BXBX NOVEL Chapter 171 - All Parties Involved
Boom! Boom! Boom!
The several spear-shaped chandeliers struck the ground with force like war drums, sending slight vibrations along the surface.
"It wasn\'t aiming for…us?" A Lv.28 Hunter muttered.
Rumble!
The chandeliers rotated and drilled through the ground. Soon, it disappeared into the floor below, leaving sizable holes in their wake.
"Who dares to cause trouble at my Abestel family\'s event?!" Fritz Abestel roared.
He shot to his feet with an abrupt change in expression. The holes in the floor left him with a foreboding feeling.
\'The plan is going to be exposed!\' He thought.
At the same time, the numerous guests of the lower floor began searching around, even taking glances up at the VIP booths with doubt.
"Which master is playing a prank on us?!"
"Is this a game to you?! Are you looking down on us?!"
The guests on the lower floor began throwing accusative glances at the wealthy families on the higher floor\'s VIP booths while the calmer guests began analyzing the attack.
"That was telekinesis or metallokinesis just now, wasn\'t it?"
"The ability was not weak. It should be around B-rank or higher!"
While the people within the auction room were still making blind guesses behind the reason for the attack, an open suitcase flew out of the hole.
The content within was revealed for all to see.
"What! Is that a bomb?!"
"Why is there a bomb here?!"
The people were immediately alarmed to see the timer was already ticking.
However, the timer showed more than fifty minutes remaining. The guests were immediately relieved.
"F*ck, this was a goddamn trap! The Abestel family is so bold!"
"F*ck you, Fritz Abestel! How dare you set up!"
The guests were enraged after learning the Abestel family\'s plan as they shot up to their seats. Even the wealthy families within the VIP boots did not remain seated.
"The Abestel family wants to swallow the skies of Silvercove? How ambitious!" Gavino Vinci snarled from the third VIP booth.
If not for the unnamed hero revealing the Abestel family\'s scheme, he would not have even known how he died!
"Listen up, members of my Vinci family! Abestel family has waved the banners of war against our family! I want you to kill them all on sight!"
"Wait! The Abestel family is not involved in this!" Fritz Abestel immediately made his excuse in desperation.
"Save your excuses! My Newman family will also be at war with your family!" Godfrey Newman roared and ordered, "I want the Abestel family dead!"
"So does my Cui family!"
"And my Qiu family!"
"My Gu family as well!"
One by one, the powerful families attending the auction all voiced their stance and laid down their orders without bothering to validating the truth behind the matter.
Regardless of the truth, it was an opportunity for all families to unite and get rid of one less competitor.
"This must be the work of the Otaku Terrorists! You all must listen to me!"
"Ptui! Do you think anyone will believe that?! You, as the host of the event, can\'t even keep the venue secured? I don\'t believe it!"
"I don\'t believe it either! Even if the bombs are the work of the Otaku Terrorists, the Abestel family must be working with them!"
"F*ckers!" Fritz Abestel frowned.
No matter what he says, no one bothered to listen to him. They were hell-bent on destroying him and his family.
"Boss, what should we do?" a subordinate asked beside him.
"What else is there to do? We have already planned for the chance of failure! We\'re executing Plan B!" Fritz Abestel stated.
Boom!
"What is the meaning of this, Mr. Fritz?" Stefano Metti immediately barged into the VIP booth with hurried steps and questioned him, "Did you plan to throw away my Metti group from the start, even though we submitted to you?!"
"You\'re just a dog! What right do you have to question the master?!" Fritz Abestel barked.
His eyes quickly shone with a ruthless glint before he decided to take his anger out on Stefano Metti.
Puchi!
Suddenly, Fritz Abestel\'s hand drove straight into Stefano Metti\'s heart in a quick flash before the person could react.
"You…"
Stefano Metti\'s steadily lost his strength and drew his last breath, dying with regret and grievance for choosing the wrong family.
Fritz Abestel tossed Stefano Metti\'s body to the side before flicking his wrist, scattering all the blood from his hand to the ground indifferently.
…
Meanwhile, the other families did not immediately take action against the Abestel family and Metti group, who were regarded as enemies.
Important matters had to be resolved first.
"Quickly locate all the bombs hidden in the area and have them defused immediately!" Gavino Vinci commanded with a wave of his hand.
"Yes, Young Master!"
Swoosh, swoosh, swoosh~!
The various high-level Hunters from other families also received similar orders before they swiftly dived into the open holes like blurred shadows.
At the same time, another group shot for the suitcase under Albion\'s control.
However, the suitcase flew away from their grasps before hurling at a corner of the ceiling under Albion\'s will.
\'Explode!\'
Albion snapped his fingers.
Boom!
The corner of the building was immediately torn apart by the force of the explosion! Scattered pieces of broken stones and wood went flying amidst the eruption of quickly spreading flames!
"Take cover!" A person immediately cried.
Everyone immediately utilized their special abilities in their best efforts to conjure a last-second defense.
Nevertheless, they were all sent flying by the impact force!
"Dammit! Locate the Telekinetic-user and restrain him! He might not necessarily be on our side and just wants to stir the chaos!" A furious hunter shouted after wiping a trace of blood on his lips.
\'So sharp?\' Albion was surprised.
…
"Wait!"
At the sight of the auction house\'s corner exploding, Mr. Reiner immediately raised a hand to halt his men.
"Sir, it seems there other parties with the same intention as us!" A thug commented before asking, "What should we do now?"
"It doesn\'t matter. Continue with the plan!" Mr. Reiner ordered.
However, at that moment, a stray bullet flew over from the auction house\'s direction and grazed his cheeks, causing his expression to turn stiff with alarm.
