dongxu, furious beyond measure, glared at Lin Yi, initially intending to say something threatening, but the words got stuck in his throat.
Cui Dongxu quickly adjusted his breathing and emotions, then spoke in the calmest voice he could muster:
"This [Holy Seal Cloak] is very important to me. How about you let me have it?"
Even though at this moment, Cui Dongxu wished he could tear the person in front of him to pieces, in order to acquire this equipment, he had no choice but to maintain a calm demeanor.
At least until he secured this piece of equipment, he’d have to hold his breath.
Because he didn’t know how many points this Feng Hua had, and Cui Dongxu didn’t intend to spend all his points to get this equipment.
However, what Lin Yi said next instantly infuriated him:
"Sorry, I want it too. How about you let me have it?"
This suddenly drove Cui Dongxu to a frenzy:
"You’re asking for death!"
Just as Cui Dongxu was about to make a move, a palpable killing intent emanated from a City Guard soldier behind Lin Yi:
"No disturbances in front of the City Lord’s Mansion, or it’s a kill-without-mercy policy!"
Seeing those level 60 soldiers, Cui Dongxu hesitated in his actions.
Lin Yi smiled slightly:
"Well?"
At this point, someone leaked Lin Yi’s message on Channel 8, which was originally green, meaning it filled up instantly, and those reacting slowly couldn’t get in.
Lin Yi was then surrounded by a crowd of onlookers:
"Is this that Feng Hua from Hua Country? He’s not handsome at all!"
"Doesn’t seem all that formidable either."
Some were even more curious:
"How did he come to our Goryeo War Zone?"
"Wonder if we can go play in the Hua Country War Zone."
In the crowd, a figure suddenly caught Lin Yi’s attention.
Yuna was staring dumbfoundedly at Lin Yi. Noticing Yuna’s gaze, Lin Yi smiled and nodded, as a way of greeting.
But whatever Yuna was thinking at the moment, she made no response.
Seeing this, Lin Yi didn’t pay much attention, instead, he looked at the big screen.
The most crucial thing now was to get his hands on this equipment.
In the next moment, Lin Yi’s name was instantly replaced by Cui Dongxu, and the points increased from 1000 to 1500.
At this point, Cui Dongxu looked grotesquely at Lin Yi:
"You Hua people have a saying about stopping when the time is right. This is my Goryeo’s territory!!!"
By the end, the threat in Cui Dongxu’s eyes was quite blatant.
However:
Lin Yi chuckled, directly pulling out the bidding panel...
"8000!"
The points suddenly surged from 1500 to 8000, leaving all the Goryeo players dumbfounded at the sight, causing quite a stir.
"Aish, is this guy crazy?"
"Are all Hua people like madmen not afraid of death? Daring to be so arrogant on our turf."
Looking at the reactions around him that suggested shock and awe, Lin Yi simply smiled indifferently, knowing he had plenty of points.
Upon seeing the number eight thousand, Cui Dongxu began trembling uncontrollably.
If looks could kill, Lin Yi would have been shredded to pieces by Cui Dongxu’s piercing glare.
At this moment, everyone in the square on Channel 8 turned their attention to Cui Dongxu.
Now, everyone was curious, faced with this situation, whether Cui Dongxu had any ability to counter it.
After all, looking at the bids for the other 19 pieces of equipment, eight thousand seemed to be a number nearing the limit.
"8443"
The points were refreshed again, and Cui Dongxu pressed the number with trembling hands.
He could only gamble now, betting that eight thousand was Feng Hua’s limit.
But in the next moment, the number changed once again:
"9000"...
The entire venue fell into a dead silence as everyone stared, wide-eyed, at this number:
"Where did this person get so many points?"
"Aish, this guy is really..."
Cui Dongxu suddenly turned around, eyes bloodshot, staring at Lin Yi:
"You!"
Even surrounded by a group of high-level Goryeo fighters, Lin Yi’s face maintained an air of calmness:
"What, President Cui, are you not planning to bid a little higher?"
Everyone looked at Lin Yi as if he was a madman, their eyes filled with shock and disbelief.
Where did he find the courage to be so brazen and oblivious in the Goryeo War Zone?
Of course, aside from those people, there were also some Hua Country players mixed in, their eyes filled with admiration and pride.
Were it not for being in enemy territory, they would’ve probably burst into laughter by now: Is there no one else?
In the entire Goryeo War Zone, no one dared to be this blatantly arrogant to Goryeo’s top tycoon Cui Dongxu, but this first person from Hua Country dared, and not only dared but did it with a flourish.
"Aish, is anyone else going to bid? We can’t let him take this equipment!"
It was only then that the crowd reacted:
Of course! Feng Hua is from the Hua Country War Zone, yet this event is Goryeo War Zone’s, and the legendary equipment is only 20 pieces.
If he were to take one of them, it would be a huge disgrace!
However, no matter how people shouted, the number "9000" stood like a mountain in front of everyone, unyielding.
The auction countdown suddenly appeared on the big screen:
10, 9...3, 2, 1!
Auction closed!
Lin Yi successfully claimed the [Holy Seal Cloak] with a whopping 9000 points, and the entire place fell silent.
Looking at the silent square, Lin Yi beamed, cupping his hands to those around him:
"Thank you!"
At this moment, a figure suddenly leapt out from Lin Yi’s side:
"Ah!"
Two daggers engulfed in flames lunged directly at Lin Yi.
Seeing this, Yuna called out in anger:
"Watch out!"
Yet Lin Yi stood there unmoved, as if nothing were happening.
Just as the Assassin’s attack was about to land on Lin Yi, a flash of cold light appeared...
The Assassin, who had suddenly attacked, instantly vanished into white light in front of everyone.
Behind Lin Yi, the City Guard soldier sheathed his sword and stood, speaking again:
"No disturbances in front of the City Lord’s Mansion, or it’s a kill-without-mercy policy."
Everyone inhaled sharply: What terrifying speed!
Only then did they understand why Lin Yi dared to appear so blatantly in public.
With protection from such high-level soldiers, who would dare touch him?
Only then did Yuna slowly approach Lin Yi, asking with concern:
"Are you alright?"
Lin Yi looked at Yuna somewhat surprised — he was, after all, their Goryeo’s enemy, her concern seemed a bit inappropriate.
But seeing that she genuinely didn’t seem to be pretending, Lin Yi replied:
"I’m fine."
And the people around were stunned by Yuna’s concern.
Cui Dongxu was even more furious:
"Yuna, do you know what you’re doing? Get back here right now!"
The incident on the World Forum had barely settled, and now the crowd erupted once again.
Whether out of pressure from Cui Dongxu or from the surrounding public opinion, Yuna didn’t argue but instead, quietly approached Lin Yi and whispered:
"Be careful."
Then she abruptly disappeared from everyone’s sight: she went offline.
At this moment, Lin Yi picked up a scroll she had slipped him, looking shocked:
"A Space Scroll?"
