Charlie stepped into the narrow elevator with Bruce following close behind. The control panel in the elevator only had one green button. Bruce pressed the button and explained, "If someone is at the bottom, press this button to go up. If someone is at the top, press this button to go down. You can't stop in the middle." Charlie nodded. As the elevator started moving down, he looked at Bruce and asked, "How deep is it down here?" "60 meters," Bruce answered. Charlie asked curiously, "How did you secretly dig such a deep elevator shaft?" Bruce detailed, "Although Brooklyn Prison is a federal prison, it has long been controlled by the Rothschild family. A few years ago, they donated a sum of money to renovate the prison. In fact, the money was mainly used to build this elevator shaft and underground fortifications." He paused for a second and continued, "From the looks of it, there is only one access, but there is a one-way underground access that can be opened from the outsid

The room was about 20 square meters. There was an open space of about 7 square meters outside the room without any furniture or objects. There was only a toilet and a faucet with a small stream of water running inside. A man with a full beard and disheveled hair covering half his face was sitting crookedly on the toilet. A solid metal collar was placed around his neck. Behind the collar was an iron chain as thick as a thumb. The length of the iron chain was short enough that he could not reach the open space no matter what. He could only be confined to the corner of the room. The floor was damp and cold. There was no place to sit or lie down. There was not even a straw mat, let alone a mattress. The harsh environment had caused the man to curl up on the toilet to sleep with great difficulty. At this moment, the man heard the commotion and raised his head weakly. As he and Charlie exchanged glances, his eyes widened in utter shock as if he had been struck by lightning, and his who

Charlie urged without hesitation, "Let's go outside and talk!" "No..." Raymond shook his head and insisted, "We'll talk here."He pointed at Bruce, who was standing there dazed, and assured, "He's the only one who came here recently. Since you've controlled him, we are absolutely safe for now. I need to explain something to you right now." Charlie hesitated for a moment before nodding lightly. "Alright. Let me heal you first, then we'll talk." With that, he placed his fingers on Raymond's meridian and transferred some Reiki into the latter’s body. The Reiki restored and greatly improved Raymond’s physical condition. Raymond gasped in surprise, feeling the healing power within him, "It seems that you have mastered the Apocalyptic Book. Your father would be very pleased." Since Raymond was getting better, Charlie told Bruce to stand guard outside the room, and he and Raymond sat on the floor. Raymond started, "What do you want to know? Just ask, and I'll answer you." Charl

"Yes." Raymond nodded. "The unofficial history I read recorded that when Huang Chao started the rebellion, he was lucky enough to be assisted by a master who located and obtained the Four-Sided Treasure Tower. Huang Chao failed to succeed as an emperor despite the help of the treasure tower. As a result, the tower fell into the hands of Zhu Wen. “However, the tower couldn't play its true role as Zhu Wen didn't have talented people who studied the Book of Changes. Since then, the whereabouts of the tower have been unknown." Raymond paused for a moment before continuing, "The tower resurfaced several hundred years later in the hands of Nurhaci. According to the legend, Nurhaci was blessed by the tower. The nation's fortunes soared. It coincided with the decline of the Ming Dynasty and continued to grow stronger. Then, the country entered the Qing Dynasty, and they finally successfully conquered the land." Charlie asked, intrigued, "In that case, the tower must have been a national

Charlie finally knew the whole story of Raymond's imprisonment in Brooklyn Prison. He sighed lightly. "I was skeptical at first. With the Rothschild family's power, if you had really stolen from them, they would not have to settle it through legal means. It turned out that you called the police and surrendered." "That's right." Raymond nodded and lamented helplessly, "In this country, even though the family is powerful enough to override the law, they do not want to cause public anger. I did indeed steal from them, but since I turned myself in, the case must go through the legal process.” "In this case, they cannot take me away directly. After all, I'm famous in antique dealing, and I know people. If they arrest and torture me and the news gets out, the police will suffer the humiliation. "So, the family can only settle for the second best option and let the court do their things and imprison me. However, no matter how badly they torture me, they can't kill me because I was onl

Touched by Raymond's patriotism, Charlie nodded and promised, "Don't worry. I'll bring the treasure tower back to Oskia. You have my word. I happen to know someone who has quite a diverse network. I can bring back the treasure tower through him." The person Charlie was talking about was Emmett, Vera's adopted son. He had no right to keep the treasure tower since it was a national treasure. Returning it to Oskia through Emmett was the right thing to do to honor the treasure. Excited to hear this, Raymond beamed, "Thank you, Mr. Wade. I can call it even after the treasure has returned to Oskia and I serve my fifteen-year sentence." Charlie cleared his throat and said in a solemn tone, "The British and the Rothschild family have looted so many historical relics from China. They belong to Oskia no matter how hundreds and thousands of years have passed, and that's the truth. Sooner or later, they will all be returned to Oskia. I won't let you stay in this hellhole for fifteen years.

