He could not help but wonder, “What’s going on? Why do I feel so uneasy?!”But in the next moment, he felt that he might be overthinking. After all, he had broken through to the Master Realm and was no longer the same as ordinary martial artists. How many opponents could he have in this world with his own strength? How could there be an expert who could target him in a place like this?He did not know that Porter had already placed his finger above the enter key on the computer. As long as Porter pressed the enter key, the three close-defense missiles would carry out a saturated strike on Brody’s location and his surrounding areas swiftly. Porter was already sweating nervously, and his master, Pilos, who was standing behind him was also incomparably nervous as he said, “Porter, fire! This person is moving so fast, so he must be one of the four great earls!” Porter shook his head and said, “Master, I’m worried that he still has companions with him. As long as we are stable, it’s

When Porter’s fingertip struck the keyboard, the three close-defense missiles that had long locked onto Brody began to rotate their pitch-black barrels immediately. This was immediately followed by thirty millimeters of artillery shells instantly erupting from the eighteen barrels of the three close-defense missiles!A large number of bullets penetrated the camouflaged glass house following the trajectory called the Kiss of Death which spewed out almost frantic flames at Brody!The speed of the bullets and artillery shells was faster than the speed of sound, but this speed was not obvious at close range. Under normal circumstances, if a person was sniped from hundreds of meters away, he would definitely be shot first before hearing the sound. However, Brody had been carefully observing his surroundings. Since the speed of light was much faster than the speed of sound and the initial speed of the artillery shells, Brody discovered that the three glasshouses on the three commanding

Brody’s last conscious thoughts were filled with anger and unwillingness.He never thought he would end up dead without a body. Compared to the taxi driver he had killed out of anger just now, the taxi driver only had a missing head, but Brody might not even be able to save his brain!Before his spinning head landed on the ground, the artillery shells were still whizzing past him intensely, blasting the opposite side of the wall into powder one after the other. Fortunately, among the misfortunes, although Brody’s body had turned into mush, his head was able to skillfully dodge this intensive barrage because the target was smaller and still in the process of rotating.Although the glasses-shaped ballistic trajectory set by the weapon expert from Ten Thousand Armies was very powerful, it still prioritized greater coverage, so the ballistic trajectory was not dense enough to reduce it to the size of the head. Brody’s head was temporarily saved because of this. However, when the art

When Porter gave the command, the bases of the three close-defense missiles suddenly emitted a series of explosions. The close-defense missiles that were originally fixed firmly on the concrete bases were instantly disconnected. Immediately afterward, all the bases of the glasshouses were blown off. The engineering team that had been arranged in advance rushed up directly and pushed the glass roofs all the way downstairs and then connected the lifting straps as they waited for the helicopters to come and hoist the three close-defense missiles away. Meanwhile, the Armed Calvary Guards and their families who had prepared to retreat began to rush out of their rooms as if they were firefighters on duty. They had little luggage with them because they did not have many personal belongings here. The dead soldiers and their families had been evacuated by ship a few days ago, so as long as the people on the ground were evacuated during the retreat, the place could instantly be blown to ru

If Porter came into direct contact with him, he might have been killed with a single move before he could even come to his senses. Therefore, judging from the other party’s strength, he must have been one of the four great earls.Charlie heaved a sigh of relief and called Porter. As soon as the call was connected, Porter said respectfully, “Mr. Wade, did you see all the videos I sent to you?”Charlie said with a smile, “I saw the videos. You guys did a very beautiful job. Although the other party was very strong, he had no power to fight back at all. Everything was done perfectly!”Porter hurriedly said, “It’s all thanks to your good idea, Mr. Wade. Otherwise, even if I think again and again, I wouldn’t have thought of using close-defense missiles to deal with the experts from the Qing Eliminating Society…”Porter was not flattering Charlie whatsoever. He truly admired Charlie’s foresight from the bottom of his heart. In the past, Ten Thousand Armies had taken on missions all

Porter did not question Charlie’s caution at all. He said without hesitation, “Okay, Mr. Wade. The entire copper mine has collapsed into ruins now. The officials from Cyprus will definitely take over the investigation after such a big commotion today. At that time, not to mention that there would be no clues left at the scene, it would not be easy for the Qing Eliminating Society to go to the scene to investigate and collect evidence after the investigation is completed!”With that said, Porter added, “I feel that there are only two clues that the Qing Eliminating Society would be able to find. Firstly, they will find a way to sneak into the ruins of the copper mine, or they will try to find a way to bribe the officials from Cyprus to obtain the remaining close-defense missiles’ artillery shells from the copper mine. If they are fortunate and hardworking, they might be able to obtain the DNA of the great earl from the soil in the collapsed area. The latter will allow them to be certai

