255: C255 Fortuitous Encounter with Acquaintance

C255 Fortuitous Encounter with Acquaintance

The auction house was a huge building. It was built in the shape of a cylinder, with layers upon layers on top of each other. There were at least six or seven floors.

Moreover, its area of operations was not small, almost the size of a Knight Academy.

Other than the Royal Academy's buildings that were supported by the empire, the location of this auction was probably one of the top private buildings in the world.

It seemed like the boss of this auction house should also have a considerable amount of strength. Otherwise, it would be impossible for him to do something of such a scale in a small city like Fallen Star City.

This large-scale auction house should be bustling with people from all walks of life. Lin Mo decided to go in and take a look.

"I'm sorry, sir. The auction house will only be open for sale by day. Please come back tomorrow morning."

Just as Lin Mo walked to the door, he was stopped by a guard at the door.

Lin Mo was taken aback for a moment, but soon, he came to a realization.

It was night and only underground auctions were taking place. It was impossible to enter without a recommendation.

Just as Lin Mo was about to lie and say that he was a seller, someone suddenly grabbed onto his shoulder.

"This is my friend. He's new here and doesn't know the rules."

Lin Mo turned around and embraced a person whose entire body was covered by a black robe. His voice was fake and it was impossible to tell who he was.

As the man in black spoke, he passed a card with repeated patterns to the guard.

"Alright, I understand."

The guard took the card with both hands, and after a thorough verification, he returned it to the black-robed man.

Following that, the guard opened the door and invited the two into the auction house.

After the guard returned, the black cloaked man immediately put down his hand that was embracing Lin Mo.

As if he was very familiar with this auction house, he quickly led Lin Mo to a hidden door.

Opening the secret door, there was a staircase that led downwards.

Lin Mo finally understood the secret behind this auction house.

The part on the ground was used during the day's auction. There were some insignificant auctions and trades going on.

The big deals in this auction were all done on this underground exchange.

Moreover, the underground auction would only be held at night, and it should be under the membership system.

It was clear how dark and complex these deals were.

When they reached the corner of the staircase, the black cloaked man stopped. Lin Mo followed suit and stopped as well.

"Thank you for your help. May I know your name?"

Lin Mo cupped his fists towards the black cloaked man and asked softly.

"You are really forgetful. Today, we just made a deal of fifty thousand gold coins, did you forget?"

The black robed man snorted and said.

Fifty thousand gold coins?

Rue!0

Although he could not see the other party's face clearly and his voice had undergone a special treatment, Lin Mo immediately knew that this was Lu En the moment he mentioned the matter of the fifty thousand gold coins.

This little girl actually knew of this auction house's background.

"There are too many eyes, just like the underworld. This is my backup black robe, you should use it."

As Lu En spoke, he looked around and fished out a set of black robes, which he handed over to Lin Mo.

Although Lin Mo did not want to make things look too shameful, he did not mind. If by any chance someone with malicious intentions were to appear, Warmth and Warmth would follow in their footsteps.

Lin Mo was not a selfish person, so he put on the black robe that Lu En gave him.
