Chapter 46: City-Wide Alarm!

Luo Hang had never seen Su Chen with so much money before. Even if Su Chen had a lot of energy crystals, he would need at least a whole truckload to make up one billion Hope Coins.

Sure enough, Su Chen's offer of one billion Hope Coins shocked everyone. For the major families in Base City, one billion Hope Coins could be produced, but it would be a huge loss.

Although energy beads could give a Sixth Order Transcendent hope of breaking through to the Seventh Order, it was only a hope, and the success rate might be less than thirty percent.

Even if they could buy it, if they failed to break through in the end, they would lose a lot of blood.

Su Chen suddenly became the focus of everyone in the room. When they saw that Su Chen was so young, they asked each other which family he belonged to.

But after asking around, they found that no one knew him, which meant that the young man was not part of their circle.

If he wasn't part of their circle, how could he possibly come up with one billion Hope Coins?

Soon, the beautiful woman on stage heard some words and shouted at Su Chen, "Sir, because one billion Hope Coins is of great importance, my auction house hopes that you can produce something worth one billion Hope Coins or an amount of one billion Hope Coins, and I hope you don't mind."

This concern was valid. If Su Chen clearly didn't have one billion Hope Coins but still offered that amount, and the item didn't sell, then it would be the auction house's responsibility.

"I have something worth one billion here." Su Chen strode up to the stage and stood next to the beautiful woman.

The woman was also curious about what could be worth one billion. Since the appearance of the Apocalypse, items worth one billion Hope Coins were few and far between.

"May I ask, sir, what is worth one billion?"

"It's this..." Su Chen reached out and grabbed the two energy beads next to him, then smiled brightly and ran away decisively.

From the beginning, Su Chen had no intention of spending money to buy the energy beads. Since he couldn't afford it, he could only steal it!

The beautiful woman was stunned and screamed, "Robbery!"

The entire auction house was in an uproar. Someone dared to rob in Base City, they must not want to live!

Su Yi had already received Su Chen's warning and grabbed Luo Hang's arm, rushing out at lightning speed. The auction turned into a chase.

With the strength of Su Chen and Su Yi at the peak of the Fifth Order, their speed was as fast as lightning. Ordinary Transcendents couldn't catch up with them, and even bullets couldn't hit them. This was the power of a Fifth Order Transcendent.

"What about the boss and the others?" Luo Hang suddenly realized.

"I told them to wait at the door in advance."

Su Chen didn't let them go out directly. After all, the inspection at the door was very strict, and Leng Yuwei was too conspicuous.

At the door, they would wait for them to pass and then rush out. This was Su Chen's plan.

"Getting two cores in this operation is not a loss. We can establish two branch bases." Su Chen thought.

He could see that his energy was gradually increasing at a considerable speed. Ju Ling's base had already started mining, and judging by the speed, there were probably no less than ten Space-time mining vehicles.

The entire Base City was in an uproar. Since the jailbreak incident yesterday, it was unexpected that a robbery would occur just a few days later, and it happened at Tianyu Auction House.

Everyone knew that Tianyu Auction House was a large auction house spanning more than ten Base Cities. Offending this auction house was even more terrifying than offending a Base City controller.

It was said that there was at least one Seventh Order Transcendent behind Tianyu Auction House.

Some people who heard about this were confused. Were these people looking for death?

Su Chen didn't have time to care about what others thought. He was now rushing towards a city gate.

Leng Yuwei suddenly realized that the city gate was closing. What should they do?

Once the city gate closed, without the orders of the high-level officials of Base City, no one could open it. This city gate was quite sturdy and could withstand attacks from Fifth Order Transcendents.

"Did something happen to Brother Chen and the others?" Zhang Tao wondered.

When Zhang Tao first called Su Chen "Brother Chen," he shocked him. How could a middle-aged man call him "Brother Chen"? He couldn't bear it.

Later, Su Chen learned that this guy was just impatient.

"I think so. I don't know what big commotion they've caused again. Even the city gate is starting to close." Leng Yuwei knew that if this continued, even if Su Chen and the others came over, they wouldn't be able to leave.

"This won't work. Su Er, I know I don't have the right to order you, but I hope you can think about it. If this continues, Su Chen may not be able to leave. I think we should create some chaos here and let them arrive in time."

Leng Yuwei thought her plan was good, but she overlooked one thing. Su Er could contact Su Chen at any time, which meant that Su Chen was already prepared.

"Don't worry, Miss Leng. Young Master has already prepared for this. We just need to wait here." Su Er was calm.

Influenced by Su Er, Leng Yuwei calmed down. Since Su Chen was prepared, she just had to wait. After all, Su Chen had rescued her from a Gathering Place full of Mutant Beasts.

Soon, the city gate closed, and Leng Yuwei heard gunshots getting closer and closer.

Finally, she saw three people rushing towards them. Who else could it be but Su Chen and the others?

"The city gate is closed." Su Chen stopped beside Leng Yuwei and saw the changes in the city gate. However, his tone was very calm, without any sense of panic.

"Now what should we do?" Leng Yuwei asked.

"We..."

Before Su Chen could speak, a roar sounded, "No one has ever dared to steal from my Tianyu Auction House. You have a lot of guts!"

The next second, a slightly broad fat man appeared not far away. He looked at Su Chen with a gasping expression, as if he wanted to eat him.

The fat man was the Transcendent who sat here in the Tianyu Auction House, a fifth-order peak Transcendent.

After all, even the Tianyu Auction House could not equip every auction house with a Sixth Order Transcendent. A fifth-order peak Transcendent was already quite strong.

Unfortunately, this fat man did not know that Wang Yi, the fifth-order peak Transcendent, had died in Su Yi's hands. What was he?

Su Chen ignored him and looked up at the sky. Suddenly, he laughed lightly, "It should be about time."

As soon as he finished speaking, Base City sounded a piercing alarm, the city-wide alarm!
