Chapter 1480

Kelsey was right. If the Hall of the Underworld really wanted to seek revenge, the first to bear the brunt

would certainly be the ones present here tonight.

Since Philip could even mobilize a battle squad, he would not be afraid of them.

However, they were not the same. They were just some affluent families from a city or region.

They might be respected in the country, but on a global scale, especially in the West, the gap was

really too big.

Silence.

The atmosphere was a little somber now.

Wilbur Ellis quickly stepped out at this time and said with a smile, “Well then, the next program is our

main event. Everyone is gathered here tonight for that item, right? Shall we start now?”

It seemed like a question but Wilbur had already snapped his fingers.

Instantly, all the main lights in the side hall were turned off, leaving a dim lamp in the middle of the jade

round table.

Everyone was staring intently at the center of the round table.

They had almost forgotten about the important event tonight.

Everyone waited with bated breath.

Kelsey and Sheryl also stared nervously at the beam of light in the center of the round table.

Philip just frowned slightly. What on earth could have brought Kelsey and Sheryl here?

Even people from the Hall of the Underworld had turned up.

Immediately after, the small round platform in the center of the round table slowly sank as everyone

watched. An ancient wooden box rose from the bottom. The box was carved with dragons and

phoenixes, looking very exquisite. It had a light fragrance to it. There was also a design of golden

floating clouds on the four corners of the wooden box, which was likely made of pure gold.

Everyone glanced at each other and seemed very impatient.

“Mr. Ellis, what’s inside it? You’ve never revealed it before. Can you tell us about it now?” someone

asked.

Wilbur stood on one side with a mysterious smile, saying, “A key.”

A key?

Others did not quite understand it, but Kelsey and Sheryl looked suffocated. Their eyes revealed

extraordinary enthusiasm and excitement!

“A key? What key? Is it a hidden treasure?” Sigmund asked skeptically.

“Mr. Ellis, stop joking with us. We came all the way here expecting a rare treasure, but you’re telling us

that it’s a key? What can it do? Is it really a treasure?”

Ingram Jordan also said.

Wilbur smiled and said, “Not really. This key is only known to people who know its worth. I can only tell

you that this item is priceless. Getting your hands on this is tantamount to getting a treasure trove.

Even if you’re penniless, you can immediately become a billionaire. If you have tens of billions of

assets, you can multiply it by several times in the next few years.”

Hearing Wilbur’s words, even those who were not initially interested perked up.

“What are we waiting for, then? Open it and let us have a look,” someone urged.

However, Kelsey said nonchalantly at this time, “I’ll take this item. 100 million dollars!”

Hiss!

Everyone turned to Kelsey. This was too exaggerated. Was he bidding 100 million dollars for this item

without even looking at it?

However, what made everyone more alarmed was still to come.

Sheryl parted her red lips and said delicately, “I’ll offer 200 million dollars, plus a Larson family’s

enterprise in Uppercreek. In total, it’s worth 500 million dollars!”