The strange thing was that when he tried to contact Troy using the specially dedicated phone line which could be dialed at any time twenty-four hours a day in the past, it could not be connected at all. This kind of thing had never happened before over the past twenty years. Thus, this abnormal situation caused Arlo to feel very nervous. He tried to contact Brody but could not get through to Brody’s cell phone either. He suddenly had an ominous premonition at this point. However, due to the special structural framework of the Qing Eliminating Society, he had no other subordinates in Cyprus whom he could contact directly aside from the Section Ambassador, Troy. Therefore, the best way was for him to send someone to Cyprus to inquire about the situation. The best person to go and inquire was the special envoy from the copper refinery in Turkey. After all, Turkey was very close to Cyprus, and it would not take long for a helicopter to fly there.However, Brody was one of the four g

“What did you say?!” The British Lord’s voice suddenly rose an octave as he asked incredulously, “What’s wrong with him? I asked him to carry out a mission, but he actually lost contact with you?!”Arlo hurriedly said, “British Lord, it might not be Mr. Jothurn who lost contact with us on his own initiative because… because…”The British Lord asked coldly, “What’s the reason? If you hesitate to speak again from now on, you will cut out your tongue yourself!”Arlo trembled with fear and hurriedly said, “British Lord, Troy Nimbleton, the Section Ambassador of Cyprus, cannot be contacted either. We’ve also lost contact with the alternative Section Ambassador that we placed next to him…”After saying that, Arlo continued speaking, “According to normal circumstances, both Troy and the alternative Section Ambassador have to ensure smooth communication twenty-four hours a day. This is the most basic requirement… especially for the alternative Section Ambassador who has a special contact m

The other antique traders who were keeping tabs on the situation were left confused by Trippy's message.[Maybe even those out-of-towners know that Raymond is a sucker? So they traveled overnight just to see what happens?][I know Raymond is in trouble, but is it really worth traveling hundreds of miles just to watch?][Maybe they know he's a sucker, so they came to sell him more counterfeits?][Shit, that must be it! Suckers are rare these days, after all!][Damn straight! Just knowing that there's one in Aurous Hill, you'd be eager to come over.]Even Mick Crane who had just woken up and saw the message immediately sent a voice message: "Those conmen are just like flies flocking around shit as soon as they smell it.""Oh, but what they don't know is that Raymond has no more money! I heard he only had a few hundred thousand for the startup, and the bronze sculpture must have cost most of it. I'm afraid those people won't even get their gas money and toll costs back after travel

Trippy rolled his eyes as he texted back: [Hell no. I need to start my business instead of wasting my time. You morons can come get a number yourself if you like. Haha!]Still, Trippy had just sent his text when a trio arrived in a hurry outside Treasure Measure.Seeing that the doors were closed, the leader asked Trippy, "Excuse me, can I ask if this is Treasure Measure? Owned by a man named Mr. Cole?"Trippy was at once surprised. "You mean Raymond Cole?"The leader quickly said, "We don't know his first name, only that his last name is Cole, and his handle name was Treasure Measure's Mr. Cole."Trippy chuckled. "That'd be him. Has to be, since he hand wrote that shop sign."Pausing, he then asked in curiosity, "So, you've come to see him being a sucker?"The leader was naturally curious as to what Trippy was talking about. However, he was also reluctant to reveal why he had come since there was a killer bargain at stake. In fact, every other collector who was coming was k

Raymond also added that the 20 million price tag wouldn't be cut or increased. To put it simply, the bronze sculpture was right there in Aurous Hill and waiting—it was a race.Hence, many reputable collectors contacted expert appraisers throughout the night, some even booking night flights straight to Aurous Hill.The best amongst them was a fanatic collector of bronze items in Eastcliff.Following a brief exchange with Raymond online, he immediately called an expert who was also a close friend. As soon as his call was answered, he asked the other man if he had time to travel to Aurous Hill so that no one else would beat them to it—and they would drive out in the night if at all possible.After all, the earliest flight was at six in the morning, and it'd be eight by the time they made it to Aurous Hill Airport and nine by the time they got to Antique Street in a cab.Therefore, the ideal way to get there was by driving over six hundred miles at top speed, and that meant reaching A

While Jacob was feeling delighted after pulling off his con, Raymond had posted details of the bronze sculpture online.The website he was using was the biggest platform for antique collectors and the antique trade where each user could set a favorite tag in the antique category and era. If a user who preferred canvas art pieces of the Tudor dynasty set that label as their favorite, they would immediately be notified with text or desktop notifications in regards to any item with the same label.As medieval bronze sculptures were rare in the first place, most who were interested had already set that label on their favorites and were immediately notified soon after Raymond posted pictures of the bronze sculpture online.The collectors were naturally eager to check it out as gilded sculptures of the medieval era were really rare, and most collectors would go a lifetime without picking one up for their collection.On top of that, the seller had even listed a major flaw and was only ask