Raymond's passion was so intense it overwhelmed Charlie. Truth be told, Charlie's father had already predicted and planned everything for him. At that moment, Raymond's eyes were filled with heightened excitement as he continued, "I've been waiting for the day when you were ready to rise from the abyss ever since your parents passed away. I've been waiting for twenty years!" "Old Master Lennard went to Eastcliff about five years ago. He departed from the United States, and I happened to be in the States as well. When he took off from Los Angeles in your family's private jet, I stood by the fence at the end of the airport runway and watched the plane fly into the sky. "At that moment, I knew that the moment when you reached the fate of the dragon would come soon!" "After arriving in Eastcliff, he spent several years and used his lifetime's knowledge to finally solve the dilemma of the dragon-stranding predicament in Mount Wintry. I was so excited when I heard the news, I could

"But why?" Charlie asked, bewildered. "How could my father, who was much better than me, not have the fate of the ascending dragon? Why me? An orphan who lost his parents at the age of eight and a loser who was a laughingstock in Aurous Hill! Why? I don't get it..." With a long sigh, Raymond lamented with a tearful hint, "Oh, Mr. Wade... You have no idea what the fate of the ascending dragon means. It isn't a fate that people are born with, but a fate that is changed artificially. Your father had the fate of the dragon, and your highest destiny is a dragon. To become an ascending dragon, you need the combination of two dragons..." As he spoke of this, Raymond choked up, tears flooding his eyes, "The reason you have the fate of the ascending dragon is because your father took away his destiny and gave it to you! "That combines with your own fate of the dragon, and you eventually acquired the fate of the ascending dragon!" "What? W-What did you just say?!" Charlie's heart skipp

"Alright!" Trippy was at once fawning, tagging along behind Raymond like a little child.Around thirty people were waiting in front of Treasure Measure by now. The collectors came in twos or threes, and all ten numbers had since been taken.Before Raymond arrived, he had a brief look at the collectors' faces through the security cameras before walking over, and he was really relieved to see no familiar faces.Having traded Oskian antiques for years abroad, it was only natural that he was acquainted with some of the elite collectors in the country.He also knew that they were especially demanding with the quality of their collection and wanted almost flawless items. As such, the bronze sculpture which had been completely lost wouldn't interest them.Still, he was also a little concerned that amongst the elite collectors he knew, there might be some who were losing money and losing purchasing power in turn. If they happened to take an interest in the bronze sculpture on top of that,

Trippy grinned. "I mean, just look at my stall—ain't no way I'm getting any business here. Why not let me check out this item of yours? And see how interested they are? I'm really interested in learning and upping my game."Then, as if worried that Raymond would refuse, he quickly added, "Don't worry—I promise to stay in a corner and just watch."Still, Raymond could guess right then that someone must have sent Trippy to spy on him.It didn't matter whether it was Mick, Jacob, or Zachary either—they were all in this plot together, and one knowing meant all three knowing.Trippy was a gossiper in nature. If he was allowed to witness the whole process, everyone down Antique Street would definitely know before long.In fact, he could use someone like that right now, and Trippy had come straight to his doorstep.With that in mind, Raymond smiled, "Come join me if you're interested. It's not like there's anything to hide…"Pausing, he then warned Trippy, "But since you're going in my

After watching Mick's video, Jasmine's opinion of the man improved considerably.She was actually well aware that the decline of Vintage Deluxe was mostly due to Mick's incompetence.However, as Jasmine was now managing a billion-dollar company, she couldn't spare any time to ask many questions about Vintage Deluxe's performance. In her opinion, as long as Vintage Deluxe didn't lose too much money or ruin the reputation they had worked so hard to build, she wasn't interested in a regime change.It was the same mindset as Marianne Long, who begged her father to keep that lane full of food stalls in Hong Kong over sentiment.As such, seeing that Mick actually had some skill pleased her considerably.She couldn't resist checking out the comments of the video too.She saw that many were praising the manager of Vintage Deluxe for taking a tough stand against the scammer as well as how Vintage Deluxe's reputation was long-standing and without comparison.She soon noticed Jacob's comme

Soon, more collectors had gathered outside Treasure Measure even before Raymond showed up at Antique Street, with over ten of them gathered outside in no time at all.Since Raymond had only prepared ten slips, the rest left in disappointment seeing that they had no chance.Even so, the ten collectors who had gotten a number were nervous—save for the first man who had arrived.The details on the online sales post insisted that the price was fixed, and that first-come first-serve applies.If he bought the bronze sculpture, the other nine would have come all this way for nothing.However, if the seller decided to make it an auction, they would have a chance too, although their net profit would thin in turn. After all, they could have acquired the bronze sculpture for just 20 million, and that meant a solid 8 million in profit.An auction would at least raise the price to 27 million, and more would make it chicken feed.If they gave up at that point, it was a waste of a trip.If

Trippy naturally wasn't going to tell Mick everything word-for-word, so he said vaguely, "Uh, they were just being stubborn and refused to listen to anything I said. They kept saying that they wouldn't know until they saw the actual item."Mick got out of bed, staring at his phone as he mused to himself.This was getting a little ridiculous, was it not? A fool who was scammed, actually able to scam someone else? But if he really could sell it, wouldn't all their work be for nothing?With that in mind, he promptly called Zachary, who wasn't even up yet.Ever since he had started working for Don Albert, his daily routine was no longer the same as the days when he was a humble stall owner working on Antique Street, but a man of importance who slept late and woke up late.In the evening, he would be spending his time patrolling Don Albert's night entertainment properties as well as holding meetings with subordinates to decide on management policies and the like. That was why he wo

Seeing that Mick had a favor to ask, Trippy was naturally eager to seize the opportunity to get in his good graces."Don't worry, Mr. Crane!" He promptly replied. "Just leave it to me!"Returning to Treasure Measure, he went up to the first man who had come and said, "Hey, brother… Did you come to buy the bronze sculpture from Mr. Cole?"The man asked warily, "You know about the bronze sculpture?""Of course!" Trippy grinned. "I know all too well—it's actually famous here in Aurous Hill."Whipping out his phone, he played the short video that Mick had spent five grand promoting, saying, "Here—check this out!"Curious, the man took the phone and watched the video solemnly.The other latecomer soon hurried over as well and stared fixedly at the screen too.They watched as Bill entered a room with the bronze sculpture with Mick, the latter who checked it out and started commenting on it.The first man exclaimed in surprise, "Oh, it really is that bronze sculpture."The second ma

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