"Nope," Jacob chuckled. "We were both working separately and just happened to get back in at the same time."Then, he immediately became smug and excited, "Guess what, dear? I made 200 thousand out of the deal! In net profits!""For real?!" Elaine gaped. "200 thousand in just one night?! That's amazing! How did you do that?"Claire was surprised to hear that too, and she came over to ask, "What deal was it, Dad?"Jacob grinned, "Oh, it's nothing to brag about. It's just that I managed to pick up a nice antique item thanks to my wisdom and then sold it for 200 thousand."Pausing, he then sighed in dismay, "However, the buyer wasn't too rich—I would have squeezed him for 400 thousand, but he couldn't afford more, so I had to settle for less."Elaine quickly exclaimed, "Shit, we're talking about a loss of 200 thousand! People would work a year and still never earn that much…"She trailed off for a moment before asking, "By the way, dear—are we still flying out first thing tomorrow?

Jacob laughed. "Put that issue behind us? Sure, but we're not becoming friends. Hell, I can't even hold a grudge now that you're shit out of luck."Then, his tone changed sharply and suddenly became icy, "But you see, Aurous Hill is not a place you can stay just because you want to. No… After this, you're not going to be able to make a living in the antique trade.""If I were you, I'd be running a thousand miles away, far away from Aurous Hill where no one would know my face to start over. That way, you just might be able to make a living."Raymond simply kept smiling, "You need not be concerned about how I'm going to survive here, Mr. Wilson. I'd be very grateful if you'd cease any form of harassment once you leave my premises."Jacob pursed his lips, staring at Raymond in disappointment. "I'm plenty magnanimous, so I won't stoop to such pettiness. Just do whatever you like!"Clicking his tongue, he huffed, "Tut, tut… And here I'd thought you're tough, but you're just yet another

Raymond chuckled at the title, humble as ever, "The Duke of Wastage? Now, that's quite the royal title, and I don't think I deserve such an honor…"Trailing off, he then made an especially curious look, "By the way, how'd you know they were calling me that?"Seeing that he was still so ignorant, Jacob scoffed. "You bought a Renaissance-era bronze sculpture earlier, didn't you?"Raymond nodded. "I did. But technically, it's medieval and not Renaissance, along with a Renaissance-era base."Jacob clutched his stomach as he laughed, "Oh, please! Medieval? Hahaha… You're killing me, Mr. Cole!"Raymond kept a serious look on his face. "It's really medieval. Why don't you take a look?""No way," Jacob snorted, pursing his lips. "Anyway, word has already spread that someone was selling a counterfeit bronze sculpture to defraud Antique Street for some serious dough. He went first to Vintage Deluxe, but their manager, Mr. Crane, saw through it and didn't buy it… and then he came to you, an

That was why most of the collectors only knew that such an item existed but they did not know in whose possession it was.After registering a new account and paying the ten thousand registration fee, Raymond got in.It was very safe as it was anonymous, and he posted a photo of the bronze sculpture and an announcement with an asking price of twenty million.In his opinion, it wasn't that expensive—if it was still gilded, it would be worth around a hundred million. Without it, it was plenty reasonable to cut the price down to just thirty million.And Raymond was cutting another ten million off that, so twenty million was plenty reasonable.Moreover, medieval bronze sculptures were exceedingly rare, and less than one specimen showed up annually at times. Collectors who desired it would therefore be willing to break the bank for it, and that was why Raymond was sure that someone would put in an order once he posted it.As he wrote the summary of the item, someone knocked on his door

Jacob frowned in disdain. "Why would I be worried? He's no longer the manager of Vintage Deluxe, and he just lost a shit ton of money for messing up his appraisal. I am also the vice president of the Calligraphy and Painting Association, so why would I be worried about some loser who will soon be kicked out of Antique Street?"Straightening his collar, he snorted coldly, "I am now going to see Raymond Cole and humiliate him face-to-face! He thinks he's impressive, doesn't he? Let's see how he will keep up that facade!"Zachary chuckled, "Yes, exactly! People like him need to be given a slap in the face! As hard as you can! Don't worry—I'll be right behind you. If he gets physical, I'll rush in to help. If he doesn't dare to start a fight, you just insult him as much as possible!""Good plan!" Jacob nodded since he was concerned that Raymond might get physical when pushed too far.And with his body, there was no way he could beat anyone…Spreading his arms, he exclaimed, "Come! I'l
